Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 350
Chapter 350 Goodbye, Love Rivals
After Tang Jin Chen hurriedly solved the problem, he saw An Zi Xi anxiously explaining to the security guard, not to mention how cute he was. As expected, the security guard was scared out of his way the moment he appeared.
‘”I was almost kicked out as an idle person. Still laughing,” An Zixi complained. He reached out and grabbed Tang Jin Chen’s arm, then gracefully lifted his skirt and entered the innermost door. He ignored the strange gazes of others and could only smile when meeting people.
“You have so many families.” An Zixi muttered softly.
At twelve o’clock, the crowd gathered in the main hall, where the birthday party was held. There was another person who walked around the door for a long time, but he didn’t see Tang Jin Chen, and that person was really Li Qing. Beautiful music rang out. Li Qing wore a black hollow dress that was extremely eye-catching. Her appearance was not inferior to that of today’s female An Zixi. In order to attract more attention, she specially chose the most eye-catching place.
Seeing the person at hand when he appeared, Li Qing felt a little disappointed in her heart. If she gave them a chance to meet each other alone, he thought that Tang Jin Chen might not be so heartless. But why was it that woman An Zixi?
The first couple of guests of the day appeared very quickly, Han Yeming was neatly dressed in a black suit. Long silhouette stood on the stage exceptionally dazzling. His gaze was deep, the corner of his mouth raised slightly, and he maintained a faint smile. Tang Yuxin, who was standing at the side, looked petite and charming. She was also wearing a white dress, her hair was tied up in a bun, her big eyes were melon seeds, and her smiling joy was in stark contrast to Li Qing’s bitter face.
Immediately after was the protagonist of today! An Zixi stayed by Tang Jin Chen’s side. Her eyes were sour from the bright lights and she was wearing shallow high heels. Because she was pregnant, Tang Jin Chen was very opposed to her wearing high heels. However, An Zi Xi’s height was not too tall. In order to stand together and not appear so abrupt, she took the initiative to secretly wear a pair of shallow high heels.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Tang Jin Chen and the woman beside him. Tang Jin Chen was dressed in a neat black suit, The white shirt, blue tie, and raised chin were like carvings. The edges and corners of his face were clear, and his slender eyes had a straight nose bridge. This Tang Jin Chen was undoubtedly the most eye-catching man in the crowd, especially with his innate king demeanor. Everyone present held their breath. The women beside him were the focus of everyone’s attention.
When they appeared at the scene hand in hand, they immediately caused the crowd to boil. This scene looked so beautiful to others, but to Li Qing, it was simply a sharp blade stabbed into her heart.
Who would have thought that Tang Jin Chen, who rarely had female scandals and was even suspected of having a habit of breaking sleeves, would bring a woman over at the birthday party. This woman was obedient. She wore a silver off-the-shoulder dress that perfectly outlined her exquisite curves. There was a bow knot on her stomach, so she couldn’t see any slight bulges. This was a dress that Tang Jin Chen had specially found the world’s top fashion designer to create for An Zi Xi.
An Zixi could only hold her head high and bear everyone’s attention when faced with this gaze. She held Tang Jin Chen’s hand tightly, and if she looked carefully, she would find that An Zi Xi’s forehead was already covered in cold sweat.

“Relax, don’t be nervous.” He whispered in her ear. Everyone sighed. This pair was obviously the focus of this banquet. Although that woman’s appearance was not bad and her apricot-eyed, willow-browed, cherry-like mouth was very delicate, it was obvious that she was not feminine enough with those women who had taken the initiative to throw themselves at Tang Jin Chen.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to my birthday party. This is my partner today, Miss An.” Tang Jin Chen’s introduction was well-behaved, and his voice was magnetic and loud, echoing throughout the hall. This was the exclusive banquet hall of the Tang Family, located on the top floor of the Tang Family villa.
An Zixi couldn’t help but look around. Although it couldn’t be said to be brilliant, the decoration was very luxurious and magnificent. It was like a palace that she saw on TV. It was filled with a sense of modernity that was a combination of fashion and retro. It was the first time she came to this kind of place to say that surprise was fake, but she still tried her best to conceal the joy in her heart.
Suddenly, An Zixi caught a hostile gaze from the crowd. An Zixi stared at Li Qing and said,
It was actually Li Qing. It turned out that Li Qing also pulled her. Li Qing’s gaze was filled with hostility and hatred. An Zixi could only awkwardly turn around and not look at her anymore. On such an occasion, it was inevitable that jealousy would overflow among women. She did not want to affect her current mood because of these things.
“This lady and Mr. Tang are a perfect match.” A woman suddenly said with a hint of teasing. “I always thought that Mr. Tang liked sexy and enchanting women. It seems that he liked this kind of freshness.” The ridicule in his words was obvious, especially the tone of the speech. Although it sounded very ordinary, An Zixi’s sensitive nerves still caught a sour taste from it.
She calmed down and gently pinched Tang Jin Chen with her finger. She meant for Tang Jin Chen to quickly reply. Tang Jin Chen smiled and answered politely, “Thank you, I like simple and beautiful women. So I won’t consider thanking you for this.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone started to sigh. This Tang Jin Chen really protected this woman.
