Wang Haoran looked at his older sister, his emotions suddenly running high. He gripped her arm tightly and demanded, "What did you say to Ji Zhinan?!"
Wang Shanshan was stunned; this was the first time her younger brother had spoken to her in such a tone.
Thinking that Ji Zhinan had bewitched her brother, Wang Shanshan was furious: "Haoran! Don't let that face cloud your judgment! You're the only boy in our Wang family, and we'll have to rely on you to carry on the family's legacy. Let me tell you, that woman has absolutely no chance of entering our Wang family. You'd better give up on her now!"
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Wang Haoran roared.
How could he possibly dare to covet Gu Yibei's wife!
Wang Shanshan had no idea what Wang Haoran was angry about, and only thought that he was angry because of Ji Zhinan. She was furious: "Anyway, I will never acknowledge her as my sister-in-law!"
"You!" Wang Haoran was indeed angry with Wang Shanshan because of Ji Zhinan, but it wasn't what Wang Shanshan thought. He was about to say something to Wang Shanshan when he glanced at Mu Minmin, who was watching the drama unfold, and stopped talking. He just looked at his older sister and said, "Don't provoke Ji Zhinan anymore!"
The Wang family no longer has the confidence to offend that woman!
…………
Downstairs, the party is about to begin, and most of the guests have arrived.
Standing in the crowd, Ji Zhinan only needed to glance around to spot many familiar faces: Ji Pengfei and his secretary Lily, Mu Daxiang and his two sons, Wang Shanshan and her brother Wang Haoran...
Xing Fei saw it too, and whispered in Ji Zhinan's ear, "How did they get in?"
Ji Zhinan's lips curled up: "It'll be more interesting if they come."
"Thump—thump—thump—"
The ancient bell in the center of the hall rang out with a deep chime, followed by gasps from the ladies and wives present and a constant stream of screams from below.
Lin Que and Eddie appeared side by side in the public eye. They were about the same height, one in a white suit and the other in a purple suit, each with their own kind of handsomeness.
When Eddie saw Ji Zhinan standing next to Xing Fei and Xing Minggao in the crowd, his deep blue eyes were instantly filled with tenderness. His gaze was directed at the crowd, which made the young ladies in the crowd even more excited.
As everyone knows, Eddie Warrens, the current CEO of the Warrens Group, and his sister, the only beloved eldest daughter of the Warrens family, will be appearing today. So, families with sons or daughters who are not yet married have brought their children, regardless of age, hoping that their children will get to see the Warrens siblings and perhaps they will take a liking to their kids.
Upon seeing Eddie Wallace, the girls were captivated, while the men present eagerly awaited the arrival of the legendary princess South Wulace, but no one appeared for quite some time.
Eddie stood in the center of the room, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and announced the start of the banquet in fluent Chinese: "Thank you all for coming today. Eddie Warrens is honored and wishes you all a wonderful evening."
The audience applauded and cheered.
According to aristocratic custom, the host would lead the opening dance before each formal party began, and although they were in China, Eddie still maintained this tradition.
The young ladies present knew Eddie's habits, so they were all dressed up beautifully today. When they saw Eddie's gaze fall on them, they quickly straightened their exquisite dresses, ready to accept Eddie's invitation at any time.
