Chapter 796: The Couple’s Fight

Tang Ruge stood rooted to the ground in a daze as everyone stared at her. She bit her lip so hard that it bled, but she still had to remain calm and maintain her last shred of dignity.

At this moment, Jin Yan gradually reacted. Tang Ruge had invited him to Li City not to visit the art exhibition but to use him to expose the scandal of Qiao Xi plagiarizing Han Yin.

Tang Ruge was unwilling to be the bad guy, so she thought of using him as her tool. If this was true, he would not be afraid of offending anyone. However, who would have thought that Qiao Xi was Han Yin? He had just criticized his idol in public.

Jin Yan could not help but be puzzled. He suddenly felt that this daughter of the Tang family, who was known as the top socialite in the capital, seemed to be very scheming. She was not as gentle and harmless as she looked on the surface.

On the other side, Carter caught up to Qiao Xi. “Han Yin, are you unhappy? Is it because of Tang Ruge?”

Qiao Xi shook her head. Actually, she had nothing to be angry about. After all, the person who would lose face was Tang Ruge.

Carter was very angry. “I heard that Tang Ruge is a socialite from the capital. She’s really detestable. We should get the person in charge to call the police and arrest her. Let’s see if she still dares to slander you in the future!”

Qiao Xi said helplessly, “There’s no need. Even if she’s captured, she’ll have many excuses. In the end, this can only be considered a misunderstanding. Moreover, she didn’t affect my reputation.”

“That’s right. She was clearly the one who planned it, but after the matter was exposed, she still managed to escape unscathed. She’s really capable!”

As soon as Carter finished speaking, she raised her eyes and looked at Qiao Xi with a serious expression. “Han Yin, I came here this time to ask you if you’re willing to join the International Oil Painting Organization. It’s actually just a title.

“I know you’re used to being free and don’t like to be tied down. Don’t worry, I won’t arrange any work for you. You just have to appear at the oil painting exhibition every year.”

Qiao Xi refused without the slightest hesitation. She was not interested.

Carter hesitated for a moment before continuing, “If Mr. Han Ye agrees to join the International Oil Painting Organization, will you consider it?”

Qiao Xi: “??”

She blinked in confusion. “Han Ye joined?”

Seeing that there was room for negotiation, Carter immediately explained, “I’ve already spoken to Han Ye on the phone yesterday. He said that if you’re willing to join, he’ll join! I promise that I won’t arrange any work for you. You don’t have to attend any events or meetings. You just have to register with the International Oil Painting Organization.

“Whether the two of you join or not depends on you now, so I specially came from overseas to look for you.”

Qiao Xi was silent for a short while before a trace of a smile flashed past the corners of her eyes. “Alright, since he said so, then get him to personally come look for me.”

Carter’s expression was subtle. Weren’t Han Ye and Han Yin husband and wife? If the couple wanted to communicate, why were they asking an outsider like her to deliver the message?

Han Ye had already said that as long as Han Yin joined, he would join. He always put his wife first, but Han Yin’s behavior was very strange. She seemed to be very distant from her husband. Did the couple quarrel?

After all, Carter was an experienced woman. It was normal for young couples to quarrel. It was just that a cold war would hurt their relationship after a long time. Moreover, the two of them were so compatible. It would be a pity if they broke up just like that.

Hence, like an old mother, Carter asked with a worried expression, “Han Yin, did you and Han Ye quarrel?”

Hearing Carter’s words, Qiao Xi was even angrier. Gu Zheng, this bastard, told others that they were husband and wife, yet he hid it from her.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Hence, she said angrily, “Yes!”

Carter looked enlightened. “Did he bully you?”

It seemed that Han Ye must have done something to let Han Yin down. Otherwise, Han Ye would not be so ingratiating with Han Yin and she would not be so angry with him.

The flames of rage burned fiercely in Qiao Xi’s heart as she bit her lip. “He did bully me. He’s too evil!”

Carter patted her chest and promised, “Don’t be angry. I’ll go look for him now. I’ll definitely get him to apologize to you personally!”

With that, Carter hurriedly found Gu Zheng and sighed. “Han Ye!”

Gu Zheng smiled. “She must have agreed.”

The air was silent for a few seconds. Carter looked troubled. “What happened between you and Han Yin? What did you do to her?”

Gu Zheng frowned and pursed his thin lips.
