Fu Tingzhou looked at her with a ’what else?’ expression.
Tang Xi took the card and suddenly noticed the Fu’s logo at the bottom right corner on the back of the card. She realized, "This store is under Fu’s group?"
Fu Tingzhou corrected her in an indifferent tone, "This mall is under Fu’s group."
Then, his voice seemed to carry a hint of disdain and helplessness, "You are the lady of this mall. You come here, and you still care about such a small membership fee?"
"A profiteer is a profiteer. The kids play here for a bit; does it have to be so expensive? Plus, bundling these so-called family classes and educational quotas... what education spots..." Tang Xi murmured a few complaints. Then she suddenly fell silent, and after several seconds, frowned, "I have nothing to do with you."
"Does sleeping together count as nothing?" His voice deepened as he looked at her.
"Your screams were louder than anyone’s, you clearly enjoyed it, you wanted it too, didn’t you?"
Tang Xi’s face flushed, "We are in a public place, Fu Tingzhou, can you not! Not think about these things!"
"If we hadn’t done these things, where would our daughter come from? Tang Xi, how many times have we slept together over the years, and was it always me forcing you?"
Tang Xi was speechless by his words.
Fu Tingzhou didn’t linger on the topic but instead said, "Wednesday night, accompany me to a place."
When Wednesday evening came, after Tang Xi got off work and was ready to leave with her things, Fang Yuan mentioned that Ou Qianqian’s birthday was coming up, and he planned to prepare a gift for her. Although their relationship was average, they were colleagues and should show some courtesy.
He planned to take Tang Xi to shop at the mall tonight.
Tang Xi had an event to attend with Fu Tingzhou that night, so she made plans with Fang Yuan for the next day.
She avoided her colleagues and went down to the underground parking lot.
Shen Duan handed her a handbag, "Inside is the evening dress Mr. Fu prepared for you tonight, go change in the car."
Looking at the clothes inside, Tang Xi saw a silver-white gown that looked understated but with extremely fine details, a new runway model from a well-known brand.
After changing, she opened the car door, "Where is Fu Tingzhou?"
"Mr. Fu should be arriving soon. Tonight’s banquet..." Shen Duan glanced at Tang Xi, "Just stick with Mr. Fu."
Tang Xi felt there was more to what Shen Duan said.
Although she didn’t like attending these events, she was not inexperienced either.
It’s just that Shen Duan’s words made it seem like she was attending such a banquet for the first time...
Shen Duan drove quickly and arrived at the destination in minutes.
As Tang Xi walked in, the first thing she saw was an exhibition sign at the entrance.
It was a gift from the hotel.
"Four Seasons Pearl congratulates Miss Shu on her return from studying abroad."
Tang Xi’s steps halted.
She stared at the words "Miss Shu" for a long time without looking away.
Considering the luxury cars parked outside and the high-end private estate with a constant flow of socialites and elite businessmen, it wasn’t hard for her to guess who Miss Shu was.
Her fingers clenched tightly as Shen Duan approached, "Tang Xi, you must have guessed by now, this is Shu Mengshu’s celebration banquet for her return from studying abroad."
Upon hearing the name Shu Mengshu again, Tang Xi couldn’t help revealing a smile.
Cold and indifferent.
She looked at Shen Duan, "Where is Fu Tingzhou?"
"Mr. Fu is probably not here yet due to traffic. He had golf this afternoon with President An in the east of the city..." Shen Duan continued, following Tang Xi’s steps toward the banquet hall.
Then, Tang Xi’s voice, carrying a cold laugh, rose, "Then call Fu Tingzhou and have him hurry over. After all, the woman he’s been longing for in his heart is back."
She knew Fu Tingzhou had amnesia.
She knew that Fu Tingzhou didn’t remember the past.
But the information Fu Tingzhou had obtained should clearly spell out his relationship with Su Mengshu and the Su Family. She didn’t believe Fu Tingzhou hadn’t realized her poor relationship with the Su Family. Yet tonight, he was still going to bring her to Su Mengshu’s banquet!
She didn’t know what Su Mengshu had been through, suddenly turning into the daughter of a wealthy family.
None of that affects her disgust for Su Mengshu and her hatred for the Su Family!
Shen Duan looked at Tang Xi with a complicated expression, seeing the cold smile on her beautifully made-up face.
Soon, a master of ceremonies took the stage.
Then, the current head of the Shu Family, Shu Yiming, took the stage and spoke a few official words, thanking the friends who came.
