Chapter 519: Chapter 519 Come on, Hurt Each Other (1)_1

With a "swoosh" sound indicating that her text message was sent, Xia Wan’an finally put away her phone. She lifted her head and swept her gaze towards the direction where Chi Mu was standing.

Upon meeting Xia Wan’an’s gaze, Chi Mu showed a small smirk, her eyes filled with sarcasm. Then, as though she hadn’t noticed Xia Wan’an, she turned her head and began chatting with her well-dressed companions. She carried herself with an arrogant grace, every now and then lifting her glass for a sip of wine.

Looking at Chi Mu behaving this way, Xia Wan’an slightly lowered her eyelids, concealing the cold glint in her eyes.

Yet her face still maintained a sweet and untroubled smile, as if she hadn’t taken Chi Mu’s petty ploys to heart.

Because it took too long to go upstairs, Xia Wan’an was worried that if the person bringing her clothes arrived, multiple phone calls and identity verification by the staff would delay things, so she decided to wait in the lobby.

During this time, guests continued to arrive, taking out their invitations and going through security check with the help of the guards to enter the venue.

The closer it got to eight o’clock, the more guests arrived. With only fifteen minutes left before the appreciation event’s start, Xia Wan’an couldn’t help but grow somewhat anxious.

Although she still looked calm on the surface, her gaze uncontrollably drifted towards the rotating entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel.

"Oh? Isn’t that Miss Xia?" A woman’s voice sounded suddenly from behind her. While it seemed like a familiar greeting, her tone was full of schadenfreude.

Xia Wan’an furrowed her brows, recognizing the voice as Chi Mu’s. She ignored it and instead checked the time on her phone.

It was already 7:46...

Chi Mu seemed unfazed by Xia Wan’an’s ignorance and with a lift of her skirt, she walked around to Xia Wan’an’s front. She looked at the large wine stain on Xia Wan’an’s dress, her face full of sympathy, "Miss Xia, how did your dress get stained? But Miss Xia, you’ve really been careless, how could you not be more careful?"

Originally, the guests that arrived didn’t pay much attention to Xia Wan’an. But after Chi Mu’s words, many people gave her sidelong glances.

Seeing everyone’s attention on Xia Wan’an, Chi Mu covered her mouth pretentiously to give the illusion of a slip of the tongue, "I’m sorry, Miss Xia. I’m so used to calling you Miss Xia. I should’ve called you Mrs. Han... the wife of the general manager of the Han Family... Does Han Jingnian not usually take you to these kinds of banquets? Is that why such a mistake occurred this time, Miss Xia... oh no, Mrs. Han, you must be more careful from now on..."

Xia Wan’an glanced at Chi Mu but remained silent.

Of course, she knew that Chi Mu was not just showing off. Her words were clearly a way to tell everyone around that even though she, Xia Wan’an, had married Han Jingnian and become Mrs. Han, she was still not suitable for a high social status, even something as small as choosing the right clothes was a problem for her.

Because of Chi Mu’s words, some people watched the drama unfold, and some people kept glancing back at Xia Wan’an while moving towards the venue.

Xia Wan’an pursed her lips to maintain composure and checked the time again.

It was already 7:49... another eleven minutes until it starts...

Noticing Xia Wan’an looking at her phone, Chi Mu also glimpsed at the time, then confidently stepped forward: "You, trying to compete with me? You can’t even enter this venue, on what basis can you compete with me?"
