Xu Tingchuan frowned slightly when he heard Pei Yang's question, and slowly turned his head to look. He saw Ni Sitian and Jiang Yun walking in side by side.
“He looks familiar, like a celebrity?” Pei Yang asked Xu Tingchuan.
Xu Tingchuan said nothing and walked over there.
When Ni Sitian saw Xu Tingchuan, she immediately quickened her pace to go and meet him.
The two walked together, and Xu Tingchuan raised his hand to stroke Ni Sitian's stray hairs, "Did you give the gift to Fu Wenuan?"
“Mmm.” Ni Sitian nodded and said, “Wen Nuan really likes this gift.”
"That's good." Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly, his gaze seemingly only now glancing at Jiang Yun.
Ni Sitian then remembered, took Xu Tingchuan's arm, and led him towards Jiang Yun, introducing him to Jiang Yun: "This is my husband, Xu Tingchuan."
Then she introduced Jiang Yun to Xu Tingchuan.
Xu Tingchuan looked at Jiang Yun, extended his hand, and said politely, "I heard from Si Tian that Mr. Jiang was injured because he helped her. I haven't thanked Mr. Jiang yet. Thank you so much for your help."
"Mr. Xu, you're too kind." Jiang Yun reached out and shook his hand, raising her eyebrows slightly. "Didn't you already express your gratitude in another way?"
Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly, but there was little joy in his eyes, and released Jiang Yun's hand.
Ni Sitian was completely confused. She looked at Xu Tingchuan and then at Jiang Yun, not understanding what they were talking about.
Music began to play in the banquet hall.
Xu Tingchuan then took Ni Sitian's hand and walked back to their seats. They were sitting in the fourth row, with ten people at a table.
Pei Yang, Shen Muzhi, and Xu Jiayue were already sitting there. Ni Sitian hadn't seen Shen Muzhi for a long time. When she suddenly looked at him, she was slightly stunned. The dark circles under his eyes were too severe!
I heard Zhilan mention his insomnia before, but it didn't seem to be this bad. Could it be that Jinji died and his condition has worsened?
When Xu Tingchuan saw Shen Muzhi, worry couldn't help but show in his eyes.
The last time I saw him like this was ten years ago when Su Yan had just died. He couldn't sleep all night and desperately wanted to find her. Why has he suddenly reverted to his old ways?
After the two sat down, Pei Yang laughed and said, "You don't need to stare at the fourth brother like you're watching a panda, do you?"
Ni Sitian realized she had been impolite and immediately looked away.
Xu Tingchuan frowned slightly and said to Shen Muzhi, "Take care of your health."
Shen Muzhi's expression remained cold and indifferent. He picked up the wine glass on the table and took a small sip.
Just as everyone was looking at Shen Muzhi, Ni Sitian heard someone call her name, so she turned around and saw Xiang Zhilan holding Feng Jingxian's hand and walking towards them.
There happened to be two empty seats next to Ni Sitian, so Xiang Zhilan pulled Feng Jingxian to sit down.
After she sat down, she looked up and saw Shen Muzhi at the table opposite her. He was still dressed in black and looked a little thinner.
She bit her lip in annoyance. She had been so focused on seeing Ni Sitian that she hadn't realized Shen Muzhi was at the table.
Would it seem too deliberate for her to change tables now?
But the current situation is really a bit awkward. Although she and Shen Muzhi did not have a physical relationship, it is a fact that they had slept in the same bed for three months. She cannot erase this fact, and she does not even dare to let Feng Jingxian know.
She couldn't imagine how Feng Jingxian would react if he knew about this.
