Chapter 325 - Playing Tricks
Chapter 325 - Playing Tricks
All the young masters would almost have fallen on their chins if there was no one beside them.
Not only they didn't want to believe their eyes, they even felt that they were having dreams or that the wine was too strong since they were seeing something none of them would ever believe if they were to be told or slapped on their faces.
Many even started to rub their eyes till they were started to turn red.
Because the thing that was happening right in front of them was completely out of their belief.
They had thought that Ji would want to slap Yuan Meng for disgracing her by giving her such a lowly gift in front of so many wealthy people.
But to their dismay, Ji didn't do what they had thought and in fact, with her trembling hands, she took the Brooch off Yuan Meng's palm carefully as if it was a treasure which she didn't want to have even a slight mark on.
She not only took it as a treasure but even brought it next to her chest as if it was very dear to her.
"Thank you Big Sister."
That was all she said before a tear passed down her cheek and then entered her lips.
"Hmm."
Yuan Meng extended her hand at Ji's hair and caressed her face lightly and didn't say anything after that.
'What is that thing that made the Young Miss so emotional?'
That was the only question in the mind of all the guards and also the middle-aged man whose lips twitched from anger.
'This witch, she won't even leave the Young miss now.'
He cursed in his heart and took a large breath and turned to Ji's cousin who was also looking at him as if asking something to him.
The middle-aged man nodded with his eyes narrowed at Ji's cousin who was surrounded by many beautiful women who were clinging onto him.
"Hmm."
"Ladies, I will come back soon."
Saying that he stood up from the couch and started to walk to the corner of the hall where Ye Qian, Yuan Meng and Ji were sitting.
The other people also made way for him upon noticing his arrival but they still had their sight locked on Yuan Meng and Ji.
Ji was holding the Brooch in her hand while caressing it with her fingers carefully and an innocent smile on her lips.
She was so much delighted that, no other gift given to her would stand in comparison to this small Brooch that was in her plans.
Even if all the gifts given to her were to be doubled she would still choose this small Brooch made of Gold and Jade.
"Cousin Ji, if you are done with your friend, then we must start seeing the guests, it's already late."
Ji was carefully looking at the Brooch when a man's voice entered her ears.
Of course, she knew who it was and her smile quickly vanished as she clutched the Brooch in her hand and turned to him.
"Cousin Lao. I am very tired can't you please send them off."
Though she was angry at him for disturbing she still couldn't lose the face of the Yuan family in front of everyone, so she would only gulp her anger.
"En? This..."
He wanted to say something when he glanced at Ye Qian and his eyes brightened.
"Fine, I will send them for you."
He then turned to the crowd and then continued in a loud voice.
"Everyone, you can enjoy the dinner."
Everyone nodded and didn't say anything.
The real reason for them to come here was to get acquainted with the Yuan's and besides that was to compare themselves with each other.
That was the most important since this kind of event when every Big Shot of the City would gather in the same place with that of the other major cities.
Lao sat beside Ye Qian with a wide smile but Yuan Meng and Ji were vigilant as his smile though might appear good to Ye Qian, for them it was similar to that of a snake.
"Hello, I am Yuan Loa, Ji's small cousin."
He exclaimed while about to extend his hand when he was stopped by a voice.
"Young Master Lao, what are you doing?"
Ye Qian felt that this cousin of Ji's was also nice and friendly so he had also extended his hand and was about to shake it with him when they heard the voice.
Yuan Meng, Ye Qian and Ji turned around to see that it was the middle-aged man who was running towards them.
"What happed Uncle?"
Lao seemed to be taken aback by the sudden exclamation by the man and asked with wide eyes.
"Young Master, this..."
Though the man didn't say anything, his gaze constantly landed on Ye Qian as if he was pointing at him and there was something wrong with him.
"What is it, Uncle?"
"Say it without fearing anything."
Lao persuaded seeing that the man seemed to be "AFRAID" of something.
"Young Master, it's not appropriate for you to get close to some people."
He didn't specify a name or point at any person, but by the looks of it, no one needed to think much that he intended that Lao should not get acquainted with Ye Qian.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong, if I want to make a new friend, Uncle Chen?"
Lao extended his hand and placed it on Ye Qian's shoulder while patting him and said to Uncle Chen.
Ye Qian felt a warmth in his heart hearing his words, he was wise to know that this Uncle Chen was indicating about him, but with Lao's words, he felt that he was a good person.
Meanwhile, beside him, Yuan Meng and Ji glanced at each other and then narrow their eyes at Lao.
How could they not understand that he was playing tricks with this Uncle Chen?
The two stood up while Yuan Meng asked Ye Qian.
"Qian'er, let's go, I am not feeling well."
"Huh, Mengmeng what happened?"
Ye Qian voice was filled with worry as she asked Yuan Meng.
