Chapter 187 Acting with them

Everyone could hear the sarcasm in the words.

Jiang Xirou’s face turned pale.

At this time, Jiang Xiwen smiled and said, "Grandpa, classmate Ye may have misunderstood. My brother and I just thought that my aunt's bracelet was very beautiful and wanted to appreciate it carefully, but we didn't expect... It doesn't matter. It's okay if my aunt doesn't want to."

"Yes," Jiang Xihao continued, "That's right, Auntie. Didn't you just say you wanted to give the bracelet to Miss Ye as a thank-you gift? How can you show it to her if you don't take it off so that Xiwen and I can check it carefully to see if there is any problem?"

Hearing this, Mr. Jiang's expression eased a lot: "So that's how it is."

"Sixiu, the kids don't mean any harm. Just take it out and let them have a look. I'll return it to you later! There are so many people watching, don't let them down."

This aroused the interest of the guests.

"What bracelet?"

"I don't know. I just thought they were really going to steal the bracelet, but I didn't expect it was just the kids being curious."

“It doesn’t hurt to take it out and have a look!”

…

Jiang Xirou pushed the wheelchair and tightened her grip on her hands little by little. She looked at her mother in a daze and took the bracelet off her wrist.

The next second, Jiang Xihao took it.

"it's beautiful!"

The moment he handed it to Jiang Xiwen, he loosened his grip and the emerald slipped out of his hand.

But no one heard the sound of the bracelet breaking.

Looking up again, Ye Jinmo caught the bracelet steadily.

She finally saw it clearly. If she couldn't get it, she would destroy it?

Then let them see today whether this bracelet can be destroyed!

Seeing that his plan had failed, Jiang Xihao's eyes flashed with sinisterness: "Miss Ye is quite skilled!"

Ye Jinmo raised her bracelet and said with a raised eyebrow: "This was given to me by Aunt Feng. If it falls, Doctor Jiang will feel bad too!"

The man nodded, his smile growing wider and wider, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Xiwen's face froze, his hand holding the bracelet still frozen in mid-air, he quickly suppressed his emotions: "You're talking about..."

As she spoke, she reached out to take the bracelet, but Ye Jinmo held it tightly and refused to let go.

"Doctor Jiang, it's easy to break the bracelet if you hold it like this. Let's find a table to put it flat, and then take a closer look."

Facing everyone's gazes, Jiang Xiwen could only curl his lips and agree.

The emerald bracelet was placed firmly in the center of the table.

Many guests came around and praised the bracelet, saying it was beautiful.

Jiang Xirou looked at Ye Jinmo with gratitude.

The girl would give her a reassuring look.

This eye contact changed in Jiang Xiwen's eyes.

What happened today was obviously Ye Jinmo protecting that bitch Jiang Xirou.

Otherwise, she would have gotten the bracelet long ago!

Since he dared to ruin her good deeds, she would make Ye Jinmo pay for it!

Mother Zhong was standing next to her daughter, unable to conceal the pride on her face.

When many noble ladies learned of their identities, they came forward and wanted to make friends with them.

For a moment, people gathered around Ye Jinmo.

Jiang Xiwen was pushed to the outer circle.

When Mr. Jiang saw her expression, a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on his face.

So impatient!

He glanced at the brother and sister and motioned for them to follow him.

Little did they know that the three people's leaving figures were captured by Ye Jinmo.

She squeezed out of the crowd and followed quietly.

There is a small garden at the back door of the hall, but there is no one there at the moment.

Jiang Xiwen was a little angry: "Grandpa, I like that bracelet very much!"

Master Jiang's cane hit the ground heavily, making a thumping sound: "Xiwen, when did you become so impetuous?"

She came back to her senses, lowered her head and pursed her lips.

Only then did I realize that I had lost my composure just now.

Jiang Xihao tried to smooth things over: "Grandpa, Wenwen really likes that bracelet, but she didn't expect Ye Jinmo to snatch it away and embarrass Wenwen in public. We can't let this go!"

Mr. Jiang nodded, looked at his grandson, then pulled out a small paper bag from his sleeve and put it in his hand.

"I heard that the child is close to the Ji family."

Jiang Xihao understood and wrapped it in paper.

Ye Jinmo was hiding not far away and couldn't hear what they were saying, but she saw the small paper bag.

It must be nothing good!

Back in the banquet hall, Mr. Jiang still had that kind smile on his face.

He pushed Ye Jinmo to the front of the crowd, pretended to thank her, and then pointed at his grandson.

"Jinmo, this is Xihao. You two just met. You two are young, so why don't you chat more?"

Everyone understood what he meant.

Mother Zhong, who was not far away, was a little unhappy. She reached out and pulled her daughter over, her rejection obvious.

Ye Jinmo let her pull her away from the crowd.

Mr. Jiang's face turned black in public, but he couldn't say anything.

Jiang Xihao curled the corners of his lips, picked up a glass of juice and walked towards Ye Jinmo.

"Miss Ye, don't mind what my grandfather said. I really want to be friends with you."

Ye Jinmo didn't answer.

"Is Miss Ye angry? My grandfather didn't mean anything else. Don't think too much. I have a girlfriend. The old man is just trying to match us up. This cup is my toast to you."

After saying this, he raised the wine glass in his left hand, and the bottom was filled with scarlet blood.

The people around looked at them.

Feeling Zhong Runda's gaze, Ye Jinmo took the juice, but did not drink it at all and put it aside.

"Master Jiang, your Jiang family wouldn't use the trick of urging guests to drink to force them to do something they don't want to do, right?"

When Jiang Xiwen saw Zhong Shaoqing coming over here, his face froze and he said quickly, "Of course not!"

At this time, Jiang Xiwen came over, took Ye Jinmo's arm, and said coquettishly: "Brother, don't scare her."

After saying that, Ye Jinmo was pulled by her to blend in with a bunch of rich ladies.

The servant considerately brought two cups of hot drinks.

"My brother is a straight man. Why would he drink juice in such a cold weather?" Jiang Xiwen said as he picked up a cup of hot drink and handed it to Ye Jinmo, "Drink something hot."

Ye Jinmo took it. The hot cocoa in the quilt exuded a rich aroma, but she still smelled a slight medicinal smell.

Tsk, old trick?

Before coming to the banquet, she knew that it was a Hongmen Banquet, but what she didn't expect was that Master Jiang was also involved.

But now thinking about it, it's strange. The people from the second branch were not welcomed, but a special banquet was held to thank the second branch's savior. This logic doesn't make sense.

Although she couldn't figure out why the Jiang family drugged her, as a qualified guest, she naturally had to accompany them to finish this show.

She looked not far away and saw Zhong Shaoqing coming towards her.

"Doctor Jiang, actually my eldest brother knew that the Jiang family wanted to specially invite me to a banquet, and he was very grateful. Before coming, he told me that he must toast you!"

Zhong Shaoqing was stunned for a moment and looked at his mischievous sister in confusion. When did he say he wanted to have a drink with Jiang Xiwen?

Forget it, it’s your own sister and you should spoil her yourself. Whatever she says is what counts!

Jiang Xiwen was flattered. Seeing Zhong Shaoqing holding the red wine, he immediately picked up a glass of champagne from the table next to him.

"Mr. Zhong, I toast to you!"

While the two were talking, Ye Jinmo took a step back calmly and reached out to move the hot drink behind Jiang Xiwen.
