Author:?Su Zhishui?MACHINE TRANSLATION
Speaking up to this point, Xia Mingzhu sniffled a few more times and started to pretend to cry. “I might have been strangled to death by fourth sister… mom… ”
All these years, she had followed Xia Jitian in the officialdom. Xia Mingzhu had not learned anything else, but she had learned a lot about the art of controlling people and how to control people’s hearts.
She knew too well the darkness in Hong Xianglin’s heart. She also knew that she had been holding a grudge for the death of her second daughter. She also knew that she was jealous of her father’s deep affection for Xia Jinqi’s mother. She had even been deceived by her father and mistakenly thought that Xia Jinqi was really her daughter!
This was too complicated. Even she herself was unwilling to understand it, let alone Hong Xianglin, who was the person involved?
It was all because of Xia Mingzhu’s words that she transferred all the hatred onto Xia Jinqi.
“Mingzhu, Mommy’s good daughter. Mommy will definitely not let you get hurt! Don’t worry, Mommy has plenty of ways to deal with her! ”
As expected, Hong Xianglin Hugged Xia Mingzhu and sobbed. At the same time, her hatred for Xia Jinqi deepened.
When Xia Mingzhu heard this, a sinister smile finally appeared on her face.
“…”
Xia Jinqi was still a little out of it when she came down from upstairs.
She felt that her worldview was about to be overturned when she came back tonight.
So many things had happened before. Xia Tianjiao, Yan Qing, each of them had brought her and Yan Jun such a great disaster and pain.
She thought that she had already overcome all of this. She thought that everything was over.
Who knew that Xia Mingzhu would suddenly jump out and say that she was the one who instigated all of this?
It was simply a blow to her head!
Just how deep was Xia Mingzhu’s scheming?
As Xia Jinqi walked, she unconsciously clenched her fists by her side!
She had not forgotten what Xia Mingzhu had said earlier. ‘Do you believe that I won’t blow you up again? ‘
The threatening tone and ferocious face appeared so vividly in her mind… …
Xia Jinqi furrowed her thin brows. She was afraid that the two children would be hurt again. It was time for her to look for Yan Jun to discuss countermeasures.
Just like that, when she walked into the banquet, Yan Jun was nowhere to be found, but a person walked towards her.
“Miss Xia, where did you go? Did you forget that we had an appointment just now? Are you going to treat me to a drink? ” The faint mocking intent disappeared in an instant.
Xia Jinqi subconsciously raised her eyes, but they met Lu Yiming’s deep, dead-water-like eyes. They were terrifyingly pure black.
She was shocked, and only then did she remember the existence of this person. Her face subconsciously revealed a polite smile. “It’s Mr. Lu… I’m sorry, I was delayed by something just now. ”
With that, she lowered her gaze and tried her best to avoid eye contact with him.
Coincidentally, a waiter with a plate passed by. Xia Jinqi picked up two glasses of wine from the plate and handed one to Lu Yiming. Then, she clinked glasses with him.
“Then, I’ll drink this first as a toast. Thank you, Mr. Lu, for seeing injustice just now and drawing your sword to help. ” After she finished speaking, she took the lead to finish the champagne without caring about anything else.
Lu Yiming silently sized up Xia Jinqi’s bold actions. He also very readily finished the liquid in the glass.
However, after he finished drinking, he took the initiative to invite Xia Jinqi to drink a second glass. “This glass, I propose a toast to Miss Xia’s calmness in the face of danger. A woman is not inferior to a man. ”
Xia Jinqi glanced at the Wine Cup in her hand that was full again and silently cursed in her heart. This kind of business bragging and even bringing along a small cup of wine gave people a feeling of corruption and decadence… …
Seeing that Xia Jinqi hadn’t drunk for a long time, Lu Yiming asked curiously, “why aren’t you drinking? ”
“…”Xia Jinqi was thinking of an excuse to decline when a familiar warm voice came from behind, breaking the awkward situation.
