Chapter 90 You Will Regret It

Ji Xiaonuan was a bit dazed. "I don't think there's any need for us to meet, right?"

There really wasn't much for her to talk about with Yang Wanrong.

Moreover, it was really strange that Yang Wanrong would look for her at this time. No matter how she thought about it, it seemed fishy.

"I have something very important to tell you, something about Brother Muchen," Yang Wanrong said in a solemn voice.

"Oh, but I don't want to know," Ji Xiaonuan said indifferently.

"Ji Xiaonuan, if you don't come, you'll regret it!" There was a hint of annoyance in Yang Wanrong's voice.

Ji Xiaonuan frowned unhappily. She had no good feelings towards Yang Wanrong at all, but Yang Wanrong had called out of the blue, and at such a time.

"No need. If I want to know something about Chi Jun'an, it's more convenient for me to ask him directly now," Ji Xiaonuan said in a solemn voice.

Yang Wanrong on the other end was stunned for a moment. But then, she asked angrily, "Ji Xiaonuan, what do you mean? Does that mean Chi Jun'an is by your side? Or do you actually live together?!"

Ji Xiaonuan was silent.

She had taken the bus to and from work these days and hadn't been with Chi Jun'an, so no one had made wild guesses about their relationship. Even Yang Wanrong hadn't discovered that she actually lived in the Chi family mansion.

Although she didn't mind if Yang Wanrong found out, she wouldn't be as childish as Yang Wanrong to show off such a thing.

"It's none of your business, right?" Ji Xiaonuan said indifferently. "On the contrary, you, Professor Wang's banquet is about to start. Don't tell me you're trying to trick me into going out so that I can't attend the banquet?"

"You...!" Yang Wanrong was extremely angry.

She did have that intention to some extent.

When Professor Wang said he was going to invite Chi Jun'an and Ji Xiaonuan, she didn't have any objections at first, thinking that she could cause some trouble for Ji Xiaonuan at that time. But she didn't expect that Professor Wang would admire Ji Xiaonuan so much. She didn't want Ji Xiaonuan to steal the show at all!

Yang Wanrong had tried to persuade Professor Wang many times these days, but Professor Wang was determined to invite her and she couldn't persuade him at all.

So Yang Wanrong had come up with this idea to trick Ji Xiaonuan into not attending the banquet.

"It seems that's really the case. Yang Wanrong, can't we be a bit more mature?" Ji Xiaonuan guessed. "If you really have something to say, why don't we talk about it when we meet tonight?"

"Ji Xiaonuan!" Yang Wanrong's voice suddenly turned cold. She said harshly, "You will regret it!"

Ji Xiaonuan frowned slightly.

Although Yang Wanrong had said this before, this time it made her feel an inexplicable shiver. Did it mean that Yang Wanrong was planning to do something to her at the dinner party?

There would be so many people there, and Chi Jun'an would also be there. Yang Wanrong wouldn't really dare to do something to her right under so many people's eyes, would she?

"Xiaoxi, how's the preparation going?" Chi Jun'an knocked on her door.

"Not yet," Ji Xiaonuan put down her phone.

"What happened?" Chi Jun'an raised his eyebrows slightly. He had seen Ji Xiaonuan's expression just now.

"It's nothing. I just received a phone call," Ji Xiaonuan smiled faintly.

"Who called?" he asked.

Ji Xiaonuan hesitated for a moment. "It was Yang Wanrong."

It was a small matter for her, and there was no need to hide it from Chi Jun'an.

"What did she call for?" Chi Jun'an's expression turned slightly cold.

"Nothing much. She probably wanted to trick me out. When she didn't succeed, she just threatened me a few words," Ji Xiaonuan shrugged.

Chi Jun'an thought thoughtfully.

Yang Wanrong was definitely not the kind of person who just threatened others. If she threatened, it must mean that she had some plans.

"Prepare first," he chuckled and closed the door.

Outside the door, Chi Jun'an dialed a number. "Xinlan, keep a close eye on Yang Wanrong throughout the whole process tonight!"

After hanging up the phone, Chi Jun'an's eyes became deeper.

There would be a lot of people at the dinner party. Yang Wanrong might not do it herself. She was likely to use someone else to do it. Just keeping an eye on her might not be enough.

It seemed that tonight was destined to be an unpeaceful night.

Ji Xiaonuan finished getting ready, and Chi Jun'an took her to Professor Wang's house.

Getting out of the car, Ji Xiaonuan admired the villa in front of her. "Professor Wang really knows how to enjoy life."

Chi Jun'an smiled faintly, which could be regarded as agreeing with her statement.

"Let's go. It's time to go in," he reminded calmly.

"Are we going in together?" Ji Xiaonuan asked worriedly. "Won't others think too much about it?"

"No, they won't," Chi Jun'an said indifferently. "At most, they'll think of you as my female companion."

"Alright," Ji Xiaonuan finally compromised.

Chi Jun'an bent his arm. Ji Xiaonuan blushed and finally took it.

The two of them walked into the hall together. The people who had been chatting and laughing suddenly fell silent and all looked towards the door.

It was actually Chi Jun'an. Most of the people at the banquet knew him. It wasn't that strange for him to come.

However, there was actually a woman by Chi Jun'an's side?!

Anyone who knew him well knew that if they were to describe their impression of Chi Jun'an in four words, it definitely wouldn't be something like "handsome and elegant" or "graceful". Instead, it would be "indifferent to women".

When they were at school, Chi Jun'an was indifferent to all the girls. He didn't know how many hearts he had broken. Although Yang Wanrong always took the opportunity to follow him at that time, it was obvious to all that Chi Jun'an had no interest in her at all.

Even when Chi Jun'an had taken the initiative to admit his private relationship in front of the media before, without seeing his significant other, they didn't really believe it.

But now Chi Jun'an had actually brought a woman with him!

Everyone's eyes fell on Ji Xiaonuan. The next moment, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Ji Xiaonuan was really beautiful.

The blue dress was simple, elegant, and solemn, which matched her temperament very well and didn't look out of place in such an occasion. Moreover, in the face of so many people's gazes, there was a natural and generous smile on her lips. She wasn't timid, nor was she complacent, which made people feel very comfortable.

If Ji Xiaonuan knew what others were thinking, she would probably want to cry. God knew that her face was almost frozen with a smile, but why were these people still staring at her?

Seeing that after everyone looked at Ji Xiaonuan, they couldn't seem to take their eyes off her, Chi Jun'an raised his eyebrows unhappily.

"Muchen, you're here too?" Someone came to his senses and walked towards the two of them with a smile. "This is..."

"My female companion," Chi Jun'an said indifferently, with no intention of introducing further.

The person nodded understandingly and didn't ask further. But Ji Xiaonuan could tell that others didn't believe it at all.

"You said others wouldn't misunderstand, right?" Ji Xiaonuan maintained the smile on her face and whispered to Chi Jun'an.

"They're not misunderstanding," Chi Jun'an smiled faintly. "If you don't believe it, you can ask."
