Chapter 110 Given the Cold Shoulder
Chapter 110 Given the Cold Shoulder
She was moved a bit at that moment.
Jean walked towards Zed with his mother closely. Before they came near to him, a beautiful woman
appeared before them. The woman swiftly ran towards Zed and held his hands passionately.
"Zed! You are here too." Eva joyfully exclaimed.
After she saw what happened, Jean slowly lowered her head and looked at the floor.
Eva wore a light yellow dress that day. Her long curly hair fell over her shoulder. Looking from her back,
she was like a fairy that came from heaven; she looked very pretty.
Apart from her attractive attire, her makeup was very exquisite. It seemed that she had spent a lot of
time to dress up before she went out.
Jade immediately pulled a long face after she saw Eva. Eva behaving like that in public made Jade
disgusted. Some journalists might be around, watching and taking pictures of them. Qi Group's
reputation would be greatly affected if that scene was photographed and negatively reported with
fabricated headlines.
"Zed!" Jade called.
Eva turned around after she heard the voice. A smile slowly showed across her face after she found
out that it was Zed's mom who called him. Then, she pretended to be gracious and politely greeted,
"Hello, uncle, auntie. I am Eva Xu."
Sean didn't respond to her greetings. Instead, he coldly grunted, "Aren't you ashamed to flirt with a
married man in public? You are even a woman!"
Eva's smiling face gradually turned grumpy after Sean finished his words.
Jean had been thinking about Sean's thoughts being old-fashioned. He was also stubborn and hard-
headed like an old man. But, after she heard what he said to Eva that day, she felt that he had
revenged for her. Jean felt very happy.
Jade didn't like Eva either. She walked straight towards Zed without even glancing at Eva.
"Mom." Zed walked towards his mother and took a glimpse at Jean. He was so shocked.
Eva focused her eyes on Jean. She furiously stared at Jean while she gritted her teeth and
Clutched her fists. 'Why did Jean get the things that I should have gotten. The one that come with Zed's
parents there should have been me. But Jean replaced my place.'
Eva stood aside and saw Zed's parents walked past her coldly.
Jean apathetically glanced at Zed. Then, she kept her head down and went inside with her parents-in-
law.
Qi Group was a business leader. The owners of Qi Group, Sean and his wife, played important roles in
their company. They would become famous and noblemen in the world of business soon. Thus, all
people shifted their attention to them when they saw them coming. Moreover, some people noticed
Jean who closely walked with Jade.
"Is she the daughter-in-law of Qi family? She is surprisingly charming and beautiful. No wonder why
Mrs. Qi likes her."
"Yeah, you are right. I just wondered who that beautiful woman is. I didn't expect that she is Zed's wife.
I heard that Zed's wife looked plain and simple. But seeing her in person, I find her really pretty. That
one who said that she looks plain and simple must have been blind."
People who were looking at them were gossiping and whispering to each other. Eva walked behind Qi
Family in attempt to get Zed. However, Zed threw her off ruthlessly. Eva felt very angry after what Zed
did to her. She found no way to vent her anger out. Eva didn't expect that Jean would be in that
evening party.
Zed's parents coming over were also beyond her expectation.
She was so furious that she stamped her feet. Yet, she had no choice but to keep smiling. After all, she
looked very attractive that time, so, she could not afford to pull a long face.
One person noticed Eva's alluring beauty. He pointed at her and asked, "Ohhh. Who is the woman
behind them? She is also very beautiful. And it seems that she has something to do with Qi family."
After she heard that, Eva smiled with confidence, raised her head and proudly walked.
"Are you blind? She is the daughter of Xu Group. She had just returned from abroad after being there
for several months. I don't find her pretty. She isn't as beautiful as Zed's wife even if she wears too
much makeup!"
"Yeah, exactly."
Eva was dazzled for a moment. A flush immediately showed all over her face.
Some people said that she wasn't as good-looking as Jean. Were they blind?
She gritted her teeth covertly and walked out as fast as she could. Apart from the rage, a hint of
jealousy was also noticeable in her eyes.
She had dressed herself up to look perfect because she knew that Zed would come to that party. But,
Jean looked totally different today. Perhaps it was because of the pink Chanel suit she was wearing.

Eva was so angry as she thought about that. She even found it hard to breathe.
Jean did not like playing tricks and hated getting other people's attention. Zed had clearly told her that
the evening party would not be grandiose. However, it turned out to be so extravagant.
A lot of sociable females wore dazzling evening dresses at the lobby. They can easily get other
people's attention. Meanwhile, flirty men were talking with each other cheerfully and amusingly about
their businesses and interests in women.
Jean stood beside Zed and his mother that time, listening to flatters and fawns of people who came
over to greet them.
"Your dress fits on you very well." Zed gently said beside her.
Jean smiled and praised him in return, "Your clothes are very nice too. You look very attractive. All
women around even kept their eyes on you."
Feeling bored, she looked around and found that most women were looking at Zed. She couldn't help
but sigh. How could her husband attract so many attention?
After he heard Jean praised his attractive clothes, Zed frowned and stared at her with his cool eyes.
Then he ridiculously asked, "Are my clothes attractive or am I attractive?"
Jean was a bit stunned after Zed asked her about it. She burst into laughter.
Zed's parents were talking with other people that time. But they paused for a while the moment they
heard Jean's thoughtless laughter. Moreover, people around them shockingly looked at her.
The atmosphere in the party suddenly became serious.
Jean pondered for a moment and smiled embarrassingly. A lot of people were staring at her. She would
still feel very awkward even if she would choose to leave. Hence, she just stood still there aimlessly.
She didn't know what to do.
She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide. Jade smiled at her and asked, "Jean,
what's so funny?"
"Ah......" She pretended to look at people around calmly. She smiled charmingly and said, "Mom, Zed
told me a joke just now. Don't mind us. Just continue what you're doing."
She felt very embarrassed. She really didn't know what to do. Luckily, Jade saved her.
Jean slowly turned her face to Zed and looked at him. She winked her eyes and signaled Zed to leave
that embarrassing place with her.
However, Zed just stared at her and stood still. He raised his eyebrows and laughed as if he were
saying, 'Go on and convince me. Beg me, beg me!'
"Honey, I am hungry. Let's go and eat something." She pointed at the buffet table while purposely
raising her voice so that people could hear her.
Then, she turned around and said, "Mom and Dad, Zed and I are going there."
"Alright."
She took Zed's hand with a devious smile and walked towards the table with him. Jean raised her head
and looked at Zed. She was flaunting to Zed that she could still think of other ways even if he didn't
save her from embarrassment.
After he noticed Jean flaunting, Zed clasped her waist in his arm and tugged her close to him. She had
been caught off guard when Zed held her tightly. What Zed did not only shocked her, but also shocked
the people around them. People even exclaimed when they saw what happened.
