Man, what's wrong with you?

The party, which had been bustling just seconds ago, suddenly turned silent the moment Chester and Sherry showed up.
They made their way through the crowd with everyone's attention focused on them.
All of a sudden, people began to whisper, admiring the woman who was accompanying Chester.
She was wearing a simple white dress. Without even saying a word, she managed to easily draw everyone's attention toward
her.
On the other side of the table, Jeremy was holding a glass of red wine. As he took a sip of it, his eyes lightly swept over Sherry.
For so long, he had known how beautiful she really was, but she had been hiding it the entire time. For that reason, he almost
forgot that she was once the most brilliant among all of these women around him.
As he looked at them, Jeremy thought that Sherry should have been in his arms, not Chester's.
Moreover, what was she wearing? Her back was almost exposed. Was she aware that all of the men here were ogling her right
now?
"It's that woman again!" Jessie exclaimed, gritting her teeth.
As she said those words, Jessie looked at Sherry in disgust and thought to herself, 'What the heck? Sherry has altered that red
dress. I thought she would be making a fool of herself. Damn it!"
Just as Jeremy was about to walk up to Sherry, someone beside him called him, "Jeremy."
When he turned to check who it was, Jeremy saw that it was a business partner, someone older than him and a good friend of
his father. Given that he couldn't just ignore him, all he could do was look at Sherry from a distance and he decided not to
approach her.
Since earlier that morning, Steve had been waiting for Sherry and just passing time. Just when he thought that Sherry would
break her promise and not show up, she suddenly appeared.
While Chester was busy greeting other people, Sherry was left standing under the light. Taking this opportunity, Steve went over
and called out to her, "Miss Xu."

As soon as she heard his voice, Sherry instantly knew who it without having to look. So, she helplessly put on a smile and turned
her head to look at Steve who was walking toward her. "Mr. Song, happy birthday to you,"
Sherry greeted him, wearing a vibrant smile on her face. Although she felt rather uneasy when she was around him, she didn't
really dislike him. At the very least, she felt like it was much easier to face him than to face her husband, Jeremy.
"Thank you. I haven't seen you in so long, so I was starting to think you wouldn't come. To be honest, I wasn't expecting you to
show up again. I'm so glad that you made it," Steve said with a smile.
Looking her up and down, he couldn't help but praise her sincerely, "You look so stunning and so different right now. So much so
that I almost didn't recognize you."
To which, Sherry replied, "Thank you." In fact, she was used to receiving compliments like this before.
"Those women have become run-of-the-mill the second you came in. Miss Xu, I swear that I'm only telling the truth." Taking a
step forward, Steve moved a little closer toward her.
Seeing this, Sherry calmly took a step back and answered lightly, "Is that so? Thank you for your praise."
Although her reply was a little perfunctory, Steve didn't seem to be embarrassed at all. When he was about to say something, a
crowd of people flocked toward him, holding a glass of wine in their hands. "Happy birthday," they said in unison.
Steve expressed his gratitude to them one by one, intending to continue his conversation with Sherry. Unfortunately for him,
Sherry quietly retreated to one side, trying not to get noticed by the other people.
The more people gathered around him, the more difficult it was for him to leave them. He could see that Sherry was getting
farther and farther away from him. He couldn't possibly leave these guests behind to chase her. Because of this, he decided to
just look for her later.
Suddenly, someone grabbed a hold of Sherry's arm. When she looked up, she found that it was Chester who was standing next
to her, and she held his arm on naturally.
"I'm going to introduce you to some of the top planners in the advertising industry. You can learn a lot from them." After that, he
led her into the crowd.
Feeling quite grateful to him, Sherry said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

"You're welcome. My company is expecting more satisfying plans from you. So, you need to study hard."
In her opinion, she had been extremely lucky to meet such a good boss.
Chester was acquainted with a lot of influential people, and he took his time introducing them to her one by one. However, she
could hardly remember all of those people. After a few greetings, those people began to show deep smile. "Is Miss Xu the
general manager of the advertising department of SZ Advertising Company's head office? How young and promising!"
Hearing this, Sherry gave a modest smile. "It's an honor to serve the company."
"Mr. Gu seldom brings any female partner to a party. I thought he would come alone today as well. Miss Xu is the first one he has
ever brought along," an older woman said with a smile.
"Mr. Gu and Miss Xu are the most eye-catching couple at the party. Are you two seeing each other?" another man couldn't help
asking.
Feeling a little embarrassed, Sherry shot Chester a glance and found that he looked the same as usual and wasn't fazed by it
whatsoever. When she shifted her gaze somewhere else, her eyes fell to the man standing in the crowd. It was Jeremy.
Out of everyone, he was the most brilliant man here. No matter where he went, he was always like the moon surrounded by a
myriad of stars. However, he was together with Jessie now, who was doing everything she could to destroy their marriage.
After casting him a quick glance, Sherry immediately looked away.
As Chester was making his way, he noticed Jeremy standing in the crowd.
On the other side, the expression on Jeremy's face was cold and his eyes were fixated on Sherry. However, Jessie's soft hand
was gently resting on his arm.
Although Chester was still busy greeting everyone, his mind was already made up. He had no intention of denying or explaining
the things they said to him.
"Well, Sherry is quite a capable woman. In fact, even the clients admire her a lot."
Since Chester didn't deny it, Sherry couldn't say anything more.
He didn't deny it and even described her in such an intimate manner. Based from that, the people concluded that there was a
good chance that Chester was now dating Sherry.

