Since she was the one who had donated the most, everyone's attention was once again focused on her. At this moment, even Jiang Zhixin discovered her.
The two of them crossed paths. Jiang Zhixin nodded at her, but at the same time, she seemed to realize that the two men beside her felt ashamed and avoided her sight.
It was only then that Jiang Zhixin got a chance to catch her breath and prepared to come over to greet Huo XIwen. Huo XIwen was also about to head over to her side, but at this moment, a few people suddenly walked over and surrounded Huo Xiwen, "Miss Huo, long time no see. I didn't expect to see you here."
Huo Xi Wen looked at the two of them and realized that he had no impression of them. Thus, he could only greet them with a smile.
"Miss Huo appearing together with young master Chen today has given us quite a pleasant surprise. I wonder when you two will have your wedding? We're going to have to get a wedding wine." Another person said.
"What is it? Is there not enough wine for you to drink tonight? It seems like the host's hospitality is lacking." At this time, Mrs. Chen walked over with a smile.
When they saw her, they immediately greeted her, "Mrs. Chen."
Madam Chen smiled and turned to look at Huo XIwen, "Before today, Zi Chen told me that he would give me a surprise tonight. I was still wondering what kind of surprise it was, but I didn't expect it to be you, Miss Huo."
"Lady Chen, you must be joking. Zi Chen and I are good friends. Actually, we should have come to visit her at home a long time ago. It's just that we've been busy with trivial matters and haven't had the time. I hope Lady Chen won't be rude when we meet in such an occasion." Huo XIwen's words were always polite and polite, not overly intimate, nor did he give off the feeling of estrangement.
However, there was one thing she had made clear. She and Chen Zicheng were only good friends.
Upon hearing her words, Madam Chen's expression changed slightly, but she continued to smile and say, "How could you be rude? I've not even had the chance to welcome you yet."
"Mummy, Mrs Xu is looking for you right now. Go over there and say hello." At this time, Chen Zi Chen walked over from somewhere and said to Madam Chen.
Mrs. Chen naturally knew that he was here to rescue Huo XIwen, so he nodded, said goodbye to Huo XIwen, and turned to leave.
At this time, the people surrounding Huo XIwen also began to leave.
"How is it? My mom didn't tell you anything, did she? " Only then did Chen Zi Chen look at Huo Xi Wen.
Huo Xiwen shook her head, "Aunt helped me out. Those people just now seemed to have misunderstood our relationship. It's all thanks to Aunt coming over."
"So it's like that. I was afraid my mom would say something that would make you uncomfortable, so I came over to save you." Chen Zicheng laughed.
"Mrs. Chen has more sense than you. She wouldn't say anything that would make me uncomfortable." As Huo XIwen spoke, he looked in the direction of Jiang Zhixin, only to discover that she was nowhere to be seen. Even Zhou Yi and the director had disappeared as well.
Seeing that the dinner was almost over, Chen saw that Huo XIwen was worried that she might be tired after spending so much time on the plane and car, so he said, "It's getting late, I'll take you back to the villa to rest."
There was no point for Huo Xiwen to stay here any longer, so she nodded and left the venue with him.
The two of them walked out of the garden and passed through a long corridor, heading in the direction of the villa.
However, as he passed by the garden of Building Two, he heard faint cries for help coming from the direction of the swimming pool.
Huo XIwen heard the sound and immediately headed in the direction of the swimming pool. Because a banquet was being held in the large garden on the other side, there was no one here at all. When she approached, she saw that the director was currently pressing down Jiang Zhixin on the reclining chair by the swimming pool.
Her face was contorted in agony, her hands were struggling furiously, and her mouth was covered by the other party's hands, causing a weak sound to ring out.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Upon seeing this, Chen Zicheng immediately shouted out.
The director did not expect someone to barge in. His face turned red after drinking the wine. He raised his head and shouted at Chen Zicheng, "Get out of my way, don't meddle in other people's business."
Who was Chen Zichen? This was his territory! The rage in his heart instantly rose, and he charged forward, grabbing the back of the other party's collar, lifting him up from Jiang Zhixin's body. He raised his fist, and punched her in the face.
Now that he had been punched, he suddenly came to his senses. He looked at Chen Zi Chen in front of him, then looked at Jiang Zhi Xin who was sitting on the reclining chair crying, his expression turning flustered and exasperated as he pointed at Chen Zi Chen, "You..."You dare hit me..."
"An animal like you, hitting you is already considered light. Do you know where this is? "He actually did such a dirty thing right here." Chen Zi Chen scolded with a look of contempt on his face.
"I'm going to have an audition with my female lead. Who told you to meddle in other people's business?" At this moment, the director said with a straight face.
"Is that so?" Chen ZiChen snorted coldly, turning his head to look at Jiang Zhixin, "Miss, were you really testing the stage just now as he said?"
Jiang Zhixin stopped her tears and looked up at the director, feeling a struggle in her heart.
"Miss Jiang, you don't have to be afraid of him. We saw what happened just now and he tried to force you. As long as you are willing, we can help you arrest him." Huo Xiwen was afraid that she might have concerns, so she spoke up.
When the director heard that they were going to call the police and they had two more witnesses, he panicked.
Although his actions were stopped and did not cause any real harm to the other party, he was still a famous director and wore a halo around his body. If word of this got out, his reputation would be ruined.
No, he definitely could not allow this to happen.
"Jiang Zhixin, do you still want to play that role? If you don't want to act, then just slander me." It was at this moment that he began to threaten Jiang Zhixin.
Jiang Zhixin's teary eyes twinkled as she bit her lips. Seemingly having made up her mind, she raised her head to look at Huo XIwen."Miss Huo, Director Zheng was testing me just now."
When the director heard this, he heaved a long sigh of relief. When he saw Huo XIwen's expression, he immediately became arrogant.
Huo XIwen didn't expect Jiang Zhixin to cover up this man who tried to rape her. She didn't understand her choice at all, and at the same time, she felt a little angry, "Miss Jiang, you're just a character, do you need to be like this? "You..."
"Alright, Xi Wen, since it's a misunderstanding, then let's not bother about it anymore. We won't disturb their audition any longer." Chen took Huo XIwen's hand, gesturing for her to stop.
