The yandere CEO’s Black Moonlight is reborn again
Chapter 271 The annoying people gathered together
Chapter 271 The annoying people gathered together
Although the four major families have cooperation or marriage ties, there is still an essential competition for interests. The cooperation between the Jin family and Jiang Yixuan is not the only reason, but it is certainly one of the main reasons.
If the project becomes profitable, profits will be distributed according to shares. The profits from her half of the shares will be substantial, so the Jin family will definitely help Jiang Yixuan get his shares back. Right now, the Jin family will turn a blind eye if she tries to make money off him, but if she refuses to sell, they will eventually intervene, especially since the Ye family is in the wrong in this matter.
This is the best possible outcome.
But it's not enough.
Although she hasn't regained her memory yet, Ye Xi has thoroughly understood everything about her past with Jiang Yixuan, and every time she thinks about it, she is both shocked and angry.
Shocked that she would do so many stupid things, and furious that Jiang Yixuan dared to treat her like this!
The things Jiang Yixuan mentioned about accompanying rich second-generation heirs for drinks were the least of it. In order to please Jiang Yixuan, she almost stole company secrets for him. Calling her a simp would be too kind; she was practically under a spell.
Meanwhile, he enjoyed Ye Xi's devotion while refusing to acknowledge their relationship, allowing his admirers to ridicule and insult her, and even slapped Ye Xi to protect Lin Rou'er, forcing her to kneel down and apologize to a nanny's daughter in public.
Although she ultimately failed to get what she wanted because of her spoiled princess attitude, she still got angrier the more she thought about it, thinking she should have hit him a few more times.
Their relationship isn't something that can be peacefully maintained by simply not interfering with each other. This bastard must pay the price for what he's done! Besides, she still remembers the mission the system gave her: to rewrite the cannon fodder ending of the Ye family. The higher Jiang Yixuan climbs, the more uneasy she feels.
Therefore, she would definitely not stand idly by at the engagement banquet of the Jiang and Jin families three days later.
Three days later.
Jiang Yixuan mingled with a group of business tycoons, enjoying himself immensely.
"Congratulations! Mr. Jiang is so young, yet not only is he exceptionally capable, but he has also managed to marry Miss Jin. His future is undoubtedly bright!"
"Not at all, you flatter me. I will have to rely on your help in the future."
"Oh, Mr. Jiang is too modest."
The group clinked glasses, chatting and laughing. Just as Jiang Yixuan was about to down his drink, he caught a glimpse of a figure weaving through the crowd and paused.
After parting ways with the others, he stopped a waiter: "Why is she here? I didn't invite her."
Three days ago, he had a falling out with Ye Xi, and now he had no desire to see her at his most triumphant moment.
Jin Qian walked up from behind, trailing a long, elaborate gown that reached the ground: "I invited you."
The fact that she was with Jiang Yixuan must have been the biggest stimulus to Ye Xi, who was a simp. Although she had now climbed up to Fu Linchuan, her past with Jiang Yixuan was a fact she could not escape.
She didn't believe that Ye Xi could sever her feelings for Jiang Yixuan so cleanly, so today, she had to make Ye Xi witness this moment.
Jiang Yixuan couldn't disobey Jin Qian, so he could only reply, "Okay, but keep an eye on her to prevent her from causing trouble."
"Of course, I would do it without you reminding me."
Fu Linchuan wasn't here today, and she was waiting to see Ye Xi make a fool of herself. She had someone secretly watching her from the moment she entered.
On the other side, Ye Xi weaved through the crowd and found an inconspicuous spot to sit down. The Jin family truly lived up to their reputation as the family that valued appearances the most. It was just an engagement banquet, and the time was so short, yet they still managed to make such a grand affair. All the ingredients were of the highest quality, and the champagne was piled up into a pyramid. Even the descriptions of wine pools and meat forests in books couldn't compare to this.
As she savored the small cakes on the table, she looked around, secretly searching for Lin Rou'er.
Although her understanding of her past came from other people's investigations and accounts, she wasn't stupid. She could easily see that Lin Rou'er was not the weak and innocent girl that everyone thought she was. On the contrary, she was very cunning and had a strong possessive desire for Jiang Yixuan.
The last time Ye Xi and Jiang Yixuan got engaged, she risked her own life to frame her and stop the engagement banquet.
This time, seeing Jiang Yixuan and Jin Qian holding hands, smiling and inseparable, walking towards the hall of marriage amidst everyone's blessings and applause, could Lin Rou'er sit still?
Not long after, she saw Lin Rou'er.
Lin Rou'er was still wearing a white dress, holding a glass of juice in both hands, walking beside He Jinming, looking gentle and harmless. However, Ye Xi, who had been watching her closely, easily caught her gaze looking towards the main stage area.
Jiang Yixuan offered a toast near the main stage.
Lin Rou'er is now He Jinming's girlfriend in name only, and he's brought her to almost every banquet and private gathering of the rich kids. Even if the He family eventually refuses to let her into the family because of her background, at least for now, He Jinming has given her a formal status, and others won't look down on her.
Although Ye Xi didn't attend those gatherings, she still gathered all the necessary information. He Jinming was serious about Lin Rou'er, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely marry her. As for their backgrounds, Lin Rou'er came from the Jiang family, and Jiang Yixuan was an only son. Once he publicly announced that he recognized Lin Rou'er as his sister, she would no longer be the nanny's daughter, but the Jiang family's heiress.
The Jiang family is about to form a marriage alliance with the Jin family, and with He Jinming's support, the Jiang family's status will surely rise higher and higher. One day, he will make the He family acknowledge Lin Rou'er.
Although Jiang Yixuan didn't give him shares in the Jiang family, He Jinming took over the two core projects with enormous value from start to finish. It's fair to say that without him, Jiang Yixuan wouldn't have been able to establish the projects so smoothly. This was reliance, but also trust, and He Jinming never betrayed that trust, taking excellent care of both the Jiang family and Lin Rou'er.
The premise is that he will never know the actual relationship between Lin Rou'er and Jiang Yixuan.
Jiang Yixuan, Lin Rou'er, He Jinming, Jin Qian.
It's such a coincidence that all the people Ye Xi hates have come together.
She sat in a secluded spot, and apart from those who were specifically following her, almost no one noticed her. Moreover, Jiang Yixuan and Jin Qian had long forgotten about her after giving their instructions.
She quietly observed the group, pondering where to begin.
After finishing with the guests in front of him, He Jinming noticed Lin Rou'er's gaze, whispered something to her, and Lin Rou'er chuckled softly. Then she followed him to the edge of the stage, seemingly preparing to find Jiang Yixuan.
Just then, a waiter walked past them, and his hand holding the tray was accidentally bumped by someone. He immediately lost his balance, and the wine on the tray was about to spill onto Lin Rou'er.
He Jinming swiftly scooped her up, spun her around halfway off the ground, and then put her down on his other side.
"Are you alright? What did you do?!"
Amidst the waiter's repeated apologies, Lin Rou'er shook her head, her face pale.
But at that moment, Ye Xi clearly saw that when the wine glass was splashed, Lin Rou'er's first reaction was not to dodge, but to protect her lower abdomen with both hands.
