In the second half of the year, her music entertainment company was finally established. The artists signed were all selected by her personally. One of them was a singing star who was not well-known for the time being but would become a big hit in the next few years.
The other is a very talented and hard-working songwriter.
The company was handed over to professional staff, and she continued to focus on research projects in the laboratory.
This year passed quickly and she earned tens of millions.
The only regret is that Lu Mianmian has forgotten a lot of previous knowledge due to amnesia and cannot take part in this year's college entrance examination. She can only study while running her restaurant.
A week before the Chinese New Year, Jian Sining and Chi Ye were preparing to get officially engaged, and the wedding venue was arranged to be at Jiangcheng Hotel.
Although it was not as grand as a wedding, the Chi family still invited several heavyweight witnesses to attend.
Zhuang Ruyue also prepared a very precious bracelet for Jian Si Ning. It was an imperial green jadeite bracelet that the Chi family specially passed down to the eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest house.
In addition to the bracelet, many engagement gifts according to custom were also prepared, which gave Jian Sining enough dignity.
What made Jian Si Ning feel ashamed was that, apart from a few close friends, he did not invite any relatives.
Not only did she not invite those relatives, she also deliberately concealed the fact of her engagement to avoid unnecessary trouble.
But what she didn't expect was that, even though Jian Sining had kept it a secret, the news still leaked out. When the engagement party was almost halfway through, her uncle's family, as well as Jian's uncle and aunt all came.
"Jian Si Ning, you are our Jian family's daughter after all. Why didn't you even invite your uncles, aunts, and other elders from your natal family to your engagement today? Are you as bad as me?" The third uncle of the Jian family said in a sarcastic tone as soon as he entered the door.
"From the day I severed ties with my parents, I no longer have any elders from my mother's side." Jian Sining answered calmly without any disturbance.
"From what you said, it seems that you don't intend to acknowledge us as your elders?" Uncle Jian's words contained a hint of warning.
"You are not worthy to be my elders!" Jian Si Ning was merciless and she didn't care how others viewed her.
My aunt was like a firecracker, pointing at Jian Si Ning and cursing: "Jian Si Ning, you unfilial daughter, are you still a human being? You killed your own father and sent your own mother to jail, and you dare to get engaged here secretly? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Uncle San's family was not to be outdone, and they told those who didn't know the inside story about Jian Si Ning's "evil heart and dog lungs" with saliva flying.
Suddenly, the originally warm and festive engagement party turned into a hotbed for gossip.
"Ningning, don't be angry! I'll go and handle it..." Chi Ye comforted Jian Si Ning, then turned around and walked towards the troublemakers.
Jian Si Ning held him back: "Don't worry about it, they are coming for me, I will deal with it."
She took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart. It is said that there is no gain without pain. These people came here to make trouble just to make money.
"Since you have chosen me to be a family, if there are any troubles, we should face them together."
Jian Si Ning smiled and said, "Okay."
When they saw Jian Si Ning and the Chi family coming over, they showed no sign of restraining themselves. Uncle Jian looked at Master Chi and his wife, revealing his greedy face:
"I heard that both of you are well-known figures. You won't listen to the words of an ignorant junior. No elders from the bride's side attended the engagement party. Aren't you afraid of causing gossip?"
Teacher Chi pulled the corners of his lips with a fake smile: "I can't say whether the younger generation is sensible or not, but some people are obviously not sensible. This is the engagement party of my son and his daughter-in-law. Whoever they want to invite, they can invite. It's up to them. Do any of you have anything to say?"
"No!!!" Resounding responses came from several tables.
The atmosphere here was similar to that of a military cafeteria, which gave several people a fright.
Obviously, relying on inciting public opinion to achieve one's goals is no longer effective today.
Later, they learned that Jian Si Ning's in-laws had a powerful background, and they came here as relatives to gain some benefits. Seeing that they couldn't gain any advantage, they became angry. Jian Si Ning would not have an easy time either.
The aunt would not give up until she achieved her goal. She stared at Zhuang Ruyue and provoked her, "You don't know yet, do you? This damn girl is a calamity star that brings misfortune to her parents. Whoever gets involved with her will be unlucky! How dare a family like yours marry her?"
Before Jian Si Ning could open his mouth, he was pushed aside by Zhuang Ruyue.
"If I don't marry her, then what about you? They say she is unlucky, but why didn't she kill you? Is she not close enough or are you just too lucky? What an unlucky thing, get out of here!"
