Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Brother Annan, Look at (1) Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Brother Annan, Look at (1) Ji Family was at the height of its festivity.
The old master of the Ji Family had many friends, and there were even more who had connections with the family. Even though it was only a family banquet to invite close friends and relatives, the number of guests coming to convey their birthday wishes was endless.
Inside the villa and in the garden, groups of three or five guests could be found chatting everywhere.
“Where’s Wanwan?” Ji Shaoyang had just walked out from the main building when he bumped into Gu Annan, who had co alone. He was a bit surprised, “You didn’t let her take a taxi here by herself, did you?”
Gu Annan said indifferently, “I didn’t tell her.”
Ji Shaoyang was taken aback for a mont, then understanding dawned upon him as he looked at Gu Annan’s expression, “Do you think it’s not good for her to show up here? Actually, it’s fine. Although grandfather always dotes on Jiayi, as you know, he’s not senile. He won’t make things difficult for Lu Wanwan just because of this.”
“Jiayi can cause too many accidents. Let the old master enjoy his birthday in peace.” He replied in an indifferent tone and walked into the villa.
“You have a point there,” Ji Shaoyang conceded.
When he thought about this sister, he too felt a headache coming on.
She had been quiet these past few days and had agreed to study abroad. But what if Gu Annan accidentally displayed affection with Wanwan, and she beca unstable again?
Sending her abroad was the best choice. It is better to let go of things with no future earlier, for her own good as well.
Ji Jiayi was standing not too far away. When she saw Gu Annan co in, she did not rush over to him, calling out ‘Brother Annan’ as she used to.
She just watched for a while, then turned her head away resolutely.
“Not going over there?” A tall man holding fruit approached and said, “Isn’t that the man you’ve been dreaming of right there?”
Ji Jiayi shook her head, “No, I’m not going. They all think I’ve agreed to leave Manchester, so I should act convincingly. Second brother, are you… ready?”
“Of course.” Ji Jiaming responded nonchalantly. He gazed in the direction of Gu Annan and Ji Shaoyang, his eyes carrying a hint of ruthlessness, “When have I ever lied to you, sister? Since you want this man, of course I stand by your side.”
“Second brother, you’re always the best to .”
Ji Jiaming laughed softly, continuing to watch over there. He said with a cold voice, “I’ve told you before, you only have one real brother, . We’re not born from the sa mother, how could they truly consider you their sister? Gu Annan is so close with them, yet I haven’t seen him help you much, instead, he always helps outsiders.”
“But second brother, will this really work? I’m a little scared,” she expressed her worries, “What if, what if he thinks I did it on purpose? Or if he doesn’t recognize it?”
Ji Jiaming patted her head, “It’s fine, by then what he thinks won’t matter. It’s impossible for you to win this man’s heart in the short term, so we must burn the boats. He must give you an explanation!”

When Lu Wanwan arrived at the Ji Mansion, it was bustling with guests both inside and out.
She thought no one would notice her, but just as she walked in, she was stopped by soone who seed to be a bodyguard.
“Miss, this is a private residence, no admittance without invitation.”
The man in a black suit stood in front of the villa.
“Sorry, I’m here looking for soone,” Lu Wanwan said politely, “I’m looking for soone nad Gu Annan.”
“Sorry.” The man showed no intention of stepping aside.
“He is definitely here; I just can’t get through to his phone. You should know him, right? Could you find him and ask for ?”
“Sorry, can’t do.” The man kept to the sa answer.
“Acheng, who is it?”
As the standoff between the two continued, a voice ca from inside the Ji Mansion.
