"Mongkey, are you looking for a fight!"
...
Ruan ngxi was sitting not far away and saw Tang Wan coming over, she imdiately went up to greet her.
"How long have they been sparring?"
"Over twenty minutes, it’s unbearable." Even Ruan ngxi couldn’t stand it.
Tang Wan smiled, but her peripheral vision suddenly caught a group of people sitting not far away. Seeing soone familiar, she imdiately nodded in greeting to them.
The group wasn’t strangers; they were people from the circle who were close to Duan Linbai.
Among them, Fu Sinian and Song Fengwan had attended Tang Wan’s wedding. Not deep acquaintances, but not unfamiliar faces either, so sitting next to them, however, seed a bit more unfamiliar.
"Over there, from left to right, is the eldest grandson of the Fu Family — Fu Sinian, his wife, whom you’ve probably seen on TV, is a host. Next to them is the Chuanbei Family’s Jing Liuyu..."
Ruan ngxi, when she was Qi Zeyan’s assistant, had morized these people from Beijing, so she hadn’t seen in person but had seen photos.
This group also counts as Duan Linbai’s "circle of friends", yet sitting on the side eating snacks, their expressions were rather disdainful.
Tang Wan looked at the group and saw they all had such striking looks, especially sitting together, anyone couldn’t help but take a second glance, she purely appreciated until a voice pulled her thoughts back.
"Mr. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, welco, welco—"
Si Yushan and You Yunzhi had arrived.
"Mr. Si." Jiang Zhenhuan shook hands with him politely.
"Thank you for coming, don’t just stand there, sit down and take a rest." You Yunzhi invited them to sit, the two families gathered together, making it particularly lively.
"Mrs. Si, where’s your daughter?" Fan Mingyu asked while looking around with a smile.
"She’s been busy helping with the birthday party. She just got so ti, changing clothes now, when she’s out, I’ll have her co over to say hello."
You Yunzhi ant this as an indirect boast about her daughter laboring for her birthday party, indicating she’s capable.
The expression and deanor were full of pride.
...
The gathering of these two families began to prompt whispers among those around them.
"The Jiang Family really showed a lot of face today, so many ca."
"Even representatives from the Fu Family and the Beijing’s Chuanbei Family ca, the Si Family’s face is really significant."
"But indeed, many from the Jiang Family ca today, even Jiang Shiyi and Jiang Chengsi, who usually don’t attend parties, showed up. Tonight is really lively."
**
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, as the Si Family couple was already greeting other guests, and the Jiang Family didn’t have ti to sit because there were always people coming over to greet them.
"Mr. Jiang, long ti no see." At this mont a father and son duo, both in sharp suits, approached.
"Mr. Lou, it’s been a while." Jiang Zhenhuan greeted them politely.
Jiang Jinsang, now working at the company, naturally recognized this father-son duo from Mingyu Group, though hadn’t interacted directly, exchanged so pleasantries.
But he suddenly heard soone next to him snort disdainfully.
"Fourth brother?" Jiang Jinsang turned his head to look at him, "Don’t like this duo?"
"I find them fake."
"You aren’t familiar with them, are you?"
"Not really, but I’ve seen Lou Hao ’entangling’ Xiaoxiao, even You Hongxian introduced him to Xiaoxiao. The Si Family hasn’t been in Beijing much, might not know Lou Hao, but I don’t believe that You Hongxian doesn’t know and he actually introduced such a guy to Xiaoxiao?" Jiang Chengsi snorted coldly, "Isn’t this purposely pushing her into the fire pit?"
Jiang Jinsang subconsciously rubbed his fingers, realizing there’s this layer of relationship.
When he looked up again, he saw the Lou Family duo and You Hongxian standing together, whispering to each other.
Soon, You Hongxian went out, and when he returned, so people resembling photographers followed, probably to docunt the event. Typically at a household gathering, people would have photographers to record the mories, quite normal.
This group had a designated area and were mindful, responsible only for recording without disturbing guests.
"There’s soone not only filming but there seems to be a reporter." Jiang Chengsi held a drink, sipped softly.
Jiang Jinsang only smiled and turned his head, "Fourth brother, are you nervous?"
", what am I nervous about!"
Jiang Chengsi was purely stubborn, yet at this mont, he was feeling quite uneasy inside.
Thus he continuously sipped his drink, giving himself sothing to do, relieving his tense, anxious mood.
...
Guests arrived one after another, champagne silhouettes, glasses clinking, crystal chandeliers, symphonies, the banquet hadn’t even started and it was already very lively.
