C17 I Can't Help It

Inadvertently, he saw a shiny object lying at the door. He lowered his head and picked it up. The tip of his finger was slightly cool, and there was an exquisite ring that seemed a little familiar.

"Let us witness and share the happiness of this pair of newbies together..." The host's voice rang out once again in the venue. Chi Yichen did not hesitate any longer and walked into the restroom. Inside was endless darkness. Chi Yichen's black eyes emitted a biting cold light. He was like a wolf lying in ambush at night.

He reached his hand out to the light button of the bathroom along the wall and turned it on. The sudden strong light made him subconsciously close his eyes. He adapted to it for a while before he continued to walk inside.

The doors were pushed open one by one, but they were all empty. Jian Xi was nowhere to be seen.

His gaze fell on the room closest to the bathroom. His black eyes immediately darkened. Between them, there was a trailer placed on the door. The door was locked from the outside. Clearly, someone had done it on purpose.

And who was this person? Chi Yichen naturally knew who this person was. A wave of anger was raging in his chest. Who else would dare to do such a thing at the engagement scene of the Chi family other than her?

Chi Yichen was flustered and exasperated. He swore to himself that he would never let this person who committed such atrocities get away with it!

After being stunned for a while, Chi Yichen took the trailer away. When he saw the scene inside, he couldn't help but laugh.

The little girl in the light purple dress crouched in the corner of the toilet with her legs bent. Her red face was moist, and her eyes were closed. The corner of her lips curled up slightly, as if she was having a good dream.

Wait, what was the crystal clear thing that flowed out of her lips?

This woman is really stupid and cute.

Jian Xi did not realize that she had already drooled a lot and was playing chess with Duke Zhou contentedly. Her furry little head was pressed against her knees and her long eyelashes were like the wings of a swan. It made people want to reach out and touch her. Her hair, which was as thick as seaweed, was hanging down from the delicate butterfly bone to her waist. His pink and smooth lips slightly opened, like a little demon in a dense forest. She was cute and beautiful.

Chi Yichen stared blankly, unable to move his gaze away. It seemed like this woman was not too ugly either.

His chest rose and fell, like the grass in the beginning of spring gently moving. It was numb and numb. He could not help but reach out and touch Ai Xi's pink face.

Suddenly, Jian Xi seemed to have felt his rough fingers and abdomen. She frowned unhappily, and her small claws pulled on the wall as if she wanted to stand up.

Chi Yichen panicked. He thought that he had woken up this little girl and quickly took back his hand. Even he did not realize how much he cared about the girl in front of him.

The girl only moved her body to the other side and found a more comfortable position to sleep again.

He had no idea that someone was overwhelmed by her tiny movements.

Chi Yichen could not help but raise the corner of his mouth. Looking at the girl's curled up body like a shrimp, his heart could not help but hurt.

Jian Xi had been locked in the washroom for such a long time, facing this endless darkness. And the turbid air, would a little girl like her panic? Was she very helpless? Was it because her eyes were filled with tears, but she stubbornly refused to shed them? Did she hope that someone could bring her away from this gloomy darkness?

"You're here?" Jian Xi suddenly opened her sleepy eyes, but her tone seemed to be waiting for him.

Chi Yichen looked at her with a cryptic look. He suddenly bent over and picked up the small shrimp-like body.

Jian Xi was shocked by his unexpected actions and screamed, "Bastard, what are you doing? Quickly let go!"

Jian Xi waved her small claws and twisted hard. My God? She had just opened her eyes and her head was still dizzy. What kind of rhythm was this when she was inexplicably picked up by a man?

Chi Yichen ignored her struggle, but his eyebrows that were as black as ink were deeply attached to each other. This woman's voice was like countless flies buzzing in his ears. It was not as gentle as when he was sleeping just now.

Jian Xi saw his unhappy expression and the little flame in her eyes burned. This bastard took advantage of her and his eyes were full of disgust. What did he mean?

