Ji Yan said it was for Shen Hanxing, but his large palm gripped the invitation’s edge tightly as if he wanted to tear it into pieces. Obviously, he did not want to show it to Shen Hanxing.
Seeing Ji Yan’s words did not mean what he said and that he looked a little childish, Shen Hanxing felt that it was both cute and a little funny. Ji Yan’s face was handsome, and a threatening air of n.o.bility about him quickly gave people a sense of oppression. Such a person should be high and mighty like a G.o.d, but Shen Hanxing felt that he was incomparably cute. She could not help but stretch out her finger and lightly poke Ji Yan’s cheek. The lines on his face were sharp, and there was not much soft flesh on his face. It was not bouncy enough to poke.
Ji Yan looked at Shen Hanxing. His thick eyelashes lightly fluttered twice, and he felt wronged. Shen Hanxing cleared her throat guiltily and changed the topic, “Who sent this invitation? What is it for?”
Seeing Shen Hanxing didn’t care and didn’t seem to want to take it, the coldness on Ji Yan’s body dissipated a little. He concisely said, “The Lu family invites you to the engagement party.”
“Engagement party? Lu Feng’s actions were so fast,” Shen Hanxing’s eyes lit up slightly as she thought. Then she asked, “Is it Lu Shaoyang and Su Ling’s?”
!!
“You want to go?” Ji Yan furrowed slightly. He paused for a moment, but in the end, he still chose to follow his heart. He pulled Shen Hanxing into his arms and rubbed his chin lightly against her hair. After Shen Hanxing came to the Ji family, he investigated all her affairs. However, Ji Yan did not look at it until some time ago when the Shen family’s affairs had happened. He then flipped through it. Naturally, he also saw that Shen Hanxing and Lu Shaoyang had been engaged before, including the things that had occurred between them.
Although he knew Shen Hanxing had not paid attention to Lu Shaoyang since their marriage, Ji Yan still felt subtle jealousy when he looked at this gilded invitation. He had never partic.i.p.ated in her past life, but that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lu Shaoyang knew all of Shen Hanxing’s life experiences and even appeared in her life.
Intense jealousy and dark emotions stabbed Ji Yan’s heart. Before Shen Hanxing returned, only the intention of destroying Lu Shaoyang filled him.
“Mr. Ji, don’t you want me to go?” Shen Hanxing wrapped her arms around Ji Yan’s skinny waist and leaned into his arms. She said softly, “but I want to go and take a look.”
“She wants to go?” Ji Yan suddenly tightened his arms and hugged Shen Hanxing as he thought. His eyes were bloodshot. “why does she want to go? Does she still have some feelings for Lu Shaoyang? What does she want to do? Does she want to disrupt the engagement party or watch Lu Shaoyang get engaged to another woman?”
“Mr. Ji, you’re hurting me,” Sensing Ji Yan had lost control, Shen Hanxing gently patted his back and said, “hug me gentler.”
Ji Yan suddenly straightened his body as if he had been electrocuted. “I…” He opened his mouth and suddenly realized that his voice was hoa.r.s.e. His palm was placed on Shen Hanxing’s waist, wanting to touch it but not daring to.
“I know you didn’t do it on purpose,” Shen Hanxing didn’t retreat but moved forward instead. She hugged Ji Yan tightly and rubbed her cheek against his chest. She whispered, “actually, it doesn’t hurt that much.”
Shen Hanxing could easily control Ji Yan’s emotions.
Ji Yan sighed silently and rested his chin on Shen Hanxing’s head. He lowered his head and took a whiff of the fragrance of Shen Hanxing’s hair. Feeling wronged, he said, “This invitation-only invites you.”
“What does it mean to send the invitation to Shen Hanxing but not invite me? If the Lu family wanted to use this opportunity to interact with the JI Corporation, they should have invited me, the person in charge of the Ji Corporation. However, this invitation card only invited Shen Hanxing. This meant that this invitation card was not sent in the name of the Lu Corporation. Lu Shaoyang sent it to Shen Hanxing alone. Why would a man invite the woman he once liked to attend his engagement party? What is he hoping for? Does Lu Shaoyang hope for Shen Hanxing to change her mind, or does he want Shen Hanxing to elope with him on the day of the engagement party, just like in the TV series?” As long as Ji Yan thought of this, the dark emotions in him kept churning in his heart. He could feel that a ferocious beast in his heart was desperately trying to break out of the cage of reason, tearing apart all those who coveted his wife.
“Well, you will be attending as my male companion,” Shen Han Xin could not help but laugh, “let’s go together, okay?” Her gaze was clear and calm, without the slightest intention of lying. There was also not the slightest hint of guilt.
