Xi Wan knew that Su Xun saw her, so she pulled Lu Zhou out from behind the shelf.
It seemed that being tall was an advantage.
Wu Xing thought that her words were enough to cause conflict between Su Xun and Xi Wan. Lu Zhou was stuck in between and she felt like the two of them were going to have a big fight.
“Is what she said true?” Su Xun asked.
“I said those words.” Xi Wan said lightly, stretching out her index finger to draw circles on Su Xun’s chest. Her voice was hoarse and low, like a whisper, “Aren’t you scary?”
Su Xun seemed to have thought of something as his face suddenly turned red, all the way to his ears.
Wu Xing suspected that she had seen wrongly. She said in disbelief, “Mr. Su! Xi Wan admitted it herself just now. She’s spreading rumors and smearing your name!”
Xi Wan could not help but laugh out loud.
“What are you laughing at?” Wu Xing was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet.
She was clearly the one who had Xi Wan’s weakness. Why did it seem like she was the one who had done something wrong and was found out?
“Cousin.” Xi Wan turned back to look at Wu Xing and smiled sinisterly, “You should go and date. This is called fun.”
Su Xun’s face was even redder than before. Lu Zhou’s face was also red as she laughed.
However, Wu Xing missed the main point completely. “So, what if you’re married? Was he amazing? Who hasn’t been in love before? I’ve been in more relationships than you’ve eaten!”
However, as soon as she said this, Wu Xing realized that she was wrong. She gave people the impression that she was a promiscuous woman. However, the words were spoken, and even if they were to be salvaged, they could not be saved.
Therefore, she could only stand where she was in frustration. The fire of jealousy in her heart burned even more fiercely.
One day, she would think of a way to take everything from Xi Wan!
Su Xun said to Xi Wan, “Go in.”
She and Lu Zhou wanted to go in, so they followed Su Xun to the corridor on the second floor.
“I thought you came out to smoke,” Xi Wan said nonchalantly.
“I don’t smoke,” Su Xun replied after a pause.
“So, you came out to look for me?” Xi Wan asked again.
“Not really. I just came out to get some fresh air.”
“I see.” Xi Wan’s voice rose at the end of her sentence. There was no sadness or disappointment in her words.
But to Su Xun’s ears, it always sounded lonely.
Lu Zhou couldn’t stand this atmosphere anymore. She said, “I still have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“Take care. Be careful.” Xi Wan patted Lu Zhou’s shoulder and said, “I’m sorry for scaring you just now.”
“No, I just don’t want to be a third wheel here.” Lu Zhou blurted out and realized how inappropriate it was. She covered her face and staggered away.
Su Xun and Xi Wan were silent for a moment because of this but Xi Wan quickly said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll continue playing.”
“Alright, go ahead.”
After Su Xun said that, he remained standing where he was. Xi Wan walked past him and headed straight to the banquet hall on the second floor.
Actually, there wasn’t much to do at this time, but Xi Wan felt that the atmosphere was a little too awkwvard, so she wanted to escape. She took a glass of champagne from the waiter and prepared to sit in the corner and chat with the system.
However, someone stopped her, “Mrs. Su.”
Xi Wan turned around and realized that the person in front of her looked very familiar. She recalled carefully that this was Li Meng, who had been rumored to be having an affair with Su Xun some time ago.
So, she smiled in a friendly manner and even clinked glasses with Li Meng.
“Hello.”
Li Meng looked at Xi Wan and felt that as long as she pleaded with her, this matter might really be solved.
“Mrs. Su, you should already know about the hot searches on the Internet some time ago, right? I’m really sorry. I didn’t consider what I said. However, this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Su. Please don’t misunderstand.”
The reason why Li Meng said this was to show that she was giving Su Xun and Xi Wan’s marriage life her blessing. On the other hand, she could also express to Xi Wan that she would remove the hot searches for the sake of Su Xun’s reputation.
Killing two birds with one stone.
“Of course, I know that he has nothing to do with you.” Xi Wan said, “I didn’t misunderstand.”
Li Meng was speechless and said, “The netizens these days are really good at making groundless accusations. I only said a few simple words and they actually guessed this. It must have caused you and Mr. Su trouble, right?”
“It’s alright, there’s no trouble..”
