Even though it was located in the middle of the bustling city center, it seemed to be isolated from the surroundings. The people in the hall were drinking and drinking, and the various delicacies on the table, as well as the luxurious cars parked in front of the villa entrance, were enough to clearly show the status and status of the host of the banquet.

Beside the outdoor swimming pool in the mansion, a man leisurely drank a mouthful of red wine as he observed everything in the banquet. His aura was so cold that many people who wanted to get close to him did not dare to approach him.

Originally, he disdained participating in banquets like this. He was chatting about something he was not interested in with a group of people he didn't know. Everyone had a fake smile on their faces and he couldn't tell what they looked like under their masks. To him, participating in banquets like this was just a waste of time and life.

However, the host of this banquet was a big client of Xiang Family Group Cooperation. Moreover, the other party had personally come to the company to deliver the invitation letter, if he did not go now, he would not be able to give any face.

It was just that he did not expect that he would receive an unexpected harvest tonight and that he would actually meet Helian Di here. Furthermore, she was acting as Yang Yan's wife, causing doubts to arise in his heart.

Suddenly, Xiang Qicheng looked at the nearby side door, his long and narrow eyes narrowing slightly as he gently swirled the wine in his cup.

Helian Di saw that Yang Yan was chatting happily with the few directors in the circle, and while sitting on the sofa alone, he went out the side door and went to the outdoor swimming pool.

Outside, it was much quieter. Although there were many people holding small parties in the swimming pool, it was still better than having a round of drinks in the main hall.

”What? Isn't this the perfect time for you to get to know the directors?” Why did you run out yourself? ” A familiar voice rang out. When Helian Di turned around, the moment he saw Xiang Qicheng, his expression immediately became ugly.

He was truly like a ghost that never left. Wherever he went, he would follow!

”It has nothing to do with you!” Helian Di frowned as she unconsciously raised her voice. After she finished speaking, she turned around with the intention to quickly leave, but even she did not realize that this was a sign of guilt.

”What is your purpose in approaching Yang Yan?” Xiang Qicheng pulled her wrist, and her tone of voice unconsciously became stern, as the expression on her face became more and more gloomy.

He did not forget the night when Helian Di stood by the side of the bed and raised his blade while Chu Yu was sleeping a year ago in Australia. If it wasn't for the fact that he was careful, he would have experienced the pain of losing Chu Yu again. He wasn't a saint. He wouldn't forgive Helian Di for what happened that time, no matter what happened. He had only been looking for time to take revenge on her.

”What does that have to do with you? ”Let me go …” Afraid that he would attract the attention of the surrounding people, Helian Di slightly struggled free, a look of panic flashing past his eyes, but was concealed very well.

If she knew Xiang Qicheng was here tonight, she wouldn't have come no matter what. The past had left a deep imprint in her life. She did not want to look back, she did not want to look back.

She was now the star Helian Di, Yang Yan's wife, and everything that had happened in the past had nothing to do with her, including all the evil things that she had done.

Xiang Qicheng suddenly let go of her wrist and lit up a cigarette. He looked down at her with a cold expression.
