Chapter 118:-for-tat
In the evening of the next day, Ji Xiaoxi was watching a movie in the apartment, when a hurried doorbell suddenly rang outside the door. She hurriedly walked over and found from the cat's eye that it was Lu He standing at the door.
"Why are you here?" Ji Xiaoxi opened the door and took a bottle of ice water to Lu He, who was sweating profusely.
Lu He panted and leaned against the door, throwing a bunch of large and small boxes in his hand on the sofa, "Xiaoxi, quickly change your clothes, tonight's anniversary of the Yeshi Group." ”
Ha? The anniversary celebration must be attended by everyone with a face in the Night Market Group, and she was not informed at this time, and she was not prepared at all.
"Tell me so late, can I not go?" The last time she participated in the family banquet of the Ye family, Ji Xiaoxi left a bad impression, Ye Chensheng's family seemed to be difficult to get along with, she was so unprepared, if something went wrong, it would bring unnecessary trouble to Ye Chensheng.
Lu He looked nervous, "My little ancestor, now the matter between you and Ye Shao has been spread all over Weibo, plus Ye Shao has replied to a wave of marriage certificates, and the media who came to the scene today are waiting to take photos of you in the same frame." And ......" he squeezed out a smile bitterly, "Yeshao asked me to pick you up in the afternoon, I forgot about it, if you don't go, I will be cleaned up by Yeshao." ”
Ji Xiaoxi glanced at Lu He helplessly, lifted the dress and shoes on the sofa and entered the cloakroom. After a while, when she came out again, she had already changed her clothes and had a thin layer of light makeup on her face.
"Let's go, little ancestor." Lu He hurriedly stepped forward to support Ji Xiaoxi, and the two hurried to the five-star hotel under the Yeshi Group.
When Ji Xiaoxi and Lu He arrived, the anniversary celebration had already begun.
She squeezed through the door with some curiosity, her eyes scurryly scanning the banquet hall. All the people present were rich and noble, familiar faces she had seen in financial magazines, and some politicians who had appeared on TV news, all at the same time at this staggered banquet.
"Xiaoxi, Ye Shao is talking to the partner, you wait here for a while, and he will come over soon." Lu He dropped this sentence, and people didn't know where to run.
Ji Xiaoxi was bored, took a glass of juice and silently used it as a potted plant in the corner. Just when she was bored and about to mold, suddenly there was a commotion in the banquet hall, and it seemed that something important had appeared.
She followed the direction of everyone's gaze and saw the door of the ballroom open, and a flamboyant young woman walked in with a dress.
The reporters present were obviously excited, and the long guns and short cannons in their hands were aimed at the young woman who had just walked in for a while.
Surrounded by countless flashing lights, the young woman waved her hand gracefully with a toothy smile on her well-trained face.
Ji Xiaoxi's eyes showed a hint of doubt, how could this woman seem to have seen it somewhere, and she always felt that the more she looked at it, the more familiar she became.
"Miss Xia Xue, didn't you already go to country Z to expand the market, why did you suddenly return to China today." A well-known gossip reporter stepped forward and asked.
Ji Xiaoxi suddenly realized that the young woman in front of her was her ex-girlfriend Xia Xue, who broke up with Ye Chensheng at the beginning? !
An inexplicable sense of nervousness quietly crept up Ji Xiaoxi's back, and she instinctively hid herself in the crowd, observing Xia Xue from a distance.
Xia Xue looks a few years older than her, and the maintenance and dressing up of her whole body all reveal the word exquisite. The delicate facial features are bright and moving, but they have a unique strength and temperament that belong to the elite class.
Even if Xia Xue is her rival in love, Ji Xiaoxi has to admit at this moment that the woman in front of her is indeed a stunner who can't take her eyes off.
Facing the questions of gossip reporters, Xia Xue smiled and naturally brushed the long hair on her sideburns, "Today is the anniversary of the Yeshi Group, and it is also an important day for me, no matter where I am, I will definitely rush back to participate." ”
When her words fell, everyone present was in an uproar. Ji Xiaoxi was in the crowd, and all kinds of discussions around him were endless.
"What does Xia Xue mean by this, who doesn't know that she and Ye Chensheng are coming back in such a high-profile way, shouldn't they want to rob a man?"
"This makes it clear that there is something in the words, but Xia Xue and Ye Chensheng are really a good match, both of them are business wizards."
"It's a pity that Ye Chensheng is already married, otherwise I really want to see this golden boy and girl together."
Listening to the sound of these gossip, Ji Xiaoxi pouted a little unhappily. What do these people mean, although Xia Xue is very powerful, she is not bad!
Just when Ji Xiaoxi was sullen, his back suddenly pressed against a solid chest. She raised her head and met Ye Chensheng's deep eyes.
Ye Chensheng wrapped his arms around Ji Xiaoxi's waist, "I had something just now, I'm bored waiting." ”
"It's okay, I haven't been here for long." Ye Chensheng's warm body temperature gave Ji Xiaoxi an indescribable sense of security, and the heart she had been floating in finally fell steadily.
Ye Chensheng's appearance successfully focused everyone's attention on him, and he just took a non-stop camera at Xia Xue, and at this moment, he collectively turned the camera and aimed at Ye Chensheng and Ji Xiaoxi together.
At this time, Xia Xue's eyes also fell on Ye Chensheng, her bright eyes showed a hint of joy, and she rushed straight towards Ye Chensheng with light steps.
"Sheng, long time no see." Xia Xue didn't seem to see Ji Xiaoxi at all, and said coquettishly around Ye Chensheng's neck with a calm demeanor.
Ye Chensheng's expression was grim, and he pushed Xia Xue away from his body with a tough move.
"This is my wife, Ji Xiaoxi." Ye Chensheng encircled Ji Xiaoxi in his arms in front of many reporters and announced loudly.
Xia Xue had a look of sudden realization, her eyes moved to Ji Xiaoxi, she looked up and down, and gestured with a shallow smile, "Xiaoxi, hello, you should know me, I am Xia Xue." ”
She didn't make any response to Ye Chensheng's announcement, but just told Ji Xiaoxi lightly that she was Xia Xue. Ji Xiaoxi understood very well that this was Xia Xue's silent contempt.
All Xia Xue's actions are announcing to everyone that she doesn't take Ji Xiaoxi in her eyes at all.
"Hello, it's the first time we've met, but it's a pity that Ye Chensheng never mentioned you to me before." Ji Xiaoxi raised the corners of his lips, revealing an innocent smile.
Instead of being like a great enemy, ignoring it casually is the biggest counterattack to Xia Xue.
Sure enough, Ji Xiaoxi's voice fell, and Xia Xue's face showed a trace of imperceptible displeasure. However, in front of everyone, she still maintained her smile very well, and just cast her eyes on Ye Chensheng.
"I came back this time to discuss with Yeshi Group the issue of jointly developing the market in country N."
