Moreover, Xing Shu still had a trump card. She planned to announce it tomorrow night. It would depend on how far the Xing family would push her.
The Xing family intended to make the banquet a grand affair and sent out many invitations. They even specially emphasized that the Cheng family would be attending. Who in the capital did not want to get close to the Cheng family? All the invitations sent out had been accepted. The WeChat groups in the Beijing upper-class circle were also frantically guessing what might happen tomorrow night.
“Will Xing Shu appear? Cheng Xingyang probably hates to see Xing Shu now,
“Cheng Xingyang aside… The Xing family finds out that they’ve raised Xing Shu—this bastard—for so many years, they must be furious.”
“What a drama. I heard that Xing Shu’ s conduct is very unbecoming. She even admitted right to Cheng Xingyang’s face that she was screwing another man behind his back.”
While the WeChat groups were wild with gossip about Xing Shu, she slept until dawn. Everyone felt that Xing Shu would not dare to appear at the banquet, but it was the complete opposite. After Xing Shu woke up, she asked Nie Xi out to set her hair and do her makeup.
Nie Xi sat on the black chair. Seeing that Xing Shu was dressed up to the nines, her lips curled up. “Are you looking for trouble?”
Xing Shu narrowed her eyes and felt the sensation of the makeup brush sliding across her face. She snorted. “If I don’t go, they’ll only twist the facts and spin a worse narrative.”
Nie Xi smiled and lowered her eyes. “Will President Cheng go?
Xing Shu replied, “I don’t know.” She had applied for leave today and did not go to the office. Jian Yaochuan called her halfway and asked about the relocation of the welfare home. Xing Shu roughly told him a few requests, and Jian Yaochuan said that he would handle the matter.
“He probably won’t go.” Xing Shu closed her eyes and waited quietly for the stylist to put on her makeup.
Nie Xi looked at her newly-done manicure and teased, “I think President
Cheng will go. He treats you a little differently.”
