Ke Jin nodded and began preparing.
"I didn't." Shang Xiaomo who was poked in the center of the matter stared at him without admitting it.
Soon after, he heard Ke Jin's words from the microphone.
The gazes of the guests in the venue were firmly fixed on the two people.
The invitation they accepted was very sudden, and the marriage between Ji Family and Shang Clan could be said to be the most important thing that happened to them in the city.
The scandal that Ji Aohan stirred up and the reputation of the merchants were all because of this matter, so no one paid any more attention to them.
"Now, the ceremony officially begins. Please exchange your engagement rings." As soon as Ke Jin finished speaking, a person walked out from the left and right of them, holding a plate and a red box, he slowly walked towards them.
Without thinking about anything else, Shang Xiaomo's hands started to tremble uncontrollably. Could it be that today, she was really going to be engaged to Ji Yanxi?
Shang Xiaomo felt that everything that was happening now was like a dream, making her feel that it was not real. Was she going to be engaged to this man in front of her, this man that she had once liked but was disappointed in him?
Ji Yanxi's bottomless black eyes firmly locked onto Shang Xiaomo. Honestly speaking, his method wasn't very glorious in the first place, so if he wanted to get engaged with Shang Xiaomo, he couldn't care less.
Thus, he decided to just make himself a shameless person. If he was with her, he could do whatever he wanted with her.
"Could Mister Ji please put the ring on Miss Shang's middle finger." Following Ke Jin's gaze, Ji Yanxi picked up the incomparably dazzling pink diamond, earnestly held Shang Xiaomo's hand, and slowly put it into her white and exquisite ring finger.
Then, Ji Yanxi bent down and kissed her hand, his lips moving slightly, "Who said he wasn't nervous? You're sweating. "
Shang Xiaomo pursed her lips, although she said so, she did not want to. After all, this was the first time she had experienced such a thing, and she was truly nervous.
"Alright, I now ask Miss Shang to wear the ring on …" Ke Jin's words were cut off by the voice on the other side of the red carpet.
"Wait a moment." A gentle and clear voice came out. Ji Aohan who came out of nowhere walked out from the shadows step by step with a serious and serious expression on his face. Those who did not know what he was doing would think that he was going to steal the marriage.
The atmosphere seemed to have stopped at this moment. The originally bustling and lively venue instantly quieted down. Everyone was looking at what was going to happen next.
However, Ji Yanxi's expression became darker and darker, "Is he here to cause trouble?"
"Second Young Master, what can I do for you?" Ke Jin never thought that an accident would happen, but he was someone who had seen the world before, so after panicking for a moment, he immediately recovered and spoke calmly.
"I have a question to ask." Ji Aohan ignored the astonished gazes of others and had already walked to the very front. Looking at Shang Xiaomo who was two steps away from him, he asked with hope: "Did you like me before?"
Once again, there was complete silence, followed by the sound of whispers.
"Didn't Young Master Ji always bring this new young miss to and from various gatherings? We all thought they were a couple. "
"Yeah, I was also shocked by Chief Shang's sudden appearance in Engagement party. I heard it's someone from the Shang Clan, I thought it was Shang Yunyun who went abroad."
"Nope." With so many noises, Ji Aohan could only concentrate on listening to Shang Xiaomo's answer. Strangely, he felt relieved when he heard her reply.
"I just treated you as a good friend. I really wanted to get married, but that was only because of Qi Qi." Shang Xiaomo stared at him with sincerity. It was only after she was with Ji Yanxi that she realized the difference between being moved and loving.
"Xiaomo, I also have something to tell you." Qin Shanshan, who had not seen her for a long time, walked out from behind Ji Aohan. Her hands strangely rested on her stomach.
Looking at her movements other than the movements of her stomach, "It looks like she's pregnant." Shang Xiaomo suppressed the doubts in her heart, tilted her head, and looked at the two people in front of her with a puzzled expression.
"However, this place isn't too suitable. Can we change to another place to talk?" Qin Shanshan asked.
Shang Xiaomo also seemed to have forgotten that she was currently engaged to Ji Yanxi, and that there were many pairs of eyes watching her from below.
She actually walked towards Qin Shanshan, "Don't go." Just as Shang Xiaomo took a step forward, she grabbed her hand and shook her head slightly.
Now was not the time to talk about other things. The most important thing was that their engagement ceremony had to be successfully completed.
Furthermore, Ji Yanxi didn't know why, but he felt a sense of unease in his heart, as if something would happen if she went.
"It's about the Quarterly, and if you don't listen you will regret it." As Qin Shanshan spoke, she continued to stroke her bulging stomach, as if she didn't see the look in her eyes and she was still looking at her. She was using this weakness of Shang Xiaomo to achieve her goal, and she also knew that Shang Xiaomo would definitely come.
Shang Xiaomo's line of sight was currently between the two of them, patrolling back and forth, as though they were trying to find some clues. But Qin Shanshan's expression was too calm, so she wasn't able to discern anything.
"I think I'll go and listen." The curious Shang Xiaomo knew that the matter was not that simple, and Ji Yanxi had also said that it was just a formality, and it was more or less time for it, if he could retreat, then so be it.
Shang Xiaomo took the storage ring from the side and casually put it on Ji Yanxi's hand, then lightly said: "The engagement is over, right?"
