The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 637 - 635: How did you two end up together?

His tone carried a hint of bitterness, Lu Beichen replied, "I’m not blaming you! Rather, I’m afraid that one day you’ll blame me, so I want you to know it’s not that I don’t want to."

"I don’t understand what you mean." Little Bun’s face grew increasingly confused.

"Someday you’ll understand." Lu Beichen stroked his head, "Hurry and sleep, I’ll wait for you to fall asleep before I go shower."

"Will you stay with me all the time?"

"Of course."

Lu Sinian then burrowed into the covers, snuggling closer to Lu Beichen, and closed his eyes.

Chairman Tong’s birthday banquet draws quite a crowd every year, but to avoid extravagance, it’s kept relatively simple, held in a hotel each year.

Ji Niandong had just finished breakfast when a servant approached to style her hair and prepare a gown. Although she remained melancholic these days, her figure had grown thinner, but with nutritionist’s care, she didn’t appear as lifeless as when she first arrived.

Once dressed, she gently descended the stairs, in a snow-white gown complementing her translucent skin, making her look even more beautiful, her hair casually draped over her shoulders, with a touch of makeup giving her a celestial aura.

Even with a cold demeanor, it couldn’t dim her captivating presence.

Tong Ji Yuan curved his lips, "No wonder Beichen likes you, you’re quite ethereal."

Ji Niandong glanced at him, "If Tong Ji Yang calls Gu Xiyao cousin, then Gu Xiyao is your cousin too."

"You know her?" Tong Ji Yuan slightly raised his brow.

"Speaking of being ethereal, shouldn’t that be your cousin Miss Gu?" Ji Niandong’s tone turned increasingly cold.

Tong Ji Yuan seemed intrigued by her words, stared at her for a few moments, "Taking a closer look, you and Xi Yao indeed resemble each other, don’t you think?"

"Yes! That’s what everyone says, if not for that, Lu Beichen wouldn’t have married me!" Ji Niandong finished speaking, lifted her skirt and walked out.

Tong Ji Yuan stood in place and chuckled twice, then waved his hand, "It’s cold outside, have Miss Ji wear a coat."

The servant immediately obeyed, Tong Ji Yuan’s smile grew wider, heard that Xi Yao’s girl had returned too, unsure if she’d attend the banquet today.

Now, things would get even more interesting!

Ji Niandong, since getting in the car, tightly clutched her bag thinking, how should she face Lu Beichen if she sees him later? Directly ask for the divorce papers, or just pretend not to see him?

If Lu Beichen doesn’t let her go, pretending not to see is impossible, but with things as they are, what’s the point in not letting her be?

She continued thinking about this until the car drove into the YT International Hotel.

Due to the Chairman’s birthday, the hotel had been entirely sealed off, no one allowed inside without an invitation.

Tong Ji Yang, as the Crown Prince, was early at the scene to welcome guests; the old man’s birthday couldn’t be taken lightly.

Previously hanging around the entertainment industry, ignoring political matters, now appearing here, courteous and poised, was all part of the preparation for his return, naturally the attendees were polite, subtlety observing the Crown Prince.

Tong Ji Yang greeted each guest, his demeanor relaxed and grand!

Until he saw Ji Niandong clinging to Tong Ji Yuan’s arm approaching, his brow furrowed in displeasure, striding over to them, "How did you two end up together?"

"Ji Yang, there are so many people here, don’t lose your demeanor." Tong Ji Yuan smiled, very imposing.

Tong Ji Yuan was blocked by his words, immediately became more serious, but his lips curled into a subtle smile, "You two go ahead inside!"
