Are you stupid? I am the villain behind the scenes

After a long speech, Li Qingchi walked off the stage and took Hua Xi to greet the elders of the family one by one.

Hua Xi had an indifferent expression the whole time, until she stood in front of Shen Lingtan, then a hint of seriousness appeared in her cold eyes.

“Hello, Grandpa Shen.”

Shen Lingtan nodded and said with emotion: “I never thought that Chief Bai is Cen Yuan’s daughter.”

"Qingchi, you are blessed."

The smile on Li Qingchi's face became brighter and brighter, and he laughed heartily: "Yeah, I didn't expect Cen Yuan to give me such a big surprise."

Shen Lingtan forced a smile, which was somewhat bitter.

He looked at Hua Xi with complicated eyes, revealing deep regret and longing.

He couldn't help but think in his heart: If Xiaoyi hadn't run away, her child would probably be this big now.

At this moment, Li Qingchi suddenly seemed to remember and asked, "Isn't Yi Mu here?"

Hua Xi looked calm and replied calmly, "He is not feeling well."

Yi Mu's anorexia has not improved yet, and now he can only rely on nutritional supplements to barely maintain his energy. The banquet is filled with the aroma of food. It is really not suitable for him to stay here. He will probably vomit as soon as he comes in.

Li Qingchi showed a look of pity on his face, and said to Shen Lingtan: "Lingtan, don't leave after the banquet. There is a child for you to see."

Shen Lingtan was puzzled: "Is it the person you just mentioned, 'Yi Mu'? Who is he?"

Li Qingchi patted Shen Lingtan's shoulder and said mysteriously: "You will know when you meet him."

……

After the "social event" was over, Hua Xi quietly left the banquet hall through the back door without making a sound.

There was a person following closely behind her and also walked out of the banquet hall.

After a while, another person left.

……

There is a yard outside the back door. The surrounding walls are covered with green vines. The branches and leaves sway gently in the breeze.

When Hua Xi walked to the wall, she suddenly stopped.

She originally wanted to come out and have some peace and quiet, but someone didn't let her do so.

"I told you not to let me see you again." Hua Xi turned around slowly, staring at the man wearing a golden mask with icy eyes, "How dare you follow me?"

Ji Xianchen's eyes were filled with mixed emotions, confusion, worry, and a hint of unspeakable pain, "Hua Xi, I..."

"Get lost." Hua Xi interrupted him mercilessly, her voice so cold that it seemed to freeze, without any emotion at all.

"Get out of my sight before I change my mind."

Ji Xianchen did not listen to Hua Xi's words. Instead, he took a step forward. The distance between them was instantly shortened. His breathing became a little rapid, and his eyes were fixed on Hua Xi. "Why? Why do you want to go back to the Li family?"

Hua Xi raised her eyes and looked at Ji Xianchen coldly, "Does it have anything to do with you?"

Ji Xianchen frowned: "You know very well..."

However, before he could finish his words, he was pushed against the wall.

Hua Xi put her arm around Ji Xianchen's neck. "What I do is my business. If you say one more word, I don't mind putting Gu Tu's account on your head."

After hearing the latter sentence, Ji Xianchen knew that Gu Tu had not looked for Hua Xi, so where did he go?

This thought flashed through Ji Xianchen's mind at this moment, but it only lasted for a moment. What was more important at the moment was Hua Xi.

Ji Xianchen could sense that Hua Xi had murderous intentions towards him.

Are they really standing on opposite sides of this?

A feeling of sadness welled up in Ji Xianchen's heart.

"Okay, I'm leaving." Ji Xianchen said with difficulty. He knew that Hua Xi would not listen to anything he said at this moment.

Hua Xi put down her hand.

Ji Xianchen had just taken two steps when Hua Xi's voice came from behind him coldly: "It's best to take a detour when you see me next time. I won't show mercy next time."

Ji Xianchen paused for a moment, then strode away. His footsteps were particularly clear in the quiet courtyard.

After Ji Xianchen left, Hua Xi looked in one direction, "Have you heard enough?"

"It seems that there is some unpleasantness between Miss Bai and Lord Xuanzhou." A person slowly walked out from the corner with a faint smile on his face.

"Ms. Ye, eavesdropping is not a good habit." Hua Xi looked at her coldly, her eyes full of warnings.

Hua Chaochao adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, her smile remained unchanged, and her eyes were full of sincerity: "Miss Bai, you don't have to be so wary of me. I have no ill will towards you."

Hua Xi had a blank expression on her face, obviously not believing what she said.

"Miss Bai, don't you believe it? The master often mentioned you, saying that you are a junior he particularly admires. Before I came, he specifically told me that if Miss Bai encountered any problems and needed assistance, I should try my best to help."

Hua Xi's tone was still cold: "Really? Then please thank the Hidden Web Master for me."

Hua Chaochao smiled slightly, "Miss Bai, you are too polite."
