Hong Kong Nights of Passion

Chapter 32 Jiang Shu's feelings for her are extraordinary.

Shi Zhenxiang was already short-tempered, and now that she was soaking wet, no one offered her a piece of clothing, so she could only stare longingly at Chi Yige.

But Chi Yige didn't even look at her, his head was down as he played with his lighter, completely ignoring her.

The scene infuriated her, and just then Jiang Shu spoke up to question her, she immediately exploded: "You, surnamed Jiang! Don't try to intimidate me just because you're one of the four major families in Hong Kong! You think I'm afraid of you? I wouldn't even deign to bother with you!"

She glanced sideways at Zhou Shiyi beside her, who was wiping her face with a wet wipe, and suddenly snorted coldly, her eyes full of mockery: "Serves you right."

This time, she finally realized that Zhou Shiyi was behind it all, and that she was just a pawn being used as a tool.

At this moment, Fu Yanjie saw that she was soaking wet, and had no choice but to take off his suit jacket to put it on her.

Shi Zhenxiang looked disgusted, raised her hand and pushed the suit away hard, her eyes still revealing her arrogant and condescending attitude.

"Isn't it all because your fiancée stirred things up in front of me? Does she really think she's some kind of innocent saint? Don't you even open your eyes and see if she's worthy of it?"

Zhou Shiyi's hand, which was wiping her face, suddenly froze. She never expected that Shi Zhenxiang would actually use her brain this time.

She lowered her eyelashes, then raised her reddened eyes again, looking at Jiang Shu with teary eyes: "Brother Jiang, how could I help outsiders bully Niannian? She's your sister, I love her dearly, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she deliberately looked at Wen Jinnian in a trembling voice.

Wen Jinnian sneered inwardly, but put on a wronged look: "Brother, Miss Shi was about to push me. I had just stood up when I was inexplicably tripped. Luckily, Prince Chi pulled me up, but somehow the pastry in his hand ended up on my sister-in-law's face."

My sister-in-law panicked and accidentally fell into the pool, didn't she, sister-in-law?

She raised an eyebrow and stared intently at Zhou Shiyi, her eyes full of provocation.

Zhou Shiyi cursed inwardly, her nails almost digging into her palms.

She never expected that Wen Jinian's pitiful appearance was all an act.

"Yes, I fell into the swimming pool by accident."

Zhou Shiyi said through gritted teeth.

"Brother, please don't blame Prince Chi! He was just passing by and kindly helped me up, which is why he accidentally bumped into my sister-in-law. Please don't hold it against him."

Jiang Shu's brows relaxed slightly as he looked down at her ankle: "You didn't twist it, did you?"

Wen Jinian subconsciously shrank back, "It's alright."

Jiang Shu then turned to Chi Yige and said, "Young Master Chi, thank you."

Chi Yige raised an eyebrow and chuckled, his nonchalant tone causing a stir: "No need to thank me, but I did it on purpose when I splashed your fiancée."

All eyes instantly focused on the aloof and arrogant young master, who slowly began to speak.

"I just happened to see her trip Miss Wen. I can't stand such a despicable tactic."

Zhou Shiyi's head exploded with a "buzz".

She never expected that Chi Yige, who was usually aloof and never meddlesome, would expose her in public and openly side with Wen Jinnian.

At that moment, she felt dizzy and disoriented; it was all over.

Wen Jinian was equally surprised.

In her memory, Chi Yige was not the type to meddle in other people's business, but today he unexpectedly helped her again.

Noticing her gaze, Chi Yige raised his eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips, his peach blossom eyes sparkling.

Wen Jinian hurriedly looked away, her cheeks burning involuntarily, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes.

She was still lost in her own thoughts.

Zhou Shiyi pleaded, her voice trembling with tears, "No, that's not how it is, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Shu interrupted him coldly: "Alright! No need to explain! How many times have I told you? Apologize to Nian Nian right now!"

"And you, Miss Shi, your father probably wouldn't want to see you behave this way either!"

Jiang Shu was indeed furious. Zhou Shiyi had repeatedly sabotaged Wen Jinnian, and it hurt him deeply. The incident occurred at the Fu family's swimming pool. When Fu Xianhan and Mei You rushed over, they caught Jiang Shu throwing a tantrum.

The guests had just arrived, and the scene was a bit chaotic.

Fu Xianhan stepped forward and said to Jiang Shu, "Nephew Jiang, your father is waiting for you in the hall. Go there first. I'll handle things here. Is that alright?"

Knowing his father's temper, Jiang Shu had no choice but to nod.

Mei You looked at the two people on the ground. These were all tricks they had already used. She looked away with disdain.

Finally, she turned her gaze to Wen Jinian, took her hand and said, "Niannian, for my sake, today is Yan Jie's birthday, let's just let this go."

Wen Jinian sneered inwardly, but put on a gentle smile: "I'll do whatever Auntie says."

"Oh, good boy." Mei You said, then winked at the two servants.

The maid immediately stepped forward and helped Zhou Shiyi and Shi Zhenxiang up.

"Take the two ladies to the guest room to change their clothes."

The farce ended abruptly at the suggestion of the villa owner.

Before she could free her hand, the other person led her to the front hall.

Mei You was increasingly satisfied with Wen Jin Nian's performance today, and the smile on her face became more genuine. "Your aunt is not feeling well and repeatedly told me to take good care of you."

She looked at the men and women at the front of the banquet hall and asked curiously, "Is there anyone you like?"

Wen Jinnian chuckled inwardly, but responded calmly, "The people who came today are all outstanding young talents with their own unique strengths."

As for her choice, she didn't like it and didn't want to become a tool for political marriage.

Shen Yu appeared out of nowhere and gently patted Chi Yige's shoulder.

The latter raised an eyebrow, and Shen Yu didn't beat around the bush, speaking directly.

"I heard that today's birthday party is not just a celebration, but actually an occasion for Mrs. Fu to choose a daughter-in-law. Look how warm she is to Wen, in my opinion, she is most likely to favor Miss Wen."

Chi Yige narrowed his eyes, his gaze following the slender figure until it finally settled on her waist, which he could encircle with one hand. His meaningful expression held emotions that others could not understand.

Only he knew how supple that incredibly slender waist was.

Among all the daughters of noble families, she was indeed the most special.

"Hmph." Chi Yige sneered, "Go and leak this news to Jiang Shu."

Shen Yu looked puzzled. In his opinion, shouldn't the priority be to eliminate those "love rivals" who posed no threat?
Chi Yige seemed to see through her thoughts, and glanced at him as if he were an idiot: "Jiang Shu's feelings for her are quite extraordinary."

Shen Yu then realized what was happening and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll take care of it."

The two talked as they walked, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the front hall of the garden.

On the large dining table, a two-tiered cake measuring over twenty inches was prominently displayed.

At this moment, Fu Yanjie was surrounded by a group of friends in the center, wearing a birthday hat and closing his eyes to make a wish.

Coincidentally.

Mei You led her over, and they were squeezed into the crowd.

After Fu Yanjie cut the cake, he picked up the first piece, his gaze slowly sweeping over everyone present, finally landing on Wen Jinnian.

He handed over the small plate containing the cake, a smile playing on his lips.

"Miss Wen, this first piece of cake is for you."

Fu Xianhan (a heartless man) and Mei You (no homophone)
