Chapter 912: Chapter 912: Chu Xi Also Arrives
Cui Jiangjing said calmly, âNothing, just annoyed by how nosy you are.â
Shen Siyuan wasnât stupid and could obviously tell that Cui Jiangjingâs anger was directed at her. She reluctantly tugged on Fu Yiâs arm, âSecond brother, let it go.â
âHe might just be in a bad mood, donât mind him. Thatâs just how he is, immature.â
The corners of Cui Jiangjingâs mouth twitched. He really wanted to retort, âYouâre the mature one, so mature that youâd shamelessly pester an elderâ?
But with so many people around, he didnât want to make Shen Siyuan completely lose face, so he held back.
Fu Yi also noticed that recently he had a lot of complaints about Shen Siyuan and wisely didnât try to bring them together again, subtly changing the topic instead.
Just as their conversation was heating up, suddenly, a voice interrupted, âMr. Fu, Mr. Cui, what a coincidence.â
Shen Siyuan was enjoying the attention from all around and never expected someone to interject so inappropriately. She looked up and saw Chu Xi, wearing a crimson velvet gown, her figure elegant and her demeanor charming and cheerful, exuding an indescribable allure.
The same Cui Jiangjing who had just been unpleasant towards her greeted the newcomer quite warmly, âMiss Chu, what a coincidence. Youâre here too.â
âFor an occasion like this, I should certainly stop by,â Chu Xi answered, her eyes lighting up in a way that was indescribably feminine.
Shen Siyuanâs spotlight had already been stolen by Su Xiansui today, and now seeing Chu Xi, not only stealing the limelight but also coming over to take the attention of the men, the look on her face suddenly turned sour, she frowned and said, âWho is she?â
The woman in question stood right in front of her; showing a bit of respect and not turning to ask someone else who Chu Xi was would have been more appropriate. A self-introduction could easily have led to them getting acquainted.
But she didnât do that, choosing instead to use this approach as if it elevated her own status.
The people beside her always treated her words as law, immediately copied her manner, openly looking at Chu Xi while saying, âSeems like a celebrity, I remember seeing her online before.â
Shen Siyuan scoffed, âAnother celebrity, celebrities are a dime a dozen these days, everywhere you look.â
Her sarcastic tone made it unclear whether she was targeting Chu Xi or taking the opportunity to insult Rong Yan as well.
Perhaps the word âcelebrityâ touched a nerve; Shen Siyuan had forgotten about Cui Jiangjingâs cold demeanor just moments before and said, âSecond brother, is she Cui Xiaosiâs date? Not very impressive.â
Chu Xiâs figure and appearance certainly qualified her as a great beauty, so the words ânot very impressiveâ were a bit much.
Cui Jiangjingâs temples throbbed fiercely. Before he could come up with a biting comeback, Chu Xi laughed first, âIs this Shen Yuâs sister?â
Shen Siyuanâs eyes flashed with anger, and she said unhappily, âIs my brotherâs name something you can just casually mention?â
âTsk, what else?â Chu Xi chuckled, her gaze enchanting, âIâm not calling him directly. Should Miss Shen expect me to prepare three sticks of incense and bathe before I dare to say your brotherâs name with love?â
âYou!â Shen Siyuanâs expression changed, and she almost lost her temper, but a second before doing so, she forced herself to calm down. She didnât lose the composure befitting a lady of her status, directing all her anger towards the innocent Cui Jiangjing instead, âCui Xiaosi, wonât you take care of your date? Listen to how she talks?â
