Chapter 223 - Within This Short While, Zhong Yi Fell into the Water
Except for Zhong Yi and Yi Jingxi, everyone around Luosang walked toward Nian Junting and Nian Xi.
“Ms. Zhong, Mr. Yi, please excuse me for a second. I need to go say hi to my cousins,” Ye Chuen apologized, then quickly followed behind Yu Wen and the others.
“Junting, your grandma and I were just talking about how if only you were here. And now you are here, what a surprise. I haven’t seen you in a while. You’re even more handsome than before.” Mrs. Ye just couldn’t stop grinning. Nian Junting was the future successor of Zhong Zhou Group, and his showing up could mean that he admitted the Ye Family as an important part of Zhong Zhou.
After all, a new chief brings new aids. The Murong Cheng was looking after the Ye Family for now, but who knew what would happen after Nian Junting took over the company?
While responding carelessly, Nian Junting looked around and soon found Luo Sang, who was standing by the swimming pool.
She was wearing a pure white dress today; her body was slim, and her eyes were shining, looking stunningly beautiful.
She is so the woman I like. She looks stunning even in such a simple dress, unlike Ye Chuen here. My eyes are dazzled by her dress, yet she’s not even half as pretty as Luosang.
He wondered why Luosang wasn’t looking at him, and who the man standing by her side was. As for the lady beside the man, he ignored her.
“Junting, where are you looking? Your aunt is talking to you.” Yu Wen gave Nian Junting a softly threatening glance and said, “Do you have your eyes on some girl?”
“We have so many beautiful girls at the party tonight. But the one I like the most is Director Shen’s daughter. Look, that girl in the pink dress,” Mrs. Ye said and hurriedly pointed at a girl.
Nian Junting glanced at the girl, then turned back and said, “Average.”
“You call that average…”
“Aunty, you need to improve your taste. And I’m not here for a blind date. I don’t need anyone to introduce me to any girls.”
Nian Junting glanced at Mrs. Ye. Mrs. Ye was forbade to say another word by the impatience in his eyes, but only sneakily pulled Yu Wen’s arm. If Nian Junting married Director Shen’s daughter, the Ye Family would have a stronger footing in the company.
Nian Xi sensed the strange atmosphere, so she hurriedly held Yu Wen’s hands and said, “Granny, I’m also here. Please don’t always talk about my brother—you’re making me jealous. He doesn’t like these kinds of parties because you always try to introduce him to girls.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop. But I think you need to talk to your brother. Why did he bring a dog to this occasion? What if the dog bit someone…”
Hearing their conversation, Nian Junting became extremely impatient.
He grasped the chance to gave Xiaosi a light kick. The huge Xiaosi instantly began twisting his body. As Nian Junting dropped the leash, Xiaosi immediately broke out of the crowd and rushed toward the swimming pool.
Many guests were startled by this giant dog. Xiao Si darted directly to Luosang.
Seeing the scary-looking dog rushing over, Zhong Yi panicked, automatically taking two steps backward. However, she didn’t notice that she was already at the edge of the swimming pool. Before she knew it, she tripped on her heels and fell backward.
Yi Jingxi was going to pull her, but instead of that he found that Xiaosi was pouncing on Luosang, so he reached out an arm to protect the latter without thinking.
