BXBX NOVEL Chapter 908: Model Couple
Jing Yunzhao had only achieved half of her goal by coming here, so she walked toward Shen Xi after Xu Yuanze left.
“Mrs. Xu, your skin is really well maintained. The Xu family has a thousand-year-old tradition of making medicine. Do you have any secret recipes?”
“Look, we’re clearly the same age. You look like a little girl in her twenties. I’m embarrassed to stand with you.”A few women stood together, and their laughter could be heard.
Shen Xi was surrounded by people, and the other women looked at her with envy and praised her endlessly.
“No, I’m already so old. How can I compare to a little girl?”Chen Xi took a sip of red wine and smiled.
This smile made the women’s eyes look even more amazed.
Time was like a curse to women like them. Their husbands were not ordinary people. As long as they called out, countless crazy bees and butterflies would pounce on them, squeezing them into a place where they had no status to speak of, especially women who were the same age as Chen Xi. Their husbands were likely to have someone else outside, and their husbands would not even sweet talk or be gentle to them anymore.
However, Chen Xi seemed to have been forgotten by time. She had a temperament and was generous. Not only was Xu Yuanze rich and powerful, but he was also extremely self-disciplined and was famous for being a good man.
Chen Xi’s good life was something that most people would envy.
“Mrs. Xu, you and Mayor Xu are a model couple, and your son is a student at a famous university. Speaking of which, Shen Tong, who was popular all those years ago, was your sister, right? She’s not as lucky as you. Oh right, one of my cousins is a loyal fan of Shen Tong. Why don’t you introduce them to each other someday?”Someone praised.
However, these words made Chen Xi’s face stiffen, but it disappeared in a flash.
“Is that so? What a coincidence, let’s do it another day then…However, my sister has a bit of pride and might not be able to put down her status. Sigh, can I try my best to persuade her?”Shen Xi said with a smile.
When he said this, the other party felt a little uncomfortable.
Back then, Shen Tong was highly praised by others, but in the end, didn’t she still have a child out of marriage and run abroad to hide from the limelight? She was just a small actress. Did she have the right to be arrogant?
If that Chen Tong was half as sensible and polite as Chen Xi, she probably wouldn’t have to show her face in public and run her own beauty salon, right?
“Mrs. Xu, it doesn’t seem good to speak ill of others behind their backs, right?”At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Everyone was stunned. They turned around and saw a young girl with a faint smile on her face staring at Chen Xi. Her eyes were unfathomable and made people feel a chill down their spines.
When Chen Xi saw this, her hand trembled and the red wine spilled out. She quickly wiped it off.
“You are…” He asked through gritted teeth.
‘Why is Jing Yunzhao here?’
“Mrs. Xu, don’t you know me? I’m Jing Yunzhao. Didn’t you ask Shen Tong to give me a bottle of wine to taste?””Jing Yunzhao said matter-of-factly. She glanced at the red wine that Shen Xi spilled and chuckled,””Mrs. Xu, are you that surprised to see me?”
“So it’s Miss Jing…I’m not surprised, I just didn’t expect…” Chen Xi stood up and said kindly like an elder,””I heard from Shen Tong that you’re a student from A University. Why are you here today? But if I had known that you were interested in this business party, I would have gotten someone to bring you an invitation card. Then, you wouldn’t have to trouble others.”
