C2 Chapter 2

"Did you see that? Jun Yue's boss has also arrived, and is standing right over there. Even Dong Xuan had personally gone over. "

"It can't be? "He really came?"

"Look at what you're saying, why would I lie to you!" There are too many people who want to make friends with the Si Family. Don't you know what the Si Family is like? "

"I naturally have heard of the Si Family. However, how could we have access to such a family? However, I have seen it on the news." Looking at the pictures in the magazine, that Si Family's young... "

"She's only in her thirties, of course she's young?" "He's single too. Although I've married one before, it's already an early stage. I heard that the Wen family's daughter had already left in less than a year …"

"..."

The discussion in the banquet hall gradually died down. Su Annuo carefully looked at the two wives who were talking about them in hushed tones, then looked towards the banquet hall.

Si Mingyu also came?

Su Annuo looked over curiously, but the eye-catching man also turned around at that moment, coincidentally also looked in her direction. Su Annuo was shocked when their eyes met, her heart stopped beating for a moment, but when she returned to her senses, she quickly looked away, pretending that nothing had happened.

However, even though she didn't want to look at him anymore, Su Annuo still felt her heart beating very fast. She lowered her head and put down the bottle. She hurriedly picked up her wine cup and plate and walked towards the gathering place.

Boss Si shouldn't be able to see her, right? If he saw her working here as a waiter, he would say that she had humiliated the Si family. But didn't Zi Hao say that his second uncle wouldn't normally attend such a banquet? Why would he appear here today? It seemed that today's business party was indeed very important.

Su Annuo did not know anything about Si Mingyu's circle, nor did she want to understand it.

Su Annuo took the wine tray and pretended to work hard as she shuttled back and forth among the guests. Soon, the tray was empty and she took the opportunity to reach the side door of the hall.

After leaving, Su Annuo looked back to make sure that no one had noticed her leaving before letting out a long breath and leaning against the wall weakly.

She had always been afraid of Zi Hao's second uncle. She was afraid of everyone in the Si Family, and whenever she met anyone, she would hide herself from afar, afraid that if she were to be caught, Zi Hao would have a hard time doing anything and would be surrounded and attacked by his family.

"What are you hiding from?"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from above her head. Su Annuo was startled and turned around in a flustered manner.

"Si, si …" "Second Uncle … …"

Su Annuo was so scared that her voice trembled. She averted her eyes in panic like a little rabbit seeing a wolf. She wanted to turn around and run.

Si Mingyu's tall and big body stood in front of her. His expression was as cold as usual and his gaze was as cold as his voice.

Su Annuo couldn't help but retreat, and only after retreating out of the range of his oppressive aura did she weakly raise her eyes to look at him. Suddenly, she bowed to him and explained in a serious tone, "I didn't hide from you. I just didn't want to embarrass you."

She also understood that in the eyes of those big shots, with her status, she really wasn't worthy to be Young Master Sun's girlfriend.

Si Mingyu's heart tightened when he heard that. His gaze fell on her face, "Why are you so stupid as to stand there and get beaten up? Why aren't you retaliating?"

Su Annuo lowered her head and did not say a word. She did not want to explain.

But her silence only made him angrier, and his tone immediately grew colder. "Too weak a woman to be worthy of a superior."

Su Annuo nodded obediently, indicating that she understood. However, she refused to raise her head and meet his gaze.

Si Mingyu looked at the silent quail in front of him. He felt like the air in his chest was not going to go away, and his whole body was filled with an oppressive aura.

The man and woman remained silent for a while. Finally, Si Mingyu gave up and said, "You better take care of yourself". Then, he turned around and returned to the banquet hall.

"Whooosh."

Once the big boss left, Su Annuo immediately let out a long sigh. Amongst all the people in the Si Family, the one she was most afraid of was her second uncle, Zi Hao.

"Do your best..." Su Annuo repeated the same words as her grandpa. It wasn't like she was intentionally standing in front of him as an eyesore. Why was her grandpa in a rage? If she knew that the Si family members would appear at this banquet, she wouldn't have come …

"Eh? "Wait a minute!"

