Chapter 288 Birthday Party
Chapter 288 Birthday Party
Ye Wanqing leaned on the soft sofa, looking at Lin Xuan who was walking from the door with a bit of curiosity. The corners of her mouth raised slightly with a hint of playful smile:
"Why are you back so early? I thought you wouldn't be home until at least tonight."
Lin Xuan changed his shoes and walked straight towards her. His face was a little tired, but his eyes were full of determination. "I had some urgent matters to deal with, so I came back early."
Ye Wanqing stood up, handed him a glass of warm water, and asked with concern: "Did this business trip go well? I see you look a little tired."
Lin Xuan took the cup, took a sip, then looked up at her, a complicated look flashing in his eyes: "It's going well, but..."
He hesitated to speak, and Ye Wanqing keenly noticed this, and a premonition surged in her heart: "What's wrong? Are you hiding something from me?"
Lin Xuan sighed, put down the cup, and slowly said: "I just came back from Ji Group, Ji Xinyu..."
Ye Wanqing frowned slightly when she heard this: "Ji Xinyu? What did she do again?"
Lin Xuan briefly recounted the whole story. After listening, Ye Wanqing's expression gradually turned cold. "How dare she tell Madam Lin about this? What on earth does she want to do?"
Lin Xuan looked at her, his eyes full of heartache: "She may want to use mother to stop us. But don't worry, mother is not so easily provoked."
Ye Wanqing sneered: "Of course I'm not worried about what Madam Lin will think of me. I just think Ji Xinyu is getting more and more excessive."
She paused and continued, "But how are you going to deal with this matter?"
Lin Xuan shook her hand and said, "I've already talked to Ji Xing'an, and he will give me an explanation. Also, I will let the Ji family know that they can't act so recklessly."
Ye Wanqing nodded, but she had her own plans in mind. She knew that Ji Xinyu dared to do this because he had the support of the Ji family.
If you want to solve this problem thoroughly, you must start from the root cause.
She changed the subject, not wanting Lin Xuan to see what she was thinking. "So, how was the outcome of your business trip? How did the cooperation negotiations go?"
Lin Xuan smiled when he heard this: "It went very smoothly. This cooperation is very important to our company. Also, I brought you a small gift."
As he spoke, he took out an exquisite little box from his pocket and handed it to Ye Wanqing.
Ye Wanqing opened it and saw a dazzling necklace with a sparkling diamond on it. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "Wow, so beautiful! Thank you, Lin Xuan."
Lin Xuan held her in his arms: "As long as you like it. By the way, how is your health recently? Have you taken your medicine on time?"
Ye Wanqing leaned on his chest, feeling the warmth and peace of mind. "I'm fine, don't worry. Besides, Madam Lin didn't come to see me either. Maybe Ji Xingan has already explained it to her."
Lin Xuan gently stroked her hair: "That's good. However, if your mother comes to find you, don't be afraid, she will understand you."
Ye Wanqing smiled slightly: "I know. Besides, I also believe in Madam Lin's character."
The two of them sat hugging each other, enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
However, Ye Wanqing had not completely let go of Ji Xinyu's matter. She knew that this was just the beginning, and if Ji Xinyu continued like this, she had to take some action to protect herself.
At this moment, Qin Zhuyu called. Ye Wanqing picked up the phone and heard Qin Zhuyu complaining on the other end of the phone: "Wanqing, do you know? Ji Xinyu is going to hold another birthday party and invited me. Do you think she did it on purpose?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanqing's eyes flashed, "Really? Where will her birthday party be held?"
Qin Zhuyu replied: "It's at the Yunkun Hotel. I heard it's a big event."
Ye Wanqing's lips curled up into a playful smile: "Yunkun Hotel? That's a great place. It seems that I have to prepare a good 'gift' for her."
Ye Wanqing opened her red lips slightly, her tone carrying a hint of amusement: "Of course I want to go and see what's so special about this so-called grand event."
Qin Zhuyu's eyes sparkled with excitement when she heard this. "I thought so too. Although I know it's just a party, since Ji Xinyu is making such a big fuss about it, how can we not join in the fun? What's more, with you here, what do I have to worry about?"
Ye Wanqing chuckled, her eyes flashing with confidence and composure: "Qin Zhuyu, you are always so good at talking."
When night fell, Ye Wanqing dressed up carefully, wearing an elegant white long dress with the hem swaying gently, like a fairy descending to earth, elegant and gentle.
Qin Zhuyu was wearing a bright red dress and looked passionate. The two of them standing together, each with their own merits, became a beautiful scenery at the party.
Lin Xuan learned that Ye Wanqing had decided to go. Although he was worried, he also understood her determination. He gently kissed her forehead and gently reminded her, "Wanqing, be careful. I will be there when the time is right."
Ye Wanqing nodded, her eyes full of determination: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
Qin Huai, upon learning that Ye Wanqing and Qin Zhuyu would both be in attendance, was secretly delighted, feeling that this would be a truly spectacular feast. He had specially selected a custom-made suit to highlight his status and position, and with anticipation and curiosity, he entered Ji Xinyu's birthday party.
The evening was filled with dazzling lights and melodious music, as celebrities from all walks of life gathered together in a bustling atmosphere. Dressed in a gorgeous custom-made gown, Ji Xinyu shone like a princess, a graceful smile on her face as she moved among the guests, enjoying the attention and compliments.
However, when her eyes fell on Ye Wanqing and Qin Zhuyu, her smile froze instantly. She had never expected that these two people she least wanted to see would appear here at the same time.
But she quickly regained her composure, stepped forward, and said in a seemingly friendly but in fact sharp tone, "Ms. Ye, Ms. Qin, it's truly an honor. I didn't expect you would do me the honor of coming."
Ye Wanqing smiled slightly, and that smile was filled with some profound meaning, as if she could see through everything: "Miss Ji invited us, how could we not come? After all, this is the first banquet Miss Ji has hosted since returning to China, so we naturally have to see it for ourselves."
Qin Zhuyu echoed, "Yes, Miss Ji is so kind, how can we let her down? What's more, we are also looking forward to seeing Miss Ji's wonderful performance tonight."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xinyu felt unwilling in her heart, but she could only forcefully maintain a smile on her face. She secretly vowed that she would make herself the most dazzling focus of the audience tonight, letting Ye Wanqing and Qin Zhuyu know that she, Ji Xinyu, was not someone they could easily shake.
