During their last outing, Pei Mozhi discovered that Zi Xi had a unique hobby: watching excitement.
Watching a lively spectacle pleases Zixi far more than any expensive gift.
Since she likes him, Pei Mozhi naturally wants to seize the opportunity to make Zi Xi fully accept him.
As a result, Pei Mozhi, who had always kept a low profile and never participated in any activities, began to frequently take Zixi to various banquets and charity galas.
The invitation to the marriage alliance between the Fu and Lin families was also sent to Pei Mozhi, and Pei Mozhi naturally wanted to bring Zi Xi along for such a lively occasion.
As the heir of the Fu family, Fu Moyan's engagement banquet with Lin Wei, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, was a grand affair, attracting almost all the city's celebrities.
The engagement banquet was held in the rooftop garden that the Fu family had recently purchased.
Pei Mozhi and Zi Xi attracted a lot of attention as soon as they entered.
Zi Xi, arm in arm with Pei Mozhi, quickly found her target.
The target is naturally the female lead, Jin Yue.
She was no longer dressed as a waitress or an innocent schoolgirl, but instead wore a well-tailored champagne-colored dress, with exquisite makeup, standing on the edge of the room but in a good position with a good view.
She held a glass of wine in her hand, looking at the perfect couple, Fu Moyan and Lin Wei, who were surrounded by people in the center of the banquet with a complicated expression.
Lin Wei is dignified and elegant, while Fu Moyan is handsome and dashing; they seem like a match made in heaven.
"Oh, the main character has arrived."
"Look at Miss Jin's eyes, three parts sorrow, three parts resentment, and four parts anger. It seems that the innocent flower has evolved into a man-eating flower?"
Pei Mozhi gestured to Zixi with his eyes to look quickly.
Zi Xi's gaze fell on Jin Yue's resentful eyes, and she sighed deeply.
During this time, Jin Yue really listened to Pei Mozhi's words completely, and actually put in the effort to find a time when Fu Moyan's fiancée was not around, so she had a car accident encounter with Fu Moyan.
She even successfully connected with Fu Moyan by portraying herself as a strong and innocent girl.
So no matter what, it seems the male and female leads will still have some interaction.
But today, as it's the engagement party for the male lead Fu Moyan, don't tell her that Jin Yue is planning to crash the wedding!
Pei Mozhi had told her that although Fu Moyan was the heir, both Fu Moyan and his wife actually had several illegitimate children. In recent years, the old man of the Fu family had become less certain about the heir.
If Fu Moyan becomes useless, the Fu family can change heirs at any time.
Pei Mozhi pulled Zi Xi to sit in the corner, watching the engagement ceremony proceed step by step, exchanging tokens, kissing, and receiving thunderous applause.
In another corner, Jin Yue gripped her wine glass so tightly with her fingertips that she almost crushed it, while maintaining a polite smile on her face as Fu Moyan kissed Lin Wei.
After the ceremony, free social time begins.
Fu Moyan led Lin Wei around, toasting everyone.
When they reached Pei Mozhi's table, the atmosphere froze for a moment.
"Patriarch Pei, Madam Pei, thank you for gracing our engagement banquet with Weiwei."
Fu Moyan's smile remained unchanged, but his gaze toward Pei Mozhi carried a hint of barely perceptible inquiry.
[Why is this guy here? I heard he's been acting strangely lately, taking his wife to banquets. Does this Miss Zhao just enjoy being in a crowd?]
Lin Wei appeared poised and graceful, but her gaze lingered on Zi Xi for a second longer before she nodded in agreement.
[This Miss Zhao isn't even that good-looking. How could the Pei family head marry a woman like that? They say there hasn't even been a wedding yet; is it a fake marriage?]
"Congratulations."
Pei Mozhi raised his glass in acknowledgment, his tone indifferent.
"Congratulations."
Zi Xi smiled and agreed, but her eyes glanced at Jin Yue not far away. Suddenly she froze. Jin Yue was gone.
Just as Fu Moyan was about to go to the next table, an unexpected incident occurred.
