"Well. The new mayor has organized a charity fund in the name of the government. I heard that this money is going to provide relief funds for the earthquake in City S. After all, it was the mayor's invitation, so you can't offend others."
Zhuo Ruinian spoke like this, and then, as if he thought of something again, he looked at Ji Ran, with a little pity in his eyes, and looked at her and said:
"You are about to leave. I don't know when we will see you again in the future. You will be my evening companion tomorrow. You won't refuse me, right?"
He looked at Ji Ran pitifully, and how could Ji Ran have the nerve to refuse what he said.
In the past six years, he had tried his best to help her but never wanted to repay her. This time, she just accompanied him to the dinner party. Even if she didn't like socializing, she had no reason to reject him at this time.
"Okay, of course it's no problem, as long as you don't think I'm embarrassing you in front of outsiders."
"How could it be possible? I don't know how honored I am to have Dr. Ji as my evening companion."
"Come on, don't make fun of me about this."
"Haha, okay, okay, I won't make fun of you anymore, Doctor Ji."
"You're still here!"
Ji Ran glared at Zhuo Ruinian pretending to be displeased.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore."
He wiped away the smile on his face, looked at Ji Ran's smiling face and said, "Then I'll go home first, see you tomorrow."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
Zhuo Ruinian glanced at Ji Ran, and there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes again.
He and Ji Ran were considered close, but in this closeness, what he felt more was the closeness between brother and sister.
This time Ji Ran returns to the United States, although it is impossible not to see her forever, after all, it is just the other side of the ocean, only a few hours' flight away.
But he could no longer visit her at any time when he thought of her as usual.
He never made any demands on Ji Ran, but this time, he did.
He knew that Ji Ran felt guilty because she owed him a lot, so he wanted to give her a chance to repay him, even though such repayment might be insignificant to Ji Ran.
But maybe this will make her feel more at ease.
Tomorrow, apart from the dinner party, was also his birthday. He thought that after the dinner party, he could spend a birthday with her just for the two of them, just once.
After coming out of Ji Ran's house, he got into the car and looked at Ji Ran's closed door. He still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
The next day——
The banquet hall of the city hall is currently hosting a charity dinner to raise funds for disaster relief.
The person who organized this dinner was the newly transferred mayor from W City. Because it was the mayor's invitation, most people still gave it a good deal of respect.
Even the Jun family, who have always been arrogant, appeared at the dinner party unexpectedly, which was really surprising.
Everyone knows that the young master of the Jun family has never liked this kind of entertainment, and there is no need for the Jun family to deal with it.
Even the mayor is the same. For the Jun family, there are not many officials in high positions who have friendships. In fact, not to mention that the Jun family wants to reach out to officials, what's more, some high-ranking officials may have to come through the Jun family.
Embark on your own journey to success.
Therefore, Jun Yucheng's rare appearance at this charity dinner was really surprising. Even when his dazzling figure walked into the open banquet hall, some people started talking about it.
