BXBX NOVEL Chapter 20 - 20 Take Her to the Banquet i
This bother wasn’t really a big deal to Dongfang Yu.
As long as they denied the divorce, no one else could determine the truth.
However, a little bit of saving face was still necessary.
For instance, as Chai Xiyang said, he and I lai Xiaotang needed to put up a show…
Even before it was dark, Dongfang Yu’s special assistant, Ji Chuan, arrived.
“Madam, the president has ordered me to pick you up for the banquet,” Ji Chuan stood in the living room, respectfully addressing I lai Xiaotang, who was seated on the sofa.
llai Xiaotang recognized him, she was fairly familiar with the people around Dongfang Yu.
However, in this lifetime, Ji Chuan had seen her only a few times, so he did not know her very well.
“Attend a banquet?” Hai Xiaotang was surprised.
Ji Chuan nodded: “Yes, tonight is the victory banquet of ‘Dongfang’, celebrating our company’s successful listing in the United States.”
“…” Hai Xiaotang paused.
She recalled that in her previous life, ‘Dongfang’ also held a victory banquet.
Only at that time, she had just crashed her car into Lin Xinxin, crying and making a ruckus with Dongfang Yu day after day. He was so frustrated with her that he never came home, and she was not included in the victory banquet.
In fact, she didn’t even know about the victory banquet from the start.
It wasn’t until much later that she learned about it. She even found out that the female companion Dongfang Yu had taken to the banquet that night was Lin Xinxin!
Yes, the night of the victory banquet, he still didn’t come home!
She had always thought that he had spent that night with Lin Xinxin.
That was also why she was so envious of Lin Xinxin and always sought to cause her trouble.
She was a woman and at that time her intuition constantly told her that Dongfang Yu’s feelings for Lin Xinxin were a bit different…
She was too panicked, so she kept using schemes to deal with Lin Xinxin.
But now that she intended to step aside for them in this life, why had the person Dongfang Yu wanted to accompany him turned out to be her?
Hai Xiaotang was not stupid, she immediately figured out the key.
They had just made a fuss about a divorce today, and Dongfang Yu wanted to bring her to the banquet, probably to clarify the rumors.
Hai Xiaotang felt that the ways of the world were indeed unpredictable.
In her previous life, she wanted to attend the banquet but didn’t. In this life, although she didn’t want to attend, she had accidentally gotten an opportunity. Pity, she has lost interest.
“When does the banquet start?” she asked casually.
Ji Chuan honestly replied, “It starts at 7 o’clock tonight.”
“It’s already 5 o’clock, why are you only notifying me now?”
“This… this was instructed by the president…”
Hai Xiaotang crossed her arms, her voice cold: “It’s obvious that he doesn’t want me to go, so why does he suddenly change his mind?”
Ji Chuan began to sweat; he didn’t expect the president’s wife to be so difficult to handle considering her young age.
“I am not sure, the president is the one who instructed me…”
“Who was the woman he originally invited?”
“…I don’t know,” Ji Chuan confessed, acting confused.
Hai Xiaotang stared at him, smiling: “I heard it was Director Lin. I’m not feeling well today, let Director Lin accompany him to the banquet.”
She genuinely didn’t want to act in a performance with Dongfang Yu.
Even without her act, he should be able to handle this issue. So why should she cooperate with him?
Moreover, she should give Lin Xinxin the opportunity, or else how should she push forward the relationship between the two?
Who would have thought that Ji Chuan’s next words would surprise her greatly. “Madam, are you referring to Lin Xinxin? She has been transferred and is no longer director of administration. She made a mistake and got transferred back to the design department.”
Hai Xiaotang was shocked, “Made a mistake? What kind of mistake did she make?”
