Chapter 1082
The crowd subconsciously retreated to both sides, spontaneously making way for a narrow passage.
Shen Ci hid in the shadows of the crowd, her eyes locked on Qiu Keying—she was supported by her parents on both sides, her tears had already blurred her makeup, her shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and even her departing back was wrapped in sorrow that could not be dissolved.
At this moment, Shen Ci didn't feel as happy as she imagined in her heart.
The Li family suffered such a farce and lost all face, which was certainly gratifying, but anyone with a discerning eye could see clearly that the one hurt most deeply by this storm was undoubtedly Qiu Keying.
She planned everything today with full expectation, and prepared to welcome the important moment of her life with full joy, but...
She didn't do anything wrong, but she misplaced her sincerity, was innocently involved in this muddy water, and forcibly endured such a heavy blow, swallowing the pain that no one could understand.
With the departure of the Qiu family, those guests who came because of the Qiu family's invitation also consciously and silently turned and left.
Li Wanchang had been in the Longcheng business world for half his life, dominating the wind and clouds. When had he ever suffered such a great humiliation?
But even though anger surged in his chest, almost burning him to ashes, at this moment he could only forcibly suppress it, his face full of embarrassment, and he bowed and apologized to the few guests remaining at the scene one after another.
"I'm really sorry, let everyone see a joke."
"Sorry, excuse me..."
"Sorry."
At this moment, he couldn't say anything else, could only hang his head, his jaw tight, and kept saying sorry. He didn't even dare to look up and make eye contact with others.
It was really too shameful!
The guests also knew the measure, no one would come forward to say anything else at this moment, at most they would comfort him in a low voice, and most people chose to be silent and left in a hurry.
Shen Ci also left the banquet hall with the crowd.
Soon, only the Li family and Lin Biqi holding the child were left in the banquet hall.
At this time, Lin Biqi had already unloaded her disguise, standing there expressionlessly, very satisfied with everything today.
Next, the whole thing would spread throughout Longcheng in a short time, and for her, this was just a beginning.
"Are you satisfied?"
Li Xiao slowly raised his head. The look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Biqi was quenched with ice and wrapped in bone-eroding ruthlessness. If it weren't for a trace of reason, he would have wanted to tear this woman who ruined everything he had to pieces on the spot.
Lin Biqi raised her eyebrows slightly, disdain and mockery that she didn't bother to hide surging between her brows. Without the onlookers, she didn't need to pretend anymore, and all her emotions were written directly on her face.
"Do you still remember how this child came to be?" Lin Biqi looked at him and asked in a calm tone.
Li Xiao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "You took advantage of me when I was drunk..."
"Stop deceiving yourself!"
Before he could finish, Lin Biqi suddenly raised her volume and interrupted him sharply.
Then she sneered and pierced his lie word by word: "That night, you were conscious at all! You knew clearly what happened! If you were really dead drunk and unconscious, with your physique, how could I have done whatever I wanted?"
"You even called my name. Li Xiao, you knew everything, you knew everything, you just didn't dare to admit it, and didn't want to take responsibility!"
Li Xiao opened his eyes wide, staring at Lin Biqi, the anger in his eyes almost spraying out, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't refute a word.
But Lin Biqi was not afraid of his anger at all, and continued to speak on her own, her tone hiding a bit of desolate accusation: "The next day, you ordered a box of contraceptive pills for me, threw me alone in the hotel room, and left without looking back."
"Brother Li Xiao, I like you, I liked you since I was a child. But I am not garbage that you can throw away at will after playing with me. If you had even a trace of affection for me, even a trace of pity, I wouldn't have reached this step today, and I wouldn't have done anything to hurt you."
"But you didn't. In your eyes, I was nothing at all, you even felt I was dirty after sleeping with me!"
At this last sentence, Lin Biqi was almost hysterical. She had red eyes, but held her head high, refusing to let tears roll down.
She swore that she would never shed another tear for Li Xiao in this life.
"Get out!"
Li Xiao was completely annoyed, the veins on his forehead jumping, his voice full of violence.
He couldn't guarantee that if Lin Biqi continued to stay here, he would do something out of control.
The child who had just quieted down was frightened by this roar and started crying again. The crying was soft, attracting Li Wanchang and Mrs. Li to look over subconsciously.
Lin Biqi, however, remained calm and composed. She patted the child in her arms gently, her movements gentle, completely different from the hysterical look just now.
Then, she slowly took out a pacifier from her bag and placed it gently on the dining table beside her.
Seeing this, Li Wanchang frowned fiercely and questioned unkindly: "What are you doing?"
"Uncle, don't be nervous," Lin Biqi scanned the few people in front of her indifferently and said softly: "To dispel your doubts, I'll leave this pacifier for you. If you want to do a paternity test, you can take this pacifier and Li Xiao to an agency for testing."
After saying that, she held the child and walked forward slowly.
When passing by Li Xiao, her footsteps paused slightly. Even if it was just a short stay, she could clearly feel the hidden anger emanating from Li Xiao, almost swallowing her.
She tilted her head slightly, her red lips parted, and she spat out four words lightly: "Happy engagement."
As the words fell, she no longer looked at the angry and incompetent Li family of three, held the child with the posture of a winner, and walked out of the banquet hall with her head held high without looking back.
Accompanied by the banquet hall door closing gently, a crisp and loud slap sounded suddenly in the empty hall.
"Pa!"
Li Xiao was hit by this slap and turned his head suddenly. A clear finger mark appeared on his cheek instantly, burning with pain. The next second, he heard Li Wanchang's reprimand, suppressing monstrous anger, shaking the entire hall: "Good job!"
"Oh, don't hit your son, he didn't know!"
Mrs. Li was heartbroken when she saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to check Li Xiao's cheek: "Are you okay, son."
"And you!"
As a result, Li Wanchang roared at his wife again: "You knew, didn't I tell you to handle this matter well? How did you handle it?"
"Now she has made such an absurd thing, our Li family's face is about to be lost. How can I, Li Wanchang, in the future..."
Halfway through, Li Wanchang suddenly choked.
His whole person was flushed, his eyes wide, the veins on his neck bulging, as if he had been choked by something, and his breathing became stagnant.
