It was quite a loud noise, which attracted much attention . Some of his acquaintances couldn’t help but ask, “Mr . Sheng, are you alright?”
Sheng Qingyi smiled awkwardly . “My hand slipped . It comes with age, hoho . ”
The others didn’t think much of it and turned their attention back to the daughter of the Song family .
The black dress set off her fair skin and with her delicate features, her smile had a stunning beauty to it . Her style was somewhere between a grown-up woman and a teenage girl, which gave her an even more refreshing and sweet look .
It was said that her name meant “lovely enough to cause the fall of a city . ”
Miss Song was indeed beautiful enough to be called that .
Sheng Yize stood in a corner, sipping his wine .
He didn’t like the idea of his woman being gawked at, but he had to admit that An Xiaxia had stunned them all as soon as she showed up .
Including… Flower Qi, who was drooling beside him .
Qi Yanxi smiled dumbly . “Xiaxia is quite a sight after a little makeover!”
Sheng Yize glared at him . “Are you saying that she’s not without makeup?”
Qi Yanxi broke into a cold sweat . “Of course not… She’s always pretty . ”
“Heh, keep your eyes off my wife, will you? Don’t you know that you’re supposed to keep some distance from your buddy’s wife?” Sheng Yize began to lecture him .
Qi Yanxi was vexed . “Screw you! You’re not married — you’re not even her boyfriend! Stop calling her your wife! I’m not giving up that easily like I did seven years ago! She’s fair game and I’ll marry Xiaxia!”
Sheng Yize knew better than anyone else that Qi Yanxi was very capable of doing that .
He had thrived abroad in the past few years and had made a name for himself on Wall Street for his successful investments . The guy was no less talented than Sheng Yize himself .
Unfortunately… the two of them had grown up together and he knew exactly what Qi Yanxi’s weakness was .
Sheng Yize said casually, “Is that so? But she’s already with child and it’s mine . ”
Qi Yanxi’s glowing face instantly turned white as a sheet .
“Are you f**king kidding me? Xiaxia is pregnant with your baby?”
“It’s been seven years, after all, and you’ve been abroad the entire time . As for me, I’ve taken advantage of the short distance between us . Sorry, buddy!” The glib-tongued Sheng Yize gradually led Qi Yanxi into his trap .
“I don’t believe it! You can’t be that shameless!” Qi Yanxi was exasperated .
Sheng Yize heaved a sigh . “Well, I… couldn’t help it . We’re all healthy grown-ups and it was only natural that something like this would happen . ”
Qi Yanxi wavered . He then said hesitantly, “But… Su Xiaomo told me that Xiaxia is the conservative type…”
Sheng Yize quickly changed the subject . “That day when you saved her at the cliff, she was talking to me on the phone . Do you remember that?”
“Yes…”
“She told me she loved me that day . That dummy thought she was going to die, so she confessed her love for me . I recorded it . ” Sheng Yize took out his phone and played the recording .
Qi Yanxi was heartbroken . “You were the one she thought about at that critical moment…”
Xiaxia didn’t even call him, let alone tell him “I love you . ”
Qi Yanxi huddled in a corner to lick his wounds .
Sheng Yize patted the imaginary dust off his hands and looked like nothing had happened .
K . O .
To anyone else, Qi Yanxi didn’t have a weakness . But to Sheng Yize… the guy was perfectly vulnerable .
Because Qi Yanxi’s weakness was that he wasn’t as smart as Sheng Yize .
Sheng Yize was overwhelmed by a sense of superiority .
