His love was not that selfless. It could even be said to be selfish.

He could abandon the whole world, but the only thing he couldn't accept was Freya leaving him.

He would do everything he could to make her have the happiness that all women in the world would envy.

Freya leaned against his chest and clearly heard the sound of the man's heart beating for her. It was so beautiful and pleasant.

She pursed her lips and hummed in agreement, "Okay, for all lifetimes, I'll only belong to you."

The two of them were being affectionate, making the socialites in the crowd extremely envious.

What was more, this high-quality man didn't show any interest in other women. Just now, so many female guests had gone up to say hello, but he didn't even want to look at them.

And what was the result?

He was only so gentle and considerate towards Freya. He even took the initiative to get food for her, and they fed each other.

The female guests were so jealous that their eyes turned red.

Why were all the good men someone else's? Why couldn't they meet such a high-quality man?

"If you're envious, then try to snatch him away with your real abilities!" Suddenly, a sarcastic voice came from the crowd.

The female guest looked up and saw a woman she didn't know. She was heavily made up, and her bright red lips were so coquettish that they seemed to be dripping with blood.

However, although she didn't recognize the woman, someone quickly identified her.

"Isn't this Xia Yanxi, the popular actress who once starred in a low-brow movie?"

When someone mentioned this, many people also recognized her.

That's right, it was Xia Yanxi, the actress who had become famous all over the country with the movie "Flick of the Sleeve".

But once a person became famous, there were also more scandals. Xia Yanxi's past scandals had been dug up, and even the pornographic film she made with Director Zhu had become widely known.

Because of this, the popularity of "Flick of the Sleeve" quickly declined, and it became Zhou Xu's first bad movie.

Xia Yanxi had hidden herself for a long time to avoid the rumors.

Unexpectedly, today she actually came to Master Mu's birthday banquet and even incited other female guests to snatch Bradley away.

The socialites began to point fingers at Xia Yanxi, and their words were sharper and more unpleasant one after another.

"Miss Xia, this isn't a film set. Dressing so revealingly, who are you trying to seduce?"

"I heard that Master Mu only invited celebrities and powerful people. How did you, a has-been actress, manage to sneak in?"

"Could it be that Miss Xia has given up on making movies and instead switched to being a mistress for an old man?"

Just as someone said this, Zhou Xu was walking over while socializing.

Xia Yanxi's face turned ugly from being criticized. She pointed at everyone and stammered, "You, you guys..." but couldn't say a complete sentence.

In the end, she stomped her foot and cursed, "You really are like a dog biting Lu Dongbin. You don't recognize a good heart. I was just doing this for your own good, but you turned around and bit me. Forget it, I don't want to argue with you guys."

After saying that, Xia Yanxi walked towards Zhou Xu.

For Master Mu's birthday banquet this time, she had talked herself hoarse before finally persuading Zhou Xu to agree to bring her along.

Of course, she had also promised Zhou Xu not to cause trouble at the banquet.

The key was that these were all socialite ladies from wealthy families, and each of them was someone she couldn't afford to provoke.

Xia Yanxi had suffered so many losses that she had long learned to be smart and not to cause trouble recklessly. Anyway, other people could say whatever they wanted, and it wouldn't hurt when they were scolded.

She wanted to hook her arm through Zhou Xu's, but he coldly avoided her.

"Remember, we're just a director and an actress. Don't go too far."

In public, they distanced themselves from each other, but in private, they were still entangled.

Zhou Xu had wanted to take revenge on Xia Yanxi before, but later he had tasted the sweetness with her again and thought it would be okay to just play around with her.

Anyway, she had offered herself, so why not take advantage of it?

Xia Yanxi naturally knew what Zhou Xu was thinking, but she didn't dare to lose her temper. After all, if Zhou Xu turned against her, she would never be able to make a comeback in her life.

Therefore, as long as Zhou Xu could give her money, she could even tolerate being his secret mistress!

The two of them kept a distance in the venue. Even though Zhou Xu had made a bad movie, his success over the years couldn't be denied.

Many people came to strike up a conversation with him, and Zhou Xu accompanied them to drink and chat.

As for Xia Yanxi, who was left out in the cold, she was unwilling but couldn't blend into the socialite circle, so she could only slink off to the corner and stay there.

Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she saw Freya and Bradley being affectionate in the corner.

Hatred flashed in Xia Yanxi's eyes, but she knew very well that going against Freya in this kind of occasion would definitely end badly for her.

So, she pretended not to see them and turned to leave.

At this time, someone behind her called out to her, "Miss Xia, let's have a chat."

It was the socialite from before.

And this call attracted the attention of Freya and Bradley.

After not seeing Xia Yanxi for several months, Freya was still a bit surprised to see her again.

However, she had already expected what kind of end Xia Yanxi would come to.

Compared to a few months ago, Xia Yanxi had changed her appearance again. It seemed that she was addicted to plastic surgery and wouldn't feel comfortable if she didn't have a surgical procedure for a few days.

But that chin was as sharp as a cone. Didn't it hurt when touched?

And that nose, how much silicone had been implanted?

Her whole face was just like that of a snake spirit, and it looked so fake.

Xia Yanxi saw that Freya was sizing her up, and she felt a bit panicked, afraid that Freya would embarrass her in public.

However, Freya didn't do anything. She calmly withdrew her gaze and continued chatting and laughing with Bradley.

This attitude of ignoring her was more painful than being slapped in the face. Xia Yanxi's fingers slowly clenched into a fist, and there was anger and unwillingness in her eyes.

Why did she have to cower and be afraid to show her face and wasn't liked by men, while Freya lived a glorious and bright life and had a man who loved and doted on her so much?

They were both women and had once been sisters. Why was there such a big gap between them?

Xia Yanxi gritted her teeth and turned to look at the socialite beside her, saying coldly, "Do you like Bradley? Okay, I'll teach you what to do."

The socialite in front of her clearly looked like a spoiled young lady. The key was that she was still young and easy to be influenced.

Letting her deal with Freya, even if she couldn't cause much harm, she could at least give Freya a hard time.

Freya actually guessed that Xia Yanxi wouldn't let it go when she saw her.

Of course, she was also prepared to deal with whatever came her way.

"Guess what Xia Yanxi will do to me later." Freya ate the cake and watched as Xia Yanxi and the socialite left until they disappeared from the banquet hall before she spoke.

Bradley stroked her hair and curved his lips, saying, "Don't you already know?"

"Just guess." She knew, but she just wanted to test the telepathy between her and Bradley.

Bradley raised his eyebrows and slowly said, "What else can a stupid woman do except use those underhanded methods?"
