Chapter 2222 The Zipper of the Dress (3)
Luo Xiaoxi took Su Yicheng into the villa. There were many guests at tonight's reception, all of whom were important figures in the business world.
Su Yicheng took Luo Xiaoxi to the buffet area, "Eat something, and when you're tired, go sit there for a while."
"It's inconvenient for me to be pregnant, why are you no longer interested in these occasions?" Luo Xiaoxi asked funnyly.
Su Yicheng came back with her favorite dessert, "Now that I have you and a baby, I just want to spend all my time with you."
Luo Xiaoxi smiled. Even though she was pregnant, the dress still looked exquisite on her body.
Luo Xiaoxi turned around and saw Su Jianan and Lu Boyan not far away.
Their arrival was low-key and sudden, but many people still recognized them. Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun were also nearby. Xiao Yunyun wore flat shoes to cover up her foot injury.
When Tang Tiantian and Wells went to find Xiao Yunyun, she turned her head inadvertently, and a person suddenly appeared in her sight.
Tang Tiantian gently pulled Wells' arm, "How was your stepmother that day?"
Wells frowned slightly, "Why mention her?"
"I saw her."
Wells followed Tang Tiantian's gaze and saw Emily appearing at the other end of the villa hall.
She stood there gracefully, wearing an exquisite dress and a soft mink fur shawl on her shoulders.
Emily soon saw Tang Tiantian, and Wells took Tang Tiantian in their original direction.
Emily followed and blocked the way for the two of them, "Wells, did you see that I forgot even the most basic etiquette?"
"Really?" Wells' expression was indifferent, and he didn't even take Emily into consideration.
Emily's face changed slightly.
Tang Tiantian saw the injured side of Emily's face, "Mrs. Charlie, the injury on your face is not fully healed, why did you come out?"
Tang Tiantian was standing next to Wells in a beautiful little dress. The two of them were incomparably matched. No matter how exquisite the clothes others put on, they might not be able to match Tang Tiantian's delicate little face.
Emily looked at Tang Tiantian with sarcasm in her eyes, "Miss Tang, an ordinary person, has now become a phoenix thanks to Wells."
"What's wrong with being ordinary?" Tang Tiantian asked openly, "I work hard and live an active life. Compared to harming others everywhere, why am I so shameless?"
When Xiao Yunyun heard the voices here, her expression changed slightly, and Lu Boyan and Su Jianan also looked over.
Xiao Yunyun came over immediately.
"Is this the stepmother of the Duke of Wales?" Xiao Yunyun looked at Emily appropriately.
"Where are you from?" Emily glanced lightly.
"It's better to see it than to hear it after hearing it for a long time. Mrs. Charlie's taste is really unique." Xiao Yunyun's words were both thorny and not thorny, which made Emily's face change.
Shen Yuechuan walked up to Xiao Yunyun, and Emily looked familiar to this man.
Emily looked again and saw Lu Boyan and Su Jianan walking over together.
Emily saw a couple standing not far behind them. Musijue held a wine glass and touched Xu Youning lightly. Xu Youning took a sip of champagne, and Musijue looked this way.
The man's eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion. The bone-chilling chill reminded Emily of the man who nearly killed her one night not long ago.
Emily looked at the people in front of her, her heart changed slightly, and she said coldly, "Miss Tang has brought so many friends over, is this how you treat guests?"
Lu Boyan curled his lower lip, "Today is a banquet hosted by the Fu family. If Mrs. Charlie is dissatisfied with anything, she can go to the Fu family.
"
Su Jianan looked at Emily with a smile, "I wonder what business Mrs. Charlie came to City A and City B this time for?"
"My stepson went to City A to pursue his women. Naturally, I wanted to come and see if those women were qualified. The Wells family has strict rules. It's okay for him to fall in love with a woman, but not all kinds of women can be brought into the house. .”
The woman Emily talked about was not only Tang Tiantian, but also Diana. Su Jianan also heard this.
Xiao Yunyun frowned, Su Jianan looked at Emily, and said in the usual tone, "It seems that the Duke of Wales's family rules have very high requirements for married wives. So, Dr. Tang's character is definitely worthy of it." As good as the Duke of Wales."
Emily is Wells' stepmother, and Wells' father remarried, which she has never shied away from. Now that she heard Su Jianan's words, Emily's face changed slightly.
Everyone knows that she got her current status after marrying the old Duke, who was decades older than her.
Su Jianan looked at Emily. She didn't like Diana at all. The friend of the enemy was the enemy. Su Jianan doesn't need to give face to people she doesn't like, and she doesn't need to pretend to like them.
The host of the banquet came to the living room, and Shen Yuechuan reminded Lu Boyan by his side, "Director Fu is here."
Lu Boyan saw Fu Dong coming down from the second floor and took Su Jianan over to greet him.
Tang Tiantian and Wells stayed where they were. Emily looked at Wells, her face darkened, "I'm not here to quarrel with you today."
"What's the purpose of your coming?" Wells looked sideways and coldly.
"Wells, I told you before that you can either listen to me, or you can only listen to your father's arrangements and return to Country Y." Emily habitually showed an arrogant attitude.
Wells sneered, "You only forgot one thing."
"What's the matter?" Nothing in the world can stop Emily.
Wells looked at the wife his father married and said, "I want to give you face. You are my father's wife. If I don't give you face, you are nothing."
