Chapter 372: What If I’m Serious?
Seeing that Su Yan had rejected Xia Zijian, those who had wanted to joke with Xia Jiang about this matter also held back. From Su Yan’s attitude, they could see some clues and knew that this matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed on the surface. They didn’t know the exact situation. If they continued to joke about this matter, it was very likely that they would offend both Su Yan and the Xia family at the same time. Hence, everyone changed the topic and started to talk about other matters with Xia Jiang.
Although the topic had changed, the relationship between Su Yan and Xia Zijian was really a very sensitive issue. She naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
Xia Jiang went to the side with a few friends to chat about literature and antiques. Xia Zijian held a glass of red wine and handed it to Su Yan. “I was just joking. You’re not angry, right?”
Su Yan took the glass of red wine. “It’s okay. I know that Young Master Xia is joking.”
Although she said that, she knew very clearly. Xia Jiang had asked her to accompany him out today in order to give her son a good start. He had even sung and drank with Xia Zijian to test her attitude. She wasn’t new to society, so she naturally understood everything.
Hearing her say that, Xia Zijian rolled his eyes and said, “But what if I’m serious?”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows and said, “You said it yourself. You have so many girlfriends, so I won’t join in the fun.”
Xia Zijian’s degree of philandering was known to the world. Even if he was good in all aspects, he would definitely not be one of the candidates Su Yan was considering. To be with such a playboy, she had to be able to endure being constantly cheated on.
“Don’t! You’re not allowed to join in the fun. Although I have a lot of girls around me, with a beautiful girl like you suppressing the others, those little girls will naturally retreat.” Xia Zijian said with a smile.
“Forget it. I have many thorns. I’m afraid that it will hurt Young Master Xia.” Su Yan raised her eyebrows and said.
…
Hearing Su Yan half-jokingly reject him again, Xia Zijian drank a big mouthful of red wine and felt a little depressed. As a second-generation rich man, he had never failed in wooing wome. No matter how virtuous the virgins were or how feisty they were, they would eventually be won over by his sweet words and powerful financial resources, but Su Yan was really too difficult to deal with. This made him feel very frustrated from the bottom of his heart.
Looking at Su Yan, Xia Zijian raised his eyebrows and said, “I don’t understand. How is Wei Zhou better than me? You chose to marry him back then, but you aren’t willing to give me a chance?”
Su Yan curled the corners of her mouth and said, “Wei Zhou? Young Master Xia, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t say that you’re worse than Wei Zhou. It’s just that the two of us aren’t fated.”
Xia Zijian snorted and said, “I know what you’re thinking. You just think that I’m a playboy, so you’re against me from the bottom of your heart.”
Hearing him say this, Su Yan didn’t continue. She couldn’t and didn’t want to reply. Not only was she clean on the surface, but she was even cleaner inside. She couldn’t stand a playboy who had owned so many women.
Xia Zijian knew that she had tacitly agreed, so he said, “Then do you know that Wei Zhou also isn’t a clean person in this aspect? You have been married to him for three years. Didn’t he also have scandals with other women?”
He drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp. “Moreover, Wei Zhou is a cold and heartless person. He is like a robot who does not care about the world. If you are with someone like him, the person who will be injured in the end will be you. You can rest here. I will go over there and say hello to my friends.”
With that, Xia Zijian left without looking back. He seemed to be a little angry, but Su Yan didn’t really care. There were some things that needed to be explained in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
Originally, Su Yan had planned to stay for a while before leaving. After all, she didn’t like commotion. However, there were many people at Xia Jiang’s birthday banquet, and many seniors in the business world also knew her, so there were always guests greeting her. Most of these people were wealthy businessmen from far away places, so they only knew about Xuanwen Group’s Miss Summer, but they didn’t know that Miss Summer was Su Yan.
Su Yan finally had some time to relax. She held a glass of champagne and walked towards the balcony of the banquet hall. There were too many people in the banquet hall, and it was so stuffy that she couldn’t breathe.
At this time of the year, flowers were blooming, but the inside of the house was very cold. When she walked outside the balcony, Su Yan looked out. The night wind blew gently, and it made Su Yan feel energized. It was so lively inside, but it was very quiet here. Only the gentle sound of the wind could be heard. Su Yan’s irritable mood immediately calmed down.
