Chapter 242 - Sorry, My Husband Will Be Jealous
“Sir, would you like to dance with me?”
“No.” Looking at Mo Fei, who was walking away, my mind was muddy, and I refused the invitation of a woman next to me without turning my face. I couldn’t tell whether it was showing off or mocking myself, I said, “didn’t you see that I already have a girlfriend?”
The thoughts of rich women were really strange. They didn’t even know me, but they wanted to invite me to dance. Was it because I was handsome so they wanted to take advantage of me? I already had a bad impression about women who were not reserved. If you ask me to take advantage of them, I would have no problem with that, but I didn’t like being taken advantage of by them. . .
This strange sense of superiority made me feel very ashamed of myself. ‘God damn it, Chu Nan, you are really getting more and more shameless. . .’
“She is your girlfriend?” The female voice beside me suddenly asked, “Whose girlfriend is Cheng Liusu?”
“Mine!” I subconsciously responded. Then I was startled like a frightened rabbit and jumped a step away. After I could see who the beautiful woman in black evening dress was, I was very surprised, “It’s you? !”
Today was really a strange day. I didn’t know Long Xiaotian, but I kept meeting acquaintances at his birthday banquets. First, it was the two young masters from the Zhang family, then it was Liu Xiaosheng, and then it was Mo Fei. But it was still quite understandable to meet those people. After all, they were all businessmen, living in the same business circle. What surprised me most was the person in front of me. I couldn’t get in touch with her all day, but I didn’t expect that I would be able to see her here!
She was wearing a black low-cut dress, revealing a lot of skin. A thin strap over the shoulder accentuated the sexy design of the dress. The layered knee-length hem was overlapping each other, tightly wrapping around the two beautiful legs without losing the smooth outline of her figure. Coupled with slender calves, black stockings, and pointed silver high heels, her exquisite figure looked even more perfect in this outfit, exuding endless charms.
The combination of her clothes complemented her healthy and slightly tanned skin color. At the moment, she looked elegant and bright, gorgeous and alluring. What made me want to laugh was not only the sudden change in her dressing style, but also because of her long black hair. The neat bangs on her forehead were quite similar to that of Dongfang brat, just covering her eyebrows. However, the feeling that Dongfang brat gave to people was fashionable, playful, and cute, but the one in front of me. . . Why did I feel like I was looking at a foolish village girl? Apart from “funny”, I really couldn’t find any other words to describe this hairstyle. Besides. . . Didn’t she have short hair? How did her hair grow so fast in just one day?
It was a wig! I finally realized it, and the beauty also realized why I was biting my lip. Her face blushed, her eyes were filled with anger, she gritted her teeth and warned in a low voice, “If you dare to laugh, I will kick you to death!”
“Okay, ok- Pff…” I couldn’t help but burst out laughing, “Sister Xiaoye, why are you dressed like this?”
Yes, this beauty was Sister Tiger Dong Xiaoye!
Dong Xiaoye’s face was flushed with embarrassment, and she subconsciously used her hands to cover her naked shoulders, “What’s wrong with this dress?”
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing,” I also felt that I was too rude, and sincerely praised, “You look very pretty, I almost didn’t recognize you at a glance. This dress suits you well.”
Dong Xiaoye rolled her eyes at me, feeling both shy and proud, “Of course, this suit was rented, and it costs two thousand eight hundred a day. . .”
Rented? I was dazed for a moment and smiled, “Well then, it is definitely worth it. No wonder people always say clothes make the woman.”
“Exactly. . . my ass!” Dong Xiaoye lifted her leg and wanted to kick me, “this old lady is born beautiful. Her beauty doesn’t need to be set off by clothes.”
I laughed and took a small step back. Dong Xiaoye was restrained by the dress, unable to have big movements. Failing to kick me, she was even more annoyed. At this moment, a handsome man approached me and said, “Miss, would you like to dance with me?”
“I’m sorry,” Dong Xiaoye suddenly changed her expression and said with a ladylike smile, and she took my arm and said to the man, “My husband will be jealous.”
The man suddenly looked embarrassed and apologized to me, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t know she is your wife. . .”
When the man walked away, I couldn’t help but frown, “Sister Xiaoye, so you are interested in younger men like me? Are you trying to take advantage of me?”
“What do you mean younger men? Are you courting death? I am only twenty. . .” Dong Xiaoye almost said her age again. She suddenly pinched my arm very hard and complained, “I’ve been invited to dance more than twenty times. It’s so annoying. I’ll just use you as a shield.”
It was undeniable that after carefully dressed up tonight, Dong Xiaoye was indeed very glamorous. Confident, proud, and noble, she was like a queen. Although I was very clear that she had just hidden her wild nature. . .
“You just said that you almost didn’t recognize me at a glance. So, it means that you do recognize me very quickly, right?”
I was confused why she would ask this question, “Yes. What’s the matter?” What was so strange about this? Even if ignoring her voice, her characteristic eyes, and her tanned skin, plus the name of Cheng Liusu she said earlier, how would I not be able to recognize her?
Dong Xiaoye let go of my arm, adjusted her wig, and snorted angrily, “Those idiots, who have been working together with me for four years, it took them a long time to recognize me, but you. . .” Dong Xiaoye suddenly stopped, turned her face, and glared at me. She blushed all of sudden.
Those idiots? A thought suddenly came into my mind and I pretended to be dumb and asked, “You came here with your boyfriend?”