Emily's expression suddenly changed, and her whole body was shaken. Wells stepped forward and held Tang Tiantian's hand, and took Tang Tiantian away.
Su Yicheng and Lu Boyan said a few words to Fu Dong, and Fu Dong went to meet other guests.
Mu Sijue came next to them, and Lu Boyan turned around to see him, "How is it?"
Mu Sijue's eyes fell on Shen Yuechuan, "What do you think?"
"That Mrs. Charlie is very similar to the person who shot that day." Shen Yuechuan just observed carefully at a close distance and made a judgment.
"But I don't know if this lady has any gunshot wounds." Su Yicheng looked at them and said.
Lu Boyan took a sip of red wine and said, "It's not easy to get close to Mrs. Charlie."
"Yes, I heard that she has a very hot temper." Shen Yuechuan shook his head.
In fact, there is no need to hear it at all. Just looking at her attitude towards Tang Tiantian just now, you can tell that she has never given anyone a good look.
"Can such a person stay with the old Duke of Wales for a long time?" Shen Yuechuan was surprised.
The old Duke of Wales was a thoughtful man who was once brilliant in the business world of Country Y.
"Maybe he just likes Mrs. Charlie's appearance, or her arrogant character."
"But judging from her appearance, she doesn't look very good."
His temper is even worse.
On the other side, Tang Tiantian saw a woman with blond hair appearing next to Emily. The woman followed behind her at any time. She kept a serious smile and talked to Emily from time to time.
Tang Tiantian remembered seeing a few golden hairs in front of the hotel room yesterday.
Lu Boyan looked over there, "
You see, Mrs. Charlie is now accompanied by an assistant from Wells' father. "
"What did the Duke of Wales say about her?"
"You can think of this woman as Mrs. Charlie's bodyguard. She has good conduct and great skills."
"Looking at it this way, it's even harder to get close to him." Mu Sijue's tone didn't sound worried at all.
Lu Boyan curled his lips and said no more.
Mu Sijue put down his wine glass, and a waiter from the reception came beside him, "Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu is looking for you."
When Mu Sijue found Xu Youning, Xu Youning was eating snacks with Luo Xiaoxi and Xiao Yunyun.
Mu Sijue walked up to Xu Youning and placed his palms naturally on Xu Youning's waist.
Xiao Yunyun looked at their intimate gestures. They were husband and wife, which was quite normal, but Xiao Yunyun's face turned red again.
Luo Xiaoxi looked at the two people opposite her. Xu Youning was still the same as usual. She did not deliberately appear intimate with Mu Sijue. When she went out, it was Mu Sijue who wanted to pester her and get tired of her.
Today, Mu Sijue seemed to be more restrained than usual. Xu Youning had a glass of water in her hand because she wanted to try different desserts.
When Xu Youning walked aside, he accidentally stepped on the instep of Mu Sijue. When Luo Xiaoxi looked up, the water in Xu Youning's hand had already spilled on Mu Sijue's trousers.
Xu Youning lightly wiped his trousers. Xiao Yunyun wondered if she had seen it wrong. Xu Youning reached out and lightly swiped his hand on his thigh to remove the water stains, but his fingers seemed to have touched...
This is simply flirtatious!
The conscience of heaven and earth, Xiao Yunyun did not look at this intentionally.
Xu Youning wiped away the water stains and looked up at Mu Sijue, "Otherwise, go to the lounge and change."
Mu Sijue took Xu Youning's hand and said, "No need."
"What if it's wet? It's not comfortable to wear." Xu Youning insisted.
Mu Sijue shook his head, "It's okay, there's not much water."
"But if it's wet, you must feel it, right?"
Xiao Yunyun heard these serious words in her ears, and she felt like she was about to catch fire.
Luo Xiaoxi handed her a cup.
Xiao Yunyun took it and took a big sip, then realized that what she was drinking was red wine.
Xu Youning took Mu Sijue away, and Luo Xiaoxi and Xiao Yunyun went to find their two husbands. Xiao Yunyun saw Emily among the other guests at a glance.
"Mrs. Charlie." Xiao Yunyun stepped forward and held a glass of red wine.
Emily turned to look at her, "Is something wrong?"
"I was impulsive just now and said something I shouldn't have said. Mrs. Charlie is a guest from afar. I hope you don't mind."
Emily looked at Xiao Yunyun suspiciously, and Xiao Yunyun brought Emily a glass of wine.
Behind Xiao Yunyun, Luo Xiaoxi suddenly made an oops while holding her belly. The assistant beside Emily reacted very quickly and turned around to reach out to support her.
Luo Xiaoxi looked at her, "Thank you."
"You're pregnant alone, so be careful."
Luo Xiaoxi saw that the other person was a foreigner and could speak Chinese so fluently, "You speak Chinese really well."
"Thanks."
"I can't find my husband, can you help me find him?"
Tris saw Luo Xiaoxi standing helplessly in the crowd and couldn't refuse such a request.
Tris saw that Emily was still talking to someone, so she accompanied Luo Xiaoxi in another direction.
Emily did not accept Xiao Yunyun's drink, but Xiao Yunyun was ready to let go.
Emily temporarily regretted taking her hand back, but Xiao Yunyun couldn't hold it back. The wine glass in her hand fell down, and the red liquid spilled on Emily's shawl.
