Chapter 806 - The Star of the Show
As darkness enveloped the sky, the night appeared lonely, but the bright lights and excited chattering of people made it livelier!
In the grand banquet hall hung chandeliers, which shone brightly upon the entire hall.
Men and women were dressed to the nines as they elegantly drank from their wine glasses and chatted with those around them.
With the glimmering lights and the exchange of toasts, this elaborate gathering was bustling.
By just looking at this hall, one would know that the attendees were not average people.
Since entering the banquet hall, Qiao Jingyun’s smile had not faded.
Unable to find Ji Ziming in the crowd, she was disappointed yet relieved.
“Jingyun, who is she? Do you know her?”
Hearing this question, she gathered herself. The chilliness in her eyes faded as she smiled. “I’m not really sure. As you know, there are a lot of people who like Ziming. I’ve just returned, so I don’t really know this woman.”
…
“What’s wrong?”
With her arm hooked through Ji Ziming’s, Pei Ge inquired, puzzled. She had sensed his unhappiness from the moment they entered the banquet hall.
Unexpectedly, he gave her this reply…
“I don’t like those stares on you.”
The man scanned the crowd staring fervently at his girlfriend, and his unhappiness mounted.
Despite his chilly aura and sharp glare, those fervent gazes were still glued on her.
“Pfft!” Hearing his reply, she smiled and leaned on him sweetly.
“Relax; I have no eyes for others. You’re the only one whom I like!”
As she said that, this conservative woman gave him a peck on the cheek openly.
This sudden kiss from her made the man’s mood a lot better.
“Oh, ya! What about your Miss Qiao? Where is she? I need to get to know this benefactor of yours!”
