Outrageous! Who said my wife is vain?!

The private dinner following the Kaya Jewelry Exhibition was held at the Prince's Mansion.

Private dinners are relatively high-end and private.

The main purpose is to maintain relationships between the brand and important customers and partners, and to showcase the brand's high-end image.

Therefore, most of the guests attending the jewelry exhibition are not invited to the dinner.

Cheng Yao and Cai Xiaojuan, sisters, went to eat at Haili Lao (a hot pot restaurant). They were already very happy to be able to sit in the VIP section and watch the exhibition.

They won't ask bizarre questions like "Why can't we attend the dinner?"

The overall color scheme of the banquet hall was midnight blue, with gold lines outlining the space, creating an atmosphere that was both mysterious and luxurious.

Each table can accommodate 4-5 people, with ample space between seats to facilitate dining and conversation among guests.

A pristine white tablecloth was laid out smoothly on the dining table, with an exquisite Kaya logo embroidered along the edges.

At the center is an exquisite bouquet composed of various gemstones, surrounded by delicate crystal ornaments that complement the flowers.

The custom-made bone china plates are edged with gold, and the matching silver cutlery and crystal glasses all exude sophistication and luxury.

A small performance area was specially set up in one corner of the banquet venue.

Musicians dressed in gorgeous gowns played soft and soothing classical music, perfectly complementing the atmosphere of the event.

At the start of the banquet, after all the guests were seated, the global president of Kaya gave a speech to welcome the guests.

They briefly introduced the background of the dinner and emphasized the brand concept, but didn't go into too much detail.

After the speeches, the food was served, which was also to allow the guests to quickly enjoy a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere for conversation and social interaction.

The dinner menu consisted mainly of French dishes adapted to Chinese tastes.

Baked snails, foie gras toast, salmon tartare, truffle mushroom soup, grilled steak, baked lobster, cheese platter, etc.

After the meal, enjoy some small desserts and drinks.

Kaya's global president, China regional head, and other senior executives actively communicated and exchanged ideas with the guests during the dinner.

Introducing the brand's latest strategies, design concepts, and future plans to the guests, and sharing the highlights and significance of this jewelry exhibition.

Mingxi had a great time shopping, eating well, and enjoying herself at the jewelry exhibition and banquet.

He also made several friends in the fashion and art worlds, and got along very well with them, which can be considered as expanding his network.

They exchanged contact information, took photos together, chatted and laughed, and talked about various topics that interested them.

However, there are always those who are blind to the fact that they want to disturb others when they are happy.

After chatting all night, Mingxi felt a little tired and bored, so she thought she would take a stroll in the rest area in the courtyard.

I'll take a breath of fresh air and send a message to Brother Chu to see what he's up to.

To his surprise, he had just found a relatively quiet and comfortable sofa to sit on when he heard an extremely annoying male voice, "Mingxi, long time no see. Looks like... you're doing well these days?"

Mingxi looked up and saw Xie Yubo's annoying face. This irritating guy was looking down at him, his eyes still carrying that annoying arrogance.

To be honest, Xie Yubo has three-dimensional features, a high nose bridge, slightly upturned eyes, and eyes that naturally convey deep affection. His body proportions are also perfect, with just the right amount of muscle lines, which makes him look exceptionally masculine.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have risen from a small-time actor to a star in just a few years, although the title "Best Actor" is somewhat exaggerated by his fans.

However, the films he starred in did perform well at the box office and he won a few minor awards. Now he can be considered a male actor with both talent and good looks.

However, none of this affected Mingxi's dislike for him. He didn't think Xie Yubo was handsome at all; at best, he was just an average-looking guy.

So Mingxi simply ignored him, treating him like air, glancing at him before continuing to fiddle with her phone.

Xie Yubo was both angry and anxious when he saw that he dared to ignore him, but he couldn't show it in this situation.

Suppressing her anger, she sat down opposite Mingxi and continued, "Even though we can't be lovers, we can still be friends, right? Is it really necessary for you not to say a single word to me?"

