Chapter 8: Miscalculation

Jing Ningran took a step back, obviously hesitating.

"Since you have something to do, I'll go over first."

Chu Huaiyuan's voice was flat and indifferent, and after speaking, he turned around and left directly, but Jing Ningran, who was left alone, couldn't guess where the so-called past in his words was.

But she knew he wanted to see his own jokes.

Qi Shaoting took advantage of the fire to rob at this time and took a step forward to approach, but because she was Mrs. Chu's face, she didn't get closer.

"Miss Jing, now that you have attended the banquet, does it mean that your Jing family is now capable of facing the sins you have done, in that case, should you repay your debts?"

"What debt, I don't know at all."

Jing Ningran wasn't lying, she didn't know anything about the Jing family at all, and the Jing family would never take the initiative to mention anything to her.

She really didn't know anything about the money except about the money — but about the so-called arrears.

Qi Shaoting only thought she was acting, her smile gradually converged, her fox eyes narrowed slightly, her attention looked up and down on Jing Ningran, and sneered.

"Miss Jing is really good at pretending, no wonder the family is bankrupt and can still make Chu Shao fascinated by you, if it weren't for you getting married, maybe I would have taken pity on you...... Consider another way for you to give me the money back. ”

In front of so many people, Qi Shaoting directly uncovered Jing Ningran's scar without any scruples.

She bit her lower lip, knowing that the other party was deliberately embarrassing herself, but she couldn't find any reason or excuse to refute it.

Jing Ningran clenched her fists and released them, and at this time, the feeling of shock, fear, and humiliation spread all over her body, making her breath a little short.

"Miss Jing......"

Qi Shaoting wanted to take a step further and press, but the people around him were watching everything that happened with the attitude of watching the play.

Chu Huaiyuan, who has just gone away, has always been in the same identity as the audience, and he does not speak or make any moves.

Except for the moment when Qi Shaoting humiliated Jing Ningran just now, the aura emanating from his body changed slightly.

Since the marriage of the Chu family and the Jing family, no one can detect what he cares about this new wife, since the marriage, major news reports have been reports that he and Su Xue have been in and out of various occasions, and he knows some of the gossip in City C, but he is too lazy to explain.

But now, I didn't expect this to become a reason for some people to want to inch in.

Qi Shaoting has been figuring out the reason why Chu Huaiyuan left in his heart.

Although the Chu family's wedding was known in the entire C City that was advertised at that time, a discerning person could see that Chu Huaiyuan didn't care about Jing Ningran, otherwise how could he be his secretary when he entered the door for the first time at the beginning of the banquet?

The atmosphere of gossip around her became stronger and stronger, Jing Ningran felt pressured, and she actually had the desire to escape.

But at this time, her hand was tightly wrapped in the palm of her hand by a big hand, and she raised her head and met the expression on Chu Huaiyuan's face that seemed to be smiling.

"Mrs. Chu, are you trying to escape?"

“……”

The sound is not loud or small, as far as they can hear.

But Chu Huaiyuan stood directly in front of her as soon as he came back, as if he was silently helping her block everything, he lowered his head, and outsiders only felt that the two of them seemed to be intimate when they saw this scene.

Qi Shaoting took advantage of everyone's opinions on Jing Ningran, and it was true that the Jing family owed money to find a suitable reason for Su Xue's head, who knew that Chu Huaiyuan would not ignore his new wife as rumored, at this moment, Qi Shaoting suddenly felt a little nervous.

"Chu Shao, it's been a long time since I saw you, since my father died, I've been looking for an opportunity to meet with you and talk about our cooperation, I don't know if Chu Shao can appreciate his face now?"

Qi Shaoting is a smart person, and before things develop to the point where he can't control them, he also knows that he preemptively picked up the wine glass on the side and made a gesture to cover up Fang Cai's own past.

But Chu Huaiyuan ignored him.

The Chu couple still maintained that intimate appearance, and the whispers that others muttered when they saw them gradually disappeared.

Onlookers suddenly felt very confused about the direction of this story.

"Chu, Chu Shao?"

Qi Shaoting couldn't control the situation a little, he only felt that things seemed to be out of his control, he began to get nervous, and his hand holding the wine glass was trembling.

Although he and the Chu family have always been in a cooperative relationship, it was all laid down by his father who had just died, and he took over the family business.

It seems that now ...... Is it causing trouble?

"Mr. Qi, I've always been curious if your father's death will affect our cooperative relationship."

Chu Huaiyuan suddenly said such a sentence, the atmosphere at the scene was a little anxious, and the most untenable was Qi Shaoting himself.

"Chu Shao, you misunderstood." Qi Shaoting's face was flustered and he was about to explain, but he was interrupted by Chu Huaiyuan's extremely indifferent eyes.

"What I can't deny all this time is that the cooperation between Chu and Qi is indeed very pleasant, but some time ago a manufacturer told me that they can provide me with lower prices and better services than Qi ...... I've been thinking about it lately. ”

"Chu, Chu Shao?" Qi Shaoting smelled the smell of danger, and he always knew that the man in front of him was a wolf who killed people without blinking.

Just what he said was enough for Qi Shaoting to lose the hard work that his father had spent five years piling up.

Without the Chu family, a big partner, the Qi family is nothing at all!

"If you want to blame, you can only blame Boss Qi's incompetence, spending all day drinking, idleness, I have always been guessing what you would be like without Old Man Qi, now it seems that you are really a waste."

Chu Huaiyuan seemed to see through Qi Shaoting's most worrying problem, and bluntly exposed his scars without any care.

Qi Shaoting only felt that all the eyes around him were directed towards him with sarcasm, and he inexplicably became a monkey in a cage for people to watch.

He was so nervous that his hands almost shook and the cup fell.

Chu Huaiyuan no longer gave any time to entangle on the senseless people, and took Jing Ningran's hand and walked towards the crowd, and the crowd obediently got out of the way.

"Are you leaving? Chu Shao! ”

The host of the banquet had already rushed to the scene as fast as he could, but he didn't dare to stop the two people who were walking towards the door.

Chu Huaiyuan tilted his head slightly, and his voice was indifferent.

"Since my wife is not welcome at this banquet, it means that I am not welcome, and in this case, I will take my wife away."

The banquet host's face turned white as soon as he brushed it, and he wanted to catch up but was stopped by the bodyguards who rushed over.
