The paparazzo hesitated to speak but Tang An immediately realized what was going on.

He threw the camera on the ground and kicked the paparazzo. “Are you really looking for—”

Before he could finish, Su Xun stopped him and warned, “Tang An.”

After Tang An stopped, he lowered his voice and said to Su Xun, “This person has been following me for a few days. It must be Tang Hao.”

Even the mess at the door might have been Tang Hao’s doing. It was precisely because Tang Hao could not stand his grandfather letting Tang An plan the birthday banquet that he played these dirty tricks behind his back.

“The guests are still here. Please entertain them first,” Su Xun reminded him briefly.

Tang An suppressed his emotions and said to all the guests present, “I’m sorry for making a fool out of myself in front of everyone. My grandfather is usually kind-hearted. He brought these pitiful people back… No, he raised an ingrate…”

He was still talking but Su Xun had already held Xi Wan’s hand, and Xi Wan also took Su Xun’s arm as well.

“The Tang family is fighting for power.” Su Xun lowered his voice and said to Xi Wan.

“Is it his cousin who’s causing trouble?” Xi Wan asked in a low voice. “Yes.” Su Xun responded and continued, “This has nothing to do with the Su family. You don’t have to worry.”

“I don’t really care.” Xi Wan said as she looked ahead, not caring about the changes in the surroundings.

After Su Xun glanced at her, he did not say anything else. Along the way, they had already attracted everyone’s attention.

Xi Wan’s white gown was already eye-catching, but after removing these external factors, her looks were also a killing weapon. Everyone’s gaze would be involuntarily attracted to her face.

This caused the convoy outside to move slowly. Wu Xing sat in the car and looked at the slowly moving cars in front of her. “How long before our car can enter? If we can’t enter, the birthday banquet is about to begin.”

Mrs. Wu comforted her, “Don’t worry, there are still so many cars behind us.”

Her father was also reprimanding her, “If you start to be impatient over such a small matter, what great things can you do? When you enter later, you have to pay attention to your words and actions. Don’t provoke the disgust of those rich young masters. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not saving your pride and chasing you back!”

The Xi family was in dire straits now. They had initially thought that Xi Wan would be able to reap some benefits from Su Xun’s marriage. He even thought of letting Wu Xing replace Xi Wan.

However, this matter could not be done overnight, so after thinking about it, they still chose a relatively safe method. They would take advantage of this birthday banquet to let Wu Xing get close to a rich young master.

That way, their family’s life would be easier then.

Furthermore, Xi Kang’s matter was already on the hot searches. The entire Xi family was in a mess but the Su family had no intention of making a move. It could be seen that Xi Wan had no say in front of Su Xun.

As expected, she was a good-for-nothing in her maternal family but she was also a good-for-nothing in her in-laws’ family.

Wu Xing felt very aggrieved but she did not dare to refute. She could only say, “Aren’t I just being impatient?”

When Mrs. Wu saw that the atmosphere between the father and daughter was very tense, she quickly stepped forward to mediate. She patted Wu Xing’s hand and said, “Isn’t your father doing this for your own good? What you have to do now is not only for our family but also for yourself. Didn’t you say that you were bullied by Xi Wan? If you can take advantage of this birthday banquet to find someone with a higher status than Su Xun, wouldn’t you be able to hold your head up high in front of Xi Wan?”

“I understand.” Wu Xing looked gentle and obedient on the surface, but in fact, she was thinking, “How could there be someone with a higher status than Su

XLIII ?,
No matter what kind of person she married, she would never be able to hold her head up high in front of Xi Wan!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She could clearly see Xi Wan holding onto Su Xun’s arm as they stepped into the banquet hall, through the car window.

How infuriating. What right did this Xi Wan have to have such a good life? Xi Wan, who was being cursed at, sneezed. Su Xun paused and lowered his head to ask her, “Did you catch a cold?”

Xi Wan shook her head. “No, someone must be scolding me behind my back.”

[Your intuition is quite accurate. There are indeed many people scolding you behind your back.] The system looked at the screen and whispered sarcastic words into Xi Wan’s ear.

Xi Wan ignored it and followed Su Xun to the innermost part of the room. Lord Tang was still in his room and he hadn’t come out yet..
