In Long Xi’s understanding, Yan Kuan could bully Shen Xiaoxiao himself, but others could not?
No wonder Xiaoxiao would be with him in private. Such a man was indeed not worthy of being treated sincerely by Xiaoxiao. He should not have listened to the darned secret guard, and there was nothing wrong with waiting for Xiaoxiao to show up.
Meanwhile, Yan Kuan was also a little surprised when he saw the woman beside Long Xi. He thought that Shen Xiaoxiao had repeatedly rejected him because of Long Xi. He had originally thought that since Shen Xiaoxiao had not given him any face, she would openly cheat on him, and he did not have to worry about it. Otherwise, he would not have invited Nan Ya. He did not expect that there would be another beautiful woman beside Long Xi. Why? Was this a taboo, or was it a falling out?
Then who was Shen Xiaoxiao planning to attend with?
Of course, this was not the time to ask this question. There were so many reporters here, and there was also a banquet hall a foot away. Everyone was watching. Only an idiot would fight with Yan Kuan in this place.
Regardless of whether you were unhappy in your heart, you still had to put in the effort to save face.
“So it turns out that President Yan likes this type of celebrity. I had already felt that such a small celebrity was too boring. It’s fine if you’ve played with it, but I didn’t expect President Yan to like the other people’s leftovers. Your taste is pretty good. I don’t have any good ones left tomorrow. I’ll get someone to send them over to you.”
This was Long Xi sticking up for Shen Xiaoxiao. Those present were not fools, so they naturally understood. No matter how well-mannered Nan Ya was, she was still blushing from Long Xi’s words. Who asked her to go to a banquet with Long Xi before?
She wasn’t the daughter of some CEO or aristocratic family. She was just a celebrity. In everyone’s eyes, wasn’t a celebrity something that could be kept with just some money?
Now that Long Xi said this, didn’t everyone understand what he meant?
D*mn it, he actually humiliated her so much for a mere Shen Xiaoxiao. Just he wait. Later on, Shen Xiaoxiao would definitely be humiliated to her grandmother’s home.
“You don’t have to worry about me, President Long. But you’re not too slow at changing partners. What’s the matter? You’re even playing with a pair of finger gloves? What on earth does President Long have on his hand that’s so shameful? He can’t be a cripple, right?”
Shen Xiaoxiao stood in the distance and had two men argue with each other. She thought that it was quite fun, but no matter which one of them stood out, they were both dragons among men. Both parties were now full of vigor, and they looked like they were at daggers drawn. If not for the smiles on both of their faces, many people would have thought that the two of them would fight.
Such outstanding two people, one of them had a grand and steady aura, while the other had a calm and steady smile.
It was a very common sight for the two of them to look like this. However, the situation was not right.
“19, if you were to open a game and let the two of them fight, who do you hope to win?”
“Long Xi.”
Shen Xiaoxiao did not expect 19 to make such a choice. However, when she thought about how Long Xi was their boss, she felt a little relieved. 19 must have made this choice.
However, 19’s next words made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart tremble slightly.
He said, “Yan Kuan actually humiliated you like this. He knew that you were going to participate, yet he still brought a small celebrity here.”
“You, isn’t that great? I did save my breath when he brought a small celebrity here. I didn’t want to reject him later. There’s nothing to be angry about.”
“It’s just a matter of fact. He’s already a useless person.”
“Alright, let’s go in from the other side. Let’s avoid these two people. Be careful.”
“Actually, I shouldn’t have woken you up. It’s fine if you don’t attend this party. Why don’t we go back? It’s much more interesting to play with the two children than this.”
Shen Xiaoxiao knew that 19 felt sorry for her, but she had to attend this party because the Jiang family had already called and asked her. Jiang Haoran had personally invited her to talk about the latest land development case. Although the timing of this invitation was not right, it also reminded Shen Xiaoxiao of how many demons and monsters would appear tonight. All of them would appear at once, so there was no need to retreat, nor was there a need to retreat.
“Since we’re already here, let’s just take things as they come. There’s nothing to retreat. These people want to see me make a fool of myself, but they also want to see if they can make a fool of me and if they have the ability to do so.”
Ignoring the two people standing at the door, 19 and Shen Xiaoxiao went around the back and entered through another side door. All the reporters and the public’s eyes were on Long Xi and Yan Kuan, which made things more convenient for Shen Xiaoxiao and the others.
Almost all the people present had arrived. Of course, the host and the main character, Yan Kuan, were still at the door confronting each other, and most of their efforts were focused on the two of them. Except for Jiang Haoran, only a few people noticed that Shen Xiaoxiao had arrived.
“Xiaoxiao, why didn’t you watch the good show outside?”
Jiang Haoran was still talking and laughing cheerfully, not showing any peculiarity at all. Of course, such businessmen were used to putting on a show, so naturally, no one would see any dissatisfaction.
“The two of them entertaining the public is such a rare gesture. Of course, we have to watch. But after watching too much, there’s nothing strange about it. Why isn’t Chief Jiang watching the show with them?”
“Isn’t it the same as Xiaoxiao? After watching too much, there’s nothing exciting to talk about. Moreover, I purposely waited here for Xiaoxiao, hoping to have a word with her.”
Being so straightforward, Shen Xiaoxiao felt a little uncertain when she saw how Jiang Haoran was acting. However, she still nodded and followed Jiang Haoran into the VIP lounge with 19.
19 stood at the door like the people Jiang Haoran brought along. Only Shen Xiaoxiao and Jiang Haoran walked into the room.
After sitting down, Jiang Haoran put down the wine glass in his hand and took out a ring from his body. He handed it to Shen Xiaoxiao.
Shen Xiaoxiao took it and looked at it. The Obsidian Star?
If she had not concealed it well, if she had not known that this could not be the real Obsidian Star, she would have jumped up regardless of the occasion.
“Brother Jiang, what do you mean?”
“Xiaoxiao doesn’t need to be so guarded and so hostile. Keep this thing well. It looks 100% similar to the one in your hand. As for its function, I don’t know. Of course, I’m not going to know.”
Shen Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. What was Jiang Haoran going to do? Why did she not understand?
“When I leave this room, I’ll be Jiang Haoran and Xiaoxiao will be Shen Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao, do you understand what I mean? It’s a request from an old friend. Xiaoxiao, take care of yourself.”
After Jiang Haoran said that, he stood up and left. This made Shen Xiaoxiao confused. She held the ring in her hand and looked at it for a long time before she realized what he meant.
This meant that Jiang Haoran was a member of the Jiang family. He was neither Big Brother Jiang nor Yan Kuan’s good brother. This was a reminder to himself and also a reminder to herself. There was also this female version of the Obsidian Star. The props were all prepared…. From the looks of it, there was indeed a fierce battle tonight.
