Bai Yuning's woman's intuition told her that perhaps Ji Zihan would really appear here.

She nodded politely to Jiang Keyan, "Ms. Jiang. Long time no see."

Jiang Keyan sneered and let out an unpleasant laugh.

"Tsk, what a coincidence. I haven't seen you come to the company recently, and I thought you resigned. I didn't expect you to be living such a comfortable life, and even got to attend such a high-end banquet."

Bai Yuning suppressed her suspicion and replied as if nothing had happened, "Miss Jiang has also made it this far, so we are the same."

Jiang Keyan sneered, "I was invited here. I am naturally different from you. And..."

She picked up the champagne on the table and took a sip, her raised eyes full of provocation.

"You probably don't know, but Zi Han will be here soon."

Bai Yuning's heart sank and her cheeks tightened slightly after hearing this.

Sure enough, the social event that Ji Zihan was talking about was here.

Is he with Jiang Keyan? Why can't I see him now?

She looked at Jiang Keyan, but her eyes stayed on the paper bag that Jiang Keyan had casually placed on the ground. The bag was obviously large enough to hold clothes.

The LOGO on the paper tape was very eye-catching, and Bai Yuning remembered it at just one glance.

Isn’t this the women’s clothing brand that she accidentally saw that day that Ji Zihan was searching for on his mobile phone?

Why does Jiang Keyan also have a paper bag of the same brand in her hand?

Is it such a coincidence? Is it a coincidence or... or was it given to her by Ji Zihan?

It’s not her fault that she is too sensitive, it’s just such a coincidence that it’s hard for her not to think too much.

Bai Yuning's brain suddenly became confused as if it were filled with paste.

Just this guess made her feel flustered.

She didn't want to make any more wild guesses, so she asked Jiang Keyan, "Why did Mr. Ji come? Did he come with you?"

Jiang Keyan's tone at this moment was serious.

"Guess who invited me? It was Director Liu from the film and television industry."

"Zi Han came here to contact Director Liu because of me. You know, unless he wants to, ordinary people can't call him."

Bai Yuning clenched her teeth.

She knew Ji Zihan's personality, so she was worried about Jiang Keyan's importance in Ji Zihan's heart.

It was also because Ji Zihan's attitude was too vague. It would have been fine if she hadn't seen Jiang Keyan, but as soon as she saw her, she inexplicably developed a sense of crisis.

She was eager to know an answer, but the previous tests told her that Ji Zihan was obviously not ready to make any statement.

He's still trying to escape.

Just as Bai Yuning was daydreaming, Li Yuze also returned to the high table.

He looked at the extra Jiang Keyan and asked Bai Yuning, "Who is this?"

Bai Yuning didn't say anything.

Jiang Keyan introduced herself to the crowd, put away her previous contemptuous smile, and extended her hand calmly.

"Hello, I'm JS's contracted artist Jiang Keyan."

Li Yuze doesn't pay attention to the entertainment industry and doesn't know who she is. He just heard that she is an artist of JS and thought she is Bai Yuning's colleague.

He nodded and extended his hand for a polite shake.

"Li Group, Li Yuze."

Jiang Keyan heard, Li Group?

Isn’t this also the company whose stock price has skyrocketed recently in Haishi?

Bai Yuning actually knew him? It seemed that her ability was not to be underestimated.

Although she was disdainful, she had been in the social world for many years, so she naturally wanted to leave a good impression on these wealthy young men. Maybe it would come in handy someday in the future.

Hiding her emotions, she smiled in a self-recognizing smile and said in a sweet voice, "It turns out to be Mr. Li. Nice to meet you."

Li Yuze didn't say anything more to her, but looked at Bai Yuning, whose expression looked a little strange.

"Ningning, are you... okay?"

Bai Yuning raised her eyes and shook her head at him.

"It's okay. Maybe there are too many people here and it's a bit stuffy."

Li Yuze looked at her worriedly, "There's an open-air lounge next to it. Can I take you out for some fresh air?"

She nodded, which was perfect. Out of sight, out of mind.

So he replied, “Okay.”

Follow Li Yuze to the open-air lounge.

At this time, night has fallen, and the CBD of Haishi is covered in shining neon lights, prosperous and noisy, the night is clear and the stars are bright.

Li Yuze stared at Bai Yuning, who was leaning on the railing in front of him in a daze, and felt a little worried.

"Ningning, are you... worried about something?"

"Is it because of the Song family's matter?"

Bai Yuning shook her head and did not answer.

"What's the matter? You looked very bad from the beginning."

The more caring Li Yuze's attitude was and the gentler his tone was, the more aggrieved Bai Yuning felt.

After knowing each other for more than ten years, he has become a family member that she can rely on, just like Li En.

Half of her face was hidden in the dark night, and she said sullenly, "Brother Yuze, I have fallen in love with someone."

Li Yuze tightened his slender fingers that were resting on the railing.

Bai Yuning continued, "But he doesn't seem to like me that much."

She spoke in a calm and even tone, but to Li Yuze, every word felt like a sharp blade piercing his heart.

He knew that she was talking about another man.

It has nothing to do with him.

She didn't even consider him as a possible male.

Maybe he is my brother, or maybe he is a friend I have known for a long time, so he can confess so calmly.
