Step aside! My Demon CEO

Chapter 12 To Meet His Predecessor at a Banquet

She was so beautiful and focused, just like a nightmare in the past, reminding her of everything that had happened in the past. She was still more used to her current self, wearing the most ordinary clothes, so ordinary that she could drown in the crowd.

She was a natural beauty. Even if she did not make any decorations, she was also beautiful and refined. Now, she could only dress up a little, and no one could take her eyes off her.

Lu Xiujie's eyes never left her body. He nodded and smiled, "I'm very satisfied."

Xia Nuan changed back into her clothes. The shop assistant had already packed the dress, and Lu Xiujie had already paid the bill.

Lu Xiujie saw that her performance had always been flat, neither servile nor haughty. It was not until she got into the car that she asked, "Do I need to pay attention to anything at the banquet tomorrow night?"

After all, this was her job, and she didn't want to lose her job because of any carelessness.

Lu Xiujie carefully fastened her seat belt and a warm breath spread on her face. Her heart beat a little faster in an instant, and the car looked small and stuffy.

He only smiled and replied, "I'm meeting the president of the Ji Group tomorrow night. I asked you to do the report. You can give it to me tomorrow morning."

There was a slight ripple in Xia Nuan's eyes. He didn't expect the world to be so small. I still meet people I hate.

Lu Xiujie, he already knew her relationship with Ji Mingze. Wasn't he worried that she would ruin the whole party?

The car drove her all the way to the door. Xia nuan thanked her and walked to the dormitory. The night wind was still cold. Lu Xiujie had watched her go upstairs until the lights of one of the houses lit up.

The next day, Lu Xiujie received a report from Xia Nuan, which included all the information about the Ji Group and everything about Ji Mingze. Xia Nuan did not hold back.

Lu Xiujie was obviously satisfied with the report. His eyes were fixed on Xia Nuan's face. "Assistant xia, I have to remind you that no matter how close you are to Boss Ji, it won't affect the party tonight. Understand?"

Xia Nuan nodded. "I understand."

She said it was a breeze. She was not his ex-wife. How many waves could she cause? In the past, he always regretted why he didn't get rid of him with a single knife. Now that he thought about it, that idea was really childish and ridiculous.

Ji Mingze, I can't hurt her anymore. She wouldn't care.

"That's good." A glint of appreciation flashed across Lu Xiujie's lips.

At night, the banquet was about to begin.

This time, ji mingze wanted to talk to Lu Xiujie about the establishment of the base through the financial exchange meeting. Some groups in North Coast had several casual meetings every month, and no matter who organized them, everyone would participate in them at the same time.

Even if there was nothing new, he could always get in touch with his feelings and make a few deals.

In front of the yuxuan hotel today.

A black knight xv stopped in front of the door. A man and a woman got out of the car. The man was handsome in spirit. He was dressed in a black exquisite suit, cut properly, stood upright, and reached out for the female companion to put her hand on his arm. The woman's long hair was curled up, and her palm-sized face was painted with light makeup, revealing a bright and sexy back. The dress was long and slightly mopped the floor. The walk was not smooth, but it was stunning.

These two people were so eye-catching that they attracted a lot of attention since their arrival.

Xia Nuan looked at the crowded banquet hall with glasses and glasses. There was an inexplicable nervousness. She took a breath and pretended to be careful. The man next to her probably knew that she was nervous and took a glass of red wine from the waiter next to her and handed it to her.

"French red wine, have some."

Xia Nuan took it with a smile. She took a small sip and then put it down.

She observed the people around her and met a few familiar faces. In the past, when she took over the Xia Family business, she had more or less met some people in the circle. After marrying Ji Mingze, Ji Mingze had brought her out to this kind of banquet many times, so it might not be very quiet tonight.

She wanted to hide, but maybe she couldn't.

"Niece Xia?"

Someone shouted behind her. Xia Nuan turned around. It was boss li. He had some business dealings with the Xia Family in the past.

Xia Nuan looked up and smiled. This address was awkward for her, and her heart felt as if it had been kicked by something.

It was not that president li did not know that she had broken off from Xia Peijiang's father-son relationship, and that she had nothing to do with the Xia Family.

