Therefore, Xia Qi was not surprised that the wedding reception was held in such a top-notch hotel today.

After entering the hotel with Wu Xing'er and Meng Wei, Xia Qi saw Li Hua standing with a man in groom's clothing, welcoming the guests.

Seeing Xia Qi coming, Li Hua said enthusiastically, "Xia Qi, long time no see."

"Yeah, long time no see. I wish you a happy wedding." Xia Qi said, sending a red envelope she had wrapped early in the morning.

Because her income is not high, Xia Qi paid 1,000, which is already a lot of money for her. She can't let the person who invited her to a wedding banquet still lose money. At least, she can eat it by herself.

Pay the bill.

"Thank you." Li Hua said, and just as he was about to accept the red envelope, a voice suddenly sounded from beside him.

"Hey, isn't this Xia Qi? Why is the red envelope so thin? There must be a check in it."

Xia Qi turned around and saw that the person speaking was a woman with heavy makeup and gorgeous clothes.

The other party took the red envelope from her hand, squeezed it and said, "There seems to be more than one. It shouldn't be a check, but if it is money, it is too little. Isn't Jun Jinyan very rich? Probably not.

As for you, just give me such a thin red envelope!" the woman said with a mocking look.

Li Hua frowned and said, "Dai Mingming, please stop saying a few words."

"That's it, did I say something wrong?" the woman named Dai Mingming raised her eyebrows.

Wu Xing'er said from the side, "Obviously, Xia Qidu and Jun Jinyan have separated a long time ago. It's not like you haven't seen that the newspapers are full of news about Jun Jinyan and Mei Xinyi."

On the surface, Wu Xing'er was helping Xia Qi speak, but the feeling that there was something in her words was clearly pointing out that the Xia Qi now is no longer the same Xia Qi then.

Dai Mingming chuckled, "Oh, why do you think my memory is so bad? Why did I forget that Jun Jinyan is not with Xia Qi now? It's no wonder that Xia Qi's red envelope will only be this small."

With that said, Dai Mingming pretended to be embarrassed again and stuffed the red envelope back into Xia Qi's hand, "Oh, Xia Qi, I'm so sorry. Since you are not with Jun Jinyan, I guess you are now earning

It's not too high, I think Li Hua won't mind no matter how many red envelopes you give." When speaking, Dai Mingming's voice was drawn out, deliberately so that everyone around him could hear it.

Many of the guests invited by Li Hua today were high school classmates. Naturally, they all recognized Xia Qi. At this moment, when Dai Mingming said this, many people looked at Xia Qi with disdain and gloating.

.

Li Hua quickly said to Dai Mingming, "Obviously, Xia Qi is my guest today, wouldn't you say a few words less?"

"Okay, I won't say it, I won't say it anymore!" After saying that, Dai Mingming glanced at Xia Qi provocatively, twisted his waist and walked into the banquet hall.

Li Hua said to Xia Qi apologetically, "It's obvious that what I said was a little inappropriate, so don't take it to heart."

Xia Qi shook her head, "It doesn't matter. Whether I am with Jun Jinyan or not is my own business and has nothing to do with anyone else. This red envelope is just a small thought from me. Jinyan has something to do in City B today and may not be able to come."

"

Li Hua was stunned, and a burst of panic suddenly arose in his heart, Jin Yan? Did the Jin Yan mentioned by Xia Qi just now refer to Jun Jin Yan?!

If so, then it means that Xia Qi has not broken up with Jun Jinyan at all, and they are still together?! If this is really the case, then what happened to the news about Jun Jinyan and Mei Xinyi?

Suddenly, many doubts flashed through Li Hua's mind.

Unfortunately, before she could ask in detail, Wu Xing'er chatted with her former classmates for a few words, then came over again, pulled Xia Qi and said, "Li Hua, Xia Qi and I will go in first."

Li Hua turned to look at the backs of Wu Xing'er and Xia Qi, and suddenly felt a funny feeling. She now somewhat understood that Wu Xing'er insisted that she invite Xia Qi to the wedding, probably just to ridicule Xia Qi. After all, she used to do that in school

A high-ranking, princess-like existence suddenly became Cinderella. I am afraid that many people who were envious and jealous of Xia Qi in the past would want to step on her.

But what would these people look like if they found out that the person they wanted to ridicule and crush was actually still a princess?

Li Hua said to the groom, "In a moment, ask dad to send some people to watch out for Xia Qi and don't cause trouble." If someone really makes trouble for Xia Qi today, I'm afraid she won't be able to get away with it. By then,

When Jun Jinyan came to her door, she was probably the first one to suffer.

The groom raised his eyebrows and said, "The woman named Xia Qi just now is the woman you mentioned before who was with the third young master of the Jun family?"

