"Mr. Nian..." Zhong Yi bit her lip and tears were welling up in her eyes.
Xiao Si added, "Sansan, she's wearing the same gown as you."
Before Luo Sang could say anything, Nian Junting said enthusiastically, "That's right, but I think she's wearing the fake. It looks ridiculous on her, Miss, you should wear something more suitable for yourself. It looks really awkward when you try to wear a new design when you don't have the looks to complement it."
"Jingxi..." Zhong Yi said pitifully, she looked at Yi Jingxi and pleaded for him to say something.
Yi Jingxi took the opportunity and said, "Mr. Nian, it's very ungentlemanly of you to speak to a lady this way."
"What did I say? I didn't tell her that she was ugly to her face."
Nian Junting said coldly, "I just tried to subtly convey my opinions and advice to her, she really doesn't look nice in this gown. Would you have preferred it if I called her a great beauty? I think that would have been more disrespectful, to lie to her I mean. She can only improve with honest feedback."
Luo Sang almost wanted to clap for Nian Junting.
He had been very subtle with her already, she thought.
His malicious comments could really poison someone to death.
This was the first time she felt so delighted hearing his snide comments.
Find yourself a caustic husband and you won't ever need to argue for yourself.
Yi Jingxi smiled, "Your subtlety really blows my mind."
"I'm impressed by your thick skin too."
Nian Junting said sympathetically to Zhong Yi, "Choose the right dress in the future, something that uplifts your status and looks. Don't force your boyfriend to run over to my girlfriend and call her his fiancée. That'll be upsetting."
His words were like harsh slaps to both of their faces.
There were other patrons in the restaurant, even though Yi Jingxi was good at keeping a poker face, it was hard for him to hide his dark expression now.
As for Zhong Yi, her face was a pale a sheet and she was on the verge of fainting.
"Let's go Tingting, the charity ball is starting in 5 minutes, " Xiao Si reminded him with a giggle.
"Goodbye, Mr. Yi, " Nain Junting wrapped his arm around Luo Sang's waist and waved goodbye with his free hand. He turned and walked away with Luo Sang.
Yi Jingxi was seething in anger as he watched them walk away, nobody dared to say anything around him.
At last, Fu Shengyou cleared his throat, "Mr. Yi, I'll go get the bill, this meal is on me."
"It's ok, how can I make you pay for the meal, " Yi Jingxi patted his shoulders and gestured Zeng Zhun to get the bill.
"Who is that cocky man, Mr. Yi, " Fu Shengyou asked.
"The CEO of Shengting Corporation, Nian Junting."
Yi Jingxi said slowly, "I heard some news about Shengting's intentions on buying over Yu Xi, they've been asking around the industry. He has seen you with me now, if he buys over Yu Xi for real, I'm afraid you won't be getting the kind of emphasis placed on you now."
Fu Shengxu looked serious, "Don't worry Mr. Yi, I will do my best to convince the shareholders of the director board to sell their shares to you."
"I'm going up to change, Mr. Yi, " Zhong Yi said palely.
"Do we have time for that, it's three minutes to the opening, " Yi Jingxi looked at her coldly, he knew that she wasn't as beautiful as Luo Sang was.
He couldn't see a stark difference in the past, but now that the two of them were wearing the same gown, the difference was like heaven and earth.
