Only what could possibly be the truth could be called a scandal.
What was fake could only be called a rumor.
From Xia Miliâs point of view, Su Jianâan was obviously showing off.
Xia Miliâs smile froze on her lips little by little. âMiss Su, are you showing off your identity as Mrs. Lu?â
Contrary to Xia Mili, Su Jianâanâs smile became more and more bright. âI often mention Boyan to others. Why donât others think I am showing off?â
â...â Xia Mili didnât respond.
Su Jianâan seemed to have observed something and said calmly, âIt seems that Miss Xia really cares about the identity of âMrs. Luâ.â
Every single word of hers perfectly poked Xia Miliâs wound.
Yes, Xia Mili was very concerned about this identity.
When she was at school, she always thought that except for her, no one was good enough for Lu Boyan.
However, even she was rejected by Lu Boyan.
After returning home, she especially checked the detailed information of Su Jianâan. Compared with her, Su Jianâanâs resume was much plainer.
Su Jianâanâs only advantage was her beauty.
But she did not believe that Lu Boyan was such a superficial person!
The corners of Xia Miliâs lips showed sarcasm. âMiss Su, donât be too confident. Beauty canât withstand the destruction of time, but talent can be accumulated through time.â
Su Jianâan looked at Xia Mili for two seconds and said in agreement, âIt can be seen from Miss Xiaâs body that the beauty without solid foundation canât withstand the destruction of time.â
The implication was that not only was Xia Mili not beautiful enough, but her beauty had also been damaged.
Xia Mili had worked hard in the business field for so many years, and the best skill she learned was to calm down.
Therefore, she was not irritated. Instead, she calmly retorted to Su Jianâan, âWomenâs youth only lasts a few years old. You are already 25 years old. How many years do you think you still have in your best situation?â
âCompared with the peak period of appearance, the most important thing is to face the truth frankly.â Su Jianâan had always maintained a harmless smile. âMiss Xia, you advise me not to be blindly confident. Itâs better to save some energy to persuade yourself not to be too narcissistic.â
Xia Mili stared at Su Jianâan and asked coldly, âWhat do you mean?â
âYou think youâre talented, and Iâm no match for you. Boyan should like you, right?â There was a hint of sarcasm in Su Jianâanâs smile. âBut have you ever considered whether Boyan needs talents? Does he need your talents?â
â...â This time, Xia Mili was totally speechless.
Su Jianâan gave Xia Mili a final attack. âBesides, itâs not that Boyan will like you as long as you wish and suppose he should. Otherwise, when you implied to him at school, he should have taken the initiative to pursue you. A few years ago, he was not interested in you. A few years later, do you think he would change his mind?â
In Xia Miliâs ears, Su Jianâan was obviously humiliating her.
She didnât want to give up!
Xia Mili suppressed the burning fury in her heart, and stared at Su Jianâan with her eyes like an arrow. âFrom now on, do you dare to compete fairly with me?â
Su Jianâan sneered and did not hide her irony. âFor a man who already has a wife and children? You went to find his wife, saying that you would destroy her family, and compete fairly with her for that man? Miss Xia, you are so shameless. Is this the good habit you learned in the U.S.?â
âSu Jianâan!â The anger in Xia Miliâs heart finally could not be suppressed. âIâve given you respect, donât...â
âI donât need your respect.â Su Jianâan interrupted Xia Mili coldly. âI wonât compete with you, either.â
Xia Mili asked in a sarcastic tone, âAre you afraid?â
âI have two children to take care of. Itâs stupid to waste time on you, isnât it?â Su Jianâan said frankly, âIf you think you have the ability to take Boyan away from me, you can do whatever you want. Iâll wait and see.â
It was only then that Xia Mili realized that Su Jianâan was not afraid, but confident.
Even if she had declared war, Su Jianâan did not take her as an opponent seriously. She didnât take it seriously so that she didnât care to fight.
To put it bluntly, Su Jianâan did not think that Xia Mili had the ability to take Lu Boyan away from her.
âSu Jianâan!â Xia Mili warned Su Jianâan word by word. âI will make you regret!â
Su Jianâan smiled lightly and said, âSomeone has told me the same thing. Well... she should be very regretful now.â
Xia Mili proudly emphasized, âIâm not her.â
Su Jianâan looked indifferent. âIn my eyes, you are the same.â
Xia Mili gave Su Jianâan a cold and murderous look, and then turned to leave.
Very soon! She would let Su Jianâan know soonâwhat was different between her and the opponents Su Jianâan had met before!
Su Jianâan did not take Xia Miliâs words to heart at all and went downstairs to find Lu Boyan.
Lu Boyan had finished talking with his friends and was going to look for Su Jianâan. When he saw her coming downstairs, he greeted her from a distance. âAre Xiyu and Xiangyi awake?â
Su Jianâan shook her head. âNo.â
Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianâan in confusion. âThen why did you stay upstairs for so long?â
In fact, it was Xia Mili who wasted her time.
However, Su Jianâan didnât mention Xia Mili. She just said, âYunyun went upstairs with me. I talked to her there.â
Xia Mili sent her a letter of challenge. It was a battle between her and Xia Mili.
