Huang Biqing flashed a smile, but just as she was about to speak, she violently realized what was going on. She turned her head toward Ji Chen. “Executive Assistant Ji, her surname is Zhuang, not Huang…”
Ji Chen, seeing that she was still unaware of what was going on, waved for the two bodyguards to hold her by the arms and escort her out of the venue!
Huang Biqing’s eyes widened. “Executive Assistant Ji, you’ve caught the wrong person! It’s not me… ah…”
Zhuang Nainai beamed and waved at her, then said breezily, “Goodbye, Joker Huang!”
But even up ’til the moment that Huang Biqing vanished outside, Zhuang Nainai resolutely refused to turn her head and face Si Zhengting and the rest.
Even if he had been the one to help her out of the situation… his partner wasn’t her…
It seemed as if the onlookers also realized this; they composed their shocked demeanors, then turned their expectant gazes toward Si Zhengting and Zuo Yiyi.
Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath and ignored the pitiful gazes coming from the onlookers, looking instead for the reporter that Mi Nuo had helped to enter. But just as she stuck out her neck and took a step to leave the messy situation that had just occurred, the entire event venue fell silent. Then, the music began!
The event had begun!
Zhuang Nainai turned her head and realized that all the lights of the venue were now switched off except for the single spotlight shining on the emcee.
After the emcee’s splendid introduction, she smiled toward Si Zhengting. “First, let’s welcome the Imperial Group’s Chairman, Mr. Si Zhengting, up on the stage for a few words!”
The lights fell on Si Zhengting.
Even though he was expressionless, his cheery outfit made him seem more at peace than usual. As he heard the emcee’s invitation, he put his cell phone in his pocket with an inexplicable elegance, then stepped up to the stage. His tall stature on the stage gave off an aura of dominance, just like how the ancient emperors commanded respect and reverence during their inspections of their land.
The moment he spoke, the attention of everyone in the venue fell on him.
After giving a simple speech, he passed the microphone back to the emcee, who then made a few jokes to liven up the atmosphere.
Zuo Yiyi was still in a state of awkwardness as she stood below the stage. After all, people who had insider information would definitely have known what was going on when Huang Biqing had gone to create trouble for Zhuang Nainai. Now that Si Zhengting had chased Huang Biqing out, it was akin to slapping Zuo Yiyi’s own face.
In an attempt to please Zuo Yiyi, the people around her began speaking among themselves in low tones, pointing at Zhuang Nainai while speaking at a volume loud enough for both Zuo Yiyi and Zhuang Nainai to hear.
“Look at her! Please, does she think that once Mr. Si helps her, she’s now Mrs. Si?”
“With a status like hers, how can she be fit to stand by Mr. Si’s side?”
“Exactly. She’s just trying to reach above her status.”
Zhuang Nainai was speechless.
Insult after insult came, making Zhuang Nainai feel more than ever before that the situation was unbearable. She wanted to leave.
Standing in a corner, she felt her heart hurting as if it were being pricked by needles.
She had thought it through — she and Si Zhengting were not going to work out anymore. Without a doubt, they were going to get a divorce.
She also knew that after the divorce, Si Zhengting would someday belong to another woman. But now that the moment was here, she finally realized how painful it felt.
Only now did she know how much she didn’t want to let him go.
Only now did she realize how much she wanted to be the woman standing beside him.
