C105 Annual Session
Jin Yanchen arrived in front of the wardrobe, and casually chose a nightgown to change into. Afterwards, he went to Ruan Xihan's room, lifted up the quilt, and slipped into it. He then put his arm around her waist, his broad shoulders pressing against her warm body as he felt her breath.
Perhaps it was because she felt Jin Yanchen's familiar aura, she rubbed against his chest, found a comfortable place and fell into a deep sleep.
Jin Yan Chen's lips curled up into a smile. He kissed her forehead, and then he closed his eyes in satisfaction, falling into a deep sleep as he embraced her.
"..."
Time flew and in the blink of an eye, it was the annual meeting of Hua Biao.
Ruan Xihan and the company spent half a month planning the banquet.
At the start, the arrangements for the banquet, the list of invitations, and so on were all handled by Ruan Xi Han alone, but seeing that she was too tired and could not agree to anything, Jin Yan Chen privately convened a meeting and sent more people to assist her.
Compared to the release of the new product in September, Ruan Xihan was much more dexterous.
In a short span of five years, with its unique leadership style and design works, the Huashang Group has become the largest group in Luocheng.
Therefore, for the annual Clan Assembly of Hua Biao, the people invited to a banquet was a well-known clan in the entire Luo City. In other words, those who appeared at the Clan Assembly of Hua Biao represented a certain status.
The banquet proceeded in an orderly manner. Ruan Xihan, as Jin Yanchen's companion, had left the backstage in advance, leaving all matters for the other staff to handle.
The banquet started at seven o'clock. Those who wanted to cooperate with Hua Biao had already arrived at the venue.
Eight o'clock, Ruan Xihan held Jin Yanchen's arm and threaded the line at the entrance of the venue. Outside the venue were the major media outlets. The lights were flickering, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
Jin Yanchen could feel her discomfort, and without any hesitation, he went straight to the banquet site.
Because he didn't want to add to Ruan Xihan's troubles, Jin Yanchen didn't invite Ruan Sisi for the annual meeting of Hua Biao.
The moment the two of them entered the stage, no one made a sound as they looked at them.
Ruan Xihan wore a gorgeous black dress with a veil on the hem that revealed her beautiful figure. Her ink-like long hair fluttered in the wind, and a few strands flew in front of her casually yet seductively.
There was a purple crystal on his neck that was emitting a faint light, causing his skin to become as white as snow, as if a celestial had descended into the mortal world. "She smiled sweetly as she bewitched Cai, a faint black pearl bracelet resting on her wrist, accentuating the luster of her skin.
There was a trace of alienation in her eyes, giving off a feeling of unreachable hope. That smile was like a plum flower unafraid of chilliness.
Beside her, Jin Yanchen had a faint smile on his lips. His black Anima suit accentuated his handsome face, making him look even more handsome and charming. His slightly squinting eyes carried a trace of arrogance.
Their hands intertwined. From afar, they looked like a perfect couple, a match made in heaven.
In an instant, discussions arose everywhere, but not a single one of them wasn't talking about them.
When Ruan Sisi, who was following behind him with her group of friends, saw Ruan Xihan's brilliance, her exquisite face immediately turned purple. Her vicious gaze, which seemed to have been poisoned, shot towards Ruan Xihan one after the other.
"Sisi, do you know that woman? Why haven't I seen it before? "
A woman dressed flirtatiously beside Ruan Sisi asked coquettishly. There was a trace of disdain on her thick makeup.
Her name was Qu Wanru, the young miss of the Qu Family in Luo City. She was extremely savage and condescending, and she had always been very fond of Si Jingchen. However, the latter did not take her seriously.
"She's my elder sister who caused the scandal — — Ruan Xihan."
Ruan Si bit her lips and said fiercely.
"Oh, no wonder you look that way."
Qu Wan Ru said with a sneer, her eyebrows slightly raised, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
Ruan Sisi's gaze was always on Ruan Xihan. Her resentful gaze was like a knife as it shot towards Ruan Xihan.
Ruan Xihan followed beside Jin Yanchen, and the two of them walked together as they greeted everyone present.
The brighter Ruan Xihan's smile was, the gloomier was Ruan Sisi's face.
"Come, I'll take you to meet her."
Qu Wanru was a person who did not mind the commotion, but a smile that was not a smile appeared on her pretty face. She held onto Ruan Si's hand and said coldly.
Ruan Si had this thought in mind. She glanced at the arrogant Qu Wan Ru, and a plan formed in her heart.
"Alright."
With that, Ruan Si followed Qu Wan Ru and headed towards the venue.
Qu Wanru handed the invitation to the staff at the door and nodded with a smile. Then, she pulled Ruan Si in.
"Miss, where is your invitation card?"
The staff member pulled Ruan Si Si and asked in a low voice.
Ruan Si was wearing a spotlessly white evening dress with long chestnut hair. When she heard what the staff said, she immediately felt guilty. Embarrassment appeared on her exquisite face. She then pretended to look for it and groped her body.
After a long while, she finally spoke with a trace of disdain in her eyes, "I seem to have lost it."
After saying that, Ruan Si was about to enter, but was stopped by a staff member, "Excuse me, young lady. You are not allowed to enter without an invitation."
"It's not that I don't have an invitation card, but I might have dropped it somewhere. Why aren't you letting me in?"
Ruan Sisi's face became even gloomier. At this moment, many people noticed the abnormality and looked over.
"I'm sorry, miss. This is our company's rule."
The staff remained committed to their duties.
"Rules are dead, people are alive. I'm the young miss of the Ruan Family, the invitation card just dropped. Is there a need to stop me?"
Ruan Si said with a cold voice, her exquisite face had a trace of malevolence.
This time, she had come prepared. No matter what, she had to go in so that the following matter could be easily carried out.
"I'm sorry, Miss. We only acknowledge invitations, not people."
The staff member said solemnly.
Ruan Si became even more angry, as if she wanted to force her way in.
Not too far away, Ruan Xihan, Jin Yanchen, and the other guests were chatting and laughing. Seeing that there were quarreling sounds coming from over here, Ruan Xihan whispered to him, "Something seems to have happened over there. I'll go over and take a look."
Jin Yan Chen's black eyes swept across the entrance of the banquet, and then he gently nodded his head.
Ruan Xihan quickly walked to the door. When she saw Ruan Si, her eyes immediately darkened.
"What's going on?"
The clear voice was ice-cold without a trace of warmth. It swept over Ruan Si's face with a sharp gaze, along with a bit of hatred.
"Manager Ruan, this young lady said that she lost her invitation card and insisted on coming in."
The staff members reported the situation truthfully.
Ruan Si's face was extremely ugly. The number of people watching gradually increased as they all smiled at them.