From the corner of his eye, Chester saw how the look on Jeremy's face became colder and colder. Seeing this, he felt so
satisfied that he couldn't help but smile.
Chester had witnessed how Jeremy forcibly held her in his arms under the company building, and now he was with another
woman.
Jeremy was a master of love. So, in order not to allow Jeremy to hurt Sherry anymore, Chester opted not deny those people's
speculations and suspicions.
Jessie snorted and remarked, "I always knew that Sherry is not a good woman. She just casually hooked up with a rich man like
that."
Those words sounded especially harsh in Jeremy's ears. So, he tightly pursed his thin lips and didn't humor her with any
response. Jessie, on the other hand, simply kept on looking at Sherry with such disdain.
"Mr. Gu must have no idea what kind of person Sherry is. Huh, look, she is throwing herself to Chester again. She only likes to
be around rich and powerful men," Jessie commented in a sarcastic tone.
"So many men are ogling her! Doesn't she have any self-restraint?" Jessie couldn't comprehend why these men enjoyed looking
at Sherry so much. In fact, even Jeremy himself had his eyes glued to her the entire time.
"Shut up!" Jeremy's patience had worn thin.
This caught Jessie completely off guard causing what she was about to say to get stuck in her throat. She was about to say
something even more ironic, but Jeremy stopped her from doing so.
In the face of other people's praises, Sherry kept a decent smile on her face. When she saw the piercing gaze Jeremy had on
her, all she could do was look at him from the corner of her eyes.
Knowing that Jeremy's eyes were fixated on her, Sherry told herself in her heart that there was no need for her to care about
what he thought and she should just continue doing her own work.
Chester brought her over to introduce her to many business partners. To show her gratitude, Sherry tried her best to remember
the faces and characteristics of everyone she met. After all, she knew that she still had a long way to go in the business.
She was still quite young. If it weren't for Chester bringing her here with him, who would possibly know who she was right now?

Seeing this, Jeremy clenched his fist even tighter, to such an extent that his knuckles were beginning to turn pale.
He was not used to seeing that smile on Sherry's face. Could it be because Chester was standing right next to her that she felt
that she was dignified as well?
In the eyes of everyone else present, she was mistaken as Chester's woman.
But in truth, Sherry actually belonged to Jeremy and should be obediently standing next to him instead.
At this moment, a melodious music suddenly reverberated. Then, the lights inside the hall were dimmed, and the purple lights
overhead were lit up.
The lights were swirling overhead, casting soft shadows onto the ground.
"Beautiful lady, may I have the honor of inviting you to dance with me?" Right then and there, Chester took two steps away from
her. Slightly bowing his head, he put his hand in front of her and asked her to dance.
Needless to say, Sherry could not refuse. With a picture perfect smile on her face, she accepted his request, and then Chester
took her by the hand and led her into the middle of the dance floor.
Every movement Sherry made caught Jeremy's eyes. He watched as she danced with Chester; and seeing him put his hand on
her waist made him feel so irritated.
After putting down the glass of wine in his hand, Jeremy grabbed a hold of Jessie's hand and pulled her into the dance floor as
well.
Taken by surprise, Jessie felt a little nervous. Clinging tightly onto Jeremy, she realized that he seemed to be apathetic toward
her these past couple of days, leaving her at such a loss as to what she should do. Just now, she was actually about to ask him
to take her to dance floor, yet he beat her to it.
Although he saw how Jessie was leaning closer to him, Jeremy didn't pay her any attention at all. He didn't reciprocate her gaze,
and instead, he simply jumped into dance floor, trying to get closer to Sherry.
"You dance quite well," Chester remarked, looking down at Sherry.
Sherry's movements were somewhat stiff at first, but after hearing him say those words, she was able to relax. And as a result,
her hand, which was resting on his shoulder, finally eased up. "It's been so long since the last time I did something like this. I

hope I can dance in tune with the music."
She gave him a playful smile. At this time, there was no one around, and only Chester could have a good look at her expression.
"Then, you have to be careful. If you step on your boss' foot, I'm not sure if he will be angry or not," Chester joked.
"Lucky for me. According to the contract, you can't fire me just like that," Sherry replied. In such an occasion, Sherry was not as
reserved as she usually was with Chester before. In fact, the atmosphere was very relaxing for her.
From the corner of his eye, Chester caught a glimpse of Jeremy and Jessie, who were getting closer to them little by little. So, he
stepped aside with Sherry in his arms and said, "Shall we try some new moves?"
Sherry's eyes widened in surprise. After all, they were now in the simplest and most common steps. Apart from that, there were
too many people on the dance floor, which would make it inconvenient for them to try some other moves.
"Wait a minute."
As soon as she said those words, her hand was suddenly grabbed by someone. Before she could even react, she was pulled
away with great force by someone. After staggering for a moment, she fell into someone else's arms.
When Chester reached out his hand to hold Sherry's, someone grabbed his hand instead. After that, he found that a different
woman had been pulled into his arms.
After taking a closer look, Chester saw a woman wearing heavy make-up. Then, he recognized this woman as the one who was
standing right next to Jeremy earlier. If his memory served him right, her name was Jessie.
