Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Muli’s Girlfriend (2)_1

"Xiao Family Head, sorry for the interruption," Brown Blair didn’t care at all whether Xiao Muli accepted his apology. His entire act was just for show, for the old folks back home. If he hadn’t stood out tonight and played this scene, who knows how that bunch of fathers and daughters might have involved him upon his return.

In Blair’s eyes, one could see the calculations, all of which Situ Xin noticed. But when these calculations didn’t fall upon her or anyone she cared about, Situ Xin actually became intrigued. An idea started to form in her mind.

Situ Xin was deeply moved by the fact that Xiao Muli had unhesitatingly dissolved the partnership with the Brown Group for her sake. However, as touched as she was, she didn’t want Xiao Muli to be caught by those in the Xiao Family who were eagerly waiting for his downfall, all because of her. Since a while ago, her mind had been incessantly searching for a solution. When she noticed Blair’s calculations towards Brown Kress, a plan took root in her heart.

However, her plan could only remain in her heart until she had investigated thoroughly and had all the information she needed.

As Situ Xin walked into the villa with Xiao Muli’s hand in hers, they caught the gaze of nearly everyone present. Almost all eyes were fixated on these two individuals.

Not until Xiao Muli and Situ Xin entered the villa, leaving no view of their backs, did the people outside begin to stroll in one after another. Eventually, only Brown Kress and his daughter Brown Lya were left behind.

The young men and women who once hovered around Brown Lya glanced at her once and then walked towards the villa, not a single one approached her to offer comfort like a friend would.

"Let’s go, we’re leaving," Brown Kress, although furious with Xiao Muli and Blair, knew he couldn’t stay any longer. If he continued to stay, he would only become the subject of everyone’s amusement.

Brown Kress roughly pushed Brown Lya causing her to stagger almost falling to the ground. Seeing her father’s rage, Lya, frightened, didn’t dare to resist at all. After being pushed, she obediently followed behind him, leaving the villa.

As the host of the PARTY, Brown Kress’s departure meant that Blair, evidently, took over his duties.

Although Xiao Muli’s attitude towards him had not been very pleasant just now, Blair who had managed to get Xiao Muli to agree to attend the PARTY, approached Xiao Muli with an understanding attitude, "Xiao Family Head, I think there are a few people here you would be glad to meet. If you don’t mind, you could come with me."

Xiao Muli’s gaze followed where Blair was looking and saw the very people he wanted to meet tonight. Muli was slightly tempted, but then he hesitated when he saw Situ Xin clinging to his arm.

Xiao Muli knew that Situ Xin would certainly have no interest in the matters they were going to discuss. At this moment, he truly regretted making up an excuse to bring Situ Xin out with him today.

It was Situ Xin, however, who noticed Xiao Muli’s hesitation. She turned her eyes and pointing to the lounge area, said, "Brother Muli, you go attend to your matters. I’m feeling a little hungry, so I’ll grab something to eat and sit over there for a bit. Once you’re done, come find me."

"Xiao Xin, won’t you be bored?" Xiao Muli still hesitated, thinking that she didn’t know anyone around.

"It’s alright, if I get bored, I’ll come look for you."

"Then alright, but don’t wander off. Just stay there and I’ll come to find you as soon as I can, once I’ve sorted things out," Xiao Muli eventually agreed, thinking that meeting these few people now, handling those matters he had on hand, would free up the next few days for him to spend time with Situ Xin and not miss her debut fashion show.

Instead of directly leaving Situ Xin to meet those people with Blair, Xiao Muli accompanied her to select some food she wanted, helped her carry the plate filled with food to the lounge area, and after getting her a drink, only then did he follow Blair to meet those individuals.

Blair who had been closely following Xiao Muli and Situ Xin couldn’t help but inwardly sigh at the importance this girl held in Xiao Muli’s heart. He also cursed his brother and niece for their shortsightedness in offending Situ Xin—they truly got what they deserved.

After Xiao Muli left with Blair, Situ Xin was left picking at the cake on her plate with a small fork thoughtfully. She had initially planned to switch the food on her plate with the contents from her spatial storage while everyone was not paying attention.

However, after observing her surroundings, she noticed many eyes unintentionally fixed on her, making her afraid to be discovered, so she dared not make a move. Yet, ultimately she couldn’t resist, and replaced the juice in her cup with the same colored juice from her spatial storage.

The unintentional glances of those around her, some were due to Situ Xin’s dazzling beauty—naturally, most of these were from the men. Although attracted by her stunning appearance, not a single man dared to approach Situ Xin after the previous event, even with their respectable statuses. They didn’t possess the courage of Xiao Muli, willing to sacrifice his career for the sake of a beauty.

Others were simply curious, intrigued by the brief incident that had occurred earlier.

To these stares, Situ Xin chose to turn a blind eye. She quietly enjoyed her cake and the swapped drink from her space, lost in her own thoughts.

While Situ Xin could choose to ignore the stares from others, the soft murmuring of the people around her registered word for word in her ears.
