The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Chapter 99 - Banquet with the pervert 2

 Ji Feifei was initially happy when she saw Ji Xiehan's car arrive. When she saw him step out of the car looking so dashing as ever, she almost drooped at the sight. It was not every day that she could admire her brother.

But her admiration turned into irritation when she saw him circle the car and help a woman out. And out of all people, it just had to be Li Lanni. 

That damned witch, what had she done to Ji Xiehan? 

However, thinking about the drama that was soon to unfold, she kept her calm.

And she was not disappointed. 

As soon as Madam Ji saw Ji Xiehan with Li Lanni at the entrance, her face became contracted and she unconsciously dropped the wineglass in her hand!

Putting on an act of the caring daughter, she hurried over and took Madam Ji's hands to check them. "Mother, are you okay? How could you be so careless? Luckily your gown isn't ruined, and you aren't injured. 

Don't worry about that girl. She..."

Madam Ji didn't notice that Ji Feifei was beside her, much less hear what she was rambling on about. 

Her attention was on the pair still close to the entrance. It seemed like... the girl that bullied Ji Feifei was really the girl that Ji Xiehan liked. And she was also the little girl she had seen together with Li Yuming years ago. 

Just as she had predicted those years ago, the girl turned out to be very beautiful, and judging from her disposition, she was well behaved too. 

She had only seen Jiang Xingyu and Lin Jian hurry over to greet the pair and didn't hear what they talked about. 

But she clearly saw that the girl simply hooked her hand with Ji Xiehan's! Unacceptable! She could not accept such a thing!

No matter how beautiful the girl was, there was no way she was going to let her son be a third party. This was the main point at the moment. In the photo Ji Feifei had shown her, the girl was with another man.

Later, she would ask the girl about it. 

Ji Xiehan felt a sharp gaze on him and turned to the direction. Then his blood went cold. 

How. Could. He. Forget? 

No wonder he had a bad intuition the day before.

How could he forget the closeness between the Ji family and the Jiang family? 

This banquet was of great importance to the Jiang family. 

Even Jiang Xingyu's parents were here. Logically, the Ji family would be here too. 

Darn it. 

He smiled at his mother in the distance and clearly saw that she shot him a questioning look. He smiled once again, to express that he would explain later. 

It all happened in less than two seconds. 

Seeing that the crisis was temporarily averted, he brought Li Lanni along to greet some guests, making Li Lanni wonder why she needed to know so many people. 

Even then, she still greeted them and conversed with them politely. A few of them with sharp eyes recognized her artistic talent from the previous competitions she had participated in, some of which she couldn't remember, and they were eager to invite her to exhibitions as a guest. At the same time, some were willing to employ her in their companies. 

Of course, she would consider going to exhibitions, but she gracefully turned down the invites to jobs. Everyone she had spoken to was pleased by her confidence and eloquence. She was so easy to talk to since she wasn't totally clueless about anything. 

Li Lanni soon became the center of attraction as Ji Xiehan's partner. 

Young master Ji, who was known to lack tender feelings towards the fairer s.e.x, brought a female companion with him today! What happened to finding females troublesome and disgusting? 

And look at the way he spoke to that woman, gentleness was oozing from his eyes.

While the bored ones were eager to watch the spectacle as it was not every day that they could gossip about Young Master Ji's love life.  They were eager to collect gossip materials which they could chat for three days and three nights.

Many young ladies, who had come to this party for the sole reason of admiring him, could hear the sounds of their hearts breaking in disappointment. 

Well, since Ji Xiehan was taken, Jiang Xingyu was an option too. 

 Li Lanni didn't seem to be intimidated by being the center of attraction. She casually continued to chat with Ji Xiehan and other guests. Her every little action was full of grace.

A while later, Ji Xiehan went to receive a phone call, so she strolled around, casually picking a glass of wine from a waitress. 

Even she wondered how she knew all those things. She had been keeping herself up to date with most things so she wouldn't stick out in such circ.u.mstances, but she knew that some of those things she had said were unknown to her. 

She blinked her long eyelashes and sipped on her wine as she thought of a possibility. She must have learned them before losing her memory, and now she was starting to remember. This was a good sign!

She was still basking in her newfound joy when a chubby waitress suddenly bumped into her! 

She had a few wine glasses on her tray, and most of them toppled, a few crashing onto the floor. 

Li Lanni was not able to dodge in time, resulting in her gown getting stained.

She sighed as she looked down at her gown sadly. There goes a million dollar gown; her mother had explicitly chosen for her. She wondered if it could be restored again. 

"I'm sorry." The chubby waitress apologized, even though she didn't look sorry at all. 

"It's alright." Li Lanni said regardless and was now thankful that she had taken her mother's advice and carried an extra dress for emergencies like these. 

She looked up to see that the waitress was still looking at her. They were attracting attention, which Li Lanni didn't like.
