Another divorce?
Shi Xi wanted to say something but hesitated. She turned her head and said in a muffled voice, “I’ll go down first.”
Hua Xuanhe raised his eyebrows. “Aren’t you going to see Xie Yunzhou?”
“Since he’s busy, let’s wait.” Shi Xi knew that Xie Yunzhou was required for work.
He couldn’t keep a cold face to everyone, right?
Harmony breeds wealth.
Hua Xuanhe did not say anything. He only glanced at Xie Yunzhou from afar before following Shi Xi down to the first floor.
Xie Yunzhou sensed that someone was looking at him.
However, there were many people at the banquet and Yan Linlang kept talking to him, so he was not distracted.
“Yunzhou, I’ve always thought highly of you. As expected, you’ve obtained control of the Xie family.” Yan Linlang was mature and elegant. Her arms squeezed out of her wide cleavage, and she exuded the charm of a mature woman.
“Sister Linlang, you must be joking. I’m only temporarily taking over the Xie Corporation.” Xie Yunzhou smiled.
Yan Linlang’s eyes were like silk. “I happen to have a project here and I want to work with you. Do you want to talk about it tonight?”
Xie Yunzhou became vigilant. “I’ve just taken over the Xie Corporation and haven’t even started working yet. I don’t have time to do new projects.”
“It’s a big business to make money.” Yan Linlang brushed her hair and stepped forward, stuffing something into Xie Yunzhou’s pocket. “I’ll wait for you tonight.”
Xie Yunzhou felt a headache coming on.
He glanced at the stairs beside him and saw Hua Xuanhe coming down.
He seemed to have seen Xi Xi just now.
Xie Yunzhou touched his pocket. It was a card.
He had a headache.
It was too difficult to deal with.
Xie Yunzhou was about to go downstairs to look for Shi Xi, but he was stopped by the others halfway.
After a few perfunctory words, Xie Yunzhou went down to the first floor and scanned the entire place, but he did not find any traces of Shi Xi.
Xie Zhongshan pressed on his shoulder and asked, “What did Linlang say to you just now?”
Xie Yunzhou frowned slightly. “It’s nothing. She just wanted to say hello.”
“Linlang’s father has a high position and high prestige,” Xie Zhongshan warned.
“I’ve only heard of someone being highly respected. I need to take this call,” Xie Yunzhou said coldly.
“You!”
Xie Yunzhou’s phone did not ring at all. He went to a quiet place and called Shi Xi.
He seemed to have seen Shi Xi just now, but she had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He wanted to confirm.
After the call was made, no one answered for a long time.
Xie Yunzhou dialed again.

Seeing that Shi Xi was about to leave, Hua Xuanhe sent her outside and said, “Aren’t you here to see Xie Yunzhou? Why don’t you want to see him?”
“I’m a little tired. I want to go back and rest early. I’ll get the chauffeur to send me back first. You can continue attending the banquet,” Shi Xi said when she reached the car.
She did not want to affect Hua Xuanhe because of her.
“It’s okay. There are many such banquets. It doesn’t matter if you don’t attend one.” Hua Xuanhe opened the car door and let Shi Xi get in first.
After Shi Xi got into the car, Hua Xuanhe asked again, “Are you really not going to meet Xie Yunzhou?”
She had rushed over to attend the banquet to see Xie Yunzhou.
In the end, she only saw Xie Yunzhou talking to another woman and wanted to go back.
Shi Xi leaned against the back of the chair. “I didn’t tell him before I came. Lie might be unhappy if I came over so suddenly.”
“Still thinking for him?” Hua Xuanhe stopped persuading her and got into the car. “Let’s go to Wanhao for dinner. It’s nearby.”
Shi Xi nodded casually.
They had not eaten anything at the banquet just now.
Her phone rang. When Shi Xi saw that it was Xie Yunzhou calling, she hesitated for a moment and did not pick up.
Hua Xuanhe watched from the side, his eyebrows raised slightly..
