Because the Jiang family took over the Shang family's investment project, their status in Kyoto has grown significantly in the past two years.
But even so, they were originally not qualified to attend the birthday dinner of the eldest son of the Shang family.
Jiang Rushi knew very well that the success of her family in getting to where it was today was due to Mr. Liu, her sister Jiang Ruyue's father.
And Mr. Liu's sister is the wife of a young master from a branch of the Shang family.
Through this relationship, their family was able to obtain the Shang family's investment project and the invitation letter for today's dinner.
Jiang Rushi's purpose for coming to the dinner was also very clear. It would be best if she could be better than her sister and catch a young master of the Shang family.
When she thought about it, the young nobles who kept coming to chat with her became boring to her.
until--
"Second Young Master Shang is out."
I don't know who suppressed the excitement and shouted.
Just this sentence made everyone in the main living room focus on one place.
The second young master of the Shang family, Shang Xunming?
Jiang Rushi's eyes lit up, and she followed the others' gaze and looked towards the entrance of the main living room.
A young and handsome man walked into the main living room surrounded by several bodyguards.
He was wearing a well-tailored haute couture suit. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall and stood out in the crowd.
Just like the rumors.
Shang Xunming has a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, a high bridge of nose, a curl of the corners of his mouth and a smile, which gives people an irresistible affinity.
As the protagonist of today's banquet, my brother can be said to be the focus of everyone's attention at this moment. Most people can't help but walk towards him and say hello.
Shang Xunming was also very patient and responded to everyone with a smile.
There were also some wealthy daughters who couldn't help but blush shyly when they saw him, pretending to be brave and came up to say hello.
Shang Xunming responded in a very gentlemanly manner and said considerately: "There are many people tonight, so the reception may not be good, but if you ladies have any needs, you can ask our service staff."
"Ah... I'm a little cold. Can I borrow a piece of clothing from the Second Young Master?" A bold daughter of a certain family deliberately made such a request to get closer.
Shang Xunming looked at her and smiled, took off his suit jacket and handed it over, "Ms. Zhang, please remember to return it to me."
Ms. Zhang: “!”
The other daughters said: "!!!" How could this be possible! It's so sad!
Compared with the rumors outside, Shang Xunting, the eldest son of the Shang family, is aloof and difficult to approach, but Shang Xunming is actually like the rumors, a dandy young master with a well-known reputation.
See this scene.
Jiang Rushi was very excited.
She looked at the daughter of the Zhang family who was handed the coat. She was average-looking, far behind her.
Maybe she can also find a chance to strike up a conversation with Second Young Master Shang!
The more Jiang Rushi thought about it, the more excited she became, and she couldn't help but whisper a few words to Jiang's father.
Father Jiang understood what she meant and immediately led him towards Shang Xunming.
However, before taking a few steps, Jiang Rushi's hand was grabbed by someone.
She turned around and saw the person coming, and was surprised: "Sister?"
Jiang Ruyue's eyes were still slightly red, but when she faced Jiang Rushi, her expression was much calmer and she lowered her voice and said, "Come with me."
Jiang Rushi was puzzled, "I still want to go with my father to meet the second young master of the Shang family."
"Yes! Ruyue, look at what a great opportunity you have. Why don't you wait a moment and wait until your sister and Second Young Master Shang finish talking before looking for you?"
Jiang's father is also focused on his face. It is indeed good for his eldest daughter to help him control Mr. Liu, but now that there is an opportunity for his younger daughter to curry favor with the young master of the Shang family, how can he let it go?
After listening to what the two said, Jiang Ruyue's mood was indescribably complicated. She felt that her father and sister were really distracted, and they dared to think about the second young master of the Shang family.
At the same time, she couldn't help feeling aggrieved.
Thinking of Liu Ji's warning, her heart tightened and she said to the two of them, "It's Mr. Liu who wants to see Rushi."
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father's face changed slightly and he felt a little difficult to handle.
After all, Liu Ji is their current leader, and Shang Ershao is their future leader...
"Dad, Second Young Master Shang is not something we can imagine. Even if Rushi really wants to marry someone from the Shang family, she can only marry a branch of the Shang family. Otherwise, do you think Second Young Master Shang will fall in love with Rushi at first sight?"
Jiang Ruyue's few words directly exposed the little thoughts of Jiang's father and Jiang Rushi's father and daughter.
Jiang Rushi is very confident in herself.
She has always felt that she is prettier than her sister, and now she is young, in a prestigious school, and has the title of school beauty. Why can't she be loved at first sight by the second young master of the Shang family?
Moreover, the Jiang family has also been rising, and it is on the rise. Unlike her sister, when she first fawned over Mr. Liu, the Jiang family was in decline.
When the real second young monk comes online, he will definitely not be disliked because of his low family background.
Thinking of this, the arrogant Jiang Rushi couldn't help but refute Jiang Ruyue: "Sister, what if I can? If Second Young Master Shang really falls in love with me, our Jiang family will not serve you as well as you do now."
Mr. Liu Qiang?”
Better than her?
This sentence made Jiang Ruyue so angry that she almost fell out on the spot.
However, I still suppressed my anger in the end.
Jiang Ruyue looked at Father Jiang and Jiang Rushi coldly, "I'm just a messenger. Father, if you are not afraid of being kicked out by Mr. Liu, you can take Rushi to curry favor with Second Young Master Shang."
"this……"
Father Jiang's expression completely changed.
I also understood what my eldest daughter meant. Today, Mr. Liu and Jiang Rushi must meet.
Jiang Rushi was reluctant at first, but after hearing what her sister said, she thought that she got the invitation letter because of Mr. Liu. He did have the ability to drive their father and daughter out of the banquet directly, so don't say anything then
When they meet Second Young Master Shang, both father and daughter will become the laughing stock of the entire Kyoto!
Jiang Rushi, who had worked hard to build herself into a wealthy family, didn't want to fail, so she could only grit her teeth and put her arms around Jiang Ruyue, "Sister, I'll go with you."
Although she didn't know why Mr. Liu wanted to see her, she thought it wouldn't take much effort. If she went early and came back early, she might be able to strike up a conversation with Second Young Master Shang.
When Jiang's father saw that his youngest daughter had said this, he naturally stopped stopping her and watched Jiang Ruyue take Jiang Rushi away.
The guest rooms on the second floor of the manor have oversized balconies.
Xiao Shang told Chi Zao and Xiao Yu: "This is the rest room with the best view on the second floor. You two can stand on the balcony and look at the scenery. There is also a set of telescopes prepared here so you can see the stars in the sky."
As he spoke, he opened the curtains on the balcony.
As soon as I pushed open the floor-to-ceiling glass door, I heard a commotion coming from downstairs...
"Um?"
Xiao Shang was confused. When he went out and took a look, his face suddenly changed: "No, someone fell into the swimming pool."
Before Chi morning, I found that the balcony where they were sitting could just see the large swimming pool that I saw when passing by on the first floor. At this moment, several people were already running towards the swimming pool...
"Boy, I'm very sorry, I have to excuse myself first."
After saying this, the merchant quickly walked out of the room.
Chi Zao frowned slightly and glanced at Xiao Yu beside him.
Xiao Yu also looked at her, "Is there something wrong with the swimming pool?"
Chi Zao nodded.
Xiao Yu understood and said: "Then let's go down and have a look."
"Um."
The two went downstairs.
As I was walking towards the swimming pool, I happened to meet Shang Xunming who was walking in a hurry.
