But since Adawang had been taken away by Tang Qiaoer, everyone's interest was somewhat dull.
Originally, Huo Zhaozhao dressed up in order to show off her talents in front of international superstars and satisfy her own vanity. But when ada left, she had nothing to sing, and all her preparations were in vain.
It’s all the fault of that insidious and cunning woman Tang Qiaoer!
Outside the banquet hall, Shen was shocked to see a tall and straight figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, as cold as an ice sculpture.
He stared closely at the direction in which the Crystal Goddess Rolls-Royce was driving away, breathing heavily and secretly clenching his fists.
"Mr. Shen, although I don't want to say it, it seems that we were plotted by Miss Tang this time."
Han Xian timidly wiped his sweat, "Now the hot search keywords are all related to ks, and our hot search is gone. And tonight, the fact that Miss Tang openly picked up ada has spread in the circle. , even the chairman knew about it.
Now... the outside world is questioning our Shen family, saying that we should not do porcelain work without diamonds, and questioning whether the overall level of our hotel has declined..."
Han Xian was already sweating profusely after talking about it.
The result that was already expected at this time, Tang Qiaoer took action, it was definitely an all-round three-dimensional encirclement and suppression, and never gave the opponent any chance to breathe.
Shen Jingjue stared at the taillights of the Rolls-Royce that had long been invisible, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Why did you change your words? Didn't you always call me madam and madam very attentively?"
Han Xian took a breath and said wiltedly: "If I don't bully you, I am the young lady... If I bully you... I am Miss Tang."
"It's just a title. If you want to be called, just call me."
Shen Jingjue took a breath and his eyes deepened, "What's more, I'm not very angry. This is how the eldest lady of the Tang family always behaves, isn't she?"
Han Xian was secretly shocked, had Mr. Shen ever fought with the young lady without gnashing his teeth? This time the quarrel was so big, how could he be so open-minded?
Is it...a hidden masochistic constitution?
"However, every guest must have an invitation letter to enter this dinner party, and the hotel is under strict security surveillance. How did Tang Qiaoer get in?" Shen Jingjue couldn't help but be curious.
"Um... I heard that there was a brief malfunction in the monitoring system before the young lady came in. However, our hotel network equipment was just overhauled a few days ago. It is impossible for it to break down so quickly, so I suspect there was a hacker attack or something. Got some kind of virus."
Hacker? Shen frowned in surprise.
Could it be that Tang Qiaoer also did this? Does she still have this ability?
Or, which of her brothers is "helping the evildoer" again?
"Second brother!"
The delicate and sweet call came over, disturbing Shen Jingjue's contemplation.
Hearing Huo Zhaozhao running towards her urgently, the man's eyebrows tightened and he didn't even feel like turning around to face her.
"This Tang Qiao'er is so outrageous! She actually dared to take Ada away in front of you. This is just like humiliating you. She doesn't take you seriously at all!" Huo Zhaozhao stamped his foot hard. , took the opportunity to complain crazily about Tang Qiaoer.
She knows very well that men are all about saving face, especially a man with such a high position as Shen Jingjue, who cannot tolerate anyone challenging his authority and making him lose face!
However, the next second, the man's words made her face suddenly turn pale.
"You met her the first day, so you don't know much about her yet. Miss Tang's eldest daughter is just such a person. She has never taken me seriously."
"Second brother, you, what did you say..."
"But so what, I don't care."
Shen Jingjue turned to look at Huo Zhaozhao coldly, with a hint of anger, "It's Miss Huo's behavior tonight that makes me very confused."
The three words "Miss Huo" were like three iron pestles piercing Huo Zhaozhao's heart so hard that she couldn't even move!
She's so estranged, her second brother is so... so estranged from her!
Does this mean you want to draw a clear line with her?!
"This is Shen's banquet, and I am present. No matter what, you should not be responsible for Shen's fault."
"But, second brother, I am also here to help you out!"
Huo Zhaozhao was so anxious that the sound of his voice almost sounded like a duck, and he hurriedly grabbed Shen Jingjue's arm, "Are you going to let that bad woman act wild at your banquet? Let her take your distinguished guest away. Let Shen become the laughing stock of Shengjing?!
She is so arrogant, why is she so arrogant? Just because she is your ex-wife?!"
As the voice fell, Huo Zhaozhao panicked and realized that he had talked a little too much.
Sure enough, Shen Jing felt his brows twitching hard, and his stern face was filled with frost, "I'm married, it's not a secret. But Tang Qiao'er is my ex-wife, who told you about this?" ?”
