Onlookers couldn’t help but tease, "Senior Brother Shi is as considerate as ever~"
"Yeah, Xiaoxia, we’re all so jealous of you~"
Chuxia looked at the two classmates who had spoken and offered a slight smile, without saying a word.
Li Qian sat down beside Chuxia, her beautiful eyes glaring intently at her. Seeing the slight smile on Chuxia’s lips, she just wanted to tear her face apart.
In a fit of anger, Li Qian grabbed the champagne in front of her and gulped it down. Putting down the glass forcefully, she turned to Shi Che and blurted out recklessly out of anger, "Senior Brother Shi, you’ve really been quite the lucky man lately. I heard just a while ago that you brought a super beautiful woman to President Chen’s birthday party. Oh, and I heard that the red dress she wore was specially ordered by you. You really went to great lengths, didn’t you?"
They wanted to pretend to be in love, right? Let’s see how they keep up the act now!
Chuxia didn’t expect that Li Qian would know even this. She thought Li Qian was just bluffing based on a few reports she had read in newspapers and magazines. She didn’t expect her to know about the dress too...
Suddenly, Chuxia felt a bit nervous. After all, her relationship with Shi Che was indeed not good; they couldn’t truly assert themselves righteously. She glanced at Shi Che subconsciously. His face was expressionless, showing no emotion.
But no matter what, she couldn’t let Li Qian disrupt their facade. She took a deep breath, lifted her eyes to Li Qian, and her lips formed a faint smile. Then, in a gentle voice, word by word, she responded, "Li Qian, when a man is out, some socializing is inevitably just for show, isn’t it? Doesn’t your husband often go out to socialize? Does he take you with him every time?"
Chuxia knew that Li Qian’s husband hardly ever took Li Qian with him when socializing, so with that remark, Li Qian was left speechless.
After a moment, Chuxia added, "Pretending is fine, but if it gets real, then one really needs to be careful."
Even though Shi Che had been caught up in various tabloid scandals, none of them showed him hugging and kissing another woman in intimate photos. In contrast, Li Qian’s husband was involved in every kind of explosive scandal—passionate kiss-gate, car-shock-gate, you name it. Compared to that, Shi Che’s minor tabloid news was nothing.
Li Qian, choked by Chuxia’s retorts, flushed crimson with cheeks swollen, a look in her eyes that could kill Chuxia, yet she couldn’t utter another word.
Chuxia nonchalantly turned her face back and continued eating her own meal. Meanwhile, Shi Che glanced at Chuxia with his dark eyes, noticing the triumphant slyness hidden in her eyes, and his lips curved subtly into a smile.
