The whole venue fell into a moment of silence, then someone reacted. Men were enamored, women jealous, as if under a spell. Seeing this person, they truly understood the profound meaning of the word beautiful. "Is this Miss Ji? She’s really beautiful..." someone exclaimed in astonishment. "Miss Ji rarely attends banquets. Who would have thought Lin Sili’s face was significant enough to invite Miss Ji." "I heard that Miss Lin and Miss Ji have a good relationship. Lin’s was fortunate to have Ji’s support, otherwise, they would have long gone bankrupt." The discussions surged one after another. Pan Yu came to her senses, and as the host, naturally went over to greet her, "Miss Ji’s arrival truly brings great honor to our humble home, please come inside." In her heart, she mumbled that Ji Yunya had better not intervene, or she would not be merciful. After all, what was Miss Ji but a young girl. The young girl smiled gently, poised and gracious, "Lady Lin, congratulations to you first." Anyone who saw her would say that Ji Yunya was graceful beyond measure, truly deserving of being called the top socialite. Only Pan Yu felt her words were full of sarcasm, a blatant slap in her face. Pan Yu responded with a forced smile, "Oh, not at all, Sili is naive, as her elder, I can only share her burden, hoping she will learn some sense in the future." Yun Ya smiled nonchalantly. This Pan Yu never stopped setting traps for Lin Sili, but her tricks were far inferior to Yun Shu’s. The fact that Lin Sili tolerated such a woman living under her nose for two years showed she had a truly big heart. Seeing her seemingly gentle smile, Pan Yu suddenly got goosebumps. "Isn’t that Miss Ji? My eldest sister sure has a lot of influence, being able to invite Miss Ji. But as they say, birds of a feather flock together, looks like Miss Ji and my big sister, heh..." Lin Qianqian suddenly spoke, full of sarcasm. Lin Sili got pregnant out of wedlock, if you’re her friend, how good can you be? She didn’t like Ji Yunya, just as she disliked Lin Sili instinctively, in truth she just didn’t want to admit to a woman’s jealousy. Yun Ya glanced at her, that seemingly smiling but not smiling look made Lin Qianqian’s heart skip a beat, then she proudly straightened her chest and glared back fiercely. "Second Miss Lin, you and Miss Lin are sisters by blood, how could my friend compare to you?" "Pfft," someone laughed out loud. "Exactly, Second Miss Lin, you tarnish yourself first, after all, you two are related by blood." Lin Qianqian’s face suddenly turned dark, "You...." Pan Yu hurriedly pulled her aside, giving her a secret glare, then smiled at Ji Yunya, "This child is just joking, Miss Ji, please don’t take it to heart." Yun Ya nodded with a smile, "You can mess around with food, but jokes shouldn’t be made carelessly. Not everyone is as easygoing as I am." Her voice was soft and gentle, not a trace of sarcasm could be heard, one might even feel she was genuinely considerate. Pan Yu’s face stiffened, and Lin Qianqian secretly glared at her, inwardly cursing this woman. Hypocrite, let’s see how long you can keep up the act. Yun Ya no longer paid attention to them, chatting with the socialites and ladies of prestige with ease, skillfully navigating the atmosphere, particularly charming, even the jealous ladies couldn’t help but feel agreeable after interacting with her. Watching this, Lin Qianqian’s teeth ached with jealousy; this woman was an even better actor than Lin Sili. Pan Yu glanced at her and warned in a low voice, "Behave yourself, this Ji Yunya is not simple." "Got it," Lin Qianqian replied in a tone neither humble nor obsequious. Outside the main door, a tall figure walked in. The young man in a white suit, with a handsome face, smiled sunnily and obediently, looking very much like the boy next door, exceptionally endearing to women. Of course, if one ignored the fleeting ruthlessness in his eyes. "Isn’t that the Fourth Young Master Ning? Why is he here?" "So handsome, if only he were my boyfriend...." The infatuated voices rose one after another. This young man was none other than the current head of the Ning Family, known as Fourth Young Master Ning Zihuan. In Jiangzhou, Ning Zihuan’s name was known by all, along with Pei Qinghan, both dubbed as the Double Evils of Jiangzhou. His power rivaled that of Pei Qinghan’s Han Yi Gang. Rumor had it that Ning Zihuan, though young, was extremely ruthless, killing without batting an eye. In the rumors, he was described as a devil-like figure, too contrary to imagination. Therefore, seeing him in person at this moment was even more shocking. Who would have thought that this seemingly docile, delicate boy would be the merciless big villain from the rumors?
