Chapter 378: It Would Be Impolite to Love Again

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wei Shisheng and Ou Shenzhi had just arrived when they heard Mu Chengxi announcing to everyone in the venue that Wen Xin was his fiancée. Wei Shisheng’s legs suddenly went weak, and if Ou Shenzhi hadn’t grabbed her arm, she might have fallen to the ground.

At that moment, the only thing echoing in Wei Shisheng’s mind was Mu Chengxi’s official declaration of Wen Xin’s status as his fiancée…

Ou Shenzhi looked at Wei Shisheng with a pained expression, noticing her pale face. He took her arm and led her away from the scene, worried that she might act impulsively and disrupt the banquet.

Once in the lounge, Wei Shisheng sat on a chair, muttering to herself with her head down, “Why? Why would he choose a worthless country girl over me? We grew up together… I’ve liked him for so many years, and he won’t even spare me a second glance. Why?”

“Shisheng, calm down. You still have me. I can, and I am willing to protect you for a lifetime!” Shenzhi couldn’t stand to see Shisheng so upset. He reached out to grip her shoulders, holding her tightly to prevent her from becoming too emotional and harming herself.

Hearing Ou Shenzhi’s words, Wei Shisheng looked up at him, her eyes brimming with tears, appearing vulnerable and pitiful.

“You? Do you like me? If you do, can you make Mu Chengxi like me? Can you make Wen Xin disappear from this world? Just let me be with Mu Chengxi, and I can help you. I’ll help you establish a partnership with Independence State. I promise that the Ou family can successfully enter Independence State…”

As Wei Shisheng mentioned Independence State, her eyes suddenly lit up. She took a tissue from the side to wipe the tears from her eyes, “Independence State, right… If I can, I’ll try… Then Grandma Mu will recognize me…”

“Wei Shisheng, snap out of it! Do you think Mu Chengxi would dare to publicly declare Wen Xin as his fiancée if Madame Mu wasn’t aware? The Mu family must have already accepted Wen Xin’s status. You have no chance!”

Ou Shenzhi looked helplessly at Wei Shisheng, who was so delusional. The matter was already settled, and he didn’t understand why Wei Shisheng couldn’t let go of Mu Chengxi, where he fell short compared to him.

“Wei Shisheng, look at me. I like you. If you’re willing to marry me, I can…”

“I don’t want to. I only want Mu Chengxi. Ever since I was young, I’ve had only one thought – to marry Mu Chengxi. I’ve never considered having any connection with you…”

Wei Shisheng looked down at the abject figure of Ou Shenzhi kneeling before her. She had always been aware of Ou Shenzhi’s feelings for her. She allowed him to get close solely to use him and never considered a future with him.

The cold rejection left Ou Shenzhi frozen in place. He thought he had finally seen a change of heart in Wei Shisheng, but in the end, it was only his wishful thinking.

Ou Shenzhi slowly stood up, looking down at Wei Shisheng seated in the chair, “This is the last time I’ll ask you. Have you really decided? Do I truly stand no chance?”

“Ou Shenzhi, let’s stop here. To go on would be impolite,” Wei Shisheng replied, not daring to meet Ou Shenzhi’s eyes. Seeing the way he treated her, she saw a pitiful reflection of her own unrequited love.

“Alright then, may you get what you wish for, and your desires be fulfilled!” Wei Shisheng wouldn’t even grant Ou Shenzhi a glance, and with disappointment, he left the lounge after a while.

The commotion in the venue had subsided. Wen Zhimo, looking bewildered, was led aside by Ma Wenyuan.

The group of women who had called Wen Xin a country bumpkin had been escorted out by Mu Bei.

The venue quickly became much quieter, with people occasionally glancing over at Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin.

Wen Zhimo had recovered from her shock. She tugged at Ma Wenyuan’s sleeve, knowing that he had always been in touch with Wen Xin. Seeing how he had stepped in to help her just now, she guessed he must have known about Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi for a while.

“You and Wen Huai knew about Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi being together, right?”

Ma Wenyuan sighed lightly and nodded, thinking that his wife was quite a troublemaker. If not for Mu Chengxi’s giving face to Wen Xin, they might have been thrown out too.

Being asked to leave such a gathering in the capital would mean social ruin, or, at the very least, a significant fall from grace. Even if he could survive, he would definitely not be as good as before.

“Wen Xin is currently studying at Ice City No.l Middle School, and Mu Chengxi has been accompanying her in Ice City. I only found out about their relationship after Wen Xin started school. It’s only just now that I’ve heard about the fiancée status.’

Ma Wenyuan had previously kept it from Wen Zhimo, not wanting her to go to Ice City and disturb Wen Xin. Now that he could no longer hide it, he told her the truth.

“They’ve been together for so long? It seems Wen Xin is serious, then. What about the marriage alliance with Independence State…”

Before Wen Zhimo could finish, a group of people walked into the banquet hall, led by a lean man in a black suit.

The man had the features of an Asian face but strikingly clear blue eyes. His sharp, angular face highlighted his exquisite features, exuding a natural regal aura.

At a glance, the only person in the entire venue who could match Mu Chengxi’s presence was him.

Hearing the noise at the entrance, Wen Xin, who had been casually chatting with Mu Chengxi, looked up.

As she recognized the man who had walked in, a cold light flashed in her eyes as she locked gazes with Alfredo.

Surprise flickered in Alfredo’s eyes; he had not expected to find the person he had been searching for here.

Mu Chengxi, noticing the change in Wen Xin’s expression, followed her gaze. With one hand in his pocket and the other around Wen Xin’s waist, his dark, deep eyes sharpened as he looked at Alfredo.

Few in the venue knew Alfredo, but they all understood that anyone who appeared at this event must hold a significant status.

At that moment, they were all guessing the identity of the man who had unexpectedly shown up at the event.

“Cousin…” A cheerful female voice came from another direction in the venue. Wei Shisheng, dressed in an elegant haute couture gown, walked over swiftly and affectionately latched onto Alfredo’s arm..
