The yandere CEO’s Black Moonlight is reborn again
Chapter 207: Peace Banquet
Chapter 207: Peace Banquet
"Just reject it directly, and then the two families will stop communicating? Grandpa must have forgotten who is the head of the Jiang family now?"
After her reminder, Mr. Ye realized that he was getting senile and confused.
Jiang Yixuan is the head of the Jiang family now, so isn’t what the Jiang family means what he means?
So, it wasn't that she didn't want to refuse the engagement party, but Jiang Yixuan didn't want to let go of her ready-made money bag.
……
The result of Ye Qingan's negotiations with the Jiang family came out quickly.
Jiang Yixuan was naturally unwilling to hold an apology banquet for Ye Xi, but because Ye Qing'an went there personally, he didn't know what he said, but in the end the Jiang family agreed to hold the banquet, but only called it a peace banquet. And they didn't invite everyone in the family like an engagement, but only invited wealthy children of the same age.
Although the Jiang family could not compare with the Ye family, they were upstarts after all, and Jiang Yixuan was proud and arrogant. Ye Xi was well aware of the principle that when you surround your army, there must be something missing, so he did not press them any further.
Anyway, she never thought that Jiang Yixuan would sincerely apologize to her, so a peace banquet was enough.
On the day of the banquet, many noblemen came, many of whom were acquaintances of Ye Xi and Jiang Yixuan.
As soon as Ye Xi arrived, he heard people talking.
"I heard that this is a peace banquet. Who is asking for peace?"
A woman said disdainfully: "Do you even need to ask? It must be that lickspittle Ye Xi."
There was a burst of laughter all around.
"Keep your voice down so she can't hear you," another girl quickly reminded.
"What are you afraid of? Young Master Jiang will be here soon, and she will be busy serving him. How can she have time to take care of us?" The girl looked disapproving.
"Speaking of which, Young Master Jiang openly left her at the last engagement party. Was she really not angry at all?" someone else gossiped.
"How could he not be angry? I heard he was so angry that he fainted and slept for a whole day and night before waking up."
"Then why are they actively seeking peace? And why are they hosting a banquet? And will Young Master Jiang really come?"
"What do you know? A dog licks a dog, a dog will never stop eating shit!"
There was another round of laughter.
The voices of the crowd's discussions reached Ye Xi's ears clearly. She stood on the upper floor, overlooking the area below, her heart calm.
The maid serving nearby was terrified. Just as she was hesitating whether to say something to comfort her mistress, she heard Ye Xi ask, "Is Jiang Yixuan here?"
The maid immediately came back to her senses and glanced around the hall, but did not see Jiang Yixuan.
"Master Jiang...maybe it will take a while."
The time for the banquet has arrived, and all the invited guests have arrived as scheduled, but Jiang Yixuan, the host, has not come yet. It is hard not to feel that he is trying to intimidate her.
Ye Xi sat down on the cushion next to him and said impatiently, "Call him and tell him that if he doesn't come within ten minutes, I'll leave directly."
This banquet was originally held by the Jiang family specifically for her. If she left, it would be a slap in the face of the Jiang family. Jiang Yixuan would not allow such a thing to happen.
"Ah...oh, okay."
In fact, the maid’s idea was similar to that of everyone downstairs. After all, Ye Xi’s previous actions were obvious to all. But Ye Xi’s face was obviously not good today, so she didn’t dare to offend him.
Sure enough, within ten minutes after he finished the call, Jiang Yixuan appeared at the entrance of the banquet.
He was wearing a white suit and had a slender figure. As soon as he appeared, he instantly attracted everyone's attention. As he walked in, different people took turns to greet him. Some of them were from families higher than the Jiang family, but without exception, they were very respectful to him. Many people kept saying good things to flatter him, and of course, they would also belittle her in their words to serve as a foil.
Now that Jiang Yixuan has arrived, the other protagonist of her party should also appear.
Ye Xi lifted the hem of her haute couture dress, slowly walked down the crystal-paved stairs, and walked into everyone's sight step by step. She had a calm smile on her face, as if she didn't hear the mocking words.
When they saw her, the noisy crowd quieted down for a moment, and after the guilt of being caught, they were filled with unconcealable amazement.
A pure white strapless long dress with a train outlines her exquisite figure. Her long hair is tied into an elegant bun, and a few strands of hair hang by her ears, making her skin look as white and delicate as cream. Her eyes are moving, and her charm is revealed in her glance.
She stood at the crystal steps, looking around, taking in everyone's expressions. She raised a sneer at the corner of her lips and slowly said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I'm late."
"Haha, it's not too late, Miss Ye, please!"
Those who had just looked down on and cursed her behind her back now smiled friendlyly in front of her and made way for Ye Xi to pass.
Ye Xi walked towards the center of the banquet hall in her high heels, swaying with every step.
At the banquet podium, Jiang Yixuan was standing there holding a glass of red wine.
It is undeniable that his appearance is quite good, at least in this banquet hall, he is one of the best.
Ye Xi walked up to him and stopped.
"Mr. Jiang?" She reminded him.
Jiang Yixuan glanced at her and ignored her, just picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
The people below saw it and immediately some of them started sneering.
"Look, Young Master Jiang doesn't even want to pay attention to her, but she still approaches him eagerly."
"That's right. She was dumped but still had the nerve to go back to him. If I were her, I would have found a hole in the ground to crawl into."
"How shameless!"
"."
Ye Xi looked at the crowd whispering in the audience, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
Jiang Yixuan seemed to sense Ye Xi's displeasure, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a mocking arc.
Ye Xi, weren't you very proud before? Today he was going to get back all the face he had lost before.
Ye Xi remained silent, and the discussion in the audience became louder and louder. It was not until Jiang Yixuan felt that it was enough that he spoke slowly:
"Miss Ye..."
"Jiang Yixuan."
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Ye Xi.
Unlike the previous politeness, this time she called him by his full name.
Jiang Yixuan frowned, raised his eyes, and met her condescending gaze.
"Is this the attitude of your Jiang family in seeking peace?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar.
"Who did she say asked for peace?"
"Did she take the wrong medicine today? Young Master Jiang asked her to make peace? Has she forgotten how she acted like a lapdog before?"
"It's so funny."
But soon, they stopped laughing.
On the stage, Jiang Yixuan listened to the people below and slowly regained his confidence. He took a sip of wine and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, I am willing to come today, you should be satisfied. I advise you to stop while you are ahead, otherwise I won't be so easy to talk to next time."
"Really?" Ye Xi smiled.
"But, today, I'm not very talkative."
