Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 34 The Calm and Reserved CEO and the Scheming First Love (4)
"Brother Tingchuan, I'm alright!"
Zhou Tingchuan looked at Xia Yanqiao, whose face was still somewhat pale, and said gently with a lowered brow, "I'll stay here with you, I won't go anywhere!"
"I'm really alright now, Brother Tingchuan. This gala is very important to you. Hasn't your hospital been looking for funding? Everyone here is someone of importance. If you can get their sponsorship, you won't have to worry all the time!" Xia Yanqiao's tone was full of concern as she looked at Zhou Tingchuan's somewhat thin chin, feeling heartbroken.
Seeing that Zhou Tingchuan was still hesitating, Xia Yanqiao simply pushed him out, her eyes filled with tears, and said loudly, "Brother Tingchuan, I'm really fine, you should go!"
Zhou Tingchuan looked at the tightly closed door, sighed softly, loosened his clenched hands, rested them on the door, and said gently, "Qiaoqiao, if you feel unwell, just call me! I'll come right away!"
Hearing the response from inside, Zhou Tingchuan reluctantly left and went to the front hall.
After Zhou Tingchuan left, Xia Yanqiao could no longer support her swaying body and collapsed to the ground, burying her face in her hands and crying bitterly.
I cried until I was completely exhausted before I slowly let go.
Xia Yanqiao looked down at her dress and recalled Lin Xiao's smug look, feeling so angry she wanted to bite her lip.
Lin Xiao clearly wanted to see me humiliated, which is why she made me wear the same clothes as her. Why should someone who does all sorts of bad things receive respect, while I, the victim, only receive ridicule and mockery?
Xia Yanqiao took a deep breath, tidied her makeup in front of the mirror, and walked out of the lounge with her head held high again.
When Xia Yanqiao arrived at the front hall, everyone was already seated. The emcee on the stage was giving a passionate speech, and Yao Mingchen finished his toast amidst thunderous applause.
The dinner party officially started.
Xia Yanqiao tiptoed over and sat down next to Shen Zhenguo.
Shen Zhenguo remained silent upon Xia Yanqiao's arrival, simply gazing quietly at the stage, seemingly waiting for something.
Xia Yanqiao pursed her lips, suppressing her resentment towards Shen Zhenguo for not speaking up for her. She pretended to be well-mannered, nodded to the people around her, and then looked towards the stage.
The dimly lit stage was instantly bathed in spotlights, and a perfect couple appeared on stage, sparkling under the spotlights.
The man played the violin, and the woman played the piano; their melodious music captivated the restless crowd.
"He Yan is currently competing with the Yao family for that piece of land in the west of the city. He needs a seemingly strong teammate to help promote the alliance!"
Shen Zhenguo was explaining to Xia Yanqiao why he hadn't come forward to defend her.
Shen Zhenguo is a businessman by nature and naturally values profit. He is happy to hear rumors that only benefit the Shen Group and will not cause any harm, and he remains silent about them.
This is a common tactic in the business world, and Shen Zhenguo hopes that Xia Yanqiao can understand his good intentions.
Clearly, Xia Yanqiao didn't understand that for someone like her who had always lived at the bottom of society, being loyal to her partner was a person's duty.
This was clearly beyond Xia Yanqiao's comprehension!
Looking at Xia Yanqiao's pale face, Shen Zhenguo assumed that she had accepted his teachings and would no longer do anything disgraceful to the Shen family.
Xia Yanqiao stared quietly at Shen Heyan on the stage. Shen Heyan's cold and hard appearance became extremely dazzling under the spotlight. After the music ended, he and the equally beautiful woman beside him bowed deeply to the audience to express their gratitude.
Amidst applause and blessings, he walked to the table and sat down.
During this time, Shen Heyan also gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Xiaoxiao and served her food.
Xia Yanqiao's gaze never left Shen Heyan after he sat down.
Seeing that Shen Heyan was still chatting and laughing with Xiaoxiao without changing his expression, Xia Yanqiao then turned her gaze to Xiaoxiao next to Shen Heyan.
Seeing that the female lead was looking at her, Xiao Xiao nodded gently and magnanimously in return.
[Look at the female lead's resentful eyes! That's a huge compliment to my acting!]
[Yaoyao: The female lead's eyes say it all! Master, this year's Best Employee Award belongs to you!]
Xia Yanqiao was provoked by Xiao Xiao's kind smile. Her previously calm face instantly turned ferocious, and she said to Xiao Xiao in a sarcastic tone, "I heard that there were rumors about President Shen getting married two months ago, but Miss Lin just said that she just returned to the country!"
Then, her gaze shifted between the two of them, and she asked with a bright smile, "I just feel there's a discrepancy in the timing, and I don't quite understand it, so I'm asking."
As soon as Xia Yanqiao spoke, Shen Zhenguo, who had been all smiles, immediately turned cold. The people around him, though still appearing calm, had already sensed something amiss and were now intently waiting for Xiaoxiao's reply.
