"This is what it means to be born with a silver spoon in your mouth. I just want to ask those keyboard warriors who spread rumors about others being gigolos, don't they feel any shame?"

"I know about the Xie Household. If just having the surname Xie is enough to prove you're a member of the Xie Household, then I also have the surname Xie. I wonder if the Xie Household fathers will recognize me, their long-lost daughter."

Even so, many people still didn't believe it, since there was no substantial evidence. Just then, the rumored rich and beautiful "girlfriend" suddenly appeared and posted a clarification post on her private account.

#I was just meeting up with friends I hadn't seen in years, and this turned out to be such a big deal. Everyone, let's all move on; we don't have any gossip to share.

He even made fun of himself in the comments.

"My family is far worse off than his; how could I let him live off me?"

This also indirectly confirms that Xie Jianyuan's family background is indeed extraordinary, thus bringing this farce to an end. The fans who were previously struggling to control comments and arguing endlessly with passersby and haters can now hold their heads high and stand up straight, after all, they have now given a good slap in the face to those who jumped around and followed the trend.

Xu Chun heard the news as soon as he arrived at the company. He glanced at Weibo on his phone, a slight smile playing on his lips. Xiao Qi, sitting next to him, asked curiously, "What's wrong, Brother Chun? Why are you smiling so happily?"

"It's nothing." Xu Chun controlled the curve of her lips.

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and as I stepped into the corridor, I saw Jiang Xiuyan walking towards me, surrounded by a group of middle-aged people. It seemed they had come to the company to discuss business.

He was slightly taken aback when he saw Xu Chun, and then stopped in his tracks.

Chapter 82 The Banquet

"President Jiang, what's wrong?" The person next to Jiang Xiuyan asked cautiously when he saw that Jiang Xiuyan had stopped.

Jiang Xiuyan withdrew his gaze and remained silent.

The two, heading in opposite directions, walked towards each other in the narrow corridor. Just as they were about to pass each other, Jiang Xiuyan suddenly called out to Xu Chun in a low voice.

"A Chun."

Xu Chun didn't even flinch at Jiang Xiuyan's words, ignoring them completely, and continued walking forward with an unchanged expression.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiuyan suddenly reached out and grabbed Xu Chun's arm, causing Xu Chun to frown slightly. He looked down at the hand gripping his arm and his tone turned cold.

"Let go."

Jiang Xiuyan pursed his lips, said nothing, and just stared straight at him. The middle-aged men around him exchanged glances, then wisely avoided the scene and walked straight towards the elevator.

Now only Xu Chun's assistant was left, watching helplessly as Xu Chun was being held captive. She knew Jiang Xiuyan's identity, so she didn't dare to intervene and could only worry inwardly.

Suddenly, her gaze casually swept around the corner not far away, and when she caught sight of a certain figure, her eyes lit up. She quickly raised her voice and greeted him, "What a coincidence, Brother Xie! I didn't expect to run into you here."

Xie Jianyuan and his manager walked side by side. Xie Jianyuan was listening to his manager's words casually when he suddenly heard someone call his name. He couldn't help but look over, and when he saw Jiang Xiuyan, his gaze sharpened slightly.

Xu Chun felt Jiang Xiuyan's grip on her hand suddenly loosen, so she quickly pulled her hand away and then rubbed her arm expressionlessly.

"Yes, what a coincidence." Xie Jianyuan ignored his manager and strode towards Xu Chun and Jiang Xiuyan.

"I didn't expect President Jiang to have the time to visit our company."

Xie Jianyuan stared at Jiang Xiuyan, then gave him a lukewarm smile.

Upon hearing his form of address, Jiang Xiuyan's brows furrowed slightly. He knew that Xie Jianyuan noticed his bad mood, and the reason for his bad mood was that Xie Jianyuan was standing next to him.

Xu Chun's expression softened slightly upon seeing Xie Jianyuan's arrival. She then stood discreetly behind him, blocking Jiang Xiuyan's view of her.

Xie Jianyuan also noticed his actions, and then moved to the side, completely blocking his view.

Jiang Xiuyan's expression darkened. He lowered his eyes to himself, then gently clenched his fingers into a fist, as if he could still feel the lingering warmth.

"Yes, I have some business matters to discuss with your company," Jiang Xiuyan voice.

Xie Jianyuan's eyebrows curved slightly upon hearing this, but there was no hint of a smile in his eyes, "No need for President Jiang to come in person."

Jiang Xiuyan avoided Xie Jianyuan's gaze. Xie Jianyuan was right. He didn't need to come to the company in person for this kind of thing. They could just agree on a place to talk outside. He chose to come to the company because he had a selfish reason. He just wanted to see Xu Chun, even though Xu Chun always mocked him. Just hearing his voice and seeing him would be enough.

Seeing Jiang Xiuyan speechless as if his thoughts had been exposed, Xie Jianyuan smiled faintly, then reached out and pulled Xu Chun away from him.

Seeing that Xu Chun didn't resist or show any aversion to Xie Jianyuan's intimate actions, Jiang Xiuyan seemed to realize something. He suddenly froze, looked at the two of them in disbelief, and moved his lips hesitantly.

Xu Chun noticed Jiang Xiuyan's gaze, and suddenly reached out to take Xie Jianyuan's hand. She pursed her lips and looked at Jiang Xiuyan silently. After a second or two, she looked away and left without looking back.

Once downstairs, Xie Jianyuan asked Xu Chun what she was doing at the company. Xu Chun slapped her forehead and laughed helplessly, "I'm so forgetful, I forgot about going to see Su Li."

At this moment, Xiao Qi chimed in, "I'll go find Sister Su." With that, she quickly ran upstairs.

Xie Jianyuan's agent had already been dismissed, leaving only Xu Chun and Xie Jianyuan alone.

"What impact will it have if your background is exposed?" After all, most people have a resentment towards the rich. Once they know that others are living a smooth life and have a wealthy family, they will inevitably feel jealous and dissatisfied. Xu Chun's worries are not unfounded, because he has already seen a lot of comments Xie Jianyuan a prince and using his background to suppress his peers. Even his frequent appearances on the trending topics are said to be because he is rich and willful and buys a yearly subscription to the trending topics.
