Temporary Husband: The Pregnant Wife Runs Away

Tang Xin tried really hard to blend in with the environment here, but the socialites who were gathered together showed a disgusted look and moved elsewhere whenever they saw her approaching, making it very obvious that they didn’t welcome her.

After several attempts, Tang Xin’s initial fighting spirit was reduced to naught.

Feeling out of place, she looked in the direction in which Li Yunshen had gone before turning her attention to her second brother. When her second brother, who was chatting happily with Lu Feng and his daughter, happened to look over, she raised her hand to let him know that she wanted to make a move first. However, her second brother didn’t seem to figure out what she was trying to say and simply waved his hand to brush her off.

Just as she was hesitating over whether to leave or not, a friendly hand reached out to her, “Hello, Mrs. Li. My name is Mary, nice to meet you!”

It was rare for someone to be friendly toward her. Tang Xin smiled and held out her hand, “Hello, I’m Tang Xin, just call me Xinxin.”

“Um, Xinxin, we’re playing a little game over there, would you like to join us?” Mary pointed to the artificial lake behind the flowers.

Tang Xin’s eyes lit up as she was still worrying about how she could pass the time, “Can I?”

“Of course! Follow me!”

Tang Xin thought that this was an opportunity for her to regain confidence, but she did not see the insidious smile on Mary’s face when she turned around…

On the shore of the sparkling lake, there were several beautifully dressed women gathered together talking about fashion. Once they saw Tang Xin and Mary walking over, they immediately stopped talking.

“Mary, when did you get to know this girl-next-door?” The woman in a red open-backed dress was the first to speak.

“Hello everyone, my name is Tang Xin, do you mind if I join you?” Before Mary introduced her, Tang Xin did a self-introduction, trying hard to look natural and poised.

Her second brother was right. To stand next to Li Yunshen, she had to first of all make herself worthy of him. She could no longer be indifferent towards everything like she used to be.

“Whoa! Why does this name sound familiar? Do you ladies have any idea?” The woman in the red dress turned back and asked the others.

The women shook their heads and looked at Tang Xin at the same time.

“The president of Li Enterprise has just announced the good news, of course it sounds familiar.” Mary came up and pretended to smooth things over.

“Oh! That’s right! It’s her!” The women came to a realization, but then their eyes turned into daggers and turned to Tang Xin.

Because of the different environment she had lived in since she was young, Tang Xin was much more sensitive than the average person. She knew that there was the usual mockery in those eyes, and when she saw the fake smile on Mary’s face, she suddenly understood what was going on.

She gave a faint smile and said, “I’m sorry, I suddenly remembered that I’ve got something on and can’t play games with you anymore.”

“Eh! What’s the hurry!” Seeing her leaving, Mary quickly held her back and asked the other women, “Where were we in the game?”

“The part where the lunatic escaped and was caught by the doctor!” a woman said loudly.

“Haha… would a lunatic be called a lunatic if she knew how to be obedient?” another woman laughed.

“Mrs. Li, since you are here, it means that you want to join us, so how about you acting as the mental patient this round?” the woman in the red dress mocked.

Tang Xin’s face was getting more pale and her fists were already clenched.

She knew from the first sentence that these people were picking on her, including Mary, who had initially showed kindness towards her. She guessed she must have been instigated by the party host tonight?

She had already lifted her heel and moved to retreat, pretending that she hadn’t come here, but the hidden stubbornness in her didn’t allow it!
