Everyone’s gossiping atmosphere was suppressed. They held their breaths and waited for Su Xun’s next move.
Would he drag Xi Wan away angrily, or would he say in a haughty manner,
“Let’s just let the Ling and Xiao families go bankrupt when it’s time?” However, Xi Wan’s casual introduction made the silent atmosphere disappear without a trace.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Su Xun and Xi Wan holding hands.
Was this tone really something Su Xun could say?
Xi Wan said lightly, “We were talking about the ring you gave me. Mrs. Wang asked me where it was bought.”
“I bought it casually.” Su Xun let go of Xi Wan’s hand. His tone was cold.
This matched everyone’s impression of Su Xun.
Xiao Zhe snorted coldly and said, “I didn’t expect Mr. Su to buy what I liked so casually.”
In other words, Xiao Zhe had originally planned to buy this pink diamond for Mrs. Su, but he didn’t expect it to be bought by Su Xun?
Did Su Xun know the inside story?
Even Lu Zhou could feel the tension in the air. Lu Ting was also watching the show.
Su Xun rejected the pastries handed over by the waiter and said, “There’s also a green diamond that’s not too bad. Top Actor Xiao, you can take a look at that one.”
Xiao Zhe did not know if Su Xun was being intentional or not, but Xiao Zhe’s expression turned ugly after hearing this.
He did not say anything but Ling Feng said, “It seems that Mr. Su likes to steal favors from others.”
Lu Zhou did not even dare to breathe. When she looked at the person’s expression, she saw that Xi Wan was calm and even had the time to peel off the packaging of another plate of pastry.
Was Xi Wan really not nervous at all?
However, Xi Wan’s thoughts were, “I didn’t expect to see such an exciting show. Looks like today’s birthday banquet wasn’t in vain.”
The system replied: [Who do you think they are doing this for?]
Xi Wan said, “This is a plot that the male protagonist and the antagonist must follow.” The hatred of stealing his wife is irreconcilable.”
[Then, can you, as his ‘wife’, stop standing by the side and acting like this has nothing to do with you?]
“I’m afraid that the feelings must not be real if something can be taken away so easily.”
Xi Wan was slightly surprised by his words. “Su Xun’s attack power is quite high.’
When Xi Wan saw that Su Xun usually didn’t talk much, she thought that he was a smart man of action. She did not expect that his retort skills were quite good.
Cheng Shi, who was sitting opposite him, felt a little better. She wanted to tell Su Xun about Xi Wan and Ling Feng’s past, but she didn’t want Su Xun to make things difficult for Ling Feng.
However, Cheng Shi had seen what Ling Feng had said to Xi Wan and how he had protected her, so she felt a little imbalanced.
‘Mr. Su, do you know about what happened between Mrs. Su and Ling Feng? Cheng Shi asked Su Xun.
Su Xun did not even look at her. Instead, he placed a hand on Xi Wan’s shoulder and asked, “Who is she?”
They were clearly ignoring her and felt disdained to talk to her.
This was undoubtedly a blow to Cheng Shi.
Xi Wan thought about it and tried her best to recall, “I don’t know who she is either. I only heard Mrs. Wang call her Miss Cheng.”
“Xi Wan, what are you pretending for? If you don’t know me, why did you say so much to me just now?”
“Because I’m polite,” Xi Wan replied.
Mrs. Wang also said, ” Miss Cheng, you came over to talk on your own to begin with. Mrs. Su is a kind person, so she didn’t argue with you.”
Cheng Shi’s eyes almost popped out.
How was Xi Wan kind from head to toe?
Mrs. Wang looked at Xi Wan and said apologetically, “I didn’t think it through. I actually didn’t introduce Miss Cheng to Mr. Su.”
“It’s okay, you’re busy.” Xi Wan found an excuse and said to Cheng Shi, “My husband doesn’t know you yet. Why don’t you introduce yourself, Miss Cheng?”
Cheng Shi’s expression immediately changed, and she stood up to leave.
Everyone could see her sorrow and misery from her back view.
When everyone came back to their senses, Su Xun finally withdrew his hand on Xi Wan’s shoulder.
“The birthday banquet is about to begin,” He whispered.
“I understand.” After Xi Wan tidied up her appearance, she held Su Xun’s arm and walked toward the banquet hall.
Lu Zhou looked at the two of them and said, “They’re really a perfect match!”
