Mr. i was so infuriated by an unknown ruffian that he ended up in a wheelchair. The guards sent out have yet to return with any news.
So of the sycophants hurried forward to offer comfort, and the n of the i family quickly engaged with the guests, explaining the earlier incident.
Lin Wan sat beside Liang Qian, pretending as if nothing had happened, and hurriedly smoothed things over with the esteed guests at the table.
The n of the i family claid that the person likely had a grudge against their family and had co deliberately to cause trouble.
In any case, they needed to muddle through today’s events first.
As for how much people believed, that was uncertain.
However, the observant could easily see that the man just now was very likely Mr. i’s illegitimate son. So doubted it, though, because Chen Haichang looked to be only in his thirties, not much older than Han Yi.
Frankly speaking, if Mr. i’s two sons had married a few years earlier, he might well be considered a grandson.
Of course, all this was sothing Lin Wan overheard when those ladies were whispering in the bathroom.
At another table, Old Mrs. i didn’t believe it and was just pulling an old friend of hers, saying she believed in her Erqing, and that he would never do such a thing.
But the assertion was too forceful, making it seem like she was covering sothing up to an outsider.
In any case, this banquet was utterly disrupted by Chen Haichang’s uproar.
While everyone was buzzing about the earlier episode, at the entrance of the banquet hall, a flash of a pink and white gauze dress suddenly appeared.
Lin Wan noticed it first because she had seen this gauze dress before. It was a sumr gown newly designed by Wang Leqin, very ethereal.
When Lin Wan was trying on dresses, Wang Leqin also had her try this set, but she chose another one.
Unexpectedly, this dress was bought by Tao Jia. Yes, it was Tao Jia who appeared at the entrance.
She had originally worn a standard shoulder-length military hairstyle, but now she had braided small plaits on both sides fastened at the back, and today she had even put on lipstick.
This outfit completely transford her. Tao Jia was already quite good-looking; she just hadn’t known how to dress up in the army. In the past year or two, she had learned a lot about dressing from Lin Wan.
Suddenly appearing in the banquet hall, this striking beauty caught everyone’s attention.
When they found out she was the youngest daughter of the Tao family, and the wife of i Langchi from the i family, everyone drew a sharp breath. Everyone knew that since i Langchi and Tao Jia divorced, relations between the two families had been as frozen, with no contact whatsoever.
Today, Tao Jia coming over, nobody knew what reason she had, and everyone looked at her full of doubts.
Even the n of the i family, who had been working hard to ease the atmosphere, stopped their chatting and laughing with the guests.
Upon seeing the person at the door, everyone unconsciously looked toward i Langchi.
i Langchi was also puzzled. He had hardly seen Tao Jia since their divorce and didn’t know what she was doing here today.
Thinking of the last ti the i family reported him, his eyes darkened. He concluded that Tao Jia ca to stir up trouble.
Just as he was about to walk over, he saw i Lang Jun with a smile on his lips striding forward.
People watched as i Lang Jun walked up to Tao Jia, grinning, took her hand, and said sothing in a low voice, making the initially slightly awkward Tao Jia suddenly smile.
"I snuck out today."
"Don’t worry, just make an appearance, and I’ll take you back later."
"If my dad finds out, he’ll definitely kill ."
"I’ll go back with you to your house later."
"Maybe not, let’s wait till tomorrow, but you have to co and rescue ."
"Hmm."
The two walked hand in hand, whispering and laughing as they crossed the hall and stopped before Mr. i.
"i Lang Jun, what are you doing?" The first to speak was not i Lang Jun but the already enraged i Langchi. As they were walking over, he growled nacingly, "Nothing really, just thought I’d take the opportunity at Grandpa’s 80th birthday to announce my partner, Grandpa. Haven’t you and Grandma been urging to get married quickly, hoping for a great-grandchild? So today I brought her over for you to et."
"You... Tao Jia, you... i Lang Jun, don’t you know her past?" i Langchi angrily reminded i Lang Jun.
i Lang Jun raised an eyebrow, unashadly saying, "I know, so what? It’s not her fault. So n are blind, mistake pearls for cowries, and don’t know how to cherish them. I’m not blind."
