Sheng Yize and Gu Zichen turned their gazes on her in unison.
Feng Rui looked terrified as she realized how indiscreet that remark was. She apologized right away. “I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have said that. Mr. Sheng, please…”
She tried to talk herself out of the situation by playing cute, but Sheng Yize frowned, shutting her up with his intimidating aura.
Song s.h.i.+ happened to stroll by at that moment. His amorous eyes twinkled and he looked like someone who was riding the wave of success.
“Why, my dear sister, you’re here as well.” He greeted An Xiaxia in a frivolous tone, but immediately shuddered at the stern glance Sheng Yize gave him.
“What’s going on? I sense a lot of anger.” Song s.h.i.+ drew his neck in.
“What’s the deal between the two of you?” Sheng Yize darted a look at Li Fanxing, who was socializing a short distance away.
Song s.h.i.+ said absentmindedly, “A pretty woman offered herself to me willingly. I have no reason to turn her down, do I?”
An Xiaxia didn’t like that tone.
Sheng Yize didn’t like his att.i.tude either. “Why waste each other’s time if you don’t like her?”
“Not everyone is as lucky as the two of you. It’s not true love between the two of us. It’s just a partners.h.i.+p.” Song s.h.i.+ grinned cheekily, then moved closer and rubbed An Xiaxia’s head. “Little sister, keep an eye on your hubby. Look, he even has a female secretary! I always hire male ones as soon as I get a girlfriend!”
Sheng Yize smirked. “You’re only doing that out of guilt. I bet nine out of ten of your secretaries were your girlfriends once.”
Song s.h.i.+ rubbed his nose in embarra.s.sment.
An Xiaxia smacked her lips in amazement. “All male ones? I pity your girlfriends, then. They have to be careful with both women and men around you…”
Pffft —
Song s.h.i.+ couldn’t keep his composure anymore and jumped to his feet. “I’m not into guys!”
“But you can’t be sure that men aren’t into you,” Gu Zichen sipped at his wine and said unhurriedly.
With Idol Gu joining the other team, Song s.h.i.+ admitted his defeat right away.
“Well, I’ll leave you in peace. Off I go!” He couldn’t beat them in banter, but he could at least run away!
Sheng Yize watched as Song s.h.i.+ walked away and sighed. “What an idiot. Taking advantage of Li Fanxing? More likely he’s the one being taken advantage of.”
Li Fanxing moved deftly through the crowd like a b.u.t.terfly, apparently an expert in socializing.
Gu Zichen smiled quietly. He then patted Sheng Yize on the shoulder and walked off.
“Mr. Sheng!” Standing on tiptoe, Feng Rui looked at Sheng Yize expectantly.
An Xiaxia was speechless. Excuse me? Miss Homewrecker, use your brain, please? Are you really going to hit on my husband when I’m still here?
Just then, a middle-aged man went up to them and greeted Sheng Yize with a smile. “h.e.l.lo, Mr. Sheng. Where are we with the business proposal from last time?”
“Oh?” Sheng Yize raised an eyebrow. He remembered nothing about any such doc.u.ment from this company.
Feng Rui darted a diffident look at the man when the man rubbed his hands and said, “Mr. Sheng must be too busy to remember it. It was that proposal about Cangyun Villa Estate. I’ll give you another 3% discount. Is Mr. Sheng interested?”
Sheng Yize smiled. “That’s very generous of you. Let’s talk in detail later.”
The man was elated. “Why, thank you, Mr. Sheng! By the way, you’ve got a great secretary there. She took very good care of me the last time and I heard you two are…”
He darted a suggestive look at Sheng Yize and Miss Feng. Sheng Yize revealed nothing on his face when he said, “Let me introduce you to my wife.”
His voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough for everyone around them to hear it.
Under the man’s astonished gaze, Sheng Yize raised his voice. “My wife is An Xiaxia.”
