Chapter 1781: Don’t give people hope at all times

"You... know everything?"

Zhu Fengjing saw her slightly pale face and quickly explained:

"Beauty, don't get me wrong. I have never investigated your information. I know that you are the daughter of the Jian family or at the banquet where my sister-in-law inherited the Ning family."

Jian Ximan's expression paused, and his eyes suddenly became clear.

I see.

She almost forgot that he was there at that banquet too.

But she was very grateful, and he did not investigate her past.

This at least shows that his feelings for her are now purer than sympathy.

Seeing that she was obviously relieved, Zhu Fengjing felt more and more that the harm caused to her by the Jian family was even more serious than he had imagined, and his eyebrows were so slight and sank.

"You noticed them just now, why didn't you tell me? You agreed to me to discuss cooperation with them?"

Jian Ximan slowly let out a breath, took a small sip of wine, and the hot alcohol was swallowed, suppressing a lot of anger in his heart.

"My family and I have nothing to do with each other, so there is no need."

Whoever the Jian family wants to cooperate with or who they want to climb up has nothing to do with her.

She didn't want to be the one who was gossiping behind her back either.

If the Jian family knew that she was making trouble, it would be endless entanglement.

She was used to being purified and didn't want to have anything to do with those people anymore.

If she could, she wouldn't even want to see them in her life.

But the upper class is just a circle. She can quit quietly, but she is reluctant to let Xixi and An An go. As long as she is still their friends, she will still meet the Jian family.

The only thing she can do is turn a blind eye. As long as the Jian family doesn't come to find trouble on their own initiative, she can be at peace.

Compared with her calmness, Zhu Yanjing's mood was a little excited.

"Why doesn't this matter? Are you sure that they are really just talking about cooperation when they come to the Zhu family?"

The old fox Jian Hongyi said that he wanted to talk to him about cooperation, but asked him to chat with his daughter alone.

He has seen too many such tricks, and he can tell what his real purpose is without guessing.

Everyone else is going to be snatched away by other women. Did she not mind at all?

Jian Ximan raised his eyes with a faint expression, as he always faced him.

The clouds are calm and the wind is light, as if you care nothing.

"So I just reminded you to stay away from me today. Now I'm worried about it."

Zhu Lijing snorted and laughed.

"I'm afraid? I don't know how the word "门" is written! I want to see what tricks the Jian family can play with me!"

Jian Ximan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and there was a faint pleasure in her clear eyes.

Zhu Fengjing observed her expression secretly, carefully attached to her side, and asked with anticipation:

"Is it a beauty, you, jealous?"

Jian Ximan raised her eyes and met the man's expectant eyes. Her eyes flashed for a moment, and she shook her head without hesitation.

"Won't."

Zhu Wenjing's smile froze, and his handsome face instantly collapsed, drooping his shoulders, like an abandoned pet.

"You can't coax me? Even a lie is OK."

Even if he is shameless, he is still a human being, and he will be tired after being hit again and again.

I would occasionally want to hear her heartwarming words.

Even if it is just a lie, he can be resurrected in full blood.

But the woman in front of her was unwilling to even say a lie.

Sometimes he really has a moment of suspicion. Can he really warm up such a cold heart?

Seeing the tall man in front of her showing his fragile side for the first time, Jian Ximan said it was fake that he was not moved.

With her fingertips slightly moved, she wanted to reach out to rub his short hair, but was stopped by her reason at the moment the thought appeared.

She restrained the movement in her eyes and said in a faint tone:

"If I said yes, you will only be happier than you are now, but no matter how happy you are, lies make you feel, it doesn't make you feel."

Lies are lies after all.

Even if she said what he wanted to hear just to make him happy, then what?

If it cannot become a reality, it may accumulate into greater disappointment in the future.

Zhu Yanjing showed a bitter smile on his lips.

"You really don't give me hope at all times."

Because I know that the greater the hope you give you, the greater the final disappointment.

It’s better not to give you hope all the time. When you are tired, you might leave by yourself.

Or... If you can really stick to it, you may get unexpected good news.

Jian Ximan stared at the wine glass in his hand with his eyes half-hung, rubbing the wine glass one after another, and finally, the words in his heart were not said.

Zhu Wenjing, who was opposite, suddenly raised his head, tweaked the broken hair on his forehead, let out a heavy breath of depression, and returned to his smile.

"Forget it, although you don't give me hope, I still have to promise you that as long as you don't push me into someone else's arms, your man will never be snatched away by others."

Jian Ximan felt that her heart was hit hard by something, and the ice wrapped around her heart had cracks. A warm breath penetrated through the cracks and remained in her heart.

At this moment, she had to admit that she was moved by Zhu Fengjing's sincere love words.

Or maybe, she had actually been moved.

As he approached himself step by step and shortened the distance between them bit by bit, he gradually developed feelings for him.

But she didn't dare to take a step forward and didn't dare to give him any hope.

Just because she may not be able to give him the future he wants.

...

The hour hand of the clock is about to point to eight o'clock, and the engagement banquet is about to begin.

No one noticed a black shadow quietly walking to the large screen on the stage, sneaking and wondering what he was doing.

A moment later, the man in a black hat looked at the video files on the computer screen. The faint light hit the lower half of the man's face, and the slightly curled corners of his mouth looked particularly groggy.

At 8 o'clock, the engagement banquet begins on time.

Lu Deyu walked to the center of the stage with his slender legs calmly and rhythmically.

A valuable high-end suit sets off her long and tall figure, with a majestic temperament and a calm and restrained temperament.

The powerful aura surrounding him brought a strong momentum and shock. As soon as he appeared, the noise at the scene gradually lowered.

"Thank you all for coming to the dog's engagement banquet from thousands of miles away. I announced that the engagement ceremony will begin now."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the lights at the scene suddenly dimmed, and the large screen on the stage lit up.

The music slowly rang out, and the scene of Ning Yuxi squatting in the corner of the hospital wearing the dress from the engagement banquet a year ago appeared on the screen. Her hair was messy and her eyes were red, like a wounded little beast, squatting in the corner of the wall licking her wounds.
