Tang Xi’s eyes had a gleam of surprise and she looked at He Wanzhou in surprise, asking, “Sir, are you…?”

Qiao Liang who was disguised as her bodyguard came over with a frown and coldly said, “Sir, please leave. Our miss doesn’t know you.”

He Wanzhou certainly wouldn’t leave. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang Xi all smiles. “Xixi, don’t you remember me? We both studied in Harvard before! You delivered a speech on behalf of freshmen in the school opening day and we had shaken hands on that day.” He touched his face and said with a smile, “Don’t tell me you have forgotten this handsome face!”

Qiao Liang’s face darkened and Tang Xi was at a loss what to say. She did give a speech on behalf of the graduating students, but she had no impression on He Wanzhou!

Besides, why did he come over to talk to her?

Seeing her look, He Wanzhou shrugged and said a bit sadly, “Alright, it seems that you don’t remember me.” Then he asked as if he was intimate with Tang Xi, “May I ask where you are going, Xixi?”

Tang Xi frowned and He Wanzhou shrugged. “Okay, I shouldn’t ask this question. May I invite you to a dinner next time? We both live in this hotel and I think we’ll meet again.”

Tang Xi paused and said with a smile, “Sorry, I’m on the way to the airport.”

He Wanzhou frowned. “Airport?” Didn’t Rourou say she would talk with this Tang Xi this afternoon? It seemed that she had been rejected by Tang Xi.

“Sir, please move away.” Qiao Liang said coldly.

He Wanzhou took a look at Qiao Liang, raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Tang Xi who had sat in the car. Then he said with a smile, “Xixi, although your bodyguard is handsome, he is too grumpy. You might offend people because of him. I suggest you change him as soon as possible.”

haha…

Tang Xi almost burst into fits of laughter. He Wanzhou was so hilarious. She nodded at He Wanzhou, saying, “Thanks for reminding me. Bye.” She took a look at Qiao Liang who narrowed his eyes, gave a threatening stare at He Wanzhou and got into the car.

Tang Xi took a look at He Wanzhou who closed the car door for her with a smile. Tang Xi nodded and thanked him, and Qiao Liang drove the car away.

During the whole process, Tang Xi didn’t say anything, looking n.o.ble and indifferent.

He Wanzhou watched the car driving away and took out his cell phon to make a call. “Oh my G.o.d! Tang Xi is living in the same hotel with us! Have Qiao Liang and Rourou met her in the hotel? By the way, I just talked to Tang Xi who was so proud and n.o.ble! She merely said less than twenty words to me!”

On the other end of the line, Ning Yan yawned. “No wonder you opened an entertainment company. I think you’re even more excited than Tang Xi’s ex-boyfriend, Qiao Liang. What’s the big deal that she lives in the same hotel as us?”

“I didn’t remember, until I saw her, that we used to study in the same university! She got her bachelor degree at the Empire University and then got her master degree at Harvard. I mentioned this to her just now, but she didn’t remember me at all! And she even treated me as a swindler!”

“I’m glad to hear that.” Ning Yan sounded tired. He asked impatiently, “Aren’t you tired? You just took an eight-hour flight, but you don’t feel tired at all? I have to say I admire your energy.”

“Don’t waste the time on sleeping!” He Wanzhou said excitedly, “By the way, I think Rourou failed in persuading her. Just now Tang Xi said she was going to the airport. She must be leaving Paris, and then…”

Ning Yan sighed. “You shouldn’t be the boss of an entertainment company but a paparazzi instead. That job is perfect for you.” With that, he hung up the call. He Wanzhou didn’t want to sleep, but he needed to sleep.

Tang Xi and Qin Xinying chose a cafe not far away from the place where Lawrence would hold a dinner party. Tang Xi send Qin Xinying the location. After meeting Qin Xinying here, she would buy a dress in the shops nearby to attend Lawrence’s dinner party.

Tang Xi was sitting at a table alone and sipping the coffee, and Qiao Liang was sitting at the next table. Tang Xi waited for about twenty minutes and Qin Xinying hadn’t come. Tang Xi took out her cell phone to check the Microblog and found that “Tang Xi and Qin Xinying” remained the most searched hashtag. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. This hashtag had disappeared from the list of the most searched hashtags just now. The Qin’s Group must have taken some PR measures, but now it appeared in the list again.

It seemed that the netizens were really disgusted by Qin Xinying’s behaviors.

Tang Xi turned up the corners of her mouth and her eyes had a cold gleam. Qin Xinying, it seems that your career has been ruined.

She put away her cell phone and looked out of the window only to find Qin Xinying was looking at her at the door. She indifferently took back her gaze. Qin Xinying frowned and clenched her hands; she walked into the cafe and sat down opposite to Tang Xi who raised her eyebrows and looked at Qin Xinying, asking, “Why do you want to see me?”

Qin Xinying clenched her fists, looked at Tang Xi and pursed her lips as she said imploringly, “Can you clarify for me? Tell people those design drawings are not yours but mine. After all, you already have owned so much. Those design drawings don’t mean anything to you. Give them to me. Just take it as your alms to me, okay? Give the original ma.n.u.scripts to me.”

Hearing her shameless request, Tang Xi gave her a cold smile. She looked sarcastically at Qin Xinying and narrowed her eyes. “Give them to you? Alms? Are you a beggar? Or is it that I’m your savior? Why should I give them to you? Those design drawings are actually mine. Why should I tell people they are yours?”

Qin Xinying took a deep breath. “But you don’t need them! Why don’t you just give them to me? Are you taking revenge on me because I love Qiao Liang? You want to ruin me, right? When did you become so mean? Don’t forget that you lost Qiao Liang not because of me! The woman called Xiao Rou stole him from you! You should take revenge on her!”

“Haha…” Tang Xi chuckled and leaned backward. She crosses her legs, narrowed her eyes and looked at Qin Xinying, snorting. “Revenge? Qin Xinying, I don’t think you deserve my revenge. Let me tell you, since you did steal my design drawings, I will just tell the truth. Be prepared!”
