When he saw Tang Xu standing right in front of him, a strange feeling suddenly filled his heart. Was it displeasure? Or was it guilt?

Seeing Tang Xu's somewhat pale face, the hand holding the wine cup tightened slightly. A trace of desolation flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He had long known that Zhu Zhu Zhu and Tang Xu were colleagues and good friends, but he had not expected that she would introduce the two of them at this time.

Zhu Zhu Zhu didn't notice his change at all as he pulled him along to warmly greet Tang Xu.

Tang Xu looked at the people in front of him, not knowing what to say.

The joints of her hands that were holding the wine cup were taut to the point of turning white. She lowered her eyes for a moment before raising her head with a hint of a smile on her face.

"Zhu Zhu, I wish you a happy birthday."

She raised her glass as if Meng Xingzhan didn't exist.

"Alright then. Happy Birthday. Congratulations on getting a year older, right?" Zhu Zhu Zhu clinked her glass, looking at Tang Xu as she chuckled, "Come, today I'll introduce you to some important figures."

"Waa, so handsome! It's simply a ghost that can shock the world!"

At this moment, Tian Shitong appeared out of nowhere. He held a cup of Bloody Mary in his hand and looked at Meng Xing Zhang with a infatuated expression.

Zhu Zhu Zhu was even more proud now. She tightened her wrist and proudly said, "This is my cousin. He's the CEO of 'Meng Qi' Group. Of course he's handsome."

"What?" Tian Shitong was so surprised that his teeth almost fell out of his mouth. With great difficulty, he restrained his infatuated look and pulled on Zhu Zhu Zhu's hand in disbelief as he asked, "You're actually his cousin? I often see him in magazines and newspapers, and he is simply out of my reach. I never thought that I would see him here.

Tian Shitong said as he pushed Tang Xu. "That's right, Tang Xu. He's even more handsome than Shen. He's even more handsome than Shen."

Tian Shitong really couldn't stop talking about the pot.

After saying this, Tang Xu and Meng Xing Zhang's faces darkened.

However, today was Zhu Zhu Zhu's birthday. Tang Xu's original intention was not to make Zhu Zhu unhappy, so he could only laugh along, "Yeah, he's indeed very handsome."

She clearly had different thoughts. Meng Xing Zhang looked at her thoughtfully for a moment, then suddenly approached her and asked, "Really? Miss Tang, do you really think I'm very handsome? "

That gaze, that gaze, was simply too oppressive. Even Tang Xu was unable to face it. He opened his mouth for a few seconds, then nodded his head.

Damn it, why was I so confused every time I saw him?

She should have hated him to the core. She hated him to the bone for doing such an unbearable thing …

"Hehe, my cousin, he must be very handsome."

Zhu Zhu Zhu noticed that something was wrong between them. Glancing at Tang Xu, her smile faded as she asked, "Cousin, you and Tang Xu, did you two already know each other?"

"Of course."

"Ah, I don't know him. I don't know him."

The two of them spoke at the same time, but their answers were different.

This made Zhu Zhu Zhu even more suspicious, suddenly laughing out loud as he pushed Tang Xu, "Do you know him or not?"

Tang Xu didn't know what to do. She understood Meng Xing Zhang's personality. If he wanted to say that he knew her, then she wouldn't be able to understand. Besides, Zhu Zhu Zhu would definitely suspect that it was better to admit it.

She hesitated for a moment before explaining, "Because I've met Master Meng before, and I couldn't recognize him at first glance. But upon closer inspection, I realized that I've met him before."

"Yes, we have."

Meng Xing Zhang also agreed, but his tone wasn't friendly at all.

"I'm dizzy. If I knew that all of you had met before, I wouldn't have put so much thought into it." Zhu Zhu said as he took two glasses of red wine, one for Meng Xing Zhang and one for Tang Xu.

"Come on, since we're all friends, let's have a drink."

What friends, they were clearly enemies! An irreconcilable enemy.

Meng Xing Zhang raised his wine cup. Tang Xu paused for a moment before raising his cup as well. The four of them started drinking as well.

Before Tang Xu had even finished drinking the wine, he already felt extremely disgusted. He felt as if his stomach had turned upside down as he retched twice before he lost his balance. Another waiter came from behind and accidentally bumped into him.

She lunged forward.

Everything was a coincidence, but also an accident.

"Be careful!"

Zhu Zhu Zhu let out a soft cry, but before she could reach out a hand, a pair of hands appeared in front of her.

It was Meng Xing Zhang.

Just in time, he had grabbed Tang Xu's arm and held her by the waist, preventing her from falling to the ground in embarrassment. However, the half-empty glass of red wine in his hands had all been splashed onto Tang Xu's chest.

In a split-second, the pink dress was dyed from red to her waist, giving off an ice-cold feeling.

At that time, Tang Xu's face had turned completely red. Under such circumstances, he had dirtied his clothes, but damn it, he was still in Meng Xing Zhang's embrace.

With a flushed face, she glanced at Meng Xing Zhang and said in a low voice, "Let go of me!"

"If I let you go, you'll be the focus of the night." Meng Xing Zhang lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Don't forget, Zhu Zhu Zhu is not as good-looking as you. However, she's the main character of today's banquet. Could it be that you want to steal her limelight?"

He seemed to be able to identify with Tang Xu's family and knew that she valued friendship.

Tang Xu struggled for a moment before he glared at Meng Xing Zhang. He was simply a nightmare.

"Tang Xu, are you alright?" I almost fell down. "

"Yeah, cousin. Are you alright?"

From the voices of Tian Chutong and Zhu Zhu Zhu, one was concerned about Meng Xingzhang and the other was concerned about Tang Xu.

Tang Xu moved a few times as he glared at Meng Xing Zhang, before he finally let go of his body.

"Oh my god, how did this happen?" Looking at the smudges of red powder on Tang Xu's body, Tian Shitong cried out in alarm.

"Hey, are you afraid that she won't be seen?"

Zhu Zhu Zhu tugged at Tian Chutong as she called for the waiter. "Go and help Miss Tang to change her clothes."

"Yes, miss."

Clutching his upper body, Tang Xu was about to turn around and leave when Meng Xing Zhang suddenly said, "Wait."

She paused for a moment and felt her shoulders sink. A unique fragrance was being sucked into her nose. She could not forget that smell. She hated that smell. It had once violated her.

She even wanted to take it off and throw it in front of him, but Zhu Zhu Zhu …

She could not express her excitement, or else she would be suspected. She hesitated for a moment, then without looking back, she said, "Thank you, Teacher Meng."

Afterwards, Tang Xu left the banquet center without looking back.

At this moment, she was like a speck of dust. Even if she were to leave, she would not attract anyone's attention.

After leaving, she threw her suit on the ground and looked at it with disdain.

At this moment, she wanted nothing more than to take a bath and remove the smell from her body. She didn't want to touch the smell on his body at all, so she felt disgusted and wanted to vomit.

Tian Shitong followed him into the room. Looking at the alcohol stains on Tang Xu's body, she clicked her tongue twice before picking a black gown from Zhu Zhu Zhu's row of clothes.

"Here, quickly put it on. I'll cut the cake in a while."
