The doubt was in his mind, but now that Wen Zhixia had chased him into the hall, it would be difficult for him to get close because he was too dazzling!
The banquet's host had not shown up for a long time, which was very rude during the past dinner parties. However, the people present did not seem surprised. Their gazes were focused on a man.
He had a three-dimensional face, deep black eyes, thin lips, a face that had been kissed by an angel, a perfect and impeccable face, an innate nobility, and the calmness of a man who has long held high office.
No matter how big a person was, it was difficult to get close to him. Zhan Yanjia's smile became even more proud of herself.
"Yi, can we go over there?"
Zhan Yanjia spoke coquettishly, a trace of desire appearing in her eyes. There were friends and famous women there whom she had known for a long time. It was obvious that they were from a powerful family. She couldn't wait to show off.
She didn't notice the trace of displeasure that flashed across Yi Yeyu's face. He turned his head slightly to the side and swept a glance at Zhan Yanjia with his black eyes.
"If you don't want to go, then don't. I can stay here with you."
That glance caused Zhan Yanjia's heart to turn cold and she regretted what she had said just now. She slowly lowered her head. To others, it looked like a woman's shyness. Only she herself knew that it was due to the ease with which she could see through everything.
"No need. You can go if you want to."
Zhan Yanjia's eyes narrowed as she took his arm away from her elbow, picked up the bottle of champagne on the waiter's tray and left, ignoring the crying Zhan Yanjia behind her.
"Yi, I will obediently go there and wait for you!"
Seemingly wanting to hide her easy movements, Zhan Yanjia responded very quickly by saying something, causing everyone's gazes to shift away. With a confident smile hanging on her lips, she walked towards that direction.
Although she felt bitter in her heart, the bitterness slowly disappeared as the crowd closed in on her.
"Are you going to eat it?"
Nan Wenjing retracted his eyes from the distance as he felt that something was going to happen. However, when his eyes saw Wen Zhixia's plate, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"Well, is there a problem?"
Wen Zhixia's clip hadn't stopped. She knew clearly in her heart that this was a human instinct. It was as if she was using food to comfort her uneasy heart. A trace of panic flashed through her lowered eyes.
"It's nothing!"
He shook his head slightly and didn't tell Wen Zhixia that all the ladies didn't eat much at this kind of occasion. It was Wen Zhixia's way of eating that made him feel more comfortable.
"Isn't it the coming of age ceremony? Why hasn't the owner appeared, and why doesn't everyone seem to be in a hurry? "
Wen Zhixia put down the clip and pretended to ask carelessly. However, her breathing became ragged for a moment. She carefully picked up the small cake with her fork and asked curiously before she ate it.
"Maybe something happened?"
Nan Wenjing did not care about this issue at all. His goal was not to attend the banquet, but rather to meet the people he was with.
An ancient text that he had learned years ago was very suitable for the current situation. "The intention of drunkenness was not to drink wine" was very appropriate. His eyes gently stared at Wen Zhixia, who was eating in small mouthfuls.
The food soothed her emotions. Wen Zhixia deliberately avoided looking at the easy figure. She knew that there was always a gaze behind her that couldn't be ignored, but she still tried very hard to ignore it.
"Hello everyone. Today is our child's coming of age ceremony. Thank you all for taking the time from your busy schedule to attend. This old man thanks everyone for your appreciation!"
When Wen Zhixia raised her head, she could only see a kind old man greeting everyone in the banquet hall. Next to him was a young man in a suit, whose back was slapped by the old man before she looked up. It was actually him!
The exquisite crystal lantern above his head illuminated the person beneath the lamp. The white suit that was worn on the boy's body made him look quite unruly. Suddenly meeting Wen Zhixia's eyes, his pupils constricted as if he was ashamed.
She couldn't help but think back to the scene just now when she was with Easy. She looked all around, and when her eyes met with a pair of black eyes, the corners of Easy's lips curled up slightly as she lightly raised her cup in toast to Wen Zhixia.
This made Wen Zhixia's heart tighten. Her eyes were filled with disbelief as she lightly tugged on Nan Wenjing's sleeve.
"You knew Lv Wei's identity?"
Facing Wen Zhixia's gaze, Nan Wenjing didn't know how to reply. He didn't want to tell Wen Zhixia that the family was also illegitimate children that had recently found themselves abroad. This wasn't a secret among the upper class.
"I didn't tell you this because I didn't want you to misunderstand!"
Wen Zhixia's eyes lit up. It wasn't that she misunderstood Nan Wenjing, it was just because Lee Weixi was against the injustice. This junior of hers was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. No wonder he purposely displayed the key just now.
However, she was not sure how that item would fall into her hands. The question in her heart had yet to be answered.
"I can't be your partner anymore for today's banquet!"
After she finished speaking, Wen Zhixia didn't stay as long as Nan Wenjing. She walked straight outside. She walked very straightforwardly and didn't even have time to urge Nan Wenjing to stay.
"Zhixia …"
Actually, it wasn't only Nan Wenjing, even the eyes of Lv Wei, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, dimmed. He knew that he had offended Wen Zhixia this time, but he didn't regret it.
When the man called Father came to him, he did not hesitate to abandon his mother and stepfather. He only needed to think of the arm behind his senior and this father could give him even more.
"Nephew, after you graduate, you can come to uncle's company!"
Therefore, Lv Wei did not chase after him. Instead, he followed his father and learned about social interaction. He suppressed the desire in his heart. A trace of desire flashed through his clear eyes. It was a desire for success.
It was as if the world was hidden in the darkness of the night, making people unable to see clearly.
"Did you know earlier that you were going to use Weixi's key ring to lure me into taking the bait?"
Wen Zhixia didn't turn around, but her soft voice contained a trace of anger, as if she was dissatisfied with the actions of the people behind her.
The gentle breeze brought with it a faint scent, so when it was easy to approach, a familiar feeling lingered at the tip of her nose, letting her know who the person was without turning back due to anger.
"So what if you are? You were the stupid one, that's why you were tricked."
Wen Zhixia's cold words were merciless and tore off all of her disguise. She bit her lip as flames appeared in her eyes. She didn't want to admit her mistake, but reality still gave her a slap on the face.
This banquet made her feel extremely uncomfortable, but her eyes flashed with a strong light.