"But no, some people thought that Cinderella and the prince had broken up, so they brought them here specially to watch a good show. But who knew that he was the one watching the show?" Li Hua said with a smile, weighing the red envelope in his hand, "This

The red envelopes are not cheap. When the lottery comes, let Xia Qi win the citrine necklace."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." The groom had no objection.

In the banquet hall, Xia Qi took a rough look at the entire hall, and there were probably about a hundred tables. According to Wu Xing'er, Li Hua's father is now the deputy mayor of Z City, and Li Hua's husband is a local

A well-known real estate developer works on both sides, has many business contacts, and has many friendships.

There are only about 100 tables, which is actually quite small.

Xia Qi was pulled by Wu Xing'er to sit down at one of the tables. The tables nearby were all Li Hua's high school classmates, and naturally they were also Xia Qi's classmates.

At the table with Xia Qi, in addition to Wu Xing'er and Meng Wei, there were also Dai Mingming and several boys from Xia Qi's high school class. Meng Wei obviously knew these men, and they chatted casually with each other.

Some stocks, development investment, finance and other topics.

These men were stunned for a moment after seeing Xia Qi, and then said hello.

Xia Qi replied politely. To be honest, for these men, although they were in the same class at first, because of Jun Jinyan's overbearing possessiveness, Xia Qi had very little communication with her classmates. Even the girls

Not many people dared to talk to her, let alone boys.

When the banquet started, the topic somehow turned around to Xia Qi. Suddenly someone said, "Hey, Ma Lei, didn't you have several bones broken by Jun Jinyan because of Xia Qi?

Hospital!"

The man named Ma Lei is now Dai Mingming's boyfriend. From the conversation just now, Xia Qi knew that Ma Lei is now a minor official in the government department, and is covered by his father. His current position is just a stepping stone.

, and it went up all the way in a few years.

Ma Lei smiled, with a fairly handsome face, but with a kind of bloating caused by drinking and sex, "But, it seems that I only said a few words to Xia Qi at the beginning, and saw that Xia Qi was about to fall down.

It was just a hug when I was there, but who knew Jun Jinyan... Tsk, tsk, how cruel he is!"

Dai Mingming smiled falsely at the side, "Who asked you to provoke Xia Qi? At that time, she was Jun Jinyan's treasure." The implication was that she is not now.

A few tables next to me, when I heard this, someone whispered in a not too quiet voice, "What's the use of my baby? I haven't been kicked away now!"

"I knew that Xia Qi and Jun Jinyan wouldn't last long. What kind of family is the Jun family? How can ordinary people compare to it?"

"Jun Jinyan only had a temporary interest in Xia Qi when he was young. When he gets older and has seen more, will he still like Xia Qi?"

"Xia Qi is really pitiful. Without Jun Jinyan's protection, she is actually nothing."

"You can tell just by looking at those clothes, they are just cheap street stall goods."

Every sentence of sarcasm seemed to be deliberately addressed to Xia Qi. Wu Xing'er said from the side, "Xia Qi, don't mind it. In fact, everyone just said what they have to say." Of course, Wu Xing'er's heart was filled with excitement.

She was so happy that she insisted on bringing Xia Qi to attend Li Hua's wedding, but that was all.

"Xing'er, please tell Li Hua that I have something else to do and I'll leave first." Xia Qi stood up and said, since the conversation was not speculative, there seemed to be no need to stay any longer. Anyway, she had already attended the wedding.

"Hey, we should wait until Li Hua comes over to propose a toast before leaving." Wu Xing'er hurriedly pulled Xia Qi and said.

"No, I have to go to the hospital to take care of my mother." Xia Qi said, picked up her purse and walked out of the banquet hall.

Meng Wei smiled at his wife beside him, "Are you satisfied now?"

Wu Xing'er chuckled, "I'm not too satisfied, but I can barely accept it."

Ma Lei stared at Xia Qi's back thoughtfully, and after a moment, he got up and followed him.

————

Xia Qi walked to the elevator entrance and was waiting for the elevator. Ma Lei chased after her, "Xia Qi, you didn't even chat for a few words and just left like this?"

Xia Qi replied, "I don't think we need to talk about anything." She is not an idiot. Even if she didn't understand some people's intentions at first, she now understands them.

"It seems that you haven't been doing well these past few years without Jun Jinyan by your side." Ma Lei looked at Xia Qi with a smile on his face, "How about it, do you want to make some extra money?"

The way the other party looked at her and his smile made Xia Qi feel extremely uncomfortable, "No, I'm not interested."

Xia Qi replied, it happened that the elevator door opened, Xia Qi walked into the elevator and pressed the first floor button. Just as the elevator door was about to close, Ma Lei quickly squeezed in first.

The elevator door closed, and she and he were the only two people in the elevator.

Ma Lei suddenly approached Xia Qi and said, with a hint of alcohol in his mouth, "How about you sleep with me for one night and I will give you five thousand. Of course, if I am satisfied with you, I will give you more or support you."
