She's sick!

Li Chenxi's voice was neither loud nor low, the serene deep eyes s were also unperturbed, and his tone was light and indifferent, as if he was discussing whether or not he should drink a cup later.

Pei Shaolin looked at him indifferently and laughed, "What do you think, President Li?"

He asked lightly, but too much provocation was hidden in his words.

Li Chenxi did not get angry and instead laughed, but that laughter did not reach his eyes, which was also the time when he was the most terrifying.

Shu Yao had a feeling that she was about to become cannon fodder. She did not want to be caught in the crossfire of battle, so she quickly broke free from Pei Shaolin's embrace, politely nodding her head and obediently walking to Li Chenxi's side.

As he looked at her, his clear eyes were as obedient as a little white rabbit, making it hard for people to get angry.

"You go in first!" Li Chenxi only said this to her.

Shu Yao nodded and quickly left.

Just as she left, Pei Shaoling's face darkened, "President Li, do you have some sort of habit of picking up the leftovers of others? The habit of picking up leftovers has really never changed after all these years! "

After saying that, Li Chenxi's gloomy and handsome face turned frosty, and he frowned: "These words should be what I said to you, right?"

As everyone knew, it was only after Han Cai Ling and Li Chenxi had broken up that they started to get to know each other.

Everything has to be first come first served, doesn't it?

Pei Shaoling seemed to have guessed what he was referring to, and nodded his head slowly, "So what if it is what happened afterwards? At least I have always been in Cai Ling's heart, right? "

Li Chenxi's cold eyes were like a ferocious beast that was hibernating its prey.

Pei Shaoling his lower lip, "We are of the same side, aren't we?! However, Cai Ling is already in the past, compared to Shu Yao. "

Before he could even finish his words, he was cut off by Li Chenxi, "She's my wife, don't even think about doing anything crooked!"

"Oh, so President Li knows about this!"

Pei Shaoling smiled as his gaze quickly fixed onto her. A cold aura assaulted her, "If you know, then hold on. Otherwise, who knows who else she will become!"

Li Chenxi's sinister face did not look good, but that was the end of the conversation.

Returning back to the main hall, Pei Shaoling and everyone else had a good time. Through the wine cup in his hand, the amber liquid penetrated the well-defined contours of the man in the distance.

A cold smile gradually spread from Pei Shaoling's lips.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Jiang Wenyi carrying his grandson and taking photos with Li Chenxi in the distance.

What a beautiful scene, yet it stung Pei Shaoling's eyes!

He had been at loggerheads with Li Chenxi since young. He was obviously a child and a classmate, but the relationship between them had never been friendly.

After taking over the company one by one, they became competitors in the shopping mall. It was almost impossible to have two tigers in one mountain.

However, under this surface situation, what was hidden was a truth that even Pei Shaosi herself did not wish to reveal!

Shu Yao sat in a corner and tried her best to reduce the feeling of her own existence in the noisy crowd.

However, he was still unable to escape from Shu Yuan's clutches.

Shu Yuan carried a cocktail in her hands and sat down beside her on her high heels. With a cold snort, she said, "In the end, you didn't help me, and instead helped others?"

As these words still echoed in his ears, Shu Yao faintly looked at her, and his brows slightly knitted.

Shu Yuan seemed to have drank too much, she raised her head and drank all the cocktails in her hand, then said: "That's right, I was scheming against your child, to get an abomination from you, since brother Chenxi doesn't like you, wouldn't it be appropriate for me to become the mother of a child?"

"No matter what, we are sisters, relatives, and children. I will treat your children as my own, and on account of you giving Brother Chenxi to me, I will treat you better!"

Shu Yuan patted her shoulder, her gaze slightly blurry, as if she was venting it out, and said: "But now? If you give birth to a child, won't you still give it to someone else? What's the use of having only a title with no real name? "

Every word he spoke shocked Shu Yao's ears.

"You are an ungrateful bastard, yet you still refuse to believe me!?" Never consider it for the sake of your family! " Shu Yuan stood up shakily and angrily rolled her eyes at her.

"The benefits are too good for others. Shu Yao, there will be a day when you regret your tears!"

Shu Yuan was indeed drunk, the Secretary of the Shu Family helped her leave, and before they left, he bowed to Shu Yao respectfully.

Yet Shu Yao just sat there in a daze, her eyes empty and her curly eyelashes trembling slightly.

On the other side of the main platform, Han Cai Ling was holding Li Zheng and chatting happily with the people around them. From his posture, it was obvious that he was the mistress of the Li family, as well as the child's biological mother!

Shu Yao looked at it closely without blinking.

An unbearable fire ignited in her heart. The boiling flames nearly caused her blood to surge. Emotional, she wanted to immediately rush over and take back her son! But rationally, she had no choice but to calm down.

He had to be calm.

Take a deep breath, breathe again!

It was more of a ruse than a taunt.

Not to mention that she couldn't speak right now. If she rushed forward and stole the child, what would happen if she injured the child?

It was just a banquet, after that, Zheng Er would automatically return to her side!

Shu Yao tried her best to calm her heart. For this banquet, she really did not want to stay even a second longer.

There were a few drunk people gathered in the corridor, they were noisy and could not be quiet, Shu Yao was already depressed, so she avoided them as fast as possible.

In the bathroom, cold water was splashing over her small white hands. She waited for half a minute before she turned off the tap.

Shu Yao looked at herself in the mirror, her brows tightly knitted together. No matter what, she had to persevere on, until the end, in order to bring Zheng Er home safely.

"Have you heard? How did Han Cai Ling leave the dance group, do you know the reason? "

Inside the toilet stall, a gentle female voice sounded beside Shu Yao's ear.

She didn't mind eavesdropping on other people's conversation. She hastily wiped her hands with a tissue and was about to leave, but before she could step out of the bathroom, another sentence came from inside — —

"Because she is sick! It's still that disgusting disease! "

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand? Those who can get infected, so stay away from her! "

A woman screamed in surprise, "Oh my god!"

"Be quiet, don't let anyone hear you!"

Shu Yao's body trembled violently as she stood outside the washroom. She was in a daze for a long time before she slowly regained her senses, and the two young women who were conversing previously also walked out.

They swept a glance at Shu Yao, did not pay any attention to him, and directly left.

At the corner, the two women stopped and looked at each other in satisfaction, revealing bright and cold smiles.

However, Shu Yao was unable to calm down any longer. Clenching her fist tightly, her fingernails dug into her skin and flesh, she could no longer endure the unease in her heart and quickly returned to the banquet hall.

In the midst of the crowd in the distance, Han Cai Ling was still holding Li Zheng and chatting casually with a few people.

Even her smile was elegant and indifferent, and it was especially appropriate.

Shu Yao quickly passed the crowd and arrived in front of Han Cai Ling. She politely lowered her head and smiled, then took her son from her arms.

However, this small action caused Han Cai Ling to become suspicious and she immediately questioned, "Miss Shu, what's wrong?"
