The incident in the sofa area seemed to have ended, and the cocktail party gradually returned to normal. Everyone started to talk again.
“Sister Xiao Ai!” Ji Haoxue called out and ran over.
However, Jian Changsheng, who came down from the rooftop, coincidentally heard this sentence.
He had accidentally heard his daughter’s name from Wang Yunmei not long ago, and he remembered it in his heart. Therefore, he was abnormally sensitive to the name ‘Xiao Ai: Even in the slightly chaotic cocktail party, he could still clearly hear this name.
Jian Changsheng stopped in his tracks and looked through the crowd, trying to find the source of the voice.
However, there were too many people at the cocktail party. Even if he was sure that he didn’t hear wrong, he still couldn’t find the person who had called out to Xiao Ai.
“What’s wrong, Changsheng?” Li Qiang seemed to have noticed Jian Changsheng’s abnormality. He couldn’t help but look at him and ask with a serious expression.
Jian Changsheng didn’t hide it and said, “I heard someone call for Xiao Ai.”
Li Qiang was shocked when he heard this. His gaze instinctively searched for Jian Ai’s figure. However, the person he was looking for was in the sofa area sitting, and the surrounding people coincidentally blocked his vision.
“I didn’t hear wrong. Someone called Xiao Ai is at the cocktail party today!” Jian Changsheng said with certainty.
Li Qiang’s heart trembled. He didn’t immediately reject Jian Changsheng’s words. Instead, he said in a tactful tone, “It might not be your daughter, Xiao Ai. After all, this is the Langxing Gala. It shouldn’t be possible for her to appear here, right?”
However, Jian Changsheng wouldn’t let go of any hope. He said firmly, “Even if it’s not her, I want to look. What if it’s her?”
Li Qiang pursed his lips and looked up. He saw Qiao Shuyi walking over from the side. He immediately reminded Jian Changsheng, “Changsheng, Shuyi is here!”
Jian Changsheng regained his senses, and his expression returned to normal. Coincidentally, Qiao Shuyi had already walked over.
“You smoked too long. You must have smoked more than one cigarette,” Qiao Shuyi naturally held Jian Changsheng’s arm and whispered with a smile.
Jian Changsheng also smiled. “I forgot the time when I was talking to Qiangzi. I’m sorry.”
Qiao Shuyi didn’t take this matter to heart. She usually stayed at home most of the time. Now that she could accompany Jian Changsheng to such an important cocktail party, Qiao Shuyi was satisfied and happy.
“CEO Qiu from the Qiu Group was looking for you just now. Let’s go and greet him,” Qiao Shuyi said.
Jian Changsheng nodded and turned around to Li Qiang, “Qiangzi, we’ll go over first.”
Li Qiang nodded and watched the two of them leave. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
He hoped Jian Changsheng would get his wish, but at least it shouldn’t be in such a situation where he was around with Shuyi. After all, he should consider his family now.
At the same time, Jian Ai was chatting with Ji Haoxue on the sofa.
“Sister Xiao Ai, so you already know my brother from before?” Ji Haoxue blinked her big eyes with excitement.
Ji Haoyu sat at the side with his legs crossed. Wu Bi also sat at the side and looked at the two of them. No one said anything.
Jian Ai smiled and nodded without denying it.
Ji Haoxue’s eyes lit up, and she clapped excitedly. “Then we’re really fated..”
