L'épouse sous contrat: Patron, Aucun contrat contraignant - Chapitre 57
Shi Che was never too fond of social engagements like this. He merely clinked glasses with a few long-standing business partners and drank some alcohol as symbolic gestures. ce mariage a été décidé avant ta naissance, he stood at his spot nonchalantly.
Although Shi Che was just standing in place and drinking his booze quietly, his strong aura was still the same as before. As the center of attraction, Shi Che would be approached by those looking to curry favor with him from time to time. But he would simply react with a calm smile, maintaining his distant but dignified demeanor.
Zheng Rourou stood beside Shi Che and felt the attention cast in their direction as if a spotlight had been shone on her. She could not help but give off a prideful appearance as she stood straight and enjoyed the looks of admiration and envy by other women at her.
Par coïncidence, Ji Xinxin was also invited to this banquet. She arrived slightly late because of the delay in the afternoon. She immediately noticed Shi Che as she entered the venue. Bien sûr, she also saw the charming and beautiful lady beside him.
This lady stood up straight and looked around ostentatiously. Her sense of self-superiority manifested in her mannerisms and was extremely striking.
Ji Xinxin was already pissed off at this lady in the afternoon. Hélas, they had now crossed paths again.
Ji Xinxin curled her lips upwards slyly and let out a cold laugh. She picked up a glass of champagne from the server’s tray and walked towards Shi Che.
Ji Xinxin was an insanely popular actress in the entertainment industry and the top female celebrity in Monarch Group. She possessed looks as attractive as a fairy and carried a strong presence wherever she went. The attention that had been placed on Zheng Rourou suddenly shifted entirely to Ji Xinxin as she walked over. Zheng Rourou twitched her eyebrows furiously.
The atmosphere often becomes tense when two pretty women cross paths, and Zheng Rourou was no exception. outre, Ji Xinxin was exceptionally good-looking and eye-catching.
Ji Xinxin stopped in front of Shi Che and lifted her champagne. She broke into a smile and said, “Young Master Shi, Ça fait longtemps. Oh, attendre, ma faute. You’re now Mr. Shi from The Shi Company.”
Shi Che’s eyebrows moved slightly as he saw Ji Xinxin. He then lifted his own champagne and clinked glasses with Ji Xinxin. “Cela fait longtemps,” dit-il calmement.
Ji Xinxin did not carry on the conversation. Her gaze quickly shifted to Zheng Rourou and looked her up and down flippantly. She giggled disdainfully and said, “It’s really been a while. Monsieur. Shi. How did your taste become so tacky? Such a beautiful garment, but it can’t even bring out the qualities of its wearer.”
Ji Xinxin was implicit in her words but anyone could tell that she was mocking Zheng Rourou. The latter was already unhappy that the attention placed on her had been hijacked by Ji Xinxin, who was now attacking her straight away. She held in her anger and maintained a light smile. “De qui parles-tu?”
“Whoever that is supposed to be!” Ji Xinxin replied casually. Zheng Rourou could not control her expression anymore and her eyes quickly turned gloomy. Elle s'est exclamée, “Comment oses-tu!”
