The huge banquet hall was surrounded by various desserts and fine wines, and the crystal lantern in the center of the hall shone like glass.

When An Yueze and Ling Fei'er slowly walked into everyone's sight from the front steps amidst the expectations and blessings of the crowd, rose petals suddenly sprayed out from the flower stands on both sides of the red carpet.

"Thank you all, thank you for coming to our engagement banquet~" Ling Fei'er is like a happy and proud princess. She is always young and beautiful, and the fiery red tube top dress makes her as beautiful as a peony in full bloom.

An Yueze held hands with her and walked slowly into the crowd in the rain of flowers.

Over there, Ling Fei'er's father, Director Ling of the Public Security Bureau, was delivering a congratulatory message, and the leaders of the Procuratorate were standing on both sides with smiles in their eyes.

Ji Xinyao stood at the end of the crowd and looked at the man and woman walking in the rain of flowers.

Her heart no longer hurts for this person, but this situation will inevitably make her sigh. When she was in college, she thought that she would never marry anyone other than An Yueze in her life. She thought that her love would not be like that.

Those TV dramas and novels had such ups and downs that everything would start well and end well, but I never thought that the pure feelings that I once had could not withstand the ravages of time, and were actually so fragile and vulnerable.

It’s just that she doesn’t understand, where did she go wrong? Why is she the loser in this love?

While they were in trance, they had already stepped on the red carpet from the steps in front to the end of the red carpet with the blessings of everyone.

"Let's just have fun. The engagement party is a ceremony, not as formal as a wedding ceremony. Today, let's treat it as a large party thrown by the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate for everyone. You can make whatever noise you want~" The director of the Procuratorate over there was whispering to Director Ling.

After smiling and saying a few words, he picked up the phone and greeted everyone.

The sounds of laughter and cheers continued, and Ji Xinyao felt her head getting more and more dizzy. Her eyes briefly focused on the people sitting at the VIP table, but she did not see Gu Nancy. She lowered her eyes and looked at the greedy cat Su.

At Xiao Nuan's suggestion, we went to the other side to eat cake with her.

"Sister Ji, it's so sweet, take a bite~" Su Xiaonuan put a piece of cream cake in her mouth on a disposable paper plate, and then handed it to her to take a bite with her eyes full of happiness. 13acv.

Ji Xinyao smiled faintly, did not take it, and leaned weakly on the tall flower stand next to her, waiting patiently for the banquet to end.

"Miss Ji, I'm here to respect you~" Suddenly, Ling Fei'er's voice came over.

When she turned around, she saw that the goblet in Ling Feier's hand was full of champagne. She crossed her other hand across her chest and put her hand on her arm. She looked at her with a smile, and the pride in her eyes was still obvious.

The banquet was all over the place. Su Xiaonuan suddenly put down the cake and was about to walk over to block Ji Xinyao behind her. However, Ji Xinyao gently pushed Su Xiaonuan away, looking at Ling Fei lightly.

With the provocative smile in his eyes, he picked up the goblet beside him, glanced at the red wine in the glass, and then smiled slightly: "Miss Ling, you're welcome. I'll drink this wine. I wish you happiness."

After that, he drank it in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, Ji Xinyao didn't have any sad and downcast expression. Ling Feier secretly frowned, then snorted, took a sip of the champagne in the glass, and said with a sweet smile: "Of course, of course we will be happy!

"

"Oh, why is this little girl accompanying you again? Ji Xinyao, does your husband not exist? Why haven't you seen him appear with you?"

"Ah, isn't it a good idea for me to talk like this? Tsk tsk, but there's nothing I can do about it, I just like to tell the truth~"

Ji Xinyao smiled silently as if she was disapproving. Her calm and generous expression made Ling Fei'er feel a little uncomfortable. When she turned around and saw An Yueze drinking with several colleagues from the procuratorate, she said, "Don't be polite.

