Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den

As the night fell, it was as if a huge black velvet slowly fell, decorating the sky with mystery and solemnity. Luxury cars carrying celebrities slowly drove into the luxurious medieval castle. The bright lights of the castle shone in the night, like bright stars, decorating the land like a fairyland.

Ji Yan was wearing a dark blue backless evening gown, like a beautiful black swan, elegant and noble. Her skin was as white as jade, her eyebrows were white, her teeth were white, and her eyes were as clear as water, staring straight at Ji Mingyu and Li Qing in front of her. Although she looked relaxed, her fingers quietly grasped the edge of her skirt, revealing her inner tension and anxiety.

Helian Minxiao stood in front of the French window on the third floor, overlooking the entire hall. A gleam of light flashed in his blue eyes, and when his eyes fell on Ji Yan behind the Ji family couple, his eyes instantly became hot.

He looked at the men at the banquet staring at Ji Yan's beautiful figure, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart, as if he wanted to dig out their eyes.

"The cat is here. I'll go down first." Fu Jingyan walked down the stairs slowly, holding a glass of whiskey. His eyes swept through the crowd and finally stopped on Ji Yan. He smiled slightly, like a blooming rose, with a charming fragrance.

"Mr. Ji, Mrs. Ji, hello." Jiang Zhixian said with a regretful tone, "It's a pity that we can't become in-laws."

Ji Mingyu responded with a smile: "It's okay, the child's thoughts are the most important." He looked gently at his daughter beside him, his eyes full of love and trust.

Jiang Zhixian seemed to suddenly think of something and quickly introduced: "By the way, this is my youngest son Jiang Youchuan. He just came back from studying abroad and is the same age as your daughter." He took the opportunity to push Jiang Youchuan in front of Ji Yan, hoping that the two of them could have more opportunities to interact.

"Hello, Uncle Ji, Aunt Ji, and Miss Ji. Miss Ji is so beautiful tonight." Jiang Youchuan greeted everyone.

Ji Yan felt Jiang Youchuan's eyes on her, she looked up at him, then nodded slightly. Jiang Youchuan smiled shyly, revealing two shallow dimples. He looked at Ji Yan, with a hint of shyness and expectation in his eyes.

Ji Mingyu looked at Jiang Youchuan and nodded slightly, but his attitude was not very enthusiastic. He knew his daughter's personality and thoughts well, and would not force her to do something she didn't like.

Jiang Zhixian didn't seem to notice Ji Mingyu's cold attitude. He continued to suggest enthusiastically: "Young people have their own topics. Why not let them talk for themselves? Haha!"

Ji Mingyu smiled but didn't respond directly. He noticed the look Ji Yan gave him, a look that was asking for help. He knew in his heart that his daughter didn't want to be alone with others, so he spoke up to help her: "Haha, I'm so sorry, my daughter is a little shy."

Ji Yan looked at her father gratefully when she heard this. She knew that her father was helping her out and respecting her wishes.

But Jiang Youchuan never gave up and tried to talk to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan frowned slightly in the crowd. Her eyes occasionally swept across Jiang Youchuan's figure, and her heart could not help but surge. She didn't want to have too much communication with this man. His eyes always made her feel uncomfortable. So, she decided to tell her mother Li Qing that she needed to take a rest.

"Mom, I feel a little uncomfortable and want to rest for a while." Ji Yan said softly to Li Qing, her voice trembling slightly.

Li Qing looked at her daughter worriedly and patted the back of her hand gently. "Okay, go ahead. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me. Don't force yourself."

Just as Ji Yan was about to turn around and leave, the crowd suddenly became agitated. Everyone moved to the left and right to make way for a passage. Ji Yan looked up and saw a tall man walking slowly towards her.

He was wearing a military uniform, and the navy blue wool coat tightly wrapped around his tall figure. A row of hand-carved silver buttons fastened to the collar, revealing his slender neck. His steps were vigorous and powerful, and he slowly walked towards Ji Mingyu with an invisible sense of oppression.

"Mr. Ji." The man's voice was low and powerful. Although there was a respectful title in his words, his tone was disrespectful, as if he was just talking to a peer.

Ji Mingyu looked at the handsome man in front of him with doubt. Since he didn't show up often, few people had seen his true face. He frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

"Fu Jingyan, nice to meet you." The man introduced himself briefly, and then said, "Mu Jing will be late due to something, so he asked me to say on his behalf that he apologizes for the poor hospitality."

"No, no, it's already very good." Ji Mingyu nodded, showing his understanding. His eyes fell on Fu Jingyan, and he couldn't help but secretly marvel in his heart. The temperament exuded by this man is unique and cannot be ignored.

At this moment, Jiang Youchuan's eyes were fixed on Ji Yan. His eyes were full of obsession and desire, as if he wanted to devour her whole body. Fu Jingyan's eyes flashed with cruelty and displeasure, but soon returned to an indifferent expression.

Ji Yan felt Fu Jingyan's eyes on her, and her heart tightened. That name - Fu Jingyan, seemed to open her Pandora's box, and the pain that she didn't want to think of emerged in her mind. Her little face turned pale in an instant, and her little hand tightly pulled Li Qing's sleeve.

"Mom, I suddenly want to go to the bathroom." Ji Yan's voice was slightly trembling and anxious.

Li Qing looked at her daughter worriedly, "Are you okay? Do you want me to go with you?"

"No need, Mom. I can do it myself." Ji Yan said with forced calmness, then turned around and left quickly.

Looking at their daughter's back as she left, Ji Mingyu and Li Qing exchanged worried looks. They knew that Fu Jingyan was of noble status and could not be easily offended, so they could only stay where they were and continue talking to him.

"Girls all feel unwell sometimes, don't worry." Fu Jingyan seemed to see Ji Mingyu and Li Qing's worry and spoke to comfort them.

His eyes followed Ji Yan's back until she disappeared in the crowd. Looking at the woman's back as she turned and left in a panic, he nodded with satisfaction in his heart.

He knew that she had not forgotten him. When he saw Ji Yan's beautiful white back exposed in front of everyone, his eyes shrank tightly, and a dangerous light flashed across them. He wanted to take off his coat immediately and rush forward to cover her mutton-fat skin.

But at this moment, he saw a familiar figure following behind Ji Yan. Seeing the appearance of the newcomer, Fu Jingyan's tension eased a little. He continued to talk with Ji Mingyu and his wife, while the guests around him were forced to retreat by the low pressure emanating from him.
