Wen Xinya was extremely entertained by the show. She suddenly discovered that Sun Xiaorou was not as detestable as she thought.

However, her happiness vanished at the next instant.

She noticed that Sun Xiaorou suddenly picked up a glass of champagne and walked towards the exhibition, seemingly advancing towards Si Yiyan. Clearly… Sun Xiaorou had made Si Yiyan her target.

Wen Xinya immediately turned pale with exasperation as she thought about how difficult it was to deal with Sun Xiaorou, as well as what the latter did to Wen Haowen earlier on. Before she could even grab the red wine served to her by the waiter, she strutted towards Si Yiyan in her 6-inch blue diamond stilettos.

Si Yiyan glanced at the woman who was walking towards him while handing his glass of champagne to the waiter slowly with grace. He then adjusted his tie with poise, appearing classy and elegant.

He then grabbed a glass of red wine.

Sun Xiaorou paused in her attempt to hunt for her prey, for Si Yiyan had already turned her down using his actions.

Only men who were strong-willed and proud would be able to use their actions to reject a woman’s advances. While she was making him her prey, he had also been observing every action of hers. No man liked being the prey, for they would often prefer being the one to do the hunting. If one were to act atrociously even after realizing that he had rejected their advances, he would make them pay an enormous price!

Sun Xiaorou’s knowledge of all types of men was the reason for her popularity amongst men.

Hence, she knew that she could not afford to provoke Si Yiyan.

She took a step back and turned around to leave.

At this point, Wen Xinya still had no idea what was going on. She only noticed that Sun Xiaorou had given up on making her advances on Si Yiyan and had turned around to leave.

She also noticed that Si Yiyan was gazing at her smilingly.

Feeling extremely embarrassed, Wen Xinya finally realized what she had done. I was too impatient. I should have acted according to Si Yiyan’s attitude!

Why was I so impatient!!?!

At this moment, Si Yiyan walked towards Wen Xinya and placed the glass of red wine that he had just sipped into her hand. “You’re pulling such a long face. Did someone provoke you?”

Although he rejected Sun Xiaorou just now, he had observed Wen Xinya’s actions and behavior. He noticed the fury in her eyes and the long face she pulled. Of course… he also noticed the beautiful diamond heels sparkling along with her rapid movement, exuding a dazzling shine beneath the chandelier.

He’s asking the obvious!

Pretending to be innocent, Wen Xinya touched her face and asked, “Really? Why didn’t I realize?”

Si Yiyan smirked and said, “You don’t have a mirror, so you can’t see your expression.”

Hence, it was normal for her not to know that she was pulling her long face.

Wen Xinya had lost to Si Yiyan in this round. She said with a sullen expression, “I’ll go look for a mirror and have a good look at myself, then.”

Wen Xinya then got ready to leave.

Si Yiyan hurriedly stopped her from leaving. He smirked and exclaimed, “Look over there!”

Wen Xinya looked in the direction of Si Yiyan’s gaze, only to see that Sun Xiaorou was speaking to another man with the same glass of champagne in her hand.

Wen Xinya knew that Si Yiyan preferred champagne to red wine, and that the champagne in Sun Xiaorou’s glass was the kind that he fancied.

She remembered that Sun Xiaorou had specifically asked the waiter for that glass of champagne after setting her sights on Si Yiyan. Hence… Sun Xiaorou clearly had yet to give up on Si Yiyan even though she had already walked away.

Wen Xinya stood rooted to the ground instead of leaving.

At this moment, Si Yiyan asked the waiter for another glass of champagne. “Would you allow me the honor to drink with you?”

Wen Xinya was just in the midst of feeling jealous. Upon sight of Si Yiyan holding a glass of champagne that was similar to the one in Sun Xiaorou’s hand, Wen Xinya snatched it away from him and shoved the glass of red wine into his hand instead. “I’ll have champagne while you have red wine!”

Si Yiyan smiled and exclaimed, “What a silly lass!”

No man would be willing to get involved with a woman like Sun Xiaorou during such events, for they would definitely end up on the tabloids if they were to get embroiled with her. He could not afford to be embarrassed.

The men whom Sun Xiaorou targeted ought to feel troubled.

Fortunately, Si Yiyan knew how to reject the advances of other women. If he were to act like Wen Haowen and allow Sun Xiaorou to get near him, Wen Xinya, Si Yiyan, and Sun Xiaorou could very end up making the headlines of tabloids the very next day. Wen Xinya would then get herself involved in a scandal and be accused of vying with Sun Xiaorou for a man.

The graceful and prestigious Wen Xinya could not afford to be involved with Sun Xiaorou. Otherwise, she would be bringing shame to herself.

Instead of rebutting Si Yiyan, Wen Xinya said indignantly, “I wasn’t planning to do anything. I just wanted to come closer and see what Sun Xiaorou was getting up to.”

Wen Xinya did not sound in the least bit confident at all. Although she believed that she could keep her cool and not get riled up or act recklessly just because of Sun Xiaorou, she clearly… wasn’t composed at all. She was not confident that she wouldn’t do anything to stop Sun Xiaorou.

Si Yiyan chuckled and said softly, “You wouldn’t have been able to see it.”

Wen Xinya asked, “Why?”

Si Yiyan answered, “Because I refuse to allow any woman except you to get near me.”

Wen Xinya laughed and said, “Does that mean that you rejected Sun Xiaorou and stopped her from getting near you? Why didn’t I realize?”

She had been staring at Sun Xiaorou just now and hence, did not notice what Si Yiyan was doing.

Si Yiyan smiled calmly and asked, “Would you like to find out?”

Wen Xinya nodded and exclaimed, “Hurry and tell me!”

Si Yiyan leaned closer towards her and said lustfully, “I’ll tell you when we’re in bed tonight.”

He pulled away soon after. The romantic exchange only lasted for a brief moment and no one noticed it at all.

Wen Xinya turned red and thought to herself, Shameless lecher!

He was just trying to tell her that she would have to pay a price to find out the answer.
