Chapter 105 - Chapter 105: Attending a Banquet

After waiting at the door for a while, I saw Mu Dongyang's car coming out of the parking lot. Bo He was chirping behind the car and waving repeatedly when he saw her.

The first thing Bohe said when he saw her was to ask about going to Shijiu's house for a banquet. Xiaoji didn't say anything, just smiled, which made Bohe scream with joy.

Xiao Ji, you don't even know how wealthy the Shi Jiu family really is! His grandfather never appears in public easily, but once he does, he can't even hire a big shot to move to Jinshan. Although our family has always had business dealings with his family, I haven't seen him in person many times since I've grown up

Hehe, even if you're rich, it's someone else's family. Why are you so excited? "Xiao Ji liked her straightforward nature and deliberately attacked her when she spoke." What? Do you think your family doesn't have enough money? Besides, sometimes having more money isn't the happiest, and Shi Jiu is the best example

Shi Jiu's father has always been fawning over the Bohe family, and his flattery is not likable at all. Xiao Ji spoke frankly, which immediately made her head droop.

Anyway, they're just very excited, "Bohe pouted and glanced at Mu Dongyang in the driver's seat." If you don't believe me, ask Dongyang. Their two families have the deepest friendship. Look how many times he has only met the old man

Mu Dongyang's face was always hidden in the shadow of the light, and Xiaoji was afraid to look at him, but when Bohe mentioned him, she had to turn around.

Didn't your family call and ask you to go back quickly? "Xiao Ji smiled and casually said, feeling that Mu Dongyang was in a bad mood now, as if she was about to dig a hole.

Sure enough, Mu Dongyang didn't answer her, but asked seriously, "Did you really agree to him

Xiaoji nodded, but before she could answer, Bohe cheered again, "It's okay to go take a look, anyway it's the weekend, we have plenty of time

Mu Dongyang's face didn't look good. While others were laughing, he was lost in thought. When Jin Xiaoji got into the car and was about to leave, he looked ahead and murmured to himself.

If only we could simply thank you, I'm afraid it's because

Bohe didn't hear the rest of the words, while Jin Xiaoji pretended not to hear. She looked out the window with a smile on her face, actually lost in thought.

It was already late when I got home, and my cousin hadn't slept yet. When Xiaoji mentioned going to Shijiu's house for a banquet this weekend, he didn't say anything, just smiled inexplicably. Xiaoji thought he would stop her from going, but to her surprise, he cooperated so well that she couldn't say anything she wanted to say several times.

Never mind, this is her own family matter, asking others won't help.

The following week was calm and peaceful, as she lost one person and her life returned to its previous trajectory. The only thing that made her uneasy was Fei Zhu. It had been a week since that day, but she had not returned, which made people worry that her sleepwalking had worsened.

It soon came to Friday. When school was over in the afternoon, several sisters in the dormitory gathered together for a rare time. Maybe tomorrow, they would attend a party of the Shi family. Bohe was very excited, and Cui Zizhi was also infected. Shi Jiu was inseparable from everything.

Shi Jiu's injury will heal on Thursday, but he is quite pitiful. Just as he was about to go back to school, his father took him back. He was already at odds with his father, and when he left, his father shouted to go back and save face. It was really embarrassing. You didn't see it, and his whole face turned green at that time

Cui Zizhi vividly talked about Shi Jiu's recent situation, and when talking about his father, she also had a look of contempt on her face. Xiao Ji sneered in her heart, as if the insult from Shi Jiu's father was still from yesterday. Even now, thinking about it, the taste is unforgettable.

It seems that everyone is waiting for tomorrow's banquet now. How many people are genuinely interested in this matter, how many people just want to watch the excitement, and how many things are targeted at themselves? Now, when I think about it, I can't even count them.

Why don't we go together tomorrow so we can take care of each other? "Bohe continued to speak out loud, his mood gradually becoming tense from excitement." Anyway, we have Mu Dongyang driving, and he is quite familiar with that family. With him coming forward, we won't lose face if we do anything

I have no problem, "Cui Zizhi quickly agreed.

I'm fine too, you don't have to be too nervous, "Xiaoji thought, feeling a bit amused. The first time she saw Bohe so nervous was because of the family's affairs. However, if she knew something unimaginable would happen tomorrow, she probably wouldn't forget it for the rest of her life.

The matter was settled, and the three of them agreed to have Mu Dongyang drive to pick them up the next evening.

As she was leaving, Xiaoji glanced at the school again. Although she had only experienced uninterrupted learning in this school, she had made a group of caring friends, mixed with joy and sorrow. The only thing she couldn't know was how much time she was still staying here.

