Chapter 21 Three people bullying a little girl?
These words made people feel uncomfortable, and Ye Jinmo pulled out his arm calmly.
"Thanks."
Mother Zhong said kindly, "Jinmo, choose one. After you choose the style, you need to change the size."
She casually pointed to the most conservative white dress among them. It was the only one with shoulders and sleeves, while the other two were all tube tops.
Meng Shanshan laughed sweetly: "Aunt, I won the bet, my sister really chose white!"
Then, she looked at Ye Jinmo with a smile: "I made a bet with my aunt to guess which one you would choose. I think your temperament is particularly suitable for white."
"You still understand Jinmo's thoughts better." Zhong's mother also laughed, "I'll ask your eldest brother to bring the customized crown and necklace later."
Ye Jinmo looked at the two people in front of her. Although she didn't like Meng Shanshan very much, since Zhong's mother was present, she nodded kindly.
In the next few days, Meng Shanshan did not bother her again. Zhong Beichi's attitude towards her remained the same, but probably under pressure from his eldest brother, he did not speak ill of her again.
The Ye family, which was rumored to be on the verge of bankruptcy, somehow managed to make the stock market recover little by little.
It's a rare harmony, and she has been busy these days studying new medical books with her master.
As the day of the banquet approaches, everything is getting better.
Ji family.
Grandma Ji looked at her grandson unhappily and felt like she was about to have a heart attack again.
"You have to go to the dinner tonight, whether you want to or not!"
"Grandma, I told you, I don't want to meet Miss Zhong, let alone get engaged to her!"
Today's dinner was specially held by the Zhong family to introduce their daughter to everyone, and its grandness was unimaginable.
"Okay, you're not going, right? I...!" Grandma Ji said, holding her heart and leaning back.
Everyone was in a panic, and the private doctor worked for a while before stabilizing the blood pressure.
Ji Sichen sighed and softened his voice: "I'll go, but grandma, if we both don't like each other when we meet, then..."
“If that’s the case, then grandma won’t force you.”
After hesitating for a long time, Ji Sichen finally changed his clothes. Looking at his grandmother who was energetic and looked healthy, he felt a little headache.
However, he has made up his mind to cancel the engagement with the Zhong family.
He can marry a woman he doesn't love for the sake of his family, but he absolutely cannot marry a woman with bad conduct!
But speaking of it, if we really get married, it seems...she's not bad...
A charming figure appeared in his mind.
He shook his head, cursing himself for having thoughts about such a young girl.
She was just a little girl who met by chance and was looking for a doctor for her grandmother. How could there be a possibility between him and her?
I should think about how to bring up the matter of breaking off the engagement with the Zhong family tonight~

The banquet started on time at 8 o'clock in the evening.
The three members of the Ye family arrived at the venue at six o'clock. Ye Shuran looked at the magnificent Zhong family with unstoppable envy in his eyes.
I heard that several young masters of the Ye family will also attend the banquet tonight. If she can be favored by the young master of the Zhong family, then she will be able to enter the upper class in one step!
Thinking of this, she fixed her makeup on her phone. Today she was wearing a very eye-catching red dress. As soon as she entered the venue, she attracted the attention of several young talents.
She raised her neck proudly, as if she were a white swan, noble and elegant.
Little did she know that the red dress looked a little old-fashioned on her, making her originally pure temperament have a bit of maturity that did not belong to her age.
Ye Jinmo trotted into the room, and when the housekeeper saw her come in, he hurried to tell her.
She was so engrossed in reading a medical book today that she forgot the time. When she realized it was almost six o'clock, she hurried home.
Unexpectedly, I bumped into Ye's father as soon as I entered the door.
"Jinmo, why are you here?"
Ye's mother and Ye Shuran came over upon hearing the sound.
Ye Jinmo did not respond. She lowered her head to look at her phone. It was already past six o'clock and she still had to do her hair. It was too late.
But Ye Shuran was not willing to let her go, and stopped her directly: "Sister, don't you work for the Zhong family? Why are you not at the back, but at the front meeting? And you're dressed like this?"
All the servants in the venue were wearing uniforms. Ye Jinmo was wearing an ordinary short-sleeved shirt and jeans, which was out of place with the luxury here.
Thinking of this, she suddenly understood something, and she held Ye Jinmo's hand, and kindly advised: "I know you want to attend the party, but you have to change your clothes!"
"What, you want to attend the party too?" Ye's mother suddenly became angry.
The adopted daughter in front of him not only ruined the Ye family's business, but also wanted to come to the banquet to catch a rich husband!
She would never allow this to happen!
"The people who came today are all from the upper class, either rich or noble families. Why are you here to mess things up?"
Ye's father hurriedly pulled Ye's mother back, but his words of reproach were meant for Ye Jinmo to hear: "Your mother is right, Jinmo, you need to be clear about your family background and abilities. Last time you had an unclear relationship with that man, and now you come here again. The wealthy will not be compatible with those who are inferior to you..."
Ye Jinmo interrupted him mercilessly and sneered: "Then what are you doing here?"
She looked at the three people in front of her with mockery. Their exquisite and decent clothes, coupled with the condescending expressions on their faces, were truly disgusting!
"What?"
"Boss Ye said that the wealthy families would not be as tolerant as the lower class, but it seems that the Ye family is not on the invitation list for today's banquet!"
She was certain that her elder brother had not invited the Ye family.
But the next second, Ye Shuran took out the gold-stamped invitation.
"Sister, I know you are unhappy. How about this? I have a spare dress in the car. As the adopted daughter of the Ye family, you can attend the banquet tonight. Maybe you can meet a better man."
"Shu Ran!" Ye's mother pulled her arm and scolded, "How could you let her participate? She ruined the Ye family's business a while ago. This ungrateful person must be kicked out!"
Father Ye also sighed and patted Ye Jinmo on the shoulder: "Jinmo, Dad came here today to restore the cooperation with the Zhong family. So, you go home first, and when the cooperation is reached, Dad will hold another banquet for you and Shu Ran, okay?"
Ye Jinmo was completely speechless. She didn't know who sent the invitation to the Ye family, but time was running out and she had to hurry to the dressing room.
"None of your business is my business, get out of the way!"
Just as the four were about to start arguing, Ye Jinmo was pushed by them unexpectedly and fell backwards.
The pain she imagined did not happen. She fell into someone's arms. When she stood up, she found that it was Ji Sichen.
His big hands covered her waist, and for some reason, she felt instantly at peace.
"Three people bullying a little girl?" The man sneered, emitting a powerful aura.
The three of them fell silent.
Ye Shuran recognized Ji Sichen and her eyes lit up.
Since he can come to the banquet, it means he must be an extraordinary person!
Father Ye blushed. Not knowing his identity, he did not dare to confront him rashly: "We are just educating our daughter!"
"I said, I have nothing to do with the Ye family!" Ye Jinmo looked annoyed, with a cold light in her eyes, "If you want to restore the cooperation, stay away from me!"
After saying that, she whispered a thank you to Ji Sichen and trotted to the backyard.
Just after turning a corner, she saw Meng Shanshan coming out from the direction of her dressing room.
Why is Meng Shanshan there?
