Shi Xi could not understand the difference.

However, Hua Xuanhe had already said that she could only wait here.

After Xie Yunzhou came in, the voices at the gala became weaker.

Everyone sized up Xie Yunzhou from time to time, discussing something with the people around them in low voices.

However, when Xie Yunzhou’s gaze swept past them, their gazes became evasive again, not daring to look him in the eye.

Xie Yunzhou swept his gaze across the crowd before finally landing his gaze on Shi Xi.

He walked straight toward Shi Xi.

“Sorry, something came up at the last minute, so I came a little late.” Xie Yunzhou only looked at Shi Xi.

Shi Xi’s eyes curved into crescents. “It’s fine. I just arrived not long ago.”

Hua Xuanhe, who had been ignored, “Cough!” Can you see me?

Xie Yunzhou then turned his gaze to Hua Xuanhe. “If President Hua is busy, I’ll take Xi Xi somewhere else first.”

Hua Xuanhe: ?

He might as well not have seen him.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” Hua Xuanhe raised his chin slightly. “I heard that the Xie family hasn’t been very stable recently.”

“If there’s anything you need help with, just tell me. He’ll definitely help you.” Shi Xi helped him with the rest of the sentence.

Hua Xuanhe: ??

Was this a married sister?

Ah, no, she hadn’t even gotten married yet!

“No need,” Xie Yunzhou replied calmly.

Hua Xuanhe thought that he was trying to be brave, and his eyebrows sank. “There’s no need to be so polite between us.”

“You’re welcome. I know what I’m doing.” Xie Yunzhou didn’t want to say anything more. He held the girl’s hand and said, “I have something to say to Xi Xi. Excuse me.”

Hua Xuanhe: “…”

Shi Xi followed him to a corner of the banquet hall and asked, “What’s wrong? Did you miss me? Didn’t I give you a small cake? Is it delicious?”

“I miss you. It was delicious.” Xie Yunzhou restrained himself and did not hug her directly. Instead, he gently caressed her hand. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming back so I could pick you up?”

“The production team was in a hurry, so I came back directly,” Shi Xi explained. “I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to be so busy and travel back and forth for me.”

“Work is not as important as you. I missed you so much,” Xie Yunzhou said, restraining himself.

“I haven’t been away for long.” Shi Xi was about to count the days before she returned when she was stopped by Xie Yunzhou.

Xie Yunzhou looked into the girl’s eyes seriously. “I started to miss you the minute you left.”

Although it was a rustic love line, it sounded quite useful.

Shi Xi’s voice softened. “Then I’ll be by your side often in the future.”

“Alright.”

“Are you really not going to accept my brother’s help?” Shi Xi asked as she played with his fingers.

Xie Yunzhou looked down at her.

“He’s not an outsider.” Shi Xi was not afraid of him at all. “If you need anything, just tell him directly.”

How many people wanted their family’s help!

However, Xie Yunzhou rejected directly.

“Yan Linlang wants to target me. If I ask Hua Xuanhe for help now, I’ll only drag him down with me,” Xie Yunzhou said softly.

Shi Xi agreed.

Xie Yunzhou saw her worry and comforted her. “Don’t worry. I’m confident that I can survive this turmoil. Taking advantage of this time, I can see the problem left behind by the Xie family. After this, I will be able to firmly control the sovereignty of the Xie family.”

Shi Xi was skeptical. “Really?”

Xie Yunzhou nodded. “When have I ever boasted?”

Thinking about Xie Yunzhou’s ability, there was really no need to hold on.

At most, she would support him.

“Then I won’t ask anymore.” Shi Xi’s eyes curved. “But if you need help, you must let me know! Understand?”

“Alright.
