C85 Too Cruel
"Fengyue, thank you!"
Liang Fengyue responded indifferently, but it was obvious that she wasn't in high spirits. In the end, the dishes were served. Liang Fengyue quickly called for the two of them to come over for dinner. This matter could be considered to have passed.
Jiang Xiyun also couldn't bear to see Liang Fengyue like this. However, since he was in the middle, it was hard for him to say anything, so he could only keep playing along with her.
During the meal, Sheng Yeting went to the bathroom, while Liang Fengyue's face also collapsed.
When she was sure Sheng Yeting couldn't hear her, Liang Fengyue complained, "Brother Xi Yun, tell me, what did I do wrong? Brother Yeting is going to do this to me."
"We grew up together. Don't you know Sheng Yeting? He's just that kind of person, don't think that it has nothing to do with you. " Jiang Xiyun comforted her. In fact, he didn't have much confidence.
Liang Fengyue's expression seemed to ease up, but she still couldn't hide her disappointment. "Of course I know what kind of person he is, but I feel that his heart is very cold and I can't warm it up."
Liang Fengyue couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me that even after so many years, Brother Yeting still won't forget what happened that year?"
Jiang Xiyun was stunned, but he didn't know what to say for a moment. Sheng Yeting never mentioned what had happened that year. Had he really forgotten?
Thinking about this, Jiang Xiyun couldn't help but sigh: "Who knows, how could we have guessed his thoughts?"
Liang Fengyue couldn't help but have a bitter face. Although she knew Jiang Xiyun wouldn't give her an answer, she still couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xi Yun, do you think Brother Yeting will like me?"
All of a sudden, Jiang Xiyun felt a bit irritated. He took a sip of the wine and said with a sigh, "I don't know."
Seeing that Liang Fengyue's expression was getting darker, Jiang Xiyun wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't say it out loud. He stood up and gave an excuse: "I'm going to the washroom." Then he left.
Actually, even Jiang Xiyun didn't know what he was running away from. He washed his face in the bathroom to wake himself up, and when he came out, he coincidentally met Sheng Yeting smoking outside.
"Brother Sheng, why are you here? Are you not going in?"
Jiang Xiyun smiled as he greeted her. In fact, he knew that Sheng Yeting was probably trying to avoid Liang Fengyue on purpose.
Sheng Yeting replied indifferently. He did not express much. He blew out a mouthful of cigarette smoke in a charming way.
Jiang Xiyun secretly exclaimed at Sheng Yeting's charm, but he still couldn't bear it. He tried to console her, "Brother Sheng, can you not be so cold to Fengyue? You know what she's thinking, don't you?"
"Isn't this a bit too cruel?" Jiang Xiyun couldn't help but say.
Everyone could see that Liang Fengyue was good to Sheng Yeting. It was not like Sheng Yeting didn't know.
As Sheng Yeting inhaled the last mouthful of smoke, he suddenly let out a soft laugh. The luster in his eyes suddenly became unclear, "Xiyun, if I don't do this to her, will you have a chance?"
Seeing Jiang Xiyun's sudden change in expression, Sheng Yeting could not help but continue sympathetically, "You still wish for me to be more friendly to her. I can't give her what she wants, so why do I have to give her hope time and time again?"
The warm orange light just happened to hit Sheng Yeting's perfect side face. For a moment, Jiang Xiyun suddenly felt that he had never been like this before. He knew nothing about Sheng Yeting.
He let out a long sigh and understood that Sheng Yeting was right. Jiang Xiyun was suddenly speechless and couldn't help but change the topic: "Then are you going to continue to hurt her like this? And what is your purpose in marrying Xia Xingcheng? For Liang Fengyue to give up? "
Only now did Jiang Xiyun realize that he really didn't understand Sheng Yeting.
Sheng Yeting looked at him coldly and said noncommittally: "This is my business. If you have thoughts on how to deal with me, you might as well think of a way to get Fengyue's favor."
In the end, Sheng Yeting didn't say anything to Jiang Xiyun directly and left the hotel. It seemed that he didn't know how to explain to Xia Xingcheng in detail.
However, Jiang Xiyun didn't think so at all. He could clearly feel the gentleness in Wu Tie's eyes when he mentioned Xia Xingcheng.
Although Sheng Yeting covered up everything, he and Sheng Yeting were brothers that had grown up together. His sixth sense was unmistakable.
After Sheng Yeting left, he didn't go home but directly went upstairs.
Upstairs was where Xia Xingcheng's party was held tonight. He remembered that Xiaobao specifically mentioned waking up when he came out, saying that Mommy's alcohol tolerance was too low.2
Although he didn't want to admit to himself that he was worried something would happen to Xia Xingcheng, Sheng Yeting still went upstairs. He decided to see the woman with his own eyes, so that he could be at ease.
However, Xia Xingcheng's situation at the party wasn't good. Since the start of the party, many people would come over to toast her. She knew that she couldn't refuse such an occasion, so she was already feeling a little drunk.
Xia Xingcheng couldn't help but feel dizzy after sending the last person who toasted her away. She leaned weakly on the sofa, while an unnatural flush appeared on Xia Xingcheng's face.
"Sis Xing, are you alright? Is that alright?" Gu Xingxi looked worriedly at Xia Xingcheng. After a while, her face turned even redder.
She rested for a while, but she didn't feel any better. On the contrary, she felt more and more dizzy, and her body was hot and dry. She thought she must be drunk. She stood up and walked towards the washroom slowly.
Seeing that, Gu Xingxi quickly got involved with Xia Xingcheng, his face full of worry: "Sis Xing, are you really alright?" "I'll accompany you wherever you go."
Xia Xingcheng shook her head. "It's fine. Maybe I'm just a little drunk. I need to go to the washroom. Don't worry about me."
Xia Xingcheng gritted her teeth and forced herself to stay awake for a moment before she slowly made her way to the washroom alone.
Of course she knew that she was feeling a bit dizzy right now, so she might as well let Gu Xingxi mix in better. But this was, after all, a public place with countless pairs of eyes staring at them. A little restlessness in the wind would cause people to criticize them.
Of course, Gu Xingxi also knew this. He couldn't hold on to Xia Xingcheng, and could only stare at her figure. He was anxious, and somehow, he felt more and more uneasy.
What no one noticed was that when Xia Xingcheng left, Zhou David followed her out.
