Everyone was shocked. Wang Gang felt a little regretful that he had not informed Joshua about Gu Ruochu's status. Huo Nanchen had actually witnessed his wife being hit on by someone else. The scene had been very embarrassing.
2However, the couple had ignored each other at the table up to that point. Wang Gang could not figure out what was going on.
2Gu Ruochu composed herself and glared angrily at Huo Nanchen.
Huo Nanchen had attended the banquet just to pick on her. She no longer regretted slapping him during their quarrel.
2Wasn't it An Duo who had asked Joshua to pursue Gu Ruochu? Why hadn't Huo Nanchen rebuked her?
2Gu Ruochu looked at the dumbfounded foreigner and put on a polite and gentle smile.
2Huo Nanchen had ignored her all night, but suddenly, he was now pretending that he cared about her.
2"Mr. Joshua, are you all right?"
2Gu Ruochu reached out her hand and helped him up. "I'm sorry."
2Gu Ruochu dusted Joshua's suit as she apologized.
2Huo Nanchen glared at Joshua's hand as if he wanted to break it. Everyone noticed his bone-chilling stare.
2"It's all right."
2Joshua had not expected to be pulled back by Huo Nanchen. When he saw the look in Wang Gang's eyes, he understood what was going on.
2He obediently returned to his seat and acted as if nothing had happened.
One of Joshua's friends was unhappy. "Director Wang, is this how your city treats its guests? Joshua only wants to get to know this lady. This lady is too unfriendly, isn't she? Please apologize to my friend."
2The atmosphere instantly froze. Gu Ruochu had no idea who the foreigner was.
2It was Joshua who had flirted with her, yet he wanted Gu Ruochu to apologize. She did not like the foreigner's tone.
2Zhang Yuan had been observing everything from the side and spoke up leisurely, "Miss Gu, just apologize. Everyone was having a good time. There's no need for a fall out over such a small matter."
2The anger that Gu Ruochu had held back earlier finally erupted to the surface.
2The foreigner was clearly looking for trouble. "Which circle are you from? Are you that insensible?"
2Joshua felt a little awkward and tried to persuade his friend. "Forget it. It was my fault."
2Wang Gang wanted to stand up for Gu Ruochu, but he also didn't want to anger his foreign guests. After all, Huo Nanchen was present.
2"I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving."
2Gu Ruochu did not want to cause another scene, so she stood up to leave.
2The foreigner felt that he had lost face in front of everyone, and his expression turned even uglier. "Don't go! I say, what exactly are you..."
2"Huo Nanchen, do you really have no bottom line!" Gu Ruochu was furious. He had provoked the foreigners, yet they had ignored him and were making things difficult for her.
2If it had been Cheng Xi, he would have already reacted and protected him.
2What about her? What place did she have in his heart? The two foreigners had harassed her, but he had only looked on coldly as if he was observing a joke!
2Gu Ruochu's words silenced the foreigner who had confronted her. He seemed to realize that there was a deeper relationship between Huo Nanchen and Gu Ruochu. He thought that Huo Nanchen had just made a casual move when he defended Gu Ruochu from Joshua's advances.
2"Sit down and eat."
2Huo Nanchen grabbed Gu Ruochu's wrist and forced her back into her seat. His gaze swept across the foreigner. "Your friend seduced my wife in front of me, and now you want my wife to apologize?"
2The foreigner's face turned red. He had not expected such an outcome.
2"Sorry, sir! I'll apologize on his behalf." The foreigner's apology was sincere.
2Zhang Yuan laughed icily and drank her wine in a sullen manner.
2Soon, the atmosphere of the wrap party returned to its previous lively state. Gu Ruochu took a few bites of her food and excused herself. She did not want to spend any more time at the party.
