C117

Cold water ran down her face and down her chin, wetting the front of her skirt.

Wen Tiantian slowly opened her eyes and saw Jiang yao glaring at her.

"This is the last warning. If you still don't leave, don't blame me for taking action!"

With that, she put the empty cup on the table and left.

This place was located at the corner of the hall, so no one paid any attention to what was happening here.

Wen Tiantian stood in the same spot for a while before wiping away the water droplets on her face.

Although the temperature of the hall had been adjusted to be the most suitable one, but it was still cool to the touch of the water.

She looked around but she couldn't find Ji Jingchen. She lowered her head and walked towards the bathroom.

Wen Tiantian held the necklace on her neck.

Yes, she was selfish.

She didn't want to go.

If Ji Jingchen knew that she was faking it, what would he think of her?

Pain could be seen in those deep eyes? Anger?

Every single one of them was something Wen Tiantian did not want to see.

She hurried forward, wanting to get ready and return to Ji Jingchen's side.

Just as he took two steps forward, he was stopped by someone.

"Don't go near it."

Wen Tiantian subconsciously raised her head and saw two tall bodyguards standing in front of her. They were very tall, tall and strong.

Wen Tiantian was so busy walking just now that she almost bumped into them.

Behind them stood a woman in a long black dress.

She wore black lace gloves on her hands and a veil on her face, mysterious and noble.

Just standing there without moving was like a beautiful painting.

Behind her were a few servants.

Wen Tiantian was stunned.

"Sorry."

After saying that, she stood to the side.

The group continued walking forward. After a few steps, the young lady suddenly stopped when she reached her side.

"Wait."

Everyone answered and then stopped.

Wen Tiantian raised her head and saw that the other party's gaze had pierced through her veil and landed on her body.

Those eyes were gentle and strong.

The other party stared at her for a moment before slowly revealing a faint smile.

"You're wet."

With that, she handed over her handkerchief.

"Be careful."

There was a refreshing fragrance coming from the handkerchief and Wen Tiantian took it. On the soft black silk, the word "Ruan" was embroidered with golden threads.

Wen Tiantian was stunned as she vaguely guessed the identity of this lady in front of her.

She quickly lowered her head and bent down.

"Thank you Madam."

The other party nodded his head slightly before continuing on his way.

Wen Tiantian looked at the handkerchief in her hand, then turned around and walked towards the bathroom.

She had just turned around when Nguyen, who had already left, turned to look at her back.

The servant behind him whispered, "Madam, do you want to call her back?"

Madam Ruan looked at it for a long time before retracting her gaze.

"No need."

Then he turned and walked into the hall.

As soon as she walked in, over a hundred people in the hall instantly quieted down and looked in her direction in unison.

They looked at the young leader of the Ruan Family with respect. Regardless of whether it was an old man over a hundred years old or a rookie, none of them dared to act rashly at this moment.

The ancient and noble Ruan family had absolute power and right to speak.

A beak for a beak.

They all looked over, but did not dare meet Mrs. Nguyen's gaze. They maintained a polite and humble attitude.

Mrs. Nguyen slowly steps onto the stage in the center.

She looked around and gave a slow little smile.

"Welcome to Ruan's house."

On the other side, Wen Tiantian hurriedly came out of the bathroom.

The water stains on her face had been wiped clean, but her skirt was still a little cold.

After wiping it with a handkerchief given by Mrs. Nguyen, it was still not dry.

She carefully folded the handkerchief and put it away, then returned to the hall once more.

The moment she walked in, Wen Tiantian noticed that the atmosphere in the hall wasn't right.

She looked at the people around her and saw that their expressions were off. She didn't know what had happened.

As soon as she stepped inside, a hand reached out from behind her and grabbed her.

Wen Tiantian was so frightened that she turned her head and saw Ji Jingchen looking at her with a face full of dissatisfaction.

"Where have you been? I couldn't find you just now. "

Wen Tiantian said sweetly, "I went to the washroom. What happened here?"

Ji Jingchen looked around and said, "Madam Ruan came by just now."

Wen Tiantian nodded.

Ji Jingchen continued, "She announced her marriage."

"Marry?"

Wen Tiantian's eyes widened.

As far as she knew, Mrs. Nguyen was the only daughter of this generation of the Nguyen family, but she had always resisted the pressure to get married.

Now that they were almost forty, why would they suddenly decide to get married?

Not long after the death of the Ruan Family's former head, she had just taken over the family business.

Wen Tiantian looked around at the surroundings, seeing that everyone's expression was off, she became even more curious.

"It's just marriage. Why are they doing this?"

"Mrs. Nguyen only said she would get married, but she didn't announce the groom."

Firstly, it was because everyone was very surprised that Madam Nguyen chose to marry during the filial term.

Second, everyone was worried about who married Mrs. Nguyen.

If he could climb up the branch that was the Ruan Family, he would definitely rise quickly and perhaps take over the Ji Family and form the situation of having three legs in a row once again.

Furthermore, the Ruan Family had been flourishing since the beginning. Now that it had been combined with other families, it would definitely become the top family in the world.

This was bound to impact the businesses of all the clans present.

Thus, everyone present revealed worried expressions.

Wen Tiantian thought about it, but did not want to worry them like that.

"I don't think Mrs. Nguyen is the kind of person who would simply buy into someone else's business."

Ji Jingchen turned to look at her.

"For the Ruan Family to reach such a level, there must be more than a hundred businesses being annexed."

Hearing these words, Wen Tiantian still could not think of that gentle madam who could shake the world in the shopping mall.

The lady's gaze was very gentle.

As she thought about this, Wen Tiantian turned to look at Ji Jingchen.

"Aren't you worried?"

Ji Jingchen didn't seem to be worried at all. It was as if he wasn't afraid of the Ruan Family's attack at all.

He smiled faintly, a sharp glint appearing in his deep eyes.

"If that's all it is, then the M.I. group will fall, and I have no need to keep it."

With that, he pulled Wen Tianxue's hand.

"Alright, let's go back."

"Now?"

Wen Tiantian looked around. No one left the hall.

Judging by the time, they had only been here for about half an hour.

Ji JingChen said, "Madam Ruan has come by once, so she won't be coming over again. It's alright if you go back now."

With that, he pulled Wen Tiantian outside.

Just as they reached the door, Jiang Yingyao and Jiang Hongsheng suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

When Wen Tiantian saw her, she frowned.

Jiang yao's eyes swept across her and finally fell on Ji Jingchen.

"Teacher Ji, you are leaving?"

Ji Jingchen didn't treat her well.

"Anything else?"
