And the little girl's lie was immediately revealed.

Only then did Li Yan realize that she had just been deceived by a child, and then she said with some embarrassment: "I'm really sorry for what I just said. I didn't know she was..."

"It's okay. Someone must have instigated it. It was because I was not careful that something like this happened." Before Li Yan could finish her words, Xia Qingrou smoothed things over for her.

"Anyway, I was too impulsive. Don't take those words to heart. I just felt sorry for the child and was anxious, so I talked nonsense." Li Yan's words were full of apology.

Xia Qingrou smiled slightly: "I know you have good intentions, but don't worry about it. Don't let this little incident affect such a wonderful reception."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's have tea together when we have the chance." Li Yan also laughed heartily.

"Okay." Xia Qingrou responded softly.

Those who were watching, after the little girl made such a fuss, their good impression of Xia Qingrou was restored again, and at the same time they were secretly happy in their hearts. Fortunately, they didn't follow Li Yan to help the little girl stand out just now.

Shi Fuxun took Xia Qingrou and left here with a dark face.

When she reached the balcony, Xia Qingrou smiled and took his hand, stopping: "Don't be angry, she also means well."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Fuxun put his arms around the woman and took her into his arms.

After a long time, he didn't speak.

He couldn't imagine what he would do if those snakes bit Xia Qingrou.

Xia Qingrou stood there blankly. After a while, she pushed Shi Fuxun and asked, "What's wrong? Am I still standing here fine?"

He released Xia Qingrou and looked at her with an uneasy expression: "Did you know that little girl wanted to push you away? If I had been a little late..."

Shi Fuxun's face instantly darkened. Originally, he just thought the little girl was naughty.

When he saw the snakes under the table, his scalp went numb, and he couldn't imagine why an age that should be innocent and kind would do such a sinister thing.

Xia Qingrou couldn't help but become scared: "Did she really do this?"

"There can still be lies." Shi Fuxun said angrily.

And she couldn't help being shocked. After a moment, she came back to her senses and sighed softly: "I don't know who is so cruel to teach children like this."

"Yes." The man responded softly, then stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, and said with lingering fear: "Just be okay, just follow me closely, I won't leave you alone again."

Feeling his emotions, Xia Qingrou raised her head with a smile and said in a gentle voice: "Okay, I will just pay more attention in the future. I will learn a lesson from this experience. I will take this as a lesson."

Shi Fuxun suddenly thought of something, stretched out his hand to pull the woman away, and then checked carefully to confirm that Xia Qingrou was not injured, and then he felt relieved.

"Does it hurt?" Xia Qingrou asked with distress as she looked down at the tooth marks on Shi Fuxun's hand.

Shi Fuxun took his hand out and said warmly, "It doesn't hurt. Just hope you're fine."

Right now.

Li Shishi came over from a distance: "Mr. Shi, long time no see."

But Shi Fuxun ignored her plan, took Xia Wan's hand and walked to a crowded place: "Let's go there."

Li Shishi's expression changed, but she quickly returned to normal.

When she looked at Shi Fuxun again, she had already put on a gentle smile: "Mr. Shi, I am now the financial director of Wansheng Enterprises. I would also like to thank you for your special care and careful cultivation of me over the years. Otherwise, It wouldn’t have made me what I am today.”

Shi Fuxun just raised his head, swept over her body coldly, and then continued to walk forward.

When Li Shishi saw that he was completely ignoring her, her pupils changed slightly and her hands tightened.

Then he stepped forward and took Xia Qingrou's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Xin, you just said you wanted to have a drink with me. Shi always has something to do. We will take you there to meet other friends. It's okay. It's okay. Let’s go out for coffee together.”

Xia Qingrou looked down at Li Shishi's hand, her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.

After a moment, she broke away from Shi Fuxun and followed Li Shishi's words with a smile: "Okay."

Then she turned around and whispered to the man next to her: "I'll come as soon as I go."

After saying that, Xia Qingrou followed Li Shishi to other places.

But Shi Fuxun's eyes were fixed on the two people's leaving figures.

"Sister Xin, you rarely attend cocktail parties like this, right?" Li Shishi held Xia Qingrou's arm in both hands and asked in a pretentious manner.

Xia Qingrou nodded gently: "Yes."

Li Shishi couldn't help but sneer in her heart, but she kept her original smile on the surface: "As a woman from Mr. Shi, it is difficult to attend such a cocktail party without knowing other celebrities."

Xia Qingrou just pursed her lips and smiled without saying anything else.

When Li Shishi saw that she was silent, she continued: "In the beginning, everyone went from not knowing each other to becoming familiar with each other."

From the corner of her eyes, she glanced at Xia Qingrou from time to time, and she felt jealous when she saw the Star of the Sea around her neck.

Then she continued: "Although women don't care much about things in shopping malls, in fact, there are several wives of company chairman who really don't care about anything at all."

"Especially for a young and promising person like Mr. Shi who has so many things to deal with every day, he needs someone to help him take care of everything behind the scenes."

Li Shishi's eyes swept over Xia Qingrou's face, and seeing that she did not waver, she continued: "When I was still in the company, I always worked overtime with Mr. Shi until very late. He was reviewing documents, so I helped him. I help him take care of the chores, help him sort out the financial issues, and sometimes we discuss the company’s development together.”

She said seriously, but her face was filled with deep love: "I have been with Mr. Shi at Shi's Enterprise for five years. I have seen his hard work and dedication and participated in his work these years. All growth.”

Xia Qingrou raised her head and glanced at Li Shishi. Her meaning was very clear.

She just wanted to tell herself that she was the most suitable woman to stand beside Shi Fuxun.

Although Xia Qingrou felt very sorry for missing the opportunity to get along with him in the past five years, she did not envy what Li Shishi said at all.

She was also very clear about Shi Fuxun's feelings for her, so naturally she would not misunderstand him just because of Li Shishi's few words.

"Do you like him?" Xia Qingrou asked lightly.

Li Shishi was startled.

After a moment, she came back to her senses, put away the smile on her face, and answered firmly: "Yes, I fell in love with him from the first day I entered the company, so over the years, I have been working hard and thinking I want to make myself stronger, to catch up in his footsteps, and to become a woman truly worthy of walking side by side with him."
