Chapter 132: An Accident at Ji Hengzhong's Birthday Party
With the skillful hands of a famous designer, Siyang's long hair was tied into a complicated and gorgeous bun, with sparkling rhinestone hair accessories. A little powder was applied to her face, and her slightly thin lips were painted with
The crimson color makes her look plump and plump. The pink and purple slim-fitting dress makes her pretty face even more beautiful, which can even be called charming.
"Manager Ji, are you satisfied with it?" the designer looked at Ji Zhehan who was looking at the heroine in a daze and asked.
"Yang Yang, you are so beautiful today. I finally understand what three points of appearance and seven points of dressing up mean."
"You mean I'm ugly? It can be said that now I have turned decay into magic." Liu Siyang joked, looking at the person in the mirror and she was intoxicated, especially when she saw Ji Zhehan staring at her eyes, her heart
She was even more panicked. In order to cover herself up, she could only joke to calm her tense nerves.
"Yang Yang, that's not what I meant." Ji Zhehan quickly defended, fearing that Siyang might misinterpret her meaning.
"just kidding with you."
The hotel we booked was already splendid. Many people had already arrived and it was bustling.
"You're very nervous about this kind of situation, aren't you?" Ji Zhehan obviously felt that the little hand he was holding was cold.
"A bit." Liu Siyang tried her best to calm down, just treat it as acting. Treat it as acting? Haha, is it originally acting? She laughed at herself.
"Get over there first." Ji Zhehan pulled her towards a corner of the hotel.
"what happened again?"
"This is for you." Ji Zhehan put on a smile and took out a red velvet box from his pocket and gave it to Siyang.
Liu Siyang looked at him puzzled: "What is this?"
"You'll know after you open it and take a look."
Liu Siyang glanced at him doubtfully, and since she didn't want to say anything, she opened it and took a look. However, when she opened it, an exclamation escaped from her mouth, and she looked at Ji Zhehan in confusion, seeking the answer.
"Do you like it?" Ji Zhehan suddenly smiled sweetly and looked at Siyang like a child wanting to be praised.
"I like it very much. Very beautiful sapphire necklace! Are you planning to give it to your girlfriend?" Liu Siyang felt a hint of bitterness in her heart. Obviously she thought Ji Zhehan wanted to ask for her opinion, and thought Ji Zhehan wanted to ask her about this necklace to give to his girlfriend.
Good.
"Put it on!"
"Give it to me?"
"Probably." Ji Zhehan smiled slyly.
"Why?" Liu Siyang's expression was serious, and there was not much joy on his face.
Ji Zhehan didn't expect Liu Siyang to have such a reaction. He thought she would be very excited and happy. Although Liu Siyang doesn't like gems, pearls and the like very much, this necklace is indeed very unique, with simple and elegant workmanship.
Even he likes it.
"Why give it to me?" Liu Siyang hasn't gotten the exact answer yet. Although she likes it very much, there must be a reason.
"Just think of it as thank you."
"It's too expensive!" Liu Siyang finally understood. It turned out to be a thank you to the girlfriend he had always thought was pretending to be him. The sweetness that had just arisen was mixed with other flavors.
She put the lid back on and handed it to Ji Zhehan: "You don't have to be so polite. After all, you helped me too."
"Then just think of it as a show for everyone. In such an occasion, if you don't have any decent jewelry, no one will believe it."
Liu Siyang thought about it for a long time, and there were more and more people at the banquet. Although the two of them were hiding in a corner, they still attracted many people's guessing looks.
"Okay, I'll accept it."
Ji Zhehan helped her take it out and put it on. This gemstone necklace really added to her look and matched her dress very well.
"I will return it to you after the banquet is over." Liu Siyang sighed lightly. Since he had decided to help him, he would just help him to the end. But he didn't expect that the more he helped, the more heartbroken he would be.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to cooperate with you in this scene." Liu Siyang smiled reluctantly.
"Yang Yang..." Ji Zhehan opened his mouth and closed it again.
Although it was said to be a birthday party, the people present were all the elites of various companies who had been Lan Yu's clients in the past, as well as some close relatives of investors and shareholders, as well as uncles and uncles named on the board of directors, and there were many people who brought their beautiful daughters with them.
The admiring and hostile looks made Liu Siyang's nerves tense. Especially the disdainful and hostile looks cast by the daughters of the elite. Needless to say, they must have come to see Ji Zhehan with their families to see if they could get married.
The appearance of Liu Siyang caused them to lose their chance.
Liu Siyang suddenly understood why Ji Zhehan had to confess to his goddess after Ji Hengzhong's birthday party. He must have done this because he was afraid that she couldn't stand the hostile looks of so many people and that she wouldn't adapt to the occasion here.
