ex-wife she is charming

Chapter 148 Charity Dinner ([-])

Outside the venue, the temperature is very low.

Especially at night, when the cold wind blows.

Xu Zhi wrapped his overcoat tightly and stood against the wall.

Reaching into his pocket, he just took out a pack of ladies' cigarettes and a lighter.

She took out a cigarette from the cigarette box, and was about to bring it to her mouth to light it, when a big hand suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, snatching the cigarette from her hand quickly.

Xu Zhi was taken aback, and quickly raised his head, but he didn't expect to bump into a pair of dark eyes.

Shang Jiming's appearance seemed to be within her expectation.

Xu Zhi looked at him calmly, reached out and snatched the cigarette back from his hand.

"Mr. Shang is so idle, he doesn't even have a cigarette on him, and he still has to run out to grab a cigarette from me."

"Smoking less, it's not good for your health."

The man's voice was calm and steady.

Regardless of her objection, he snatched the cigarette case and lighter from her hand without saying a word, and put the cigarette in his hand back into the cigarette case smoothly while speaking, and took it back into his pocket.

Xu Zhi just watched his things go into his pockets, even if he wanted to grab them back, it was too late.

For a moment, unexplained irritability came to my heart.

She raised her impatient little face, and frowned softly, "Shang Jiming, are you too busy? If you are really busy, why don't you go inside to see if there are any interesting items, and take a picture or two to show your love to the children in the mountain area. Don't mess with your leisure time here."

After Xu Zhi finished speaking, he took a step forward, wishing he could snatch the things in his pockets.

But this man was very cunning, he deliberately took two steps back when she approached.

It was dark and the road was slippery. Xu Zhi was wearing high-heeled shoes. Heel accidentally stepped on a pebble, and his body fell forward uncontrollably.

"careful!"

Almost subconsciously, Shang Jiming nervously stretched out his arms around her slender waist.

Holding the woman firmly in his arms.

Xu Zhi's cheek was pressed against his chest.

When she felt the buttons on his chest pressing her, the woman subconsciously pushed the person on her chest away heavily, with a look of fear on her face, she backed away again and again, as if she had touched something she couldn't avoid.

Her actions fell into Shang Jiming's eyes. Although the man was silent, his handsome face still darkened a little because of her actions.

"Thank you!" Seeing his expression, Xu Zhi felt that he might have been too excited and exaggerated just now, so he endured his emotions and thanked him.

But when she turned her head, she still put on a stinky face and a cold attitude, and stretched out her hand to him.

"But should you return the things to me? It's all mine."

Shang Jiming frowned slightly, and instead of answering her question directly, he answered irrelevantly, "It's cold outside, go back inside, don't freeze."

After Shang Jiming finished speaking, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to help her dress up.

But Xu Zhi, who was quick-witted and quick-witted, had stepped back one step ahead of him, pressed back against the wall, and refused his approach and contact with his actions.

Xu Zhi didn't say anything, just looked at him with indifferent eyes, remained motionless, and didn't care about his words at all.

Shang Jiming secretly sighed in his heart, and then cursed himself as 'useless'.

The phone in his pocket rang suddenly, breaking the atmosphere of silence between the two of them.

Shang Jiming took out his mobile phone, and the bright screen was completely displayed in front of the two of them.

Xu Zhi couldn't control it for a moment, glanced at his mobile phone screen from the corner of his eye, then turned his head calmly without saying anything, and looked away.

It's just that the expression on the little face was tense, and it was much more serious than before visible to the naked eye.

Shang Jiming didn't notice the change in Xu Zhi's face. After scanning the notes on the screen, he hung up the phone without saying a word, and put it back in his pocket.

When the ringing stopped, Xu Zhi looked at him in surprise.

But it was just a glance, and then he pretended nothing happened, gathered the clothes on his shoulders, stood up straight, and walked around him.

"where to?"

Shang asked clearly.

But Xu Zhi didn't pay attention to him, but walked straight into the venue.

Shang Jiming still stood at the same spot, watching her back that was getting further and further away, silently clenched his fists with the hands that fell beside her, and then followed her back to the venue without asking any further questions.

The heating was turned on in the venue, and as soon as Xu Zhi entered, he took off his coat and handed it to the waiter inside for safekeeping.

Then when Shang Jiming was about to catch up, he turned a corner at the intersection ahead and headed towards the bathroom.

Seeing this, Shang Jiming stopped.

It's really impolite to follow up.

……

In the corner not far away, Zheng Qi had a clear look at the two people who came in from the door one after the other.

The hand that fell on the side tightly grabbed the hem of his skirt.

She came to the auction today with her mother.

They had noticed Xu Zhi and Zhou Shiyue since they appeared, but neither of them approached her to make friends with her. After all, since Xu Zhi and Xu You didn't go home for the New Year, Zheng Yuanhao hated them. She and her own mother would not rush to get close to someone they didn't like.

It's just that as soon as she saw her walking with Zhou Shiyue, she became extremely jealous. Why is this Xu Zhi surrounded by men everywhere.

Before it was Shang Jiming, but now Zhou Shiyue.

Obviously, she, a divorced woman, doesn't know what's so good about letting two such outstanding men surround her alone.

Zheng Qi felt unwilling.

Seeing Shang Jiming walking with her now, he obviously couldn't see how much he loved her before, but now that he is divorced, he still looks like he must have her.

Zheng Qi was crazy with envy.

But right now she can't do anything except stand in the corner silently peeping at the two people in front of her, jealous.

……

Seeing that he finally got rid of him, Xu Zhi heaved a sigh of relief and walked into the bathroom.

After she came out, after washing her hands and arranging her hair and makeup, when she left the bathroom and walked towards the venue, she happened to meet Pei Linqi in the corridor.

When Xu Zhi met him, he was leaning against the wall of the corridor smoking a cigarette. The smoke was so lingering that it was difficult to see the expression on his face at this moment.

The thumping sound of the high heels touching the tiles on the floor attracted Pei Linqi's attention.

The man looked sideways, just in time to meet Xu Zhi's gentle and smiling gaze.

"Coincidentally, you are here."

Seeing this, Pei Linqi threw away the cigarette in his hand without saying a word.

"Yes."

Xu Zhi couldn't say why, but always felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable layer of embarrassment between the two of them.

She smiled and nodded in Pei Linqi's direction, "I'll go in first."

"Wait!" Pei Linqi stopped him.

The leg that Xu Zhi stepped forward silently retracted, his hands relaxed in front of him, gently lifting the small bag in front of him.

"What's wrong?"

"Don't take to heart what my aunt said that day."

Xu Zhi was stunned for two seconds.

Then he remembered what Pei Linqi said.

She smiled relaxedly, as if she didn't take things to heart at all.

"It's okay, if you don't tell me, I've almost forgotten about it."

"I know she said bad things to you that day, but that's because the elders cared too much about me. They always felt that I couldn't marry a good girl, so they hurriedly told me about it. If she said something serious to you before, please don't take it to heart."

Pei Linqi's apology was too solemn.

On the contrary, it made Xu Zhi feel uncomfortable.

She smiled indifferently, "I really don't take it to heart, Mr. Pei is too worried."

"Look, I'm already calling me Mr. Pei, but I haven't taken it to heart yet."

The man opened his mouth helplessly.

Xu Zhi lowered his eyes, "My friend is still waiting for me..."

"Lin Qi? Who are you talking to?"
