Chapter 553: Acting

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shi Man slowly walked up to Wen Xiu and frowned. “Why are you here?”

Wen Xiu was stunned for a moment. When she faced Shi Man again, she was no longer as arrogant as before. Coupled with the fact that the wound on her abdomen was really painful, her face immediately turned pale. She said, “Didn’t you call me over? It hurts so much. Quickly find a seat for me to rest for a while.”

Shi Man raised her hand and called the waiter at the side to help her rest first. Seeing that her face was getting paler, she must have pulled on the wound that had yet to heal. She called the private doctor at home and asked him to come over quickly.

From Chu Yue’s angle, she only saw Shi Man walk up to Wen Xiu with a dissatisfied expression and wave for someone to take her away. However, she did not expect Wen Xiu to really leave just like that!

How could this be?

If Wen Xiu didn’t make a fuss, wouldn’t it be meaningless for her to arrange this scene today?

Chu Yue gritted her teeth and made up her mind. She took the initiative to walk forward. When Wen Xiu was helped past Yi Zheng, she suddenly screamed and fell towards Wen Xiu.

Wen Xiu was injured and could not dodge in time. She could only watch helplessly as this person who suddenly appeared collided with her.

The wounds on her body suddenly felt a tearing pain. Her body fell towards Yi Zheng uncontrollably and in the next moment, she fell into his arms.

Everything happened in a flash.

Chu Yue’s scream just now successfully attracted the attention of many people.

When everyone turned around to look, they happened to see an unfamiliar woman fall into the arms of the male lead tonight.

Shi Man’s expression darkened.

When Chu Yue saw this scene, her eyes were filled with smugness.

She deliberately shouted in pain and asked the surrounding waiters to help her up. Then, she looked at her ankle with a pained expression. “I’m really sorry. I think I sprained my ankle just now. Are you alright?”

Wen Xiu’s face twisted in pain, but the surrounding waiters were forcefully pulled to her side by Chu Yue. She fell into Yi Zheng’s arms and could not stand up.

Yi Zheng wanted to push her away, but seeing that her bandaged abdomen was already bleeding, his outstretched hand paused in midair and he looked at Shi Man innocently.

Wen Xiu’s wound was caused to save Shi He. Shi Man had always repaid kindness, so she naturally did not mind her temporarily leaning in Yi Zheng’s arms. However, it was not necessarily the case for another person who deliberately pushed Wen Xiu down.

Shi Man’s face darkened as she slowly walked over and gently helped Wen Xiu into her arms.

At this moment, Wen Xiu was already sweating from the pain, and her pale and dry lips were trembling uncontrollably.

Shi Man frowned and was about to call someone to quickly send Wen Xiu back to the hospital when someone among the guests who came to the banquet recognized Wen Xiu and exclaimed, “Isn’t this that girl from the Wen family? I even carried her when she was young! Why is she here?”

“Old Wen’s family? I think I heard someone say that President Yi once had a fiancee who was engaged when she was young. Her surname seems to be Wen?”

The surrounding noise kept entering her ears. Wen Xiu’s face turned green from the pain. She did not forget to complain in her heart about when she became so famous that even the people in G City knew that she was Yi Zheng’s fiancee!

Shi Man looked thoughtfully at Chu Yue, who had been helped to a chair. Coincidentally, she also looked over slowly. Their eyes met, and Shi Man could clearly see the smugness in her eyes.

It was self-evident who had directed tonight’s show.

Shi Man sneered in her heart, but her face was still expressionless. “Take Miss

Wen down to rest and get the doctor to come over quickly.”

“Yes.” The waiters had actually been bribed by Chu Yue’s coercion, but since Shi Man had personally spoken, they did not dare to really go against her. They could only lower their heads and walk over.

“Wait!” When Chu Yue saw that Wen Xiu was useless and was still leaning against Shi Man without saying a word, she immediately made up her mind and said coldly, “Miss, I’m really sorry just now. 1 didn’t expect you to be President Yi’s fiancee. You’re so weak, but you actually came to see him off personally. I admire your relationship very much.”

Admiration her ass! Wen Xiu was already cursing in her heart.

If not for the fact that she did not want to offend Shi Man, she would not have secretly run out of the hospital behind the doctor’s back to suffer!

What nonsense was this woman talking about? Could this be the vicious supporting actress that often appeared in television dramas?

With this thought in mind, Wen Xiu forced herself to open her eyes. She opened them only a crack and glared at Chu Yue with sweat on her forehead. “Don’t spout nonsense.”

Her voice was too weak, so Chu Yue did not hear her clearly. She only thought confidently that she had echoed her words. She quickly added fuel to the fire and shouted, “I know you’re here to ask Shi Man for an explanation! She stole your fiance and caused you to become like this.. I’ll definitely uphold justice for you!”
