Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

Chapter 165: The Confrontation between Mr. Huo’s Ex-wife and Miss Tang

The next night, at the charity dinner, dazzling lights poured down, illuminating the entire banquet hall. The crystal chandeliers reflected millions of points of light, like a galaxy falling into the mortal world.

The red carpet was rolled out, and guests gathered on both sides, all of them elegantly dressed and prominent figures in the city. At this moment, a charming figure slowly walked into the center of the venue, attracting countless attention.

Tang Xiaqing took Huo Chenjun's arm and walked into the venue like a perfect couple.

Tang Xiaqing wore a custom-made haute couture dress in an almost mysterious dark green color. The velvet texture glowed with a dim luster under the light, perfectly outlining her graceful figure.

The hem of her skirt slowly spread out from her waist, covering her legs just right, leaving only the diamond-studded high heels on her ankles exposed, adding a touch of nobility and reserve.

Tang Xiaqing chose a simple and elegant pearl style for her necklace, which complements the overall shape. There are not too many complicated accessories, but it is enough to show Tang Xiaqing's elegant temperament.

The two walked into the venue with elegant and calm steps. Tang Xiaqing's smile was gentle with a hint of mystery, while Huo Chenjun still had a solemn expression.

Huo Chenjun wore a black striped suit with a dark tie, maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor.

After a while, President Zhang of the bank came over to say hello. While Huo Chenjun was negotiating with the bank president, Tang Xiaqing walked to the window, looked at the bustling city view outside, and enjoyed this moment of tranquility.

At this moment, Ning Tingbei, Huo Chenjun's ex-wife, walked to Tang Xiaqing with light steps.

Ning Tingbei smiled, but her eyes hid jealousy that was hard to conceal. She said to Tang Xiaqing, "You are Huo Chenjun's new love, right? Haha, you are young and beautiful, no wonder he favors you so much." This sentence seems to be a compliment, but in fact it is sharp.

Tang Xiaqing turned to face Ning Tingbei with a faint smile on her face. Her answer was both polite and kept the proper distance: "Ms. Ning, you are too kind. I am Huo Chenjun's girlfriend."

"He likes you now only because you are young. In a few years, when you are old and ugly, he will still not want you." Ning Tingbei changed the subject.

Tang Xiaqing quickly hit back: "Ms. Ning, time does leave its mark on everyone, but I believe that a person's value lies in their inner cultivation and character, not the superficial appearance."

Tang Xiaqing paused and continued, "On the contrary, I think what you just said reflects the worries and anxieties deep in your heart."

Zhang Yueyue stood aside. As Ning Tingbei's friend, she gently patted Ning Tingbei's arm.

She said in a comforting yet slightly disdainful tone, "Sister Ning, this woman looks so much younger than Mr. Huo. You can tell at a glance that she's just relying on her youth and beauty to attract attention. I'm sure she's used a lot of shady tactics. After all, you and Mr. Huo have a deep emotional foundation for many years. I believe he's only been deceived for a while. It won't be long before he returns to you. Don't worry."

"Where are you from? She's talking nonsense, are you following her? Is anyone of any quality allowed to attend this charity dinner?" Tang Xiaqing frowned and said forcefully, "Just so you know, when I met Mr. Huo, he was already single. Your words just now were slanderous to me, and I reserve the right to sue you."

Zhang Yueyue was frightened by Tang Xiaqing's aura. She originally thought that Tang Xiaqing was just a young woman with little knowledge.

"You...don't think that your eloquence will be useful. I have known him for so many years, and I tell you, when Huo Chenjun abandoned you, he didn't even look at you twice." Ning Tingbei looked unhappy.

"What you just said seems to be based on a negative assumption. I have no reason to believe that Huo Chenjun would be so superficial. I know him better than anyone else."

Ning Tingbei was so angry that he poured the wine glass in his hand directly at Tang Xiaqing, trying to splash it on her dress.

Tang Xiaqing quickly stepped back and the water only splashed on her arms.

Tang Xiaqing certainly wouldn't give up. She maintained unprecedented calmness, raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, but she replied calmly: "If you really can't control your mouth, then you should consider whether you should shut it up!!"

After saying that, Tang Xiaqing picked up the cake on the table next to her and smeared the cream on it on Ning Tingbei's face and mouth.

"You!" Ning Tingbei's eyes widened with anger. "What kind of character do you have?"

"One's quality also depends on who you are dealing with. You were the one who poured the wine on me first, and then, do you expect me to swallow my anger?" Tang Xiaqing asked calmly.
