The atmosphere of the celebratory feast was quite good. Everyone was friendly and sincerely congratulating each other. However, this was only for a small portion of the people. A small portion of them had stiff expressions and a disappointed expression on their faces.
This small group of people supported different parties. Moreover, they did not wish for Ji Xiaohan's power and wealth to grow again. At this moment, seeing the celebratory feast being so victorious, they could not be happy no matter what.
They could only smile hypocritically and say insignificant words. Their eyes were monitoring Ji Xiaohan's every move, hoping to find a gap or weakness that was enough to defeat him.
When they saw the charming Tang Youyou beside Ji Xiaohan, everyone's eyes were filled with the same thought.
If there wasn't this banquet, they would have thought that Tang Youyou's marriage to Ji Xiaohan was due to her giving two children to Ji Family. They really didn't think much of Tang Youyou, Ji Xiaohan was a man with a strong business purpose, so he probably only cared about his career and his wealth.
But it was obvious that the scene in the banquet hall today had given them a feeling of shock.
Ji Xiaohan was always close to Tang Youyou, protecting her and taking care of her in the dark. He did not want to be too sweet.
Tang Youyou's existence made all the girls jealous.
Maybe one woman wouldn't be jealous of another woman having money and looks, but they would definitely be jealous of a woman being cared for by a man.
At the main entrance of the banquet hall, Ji Lin brought his son, Ji Shangqing, with him.
They did not come in immediately, but exchanged glances.
"Why did you bring me here?" Ji Shangqing's expression was a bit ugly, he never thought that his father would bring him to a place, it was actually a celebratory di
er coming to Ji Family.
"Didn't you want to look at Tang Youyou a few more times? Let's go in, she should be inside. " Ji Lin mocked him.
Ji Shangqing's face turned even paler. He snorted and said, "Even if I want to see her, I don't want to be in this place. Coming here is a huge blow to me."
"So you were actually able to be shocked by others. I even thought that your heart had long ago become as calm as water." Ji Lin also snorted. Recently, his fighting spirit had been rising, but his son's fighting spirit had been declining. This made him suddenly feel threatened. He had to bring his son here to receive some stimulation.
Ji Shangqing couldn't be bothered with him and turned around to leave.
"Shang Qing, do you not even have the courage to face your opponent? That really disappoints me! " Ji Lin instantly became stern.
Ji Shangqing didn't even take five steps before he turned back and mocked Ji Lin, "You don't need to provoke me like that. I know what I'm doing!"
With that, Ji Shangqing stepped into the banquet hall.
Ji Lin's smile froze.
Not long after the Wu father and son duo entered the field, Ji Yueze also came. Since Big Bro won such a big project, of course he would be happy for him from the bottom of his heart.
However, the moment he stepped in, he saw Ji Shangqing and his son's expressions instantly become unsightly.
Why did these two people come ru
ing over as well?
Ji Shangqing was gently pushed by his father and pointed behind him with his eyes.
Ji Shangqing looked back and met Ji Yueze's gaze. The anger in their eyes was enough to burn each other into ashes.
"Hmph, disheartening!" Ji Shangqing immediately turned around and left, with an expression like he didn't want to be in the same frame as Ji Yueze.
Ji Yueze's expression was also extremely ugly. He coldly snorted and walked in the opposite direction.
Ji Shangqing passed through the crowd and saw Ji Xiaohan and Tang Youyou in the distance. They were surrounded by a group of guests, chatting with a smile and the atmosphere was warm.
Ji Shangqing immediately stopped. He clenched the wine cup tightly. If it wasn't for the good quality of the cup, he would have shattered it.
The hardest thing in the world was to love, but now, he didn't even have the qualifications to love anymore.
Ji Shangqing felt like his heart was on fire, burning all the way to his brain. His brain was buzzing, and everything around him seemed to be separated by this fire. He could only drink the cold liquor in his glass to clear his mind.
"He's bullying me, bullying me to this extent!" Ji Shangqing muttered, and directly treated Ji Xiaohan as the si
er who took away his beloved.
He had not come on his own accord today, so he was not interested in anything that was happening around him. He just sat on the side of the bar and drank one cup after another.
All of the guests present were basically here to curry favor with Ji Xiaohan. Ji Shangqing didn't have his father's ambition and snobbish attitude and naturally couldn't rob his customers at Ji Xiaohan's banquet.
Recently, he had secretly communicated with a group of forces and directly went to the current President's Palace. This was the reason why Ji Lin was still able to do it with ease after entering the country. He picked a rough log that he thought was the biggest and carried it with him.
Ji Lin came here today to chat about the President's faction, so he had a good time.
Everyone felt that they had the best chance of wi
ing, but it still needed time to prove who won and who lost.
Ji Yueze walked to his brother's side and drank a cup of wine. With a dark expression, he asked, "Brother, why did you invite those two over? Haven't you put them on your blacklist yet? "
Ji Xiaohan had already noticed Ji Lin and his son. At this moment, his brother's words made him lower his voice, "Consider this as giving face to grandpa and grandma. After all, they are family. It would only cause gossip if you don't invite them."
"Big brother, you're the only one who cares about this. If it were me, I wouldn't have let them take even half a step inside." Ji Yueze's character had always been a bit fierce. He wasn't like Ji Xiaohan, who was good at scheming. He only relied on his character to do things.
"Alright, let them be. Just ignore them." Ji Xiaohan patted on his younger brother's shoulder to comfort him.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Tang Youyou, who was standing to the side and listening to the conversation between brothers, turned her gaze in that direction.
Unexpectedly, she directly met Ji Shangqing's resentful eyes, causing her expression to freeze.
Ji Shangqing raised his glass towards her as a greeting, but that look in his eyes was enough to make people flustered.
Tang Youyou could only tighten her gaze and stop looking at him. Was this Ji Shangqing drunk? He actually stared at her without blinking, even with so many people staring at him.
Ji Xiaohan also noticed this and narrowed his eyes. He then instructed Lu Qing who was beside him, "When Ji Shangqing is drunk, tell a few people to carry him away."