Yes. She is really a happy person, and as for her, does he really think that she is made of steel and can withstand the eyes like swords and guns?
Happy people! Like her.
Poor thing! It's her.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Ji Zhehan asked, noticing the wandering and melancholy eyes of the people around him.
"It's nothing, I'm fine." Liu Siyang forced himself to calm down and smiled lightly.
Just after he finished speaking, Ji Zhehan said to an oncoming elder in a very respectful tone: "Hello, Uncle Liu, welcome to my father's birthday party."
The other party smiled and patted Ji Zhehan on the shoulder, praising him frequently as a rare handsome and excellent business wizard. He glanced at Liu Siyang and praised him, saying that Ji Zhehan had a vision and so on.
In the next ten minutes, the situation was more or less the same. Occasionally, there were some inquiries into the relationship between the two, but Ji Zhehan said, "This is my girlfriend Yang Yang."
Not far away, Jingshu, Jingyun, Ji Hengzhong, and Zuo Weihao were also staring directly at the two of them, saying something.
Ji Zhehan couldn't help but take Liu Siyang's arm and walk forward. Liu Siyang was a little shy. In the past, she was always in front of Jingshu and Ji Hengzhong, but this time she felt really awkward dressed like this.
"Yang Yang is so beautiful today!" Jing Shu and Jing Yun said these words almost at the same time with bright smiles, which made Liu Siyang's cheeks flush even more.
Zuo Weihao and Ji Hengzhong also nodded slightly. It was obvious that they were very satisfied with her.
Especially when they saw the sapphire necklace on Liu Siyang's neck, Ji Hengzhong and Jingshu showed expressions of relief. This sapphire necklace is an heirloom of their family. Wearing it means that it will be theirs soon.
She is the daughter-in-law of the Ji family.
"We've almost arrived, we can start." Jingshu reminded from the side, and she felt a lot more at ease.
"Sister, what's so important?" Jingyun could no longer hold back and asked several times, but Jingshu just smiled mysteriously and didn't answer.
"Don't worry, the announcement will be made soon." Zuo Weihao pulled his wife, put his arm around her waist, and whispered.
Liu Siyang looked at the two couples in front of him and couldn't help but feel envious. It was really rare to still be so in love with each other after being married for decades. He just vaguely felt that something was about to happen. Yes, what was the importance of what Jingyun just said?
What is the matter? Could it be that Lan Yu has made any big moves? As an assistant to the general manager, how could she not hear any news at all?
Jingshu smiled at Zhehan and Siyang, saying in her heart: Zhehan, Yang Yang, don't blame us, it was you who forced us.
"Everyone, be quiet." Ji Hengzhong's rich voice sounded, and the surrounding area became quiet, which was enough to show the great influence he had. Everyone listened to him with wine glasses in their hands.
"I would like to thank you all for coming to Ji's birthday party. Ji invited so many people here today, and there is something important I want to announce -" Ji Hengzhong paused.
Liu Siyang looked around, and everyone's eyes were focused on Ji Hengzhong.
"Today I would like to introduce two young people to you." After Ji Hengzhong said this, he looked at Liu Siyang.
"Two young people?" Liu Siyang panicked, it couldn't be him and Ji Zhehan.
No, what does the president want to do? Look at Jingshu on the side, who is also looking at him expectantly. Liu Siyang involuntarily made a decision: run away.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped back, his waist was held by a hand behind him. It was Ji Zhehan.
"Relax." Ji Zhehan whispered in her ear. He also had an ominous omen, but he couldn't leave the occasion.
"The two young people I want to introduce to you, one is Quanzi-Zhehan, I believe many people know him. The other is my future daughter-in-law, Miss Liu Siyang."
"Me? It's really me." The soles of Liu Siyang's feet felt weak, but Jing Shu pulled her over.
"Hello everyone, I am Liu Siyang." Unprepared, Liu Siyang had no choice but to bow to everyone.
"Oh, this lady is really the future wife of the Ji family."
“Not bad, very elegant.”
Soon there was a sound of admiration, mixed with a few words of course: "It's nothing special, looks just average, and the Ji family's taste is not that bad." Without raising his head, Liu Siyang knew that those who wanted to climb up were
The upper-class ladies of the Shangji family.
"What I want to announce is that on the 18th of next month, the two of them will hold an engagement ceremony. Ji will inform everyone here in advance, and I hope you can come to attend. I will take over the position of president on that day.
Leave the gift to Zhehan, I hope you can support Zhehan and Lan Yu just like you supported me!"
Applause, thunderous applause.
Liu Siyang looked at Ji Hengzhong and Jingshu speechlessly, what should she do? Ugh.
