After arriving at the banquet, Chen Jiayi and Shen Jialiang got out of the car one after the other.
Shen Jialiang walked silently behind Chen Jiayi, a smile flashing in his eyes as he looked at her back.
Shen Jialiang originally thought Chen Jiayi was going upstairs to put on makeup and change into a pretty dress, but it turned out she was just changing out of her school uniform into a set of everyday clothes.
Shen Jialiang knew Chen Jiayi's personality; she was mostly lazy.
People at the banquet had various expressions when they saw Chen Jiayi and Shen Jialiang arrive in the same car.
Shen Jialiang is a hot commodity that many people are eyeing. The thought that Shen Jialiang has someone by his side inevitably draws everyone's attention to Chen Jiayi, who is standing next to him.
Chen Jiayi felt many eyes staring at her. Her lips twitched, and she silently increased the distance between herself and Shen Jialiang.
Shen Jialiang was walking behind Chen Jiayi when he saw her quicken her pace in silence. He paused for a moment, then took a long stride.
She had originally intended to distance herself from Shen Jialiang, but Shen Jialiang, taking advantage of his long legs, walked directly in front of her.
Chen Jiayi glared at Shen Jialiang, who saw it and chuckled softly.
Why are you walking so fast?
Chen Jiayi didn't say anything, but walked towards the female guests.
Shen Jialiang stopped, after all, this was the women's area.
After Chen Jiayi went inside, she noticed that the people there were looking at her strangely.
She was a little confused, but hadn't quite grasped what was happening yet.
Chi Mengqiu had just arrived and immediately saw Chen Jiayi.
She walked up to Chen Jiayi, a look of amused curiosity in her eyes.
"Wow, Jiayi, I didn't expect you to be so amazing! When did you win over Professor Shen? You've been so quiet about it."
Chen Jiayi was completely bewildered upon hearing Chi Mengqiu's words.
"What do you mean? I just hitched a ride with Teacher Shen on my way."
Chi Mengqiu exclaimed and reached out to pat Chen Jiayi's shoulder.
She didn't say anything, but her face showed an expression that said, "I understand."
Seeing the other person's expression, Chen Jiayi reacted a beat late.
Others thought that she had a close relationship with Shen Jialiang, which was why they rode in the same car and came together.
However, in Chen Jiayi's eyes, Teacher Shen was just her teacher.
Having been immersed in studying for too long, Chen Jiayi didn't have time to think much about Shen Jialiang's actions today.
She immediately regretted it, realizing what a foolish thing she had done.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
Chen Jiayi couldn't help but complain to Shen Jialiang, her gaze drifting towards his direction. Shen Jialiang smiled gently at Chen Jiayi.
Those around looked as if they had just been hit by a stumble.
Even though you two are already a couple, you can't just openly show your affection like this, can you?
Tsk tsk tsk, the world is going to the dogs...
Lin Yuyao stood high up on the building, looking down at the many people below. As she listened to the voices around her, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
Be happy and smug!
After a while, I won't be able to laugh anymore.
The thought of them all dying at her hands filled Lin Yuyao with excitement.
Want to use her? Scheme against her?
Don't they realize who's outsmarting whom?
What's more, Chen Jiahua is actually Chen Jiayi's brother?
Hehehe...
The person she hates the most is actually her future husband's sister.
It's really annoying that such a ridiculous thing could happen to her.
Tsk.
"Miss, it's time for you to come downstairs."
Hearing the frightening sound, Lin Yuyao came back to her senses.
She gave a gentle smile. "Okay."
Soon, Lin Yuyao came downstairs.
Upon seeing Lin Yuyao in her pure white wedding dress, Chen Jiayi frowned slightly.
I don't know what Lin Yuyao is up to, she hired several people to harass her, just to get her to attend her engagement party.
Chen Jiayi looked around and found that most of the people around her were young people.
She frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
Lin Yuyao had already gone on stage. Holding the microphone, she sharply scanned everyone below.
"Thank you all for coming to my engagement party today. Please make yourselves at home."
After saying that, Lin Yuyao went downstairs.
Everyone present was stunned.
"What the hell? That's it? It's over?"
"What's this for? Doesn't it count as attending her engagement party?"
"Huh? That's it?"
"I heard that the Lin family found Lin Yuyao a man who is the same age as her father?"
"What's going on here?"
There was much discussion, but Lin Yuyao ignored it.
Seeing this, Chen Jiayi frowned even more deeply.
What is Lin Yuyao trying to do?
Chen Jiayi had just wanted to know what the other party was going to do when Lin Yuyao's people invited her upstairs.
The person leading the way took Chen Jiayi to a secluded place, then roughly pushed open the door and shoved her inside.
Chen Jiayi's pupils contracted slightly as she was violently pushed to the ground, then watched helplessly as they locked the door.
The room was small and pitch black.
Chen Jiayi walked to the door in the dark and tried to open it.
As a result, the door was locked from the outside.
Chen Jiayi kicked the door several times, but couldn't get it open.
A familiar sneer came from outside.
"Chen Jiayi, you can't get out of here, don't even think about it."
Upon hearing this voice, Chen Jiayi immediately froze.
She chuckled softly, "Lin Yuyao? What do you want to do?"
A hint of resentment flashed in Lin Yuyao's eyes.
"You may not remember me, but I remember you. I used to go to a banquet in your village, and you were the prettiest girl in the village back then! I hated you then."
Chen Jiayi showed no reaction to Lin Yuyao's narration; she simply chuckled softly.
"And then? And then you're jealous of me? Envious of me?"
Lin Yuyao's face showed resentment when she heard Chen Jiayi's question.
"You know that's good! If it weren't for you, no one would have known that I pushed Wang Yu down the stairs. If it weren't for you, no one would have known that I was a fake heiress. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this situation where I'm being forced into marriage."
Lin Yuyao's complaints were like a surging river.
But Chen Jiayi couldn't help but laugh.
"You mean it's all my fault?"
"What else?"
Lin Yuyao naturally blamed everything on Chen Jiayi.
She felt it was all Chen Jiayi's fault for appearing; Chen Jiayi was like her bad luck star, bringing her misfortune.
Lin Yuyao continued, "You probably don't know this, but your brother isn't dead at all! He deceived my feelings back then, and now I'm deceiving you into coming to the engagement party, so we're even."
only……
Lin Yuyao felt a surge of anger and grief whenever she thought of Chen Jiahua.
She definitely had feelings for Chen Jiahua, but once she got him, she discovered that the person next to her was a liar...
Lin Yuyao is experiencing a mental breakdown.
After she finished speaking, she quickly regained her composure and left.
Before she died, Lin Yuyao checked the lock to make sure it was locked properly.
Chen Jiayi didn't know what Lin Yuyao was planning, but she thought she couldn't just sit and wait to die.
So, Chen Jiayi reached for the window.