“An Zixi, you and Tang Jin Chen look really good together.” The next person to speak was Li Qing. A few days ago, there was a problem between Li Qing’s company and Tang Jin Chen, but now, it still appeared at Tang Jin Chen’s birthday party. Then, she looked at An Zixi provocatively. “Did Miss An cry before she came here? Your eyes seem to be a little red. Sorry, I’m very good at discovering details, and your eye makeup seems to be a little dazzling.”
An Zixi was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly reached out to touch his eyes, looking somewhat embarrassed. He didn’t know that she was doing it on purpose. An Zixi’s face didn’t show any signs of what she had said.
Laughing heartily, An Zixi put down his hand awkwardly. Only then did he know that he had been tricked by Li Qing. Li Qing continued, “It’s just a joke with Miss An. There’s no need to be so serious. However, Manager Tang actually brought you here, which is indeed beyond my expectations.”
“Miss Li Qing, just take care of yourself. There’s no need to tear down the stairs. I’m afraid very few men like this kind of poisonous-tongued woman.” An Zixi was furious. He raised his chin and returned to her. Originally, he was very nervous when he got here. Li Qing still wanted her to make a fool of herself. An Zixi could not swallow this breath. Since she had already made a fool of herself, she might as well make a fool of herself again.
The scene was originally lively. With the arrival of Tang Jin Chen and An Zi Xi, it was cold to the point of freezing. An Zi Xi’s words made Li Qing anxious. It was indeed beyond Li Qing’s imagination. In a few days, An Zi Xi had actually become so eloquent.
“Oh, yes, Miss An is right. Why should I ask for trouble from myself?” Li Qing maintained her high and mighty attitude, and her voice was as ear-piercing as a sharp sword.
An Zixi looked at Li Qing. She wore a sexy black V-neck gown, revealing her career line. Her aura was far greater than her own. At this time, she did not forget to compare battles between men and women. Sure enough, only women could do it.
Li Qing’s dress today was indeed very exquisite and elegant. Even An Zixi had to admire her. Fortunately, Tang Jin Chen had not opened his eyes to see Li Qing since the beginning.
An Zixi’s attitude towards Li Qing suddenly turned 360 degrees. “Miss Li, you don’t seem to have a partner. If you can’t find me, I can ask Tang Jin Chen to accompany you.”
Everyone was shocked. They didn’t know what this meant. According to An Zixi’s understanding, even though they were engaged, Tang Jin Chen didn’t seem to have any interest in Li Qing. An Zi Xi seemed to be testing something. He wanted to continue saying something, but he heard Tang Jin Chen’s stern voice.
“What nonsense. Miss Li Qing doesn’t want An Zixi to take it seriously. She will arrange time for you to communicate privately in the future.” After saying that, his hands tightened again. He had always indicated that he hated open and secret battles between women. Seeing An Zixi’s words becoming more and more uneasy, he had no choice but to quickly stop them.
Tang Yuxin, who was watching the show from the side, said, “Ah, An Zixi, don’t think that appearing here is recognition of you. You have to understand what you should say. A scheming woman is not qualified to stand by my brother’s side. My brother has already said that she likes pure, kind and pure women. Do you think that you meet this requirement yourself?”
Tang Yuxin was just speaking casually. If it weren’t for the attention she had given Tang Jin Chen, An Zi Xi, this woman wouldn’t have had the chance to attend their family gathering. In fact, she felt a little regretful after she finished speaking.
“Yuxin!” Then came Tang Jin Chen’s angry reprimand. An Zi Xi’s expression was a little embarrassed. She knew that her arrival here would definitely attract some people’s doubts. She did not expect that she would encounter such a situation the moment she entered the arena. The people who spoke were both familiar with each other.
The matter of Li Qing framing her before is still remembered in my heart. It’s not that I don’t want to take revenge, it’s just that the time hasn’t come. On the contrary, although Tang Yuxin’s mouth was very poisonous, everything she did was a fair and honest case. An Zixi could actually understand that her brother had found such a woman. Anyone who was his younger sister would not agree to it.
“Isn’t this the daughter of the fallen An Clan? Why do I look so familiar when I say that she came in? It turned out to be the daughter of the An Clan. No, the An Clan has already fallen.” A few voices rang out in the crowd, “There are so many women who like Manager Tang’s hair, and each of them is better than this woman. Why would they fall for her?”
“She must be an extraordinary woman. Her schemes must be extraordinary.”
“I told you, there’s something wrong with Manager Tang’s vision.”
This was the first time someone dared to discuss Tang Jin Chen’s private life in public, Tang Jin Chen did not care. He smiled and explained to everyone, “Thank you for your concern for me. Miss An is indeed my girlfriend. Originally, I didn’t want to make it public. However, since everyone is so unhappy, then I will say it straightforwardly. Miss An and I are indeed in love. As for what everyone said, I will not give any explanation. Thank you.” As he finished speaking, he looked at An Zixi, who had an awkward and depressed expression. An Zixi was very surprised. Tang Jin Chen actually admitted that he was her girlfriend here. Was this considered certain?
“Well said, blessing.” Li Qing’s heart was filled with an endless atmosphere, but on the surface, she still pretended to be very generous. “I hope President Tang and Miss An’s love will last for a long time. After all, there are many people and many things in the world.”
Immediately after, a thunderous applause rang out. She didn’t know if it was true or not, but there were still some strange doubts. However, An Zixi didn’t care about it anymore. Right now, her mind was filled with what Tang Jin Chen had just said to everyone.
