Chapter 457 Catch an adulterer?
Amidst laughter and cheerful conversation, the clock hands struck twelve.
Just as the group was about to go home, Mu Mu was followed by the front desk manager who knocked on the door and entered.
"Miss, Lu Mengyin, a contestant in this year's Miss Hong Kong pageant, checked in tonight. The Fourth Young Master Xi went directly from the banquet hall to Lu Mengyin's suite via elevator. Not long ago, the Fourth Mrs. Xi raided the hotel and broke the Fourth Young Master Xi's head. The ambulance is already on its way."
The duty manager was sweating profusely.
What bad luck! Why did they have to cause trouble during the young lady's birthday party?
The duty manager lowered his head and spoke respectfully: "There are quite a few entertainment reporters staking out downstairs. Would you like us to arrange rooms for you and the other gentlemen and ladies?"
Fu Ziyan raised an eyebrow and turned to look at Xi Qingqing: "Qingqing, are you going home?"
Xi Qingqing concealed the astonishment in her eyes and shook her head: "I'll sleep here tonight."
With so many reporters downstairs, who knows which corner might be hiding someone? If she shows her face and gets photographed, she'll definitely dominate the headlines of tomorrow's morning paper. She can even imagine the headlines: "Who Will Prevail in the Succession Struggle of the Xi Family: Fourth Young Master Covered in Blood on Actress's Bed, Fourth Wife Appears with Reporters, Miss Xi Passes By in the Night."
Everyone knows that the successor to the Xi family is still undecided, and Hong Kong citizens love to watch this kind of drama. The print media, with their ambiguous statements, can easily throw mud at her.
It wasn't just public opinion, but also her father's own thoughts.
“This apartment has several rooms, I’ll stay with you.” Fu Ziyan smiled, it had been a long time since she last stayed with her girlfriends.
"Qingqing and Yanyan both live here, I want to live here too!"
"Why don't we have a pajama party and have some fun?" Xia Zhenzhen's eyes lit up as she excitedly offered a new idea. When it comes to having fun, she's a pro.
"Agree!"
"Okay~"
"Gentlemen, get out of here! Don't keep us girls from playing," Xia Zhenzhen said smugly. "Let's continue playing cards. That last round..."
A minute later, the wealthy young men, who had been kicked out of the elevator, looked at each other in desolation at the elevator entrance.
"actually..."
"Girls can play their games, but we can play our own."
Duan Yushu subtly stirred things up: "Selene has shares in the Lussen winery in Germany, so she must have left a lot of good wine at the hotel."
After all, this hotel is the first in the Yuanchen series, where Yuanxi's headquarters are located.
Lu Yan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Then tonight we'll take all the good wine Selene left here." Although Yan Yan doesn't like drinking, she likes collecting, so there must be some collectible wines here.
"good idea!"
The duty manager stood invisible on the other side, pretending not to hear anything, and silently pressed the elevator button for the next floor for the group of wealthy young men. The next floor was also a suite, and because the young lady had booked both floors for her birthday, this floor was also quiet, perfect for these rich kids to enjoy themselves to the fullest.
As soon as the suite door opened, the manager bowed and watched the young men enter. Then, he quietly turned and arranged for waiters to bring in a steady stream of fruits, desserts, and drinks, including the "fine wine" that the young men had been eyeing during their conversation.
This is a trivial matter and shouldn't bother the young lady; it can be handled with Mu Zhu's permission.
Mu Mu was upstairs in the suite, preparing all the game props for the young lady's pajama party. When she heard the duty manager's request, she simply nodded calmly and continued to prepare according to the young lady's ideas.
Just as Lu Yan had guessed, the young lady had stored several bottles of collectible wines at this hotel, which were meant to be used in special circumstances. So it was no problem for the young masters to ask to drink them.
The girls' pajama party was filled with laughter, while the men who had been kicked out of the girls' suite downstairs were also having a great time.
Fu Ziyan's private party after the dinner was attended by her childhood friends, who were all "playboys," so changing plans at the last minute was no big deal for them.
The incident of the Xi family catching their lover in the act actually had little to do with them, and it wouldn't matter if they came downstairs and appeared in the media's cameras. It was just that it was Selene's birthday tonight, and Selene wanted to stay and keep Xi Qingqing company, so the guests naturally had to follow the birthday girl's wishes.
It's just staying overnight in a hotel and having fun all night, right?
Sprinkle some water~
The cool moonlight shines down on the world, illuminating both laughter and sighs.
After his wound was bandaged at the hospital, Xi Qingzhou had just calmed down and sorted out his thoughts when his mother arrived at the ward, surrounded by servants and bodyguards.
After waving away the servants and bodyguards, only the mother and son remained in the ward.
"A-Zhou, how did you and Jia-Yue end up like this?"
Xi Qingzhou casually smoothed out the wrinkles on the quilt, her tone cold: "She deliberately stumbled upon this."
After a fierce battle with his two elder brothers, he finally succeeded in becoming the marriage partner of Ho Ka Yuet, receiving support from the Ho family and Sino Securities.
For the past three years, the couple had been loving and respectful to each other. Who would have thought that the man who had just asked him to help him choose earrings and necklaces not long ago would suddenly bring reporters to catch them cheating?
"Jia Yue did it on purpose?" Xi Weiru frowned. "Then you must have gone too far. A-Zhou, you have to coax Jia Yue back!"
Ah Zhou's transformation project cannot do without the He family's help!
Xi Qingzhou remained silent.
He Jiayue made things too ugly; she was deliberately trying to escalate the situation, and Xi Qingzhou was unwilling to back down.
How could Xi Weiruzhen not see what her son meant?
What kind of time is this to be throwing a tantrum like a spoiled brat!
She coaxed, "A-Zhou, without the He family, how can you manage this transformation project by yourself? The big picture is more important. Besides, you were in the wrong in this matter. If you really like that other woman, just talk to Jia Yue properly. When Jia Yue first found out about this, she was shocked. Doesn't that also mean she has feelings for you?"
Xi Qingzhou's eyebrows twitched, and she snorted angrily: "Feelings? How can I bear such a temper? Mommy, He Jiayue brought so many reporters to my door and even broke my head. I've lost all face!"
Xi Weiruzhen held back for a moment, but couldn't bear it any longer at her stupid son who only knew how to save face and throw tantrums. She asked in a deep voice, "If you can't accept this, can you accept the Xi family being taken away by Xi Qingqing?"
Given Xi Qingqing's momentum in making money for the group, and with the support of the eldest daughter of the Fu family, sooner or later the shareholders will all be on Xi Qingqing's side!
Xi Qingzhou clenched his fist; the name Xi Qingqing was the one he least wanted to mention these past two years.
"Mom, I just got my head smashed, don't you care about me at all?" Xi Qingzhou closed his eyes, not wanting to look at his mother at all, and pointed to the door with one hand, "I'm tired, you can go, let me rest for a while."
Xi Weiruzhen glanced at her son with disappointment, then got up and left. Her son was stubborn and couldn't distinguish between what was important and what wasn't, but she, as his mother, couldn't just ignore him.
A gust of wind blew through the ward door.
The personal maid came up and called out, "Madam."
Xi Weiruzhen said calmly, "You stay and take care of Azhou, watch over his wounds, and also, calm him down. I'll come back tomorrow."
"Yes, ma'am."
Xi Weiruzhen had a headache, so she just rubbed her temples and walked out without stopping.
This whole mess has caused her to have to rush back to the Xi residence and appease Xi Sen.