"Uncle li, you can call me Xia Nuan." Xia Nuan replied gracefully.

Back then, when she took over the Xia Family business, her achievements were obvious to everyone. Many seniors in the circle had asserted that she would be better than the blue. But then those things happened.

President li, who was also used to these situations, still had a smile on his face and was not unhappy at all. He asked, "Where are you now? Why don't you come to uncle li's company to help?"

Only then did he realize that the man next to Xia Nuan, Lu Xiujie, had handed over his business card.

Armed police force, major general, Lu Xiujie.

This business card was different from the one he handed to Xia Nuan the other day.

It turned out to be the Lu Family... Although president li had no contact with Lu Xiujie, he was still clear about his father, Lu Tianloong, and knew that he had a son in the army.

She quickly reached out her hand, "So it's Major General Lu. It's rude." Lu Xiujie shook hands with him politely.

Lu Xiujie did not forget to introduce Xia Nuan as his assistant. President li smiled meaningfully, exchanged a few words, and left.

In the crowd, Xia Nuan found two familiar figures.

Xia Meisi held Ji Mingze's arm affectionately, and the smile on his lips was sweet. He greeted and circled the people in the past, as if he was used to being Mrs. Ji.

Ji Mingze pursed his lips and smiled faintly.

Soon, he found Xia Nuan, who was looking at her. Their eyes met and they collided in the air. Xia Nuan felt his back stiffen.

Xia Nuan pretended to be natural and turned away. He looked up at lu xiujie with a charming smile and said something. It wasn't that Lu Xiujie didn't see through her tricks, didn't expose them, and cooperated very well.

She couldn't let her assistant lose face in front of her ex-husband.

No way.

Xia Meisi followed Ji Mingze's gaze and naturally found Xia Nuan's existence. Xia Nuan, why is she here? A trace of doubt flashed across his dark eyes.

But by this time, Xia Nuan had already walked away from her male companion. Xia Meisi only saw Lu Xiujie's side face. She could only think of Xia Nuan as a means to hook up with rich people so quickly.

Ji Mingze watched Xia Nuan walk away. On his cold face, his eyes were as cold as ice that had not melted for thousands of years. Xia Meisi looked at him strangely.

He gently took his hand and shouted, "Mingze, what are you looking at?"

Ji Mingze looked down at her, smiled gently, and then drank up the red wine in his hand. "Yujia should be here too. Go find her. I'll talk to someone about work."

Xia Meisi nodded sensibly.

She was wearing a lavender dress today, sexy and enchanting. The pair of ten-centimeter high heels under her feet made a noise as she walked. Soon, xia yujia found her in the crowd.

A man with a body shouldn't have worn high heels, but as Madam Ji, she couldn't embarrass Ji Mingze. Xia Meisi just wanted to declare her sovereignty over Madam Ji at any time and didn't want any yingying yanyan to approach Ji Mingze. Besides... She had a very important thing to do today.

She caressed her stomach and remembered what the doctor said the other day. Because the mother was too weak, the child should not be able to keep it. It was best to abort it as soon as possible, or the adults would be in danger. But this was her first child. How could god be so cruel?

"I just saw Xia Nuan." There was a trace of hatred in xia meisi's eyes, and her eyes were distant.

Xia yujia glanced around the crowd and did not see Lu Xiujie. He knew that Lu Xiujie was going to take her to this banquet, so he especially told his sister about it and advised her not to come.

But Xia Meisi didn't care and insisted.

As if her heart had been lifted up, Xia Yujia was not in a better mood than xia meisi.

"Sis, you don't know. Xia Nuan is really good. He just came out a few days ago and now he's hooked up with our Major General Lu." Xia Yujia clenched the goblet in his hand with five fingers, his fingers turning white.

No wonder, the side face of the man looked familiar just now. It turned out that he was Yujia's secret crush on Lu Xiujie.

Xia Meisi comforted her. "A man is just greedy for something new. She doesn't have the ability to compete with you."

Xia Yujia was not bad looking and had a good family background. She didn't know how many men surrounded her in the army, but Lu Xiujie didn't know how to flirt at all.
