She did not want to lose face for the Ouyang Family, so in the afternoon the day before, she went to the Dress Shop and picked out an evening dress to attend the banquet. Gong Yuze accompanied her, and even gave her a set of jewelry, which was expensive.
Ji Anning knew that his family was so rich that he did not care about the amount of money. As long as she liked it, he would not hesitate.
In the blink of an eye, the anticipated second day arrived. Amidst their busy schedule, it was already three in the afternoon. Gong Yuze brought Ji Anning and set off, they first went back to the Ouyang Family to attend the banquet with their families.
In the presidential suite of a five-star hotel, in front of a huge circular window, Ji Tianci had one hand in his pocket as he gazed at the scenery in the distance. He had been hesitating on whether or not to attend this banquet. Last night, Gong Yuze had personally called to invite him, and he did not refuse.
But now, when he thought about it carefully, this was simply a banquet organized by the Ouyang Family. Even if he did not need to go, it would not be rude.
Furthermore, the people of the Ouyang Family might not welcome him.
Ji Anning had been waiting for Ji Anning in his room the entire time. Ji Anning came up with her dress, and the two girls dressed each other in their room, put on makeup, and did things that girls liked to do.
Gong Yuze sat in the hall, accompanying Ouyang Burong to drink tea and chat.
"Why didn't you let Young Master Ji come over?"
"He said he'd be there later." Gong Yuze picked up his teacup and took a sip, but just then, his phone that was placed on the table rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Ji Tianci, he picked up his phone and said to Ouyang Burong, "I'll pick up a call." Ouyang Burong smiled and lowered his head. Even in his dreams, he never thought that he would be able to get married to the Gong Family. This family had the strongest relationship in the business world, and he had vaguely heard that the Gong Family had a close relationship with the Royal Family of the Z Nation. Therefore, all the other families were present.
When he was worried about the decline, this family would definitely be able to continue to prosper. In addition, the descendants of the Gong Family were all geniuses.
Gong Yuze held his phone and walked to the hall, then went to the garden to pick it up, "Hey, Brother Tianci."
"Yuze, help me tell your future father-in-law that I have something to do tonight, so I won't be going over." Ji Tianci's voice sounded from the other end.
Gong Yuze was slightly disappointed, but, this kind of thing could not be forced, so he replied, "Alright, I will pass it on."
"Hm!" "Then you guys have fun, I'll hang up first." With that, Ji Tianci hung up first.
Ouyang Burong also felt that it was a pity, he really hoped that Ji Tianci would come to participate in this banquet, so as to ease the grudges between the two families. However, Ji Tianci still rejected him.
Inside the room, Ouyang Mengyue had already changed into her evening dress. The light golden fishtail dress on her body was extremely beautiful, her long hair was braided on her forehead, and half of her hair was held up by pearl hair buttons at the back of her head, making her look beautiful and dignified.
"Xiao Yue, you are so beautiful tonight. You will definitely charm many men." Ji Anning praised her with a smile.
A hint of embarrassment flashed past Ouyang Mengyue's eyes, and she was secretly looking forward to it. She really didn't need a lot of men to look at her and like her, as long as one person could notice that she was very beautiful today.
Ji Anning was wearing an expensive sequined evening dress, 3D cut, 3D waist design, and fitting body lines, as if it was tailor-made for her. The design of the collar made her elegant swan-like neck lines, extremely enchanting.
Ouyang Mengyue smiled as he sized her up, "Elder sister, this evening dress is so beautiful, I'm afraid brother-in-law won't even dare to move his eyes away tonight!"
Ji Anning snorted, "How could it be so exaggerated."
"I think so. He definitely won't allow other men to look at you too much."
Just as he was speaking, a knock came from outside the door. Ji Anning went forward to open the door, who else could it be if not Gong Yuze?
"Why did you come up?" Under his scorching gaze, Ji Anning's beautiful face slightly heated up.
"I came up to tell you that your big brother might not be able to come tonight because of something." After Gong Yuze finished speaking, he could clearly feel Ouyang Mengyue's slightly changed expression from the corner of his eyes.
"Is there something important that he can't come?" Ouyang Mengyue could not help but ask anxiously.
"He didn't say that the person who called me just now probably had something important to do." Gong Yuze said, and said to Ji Anning, "Are you all dressed up? We'll be leaving in a while. "
"Yes, we're all dressed up." Ji Anning nodded, and Gong Yuze reached out to gently caress a strand of curly hair beside her ear, "Very beautiful."
"Sis, brother-in-law, you guys go down first! I still need to get some more things, I... I'll be downstairs in a while. "Ouyang Mengyue said to them.
"Good!" Let's go down and chat. It's still early anyway, so there's no rush. "After Ji Anning finished speaking, he led Gong Yuze's hand down the stairs.
When the door closed, Ouyang Mengyue's face instantly turned pale white. She bit her lips, and her body started to tremble slightly, as if what she had worked hard for half a day had suddenly become meaningless.
He's not coming, he's not coming? Why not? The reason was obvious.
He didn't like the people of the Ouyang Family, and she just so happened to be a member of the Ouyang Family. Ouyang Mengyue grabbed onto the evening dress on his chest, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at his own attire tonight.
She raised her head slightly and took a deep breath. She picked up the phone on the table, and without thinking too much, she still found Ji Tianci's number and pulled it out.
She wanted to know, what was so important that he refused to come to this banquet?
Of course, Ji Tianci did not have anything important to do at the moment. He was watching the news in the hotel when the phone beside the sofa suddenly rang. The name on it made his heart tighten, and as he listened to the vibrating phone, he seemed to be considering whether he should answer it or not.
Just as the phone was about to ring, he still didn't reject it completely. He picked up the phone and placed it by his ear to answer, "Hello!"
"Why didn't you come to my family's banquet? You clearly agreed to it tomorrow. "On the other end, it was Ouyang Mengyue's questioning voice.
Ji Tianci sighed lightly, "I have something to do, I can't come." What exactly is so important that you have to do it at night? Do you just not want to come? You don't want to see my family, and you don't want to see me even more? "Ouyang Mengyue held onto his phone, unable to control the thoughts in his heart, and rushed towards the phone.
Duan Duan left to question him.