Su Annuo finally reacted. What did the grandpa just say? He said that a woman who was too weak was not worthy to be his superior?

So, was he willing to admit that she was a woman of the Si Family? He didn't object to her being with Zi Hao anymore?

As Su Annuo thought of this, her face no longer ached. She happily returned to the banquet hall.

As soon as she entered the hall, a person rushed in front of her. He grabbed her hand and said: "I'm sorry, young mistress. My wife was rude just now. Sorry …"

Su Annuo shook off the man's hand. After seeing who it was, she said, "It's alright …"

Wasn't this the male lead of the farce in the banquet hall? Hey, why did this gentleman suddenly come to apologize to her? And his face. Why is he also swollen?

"How could it be all right? "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have gotten hurt. This all happened because of me. Look at me, I'll drink an apology. Can you forgive me?" As he spoke, the middle-aged man picked up the wine glass and drank three cups in a row.

The middle-aged man's movements could be said to have been completed in one go, so fast that Su Annuo had no chance to stop him at all.

"Err …" After this, Su Annuo became even more embarrassed and stood blankly on the spot.

The middle-aged man didn't have enough to drink by himself, he even passed the wine to Su Annuo, "Young miss, let me toast you. Even if you forgive me, we can forget about this matter. If you have any problems in A City in the future, come and find me, I will definitely help you …"

Su Annuo didn't feel lucky at all. Instead, she became even more annoyed and awkwardly refused, "Sorry, sir, I don't know how to drink. "Besides, I'm still at work. We have a rule that we can't go against the rules and we will be punished if we do."

"It's fine, I can explain it to you and the boss."

"Mister, there's really no need for that. If your wife comes back, I'm afraid something bad might happen again. I won't be drinking this wine, it's not a big deal anyway. You're busy, so I'm going to work first."

Su Annuo was about to run away when the man grabbed her back. "You don't even want to drink wine? You're looking down on me!"

Su Annuo was shocked. She turned her head to look at the middle-aged man, wanting to kick him and run away immediately, but after calming down, she could only dispel this thought. Everyone here was from influential people, she couldn't afford to offend them, including the man in front of her.

"Sir, we have a fixed number of hours to work …"

"What are you panicking for? With me protecting you, nothing will happen!" When the middle-aged man saw that her expression had loosened up, the aggressive look on his face immediately changed.

Seeing that she couldn't refuse anymore, Su Annuo had no choice but to accept the wine cup and finish it in one gulp. She then turned around to leave.

The middle-aged man was unwilling to let her go. He held her back and clapped, "As expected of a female hero. Miss, please have another one."

Su Annuo couldn't walk away after being stopped by a group of people. They all wanted to toast her, calling it toasting her. It would be more accurate to call it pouring wine, as even her big brother harboured malicious intentions.

Surrounded by the crowd, Su Annuo passed the wine cup by cup.

"I'm sorry, can everyone please step aside? I still need to go to work. Please don't do this, manager, manager …"

Unable to understand how the situation could turn into this, Su Annuo was held captive and unable to move. She shouted out in panic, "Si Mingyu, save me …"

Everyone was shocked when they heard Si Mingyu's name, but soon, one of the men signaled with his eyes and someone immediately covered her mouth. The others dragged her out and they quickly disappeared from the banquet hall.

"Hurry up and bring him out. Look at his face. The higher ups will definitely be satisfied with this trash..."

Su Annuo's mouth was covered by someone, and her arms were bound. With her strength, she couldn't shake these men. She was sweating profusely from anxiety, but there was nothing she could do. This was the first time she had encountered something like this. She could only pray that someone would see and come save her.

"Stop, let her go!"

Suddenly, a cold male voice came from not too far away. When Su Annuo heard the voice, she immediately became excited.

She knew the man. He was Si Mingyu's assistant.

Su Annuo was so excited that she was on the verge of tears, but then she started to worry. With so many people around, he would definitely be alone and wouldn't be able to deal with them.
