The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

"Just wait for me."

Wenwen noticed that there were many people coming and going around her, mostly rich kids and people she couldn't afford to offend.

If she were to act too arrogantly in this place, it would be very disadvantageous for her, so she squeezed out those words through gritted teeth and immediately walked inside.

Seeing Wenwen leave, Mu Ya'an breathed a sigh of relief, then took out her phone and made a call to Zhao Quan.

"Young Master Zhao, I've arrived at the Zhao family's gate, but I was stopped by security personnel..."

The noise from Zhao Quan's side was very loud. After hearing what Mu Ya'an said, he then replied.

"I'll have a servant come out to fetch you right away."

He hung up the phone before Mu Ya'an could say anything.

Tonight, many internet celebrities and artists attended Zhao Quan's birthday party. Zhao Quan likes to hang out in the escort circle, and Wenwen can be said to be a big internet celebrity in the escort circle. Many internet celebrities were brought up by her.

Cheng Shiman and Wen Wen have a good relationship, which indirectly leads to a good relationship between Cheng Shiman and Zhao Quan as well.

Mu Ya'an was completely unaware of all of this beforehand.

After entering Zhao Quan's birthday banquet, she was led by a servant through the crowd to where Zhao Quan was.

Zhao Quan was surrounded by several spoiled young men and a group of internet celebrities.

They were chatting and laughing, all dressed in brightly colored formal wear.

Mu Ya'an was only wearing a pair of ordinary jeans and a cream-colored shirt.

When Mu Ya'an arrived, everyone's eyes fell on her.

Mu Ya'an used to be a celebrity in H City, but now that the Mu family has fallen on hard times, people look at Mu Ya'an with more of amusement and mockery, waiting to see what happens.

Cheng Shiman sat opposite Zhao Quan, while Wen Wen sat next to Cheng Shiman.

Upon seeing Mu Ya'an enter, Cheng Shiman raised an eyebrow, slowly stood up, and scrutinized Mu Ya'an from head to toe with a hint of surprise on her face.

"Ya'an, why are you dressed like this?"

Compared to all the people present who were dressed in custom-made gowns and suits, Mu Ya'an's outfit did indeed look too shabby.

Mu Ya'an calmly looked at Cheng Shiman, glanced at her indifferently, and then looked at Zhao Quan.

When Mu Ya'an first arrived here and saw Zhao Quan and Cheng Shiman sitting there chatting and laughing, she had already guessed what was going on.

The reason she received Zhao Quan's call was entirely arranged by Cheng Shiman.

Seeing that Mu Ya'an was treating her as if she didn't exist, Cheng Shiman's expression changed slightly, and then she said softly.

"Even if you don't have a dress to wear right now, you can always borrow one from me. We've been friends for so many years, do you think I wouldn't even lend you a dress?"

Upon hearing Cheng Shiman's words, everyone smiled and pursed their lips, eager to see how Mu Ya'an would respond.

However, Mu Ya'an merely glanced at Cheng Shiman and said in a low voice.

"If I wear something you've already worn, I'm afraid it will embarrass you."

"..."

Everyone looked puzzled.

Cheng Shiman looked at Mu Ya'an with a puzzled expression.

Mu Ya'an pursed her lips and said softly.

“Over the years, media reporters have always liked to compare me with you. I’m afraid that if I wear your dress, those media will dig up your old photos and try to sabotage me. You must feel pretty bad about that.”

It's not scary to wear the same outfit as someone else; what's more embarrassing is who looks worse. Everyone understands this principle.

When Mu Ya'an spoke these words with such confidence, everyone's expressions were filled with surprise.

Zhao Quan originally looked down on Mu Ya'an's type.

They are nothing more than tools cultivated by wealthy and powerful families to perpetuate the family's interests; they are weak and easily bullied.

It's unexpected that Mu Ya'an, who is always elegant and poised, would have this side to her.

I have never seen her so sharp-tongued and sarcastic in public.

Zhao Quan raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips, and then said in a low voice.

"Miss Mu is indeed Miss Mu; even at this point, she is still so confident."

Mu Ya'an looked calmly at Zhao Quan and said in a low voice.

"Can the content of our previous conversation on the phone still be considered valid, Mr. Zhao?"

Upon hearing Mu Ya'an's words, Zhao Quan raised an eyebrow slightly, then put down his wine glass and nodded.

"Natural numbers are used."

He paused for a moment, glanced at the seats beside him, and said in a deep voice.

"However, it won't be easy to get this money from me. I've known Miss Mu for so long, but I've never seen her drunk before. Today is my birthday, so why don't you satisfy my curiosity?"

What would a dignified and elegant young lady be like after getting drunk?

Zhao Quan had always been very curious.

Especially someone like Mu Ya'an, who was raised as a tool by the Mu family since childhood, would be very interesting if he got drunk.

While Zhao Quan was speaking, the servant beside him had already begun clearing the table and taking out a wine bottle to pour wine.

As Mu Ya'an watched the empty glasses on the table being filled with wine, she felt a strange sense of unease.

She doesn't have a high alcohol tolerance, so she has rarely touched alcohol over the years.

Seeing that Mu Ya'an was still standing there, Zhao Quan glanced at the model beside him and said in a low voice.

"Please move aside and let Miss Mu sit next to me."

The model, who had a good figure, was somewhat dissatisfied with Zhao Quan's words, but since Zhao Quan was showing great curiosity towards Mu Ya'an, she dared not disobey and could only awkwardly get up.

Within this circle, girlfriends and female companions come and go like flowing water. Anyone who slightly angers Zhao Quan may never be able to step into this circle again.

Therefore, the models dared not have any objections.

Mu Ya'an looked at the empty seat next to Zhao Quan, took a deep breath, and her eyes hardened.

“I can satisfy Young Master Zhao’s curiosity, but I hope that Young Master Zhao can transfer this 500,000 to my account first.”

Zhao Quan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

"can."

For him, 500,000 was just one night's expenses at a nightclub.

Therefore, Zhao Quan did not hesitate at all and immediately nodded in agreement.

After being scammed yesterday, Mu Ya'an was much more clear-headed. Seeing Zhao Quan nod, she then took out a card reader from her handbag.

"Young Master Zhao, please swipe your card."

Seeing that Mu Ya'an had prepared so thoroughly, Zhao Quan smiled sarcastically and then said indifferently.

"Is Miss Mu worried that I can't afford the 500,000?"

Mu Ya'an shook her head, her tone calm and gentle.

"No, I'm worried that if I get drunk, I won't be able to collect the money. It's better to keep the money in my hands while I'm sober. Young Master Zhao knows that I'm short of money right now."

Seeing that Mu Ya'an was talking to Zhao Quan so fluently, and that Zhao Quan was readily agreeing to lend Mu Ya'an money, Cheng Shiman immediately reached out to stop Zhao Quan from entering the password.

“What if you take this money and then refuse to drink later? Young Master Zhao, let’s wait and see, and give you the money later.”

Mu Ya'an looked at Cheng Shiman calmly, knowing that Cheng Shiman was deliberately going against her, and then said softly.

"This is Young Master Zhao's territory. Does Young Master Zhao really have to worry about being cheated on his own turf?"

Cheng Shiman narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at Mu Ya'an, feeling that Mu Ya'an seemed to have changed somewhat over the past two days.

But she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.
