Ji Xuan had mentioned that she needed to attend a banquet tonight, so she waited until 5 pm before taking the initiative to call Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan didn’t pick up, so she could only call Guan Shen.

Guan Shen looked at the boss who was tying his tie and said, “Miss Liang just called to ask about the time and location of the banquet.”

Ji Xuan paused. He had said in the morning that he wanted Liang Ran to accompany him, but at that time, he did not know that Liang Ran’s father had passed away.

“Didn’t her father just pass away?”

Guan Shen nodded. He didn’t understand what Liang Ran was thinking.

Miss Liang used to be quite famous because of her good looks and outstanding temperament. She was also known as the number one socialite in the circle. However, he had never heard of her scheming tactics.

Ji Xuan thought of that woman. She was flawless. Although she was inexperienced in bed, she was not bad.

However, her eyes always seemed to be plotting something.

He didn’t mind playing with her. He curled his lips and snorted, “Interesting. Send her the time and location of the banquet.”

After Liang Ran received the news, she went upstairs to freshen up and changed into a simple and clean dress.

“Ranran, are you going out now?” Bi Wen looked at her worriedly.

Liang Ran nodded and told her to make something for herself to eat.

Bi Wen’s eyes were filled with tears as her heart ached. “Ranran, last night…”

“Mom, I have no other choice. There’s no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. There’s always a loss.”

Bi Wen burst into tears and pounded her chest. “I’m useless. I can’t even protect my own daughter.”

Liang Ran’s nose tingled as she lifted Bi Wen into her arms.

“Mom, don’t feel sorry for me. Dad is gone, and we are the closest people to each other. As long as you don’t look down on me, I don’t care what other people think of me.”

Bi Wen cried, “Mom will never look down on you, only feel sorry for you.”

Liang Ran felt warm in her heart, but her determination grew stronger.

After comforting Bi Wen, Liang Ran took a taxi to the banquet venue.

This was a large-scale commercial exchange banquet, and the organizer was Ji Xuan’s family. Those who wanted to get close to the Ji family would try their best to come even if they did not have an invitation.

Liang Ran didn’t have an invitation. After she arrived, she sent a message to Ji Xuan and waited outside.

“Hey, isn’t this Miss Liang?”

A sharp voice rang out. Liang Ran could already tell who it was before she saw the person.

She turned around and saw a couple walking hand in hand, the man in a sharp suit and the woman in elegant clothing, looking very matched.

Zeng Lu held onto Fan Jin’s arm, looking at Liang Ran with a victorious expression, glancing at her from head to toe.

“Dressed like this, don’t tell me you’re here to attend the banquet? It looks like you were here for a funeral?”

Zeng Lu knew about the death of Liang Ran’s father and said that on purpose to rub salt into Liang Ran’s wound.

Fan Jin didn’t know about the incident yet, but he felt uneasy seeing Liang Ran like this.

He opened his mouth to speak, but a cold voice interrupted from behind.

“Whose dog is barking? If it can’t be trained, then don’t let it out to bark recklessly.”

The only person speaking on the scene was Zeng Lu. It was clear who he was referring to.

Zeng Lu was so angry that her eyes turned red. She glared at the newcomer with rage. But when she saw who it was, she was stunned.

Ji Xuan?

Everyone in the circle knew Ji Xuan. He was outstanding in looks and charisma, and most importantly, his status was unmatched.

Ji Xuan ignored her stunned expression and walked straight past her toward Liang Ran.

Liang Ran had originally wanted to enjoy Zeng Lu’s angry expression a little longer, but when Ji Xuan approached, she had to look up at him.

Skillfully raising the corners of her mouth and speaking in a sweet and gentle tone, she said, “Mr. Ji.”

Ji Xuan was momentarily stunned. He couldn’t deny that Liang Ran’s flattering appearance was hard to resist. It was indeed pleasant with a companion like her

He completely ignored the looks of those around him, reaching out and embracing Liang Ran’s slender waist, leaning down to kiss her on the lips.

“You look so beautiful in this dress, elegant and generous.”

Liang Ran was slightly stunned. Ji Xuan’s tone was very sincere, and she couldn’t tell if he was acting or not.

With a smile on his lips, Ji Xuan was amazingly gentle. “What are you staring at? Let’s go in.”

After he finished speaking, he took Liang Ran’s hand and walked in, ignoring everyone around him.

Zeng Lu was so angry that she could almost spew fire from her eyes as she watched Liang Ran.

Fan Jin was still in shock. Other than shock, there was also a lot of inexplicable depression.

He had done the same thing to Liang Ran before. The two of them had been childhood sweethearts and had had the purest romantic relationship.

At that time, Liang Ran was very innocent. Even if he touched her casually, she would blush.
