The CEO's Substitute Ex-Wife-Chapter 183: Confrontation and Misdirection
Chapter 183: Confrontation and Misdirection
However, this Zhao Yuning was a little different from the one they usually saw. Heavily made-up, wearing a **purple wig**, and dressed in a **low-cut, tight purple dress** that barely covered her hips, with high heels and black stockings, she looked exceptionally **sexy and wild**. Her dancing, seemingly designed to entice, was truly captivating to men.
"Are you sure that’s Zhao Yuning?" Lin Ning frowned. Her makeup was too heavy, and her dance moves were too provocative, almost pressing intimately against the male artist.
While dancing, people often get close, and they usually didn’t have prejudices. But Zhao Yuning was kissing the man while dancing, which was more than just a dance partner relationship.
Ye Feimo remained expressionless. Chen Xueru was drinking. Su Ran glanced at Chen Xueru, then back at the woman on stage, very curious. "Did the Spanish bullfighter possess her? Why is she so wild?"
Cai Xiaojing couldn’t help but gossip a little. "I heard Lin Jia say that Zhao Yuning just recovered from a suicide attempt and is in very poor health. Am I seeing things? Dancing so intensely, where is she unwell?"
Everyone remained silent in unison.
Wen Nuan watched with a smile, but inwardly couldn’t help but grumble, *What’s with this? She looked so delicate and charming just now, but in a blink, she’s transformed into a sexy goddess.*
Gu Yun said, "I remember, I think I saw her here last time too. She even bumped into me, wearing this same outfit. At the time, she looked familiar, a bit like Zhao Yuning. Look, is it her?"
"Her makeup makes her look like a goblin, who can tell? But... she really does look like her," Su Ran said. "Oh, a delicate, fragile girl suddenly turning into a sexy goddess is truly intriguing. In Shuwen’s impression, she’s a lily, right? I’m going to see if it’s really her."
Su Ran stood up, but just as he got halfway, the song ended. When he returned, everyone asked if it was Zhao Yuning. Su Ran spread his hands. "She’s gone. A paranormal event."
Ye Feimo said expressionlessly, "Who cares who she is? Let’s just enjoy ourselves."
"Tsk, tsk, Tang Da... didn’t he leave with Zhao Yuning just now?" Lin Ning raised an eyebrow. No one responded. Gu Yun suggested playing strip poker, and the three women glared at him. "You want to take advantage of us?"
"Miss Xiaojing, are you giving up already?"
"Who’s giving up? I’m not playing that."
Chen Xueru thought for a moment. "Let’s play next time we gather. This time, it’s too much of a disadvantage."
*They didn’t have enough accessories to take off.* Wen Nuan nodded. "Next time, next time, we’ll definitely play next time."
*She’d wait until she had ten or eight necklaces on before playing with them.*
"Women are indeed bold when it comes to their chests, but timid otherwise," Lin Ning said, incidentally glancing at Cai Xiaojing’s chest. Cai Xiaojing smiled, but stealthily stomped hard on Lin Ning’s foot.
The handsome director immediately exploded, cursing loudly, and Wen Nuan collapsed into Ye Feimo’s arms, laughing.
Midway through, Chen Xueru’s phone rang. She looked at the caller ID, her smile fading, and stood up to go to the bar. As soon as she answered, Tang Shuwen’s cold voice came through the phone: "Where are you?"
Chen Xueru said calmly, "With friends."
"What friends?" Tang Shuwen asked coldly, then heard the noisy background on the phone, his voice suddenly deepening. "Chen Xueru, are you at a dance club?"
"Yes!"
There was a moment of silence. Tang Shuwen then sharply said, "Don’t you see what time it is? Still messing around outside! Come home."
Recently, Gu Rui had been harassing Chen Xueru quite a bit. Coupled with Xiao Nian’s return, the Tang family was worried about the mother and son and insisted that Chen Xueru live at the Tang residence as Tang Shuwen’s fiancée.
Xiao Nian couldn’t be without his mother, and the Tang family adored him. Moreover, Gu Rui had previously visited and harmed Xiao Nian. After weighing her options, Chen Xueru could only agree to stay at the Tang residence.
Tang Si and Wen Lan had their own ulterior motives, hoping they would develop deeper feelings for each other.
Unfortunately, living together only led to more mutual torment. One was cold and heartless, the other calm as water. Their hearts, never truly close, drifted even further apart.
Chen Xueru calmly said, "Tonight I’m going back to my apartment. I’ve already told Uncle. I’ll go over tomorrow to have breakfast with Xiao Nian."
"Chen Xueru!" Tang Shuwen sharply retorted. "Where are you?"
Chen Xueru was impatient. "Casablanca."
With that, she hung up and turned off her phone.
She strongly disliked Tang Shuwen’s tone when he spoke to her. They clearly disliked and tormented each other, so what right did he have to interfere with her life? She had promised him she wouldn’t interfere with him and Zhao Yuning, and he shouldn’t interfere with her life either.
She told a lie; this was Blueberry Night, not Casablanca.
Wen Nuan had invited her out specifically to relax, and her mood had been restless lately. Hearing Tang Shuwen’s stern and cold tone only increased her aversion. What right did he have to control her with a husband’s tone?
The bartender asked, "Miss, would you like to order a drink?"
Chen Xueru smiled. "What’s your house special?"
"Blueberry Night and Enchanted Night."
Chen Xueru frowned. "I’ll have a Blueberry Night."
The cocktail was quickly prepared. The bartender presented the drink; it was colorful and looked very beautiful. Chen Xueru took a sip and found it very good, sweet and sour.
The bartender said, "This drink has a strong kick. Please drink slowly, Miss."
The young bartender could tell that Chen Xueru was not in a good mood. Chen Xueru smiled, then downed the drink in one go. The bartender was stunned. Chen Xueru said thank you and returned to chat with Wen Nuan and the others.
The bartender charged it to Ye Feimo’s tab. It was the first time he had seen a woman drink such a cocktail so quickly.
She returned to see Wen Nuan also drinking the same cocktail. Chen Xueru smiled. Since Wen Nuan was drinking it, it was probably like drinking a soft drink, so it was fine.
The group played until the early hours of the morning before dispersing. Wen Nuan and Ye Feimo left together. Chen Xueru had come by taxi, and Su Ran volunteered to drive her home. Chen Xueru didn’t refuse.
Wen Nuan was a bit tipsy, her face flushed, looking exceptionally charming. As Ye Feimo fastened her seatbelt, he couldn’t resist pecking her cheek. Wen Nuan felt a bit warm and sweaty.
"Ye Feimo, it’s hot... turn on the air conditioning."
"Good girl, it won’t be hot once we’re home." Ye Feimo smiled like a satisfied cat. *This little idiot, just waiting to be eaten by him.* He was quite looking forward to seeing if a tipsy Wen Nuan would be even more passionate.
