"How unlucky! Why did I end up encountering such a heartless person in this banquet! "
When Elder Zhang heard about Ji Jingchen and the crazy Wen Tiantian at the seaside, he was also deeply saddened. In fact, his opinion of Ji Jingchen had changed.
He felt that Wen Tiantian's greatest happiness was to be able to find someone who deeply loved him.
But after just a few days, he actually gave up on searching! He had even become a completely different person!
You're still laughing?
He stared at Ji Jingchen's smiling face from a distance, wishing that he could directly expose two holes on his face.
"Ha!" Laugh! What's so funny! The little girl's whereabouts are unknown, but you still have the mood to stay and attend this banquet? "
"He's still laughing so happily!" I was wrong about you! If I knew earlier, even if the little girl didn't agree, I would have brought her away. "
Elder Peng, who was standing beside him, did not look too good either.
It wasn't easy for him to find a disciple he liked, but he didn't think that this disciple's life would be so bitter.
He reached out his hand to pat Elder Zhang's shoulder.
"Forget it, don't say anymore. Don't tell me that you didn't know Ji Jingchen's character in the past?"
Elder Zhang hesitated for a moment before sighing.
"I just don't deserve it for Tiantian's sake! To like such a man! "
He glared fiercely at Ji Jingchen.
"He's not even as good as my son. Although he's a bit stupid, but at least he's not as heartless as Ji Jingchen!"
He snorted coldly.
But it was too late to say anything now. Wen Tiantian had disappeared, and it was almost certain that she was dead.
Just as they were talking, they didn't expect Ji Jingchen to walk towards them.
Ji Jingchen walked in front of them and nodded slightly.
"Elder Zhang." "Good evening, Elder Peng."
"Good, good, good! What's so good about that!? I don't want to see you! " Elder Zhang turned his head and cursed.
He had always had something to say, and even if he was in a banquet with many people standing around, he would not hesitate to express his displeasure.
The moment the voice sounded, everyone turned around and looked over.
Noticing that Elder Zhang and Ji Jingchen's mood were not right, they did not dare to speak and just watched from afar.
Old Zhang continued to scold, "I'm really angry! How could a little girl fall on such a person like you! "
Ji Jingchen did not get angry at Elder Zhang's criticism. Instead, he said lightly: "It's my fault."
"You still have the nerve to say that? Not you, are you still doing this for someone else? I didn't expect you to forget about her after just a few days. "
Ji Jingchen looked at him with a faint smile.
"I will never forget her. She is the wife of my life."
Elder Zhang was shocked by the deep affection in his voice as he turned around to look at him.
Ji Jingchen had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth. The gentleness in his eyes couldn't be faked no matter how hard he tried.
He gaped for a moment, then turned his head and snorted coldly.
"Anyone can do it, but it's different! If you really like that little girl so much and you really love her so much, why did you withdraw the people who were searching for you? "Why don't you continue searching?"
"It's only been a few days since she left, but you're still able to come to the banquet with a smile on your face. I really don't know what you're thinking!"
Almost everyone present could not help but ask Elder Zhang these questions.
They all pricked up their ears, waiting for Ji Jingchen's reply.
However, Ji Jingchen didn't say anything.
He smiled and drank the champagne.
"I'm very happy to see you all worried for Tiantian."
Elder Zhang and Elder Peng looked at him in confusion.
"Ji Jingchen, are you alright?"
Ji Jingchen shook his head and left.
Elder Zhang looked at his back and felt that something was wrong with Ji Jingchen.
"Is this person crazy?"
At this moment, someone had already walked down the stairs to the second floor.
Mrs Ruan, who was wearing a black gauze dress, slowly walked down from the stage. Everyone who saw her immediately quieted down and turned to look at her.
Mrs Ruan's gaze swept across everyone and finally stopped on Ji Jingchen. The corner of her mouth slowly raised into an almost imperceptible curve.
Then she came down.
"Welcome to the Ruan Mansion once again."
Everyone raised their heads to look at Mrs Ruan, who was standing on the stairs. No one knew what kind of shocking news she had announced today.
Ji Jingchen frowned. The way he looked at Mrs Ruan earlier made him feel slightly uneasy.
At this moment, Mrs Ruan raised her voice again.
"For today's party, I want to introduce a person to everyone."
She paused, a faint smile on her face.
"That's my daughter, Wen Tiantian."
Upon hearing this name, everyone was stunned.
Wen Tiantian, isn't that the person who had a big fight with Ji Jingchen?
Moreover, he had already fallen into the sea, so why would he appear here?
Was it just the same name?
Was there such a coincidence in the world?
More importantly, when did Mrs Ruan have a child?
How had they never heard of it?
With that said, everyone in the hall could not help but start whispering to each other.
Ji Jingchen frowned. He never thought that Mrs Ruan would announce Wen Tiantian so quickly and that she would become his daughter.
While she was thinking, Mrs Ruan turned around and stretched out her hand towards the other side.
At the corner of the stairs, a person walked out.
She wore a light blue skirting dress with a bit of makeup. Her soft, curly hair fell across her shoulders, accentuating her elegant, refined face.
The moment she appeared at the scene, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
This... Isn't this Ji Jingchen's wife?
Wen Tiantian, who had already fallen into the sea and was rumored to be dead, was now dead. How could she suddenly appear here again?
Elder Zhang and Elder Peng were very familiar with Wen Tiantian. When they saw the people walking down the stairs, both of them widened their eyes at the same time and looked at them carefully.
He was afraid that he might make a mistake.
Ji Jingchen's expression was extremely ugly.
Mrs Ruan actually pushed Wen Tiantian out.
So what if it was like that? Why did he have to do all this to cover up everyone's eyes? Why did he have to let Wen Tiantian fake her death?
Mrs Ruan took in the shock on everyone's face.
"This is my adopted daughter, Wen Tiantian."
Everyone had a complicated expression on their faces.
No matter how he looked at it, the person in front of him was Wen Tiantian.
Elder Zhang pulled Elder Peng, who was beside him.
"Old Peng, can you help me see if that person is a girl?" "I'm a bit dazzled."
Elder Peng didn't say anything, but looked at the person on the stairs.
In the hall, very quickly, there were people who were unable to restrain the curiosity in their hearts.
"Mrs Ruan, may I ask if this is Miss Wen, the wife of Ji Jingchen who fell into the sea a while ago?"
Mrs Ruan's expression did not change, nor did her heart skip a beat.
"No."
