Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 19 is over, it's provoked.

Xiao Shen ignored her and turned his gaze to Nan Wu, who was following behind him, raising an eyebrow and questioning her.

"What's going on?"

Nan Wu felt guilty and didn't dare to look him in the eye. "It's...it's just what she said, Fourth Master. This designer is very talented at our Nan Corporation. I've already arranged a room upstairs. How about...how about letting her go up and have a good talk with you? You can give her feedback if she has any opinions!"

A soft chuckle came from beside her ear. Xiao Shen pressed his tongue against his cheek, his eyes sharp as knives, leaving Nan Wu nowhere to hide.

"I see. Should I thank Mr. Nan for his thoughtful service?"

Nan Wu turned her face away, forcing herself to remain calm, "It's only right that I serve Fourth Master!"

Xiao Shen chuckled, but his eyes remained icy cold. He nodded with a smile, "Alright, alright, alright!"

"In that case, I will respectfully obey your command!"

After saying that, he walked away, and Nanwu swayed as the cold wind he stirred up made her stagger.

Watching Ou Ruoya follow along eagerly, she felt a strange unease, after all, he was a man she had slept with.

After exhaling a breath of stale air, Nanwu regained her spirits and gracefully moved through the crowd.

"Miss Qian has arrived!"

"So beautiful! No wonder she's Haicheng's number one socialite!"

"I heard he has a bad temper and it's common for him to injure or cripple people!"

"So what? Men will still flock outside the city to marry her!"

Wearing a court-style dress, Qian Ke'er gracefully descended the spiral staircase like a queen, her hands resting on her feet.

All eyes turned to that direction, including Nan Wu's.

Her pupils trembled, and without any hesitation, she turned and left in the next second.

I knew that wherever Qian Xingjie appeared, Qian Ke'er would inevitably be there too.

Despite her quick reaction, her unusual behavior was still noticed.

Someone stopped her.

"Su Ying, long time no see!"

Those two words, like a sharp sword, instantly pierced through the mask on my face.

Having not heard that name for a long time, Nan Wu's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly suppressed it, curving her lips into an elegant smile, "Sir, are you calling me?"

Qian Xingjie took a step closer, his smile revealing his understanding of everything. "Otherwise, is there anyone else here? I never expected this, Su Ying. We've been looking for you for so long, and it turns out you were hiding in Ningcheng."

Nan Wu looked confused. "Sir, what are you saying? I don't understand. Have you mistaken me for someone else? My name is Nan Wu, not Su Ying!"

Qian Xingjie's suspicious gaze swept over Nan Wu's face, trying to find a loophole in her expression. He would immediately be able to confirm anything if she showed the slightest abnormality.

But Nanwu's disguise was too good; she appeared innocent and confused, just like an outsider.

"Really? Oh, maybe it's because you look too much like my friend. Sorry!" After some thought, Qian Xingjie changed his attitude.

Nan Wu touched her face and replied politely, "It's okay, it's just that my face is too common!"

"Is Miss Nan a local of Ningcheng?" Qian Xingjie asked, trying to get information out of her.

"Yes, we're a native of this area, and we welcome you to visit us!"

How do you know we don't come here often?

Nan Wu calmly replied, "Who doesn't know Miss Qian's name? Everyone was just vying to be your guide!"

Qian Xingjie seemed unable to find a breakthrough, so he pulled out a business card and handed it over. "This is my business card. If Miss Nan needs any help, you can come to me. It's only fair!" "Definitely!" Nan Wu lifted her skirt and left with a smile. She held her breath the whole way, not daring to lose her rhythm, for fear that she would be caught by Qian Xingjie if she was not careful.

She finally emerged from that torturous gaze, and in a secluded spot, leaned against a wall and let out a long sigh of relief.

She didn't even glance at the business card in her hand before throwing it into the trash can.

When Qian Xingjie turned around, he almost bumped into someone face to face.

"Who is that woman? They seem to be having a very lively conversation."

Qian Xingjie straightened his black bow tie, completely unconcerned. "What right do you have to question me?"

"You!" Mu Sha grabbed his shoulders, a hint of jealousy in her voice. "Don't forget Miss Ke'er's warning: the more beautiful a woman is on the outside, the more likely she is to be filthy behind the scenes. How could you bring yourself to do that?"

Qian Xingjie's mocking gaze swept over her. "I'd rather go after someone dirty than be interested in a tomboy like you!"

“You, Qian Xingjie…” Mu Sha was hit where it hurt, and looked down at herself unwillingly.

A black tank top, black leather pants, black leather boots, paired with a neat short haircut—how does that make her look like a tomboy? Doesn't she have any taste?

For the rest of the time, Nan Wu spent almost all her time looking at her phone, not knowing how Xiao Shen was doing. After what had just happened, she didn't dare to run back to the lobby.

There was a hurried knock on the door of the lounge. When the door was opened, a hotel staff member hurriedly whispered something in Nan Wu's ear, and Nan Wu immediately rushed upstairs with him.

As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I saw a woman running out of a room crying.

He was disheveled, his clothes were in disarray, and most surprisingly, his clothes were completely wet and smelled strongly of alcohol.

"What happened?" Nan Wu asked, grabbing Ou Ruoya's shoulder.

"He...he's a madman, a complete madman!"

Nan Wu arranged for a waiter to take Ou Ruoya away, then composed herself and walked towards Xiao Shen's room.

See? It turned out to be a flop!
Oh no! Xiao Shen is sure to blame her.

"Fourth Master!" Nan Wu called out softly, her voice high-pitched and her smile innocent.

She was stunned by the mess inside the room as soon as she stepped inside.

The tables and chairs were scattered haphazardly, and broken bottles and glasses lay on the floor, damp with what looked like wine mixed with cigarette butts. If I had to imagine it... well, I really couldn't.

But she knew that Xiao Shen was very good at torturing people, and Ou Ruoya was already grateful that she had just survived.

Then look at this man; his face is dark, his lips are tightly pursed, and he exudes a chilling aura that says "Keep away, strangers."

Omg!

This is nothing more than the end of the world, isn't it?

"Fourth Master, Miss Ou, she..." Nan Wu could barely keep her smile going.

pat!pat!
Xiao Shen held a cigarette but didn't smoke it, playing with the lighter in his other hand. He was slumped in the leather sofa. He was sitting, and Nan Wu was standing, but she was already ravaged by that invisible sense of oppression.

After staring at Nan Wu for a while, this man finally spoke up, "She wants to drink, so I'll treat her to a good drink!"

Forehead!
So, you're forcing it down someone's throat? That's some ruthless person!

Nan Wu continued to play the innocent rabbit, "Fourth Master, this Miss Ou has very low emotional intelligence and is ignorant. If she has offended you in any way, please forgive her and forget about it. I will definitely apologize to you properly another day!"

"Apologize? Well said, well said..." Although he said this with a smile, every word seemed to be spat out from between his teeth, making Nan Wu feel terrified.

Sure enough, the next second he flicked his cigarette butt, beckoned to Nan Wu with his finger, and said, "Come here!"