"Chi Yichen..." Jian Xi called his name but in the next second, he was silent like cicadas in winter. The tip of his ear was silently dyed with a few red clouds. The smell of ancient dragon water mixed with the faint smell of tobacco seeped into the tip of his nose. Raising his eyes, what entered his eyes was the man's beautiful side face.

And where her head was leaning against, her wide and undulating chest... Separated by a thin shirt, the man's steady and powerful heartbeat clearly reverberated in her ears. Jian Xi's heart suddenly became chaotic, like a pool of lake water rippling with circles of ripples.

"What is it?" Hearing this, the man cast a sidelong glance at her. There was a trace of playfulness on his red lips. The woman's soft body was pressing against his body. That warm touch and that faint fragrance made him unable to help but feel intoxicated.

A tinge of drunkenness rose in his eagle eyes. Damn it, he actually had a reaction to this woman. This was not a good sign.

Feeling the boiling heat coming from the man's body, Jian Xi's face turned red like a burning cloud.

"That, you, why are you here?" Jian Xi's voice was as low as a mosquito's and could not be heard, but Chi Yichen heard it clearly and suddenly stopped.

Lowering her head, the cold light in her eyes made Jian Xi's heart tremble.

"Jian Xi, saying that you have no brains is really flattering you. Being played like this, you are quite enjoying it, right?" Every word that Chi Yichen said was precious. He really did not understand. Is this woman's IQ negative? "

" Even an outsider like him could see that her so-called sister did not have any good intentions, but Jian Xi had to swallow her anger time and time again. Was her brain kicked by a donkey?

" Chi Yichen! " Jian Xi's gratitude for Chi Yichen saving her in the toilet was instantly swept away.

He said she had no brains? His whole family had no brain!

Jian Xi's cheeks were fuming. She clenched her fist and mercilessly punched the man. "Let go of me! I can walk by myself!"

"Be quiet!"

Chi Yichen shouted fiercely. He completely ignored Jian Xi's struggle and walked towards the center of the venue.

Where did this man go? F * ck, didn't you see so many people? If you want to be shameless, don't ruin her reputation if he is shameless!

Jian Xi complained incessantly, but the man's strength was too great and she could not break free no matter what.

Sure enough, when the two appeared, everyone's eyes fell on the entrance of the venue and an uproar broke out.

In front of a large crowd, Chi Yichen held Jian Xi, who had a conflicted and gloomy expression, and slowly walked into the venue of Chi Tianyou and Jian Jia's engagement with his long legs.

For a moment, everyone was whispering to each other and whispering. Jian Jia, who was in the middle of the stage, was clearly stunned. Her lips, which were full of smiles, were frozen before she could retract them.

What was going on? At this time, shouldn't Jian Xi be locked in the washroom?

Chi Tianyou, who was beside her, did not look any better. The jealousy was rolling in his heart. He gritted his teeth and was about to walk towards the two of them, but he was quickly stopped by Jian Jia.

Jian Xi indifferently looked at Jian Jia, who was dressed in bright clothes and had a halo around her body. Her fingertips were filled with a clear chill.

As for the tall and burly man who was like a king, he carried the delicate and lovely person in his arms and walked steadily step by step. He seemed to have turned a blind eye to the gazes from the outside world as his cold and stern lips drew a melodious arc. His brows were like ink, his eyes were like stars, and he was tainted by the coldness of the moon. She knew that she would walk over to the established VIP seats and put Jian Xi down.

He raised his delicate chin and looked down at everyone from above. He said in a voice that did not carry a trace of warmth, "Isn't it the engagement banquet? What, is it over?"

Every word paused, shocking everyone.

After all, this host was invited by the Chi family. He had been in charge of the industry for many years, so he was not surprised by this kind of awkward situation.

"Next, our Miss Jian will give a speech today. Everyone, give a warm applause."

A wave of applause that could topple mountains and overturn seas sounded. In an instant, the atmosphere of the scene was stirred up again.

Facing the burning gazes of the crowd, Jian Jia on the stage smiled somewhat unnaturally. The dazzling light shone on her pure white dress and there was a Shiwalo crystal necklace on her exquisite neck. And the ring finger that she was holding on to the microphone was clearly missing something.

