Xia Yangyang no longer had any other chance.
If she missed today, she feared she wouldn’t even have the chance to see Xi Zijun.
Moreover, she didn’t want to waste any more ti.
All she wanted now was a quick and decisive resolution.
Her goal was rely to let Gu Qichen know her true nature.
Whether Gu Qichen believed it or not, that was her business.
She just sought peace of mind.
After all, they were once married, and she really didn’t want Gu Qichen to be blind to the truth before him.
Xia Yangyang actually said it out loud, and she was too tired to waste words.
She cast her gaze on Gu Qichen beside her.
Xi Zijun simply turned to Gu Qichen and said, "Although I don’t want to explain this sort of thing, I’m afraid you might misunderstand. I don’t even understand how things turned out this way. Perhaps it’s because Miss Xia is still dissatisfied about our relationship. But such an accusation is too severe. You should know very well how I’ve treated Xia Ye all these years because she is your child. So, I cared for her. As for that kid nad Xingxing, I’ve never even t you, never had any interaction with you. I don’t know why Miss Xia would fabricate such a cri from thin air. If it’s really dissatisfaction, why not compete openly? I’m not a petty person, but to use a trumped-up charge to slander is truly despicable."
Xi Zijun spoke with such righteousness, it could even be called unwaveringly just.
In everyone’s eyes, she was definitely the most innocent one.
The voices of reproach below grew louder.
But Xia Yangyang didn’t care about any of it.
Perhaps the only thing she cared about was Gu Qichen’s attitude.
How would he handle and understand this matter?
Would he think she was fabricating accusations against Xi Zijun, or would he perhaps believe her words to so extent, even if it was just to plant a seed of doubt in him, Xia Yangyang thought it was worth it.
Gu Qichen’s expression remained calm and indifferent, as if nothing in this world could affect his emotions.
He was always wise and aloof, almost like an observer.
Imagining looking into such eyes, it only made her heart feel cold.
Finally, Gu Qichen spoke, "Miss Xia, if you’re here to give your blessings, I welco it. But if you’re here to cause trouble, then please leave now."
With one "Miss Xia," he had neatly severed all ties and emotions between them.
She had already anticipated such a result.
She felt neither anger nor disappointnt, only a sense of calm.
So things didn’t require a response from others, as long as she had a clear conscience.
She had publicly revealed the matter, she had exposed Xi Zijun’s true face, and that was enough for her to feel she owed nothing to Gu Qichen.
But if Gu Qichen didn’t believe it, there was nothing she could do.
Or maybe he knew in his heart, or perhaps he had a sliver of doubt, but in this situation, he chose to stand by Xi Zijun.
One was willing to hit, the other was willing to endure.
One was ruthless, the other pretended to be unknowing.
Why should she go to such lengths?
Xia Yangyang smiled slightly. "You two truly make a perfect couple. I wish you happiness."
With that, Xia Yangyang turned and left.
When she reached the door, Xia Yangyang glanced back.
At the main table, the clinking of glasses continued, and Gu Qichen and Xi Zijun were still toasting.
Everything that had just happened was like a stone thrown into the heart of a lake, causing ripples, but soon the calm returned.
