Before entering the banquet hall, Jiang Yilai took a deep breath and suppressed her emotions.
Only after her facial expression returned to normal did she go inside.
Fu Nanxiao was still in the most crowded place, so he was easy to find.
But Jiang Yilai took two steps in that direction, and the smile on her face froze.
In the crowd, Gu Nianqiang was holding Fu Nanxiao's arm, a glass of red wine in her hand, as she clinked glasses with the newcomers.
Her smile was elegant and sweet, gentle and graceful—truly a perfect match for Fu Nanxiao's virtuous wife.
Jiang Yilai's anger flared up instantly.
The Gu siblings are going too far!
She felt deeply humiliated, and her expression turned cold.
Jiang Yilai called to the waiter, grabbed a glass of red wine, and strode towards the crowd.
At this moment, Gu Nianqiang was in an extremely good mood.
She followed Fu Nanxiao around, feeling lightheaded, almost believing herself to be his wife.
Just then, a boss came over and flattered the two of them with a big smile: "Mr. Fu, this must be Mrs. Fu. You two are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."
Fu Nanxiao frowned slightly.
Gu Nianqiang's lips looked as if they were filled with honey.
She leaned closer to Fu Nanxiao, her smile deepening, just about to reply.
Suddenly, a voice with a smile came from the crowd: "Sir, you've misunderstood. She's not Mrs. Fu."
Suddenly, everything went quiet.
Gu Nianqiang's smile froze on her face.
Everyone looked toward the source of the sound in surprise, and a path automatically formed.
Jiang Yilai, holding a glass of red wine, walked over slowly with a faint smile on her face.
She walked up to the two of them and stopped.
The black dress she wore had no discernible brand and a very ordinary style, a world apart from the haute couture gown from a top luxury brand that Gu Nianqiang was wearing.
However, she had exquisite features, clear and firm eyes, and a faint coldness between her brows. Compared to Gu Nianqiang, she had a more aloof and noble temperament.
Jiang Yilai glanced at the man who had just called her Mrs. Fu with a smile, then looked at Gu Nianqiang and said calmly, "Miss Gu, can you give my husband back to me now?"
boom--
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Gu Nianqiang's face turned extremely ugly.
She felt that everyone around her was giving her strange looks.
Gu Nianqiang's expression changed rapidly, and finally she smiled as if she was trying to suppress her grievances: "Miss Jiang, you seem to have misunderstood something. You were not here just now, so I helped Nan Xiao greet the guests for a while. They misunderstood."
After saying that, she gave Fu Nanxiao a pitiful look.
Jiang Yilai looked over coldly.
She sneered inwardly. If Fu Nanxiao agreed with her even a little bit, she would turn around and leave!
Fu Nanxiao happened to look at her as well.
Their eyes met.
The air seemed to crackle with the sound of fire.
Fu Nanxiao raised an eyebrow.
Is this woman jealous?
This realization suddenly put him in a very good mood.
Fu Nanxiao remained calm. He brushed Gu Nianqiang's hand aside, stretched out his long arm, and pulled Jiang Yilai to his side.
"Where have you been? You've been gone for so long." He looked down and suddenly reached out to brush the stray hairs from her forehead.
His movements were so natural, revealing their intimacy.
Jiang Yilai's anger, like a balloon, was punctured by his small action.
She concealed her inner turmoil and glared at him reproachfully.
Then he said to Gu Nianqiang, "Miss Gu, all the guests here today are from the Jin family."