Her eyes swept across everyone present. Suddenly, her rose red lips bloomed with a bright smile, opening and closing.

"First of all, thank you all for attending the engagement banquet between Tianyou and me. Also, thank you all for your blessings..."

Jian Jia's voice was clear and cold, as if there was a trace of hidden pride in it. She paused for a moment and said, "Actually, it was all thanks to one person that Tianyou and I were able to come this far."

When Jian Xi heard this, her shoulders suddenly trembled.

Stiffly raising her eyes, she saw Jian Jia walking over gracefully.

Everyone was confused and did not understand the situation. Chi Tianyou quickly followed and grabbed Jian Jia's arm, but she coldly pushed it away.

Chi Yichen crossed his arms in front of his chest. His eyes were covered with a layer of grey fog, but he was as sharp as a hawk, staring at the two of them calmly.

"Sister..." Jian Jia called out to her gently, but the ridicule on her face could not be hidden, no matter how thick the powder was.

"It's all thanks to you that I had the chance to know Tianyou. That's why I had the chance to be with him until today."

Jian Jia's words were like countless sharp thorns that pierced straight into Jian Xi's heart. It was densely packed with pain.

Jian Jia had trained to the point of perfection when it came to hitting the nail on the head.

Jian Xi was stunned as she looked at her. After a while, she came back to her senses and saw her hand a cup of scarlet liquid in front of her. The bright color was like a dying flower and it shook her eyes.

"You are too polite."

Suppressing the grief and indignation in her heart, she slowly raised her hand and was about to take the cup of wine. Who knew that before she could touch it, Jian Jia raised her hand and that glass of red wine was caught off guard and poured all over Jian Xi's body.

The wine dripped down along the ends of her hair like a blooming rose. She bit her lips and her face was so pale that it was almost transparent. The chill that came from her body made her unable to stop trembling but it was far from comparable to the bone-piercing coldness in her chest.

The exclamations entered her ears one after another.

"Aiya, I'm sorry, Sis. I didn't do it on purpose." Jian Jia pretended to be apologetic, but how could she not see the trace of ridicule in her eyes? Did she really think that she was a fool when she was being targeted in the open and in the dark?

She took out a tissue and was about to wipe Jian Xi's face but was hit down by Jian Xi without any hesitation. Jian Jia was stunned as she did not expect that her elder sister, who had always pampered her, would actually be angry.

Beside her, Chi Yichen's eyes were as dark as the night. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that the girl's hand that was tightly pulling on her sleeve seemed to be enduring to the extreme.

He took a step forward and pulled the girl who was covered in alcohol behind him.

At this moment, the air seemed to have frozen. Everyone widened their eyes and raised their heads to look at the scene in front of them. Chi Yichen's dark eyes were burning with anger, making people even more careful to breathe.

"What's going on?" An ancient and hoarse voice suddenly sounded. The crowd immediately made way for them. With Chi Qinghai's help, Old Man Chi tremblingly walked over. His dark and deep eyes narrowed into a line. With just a glance, he could tell what was going on.

"What exactly is going on? Tianyou?" Old Man Chi's voice was calm and majestic. Chi Tianyou was stunned for a moment. He only reacted after a long while and stammered, What? " Uh... Grandpa... No... Nothing, Jia Jia accidentally poured the wine on the table... Aunt Ye."

His ex-girlfriend had become Aunt Ye. No matter what, Chi Tianyou could not swallow this anger. As soon as he finished speaking, his two eyes stared at Chi Yichen.

" Fourth Aunt? "Old Man Chi's eyebrows jumped, and his face darkened.

Chi Yichen was now more than 28 years old. He should marry and have children, but whenever he mentioned marriage, he would coldly avoid it. Where did this "fourth aunt" come from?

Seeing Old Man Chi's gaze sweep over her, Jian Xi felt guilty and could not lower her head any more.

Chi Yichen's eyes were indifferent, and he had a calm and composed expression.

"Yichen, explain to me what this" fourth aunt "is about."