You can eat and drink as you please, I’m going to find my fiancé~”

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards An Yueze.

"Look at how successful she is, like a pheasant that has won a fight~" Su Xiaonuan muttered next to her.

Ji Xinyao looked at Ling Fei'er's walking away, still expressionless. She turned around for a moment and leaned her still weak body aside. She saw a few glasses of untouched red wine on the table at hand, so she simply took them

Get up and drink it all in one gulp.

"Sister Ji... you have a fever, so you can't drink! That woman was just here, so you could have just one drink. Why are you still drinking now?" Su Xiaonuan quickly raised her hand to take the goblet in her hand.

Take it over.

Ji Xinyao raised her eyes, looked at the joy in the crowd, and said softly: "Xiao Nuan, you are wrong. Drink some wine when you have a fever, so that you can sleep soundly when you go back. Otherwise, you will have a splitting headache and you will not be able to sleep at all."

"But……"

Before Su Xiaonuan finished speaking, he looked at her and picked up another glass. This time she didn't drink it all in one go, but sipped it slowly.

About ten minutes later, the banquet hall was bustling with activity. Ji Xinyao put down the goblet in her hand. Unexpectedly, the alcohol content of these red wines was not low and the stamina was so strong. At this moment, her legs were a little shaky, and her mind was filled with excitement.

The dizziness turned into a feeling of lightheadedness for no apparent reason.

The bright colored glass in front of her eyes almost dazzled her eyes, otherwise how could she seem to have seen Gu Nanxi...

On the spot, she let out a long breath and looked through the crowd with her intoxicated eyes, looking at the outstanding figure at the other end of the crowd. She was dressed in a black suit with exquisite tailoring, showing nobility and elegance in her grace.

He can attract the attention of many women, with a polite and calm smile between his bright brows.

When did he come?

Ji Xinyao rubbed her forehead, looked at Gu Nanxi who didn't seem to notice her over there, and hurriedly pulled Su Xiaonuan's hand: "Xiao Nuan, let's go."

"Let's go? Sister Ji, didn't you say that you must persist until the end today?" Su Xiaonuan asked vaguely before swallowing the cake in her mouth.

"Let's go." Ji Xinyao didn't explain, just grabbed her hand and started to leave.

But just as she took a step, her vision suddenly went dark, and she almost fell to the ground. Su Xiaonuan caught her in time, looking at the paleness on her face that could no longer be covered by foundation: "

Sister Ji, how are you?"

"It's okay." Ji Xinyao raised her hand, put it on her forehead and pressed it, gently shaking her head: "I'm okay..."

"You're so hot, Sister Ji!"

"I'm fine, really... I'm fine." She pressed her forehead, the dizziness in her head was so severe that she felt everything in front of her was dazzled: "Wait for me here for a while, I'll wash my face with cold water.

.”

"I'll go with you!"

"No, it's okay."

Su Xiaonuan took her handbag and looked helplessly at Ji Xinyao's back and her vain steps, the worry in her eyes getting deeper and deeper.

Compared with the bustle in the banquet hall, the restroom was quiet. Ji Xinyao reluctantly found the direction of the women's restroom and walked in, but she almost fell. She stabilized her body, walked to the washstand, and raised her eyes.

Seeing herself in the mirror, her face was horribly gray, so she had no choice but to pat her face with cold water, then lay down next to the sink and take a few deep breaths, trying to wake up. She didn't know whether it was because of drinking or because of a fever.

The reason is that I just feel like the whole world is spinning.

After the water on his face dried, he turned around and walked out. As soon as he reached the door of the bathroom, a familiar figure walked out of the door of the men's bathroom opposite.

When she saw An Yueze, she paused, turned around with an expressionless expression, and walked away quickly.

As soon as he took a step, his arm was suddenly grabbed by someone: "What's wrong with you?"

Her steps froze, and she tried hard to throw away his hand: "Let go!"