The conflicting emotions persisted until she returned home. As she pushed open the door, Jin Xiaoji suddenly had a strange feeling that the room was quiet and devoid of any warmth. There seemed to be no one else in the house except herself.

Despite shouting a few times, no one agreed. As soon as she thought about her cousin's unusual behavior these days, Jin Xiaoji vaguely thought of something and quickly ran upstairs.

The second floor room was indeed empty, with a piece of white paper placed on the head of the bed. The words on it were written with a black brush, flying and dancing like dragons and phoenixes, so abstract and sloppy that they were almost unrecognizable.

Jin Xiaoji looked at the blank paper for a full three minutes before vaguely guessing what her cousin had written. He seemed to be testing his patience, and after a long passage of nonsense, he bid him farewell with a few words.

He walked calmly, just like the night he suddenly appeared. In the letter, he was like a simple greeting to someone, leaving without any sadness.

At the end of the letter, there was a small line of text. Xiao Ji squinted her eyes and looked at it for a while, then let out a heavy sigh before putting it back under the pillow.

Silver Elder and Dragon God Lord are coming soon, don't worry

Anything can happen so coincidentally. She just thought that without her mother, it wouldn't be lively anymore, but she didn't expect to come back too.

The night without her cousin was particularly peaceful, and the next day, Jin Xiaoji spent the whole day trying to dress herself up. She put on new clothes and applied light makeup, but in the end, her face remained ordinary and unremarkable, with only her beautiful golden eyes shining brightly without the cover of her eyes.

Never mind, it's not a blind date, it's just a grand banquet. She smiled in the mirror and pushed open the door.

Outside the door, Mu Dongyang had been waiting for her for a long time. As soon as he saw her appear, his beautiful eyes lit up instantly.

You look very nice today

Thank you. "Looking at him, Xiaoji's eyebrows curved." Let's go quickly. It's too late for Bohe and the others to wait

A small banquet can make so many people nervous like this, it really gives the Shi family a lot of face. Sitting in the car, Xiaoji was still lost in thought. When she saw that person, she wondered what kind of expression she should have, whether she should maintain an elegant smile, pretend not to recognize him, or

Before the final decision could be made, Cui Zizhi and Bohe had already arrived. Today, both of them were dressed very beautifully, just like themselves, with bright light makeup. But none of them received praise from Mu Dongyang, they just praised each other and everyone happily set off on the road.

The Shi family is an unimaginable industry, and their residence is not located in the city center, but on a scenic mountain not far from the city center. The entire mountain has been bought and layers of luxury houses have been built. From a distance, it looks like a lion dominating the world, with a strong financial power.

As Jin Xiaoji passed by the mountain, she glanced up and felt that these houses were like castles in the air. Although they were beautiful, their beauty was unreal, like the people living in this house. Perhaps they all carried the aura of wealth and prosperity, but how many of them were truly happy? Perhaps their fate would be similar to that of Shi Jiu's father.

Mint and Cui Zizhi's mouths had never heard of it before. Although they had seen a lot of the world, they were also shocked by the strong scale of the Shi family. On the other hand, Jin Xiaoji remained surprisingly calm, as if she had been scared out of her wits.

Xiao Ji, you must be surprised. I told you their family is very wealthy! "Bohe kept on thinking, winking at the vermilion gate in front of him. There was a young man waiting by the door, with servants on both sides, applying for respect. It was Assistant Liang who had invited them that day.

They were indeed prepared long ago. Looking at those well-trained servants, each of them walked out as handsome men and beautiful women, but they humbly surrendered and willingly became slaves here. This shows that the strength of the Shi family is definitely extraordinary.

Xiao Ji smiled noncommittally and said to Assistant Liang Nunu, who was smiling brightly like spring, "What they want is this kind of effect. Let us ordinary people shake our eyes first, and when we are so envious, give us some sweetness to taste. If you don't believe it, just wait and see. There will be more surprises inside later

Xiaoji, why do you speak so strangely? "Bohe finally recognized the irony in her words and stared at Xiaoji repeatedly, but couldn't figure out the reason.

Don't overthink it, they have already arrived, "Mu Dongyang cleared his throat from behind, and several people quickly stood up and looked forward.

Assistant Liang brought several servants over, each holding a bright lily in their hand. After approaching without saying a word, he directly thrust into the heads of the three girls.

This is the master's preference, please forgive me, "Assistant Liang explained on the side, while inserting another lily into Mu Dongyang's chest." That's it. The other guests are already on Siyue Mountain. I hope you have a great time, sir and madam

Rubbing a flower on her head, she felt like her head had grown bigger. Bo He and a few others looked at each other, feeling awkward. Only Xiao Ji remained calm, while the flower swayed a few times on her head and strode inside.
