As Jiujiu continued reading, she saw three women appear by Wang Long's side. They were all top-notch in terms of appearance and ability. However, due to various reasons, they were secretly in love with Wang Long and provided him with great help in his career.
When she saw this, Jiujiu sighed again. This f * cking plot seemed a little familiar. Wasn't it the plot of a certain city male lead?
Without three to five women, he would be embarrassed to call himself a city male lead.
However, because she hadn't seen Wang Long, Jiujiu couldn't confirm whether Wang Long had transmigrated or was reborn.
Coincidentally, Jiujiu soon had an opportunity.
Wang Long happened to be attending Luo City's Miss Mu's coming-of-age ceremony. Hence, Jiujiu dragged Tao Shi to go with her.
Tao Shi wasn't very interested in these gatherings. However, seeing that Jiujiu wanted to go, he thought about how Jiujiu taught him the Life and Death Talisman. He also wanted to learn the Life and Death Talisman from Jiujiu. Hence, Tao Shi suppressed his impatience and agreed to bring Jiujiu to the banquet.
She naturally had to wear a gown to attend the banquet.
Jiujiu had just been released from prison. Her hair was cut short when she went in. Even though it had grown longer, it was still a little short compared to ordinary women.
Jiujiu went to the hairdresser to get her hair trimmed. Then, she changed into the evening gown that the Tao family had prepared for her. She asked the makeup artist to give her a clear and transparent nude look. Then, she followed Tao Shi to attend Miss Mu's coming-of-age ceremony.
The Mu family was also an aristocratic family in Luo City. Although they weren't as powerful as the Tao family, they were still one of the top aristocratic families in Luo City. In the past, they had some underworld backgrounds. However, in recent years, they had gradually cleaned up and were exceptionally powerful.
Because of this, there were many boys in their teens who came to attend Miss Mu's coming-of-age ceremony. Most of them were dressed in neat suits and stood obediently beside their elders.
Miss Mu was already 18 years old. It was the age where she could have a boyfriend. Marrying Miss Mu was equivalent to having a marriage alliance with the Mu family. Anyone who didn't want such benefits would be a fool.
Tao Shi was from the Tao Family. Naturally, he was the last to appear.
While the men were looking forward to Miss Mu's arrival, the ladies of the prestigious families who heard that Tao Shi was coming back to attend Miss Mu's coming-of-age ceremony were also wearing their most beautiful evening gowns and waiting for Tao Shi's arrival.
Tao Shi was the youngest child in the Tao family, but he was also the most good-looking one. Although he was already 23 years old, his baby face looked as innocent as a high school student.
Tao Shi was like a high school hunk in the hearts of the girls.
But what surprised the girls the most was that Tao Shi didn't come alone. He brought a woman with him.
Although Li Juan was already twenty-eight years old, and because she had been working day and night, she looked exceptionally old. However, after Jiujiu used her inner strength to nourish her, her appearance began to reverse. Even though she was already twenty-eight years old, she looked like a seventeen or eighteen year old girl. Especially her eyes, which were clear and transparent like a pool of spring water. After dressing up, she simply looked like a high school beauty.
Jiujiu's appearance stunned the men who were waiting for Miss Mu. When Wang Long heard that Tao Shi would appear, he had been waiting for Tao Shi to appear to discuss his latest project with him. When he saw Jiujiu standing beside Tao Shi, his jaw almost dropped. Especially when he saw the small black mole at the corner of Jiujiu's eye and the sweet dimples when she smiled, Wang Long's mind instantly thought of the name that he had caused to be extremely miserable.
Li Juan.
Reason told Wang Long that Li Juan should be in prison now. Moreover, this woman looked to be at most in her twenties. How could she be Li Juan, the old woman who was out of shape and had a loose face with crow's feet?
However, Jiujiu and Li Juan were too similar.
Even the position of the small mole at the end of the eye was exactly the same. No matter how similar the two people were, it was impossible for even the small mole at the end of the eye to be exactly the same.
Just when Wang Long was feeling uneasy and doubting himself, Jiujiu was also looking for Wang Long.
Seeing Wang Long's cheeks changing because of her appearance, Jiujiu's mouth hooked up, revealing a very faint smile.
Jiujiu tiptoed slightly, leaned close to Tao Shi's ear and whispered that she was going to find Wang Long to settle accounts, and then stepped towards Wang Long.
After seeing Jiujiu whisper into Tao Shi's ear, the men who originally wanted to have ideas about Jiujiu immediately gave up on the idea.
Tao Shi of the Tao Family had a bad temperament and was very possessive. Even if he didn't say anything, the people who could put their lips close to his ear and whisper were obviously his people. If they dared to have ideas about Tao Shi's people, then they should be prepared to lose their heads.
The men who originally wanted to have ideas about Jiujiu immediately gave up on the idea and turned around to chat with the noble ladies.
Because of Jiujiu's unintentional action, after successfully stopping anyone from having ideas about her, Jiujiu stepped in front of Wang Long and casually took a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray. Taking a sip, she looked at Wang Long and said with a faint smile, "Long time no see. How have you been?"
If one were to say that Jiujiu's appearance was different from Li Juan's, then their voices were completely the same. That soft and gentle voice of hers was enough to melt one's bones.
When Wang Long and Li Juan were in love, he had told Li Juan more than once that Li Juan's voice was really beautiful.
However, when they were in love, Li Juan's voice was beautiful, but at this moment, Jiujiu's voice was like a bolt from the blue.
Wang Long looked at Jiujiu, a woman who he thought would spend the rest of her life in prison, and was shocked to the extreme. After coming back to his senses, Wang Long denied without thinking, "Sorry, I don't know you."
"You don't know me?" Jiujiu raised her eyebrows slightly, and the corners of her mouth hooked up into a cold smile. She said in a drawling tone, "If you lie through your teeth, you will be struck by lightning."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she didn't wait for Wang Long to answer and added, "But someone like you who framed your wife will definitely bring a lightning rod with him."
As soon as the words "framed his wife" came out, Wang Long knew that Jiujiu was Li Juan.
Wang Long thought that he would meet Jiujiu, but he didn't expect it to be at this time. When he thought of what he had done to Jiujiu, Wang Long was panicked. His usually glib tongue couldn't come out of his mouth, and he couldn't speak as if he had taken mute medicine.
Jiujiu looked at Wang Long who couldn't say a word, sighed regretfully, and said, "You and I have known each other for so many years. Do you think you can hide it from me?"
Jiujiu's words instantly reminded Wang Long that when Jiujiu first appeared here, he recognized that this 18-year-old Jiujiu was Li Juan.
Jiujiu had changed so much, and he could recognize that Jiujiu was Li Juan at a glance. There was no reason that Jiujiu couldn't recognize him, who hadn't changed much.