“Who said I have a boyfriend. . . Bah, your little brat, you want to trick me into telling you something, right? ” Dong Xiaoye denied it instinctively. Her overreaction surprised me a bit. Then she suddenly assumed a serious face and asked me, “Why did you come to attend Long Xiaotian’s birthday party? Don’t tell me that Miss Mo invited you here, Little Chu, I am warning you, if you dare to cheat on Liusu, I will make you sorry for it!”
“What are you thinking? Like you, I ran into her by accident. . .” Startled, I hurriedly told her how I came to the banquet, and how I met Mo Fei. Since the day Liusu met Sister Tiger, they were like best friends to each other; they told everything to each other. If she really told Liusu about this, it would be strange if Liusu didn’t get angry at me.
Dong Xiaoye said in surprise, “So, you were the one who beat people in the front yard and caused trouble in the backyard?”
I didn’t say that I met Long Yifan, Liu Xiaosheng, and Mo Fei in the backyard. Dong Xiaoye’s question confirmed the suspicion in my heart. “It seems that your station has deployed a lot of police here. . .”
“How do you know?” Dong Xiaoye’s nervous reaction was tantamount to a confession.
“Isn’t that obvious? Otherwise, why are you here if you are not invited?” I sighed and said again, “Moreover, I just heard from an employee of the manor that someone sent a threatening letter to Long Xiaotian, threatening to cause trouble today, and the Long family has already called the police. . .”
Having said this, the scene where Long Yifan and Butler Gao rushed to the back garden with the security team suddenly flashed in my mind. A thought suddenly flashed in my mind and I felt that something was amiss. However, the feeling was very vague, so I couldn’t tell exactly what it was.
“If they had called the police, we wouldn’t have had so much headache. . .” I was dazed by Dong Xiaoye’s words, but since it was police business, she didn’t tell me much. She simply said to me with a straight face, “Since you also know that something bad may happen, then don’t stay here to scrounge free food. Last time, you have made more than one million off that Young Master Zhang, if you want to eat something, you can buy it yourself. Hurry up and go home.”
If Dong Xiaoye knew that I had just made another one million off Zhang Mingjie, she would definitely be jealous again. . .
“You think I’m a beggar and I am just here to eat free food? Don’t be so paranoid. Probably it will not happen, so you don’t need to be so nervous.” I smiled and said, “Besides, even if you don’t tell me, I won’t stay here either. But I need to wait for Mo Fei to come back. Otherwise, you want me to get out of this mountain resort just using my legs?”
To stay with each other, Guo Xiang and Xingyu were bound to experience many hardships in the future, but their biggest obstacle has been removed. The sky was covered with brilliant stars tonight, and both of them were in a ‘great mood’, eager to be with each other and away from other people. Even if I was someone who lacked a sense of romance? I still felt embarrassed to be the third wheel.
“Things are not as simple as you think. You should listen to me and leave here as soon as possible.” Dong Xiaoye winked her big eyes at me and suddenly asked, “Little Chu, tell me the truth, is there really nothing between you and Mo Fei?”
“I just want a free ride,” I smiled bitterly. “What kind of relationship do you think we have?”
“As Liusu’s sister, I certainly hope that there is nothing going on between you two. . .” Dong Xiaoye murmured, then smiled at me, “I’ll wait for her with you, and see you out personally, then I will not be worried.”
Bullshit! She still doubted me and Mo Fei in her heart. She clearly wanted to keep her eyes on me for Liusu.
“Xiaoye, you are here. I finally found you. . .” I was about to decline Dong Xiaoye’s ‘goodwill’ when a young man in a suit and leather shoes trotted excitedly with two glasses of grape juice, his face smiled like a blooming flower. . .
At first glance, I knew that this tough, sharp-faced young man was interested in Dong Xiaoye. He handed over a glass of grape juice and flattered, “Are you tired? Come, drink something. Hehe, don’t worry, the noise just now is a misunderstanding. It seems that a hillbilly boyfriend of a rich lady had a conflict with a butler. Long Yifan personally went over to deal with it. It is not a suspicious person, captain Lin asked me to tell you that there is nothing unusual.”
Hillbilly? Originally, I didn’t have a bad impression of this sunny man, but the person he talked about was me, so I was a little dissatisfied. Dong Xiaoye also felt embarrassed. She frowned and didn’t take over the drink, “Wang Jie, watch what you are saying, and don’t speak that loud, in case other people find out that we are the police.”
Then Wang Jie realized that Dong Xiaoye and I seemed to know each other. A glimmer of vigilance flashed in his eyes, but it was not because of the information he disclosed, “Xiaoye, who is he?”
This guy was really straightforward, both his words and his expression were filled with jealousy. Maybe I had seen too many hypocritical rich young masters tonight, I couldn’t help but feel a little bit amused after suddenly meeting a forthright man. Although he was not very polite, this kind of behavior actually gave me an amiable feeling. After thinking for a few seconds, I knew that this man was not some young master. He was probably also a policeman like Dong Xiaoye. I smiled and reached out my hand, “Hello, I am Xiaoye’s friend…”
“You think you are her friend just because you can strike up a conversation with her? I’ve seen a lot of shameless people, but it is the first time I’ve seen someone as shameless as you.” Obviously, this guy mistook me as a young master who attempted to hit on Dong Xiaoye. With that deterrent and resolute face, he said coldly to me, “Don’t you know that she has a boyfriend?”
