Su Hongxing looked at the other woman—it was Qiao Qiao, her best friend. She smiled, “If you can be here, why can’t I?”

Qiao Qiao playfully punched Su Hongxing in the chest: “Naughty girl, who’s this with you?”

“Ye Qilan, my date for tonight.” Su Hongxing didn’t dare tell the truth.

If Qiao Qiao knew that Ye Qilan was her lawful husband, she would probably tear Su Hongxing apart.

“Are you Hongxing’s friend?” Ye Qilan asked politely.

“My name is Qiao Qiao, everyone fondly calls me Xiaoqiao. Mr. Ye, it’s my pleasure to meet you.”

In the middle of their conversation, Qiao Qiao lightly nudged Su Hongxing, muttering, “Come over with me, I have something to tell you.”

Su Hongxing noticed Qiao Qiao’s odd expression and was about to step aside with her and ask about it.

Suddenly, a familiar female voice echoed from the front: “Hongxing? Is that really you?!”

The voice belonged to Zhou Luhe.

Zhou Luhe was dressed in a green floor-length evening gown.

The rich green dress only accentuated her pristine white skin, and made her stunningly beautiful. The man beside her was wearing a black swallowtail suit, radiant, extremely handsome. It was none other than Xiao Ji.

At the sight of Xiao Ji, Su Hongxing’s heart tightened.

Qiao Qiao whispered in her ear with a gloomy face: “1 wanted to tell you earlier that Xiao Ji is accompanying Zhou Luhe to the banquet, I am a bit late.”

She knew that Xiao Ji was the person Su Hongxing cared about the most. And it was rumored all over the high society of Taicheng that Xiao Ji and Zhou Luhe would soon be having a wedding.

She hadn’t dared to tell Su Hongxing about it, hoping to delay it for another day. It was unexpected that even after arriving in the Imperial Capital, they would meet so abruptly. It was difficult to avoid.

Su Hongxing watched as Zhou Luhe elegantly approached arm in arm with Xiao Ji, her eyes growing colder.

Zhou Luhe looked Su Hongxing up and down before shaking her head: “I always knew you never cared about your appearance, but to dress like this for such an occasion, aren’t you worried you’ll be an embarrassment?”

Everyone was waiting to see the woman Ye Qilan brought along. Now they are witnessing the woman associated with Ye Qilan belittled by another woman. Wasn’t this akin to slapping Ye Qilan’s face?

The crowd silently waited in unison, eager to see how things would unfold.

Ye Qilan moved to Su Hongxing’s side, his arm circling her waist: “Hongxing, how do you know every Tom, Dick, and Harry?”

His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for those nearby to hear clearly.

Next, Ye Qilan turned towards Xiao Ji: “Sir, you should keep a better watch on your dog. Letting her bark indiscriminately around is damaging the city’s beautification.”

Xiao Ji pretended not to hear, his eyes fixed on Su Hongxing’s face.

From the moment she showed up at the banquet, he thought he was seeing things, especially since she was with Ye Qilan.

Wherever he went previously, people had been talking about Ye Qilan. They said that the flirtatious Ye Si had a unique eye for women and that he was with an unusual new woman. He also heard that Ye Qilan would appear tonight with his new favorite.

How could he have known that the woman accompanying Ye Qilan to the banquet would be Su Hongxing?

Zhou Luhe looked even more embarrassed being belittled by Ye Qilan. Given Ye Qilan’s status, she had to suppress her anger.

Moreover, ever since Su Hongxing appeared at the banquet, Xiao Ji’s gaze hadn’t moved away from Su Hongxing’s face, making Zhou Luhe even more upset.

Ye Qilan too had noticed this detail and asked Xiao Ji casually, “Do you think my woman is pretty?”