"Why do you look so bad?" An Yueze obviously drank a lot of wine, so he grabbed her arm and turned her around.

Ji Xinyao's steps were unsteady, she stumbled to resist her body from hitting his arms, and subconsciously leaned back, leaning directly against the marble wall outside the bathroom. The cold wall behind her made her mind clear.

After a while, he was unable to move him away.

An Yueze raised his hand to touch her forehead, but she immediately turned her head away and his hand was empty.

He frowned, and his eyes were slightly red from the alcohol. He was obviously angered by her decisive resistance, and he directly held her chin with one hand and turned her face to face him: "Ji Xinyao!

Can you please stop doing this?"

She looked at the man with a frown in front of her expressionlessly, trying to break free, but she couldn't muster any strength, so she could only gasp and say in a hoarse voice: "Get your dirty hands off!"

"Don't you miss me? I have delayed this engagement party for five whole weeks. I want to win you back. I have always wanted to win you back! It was you who pushed me to the edge! Ji Xinyao, why can't you, a woman, lower your head?

Come and understand my difficulties? For whom am I working so hard and wanting to be successful? Isn’t it just to become a full-time employee as soon as possible so that you can live a good life?!"

Ji Xinyao felt her eyes go dark for a while, and she had no energy to say anything to him. She wanted to turn her head away in discomfort, and weakly whispered: "We are over...please let go..."

"You!" An Yueze gritted his teeth, suddenly squeezed her chin tightly, took a small step forward to imprison her between his body and the wall, and bowed his head to kiss her.

"An Yueze! Get away!" Ji Xinyao suddenly gathered her only strength to push him away, but was unable to move him at all. Her legs went weak, and she was helpless and could only let him hold her down.

At the moment when Ji Xinyao was desperate and unable to resist, a clear and cold voice suddenly came from her ears: "Let her go."

An Yueze was almost about to kiss her, but he froze when he heard the voice. In a blink of an eye, he saw a tall figure appearing at the end of the quiet corridor, walking slowly.

The cold and frightened An Yueze in Gu Nanxi's eyes seemed to have lost a lot of alcohol in an instant. She suddenly turned her eyes and looked at the woman who was leaning weakly against the wall. Her hands trembled and she gently let go of her pinched red lips.

He lowered his chin and turned to look at Nancy Gu, who was walking over: "Sorry, I drank too much and mistakenly thought...she was Fei'er..."

Gu Nanxi's eyes were reserved and she glanced at An Yueze lightly. For a moment, her eyes fell on the face of Ji Xinyao who was leaning against the wall.

Ji Xinyao just wanted to sneer when she heard An Yueze's words, but she didn't even have the strength to laugh. She put one hand on the wall behind her and the other hand firmly grasped the edges of the bathroom door frame to support her body and not fall down.

An Yueze walked away quickly. He only paused slightly when he passed by Gu Nanxi, and then walked away quickly.

Seeing An Yueze leaving, Ji Xinyao breathed a sigh of relief, let go of her hand on the wall behind her, turned around and left.

As soon as her body left the wall, her feet suddenly softened. A strong arm suddenly grabbed her body that almost fell to the ground and pressed her into his arms. Ji Xinyao felt dizzy for a while and stabilized the thoughts in her mind.

He raised his hand to push him away.

The raised hand was held by him, and he pressed it down easily. For a moment, his warm palm, which was much lower than the temperature of her body, was placed on her forehead. Gu Nanxi suddenly raised her eyebrows slightly: "Why did it burn like this?"

?”

"Don't touch me..." She whispered, trying to resist, but her waist was firmly held in his arms.

"Don't move." His voice was no longer so gentle, as if he was a little angry. He put his arm around her waist, feeling that the temperature of her body was amazingly hot, and she was trembling faintly. With a soft sigh, he took off her clothes.

The suit covered her body: "You are still drinking when you are so sick. When did you become so willful?"
