Before Wen Xiaoya opened her mouth, Fu Lengye clinked the champagne glass in his hand with Xu Zhou’s to show his hospitality.
“Mr. Xu, I have a great impression of you. You founded the Cang Zhou Company at such a young age and created a bright future for yourself.”
“No, no, no. Compared to yours, I am nothing! I hope to have a chance to collaborate with you in the future. Cang Zhou’s new property management chain system is the most efficient in the world. Your hotel and real estate might find it useful…”
Xu Zhou was indeed a piece of sh*t. He treated himself as God’s favored son just by being polite, and he actually dared to boast about the accomplishments that Cang Lan worked hard for?!
Wen Xiaoya sneered and continued on from Fu Lengye’s conversation, “Mr. Xu, I heard that the former CEO of Cang Zhou Company was a woman. I also saw the report of you two being a couple that always joined hands to attend press conferences. Did she come with you today?”
Xu Zhou’s high-spirited face changed in an instant. He panicked so much that his lips started to tremble. He did not allow Cang Lan to have a funeral. He had spent a lot of money to suppress all news about the former female president. In the past two months, no one had mentioned this matter in front of him.
However, now that he was here today, how was he being asked this question about the former female president of Cang Zhou Company?
Hermione, who was at his side, saw that Xu Zhou could not handle it anymore and answered Wen Xiaoya’s question for him.
“Mrs. Fu, you’re paying attention to such a small matter. You really can’t be underestimated. Cang Lan is my best friend. Unfortunately, she died in a car accident two months ago, and we’re all very sad. Without her, Cang Zhou Company had lost one of their strongest pillars. Sigh…”
Hermione’s words sounded like she felt sorry for the former CEO, but in fact, she was pretending to be miserable and wanted to get a share from the Fu Corporation.
Cang Lan was killed and no one cared about her, but now she was being used to show sympathy. These pair of b*stards were too vicious!
Wen Xiaoya ignored Xu Zhou and Hermione’s fake sympathy. She changed the topic and hit the nail on the head.
“Ms. Hermione, so you took over your best friend’s duties of being his partner? The former CEO of Cang Zhou passed away just two months ago, and the two of you are already so intimate. What kind of vulgar love triangle is this?”
This scene instantly went into an uproar. Everyone here that was famous and wealthy eavesdropped in on the conversation. Wen Xiaoya’s words mercilessly pushed Xu Zhou and Hermione into the position of a cheating couple.
Some people even began to whisper to each other, “Could Cang Lan’s death have been orchestrated by these two?”
Fu Lengye looked at his little cutie with interest. He did not know what kind of entanglement Wen Xiaoya had with them in the past, but today, she had actually given such a fatal blow.
He only wrapped his arm around her slender waist when she spoke, this action was to show everyone that no one could afford to offend Mrs. Fu.
Xu Zhou was embarrassed and baffled by her words. In a moment of desperation, he could only let go of Hermione’s hand and deliberately kept a little distance.
“I had a relationship with Cang Lan for ten years. She passed away unexpectedly, and I was very sad. It was Hermione who had accompanied me through the most difficult time.
“But she and I are just friends. She’s also my executive secretary now. Mrs. Fu, please don’t misunderstand. I’m still deeply in love with Cang Lan!” Xu Zhou spoke loudly for everyone else to hear.
Wen Xiaoya felt that these words were extremely hypocritical! Was Xu Zhou not the one who tied Cang Lan to the speeding car and pushed her towards the cliff?! Before she died, she could not forget a single word from Xu Zhou!
After being pushed away by Xu Zhou, Hermione was obviously very angry. She glared fiercely at Xu Zhou and Wen Xiaoya, then turned around and left this scuffle.
The reason why Xu Zhou could enter the Fu family’s wedding had nothing to do with his status as the president of Cang Zhou. It was all because of Hermione’s family. When he saw that Hermione had left, he had to chase after her to explain and coax her to come back.
“Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu, I have some matters to attend to. I’ll take my leave first.”
A small facade came to an end and the people have settled into their seats. The banquet hall of the castle had just finished serving the exquisite foie gras as the appetizer.
At this moment, Wen Mimi walked in confidently with her Altamira painting ‘The Field’ that Wen Xiaoya had given her.
When Wen Xiaoya saw her, she saw that Wen Mimi took her phone out from her diamond handbag and sent a few messages.
The real show had just begun!
