Zhen Jiahua looked unhappy, not towards his adopted daughter, but towards Jia Yuntong.
It wasn't that he didn't know what his daughter had done behind his back. He thought that he owed her a lot, so he indulged her.
But what was she doing now? Was she going to ruin the Zhen family?
"Since you're here, do whatever you want. Come and find me after the banquet."
The child that he had doted on for more than ten years was naturally in a bad mood when he found out that it was fake. After the impulse, he had already calmed down.
It was just that some things shouldn't continue to be wrong. He had already set the right path, but his daughter insisted on making trouble.
Xunmi opened her mouth. She felt that after the banquet, he would probably want to eat her up. How would he be in the mood to meet her?
But looking at Zhen Jiahua's serious eyes, she shut her mouth.
Zhen Jiahua couldn't stay with her all the time, so he left after saying a few words.
Xunmi wanted to find a corner to wait and watch the show, but she found that Madam Zhen was looking at her.
The female lead standing next to her had her head lowered. She looked very obedient, but … coupled with the sexy and luxurious dress on her body, it was really …
After thinking for a while, she walked over. "Madam Zhen, Miss Jia, ladies and ladies, good morning."
She nodded politely. Seeing that they didn't have anything to say, she left tactfully and sat down at a seat that was neither too far nor too close.
The waiter brought champagne and red wine. Xunmi chose the red wine.
The rich purplish-red color slowly flowed between her fair fingers. It was more beautiful than the bright stars on the roof.
Xunmi wasn't interested in chatting with anyone, nor did she have that thought. She was just here to go through the motions. When it was time, she would leave silently.
However, how could Jia Yuntong let her have peace? After being allowed to leave by Madam Zhen, she walked towards Xunmi with two or three young ladies who had previously fawned over her.
She hated that b * tch because she had snatched away her happiness in her previous life.
In this life, she had to make her suffer even more in order to calm the resentment in her heart. But now, what did she see?
It was obvious that the outside world had already scolded her so harshly, and even she had been firmly rejected. How could she still have the face to come out?
She was so glamorous that she had stolen the attention that belonged to her.
Today was her engagement ceremony. Those people should be looking and paying attention to her, and only her.
"Yo, I was wondering who it was. Isn't this the fake Eldest Miss? What's wrong? You don't have anywhere to go, so you came here to freeload?"
Jia YunTong's lackey number one, who often followed by her side, sneered at XunMi.
She knew how much Jia Yuntong didn't like Xunmi. Now that Jia Yuntong was doted on by the Zhen Family, they had to work harder to build a good relationship with Jia Yuntong and get a better advantage for their family.
The other one immediately added, "She probably wants to see how happy our Big Sister Yun Tong is."
"Sisters, don't say that. After all, Xunmi has a bad temper. What if she hurts you later?"
Jia Yuntong comforted him weakly, but the meaning of her words was too obvious.
The malice in his eyes was not concealed in the slightest. Taking advantage of the fact that the people outside could not see from this position, he simply tore off his disguise.
Xunmi shook her head. There was no cure for this person's stupidity.
The banquet was held in the hotel lobby. The side where she was sitting happened to be full of floor-to-ceiling windows.
Her back was facing the window, while the female lead was facing the window. That malicious face was coincidentally caught by the people who were peeking at them through the glass window.
The figure that flashed by outside was also seen clearly.
Hua Yi, who was trembling beside her commander, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
She sighed at the woman who was about to be engaged to the commander. She didn't expect the Eldest Miss of the Zhen Family to be such a person.
The news she received previously was about how arrogant and willful she was. When she saw her in person, she was even more unbearable than the information.
The weak and strong image that Jia Yuntong had maintained collapsed because of this small impulse.
She also didn't expect that the other party couldn't find out the difference between her and the imposter.
Actually, this could only be said to be a pure coincidence. Ji Mulin only knew that he had a so-called fiancée half a month ago.
He was forced by his parents to go. Naturally, he wouldn't really get engaged to someone he didn't know, so he asked his top subordinate, Hua Yi, to investigate the situation.
Coincidentally, the investigation was all about Xunmi's previous actions. This report had just been placed on Ji Mulin's desk when the Zhen Family changed their eldest miss.
Before they could update the information, their commander was assassinated. Naturally, they didn't have time to investigate further.
Therefore, all the bad things in the past were naturally blamed on the female lead. It was really worth celebrating.
If she hadn't seen the scene just now, her image of the female lead would probably be completely changed.
Unfortunately … there was no chance to do it all over again.
Xunmi didn't know that the commander had arrived. She ignored the female lead's provocation and didn't want to bother with her.
She was here to watch the show, not to be watched.
Jia Yuntong's face flushed red. She glared at Xunmi angrily. She wanted to say something, but Madam Zhen called her.
Keeping the expression on her face, Jia Yuntong walked over with a bright face and held Madam Zhen's hand. She even turned around and smiled at Xunmi.
Xunmi felt that the female lead was really good at pulling the trigger. If it were anyone else, they would have exploded on the spot.
Then, she looked away. Unknowingly, a man in a neat military uniform had appeared in the middle of the hall.
His hair was all combed back, revealing his full forehead. His honey-colored skin was especially masculine.
Under his thick eyebrows, his brown eyes shot out a cold light, making it difficult for people to get close to him.
His high nose bridge formed a perfect arc, and his thin lips were sexy.
His double-breasted old green military uniform made him look like a vigorous pine tree, sharp and determined.
When others saw this person, they were shocked at first sight. They all showed respect or tried to curry favor with him. Only Xunmi was unhappy when she saw this person.
She pouted childishly, as if the other party had made her angry. If he didn't come to coax her, she would ignore him.
And the fact was, because the person who came was not anyone else. It was the male lead that Xunmi saved a few days ago.
She still remembered the incident of her sneaking away that day.
When Ji Mulin came in, he noticed that person who was different from the others. It seemed that no matter what environment he was in, he could notice him at a glance.
Seeing that she was unhappy after seeing him, he was a little nervous. Was she still upset about what happened that day?
He really didn't mean to leave without saying goodbye, but those traitors had not been dealt with yet. He didn't dare to leave any danger for her.
No, he had to quickly solve the problem here and then beg for her forgiveness. She was so kind that she definitely wouldn't blame him.
So he said to Zhen Jiahua, who was introducing his daughter, "Sorry, I'm here to break off the engagement."
Such an emotionless sentence made Zhen Jiahua's ears go numb. The bystanders also widened their eyes in surprise.
