President's Brand

Chapter 31

"Ling He! Why do you treat her like this? What right do you have to blame her?" Cheng An put on a cold face, pointed at his nose and was about to step forward, but was pulled back by a strong force.

Looking back, seeing Qin Yao frowning and pulling her into his arms, Cheng An struggled unhappily, but was imprisoned even tighter by him.

"Let me tell you, you'd better ask your family about what happened back then!" Cheng An stared at him, his tone full of coldness, but her words made Ling He, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head, his eyes squeaked. He became serious.

"An'an!" Qin Yao pressed the struggling man in his arms, his tone cold.

Cheng An was furious, ignored his words at all, and just warned Ling He: "Ling He, if you dare to hurt her like this in the future, I will never forgive you!"

"Brother!" Qin Ran looked at Cheng An's arrogance, angrily, "Who is she?"

Qin Yao became irritable when he heard her words, and whispered with displeasure, "Friend!"

Cheng An's already gloomy face became even colder after hearing his words.

Ling He tidied up his clothes, looked up at Cheng An, and left expressionlessly.Watching him walk away, Qin Ran didn't dare to say anything even though he was dissatisfied, but he gave Cheng An a hard look, and hurriedly followed his pace.

In the corridor, there were still tears on Xi Mu's face, she sat there with her head down, not moving.

A pair of shiny leather shoes suddenly appeared in his eyes, Xi Mu raised his head in a daze, looked at the man in front of him, his mind went blank.

Qiao Xiyao looked down at her, and seeing her wet eyes filled with sadness, he immediately felt oppressed in his heart.

"Why are you crying?" Stretching out his hand to pull her up, Qiao Xiyao pulled her to his eyes, raised his hand to wipe away her tears, and said in a deep voice, "I'm so useless!"

Xi Mu sniffed hard, holding back the tears in her eyes, she wanted to push him away, but he pulled her back forcefully.

Putting her hand in the crook of his arm, Qiao Xiyao let her hold his arm so that she would not struggle.

Xi Mu looked at him blankly, seeing the firmness in his eyes, the resistance in his heart dissipated, the soft smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to infect her, making her calm down, followed his footsteps strangely, and walked towards the banquet hall go.

In the bright hall, a man walked like a king, and everyone held their breath under his powerful aura.Qiao Xiyao walked over in a graceful manner, his star-like eyes shone with a cold light, and in his arms, there was a beautiful figure suddenly...

In the center of the hall, everyone surrounded Qin Ling's family. At this time, the two walking from a distance attracted everyone's attention.The noisy crowd all quieted down, with unknown lights shining in their eyes, and some even started whispering.

Dai Ning who was standing by the side heard the discussion and turned around slowly.Her smiling face sank when she saw the woman in his arms, and the look in her eyes turned dark.

Qiao Xiyao walked over calmly and gracefully, with a cold smile on his lips.The woman in his arms felt the attention of the audience, her heart was beating violently, and her inexplicable panic made her get closer to the man beside her.

Looking at the two figures approaching, Ling He's gentle eyes turned into ice in an instant, his face turned ashen.

Walking in front of the crowd, Qiao Xiyao stopped in his tracks. He stretched out his hand to pick up two glasses of champagne, and handed them to her who bowed her head slightly sideways. Obsidian eyes flashed across her gloomy face. He frowned slightly and leaned into her ear He whispered, "Follow me, you don't need to bow your head!"

Xi Mu's nervous palms were sweating, but his voice rang in her ears calmly, which made her flustered heart find some comfort.

Looking up, I met his deep gaze, the shining lights couldn't compare to the brilliance in his eyes.Xi Mu looked at the light in his eyes and gradually calmed down.

Qiao Xiyao stared straight at her, and the moment she raised her head, those frightened eyes made his heart fluctuate.Seeing the clarity in her eyes, the corner of his mouth smiled unconsciously, his thin lips moved slightly, as if he had said something.

Xi Mu was shocked by the smile on the corner of his mouth, she had never seen such a gentle smile on his face in her memory, watching his thin lips move slightly, she understood the word he didn't say out loud, laugh!
His originally stiff face really eased in his gentle eyes, and even the smile on the corner of his mouth became natural.Raising her red lips, Xi Mu turned her eyes and looked at the man opposite, revealing a bright smile.

Putting the champagne in her hand, Qiao Xiyao raised the champagne in his hand, turned to face the astonished crowd, looked at them with raised eyebrows, and said in a deep voice, "Congratulations."

Stretching his arms around her waist, Qiao Xiyao hugged her a little harder, bringing the woman beside him back to his senses.Xi Mu took a deep breath, raised the wine glass in his hand, and met the unknown gazes of everyone, "Congratulations!"

Qin Ran's face changed drastically when he saw them approaching, and he was even more surprised when he saw these small movements between the two of them. The smile on the corner of her mouth froze suddenly, and she didn't know what to say.

Xi Mu looked at them calmly, she suppressed the pain in her heart, and kept a natural smile on her face.

Ding--

There was the sound of glasses clinking, Ling He picked up the glass with a sneer, and lightly touched the glass held by Xi Mu, followed by his cold voice: "Thank you!"

The eyes of the two met, and each other's eyes shone with a light that made each other strange.At this moment, a palpitation suddenly surged in Ling He's heart. Looking at the tranquility in her eyes, he panicked for no reason, and even had the urge to hug her tightly!

The slight tremor of the cups colliding was transmitted from the fingers to the bottom of my heart, making Xi Mu's heart tighten tightly.Wanting to avoid Ling He's gaze, he felt the palms around his waist tightening, his strength was transmitted, and his cold heart warmed up with the temperature of his palms.

Putting away the pain, she smiled, so that no one could see her wounds!

Everyone has been watching their actions, and when they saw Qiao Xiyao looking at the female companion beside him tenderly, they all showed incredulous expressions on their faces.Especially Ling Xiaohai, his always introverted eyes lingered on Xi Mu's face from time to time, seeing her obediently nestling beside Qiao Xiyao, his expression turned dark.

Qin Ran looked at the woman who was sticking to Qiao Xiyao's side, and was already furious. She glared at Xi Mu angrily, but her fierce eyes were caught by those obsidian eyes, and she was so frightened that she quickly closed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth exposed A stiff smile.
