Zheng Xiyao unconsciously took a step forward.

"Arthur, what are you doing? Why don't you come over?" Freya next to Hawke waved to them.

Arthur obviously showed off: "Sorry, my friend is looking for me, so I have to leave first."

Zheng Xiyao lowered her eyes and picked up the champagne on the table.

The system gloated: [I feel that the male protagonist did this on purpose. 】

[So what? There is no place for me next to him, so what does it matter whether I go or not? 】

She glanced at the man who looked like a star holding the moon, gathered her thoughts, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Hey, who is this?" A gorgeously dressed woman walked towards her. Zheng Xiyao looked at the person who came and felt familiar, but couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

"Hello." She responded calmly.

"It seems that Miss Zheng doesn't remember me, but I remember the interesting wedding at Lyles Star two years ago." The woman was very excited, as if she had caught something.

Hearing this, Zheng Xiyao stared coldly at the woman with malicious intentions, and the people around her began to whisper in their direction.

She frowned at the wine glass in her hand, crossed her arms across her chest, and asked slowly, "Who are you?"

"You!" the furious woman gritted her teeth and said, "What do you have to be proud of? How dare you come here without thinking about what you did back then? Why do you think your Zheng family is the Zheng family that Lyles can only cover the sky with? What? Don’t even think about it, the person you abandoned can now make your entire Zheng family disappear with just a move of his fingers. "

Zheng Xiyao curled her lips and said in a cold tone: "But what does this have to do with you?"

"..."

"How is this going?"

"Yes, is Mrs. Lanchester quarreling with Miss Zheng?"

"They are so rude on such an important occasion."

The surrounding comments made the woman named Lanchester furious. She suddenly grabbed Zheng Xiyao's arm and said viciously: "You bitch, you are so shameless. I'm going to teach you a lesson." She raised her hand to hit her. .

Zheng Xiyao narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "Looking for death."

Then he neatly grabbed the woman's left hand with his backhand, stretched his right foot forward, and pinned the woman's legs. With his other hand, he grabbed the woman's right hand and pinned it firmly behind her back.

Mrs. Lanchester was pinned down on the dining table in embarrassment by her, unable to fight back.

"Ah!" The people around were shocked when they saw this scene. Unexpectedly, Zheng Xiyao could suppress Mrs. Lanchester easily.

What's the key here? This is the birthday party of the head of state. She, a fallen daughter of the Zheng family, dares to do something in front of so many dignitaries. This is not ordinary.

[Host, awesome!] The system cheered from the side.

[That’s right, don’t think about who I am. I was a person who survived the catastrophe. I killed countless mutant beasts, but such a weakling dared to jump in front of me. 】

Zheng Xiyao didn't take Mrs. Lanchester seriously at all. If this woman hadn't yelled in front of her when she was in a bad mood, she wouldn't have taken action.

[However, host, the situation is not good now. 】System reminder.

Only then did Zheng Xiyao realize that her actions had become the focus of the banquet. Everyone was watching her.

Zheng Xiyao didn't pay attention, but was looking for something. When she saw the man, she didn't know it was her fault. She felt a smile flashed in Hawke's eyes.

When she was still doubting, Mrs. Lanchester broke away while she wasn't paying attention and ran towards the male protagonist Hawke.

"Your Excellency, save me." As if seeing a life-saving straw, the woman wanted to get closer to Hawke, but was stopped by the guards around her.

But Lanchester seemed not to have seen it and struggled forward: "She, don't you remember? That...well." Hawke raised his hand and ordered someone to cover Mrs. Lanchester's mouth, completely ignoring it. The woman begged and turned to look at Zheng Xiyao who was standing not far away.

"Come here." The man said solemnly.

Zheng Xiyao was stunned and didn't react for a moment. She subconsciously looked around, thinking that the man was comparing himself to others.

"What are you waiting for, my Miss Zheng." The male protagonist frowned impatiently.

Only then did Zheng Xiyao confirm that Hawke was really calling her.

She hesitated and refused to step forward, [System, do you think I should go there? 】

[You have no choice now as host in this situation. 】The system answers.

That's true, now even if she doesn't go, she will be considered 'famous' at this banquet.

Hawke looked at the woman's hesitation in amusement. This was the first time he saw Zheng Xiyao's timid look.

Zheng Xiyao walked into Hawke slowly, and when Hawke stretched out his hand, she took it without hesitation.

She turned her head and asked, "What's wrong with you today? You're so talkative." She ruined his banquet, and the hero actually defended her.

"What do you think?" Hawke asked softly, "My fiancée."

Zheng Xiyao was speechless. I didn't expect him to have this benefit from being this 'fake fiancée'.

Behind her, Freya stared at Hawke, who was always serious and unsmiling, in disbelief. She asked Arthur next to her in shock: "What is their relationship?"

Arthur: "Should I say ex-girlfriend?"

"Ex-girlfriend? Could it be...?"

"You are right, it is that person." Arthur confirmed Freya's guess.

Freya stared with her big beautiful eyes, with the same expression as before. Arthur saw that Freya was very curious and her body was already approaching Zheng Xiyao unconsciously. He decisively pulled her back and said, "You'd better not provoke her. That woman can't even deal with Hawke."

Freya was even more curious after hearing Arthur's persuasion.

At this time, Hawke waved the guard to let go of Mrs. Lanchester.

Mrs. Lanchester stared blankly at Hawke holding Zheng Xiyao's hand, and murmured: "You guys?"

Hawke deliberately pulled Zheng Xiyao down in front of him and said calmly to the ashen-faced woman: "I asked her to apologize to you for what happened just now. Can Madam forgive Yaoyao for her rudeness?"

"No, no. It was me who was rude first, I..." Mrs. Lanchester was timid and helpless.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Xiyao immediately interrupted: "No need to apologize, I won't accept it. Let's go." The woman was stunned, but she didn't expect Zheng Xiyao to give up humiliating her.

Hawke squeezed her hand, "Really let her go like this?"

"I have already taught her a lesson before you took action. We are clean." Zheng Xiyao replied seriously.

"You really have a clear distinction between grievances and grievances." He paused for a moment and continued: "What about between us?" The man looked at her seriously and asked.

Zheng Xiyao stared at her innocent purple eyes, "Aren't we already clean with each other, Your Excellency?" The man

Staring at her deeply, his eyes were deep and dark, with a strong emotion.

"When did we get clean?"

"What?"

"fiancée……"

"Forehead…"

Zheng Xiyao looked at the man's expression and had a bad feeling in her heart.
