Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Dinner at the President Mansion (9)

The cocktail that Su Zixi had been drinking seemed to have been taken away by the waiter earlier, and she had been talking to Ning Ruixin for quite a while, so she really couldn’t refuse her favorite blackcurrant.

Thus, she smiled faintly, “Thank you,” and reached for the nearest glass.

Ning Ruixin, with sharp eyes, noticed some marks on the rim of the glass in Su Zixi’s hand—it was unclear if they were from lipstick or nail polish, so she waved her hand, “This glass isn’t clean, let’s get another one.”

Although Su Zixi didn’t understand why, she complied and set that glass down, picking a new one from the middle.

The waiter smiled at her, ready to leave, when Ning Ruixin called out to wait and reached out to rub off the unsightly mark.

“Much better now,” she said with satisfaction.

Su Zixi chuckled, it seemed Ning Ruixin either had OCD or was a germaphobe.

She drained the glass of blackcurrant juice and headed towards the president’s wife.

By chance, a distinguished lady just turned to leave, and Su Zixi hurried her steps.

“Mrs. President, hello,” Su Zixi greeted with a smile, her voice a bit tense as she spoke.

Chu Jinyu, upon hearing her voice, flickered her gaze, exchanging looks with Han Ying, who nodded at her.

“Hello,” Chu Jinyu said with a smile, “it seems I have never met you before.”

Upon hearing the president’s wife’s voice, Su Zixi inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, but the thought was fleeting.

“Mrs. President, please allow me to introduce myself. My surname is Su, and my husband is Mr. He Jingyao,” said Su Zixi, smiling shyly, “I’ve specifically come to apologize to you—I think you might know, a few days ago my husband was fortunate enough to meet the president, but he left midway because he had a prior arrangement with me, which offended the president. Both my husband and I are very sorry…”

Chu Jinyu raised her eyebrows slightly, “Oh? You mean this matter…”

“Yes,” Su Zixi said earnestly, “I hope you and the president can forgive my husband’s impulsiveness. He simply didn’t want to disappoint me and never intended to offend the president. I know you and the president are deeply affectionate, so I thought maybe you could understand…”

“The He Family is here for the new energy project, right?” Chu Jinyu said with a smiling expression, “But apologizing to me won’t do any good, Youlin was indeed very angry.”

Su Zixi quickly replied, “Excuse my presumption, but I thought perhaps you would be willing to convey mine and my husband’s apologies to the president…”

“I’m not willing,” Chu Jinyu said with a smile still on her face.

Su Zixi was momentarily taken aback.

“By the way, the banquet is about to begin, I need to go and get ready. Young Mistress He, please make yourself at home,” Chu Jinyu continued smiling and turned away with Han Ying.

Su Zixi stood there stunned, watching Chu Jinyu’s retreating figure, not expecting such an outcome at all.

Ning Ruixin caught up, curiously asking, “Why did the president’s wife leave after only a few words?”

Su Zixi turned to look at her, her face full of despair, “I… I seem to have offended the president’s wife.”

Usually, even if the president’s wife didn’t intend to relay the message to the president or was sure of the president’s stance, she wouldn’t reject someone so bluntly to their face.

But since the president’s wife didn’t even bother with pleasantries, that could only mean Su Zixi’s behavior had offended her.

What… what should she do now!
