"You will go to the private room upstairs to talk with Uncle Song later."
When An Yiran heard Ji Li's words, she thought she had misheard. She pointed at the man with hair as big as Sanmao and a belly as big as a toad and said, "You want me to accompany him?"
"Keep your voice down!" Ji Li said impatiently, "I'll just let you go and talk to him for a few minutes, but I won't let you do anything."
"Ji Li, don't you take me too seriously? If the woman you brought with you today was Yu Man, would you let her accompany an old man?"
It would have been fine if Yu Man hadn't been mentioned. As soon as he mentioned Yu Man, Ji Li immediately felt a fire rising in his chest. "Shut up! Can you compete with Yu Man? If you don't go today, get out of the Ji family."
After saying that, Ji Li turned around and went to greet others.
An Yiran's eyes were full of hatred.
If it weren't for Yu Man, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
When she went upstairs to the private room, Uncle Song had been waiting for a long time.
"Hey, come here, sit here."
An Yiran endured the discomfort in her stomach and sat next to him, forcing a smile, "Uncle Song."
"Hey, I've seen you on TV before. You're a great singer. What's the name of the song? Come on, sing a song for me."
Seeing the people on the KTV screen, An Yiran suddenly laughed, "Uncle Song, you're wrong. This song is not sung by me, but by Yu Man."
"Yu Man?"
Uncle Song looked at the big screen and then at her, "Isn't this you?"
An Yiran was secretly delighted. "I just look like her. Yu Man is here today too. How about I ask her to come over too?"
Uncle Song was indeed happy, "Really? Then call her over."
As he spoke, he thrust his big, fleshy hand between An Yiran's legs and said, "I can be considered to have watched Ji Li grow up. If you youngsters love me, I will go through fire and water for you."
An Yiran suppressed her nausea and said, "Yes, I'll call her up right away."
-
The chandelier in the banquet hall was very bright, shining on the jewelry of the ladies below, reflecting luxurious light.
Ji Xinghe was caught by Mr. Ji for a conversation, and Su Man tactfully walked aside. Although Mr. Ji was in a wheelchair, his aura was 1.8 meters tall, and she didn't want to go over and get into trouble.
"Ms. Yu Man."
Su Man wanted to slip away but was suddenly called out. She turned around and smiled like an ambassador, "Hello, Chairman."
Ji Xinghe was called away and there was no one to take the blame, so Su Man had no choice but to walk over, half-crouching and looking like she was listening attentively.
However, there was a hint of admiration in Mr. Ji's eyes. "Miss Yu is one of the few people who is willing to squat down and listen to what I say."
Su Man smiled sweetly, "The chairman is a distinguished person and an elder, so it's only natural."
Old Master Ji laughed a few times and said, "No wonder Xinghe often mentions you. You are indeed a smart person."
Su Man didn't know what Mr. Ji meant by mentioning Ji Xinghe now, so she could only smile and say nothing.
Old Master Ji said slowly, "Ji Li has been raised in luxury. He's had everything he wanted and never learned to cherish. My little grandson, on the other hand, is just the opposite. Although he knows how to cherish things, he's also stubborn. Comparing the two, I wonder which one Miss Yu thinks is better?"
Tsk, he is indeed an old fox.
Su Man put on a smiling mask and said, "Chairman, you're joking. Ji Li and Xing He are both outstanding people. I'm naturally not qualified to comment."
Old Master Ji's eyes suddenly became sharp. "Since my two disappointing grandsons are both destined to be with Miss Yu, it doesn't matter if I talk about it casually."
Su Man looked fearlessly at Old Man Ji, her expression frank. "Although Ji Li and I are predestined, we are not destined to be together. As for Xing He, since he is Ji Li's younger brother, I would say that he is half my younger brother. If we compare, I definitely cannot compare."
What I mean is, I don't like either of your grandsons, so there's no need to bother testing them.
Mr. Ji's expression softened slightly, "In that case, I won't embarrass Miss."
"The chairman always considers the younger generation in everything. I'm sure they will be grateful if they know this."
After saying that, Su Man made an excuse to go to the bathroom and ran away.
But she didn't expect that she would fall into a wolf's den just after escaping the tiger's den. An Yiran walked in and smiled, "Sister, you are here."
When An Yiran saw that Yu Man was alone, she secretly felt that God was helping her.
"Is there something wrong?" Yu Man said in a cold tone.
Seeing Yu Man's cold attitude, An Yiran lowered her head and said, "I know you're still blaming me, sister. I did a lot of wrong things before, and now I really want to apologize to you."
Yu Man said calmly, "It's all over."
"Yes, yes, I know that my sister and Ji Xinghe are getting along very well now, but...look, sister."
An Yiran pointed to a place not far away where Ji Xinghe was talking to a company veteran. Next to him was the veteran's daughter, who was looking at Ji Xinghe shyly. It was obvious that this was a large-scale blind date scene.
"In just one short banquet, I saw several people trying to push their daughters to him. Even if he didn't like it, he still had to deal with them because of the power behind them. It shows that women still need to have some connections of their own to gain a foothold."
Yu Man bit her lip, as if moved by what she said. "What do you mean?"
An Yiran smiled. "I heard that Uncle Song, Mr. Ji's confidant, likes your songs very much. If you can convince him to support Ji Xinghe, then you will have a firm foothold, right?"
Yu Man asked suspiciously, "Why are you helping me?"
An Yiran sighed, "Sister, you know that Ji Li only has you in his heart now. I don't know when he will drive me away. If that day really comes, I hope you can help me."