"Yes... it was my elder brother who said it!" Huo Zhaozhao lied bravely.
"It was Shen Bailu who told you, right?"
"..." Huo Zhaozhao bit his lip hard.
"The matter between Tang Qiaoer and I is my private matter, and no one has the right to comment on it. She has started a new life, please don't talk about her past relationship with me again." Shen Jingjue His voice was as deep as winter thunder.
Huo Zhaozhao's heart beat like a drum, and he was filled with hatred.
Isn't this man speaking for Tang Qiao'er, protecting her and protecting her privacy?!
"Adawang is gone. If you don't want to play for the guests tonight, I can take you back to Huo's house at any time."
Shen Jingjue withdrew his gaze from Huo Zhaozhao's pale face, withdrew his arm and left without looking away.
Han Xian clicked his tongue twice and secretly looked at Huo Zhaozhao with contempt.
I wonder if this mean-mouthed girl is really Young Master Huo’s biological sister?
How should I put it, it's a bit annoying.
"Second brother! Second brother! Shen Jingjue!"
The man didn't stop at all during the first two calls. He didn't stop until Huo Zhaozhao called his name.
"You defend that Tang Qiao'er so much, is it because you fell in love with her? Do you have her in your heart?!" Huo Zhaozhao was so angry that his voice broke.
"No, I don't love him." Shen Jingjue said without thinking.
It was as if one second later, some secret feelings that even he himself was not aware of would be revealed.
"Then why are you talking to her? Not only does she not love you, she also teases you, robs you of things that belong to you, and ruins the banquet you worked hard to prepare!
She is a woman who is bad to the core, she is just trying to harm you, why are you facing her!" After Huo Zhaozhao finished speaking, his tone was already hysterical.
She is not as good at pretending as Jin Enrou. After all, she grew up as the daughter of the Huo family and was loved by thousands of people. What she wants is always within easy reach. So she has always said what she wants and does whatever she wants.
But now, for the first time, she felt defeated.
She found that the more she wanted to get closer to Shen Jingjue, the more Shen Jingjue kept retreating, getting further and further away from her.
The man looked back and stared at Huo Zhaozhao coldly with an almost inhuman gaze, forcing her torso to stiffen instantly.
"Ms. Huo has never been married, so she definitely doesn't understand the saying, 'One day for a couple, a hundred days of kindness'. We are a husband and wife after all, so what's the problem with me showing mercy to her?"
Huo Zhaozhao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his cheeks turned white and blue in embarrassment.
"Even if I don't love her, she has been my woman after all. The only person who can say anything about her is me. Others are not qualified."
*
A cold rain fell in the night sky.
Shen Chulu secretly ran out from Guanchao Manor, holding the little bear in her arms alone, and walked a long way in the wind and rain before she found a taxi.
After finally arriving at Shen's Hotel, Shen Chulu's thin white cotton skirt was already soaked through.
But the little bear in his arms was still dry and not touched by the rain at all.
She had severe social fear and did not dare to enter through the front door, so she could only sneak into her hotel through the back door.
She hunched her shoulders and drooped her long wet eyelashes, avoiding all the gorgeously dressed guests, and walked quickly through the corridors with her little feet.
"Stop!"
Shen Bailu stopped suddenly, her heart beating wildly.
She is obviously Shen's little daughter, but at this moment she seems to be a thief.
Two patrolling bodyguards came over and looked at Shen Chulu with disgust. They saw that she was in a mess, dressed in ordinary clothes, and had a look of contempt.
"There's an important cocktail party here tonight, so don't get too close to the rest of the crowd!"
"I...I want to see Ada...Please, let me go in and take a look at her, okay? Just take a look and I'll leave!" Shen Chulu begged pitifully.
"No! You can't come in without an invitation, so hurry up and leave!" The bodyguard had a bad attitude and had already reached out to chase people away.
"Don't even look at where this place is! Can poor students like you come here? Get out of here!"
Shen Chulu really likes ada, and she is born with an unreasonable paranoia. Whatever she wants to do, she must do it despite all the difficulties!
So, she bit her teeth hard, hugged the little bear tightly, took a few steps back, and then ran towards the bodyguard after a run-up!
"ah!"
As a result, Shen Chulu, who was extremely weak, was grabbed by the arm by the tall bodyguard, and then he suddenly shook his hand and threw her out!
She closed her eyes in panic, but did not fall to the ground.
Instead, she fell steadily and accurately into a strong, hard, and familiar embrace.
