Fated?
Jian Ai chuckled in her heart.
She did not mind being fated with Ji Haoxue.
But Ji Haoyu? That was more like an ill-fated relationship.
At this moment, Ji Haoxue suddenly grabbed Jian Ai’s hand and said, “Sister Xiao Ai, when are you free? Come to our house as a guest?”
“Huh?” Jian Ai was stunned and didn’t react. “Go to your house as a guest?”
Ji Haoxue quickly nodded. “That’s right. My grandfather said that he wanted me to invite you to our house as a guest.”
Old Master Ji?
Jian Ai paused for a moment and thought for a moment before nodding. “Alright, anytime is fine before school starts.”
Because Old Master Ji had visited her mother a few times when she was hospitalized, she had always wanted to thank him in person. This was an opportunity.
Unexpectedly, Jian Ai agreed immediately. Ji Haoxue nodded in surprise. “Alright, I’ll arrange it and call you in the next two days.”
Jian Ai smiled and nodded.
Ji Haoyu was sitting at the side and naturally heard their conversation. He couldn’t help but raise his handsome eyebrows and look at Jian Ai meaningfully.
Was she going to the Ji residence as a guest?
At this moment, a large group of waiters pushing carts suddenly rushed in from the end of the corridor.
Seeing this, everyone in the cocktail party smiled at the same time and leaned towards the round stage in the middle.
Jian Ai was still pondering when Wu Bi reached out and patted her shoulder. “Let’s go. Didn’t I tell you there would be something fun? Let’s look.”
Jian Ai blinked in surprise. After being tormented by Ji Haoyu, she almost forgot the reason she came to this cocktail party. It was because Brother Wu Bi said that there was something fun.
She quickly stood up and followed Wu Bi.
Ji Haoyu looked at their backs, and his heart stopped for no reason.
“Brother, let’s go over and look too!” Ji Haoxue said as she pulled Ji Haoyu’s hand and followed.
The round stage in the middle was enormous. Everyone stopped at the edge and looked curiously at the carts covered in cloth in the middle of the stage.
At this moment, Jian Ai also realized that everyone around her seemed to be excited. Be it the men in suits or the women in evening gowns, their eyes were filled with innocence and anticipation.
“Brother Wu Bi, what are they doing?” Jian Ai asked curiously.
‘Wu Bi smiled mysteriously and kept her in suspense. “You’ll know in a while!”
At this moment, a middle-aged man with neatly combed hair and an orange suit walked up to the center stage with a microphone in his hand.
Seeing this, everyone started to clap.
After a while, the middle-aged man raised his hand with a smile and gestured for everyone to stop. Then, he slowly said, “Hello, entrepreneurs of Baiyun City’s business world. Good evening! Welcome to the thirty-sixth Langxing Gala in Baiyun City. I am the vice president of Baiyun City’s Chamber of
Commerce, Li Shaogiu!”
Applause sounded again.
Then, Li Shaogiu continued with a smile, “The Langxing Gala has always been a grand event in the business world of Baiyun City. Everyone is usually busy with their corporations and families. The Langxing Gala has always upheld the goal of freedom, relaxation, and joy. It is determined to give everyone
full entertainment and enjoyment every year during this day.”
“Let’s not talk too much. I believe everyone has been looking forward to this segment for a long time. Let’s start immediately!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shaogiu walked to one cart that was about ten meters long and pulled off the silk covering it without hesitation. “Today’s first competition. Eating watermelons!”
