She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

"You don't need that many to shut someone up, what a waste of food." Zhou Yufan seized the opportunity to unleash his sharp tongue.

"You...you guys...!" Jiang Shiyi covered her burning and numb face, feeling like she was about to explode!

She wanted to yell at them, but the other party was two men, especially the one who threw the cake at her—he was cold, hard, and strong, and she was genuinely scared.

Unable to vent her anger, and thinking of her current disheveled state, she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself right there!

Shame, anger, and anxiety mingled together, quickly bringing tears to Jiang Shiyi's eyes, which then streamed through her fingers.

Those two men were clearly Fang Li's men; they did it on purpose!

She looked at Han Xi helplessly and pitifully, her eyes misty with tears as she gazed at him with a pitiful expression. Her voice trembled with grievance: "Sir, did you see that? These two men are Xu Fangli's men. They're all having illicit affairs with Xu Fangli! They can bully people like this in public; you can only imagine what they do in private..."

"Are you finished?"

Jiang Shiyi: "......"

Han Xi's thin lips moved slightly, his eyelids lowered, and he looked down at the stunned and stiff Jiang Shiyi as if she were a corpse.

"Unfortunately, I don't have the habit of not hitting women."

No one knew that in Han Xi's eyes, apart from Fang Li and his mother, all other women could only be referred to as people.

And some people are clearly not even human.

As soon as he finished speaking, the long, straight leg encased in trousers suddenly lifted up, and the shiny leather shoe, as if it had been holding back for a long time, kicked out directly.

Jiang Shiyi was kicked straight out from the waist!

Seeing this, the people behind her quickly made way for a large open space, and then Jiang Shiyi cried out in pain and fell to the ground.

"...Why...?!" She clutched her stomach, her face contorted in pain and filled with disbelief.

"You should be glad that today is Wenxi Film and Television's home turf, otherwise you wouldn't even have the chance to ask why."

The icy voice almost shattered Jiang Shiyi's last hope. The voice was low and not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone present. In an instant, those who had been talking about Fang Li felt a chill run down their spines, and the entire banquet hall fell silent.

Jiang Shiyi clutched her stomach and curled up on the ground, as if her soul had been ripped out. She alternated between crying and laughing. Suddenly, she remembered something and looked up, searching through the crowd.

Seeing this, Yu Wei quickly pulled Song Yuchen deeper into the crowd to avoid him.

“Sister Wei…?!” Jiang Shiyi’s expression froze.

Han Xi's disgust was so intense that he couldn't hide it anymore. He didn't bother to look at her again, turned to face Fang Li, took her hand, and gently pulled her into his arms.

Without turning his head, he said, "Lin Mo, clean up the trash on the ground."

Rubbish? !

Those around them didn't know how to react to the situation.

Lin Mo, however, was already itching to fight. He beckoned two people to him and immediately pushed his way through the crowd.

"take away."

Two tall bodyguards in black obeyed the order, bent down and pulled Jiang Shiyi up from the ground, and tried to drag her out.

Jiang Shiyi, who was still in a daze, suddenly came back to her senses. She never expected that she would be the one rejected in the end. It turned out that the man had never paid any attention to her in the first place!

He would rather believe that bitch Xu Fangli than even look at her!

why?

Why!

Jiang Shiyi's eyes were bloodshot, her face full of resentment. No longer caring about her image, she struggled and shouted, "You'll regret this! She's a bitch, a jealous and vicious woman. If you keep protecting her like this, you'll be deceived by her and lose everything sooner or later!"

Lin Mo had had enough. He coldly rebuked the two bodyguards, "Hurry up and take them away!"

The bodyguards quickly grabbed her and tried to leave, but Jiang Shiyi stubbornly twisted her body, shouting, "Let me go! I won't leave, why should I leave!"

The bodyguard was as strong as an ox; how could she possibly break free?

The two ignored her completely, dragged her through the crowd, and walked away.

Jiang Shiyi panicked completely. Although recording was not allowed inside the banquet hall tonight, there were media from all walks of life gathered at the entrance. If she went out like this, she might as well not live tomorrow!

how so? !

She couldn't understand why, when it was clearly Xu Fangli, that bitch, who should have been despised, she ended up being the one to be rejected!

As she watched herself drift further and further away from the center, she vaguely realized that she had been wrong from the start; she shouldn't have coveted that god-like man at all.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been blinded by love and recklessly targeted Xu Fangli, only to be thrown out by the person she liked!

"Let me go! I don't want to go out! Ah! Let me go... No, I don't want to go out!"

Jiang Shiyi, her face covered in cream, cried with tears streaming down her face.

If she's thrown out like that, she's really finished!

"I'm sorry... I was wrong, I was wrong! Don't throw me out..."

Unfortunately, although she was forced to admit her mistake, no one dared to take responsibility. Everyone watched indifferently, and even those who felt sorry for her remained silent, afraid of being implicated.

Amidst a chorus of sighs, Jiang Shiyi was simply dragged out.

The huge banquet hall had never been so quiet. Everyone looked uneasily at the man in the center of the crowd, holding their breath and not daring to make a sound.

On the second floor of the banquet hall, which has a semi-open design, several figures stood on the railing, watching the farce unfold with great interest.

Han Chunxi held her wine glass, looking thoughtfully at Fang Li, who was being protected in Han Xi's arms, and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Jian Yunqi, standing beside her, clicked his tongue repeatedly: "So this is the woman who made Xiu Jin abandon even his brothers. Indeed, she's quite eye-catching."

Deng Xiulin looked at Fang Li, who was being protected by Han Xi, and a smile appeared in his eyes as well.

However, no one noticed that Vito, who was on the far right, was a little different. His face was full of surprise, and his eyes were filled with surging madness.

Without turning his head, he eagerly reached out his hand: "Quickly, bring me my sketchbook!"

The assistant behind him nodded and hurriedly took out a sketchbook from his bag and handed it to him.

Vito took the notebook, glanced at Fang Li who was half-hidden in the dim light, and immediately buried his head and began to quickly sketch on the paper.

downstairs.

"What Jiang Shiyi said..." Fang Li's voice was low as she looked down at their clasped hands.

Han Xi's dark eyes softened, and a slight smile played on his lips: "I know everything."

"Huh?" Fang Li looked up at him.

In an instant, her gaze fell into his deep eyes, drawn to his profound pupil color. She was stunned as she listened to him say, "I know very well what kind of person you are. I don't need anyone to say anything more, and I will never allow anyone to slander you."

Fang Li's pupils flickered, and her cheeks felt hot for a moment.

She hastily looked away and said, "Thank you for believing me."

"that's it?"

Fang Li's lips twitched, and she said in a slightly unnatural, soft voice, "Then what else do you want?"
