Chapter 350 - 351: Welcoming Home with a Party
Xia Weiwei was livid.
If her current state was captured on film, her entire image would be ruined.
She grabbed Xia Yangyang’s arm, her speech blurred: “Sister… I was wrong…” But Xia Yangyang ignored her, picked up her room key, grabbed her luggage, and went up to her room.
Xia Weiwei could only put on a facemask and planned to go to the hospital.
Passing by the group of reporters, Xia Weiwei was terrified of having her picture taken.
But to her surprise, these reporters didn’t even spare her a glance.
All of their cameras were focused on Xia Yangyang’s retreating figure.
Xia Weiwei was even more furious.
Xia Yangyang was in a foul mood.
Indeed, she was angered by Xia Weiwei’s words.
Xia Weiwei was always harsh with her words, but Xia Yangyang never bothered to argue with her.
But when it came to their mother, Xia Yangyang couldn’t hold back any longer. To this day, Xia Yangyang still couldn’t accept what their mother had done in the past.
The old news seemed to declare the truth of the past.
Whenever Xia Yangyang thought about it, she would feel insurmountable pain.
Xia Yangyang returned to her room.
After a while, she heard a knock on the door.
Xia Yangyang went to open the door.
She saw Shen Manbing standing at the door.
Xia Yangyang hoarsely called out: “Sister Bingbing.”
Shen Manbing entered, noticing Xia Yangyang’s depressed state: “What’s wrong?”
There were many things that Xia Yangyang didn’t know how to begin with.
Shen Manbing didn’t probe further.
She just helped Xia Yangyang pick out clothes: “Let’s go. I’ll take you out to clear your mind. I have a few friends who are throwing me a welcome back party tonight. Come with me.”
Xia Yangyang was in no mood.
“I’d rather not. I have to start shooting tomorrow. I’ll stay in the hotel and read the script.”
“In this gloomy mood, I don’t think you will be able to concentrate on the script. Let’s go. You know a couple of them. Going out might make you feel better.”
Xia Yangyang couldn’t insist on her own way in the end with Shen Manbing.
She finally left with Shen Manbing.
They snuck out of the hotel.
Shen Manbing also didn’t bring along any bodyguards.
Xia Yangyang had no idea where Shen Manbing was leading her to.
It turned out to be a hidden bar.
The bar was quite concealed, in a small alley. If you were not a regular, you would never know that the entrance was to a bar.
But once you entered, the interior was like a different world.
The place was surprisingly spacious and had a luxurious punk vibe. Bunny girls were moving about with trays of drinks.
There was also a band performing on the stage.
Upon closer inspection, they were internet celebrities popular on the web.
Xia Yangyang followed Shen Manbing into a private room.
The room was large and filled with lively people.
Some were singing, and others were playing cards. It was quite the scene.
When Xia Yangyang and Shen Manbing appeared at the entrance, everyone was shocked.
Because everyone knew that Shen Manbing and Gu Qichen were involved.
And wasn’t the young girl in front of them Gu Qichen’s young wife?
The two of them arriving together was simply surreal.
Could it be that Shen Manbing deliberately brought the young sister here for them to tease?
Indeed, Xia Yangyang saw familiar faces in the room.
Like Xue Shaotang, whom she had met before at Mu Liancheng’s birthday party.
Xue Shaotang’s hometown was Sea City.
Xue Shaotang was also taken aback at the sight of the two women.
It was only supposed to be a party honoring Shen Manbing. What was the meaning of bringing this young girl here?
Last time at Liancheng’s birthday, these two women had staged a century-old battle for the husband, nearly scaring everyone to death.
What on earth was going on today?
What surprised Xue Shaotang even more was that Shen Manbing actually walked in hand-in-hand with Xia Yangyang.
She even went as far as to introduce Xia Yangyang one by one to her well-known friends, playwrights, and writers in the circle.
These were the contacts that Shen Manbing had accumulated over the years. Why would she introduce them to this young girl?
