Ji Guanxiong's villa was originally decorated magnificently, and it was redecorated for Mr. Ji's birthday party.
When Zhou Yi entered, his first feeling was that everything was glittering with gold, just like a banquet hall decorated by a nouveau riche.
You can't feel at all that this is a decoration that can be created by a family with a rich background.
Zhou Yiyi didn't need to think at all, he guessed at the first moment that this must be the work of Liu Ying.
After all, Liu Ying was a secretary from an ordinary family. She studied hard and was admitted to a key university. Later, she joined the Ji Group and became Ji Guanxiong's secretary.
Later, he took advantage of the fact that Ji Shining's mother was in poor health after giving birth to Ji Shining, and took the initiative to seduce her, slowly teasing her. He started as a lover and eventually became Mrs. Ji.
Liu Ying has been very cautious all along, so when she can express herself, she must do it in an extremely exaggerated way. However, it is this exaggeration that lowers her grade.
A home with real heritage does not need such luxurious and eye-catching decorations. It only needs one or two classic decorations and some details to highlight the elegance and grandeur of the entire atmosphere.
Unfortunately, no one would tell Liu Ying these truths, and naturally, Liu Ying couldn't help but listen.
All the rich ladies praised Liu Ying in public, but were secretly shocked behind her back, and thought that her arrangement was extremely vulgar.
Zhou Yiyi walked around with Ji Shining for a while, but felt a little bored, so he found a secluded corner and sat down.
When I passed by the dining table just now, I took away a plate of snacks, which is just enough to fill my stomach now.
Unexpectedly, the corner she chose allowed her to watch a big drama.
Zhou Yiyi sat behind a pillar. Through the pillar and the artificial flowers next to it, he saw two people standing among the artificial flowers. After listening to their conversation, he found out that they were the male and female protagonists in the book.
Zhou Yutong was crying, "Brother Jingchuan, should we just cancel our engagement?
Yesterday I heard my parents discussing that the reason they agreed to your engagement was because they had found their biological daughter.
They did this to compensate me, but I had occupied their daughter's place for so many years and they gave me all their love and care.
I can no longer be so selfish and keep such an outstanding person like you tied to me. I have decided to give you to their biological daughter. After all, she is your legitimate fiancée."
Ji Jingchuan flew into a rage, grabbed Zhou Yutong's arm and shook it vigorously, "Yutong, wake up, I love you.
Even if I have an engagement with her, I don't love her at all, let alone marry her. I will only marry you in this life, and I only love you."
Zhou Yutong shook her head, tears rolling down her cheeks, "Brother Jingchuan, I'm sorry, I didn't want to come.
But I felt I had to clarify this matter with you face to face, and now that it's been clarified, I'll leave immediately to make room for you.
Don't worry, I will never become a stumbling block for you. After I leave, I will never appear in front of you again."
Ji Jingchuan hugged Zhou Yutong tightly in his arms, "No, absolutely not, I can't let go, where do you go, I go?
If you don't want to get married, what's the point of me getting married?
I don't care if she's a real daughter or a fake daughter, I only recognize you."
The two of them soon embraced and kissed each other.
Next up is the restricted level, and even Zhou Yiyi couldn’t eat the cake just by listening to the sound.
She carried the tray and left the corner quickly and lightly.
The happiest people in the entire banquet were Ji Guanxiong and Liu Ying. The couple mingled with every guest, trying to please them and making everyone laugh.
After all the guests arrived, Ji Guanxiong went to the second floor and helped Old Man Ji down.
As Mr. Ji slowly walked down the stairs, the guests below applauded.
Under the guidance of Ji Guanxiong, Mr. Ji followed him to the front desk of the hall.
At this time, there was a round table on the front stage of the hall, and on the table was an exquisitely made eight-layer cake.
Ji Guanxiong waved to the guests around him, and the hall suddenly fell silent.
"Dad, today is your 80th birthday. I wish you a happy birthday and good health!"
All the guests responded and wished Mr. Ji a happy birthday.
Mr. Ji nodded to the acquaintances in the crowd with a smile on his face, made eye contact with everyone present, and greeted them.
Waves of happy birthday came again.
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached a climax, Ji Guanxiong waved his hand again, and everyone instantly quieted down again.
"Dad, shall we cut the cake? The party will start soon."
Mr. Ji did not take the knife from his hand, but waved to the crowd cheerfully, "Guanye, Shi Ning, come here."
A passage was immediately cleared in front of the two of them.
Two men of equal height and distinguished temperament walked up to Mr. Ji in full view of the crowd.
Ji Guanxiong narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the uncle and nephew who were walking over. Although his facial expression did not change, his heart was secretly beating fast.
He didn't understand why Mr. Ji called the two of them out at this time.
They both said, "Happy birthday, Dad!"
"Happy birthday, Grandpa!"
"Good, good boy."
The old man said hello three times and pulled Ji Guanye and Ji Shining to his side, one in each hand.
When Ji Guanye walked to the side of Mr. Ji, he used his strength to push Ji Guanxiong to the side and squeezed out a space for himself.
Ji Guanxiong snorted angrily, but did not show it out of consideration for the many guests present.
Old Master Ji released the hand that was holding Ji Guanye and patted Ji Shining who was holding his left hand.
"Shi Ning is the child I have raised since childhood, and everyone has witnessed it. This child is fully capable of shouldering the responsibility of the Ji family.
I decided to transfer 10% of my shares to Shi Ning.
After I die, the remaining 15% of my shares will be transferred to Shi Ning."
As soon as Mr. Ji finished speaking, everyone present was in an uproar, and Liu Ying even exclaimed, "No, no."
Her sudden voice surprised the people around her. Liu Ying was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth and smiled awkwardly at the people around her, but unfortunately that smile was uglier than crying.
Ji Guanxiong clenched his fists and glared at Ji Shining angrily. He took several deep breaths before calming down and looked back at Old Man Ji.
"Dad, today is your birthday. Why are you saying these unlucky things? Son, I believe you will live a long life.
Our Ji family has lived in harmony for so many years. Don't worry, Dad, the Ji family will get better and better."
Several close associates of Ji Guanxiong also echoed his sentiments.
"That's right... Mr. Ji, you look much stronger this time. Why did you bring up the will?"
"Yes, Mr. Ji, the harmony of the Ji family is obvious to all. Under the leadership of President Ji, the Ji family has been thriving in the past two years."
