Although none of them were looking this way, she could clearly feel that all of their attention was on her.
Ji Jingchen led her inside without any change in expression. Wen Tiantian looked around and saw that everyone here was wearing formal attire, holding their wine glasses and chatting with each other with a coquettish smile.
Before she could finish looking at them all, a middle-aged woman wearing a dark blue suit walked over with a smile on her face.
Wen Tiantian's hair was tied into a bun and she was smiling. It should be Ji Jingchen's mother, but looking at the smiling face in front of her, she felt a little weird.
"Jingchen, why did you just arrive?" I thought something had happened to you, and I wanted to tell your brother to go find you. "
Before Ji Jingchen could say anything, she pulled Wen Tiantian and carefully sized her up.
"Nianyao, it's been a few years since we last met. The more you look, the better you look."
When Wen Tiantian heard this, she instantly tensed up.
"Have you seen me before?"
"I even hugged you before you left the country."
So it was before, that Jiang Nianyao probably couldn't recognize her as fake.
She gave a relaxed smile.
"Good evening, Mom …"
Just as she opened her mouth, Ji Jingchen suddenly pulled her back and interrupted her.
"It's late, let's begin the banquet."
The smile on Xu Cuiqin's face stiffened, as if she was trying hard to adjust the expression on her face.
At that moment, a man wearing a white suit and a bow tie walked over.
It was a very beautiful face, different from Ji Jingchen's strong and deep facial features. The corner of his mouth slightly raised, his movements were elegant to the extreme, and his chestnut colored hair was not combed behind most people's back, instead it drooped down to cover his shiny and clean forehead.
Under the gold-rimmed glasses, a pair of narrow and smiling eyes fell on Wen Tiantian's body, causing people to feel uncomfortable.
He walked over and casually supported Xu Cuiqin.
"Mom, I already said that brother will be fine. Isn't he already here?"
The person in front of him is Ji Jingchen's brother?
Ji Yiyan?
As soon as he arrived, Xu Cuiqin instantly relaxed and pulled Wen Tiantian to introduce him.
"This is your sister-in-law, Jiang Nianyao."
He smiled and nodded at Wen Tiantian.
"Good evening, Nianyao. Just call me Yiyan from now on."
Wen Tiantian was not used to being called so intimate from the start, but she still nodded.
"Alright."
Ji Jingchen frowned on the side and said with a calm voice, "Why aren't you starting?"
His tone was filled with dissatisfaction, but Ji Yiyan did not care and just smiled. He had a good temper.
"But I told the band to ask Dad to come over too. He's not feeling well today, so he's been resting at the back. "
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the band in the corner of the banquet hall.
As soon as he left, even Xu Cuiqin was called away.
Wen Tiantian stood stiffly beside Ji Jingchen, following the marker as if it was pestled in the middle of the banquet hall.
Since Ji Jingchen didn't say anything, she didn't dare to say it.
"Do you want to see your father?"
Ji Jingchen suddenly held her hand.
"It's begun."
It was only then that Wen Tiantian noticed that everyone had already retreated, leaving a central area.
The music slowly began.
Ji Jingchen led her onto the dance floor.
"Come on, ma'am."
Wen Tiantian looked up and saw a faint smile on his face.
Under the bright lights, she was as handsome as a god.
Next, he placed his hand on Wen Tiantian's back and threatened in a low voice.
"If you dare to step on it again, I'll leave you here."
