No, she doesn’t even compare to half of La Chenxi, but damn it, he still made room for her in his eyes. Even when she infuriated him or her appearance was awful, he still accepted her. Moreover, the tolerance he showed her surpassed that for La Chenxi back in the day.
Therefore, Ji Chengzhi really could understand his current mood because he had allowed her to occupy a place in his heart, yet she "repaid" him so cruelly with her actions. How could he want to see her again?
To put it bluntly, even if she had not participated in the attempt on his life, the mere fact that she was informed was enough for him to kick her out of his heart.
After leaving the hospital room, Ji Chengzhi felt a pang of heartache for the first time on behalf of the man inside...
Better not to go. If he didn’t go, at least, there would be no more chances for him to get hurt!
Ji Chengzhi took out his phone and made a call: "Hello, Uncle, I’ve confirmed it. Tonight, I can bring Mucen to the banquet on time."
Because she had to attend a banquet, Ye Ning had no choice but to change into the little dress that Qiao Feiyu had sent over earlier.
The Qiao Family, in A City, wasn’t particularly prominent, but since Qiao’s father was a university professor, surely a lot of people would attend his wife’s birthday. It really wouldn’t be appropriate for her to dress too casually.
After changing into the little dress, Little Baozi, who had also put on new clothes, saw how pretty his mom looked and his little face bloomed with joy: "Mommy, do you want to put on some makeup?"
Ye Ning looked at him: "Why should I wear makeup?"
Ye Xiaobao blinked his beautiful big eyes: "Because it’s polite. Mommy’s wearing such a pretty dress, if you don’t wear makeup, Aunt Qiao’s mom might think Mommy is being rude."
Ye Ning glanced at her somewhat plain appearance in the mirror compared to the little dress and actually sat down to apply a light makeup.
After she finished her makeup, the car that was ready to take them to the Qiao Family was waiting downstairs. Hearing this, Ye Ning quickly got ready and went downstairs with her son’s hand in hers.
"Xiaobao, coming down?"
Surprisingly, the person waiting downstairs wasn’t that man, but his assistant Xiaojin.
When Ye Xiaobao saw him, he immediately ran over and threw himself at him: "Uncle Jin, are you taking us there today?"
Xiaojin bent down and picked him up: "Yeah, your Uncle Lin has already gone ahead. He asked me to wait here for you. Aning, get in the car."
Ye Ning was actually relieved that the person waiting here wasn’t that man. Hearing the invitation to get in the car, she didn’t refuse and got in with her high heels on.
"Xiaojin, what time does the banquet start? If there’s still time, let’s take a stroll on the street. I haven’t prepared a gift yet."
Once in the car, Ye Ning remembered that she hadn’t prepared anything and wanted Xiaojin to take her out for a bit.
But upon hearing this, Xiaojin looked at his watch and shook his head: "It’s almost starting; don’t worry about it. The lady isn’t a stranger, she won’t mind."
Upon hearing that, Ye Ning had to let it go!
Forget it, anyway, she wasn’t going to stay there for long; she would just take Xiaobao for a stroll and then return.
So, sitting in the back without making a sound, she watched the scenery outside fly past with her son by her side...
The Qiao Family, she actually had never been there. Since coming here, firstly, she didn’t have the time, and secondly, Lin Yebai didn’t really want her to interact with his own family, especially his mother.