"We'll talk about it after everything is over." Ji Zhehan was no less surprised than Liu Siyang. He didn't expect that Ji Hengzhong and Jingshu would come up with this trick. It was really "insidious", although these two words are not suitable to be used for his closest relatives.
person, but other than it, he really couldn't find a word that was more suitable to describe his parents at this time.
Liu Siyang tried his best to keep smiling. Many people came over to congratulate the two of them. In order to maintain the image of the Ji family and prevent the headline "President Lan Yu's daughter-in-law fainted due to excessive excitement" from appearing in the newspaper tomorrow, she had no choice but to sacrifice for the time being.
.
If Ji Zhehan's gentle big hand hadn't been holding her little hand, she would have been unable to hold on. After finally waiting for the guests to leave, Liu Siyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dad, Mom, what's going on? You didn't give us any notice?" The guests were all sent away, and Ji Zhehan could finally ask his doubts.
"That's right, uncle and aunt, we are not prepared at all." Liu Siyang said softly, for fear of angering Ji Hengzhong, she always reminded herself that Ji Hengzhong was a heart disease patient.
"If you had agreed to the engagement earlier, your mother and I wouldn't have bothered to come up with this idea." Listening to Ji Hengzhong's words, he seemed to be a man who had been aggrieved. He originally thought that Siyang was wearing an heirloom of the Ji family.
, the two of them will be happy that he made such a decision.
"Yang Yang, Zhehan, I admit that what we did was inappropriate, but we also have good intentions. Who made you not want to get engaged for so long?" Jingshu quibbled while looking at the two children apologetically. Thinking of Yang's panic just now
She could see that she couldn't bear it in her heart, but in order to fulfill his and Ji Hengzhong's wish to see the next generation as soon as possible, she could only be selfish for a moment.
Ji Zhehan and Liu Siyang looked at each other silently for a while, and now it was their fault. These two old men were really capable of being unreasonable and cunning. But they were elders, so they had no way to refute.
"Don't you want to get married at all? You don't want to marry Yang Yang?" Ji Hengzhong looked at Ji Zhehan suspiciously. The Ji family heirloom was clearly hanging around Liu Siyang's neck, which already showed that Si Yang would soon become the Ji family's heirloom.
daughter-in-law, he just made a date for them without notifying them.
Ji Zhehan's eyes were serious and he held Siyang's hand: "It is a fact that I love Yang Yang. Sooner or later I will get engaged and marry her, but not now."
Ji Zhehan's words made Liu Siyang blush. Even though he knew that this was just a play and that Ji Zhehan's words were just a line in the play, she still felt her heart pounding and couldn't move her face.
Hong, out of breath. She actually began to fantasize about how great it would be if Ji Zhehan really confessed to her.
"That's good, it's settled. On the 18th of next month, if you've already informed me, don't change it. I'm a man of my word, and I don't want to break my promise on this kind of thing." Ji Hengzhong was still a little confused after hearing Ji Zhehan's confession.
Uneasy, he glanced at the two of them with a smile and gave the order, his tone unquestionable.
"Yang Yang, I'm sorry. I didn't expect my dad and mom to do this. Please don't blame them. They were just too eager. They didn't mean any harm." Looking at Ji Hengzhong and his wife's car driving away, Ji Zhehan pulled Liu
Siyang got into the car, but it was too late. He should have sent her back. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the beautiful atmosphere of his father's birthday and confess his love to Siyang after the birthday party. Unexpectedly, his parents took the lead and let him
Become at a loss.
There was silence for a long time, and Liu Siyang didn't say anything.
She should be resentful, shouldn't she? Originally she only wanted to pretend for a few days, but now, it's just like the real thing. But why can't she resent it? She even thought about how bad it would be if this were true.
good.
Crazy, must be crazy. Liu Siyang cursed herself. No, it's time to cut off the love thread quickly. If this continues, she will really lose herself, and she will be trapped and unable to extricate herself.
Disappointment is inevitable, but don't be sad. She comforted herself by deceiving herself.
"Here, I'll give it back to you." Liu Siyang took off the necklace and handed it to Ji Zhehan."
"Take it."
"I shouldn't have it." A bitter smile appeared on Liu Siyang's lips.
"Put it in here, keep it with you for a while, and then consider whether to return it to me." Ji Zhehan took out the red velvet box.
"All right."
Liu Siyang gently put the gem necklace inside and held it in his hand.
"I don't blame you, nor my uncle or aunt. I just ask you to find a way to prevent this from developing, okay?"
"Okay." Ji Zhehan agreed readily, but he was denying it in his heart: "How can things be so simple? There's no telling what it will be like tomorrow."
