The grand banquet was held in the double, luxurious hall. There were gorgeous crystal chandeliers, priceless masterpieces, beautiful frescoes, the fragrance of clothes, and all the guests dressed in extravagant attire. They chatted and laughed merrily as they toasted each other.
The moment he stepped into this place, it was as if he had blended into a completely different world. Everything here was elegant and civilized.
Ji Anning held Ji Tianci's arm, and she calmly looked around at his surroundings, not showing any expression of extreme excitement. However, her identity allowed her to stand there calmly and at ease.
Ji Tianci's gaze moved around without leaving a trace as he searched for Gong Yuze's figure. When the waiter came forward, he did not forget to give Ji Anning a cup of grape juice. Ji Anning drank the juice as he walked amongst the guests.
Most of those who came here today were Western people, so it was easy to guess who they were. At this moment, Gong Yuze was standing between a few of the world's wealthiest people, his eyes shining like the bright moon.
Ji Tianci felt a sense of pressure from the group of guests that he had received.
The Ji Clan's assets could only rise steadily every year, and they could only be considered wealthy. However, they could not match up to the wealth of the Royal Clan. Even in the entire world, there were only a few families that could compare to the Gong Clan.
Of course, no one would be willing to carefully estimate the assets of the Gong Family right now, because if they were afraid, it would take a lot of teams to barely be able to count the tip of the iceberg!
Therefore, even the media did not dare to release the amount, they were afraid that if they were to release it, it would arouse the Palace's displeasure and ridicule.
Ji Anning didn't know that Ji Tianci had brought her here for a hidden reason.
Ji Tianci just happened to see a business friend of his standing next to Gong Yuze, chatting with a few other business friends. Ji Tianci thought for a second, then turned to Ji Anning and said, "An Ran, accompany me there to get to know a friend."
"Hm!" "Alright!" Ji Anning pursed his lips and laughed. She followed Ji Tianci to the front of this friend of his. The current Gong Yuze had his back facing him while she, too, had her back facing him.
Ji Tianci naturally greeted his friends, "Hi Lu Ke, how have you been recently?"
Lu Ke was so excited that she wanted to hug him. Ji Tianci let him hug his a little, but when Lu Ke saw the girl beside him, he also wanted to take advantage of his, so he opened his arms and hugged her.
Ji Anning could not help but be shocked, and hurriedly retreated. Ji Tianci wanted to stop his good friend from acting recklessly, who was Ji Anning running into on his back …
She panicked a little, planning to see who was hit. The person who was hit just happened to turn around to see who was so rude.
Gong Yuze turned his head around, and Ji Anning also turned around. As he was already close, in his panic, the grape juice he was holding in his glass spilled all over the man's white silk shirt.
Two people, two pairs of eyes, a pair of eyes staring over, cold and angry, a pair of eyes raised, flustered to the extreme.
However, when the two of them clearly saw each other's faces …
It was as if all the sounds at the banquet had been instantly expelled. Only the person in front of him remained. It had been a long time since they had seen each other, and they were filled with disbelief ….
Ji Anning's chest felt like it had been struck by lightning and she stopped reacting to anything. Even the panic in her eyes was clearly visible in his pure pupils. She had never thought that the person he had bumped into would be him!
And why wouldn't Gong Yuze be shocked? In a place like this, on a occasion like this, to see a woman who had ruthlessly stabbed him three years ago pushed right in front of him without any warning, breaking his vow to never see her again.
Ji Tianci's eyes were calm as he stood at the side. However, when Lu Ke wanted to come over and apologize, he was pulled by him.
Lu Ke didn't know that a joke of his would cause this beautiful girl to be in such trouble.
Gong Yuze simply didn't have the time to care about his dirty shirt and suit. He just looked at the woman who bumped into him expressionlessly, and even splashed his own grape juice all over.
's eyes were starting to turn red, tears started to roll down her cheeks. She looked like she was about to hit an acupuncture point, as she was sealed in Gong Yuze's cold eyes, like a defenseless person who had been pricked into a river.
Just as her tears were about to fall, Ji Tianci stretched out his arm and pulled her into his embrace. A tissue he had prepared long ago wiped off her face, and at this moment, Ji Tianci's heart was also feeling stuffy and pained.
He didn't expect that this test would cause her so much pain. She wanted to cry without saying a word.
Now, all the answers were right in front of his eyes. They knew each other, had met each other, and perhaps had even loved each other deeply.
Gong Yuze's eyes were filled with a cold luster. When Ji Tianci pulled Ji Anning away, a tinge of anxiousness flashed across his face. He glanced over coldly, and Ji Tianci said politely and apologetically, "I'm sorry, my female companion offended you. I will compensate you with the price for your clothes."
Ji Anning's face was buried lightly in Ji Tianci's chest, when they suddenly met, it made her flustered and frightened, making her even more at a loss of what to do.
Gong Yuze's gaze swept across the woman Ji Tianci was holding, and he said coldly, "No need!" After saying that, he walked in the direction of the door.
"Yuze, wait for me!" Behind him, Manly catches up with him.
Ji Anning immediately raised his head and saw a girl affectionately holding onto him with concern on her arm.
So he also had a girl by his side, was he leaving now?
The direction that Gong Yuze was heading towards was not towards the exit of the banquet hall, but the direction of the washroom. He said to Manli behind him, "Call my assistant and have him bring over a set of clean clothes immediately."
"Gong Xiansheng, are you still going to stay at the banquet?" Manli asked in surprise. She thought he was going to leave!
Gong Yuze did not answer her, but instead went to the washroom. Manli immediately took out her phone and called Ye Sen, telling him everything that had happened just now.
In the quiet male restroom, Gong Yuze's tall body was resting on the surface of the wash basin. In the mirror, he could see his current expression, which was as handsome as a sculpture. Because of some emotion, he was currently filled with hostility and malice, his palms had tightened into fists, and under his thin lips, his cheekbones were slightly protruding, showing that he was grinding his teeth.
Why would she suddenly appear here? How could she be with another man?
