Chapter 764: Chapter 764: My Ring is Gone Chapter 764: Chapter 764: My Ring is Gone Just as Chi Enen turned her head, her wrist was fiercely grabbed. Chi Jianguo with a dark face and quivering muscles demanded, “How co you’re here?”
Why couldn’t she be here?
Chi Enen, with an indifferent expression, yanked his hand away, retreating a step back in a distant manner, “Why can’t I be here?”
“You go back first!” Chi Jianguo commanded without a second thought.
Chi Enen thought she must have misheard, and looked at him in astonishnt, “President Chi, is tonight’s charity dinner sohow yours to host?”
Everyone knew that tonight’s charity dinner was organized by the governnt; how could it possibly be his! Even Chi Jianguo, as foolish as he could be, could tell that Chi Enen was mocking him. His face grew even uglier, and he furrowed his brows, unexpectedly offering an explanation, “I have important matters to handle today, and it’s inconvenient for you to be here. Go back first.”
Though it was an explanation, he spoke with an air of entitlent.
He was due to et with Ryan’s representative tonight on a matter of importance. The venue was swarming with celebrities, and many were aware of the scandal that had erupted over a year ago. It had taken him well over a year to suppress the affair with the recording, and if Chi Enen were recognized here, it would undoubtedly stir up mories of the past incident.
Chi Enen was not foolish. With what Chi Jianguo had insinuated, how could she not see what he was thinking? Her bright eyes grew colder, and a fire seed to be kindling within her chest, on the verge of being ignited. She slightly curled the corner of her mouth and looked at Chi Jianguo coldly and detachedly, “It’s President Chi who finds it inconvenient, not . If President Chi truly feels uncomfortable, you can leave. I won’t stop you.”
“You…”
Chi Jianguo was about to erupt in anger.
Suddenly, a cry of alarm rang out from the crowd.
“My ring, where’s my ring? Director Feng, my ring is missing.” The woman dressed in a red evening gown, as lovely as roses, frantically searched through her bag, turning to the man beside her in a panicked voice, “It’s not in my bag, what do I do?”
Those present were either celebrities or A-list famous celebrities. Although Feng San didn’t want her to make a scene, the ring that Chi Ya was wearing was borrowed in his na from the brand. Worth well over a million, if it was truly lost, he would have to compensate the brand for the ring. Despite his reluctance, he still asked in a lowered voice, “Could it be that you took it off and forgot it in the restroom while washing your hands?”
“Impossible, I didn’t take it off.” Chi Ya, as if suddenly recalling sothing, let out another cry of alarm, attracting even more glances before saying, “I rember now, I accidentally bumped into soone in the restroom; could it be during that mont… that the ring got lost?”
Although Feng San was dissatisfied with her shouting, he patiently asked, “Who did you bump into?”
“I don’t know her… Let see…”
Her eyes scanned the crowd and landed accurately on Chi Enen; not sure whether it was from too much excitent or what, she grabbed Feng San’s arm, pointing at Chi Enen with delight, “It’s her! It’s her! After she bumped into , my ring disappeared!”
Because of her exaggerated excitent, her voice wasn’t quiet.
Initially, only a handful of people nearby had turned their attention to their disturbance, but now, almost half of the banquet’s attendees began to look over—
Not just at Chi Ya, but with astonishnt, they simultaneously turned their gaze to Chi Enen!
