Shen's mother naturally also saw them leaving. Faced with her friends' teasing looks, she could only smile without saying a word, but secretly she wished she could bite her teeth off.

Lin Youqiao and Lin Lou on the other side also looked very unhappy, but they had to endure it.

Others discussed in low voices.

"What exactly is going on?"

"You can't tell. You should know if you bring people to this kind of place openly."

"I thought it was just to give the child some dignity, but I didn't expect it to be serious."

"It's hard to say, maybe it's just for fun?"

"Shh, don't let Mr. Shen hear this."

There were also girls gathered together to express their envy.

"Boss Shen is so considerate. Miss Xu just had juice spilled on her skirt, but he personally accompanied her to clean it. I'm so envious."

"What, just because of this? Oh my god, Mr. Shen can actually be so considerate."

"Otherwise, how could this Miss Xu give birth to Mr. Shen's child? She must have a special place in Mr. Shen's heart."

The focus of everyone's discussion was different, but the protagonists were all Xu Xiu and Shen Xingyi.

At this time, the two protagonists had already walked into the lounge.

Xu Xiu saw Shen Xingyi asking someone to get medicine for injuries and hurriedly stopped him.

"I'm really fine, just ask Avi to come over."

But her strong refusal made Shen Xingyi conclude that his injuries must be serious.

In his impression, Xu Xiu has always been carefree and would solve problems on his own. If he really just sprained his ankle, he would probably not even mention it.

But now, not only did she take the initiative to find Zhang Zhou, she also asked her bodyguard to support her. It seemed that she was seriously injured.

Thinking this way, Shen Xingyi took the small medicine box handed over by the waiter and knelt on one knee in front of Xu Xiu:

"Which foot?"

His expression was calm, and there was no trace of nervousness or worry in his voice. Only his dark eyes revealed a hint of emotion.

Xu Xiu subconsciously put her feet under her skirt:

"How about I do it myself."

She was about to take the medicine box and prepare to do it herself, but she didn't expect Shen Xingyi to directly lift up her fishtail skirt and hold her ankle with his big hand.

Xu Xiu was stunned for a moment, looking at his actions in shock.

Shen Xingyi's eyes were calm, as if what he was doing was a common thing. He raised his eyes and looked at Xu Xiu:

"Is it this foot?"

Seeing that Xu Xiu didn't say anything, she carefully took off her high heels, placed her palm on Xu Xiu's heel, and almost covered most of her foot with one hand.

"Does this hurt?"

His force was very light, and his fingertips almost rested on the soles of his feet.

Xu Xiu's body was frozen and motionless, as if his life force was being held.

What else could she say now? She could only bite the bullet and admit that she had sprained her foot.

Shen Xingyi took a bottle of spray for sprains and bruises, carefully sprayed it on her ankles and feet, and then kneaded them gently.

The warm touch of the palm coming from the soles of his feet made Xu Xiu shiver and he couldn't help but look at him.

At this moment, Shen Xingyi still had that dignified look, wearing a well-fitting suit and half-kneeling in front of her, kneading her ankle with a focused look, his eyebrows and eyes were cold yet so deep that people couldn't see clearly.

Xu Xiu felt uncomfortable.

She used some force to pull her foot back.

Shen Xingyi paused and looked up at her.

A pair of phoenix eyes looked over through the lenses, and unexpectedly there was some deep affection in them.

Xu Xiu quickly looked away and cleared his throat:

"Thank you. I'm fine now."

Shen Xingyi looked at her in silence for a long time before he lowered his head and put away all the medicines.

Xu Xiu glanced at the marks on her skirt and almost forgot the main purpose of leaving the banquet.

She stood up and took the initiative to hold Shen Xingyi's arms:

"Help me go to the bathroom."

Xu Xiu thought that it would be better for her to support him than to be supported by him like just now.

Just when they were leaving the banquet hall, Shen Xingyi instantly held her in his arms. The feeling of being enveloped by his aura made Xu Xiu's heart beat faster instinctively.

Shen Xingyi did not resist and let Xu Xiu do what he wanted. He lowered his eyes and looked at his arms.

A few white fingers were vaguely covered on his black suit jacket. The extreme contrast between white and black made Shen Xingyi's eyes darken.

Arriving outside the bathroom door, Xu Xiu looked inside vigilantly, then glanced at Shen Xingyi with disdain.

If it was Avi who came, she could accompany me in.

She worriedly told Shen Xingyi:

"If I don't come out in a while, remember to come in and find me. Also, if there are any guests dragging suitcases or cleaning staff pushing carts, stop them."

Xu Xiu recounted all the possible scenarios he had seen.

Her serious look made Shen Xingyi frown, and when she was about to go in, he grabbed her wrist:

"Did something happen?"

His voice deepened, and the look in his eyes as he looked into the bathroom became cold and sharp.

Xu Xiu struggled but failed to pull his hand back, so he made up an excuse:

"I've been watching a crime movie lately and I'm having some aftereffects."

She forced her hand back and went into the bathroom under Shen Xingyi's half-believing and half-doubting gaze.

After washing the juice stains on the hem of her clothes, she looked at herself in the mirror and smiled helplessly.

It's because Ji Zhirun was portrayed as too abnormal and neurotic in the plot, which made her nervous and afraid of everything.

After Xu Xiu left, he felt much more relaxed. He looked at Shen Xingyi and said:

"Let's go."

After saying that, she picked up her skirt and was about to leave.

Shen Xingyi first glanced at the bathroom behind her, then looked at her feet:

"Is your foot okay?"

Xu Xiu froze for a moment, and took his arm:

"Better."

After the two returned to the banquet hall, Little Bean was the first to walk up to them with small steps, looking at them with accusing eyes.

"Mom, you guys never take me with you wherever you go."

Xu Xiu looked at the aggrieved little kid, squatted down to help him straighten his tie, and comforted him:

"Mom's skirt is dirty, go wash it."

Shen Xingyi also spoke up and explained why he was leaving:

"Mom sprained her ankle, I need to support her."

When the little kid heard that his mother was injured, he immediately came close to her with a worried look on his face:

"Mom, let me help you sit down."

So the father and son each supported one of Xu Xiu's arms and walked towards the rest area.

This scene attracted a lot of people's attention.

Xu Xiu carried the little kid to the sofa. Seeing the guests looking over here from time to time, she said to Shen Xingyi:

"Go ahead and do your work. Thank you for what I just did."

Shen Xingyi, who was about to sit down, froze and looked at Xu Xiu coldly.

But Xu Xiu didn't even bother to give him a glance. Shen Xingyi pursed his lips and said sullenly:

"Take some rest first."

Then left here.

After a while, Zhang Zhou came over carrying a box.

"Ms. Xu, these are the shoes that Mr. Shen asked me to bring to you."

Xu Xiu opened it and saw a pair of flat crystal shoes.

She subconsciously looked towards Shen Xingyi in the center of the venue.

At this moment, he was surrounded by several men.

He stood straight and calmly accepted the compliments from those around him. The indifference and aloofness of a superior looking down on everyone else made people dare not touch him at all.

Xu Xiu admired it for a moment, then looked away and thanked Zhang Zhou.

And just as Xu Xiu looked away, Shen Xingyi also looked at her, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

When the atmosphere of the dinner was in full swing, a man in a gray suit slowly walked into the venue.

The scar at the corner of his eye could not be ignored. His sharp eyes scanned the entire room and fell on Xu Xiu in the corner.