"I know you're now with that second young master of the Lin family. Rich people are hard to please and have a lot of taboos, but there are no paparazzi here."

"You don't need to worry about us being photographed. Your second young master misunderstood. But there are some things you should understand: it's not easy to climb up to rich people, and it's too late to regret some things. I'm not the same person I used to be, you..."

Mingxi really didn't want to talk to him, but the more he talked, the more outrageous it became, so she had to quickly interrupt, "Shut up! Did a donkey kick your head? What nonsense are you spouting! What are you even talking about?!"

Xie Yubo, who was interrupted by Mingxi's stern voice, could no longer maintain his composure. He looked at Mingxi with disappointment and some disdain, "Why are you speaking so vulgarly now? You've become more and more low-class in the past few years."

"I'm vulgar? I'm low-class? I think you just want to try your hand at Iron Fist!" Mingxi glared at him angrily.

"You delusional idiot! We're not even that close, okay? We were just ordinary friends back then, don't talk about it so ambiguously!"

"Also, my boyfriend is incredibly good to me. We're so, so in love. Even if there are paparazzi photos, he won't misunderstand because he knows I definitely wouldn't be interested in you!"

Mingxi's long-winded speech reminded Xie Yubo of the scene when Mingxi rejected him, and the humiliation hit him like a ton of bricks.

Now, forgetting all pretense of elegance, she launched a personal attack on Mingxi: "Heh, Mingxi, you haven't changed a bit. You're still the same person with nothing but a pretty face, vain, utterly devoid of substance, and always dreaming of marrying a rich man and getting something for nothing!"

"You really think you can marry into a wealthy family?! They'll just get tired of you and kick you to the curb. You'll regret it one day!"

Good heavens! He even gave him a moral education lecture?! He taught him a lesson?!

Mingxi's face darkened, and she continued, "My private life is none of your business. Besides, you're a man too, why are you being so petty?!"

"Just because I didn't accept your advances back then, you can't stand to see me doing well? It's been so long, and you still hate me? Brother, think positively. I will never like you, and I will never regret it."

"I am very happy now. My boyfriend is a million times better than you. We will be happy in the future. I'm sorry, I am destined to be happy for the rest of my life. I can't satisfy your twisted desire to see me suffer."

Mingxi's voice grew louder and louder as he spoke. He had simply found a relatively quiet place, and there were people around.

As soon as they shouted, everyone around them started to look at them.

Xie Yubo felt both embarrassed and furious. Pointing his finger at Mingxi's nose, he said, "You're talking nonsense! You're wronging me! How could I possibly be interested in you? Or pursue you? You were the one who seduced me in the first place!"

"Besides, how could I possibly take such a small thing to heart?! I was just thinking we're old friends, catching up with you, who knew your mind was so filthy!"

Mingxi rolled her eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. She slapped away the hand that was pointing at his nose. "Don't you have any manners? Just talk to me, why are you pointing at me?"

"Say whatever you want, it's your mouth, but if you keep harassing me, I'll shout and call everyone over."

"I'd love for this to trend on social media, I don't care, but I wonder if you're scared?"

Seeing Mingxi's "rascal" expression, Xie Yubo was so angry he was practically trembling. "You...you, you're really something! I'm too lazy to talk to someone like you anymore. You'll regret this one day!"

After uttering a harsh remark that sounded less like a threat, Xie Yubo left looking somewhat disheveled.

Mingxi rolled his eyes again, speechless. This lunatic! He even said he seduced him? He never did! What a terrible accusation!

Having acted in too many TV dramas, does he really think he's the male lead of a wish-fulfillment novel?! Is Mingxi just the "cannon fodder" who looked down on the protagonist during his weak period, but inspired him to strive for better?

Wait until he succeeds, then be proven wrong by him? Will you regret not choosing him in the first place?

Xiaojuan said this idiot was handsome? She really should see an ophthalmologist.

However, Mingxi was only angry for a short while. He would never hurt himself for someone he didn't know, after all, getting angry is bad for your health.

Moreover, he soon met new friends who were also very pleasant to talk to.
