He was going to attend Mrs. Ji's birthday in a few days, and Father Shen also called for the first time, saying that there was something wrong with the company during this period, and he couldn't leave her and would not come back. He told Shen Jiao to send the gift to the old lady, and he had already prepared it.
Shen Jiao obediently agreed.
After all, the Shen family is one of the most wealthy families in the area, and many people will come to celebrate the old man's birthday. The Shan family, Chen family, Song family, etc., who have always been friends with each other, and the Su family who are new here will all come.
This is no longer a simple birthday banquet, but more like a business social event.
As the only daughter of the Shen family, Shen Jiao must attend. Ji Yanqing is also very popular with the old lady and must go.
After Shen Jiao got up and went downstairs, she saw a bunch of people standing in the living room. They were the original owner's styling team.
A few days before the original owner attends important events, they will come to Shen's house to carefully match the original owner. This time is no exception.
Shen Jiao followed them, and those people kept asking her what she thought while making gestures on her body.
They brought a lot of clothes and jewelry, all of which were high-end custom-made, and kept taking them out one by one to show to Shen Jiao.
Shen Jiao was dazzled.
Shen Jiao randomly chose a light pink long skirt, tried it on, and thought it looked good, so she settled on it.
Others began to choose jewelry and design makeup for her.
After finally finishing it, Shen Jiao was almost exhausted.
Shen Jiao suddenly thought of Ji Yanqing. He had to dress formally for such an occasion. Ji Yanqing's suits were from two years ago, and he grew up quickly, so the clothes no longer fit him.
And more importantly, the heroine Su Wan will also participate.
As cannon fodder, Shen Jiao is very self-conscious. Now that the male and female protagonists have gotten to know each other, as long as she pushes the flames a few more times, when the male and female protagonists are with Meimei, not only will they not kill her, but they may even be grateful to her.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiao couldn't help laughing out loud.
While the styling team members hadn't left yet, Shen Jiao quickly ran to Ji Yanqing's room and knocked on the door.
As soon as Ji Yanqing opened the door, Shen Jiao grabbed him and went to her room.
"what are you doing?"
Shen Jiao didn't respond to him, but pulled him to the stylist and said, "Give him some measurements to make a custom suit."
Before Ji Yanqing could react, a group of people surrounded him and made gestures all over him. He rarely showed some confusion befitting his age.
This is right, after all, he is still a little kid, why should he keep a straight face every day and pretend to be mature?
After they were done, the stylist told Shen Jiao that the suit would be sent over later.
Shen Jiao nodded, and then they left neatly.
Ji Yanqing looked at her, as if he had something to say.
Shen Jiao thought he was going to refuse, so she quickly said: "I will attend grandma's birthday in a few days. All the wealthy businessmen and political celebrities will come there. You can't lose the Shen family's face."
Shen Jiao was already ready for Ji Yanqing to turn around and leave.
But unexpectedly, Ji Yanqing had no reaction. I don't know if it was Shen Jiao's illusion, but Ji Yanqing didn't look at her with that disgusting look this time. He stared at her silently with deep eyes, as if he had seen through her.
…
Mrs. Shen's birthday will soon arrive.
Ji Yanqing has finished cleaning up and is waiting for Shen Jiao downstairs. As brother and sister, they are tightly tied together and must attend together.
High heels made a crisp sound when they hit the steps. Ji Yanqing heard the sound and looked up, only to see——
Shen Jiao wore a light pink dress, which was slightly tightened at the waist, outlining her unbearable waist. Her long hair was tied up high, revealing her long, white and swan-like neck and delicate collarbones. There was light makeup on her face, and her facial features were so delicate that people couldn't take their eyes away.
Ji Yanqing's breath was stagnant, and his heart beat violently for a moment.
Shen Jiao was also looking at Ji Yanqing.
Thin lips, slim eyes, height and long legs, and a well-tailored black suit make him look even more noble.
As expected of the male protagonist, this temperament is all natural, Shen Jiao sighed silently in her heart.
Shen Jiao walked to Ji Yanqing's side, greeted him and said, "Let's go."
Ji Yanqing nodded lightly and moved his eyes to the side uncomfortably.
Shen Jiao had long been accustomed to his indifference and didn't care. After saying that, she passed by Ji Yanqing.
Ji Yanqing looked at her back, his eyes falling on the white back of her neck, and his throat felt slightly thirsty.
…
Mrs. Shen lived far away from them, and when they arrived, there were already many luxury cars parked outside.
Mrs. Shen had been waiting for them at the door for a long time. When she saw them coming, she immediately came out to greet them. She was still very strong and did not look like an old man in her sixties at all. "My good granddaughter, my good grandson... finally..." Here you go, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Mrs. Shen grabbed Shen Jiao's hand and held it tightly. The other hand grabbed Ji Yanqing again. Mrs. Shen put their two hands together and held them tightly.
Mrs. Shen looked at them with loving eyes and a look of relief.
Ji Yanqing showed a sincere smile and congratulated the old lady on her birthday.
Shen Jiao also followed him and said, "Grandma, happy birthday. This is a gift for you."
Shen Jiao handed over a box containing a precious emerald necklace. The people around Mrs. Shen quickly took it.
"Come here, don't bring any gifts. Your coming is my best gift!"
Mrs. Shen was obviously very happy, and Shen Jiao also laughed.
"It's windy outside. Come in quickly. I'll wait for you."
"good."
The banquet hall was full of people with fragrant clothes and beautiful hair. People changed cups and cups, chatting and laughing.
After Shen Jiao and Ji Yanqing entered, the originally noisy hall was quiet for a moment.
After a while, a heated discussion broke out.
"Is this Shen Jiao? Why do you feel more beautiful than before?"
"Who is that next to you? I haven't seen him before. He's so handsome. He can't be her boyfriend."
"What kind of boyfriend? That's her brother, Ji Yanqing. He's quite handsome, but he's adopted..."
"What's wrong with the adopted one? He's so handsome! It's not like I have to marry him."
"Hey, you still have a lot to think about. You've even thought about talking about marriage."
"What are you talking about! I didn't..."
All kinds of eyes looked at them. There are those who are curious and surprised, and there are also those who are malicious and contemptuous.
Shen Jiao didn't like being looked at by them like objects, so she couldn't help but frown slightly.
At this moment, Ji Yanqing suddenly took a step forward, whether intentionally or not, blocking the sight of those in front of her. He took the wine glass handed by the waiter and walked towards the crowd.
He immediately became the focus of the crowd, and curious people rushed up to chat with him.
Whether it was hypocritical greetings or deliberate embarrassment, Ji Yanqing dealt with them one by one and always talked and laughed freely.
Shen Jiao breathed a sigh of relief. Ji Yanqing attracted most of their attention, so she took the opportunity to avoid the crowd and walked to the corner.
It was great that no one bothered her.
The food in the banquet hall was very rich, with many snacks, cakes, etc. Shen Jiao had nothing to do when she was left alone, so she simply started eating.
The desserts here are all made by senior pastry chefs. The cakes are as light as air and the cream is creamy and not sweet. Shen Jiao ate several of them in a row.
But Shen Jiao didn't just focus on eating. She looked at Ji Yanqing through the crowd and saw him chatting passionately with Su Wan.
As her name suggests, Su Wan is graceful and graceful. Standing next to Ji Yanqing and smiling, she looks like they are a perfect match.
now it's right!
As long as the male and female protagonists get together smoothly, there is no need to sacrifice her cannon fodder!
