While everyone was staring at Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen suddenly walked toward Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was standing in the middle of the hall, which was a very conspicuous place, and she was being discussed by everyone. With someone who was also in the limelight walking toward her at this moment, everyone couldnt help but look at Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu wouldnt have cared if people were just talking about her and might have even chatted with them. However, Jiang Chens approach made her feel uneasy and she even had the urge to avoid him.

When he saw the panic in Yuan Shus eyes, a complacent smile appeared on Jiang Chens face and he kept walking toward Yuan Shu. Despite how many years had pa.s.sed, he was still forcing her to a dead end.

Just as Jiang Chen was getting closer and closer, someone suddenly stopped him.

Song s.h.i.+ was wearing a bright yellow tube top short skirt and her short hair was tucked behind her ear, making her look gorgeous yet capable.

She held Jiang Chens arm as she said with a smile, Brother Jiang Chen, youre finally here. Ive been waiting for you for a long time.

It turned out that Song s.h.i.+ had been watching every move in the private room upstairs and she was the one who secretly instructed the others to make things difficult for Yuan Shu.

The moment she saw Yuan Shu, she was furious. She didnt understand why the horse didnt kill Yuan Shu on the set that day!

She had deliberately run to the set and declared her sovereignty in front of so many people. She had acted intimate with Jiang Chen and had even secretly hidden a round-headed nail in the saddle, driving the horse crazy. She had wanted to hurt Yuan Shu, but unexpectedly, Yuan Shu escaped unscathed. Song s.h.i.+ had smashed Papa Songs new antique vase in a fit of anger after hearing the news.

When Song Chuan returned home and saw the debris all over the ground, he was furious, but after knowing that it was Song s.h.i.+ who had done it, he only punished a few servants and didnt scold Song s.h.i.+. This emboldened Song s.h.i.+.

Today, Song s.h.i.+ and her grandfather, Song Hong, came to the banquet. Their grandeur completely suppressed that of Song Chuan and her mother, Li Lin.

Song s.h.i.+ gnashed her teeth in anger when she saw that so many people failed to make things difficult for Yuan Shu, but when she turned around and saw Jiang Chen, her focus s.h.i.+fted to Jiang Chen.

She found that Jiang Chen was becoming more and more aloof and arrogant. He was completely different from the previous Jiang Chen, but this made her even more infatuated with him. Now, every time Jiang Chen appeared, Song s.h.i.+ felt even more attracted to him.

Song s.h.i.+ asked the makeup artist to touch up her makeup again, then she hurried to find Jiang Chen.

When she found Jiang Chen was walking toward Yuan Shu, she became even more anxious, but she ran over and stopped Jiang Chen in time.

Song s.h.i.+ stretched out her hand in front of Jiang Chen and said, Todays banquet is to celebrate my return to the country. Do you have any gifts for me? Jiang Chen didnt want to embarra.s.s Song s.h.i.+ in public. After all, he would have to work with the Song family in the future, and Song s.h.i.+ was the most precious person to the Song familys old master. If Song s.h.i.+ was unhappy, it would be equivalent to angering the Song familys old master.

Therefore, Jiang Chen stopped and showed a polite yet distant smile. Your gift is ready. Ill ask Zheng Tian to send it to your house. You can take a look at it when you get back.

His smile made many single young ladies gasp. They couldnt help but swoon over how handsome this man was. He was simply a homme fatale!

Hearing this, Song s.h.i.+ smiled sweetly and deliberately leaned closer to Jiang Chen as she said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, Youre so annoying. Why are you being so mysterious when youre just giving me a gift? 1 want to see it now.

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes. He didnt answer Song s.h.i.+s question. Just as he was about to walk forward, he found that Yuan Shu was no longer there.

That made sense. Song s.h.i.+ was the protagonist of the banquet today. Since the protagonist had already appeared, she naturally had to give up the limelight. Yuan Shu took advantage of their flirting to leave the crowds sight and hide elsewhere.

As for the others, they took the initiative to come up and exchange pleasantries. The hall became lively again.

Someone leaned closer and said, Congratulations on returning to the country, Miss Song. You became even more beautiful after this trip. Your clothes are also fas.h.i.+onable and gorgeous. Youre not someone we can compare to.

When the others heard her belittling them and praising Song s.h.i.+, they secretly glared at the person who spoke and decided to ostracize her..
