Just as Chu Hanyi was about to rush over to catch the woman and teach her a lesson, someone grabbed his hand and stopped him.
"Jiaqi, what are you doing?" Chu Hanyi turned around and glared at the girl.
An Jiaqi smiled and whispered to Chu Hanyi,""Brother Yi, you are the host today. There are so many guests here, what do you want to do?”
"I'm just going to say hello to my classmates.”Chu Hanyi shook off the hand that was grabbing his arm and strode towards Song Yuxi and Mu Ning who were chatting with others.
Song Yuxi, long time no see." Chu Hanyi patted Song Yuxi's shoulder and greeted her as if they were close friends.
"Long time no see." Song Yuxi smiled politely as well, her eyes glinting with interest.
Mu Ning stood in the middle and did not make a sound. On the surface, it looked like the two of them were greeting each other normally, but she could feel a hint of arrogance between them.
"Mu Ning, you're here too." After greeting Song Yuxi, Chu Hanyi greeted Mu Ning warmly, but he did not hide the anger in his eyes.
"Yes." Mu Ning nodded slightly.
Her estrangement made Chu Han's anger burst out again. "When did you and Xi meet? Why didn't I know?”
"He was the one who saved me last time." Mu Ning did not hide anything or say anything else.
She tightened her grip on Mu Ning and pulled her into her embrace. Song Yuxi lowered her head and whispered into Mu Ning's ear,""Heh, I saved her because it was you.”
Song Yuxi looked at Chu Hanyi, whose face had turned black. She smiled evilly and her eyes were filled with provocation.
"I want to invite your partner to dance with me. How about it?”Chu Hanyi raised his voice as he suppressed the urge to take Mu Ning away. He was very unhappy to see them whispering so intimately! Extremely unhappy!
"I'm so sorry, but Mu Ning's first dance is mine.”After saying that, she hugged Mu Ning tightly.
Chu Hanyi was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he could only endure it. He couldn't lose his manners. This party was organized by his family, and if he did something, it would affect the image of his company.
Mu Ning watched the exchange between the two of them quietly. She knew that Song Yuxi was using her to provoke Chu Hanyi, but she did not want to interfere because it had nothing to do with her.
"Let's go, beautiful lady. It's my honor to dance with you for the first dance tonight.”Song Yuxi said to Mu Ning with a smile, as if she was doing it on purpose.
She had to admit that he looked good when he smiled. Mu Ning did not reject the offer and followed Song Yuxi to the dance floor.
However, she didn't seem to know how to dance…
Chu Hanyi clenched his fists as he watched Mu Ning and Song Yuxi enter the dance floor. Damn Shen Muning! Why didn't she reject this hateful woman? She should have rejected him!
On the dance floor, Song Yuxi held Mu Ning's slender waist with one hand and Mu Ning's small hand with the other. She gently led her along with his dance steps. The softness and warmth of the person in his arms made him unconsciously hug her even tighter.
Outside the dance floor, An Jiaqi stared coldly at Mu Ning with disgust in her eyes.
She really couldn't see what was good about her. How could it compare to her looks? She thought that her looks were better than hers. Family background? She heard that the girl was an illegitimate daughter, while she was the only daughter of the dignified An family.
She had been educated in ladylike manners since she was young. Whether it was her speech or behavior, it was definitely not something an illegitimate daughter like her could compare to. But why did Brother Yi like someone like her? Even Song Yuxi liked her?
An Jiaqi had always been the center of attention, but this time, everyone's attention had been stolen by that wild girl. No one noticed her, who was dressed up. She had been pampered since she was young and was treated like a princess. How could she stand it? The way she looked at Mu Ning gradually became filled with hatred and jealousy.
All of these belonged to her, and she would definitely snatch them back!
At the thought of this, a hint of viciousness gradually appeared in An Jiaqi's eyes. However, it was fleeting, so no one noticed it. He turned his head and waved his hand to summon an attendant. He lowered his head and whispered a few words in his ear before disappearing from the venue.
After the dance, Mu Ning could not wait to escape from the dance floor. She tried her best to make her voice sound normal. "I'm going to the washroom." After that, he left quickly, not caring if Song Yuxi had anything else to say.
Mu Ning walked into the bathroom and saw that her face was slightly flushed in the mirror.
When they were dancing, Chu Hanyi's eyes followed her closely. Although she didn't see it, she could feel the anger in his eyes. Her back seemed to be burned by his burning gaze.
Song Yuxi's fake intimacy made her feel uncomfortable. All she wanted was for the party to end quickly so that she could go home earlier. For some reason, she felt depressed whenever she was with Song Yuxi!