Since Xia Mili was so unwilling, she would not let Lu Boyan intervene in this matter. She would deal with Xia Mili so that Xia Mili would be convinced of her defeat.
As for how she would fight with Xia Mili...
Well, she had her own way!
While she was thinking, a bodyguard rushed in and called Lu Boyan. When he saw Su Jianâan beside him, he suddenly stopped.
Su Jianâan could tell at a glance that there was something abnormal. She asked, âWhat did you find out?â
âWeâve found that Han, Han Ruoxi is outside.â
Han Ruoxi, this former glamorous female star, once stirred up a great disturbance between Lu Boyan and Su Jianâan. Everyone thought that Han Ruoxiâs name should be a taboo between Lu Boyan and Su Jianâan.
However, Su Jianâan was just a bit surprised and asked, âShe doesnât have an invitation, does she?â
The bodyguard shook his head. âOf course not!â
âOh,â Su Jianâan said. âThen if she would like to stay outside the hotel, itâs none of our business.â
The bodyguard looked at Lu Boyan with uncertainty. âBoss Lu, is it okay for us to just ignore Han Ruoxi?â
âOf course not,â Lu Boyan said coldly. âPay attention to her movements. If anything goes wrong, restrict her actions right away.â
âYes, sir!â The bodyguard finally got the correct order and turned to run out of the banquet hall.
Su Jianâan couldnât help sighing.
After dealing with Xia Mili, Han Ruoxi, the old rival, appeared.
The peaceful life which she had enjoyed when she was recovering after the delivery of two babies, was over, right?
Lu Boyan held Su Jianâanâs hand and looked at her. âWhatâs wrong?â
It was rare for him to hear Su Jianâan sigh.
Su Jianâan pursed her lips and smiled. She said lightly, âNothing.â
Lu Boyan thought for a moment and said, âIf itâs because of Han Ruoxi, I can let her go now.â
âHan Ruoxi can cause no effect on me.â Su Jianâan casually found an excuse. âIâm just a little tired.â
Lu Boyan looked at the time and frowned slightly. âThere are still two hours left. Iâll take you upstairs to have a rest first. Iâll pick you up when itâs over, okay?â
At this time, Su Jianâan saw Xia Miliâs figure out of the corner of her eye.
She decisively held Lu Boyanâs hand. âThere is an old rival in love outside, and there is a new rival inside. I canât leave you alone in the banquet hall. Itâs too dangerous!â
Lu Boyan smiled and looked at Su Jianâan. âWell, what should we do?â In his low tone, there was inadvertently exposed affection and care.
Su Jianâan leaned her head on Lu Boyanâs shoulder. âIâll tolerate the tiredness. Iâll stay with you.â
Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows in surprise. âCan you really hang on?â
Su Jianâan knew without guessing that as long as she said âI canât do itâ, Lu Boyan would definitely let her go back to rest.
She pursed her lips and said, âDonât worry. Itâs just that I havenât seen so many people for a long time. Itâs a little hard to deal with them. Take it as an entertainment!â
Lu Boyan did not say anything more. He took Su Jianâanâs hand and shuttled back and forth in the banquet hall.
Looking at their happy backs, Xia Mili subconsciously clenched the red wine glass in her hand.
Through the contact just now, she admitted that Su Jianâan was smarter than she had imagined.
She once thought that Su Jianâan was the kind of person who was soft and gentle, but now it seemed that Su Jianâan also had a tough side, but she never showed it easily in front of others.
âThatâs good. Itâs more challenging now.â
If Su Jianâan was just an ordinary housewife, to be honest, even if Xia Mili defeated her, it would not gain her a sense of accomplishment.
The more powerful Su Jianâan was, the more Xia Mili looked forward to seeing her frustrated look!
After staying for more than another hour and getting to know all the business celebrities in City A, Xia Mili went to say goodbye to Lu Boyan.
Lu Boyanâs response was polite but also alienated. âTake care.â
Xia Mili nodded and left the banquet hall with graceful and firm steps.
It was almost time to leave. One after another, guests came to say goodbye. By the time they saw off all the guests, it was already 11 oâclock in the night.
âLetâs go back to the room.â Su Jianâanâs heart was tied the two little guys. âXiyu and Xiangyi may wake up.â
The two little guys did wake up once, but after drinking the milk, they fell asleep again. Maybe because they knew that their parents were not here, according to Aunt Liuâs words, the two little guys were very obedient. They didnât cry or make a fuss. They were very quiet.
In order not to disturb the two little guys, the adults all went to the living room outside.
The living room covered an area of 40 square meters. There were two sets of luxury sofas, which were enough for everyone to have a seat.
Su Jianâan poured water for everyone and said, âAunt, didnât you just say that there was something to announce?â
It was getting late, and the matter had to be made public sooner or later. There was no point in delaying.
Therefore, it was better to get it over with now.
Hearing Su Jianâanâs words, all the people in the room looked at Su Yunjin. There was a little curiosity and expectation on Xiao Yunyunâs beautiful little face.
In the future, when thinking of this scene, Xiao Yunyun felt that her acting was really good.
If she wanted to be an actress, she could be given two chicken drumsticks for her lunch!
