At this point in the banquet, the atmosphere had bee very strange.
Some of the onlookers present were looking at the Lan family as a joke. They felt that abandoning Chi Jiao and choosing Chi Yan was like losing a watermelon for a sesame seed. Some of them were already planning how to get close to Chi Jiao and Na Yankun.
After all, if they could build a good relationship with them, they might be able to e into contact with 007. If lucky, they might even be able to get into contact with Mystery J.
Chi Jiao had said everything she needed to say. When she felt that it was about time, she got up and said to Chi Mingwei, “Daddy, I’ll go someplace else to talk to Mr. Na first. I’ll be home early.”
Since Na Yankun had suddenly appeared here, Chi Jiao felt that he must have something to tell her.
Chi Mingwei had many questions he wanted to ask her, but he was not in a hurry.
He had personally seen Lan Guanlin’s regretful expression earlier. At this moment, he was still secretly delighted.
“Alright, go ahead.” Chi Mingwei waved his hand, not worried that Na Yankun would abduct his little Jiaojiao at all.
After what happened today, he felt that his little Jiaojiao was a very smart and outstanding girl.
After Chi Jiao and Na Yankun left, Lan Yunhan called Chi Yan to the lounge on the second floor.
The moment they entered, Lan Yunhan couldn’t wait to ask her, “What’s wrong with you? How could you doubt Mr. Na in front of so many people just now?!”
He was already very worried that reneging on the engagement with Chi Jiao would offend Na Yankun. Now with what Chi Yan had done, his grandfather’s body might really not be able to fully recover if they pletely offended Na Yankun.
“I was just worried that he’s a liar.” Chi Yan’s mood wasn’t any better, and her tone was a little aggressive.
She had yet to recover from the blow she suffered from Chi Jiao knowing Na Yankun.
On what grounds could that country bumpkin know Na Yankun?
Lan Yunhan was so angry that he laughed.
“Haha, liar. Do you know how much effort I spent to get close to Na Yankun? I personally invited him over. How could I not tell if he’s a liar or not?”
Hearing the plaint in Lan Yunhan’s tone, Chi Yan widened her eyes in disbelief and looked at him with hurt. “Are you accusing me now? I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Seeing her eyes turning red, the anger in Lan Yunhan’s heart was instantly suppressed.
“I’m not. I just…” Lan Yunhan didn’t know how to continue. His feelings were plicated right now.
When Chi Jiao took out the jade bracelet earlier, her petite face had a calm expression as if nothing would attract her.
At that time, he suddenly had a feeling.
Perhaps she was really different from what he had imagined her to be, or perhaps he had never seen through her.
“Yunhan, do you regret canceling the engagement with Jiaojiao?” Chi Yan suddenly asked.
Lan Yunhan was stunned for a moment before shaking his head.
At this point, it was not enough for him to regret it yet.
Chi Yan went forward to hug Lan Yunhan and buried her face in his chest. She lowered her eyes to hide the coldness that flashed past them.
“If you regret it, I can help you get Jiaojiao back. But you must never lie to me. I hate it when people lie to me the most.”
Feeling the woman in his arms trembling slightly, Lan Yunhan couldn’t help but reach out and hug her tightly. “I don’t regret it.”
He just briefly felt it was a pity.