Thump, thump, thump…The sound of high heels coming closer and closer. A pure and beautiful girl in a pink princess dress appeared in the mirror. She stood not far behind Mu Ning and looked at Mu Ning with an elegant smile on her face. She did not say a word.
Mu Ning did not turn around. Instead, she looked at her in the mirror.
"Hello, my name is An Jiaqi." The girl smiled at Mu Ning after a few seconds.
"Hello," Out of courtesy, Mu Ning turned around and returned a faint smile.
"I'm Brother Yi's girlfriend. I heard that you're his good friend, so you're my good friend too!”An Jiaqi smiled innocently and reached out her hand to Mu Ning.
A good friend? She did not seem to know Chu Hanyi well. Also, the girl in front of him seemed a bit suspicious. Since she was Chu Hanyi's girlfriend, why was she so polite to her? Was she not jealous?
She wasn't someone who liked to make friends, and her first impression of this girl wasn't very good, even though she looked so harmless. She never judged a person based on their appearance and words, because these things could be faked and could deceive herself.
Her eyes could sometimes lie to her, so she always listened to her heart. "Yes." Mu Ning smiled faintly and nodded at An Jiaqi. She did not reach out her hand. "I still have something to do, so I'll go out first.”Mu Ning did not want to have anything to do with An Jiaqi, so she walked past her and left the bathroom.
"How uncultured!" An Jiaqi's expression changed, and she clenched her hand into a fist.
What was so good about this woman? Would Brother Yi like her? He actually dared to be so rude to her. He had no manners at all!
When she heard that she was an illegitimate daughter, she didn't believe it at first because she thought that Brother Yi definitely wouldn't have such bad taste. But now it seemed that this matter was true. An illegitimate daughter was an illegitimate daughter! Even if he was recognized, he was still a b * tch!
She would never let Brother Yi be bewitched by this illegitimate daughter. Before she returned to the country, her mother had told her that Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu liked her very much. She and Brother Yi would get married sooner or later, so before that, all the factors that might destroy her happiness had to be resolved!
Shen Muning was the biggest threat now!
An Jiaqi's originally sweet and adorable face gradually revealed a vicious smile.
She had stolen all the limelight tonight, so she would help her out of kindness! She wanted her to become the laughingstock of the entire place, to lose all her face in front of Brother Yi, and to make Song Yuxi abandon her!
She was just an illegitimate daughter. Why should she have two such outstanding boys around her? No, she would never allow it!
When Mu Ning returned to the venue, Song Yuxi was discussing something with a middle-aged man. Chu Hanyi was surrounded by a group of girls, and it seemed like he could not get away for the time being.
This was just right. She could have some peace and quiet by herself. Ever since they entered the venue, they had not seen Yiyi and Xu Rui. Mu Ning stuck her head out and looked around, trying to find Yiyi and Xu Rui.
After a few seconds of repeated inspection, Mu Ning finally noticed the two of them. They were sitting at the dining table not far away from her. Just as she was about to go over, an arm suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked Mu Ning's path.
"Beautiful lady, I wonder if I can invite you to dance?”Wang Yelin thought that he was extremely cool as he placed a delicate rose in front of Mu Ning. He did not forget to give Mu Ning a passionate look.
Mu Ning was not shocked. Instead, she felt goosebumps all over her body when she saw Wang Yelin's pretentious behavior. "Sorry, my dance partner is over there. I'll go over first.”After saying that, he wanted to walk around the person who stopped him and walk towards Yiyi.
"Hey, Miss, wait a minute. I want to be friends with you, okay?”Seeing that Mu Ning was not charmed by him at all, Wang Yelin quickly grabbed Mu Ning's hand and said,"
The texture of her hands was really good. They were soft and smooth, just like a baby's skin. This was the only feeling Wang Yelin had when he pulled Mu Ning back. He could not help but feel a little moved. He secretly made up his mind that he must get this girl!
"Let go!" Mu Ning was shocked by the unfamiliar touch, and a strong sense of rejection welled up in her.
Wang Yelin did not let go of Mu Ning obediently. Instead, he tightened his grip on her. Mu Ning's face was flushed red from anger, but in his eyes, it was shyness. "Don't misunderstand, I just want to be friends with you."”
"Let go!" Goosebumps rose on her hand. For some reason, Mu Ning subconsciously hated his touch. When she saw that he refused to let go, she tried to shake him off.
"Ah, sorry, I forgot." Wang Yelin quickly apologized when Mu Ning pulled his hand away. He couldn't push her too hard, or else it wouldn't be good if he scared this little beauty away!
