Chapter 24 I would like to formally introduce my granddaughter to everyone!
Ye Jinmo broke free from her hands, turned around gracefully, and turned back while holding up the hem of her skirt.
Ye Shuran was pulled by inertia and fell to the ground. The wine glass fell to the ground with a clang, and the golden liquid spilled on her red skirt, instantly wetting a large area of it.
"Ah! My skirt!"
Ye Jinmo looked coldly at the man with a ferocious face in the flower hall, shook her head, turned and left.
When she saw Ye Shuran coming to her with a glass of wine, she guessed what was about to happen.
She really couldn't understand why Ye Shuran targeted her again and again, even though there was clearly no conflict of interest between them.
Wouldn’t it be good to just be the eldest daughter of the Ye family?
"You spilled wine all over me, are you going to leave without apologizing?" Ye Shuran asked harshly, completely losing her previous elegance, her delicate makeup ruined by the mess on her face.
"I'm going to tell my parents that I came here to advise you with good intentions, but you didn't appreciate it and you were actually trying to sabotage me!" As she said this, she stood up and cried.
"Your makeup is smudged from crying." Ye Jinmo said slowly.
After he finished speaking, the crying stopped abruptly.
She looked down at the stunned person on the ground, her brows knitted slightly, and said calmly: "You know what you are thinking. The banquet is about to start, so take care of yourself."
Before she could finish, Ye Shuran staggered to his feet and ran quickly towards the door.
No matter what, she had to change her clothes quickly and not make a fool of herself at the party!
Ye Jinmo walked towards the main venue holding up the hem of her skirt. It must be said that the hem of her skirt was really heavy. The diamonds on it looked beautiful, but they added a lot of weight invisibly.
She also had to be careful not to step on her dress, otherwise she would trip.
This dress probably weighs nearly 30 kilograms. It’s the first time I feel that walking in a dress is more tiring than carrying herbs for a day.
Her steps slowed down involuntarily and her face turned red.
Suddenly, I felt my body lighten.
She turned around and saw Ji Sichen helping her hold up the back of her skirt.
"Thanks!"
"Watch your step." A man's voice came from above her head.
She paused, not paying attention to her step, stepped on the lining, and fell forward.
The next second, she was pulled back with a scream.
The man's hands held her waist firmly, and with a force, her upper body pressed against his chest.
The hot breath passed between their noses.
Ji Sichen looked down at the girl in his arms, with skin as delicate as a baby's, watery almond eyes, a pair of bright red lips slightly parted, and a breath as sweet as orchid.
The moonlight shone down, and her delicate features radiated a soft light.
She is so beautiful!
He inexplicably wanted to kiss her!
"Are you okay?" Ji Sichen's magnetic voice was hoarse.
Ye Jinmo's pretty face flushed, and she stood up quickly, her eyes clear and bright: "I'm fine, thank you, I have to hurry to the venue, it's too late!"
After saying that, she lifted her skirt and trotted away.
The sweetness in his arms suddenly disappeared, he came back to his senses, his ears turned red, he coughed lightly, and walked forward with steady steps.
Zhong Shaoqing walked out silently from the corner, frowning in confusion.
He is a man and understands men's minds too well.
From the scene just now, it was obvious that the two knew each other, and Ji Sichen had a good impression of his sister.
It's strange, why is he so determined to break off the engagement?
Main venue.
Ye Shuran changed into a white dress and stood next to the Ye couple.
"This ungrateful bastard actually poured wine on you. She is really trying not to let you attend the banquet!" Mother Ye was filled with righteous indignation. Her voice was not small, causing people around to look at her.
Father Ye blushed, and quickly pulled her, scolding her in a low voice: "Keep your voice down!"
Mother Ye blushed and glared at him.
Father Ye was so disappointed that he gritted his teeth and whispered, "Why are you yelling? It's okay. If we lose face because of you and ruin the cooperation, how are we going to explain to the board of directors?"
Ye's mother immediately stopped arguing and patted her daughter's hand soothingly: "Shu Ran, wait until the banquet is over, and I will help you teach that little bitch a lesson!"
As they were talking, they suddenly heard a commotion in the crowd.
Not far away, Zhong Shaoqing and Ji Sichen came together.
They are wearing the same black suit, with only one shirt being white and the other blue. They look equally good, but their temperaments are very different.
Zhong Shaoqing is more refined and elegant, while Ji Sichen looks more domineering and seductive because of the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye.
Meng Shanshan quickly stepped forward and took Zhong Shaoqing's arm: "Brother!"
He smiled and patted her hands, then introduced her to Ji Sichen: "Sichen, this is my cousin, Meng Shanshan."
Ji Sichen just nodded politely, his expression as cold as ever.
His eyes drifted away from time to time, as if he was looking for something.
"So this is Mr. Ji. I often hear you mentioned by my elder brother. Nice to meet you!"
Meng Shanshan put on her most beautiful smile and extended her hand.
The man frowned imperceptibly, disgust flashed in his eyes, and out of politeness, he shook it gently.
Zhong Shaoqing noticed his mood, gave Meng Shanshan a few instructions, then walked with him to a secluded place with a glass of wine.
"Are you looking for someone?"
Ji Sichen felt embarrassed for a moment when his thoughts were exposed, but he quickly adjusted his expression and did not deny it.
"Do you have a very young maid in your house?"
Zhong Shaoqing was confused by this. He looked around and said, "The youngest maid is at least 20 years old. You..."
Which maid in his house is your favorite?
He was very puzzled. As the eldest son of the Ji family, he had seen all kinds of women, but how could he fall in love with the maid as soon as he came to his house?
He recalled carefully that the Zhong family didn't seem to have any particularly outstanding servants...
Just as I was thinking this, a sweet voice was heard.
"Hello, Mr. Zhong!"
They both looked up and saw Ye Shuran standing in front of them.
Following behind were the Ye couple.
"How did you get in?" Zhong Shaoqing's face suddenly turned cold.
Ji Sichen also withdrew his gaze, and the atmosphere around him was cold.
Father Ye didn't understand, but still had a shy smile on his face: "Boss Zhong, I came here today to tell you that the Ye family really wants to cooperate with the Zhong family. I know that Jinmo has made a lot of mistakes, and her mother and I have already scolded her severely..."
"Yes, yes, yes." Mother Ye also put on a flattering smile, with a bit of grievance in her words, "Ye Jinmo is our adopted daughter after all. She made her own mistakes, and we can't blame the Ye family for everything. This child is an ungrateful person. She just splashed wine all over Shu Ran..."
Ye Shuran tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to stop talking, and said gently: "My sister is just young and ignorant, I hope you can show mercy and let our Ye family go."
She looked at the two men in front of her whose faces were becoming increasingly colder, and a hint of pride flashed through her heart.
They must have known that Ye Jinmo was so bad and hated her very much!
She glanced at Ji Sichen's cold expression and thought deeply.
Such a handsome man, who can stand with Zhong Shaoqing, must have an extraordinary identity. Now, he must be disgusted with Ye Jinmo!
Maybe both of them will fall in love with her!
Thinking of this, she tried her best to put on her most beautiful smile!
At this moment, the lights in the venue dimmed, and then a light shone on the podium, and Master Zhong stood on the stage holding a scepter.
"Dear friends and family, thank you for taking the time to attend the banquet. Today I want to share a happy event with you. I have found my long-lost granddaughter!"
