The staff member's attitude was very unyielding. Ji Xinqing had no choice but to give up her impractical thoughts. She walked to the side and dialed Meng Qingyu's number.

However, no one answered the phone for a long time.

After a few calls, Ji Xinqing even heard the notification that the other side had turned off.

Ji Xinqing sighed. Only now did she realize that bringing Meng Qin Yu over was a mistake.

Ji Xinqing raised her head to look at the Tang Mansion plaque.

But what to do?

She was shut out.

Are we going back just like that?

Ji Xinqing felt a sense of helplessness. Such a good opportunity to bring "Starry Night" into the world had been destroyed by her.

Ji Xinqing held the bag tightly and retracted her gaze. She was unwilling to give up so she dialed Meng Qingyu's number again. However, it was still a mechanical notification sound.

At this time, a staff member also walked over, "Miss, please don't stand at the entrance of the mansion. You will be blocking the other guests from entering."

Ji Xinqing smiled with an ugly expression. She could only turn around and leave.

However, before they had even taken a few steps, they heard a burst of hurried footsteps.

"Miss Ji, please wait."

Ji Xinqing was stunned. This voice was... Tang Han.

Turning around, she looked at Tang Han with a polite smile and asked, "Assistant Tang, is there something you need?"

Tang Han's attitude was very respectful. "Miss Ji, this young master invites you in."

"Yes …" "Mr. Tang?" Ji Xinqing asked uncertainly.

Tang Han nodded his head and gestured for the door to open.

"Miss Ji, the young master entered earlier. I'm sorry to leave you here alone, but he ordered his subordinates to bring you in."

Upon hearing his words, the staff member's expression changed as he looked at Ji Xinqing with mixed emotions.

Tang Jinyao never brought his girl into the Tang clan estate, but this girl was actually … Tang Jin Yao's female companion.

Ji Xinqing was also stunned, but she quickly realised that Tang Han's words were meant for the surrounding people.

Was it given to him by Tang Jinyao?

Ji Xinqing was silent for a long time before she shook her head and said, "Nothing." She then followed Tang Han into the house.

The grand ceremony had not yet begun, and all the guests were walking around the mansion.

Tang Han led Ji Xinqing to a door, "Miss Ji, little young master has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Sorry for the trouble, Assistant Tang."

Ji Xinqing knocked on the door a few times. No one answered, so she could only push open the door and enter.

A faint fragrance wafted through the air. Ji Xinqing quickly recalled the smell that she had smelled from Tang Jinyao's body.

There was a hollow screen in front of her. Ji Xinqing could vaguely see a man sitting opposite the screen.

Just as she was at a loss, the man said, "Miss Ji."

It was indeed Tang Jinyao.

Ji Xinqing suddenly felt a bit nervous. Tang Jinyao had once again saved her life this night.

After a long moment of hesitation, Ji Xinqing walked past the screen and saw Tang Yao lazily lying on a recliner.

The man was dressed in light peach pants and a knit shirt of the same color, looking very casual.

However, his entire body was filled with a refined and indifferent noble aura. This was a noble aura bestowed upon him by the Tang Clan that had a deep foundation.

Ji Xinqing did not know how to reply. She could only call him politely, "Mr. Tang."

Tang Jin smiled and raised his eyebrows at her, "What's wrong, Miss Ji? Are you blaming me for not being able to bring you into the house in time?"

Ji Xinqing's face slowly turned red as she shook her head and said, "No, Mr. Tang. Tonight, I'm very grateful to you."

"Oh? "Thank me for what?"

The two of them clearly knew what was going on, but facing Tang Yao, who was pretending to be stupid, Ji Xinqing suddenly didn't know how to respond.

Seeing her in a daze, Tang Jinyao shook his head with a smile, then stood up.

The tall figure cast a black shadow in front of Ji Xinqing.

"Miss Ji, it looks like you owe me another favor this time."

Ji Xinqing secretly held her bag, "I know Mr. Tang."

Tang Jin walked up to her and said, "Miss Ji, you seem to owe me a lot of favors, right?"

"Yes." Ji Xinqing lowered her head and stared at her toes.

She quickly understood the meaning behind Tang Jin's words. She raised her head, but was caught off guard and fell into a pair of pitch-black eyes.

Only then did she realize that the distance between them was almost ambiguous.

The man's clothes reeked of fragrance, causing Ji Xinqing's face to redden. She quickly took a step back, "Mr. Tang, just say what you want to say. I will not owe you a favor for nothing."

Shocked by her bluntness, Tang Jinyao's eyes widened slightly before looking at her and saying, "Miss Ji, I'm lacking a female companion tonight."

Female... companion.

However, Ji Xinqing gently laughed, "Mr. Tang, with your identity, I'm afraid that women would always rush madly to meet you. Are your words … Are you joking? "

"Miss Ji, have you forgotten how Tang Han brought you into the mansion?"

Ji Xinqing was stunned as she slowly thought back to Tang Han's words. In the end, she slowly came to an understanding.

Since Tang Jin had sent Tang Han to pick her up, didn't that just mean that she was one of his people? A female companion.

This form of address made Ji Xinqing's ears burn.

Tang Jin Yao spoke again, "Miss Ji, a lot of people saw you enter the house with Tang Han. Thinking about it, you must have already spread the news that you're my girlfriend."

He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Then tell me, Miss Ji, shouldn't you give me this face?"

Ji Xinqing could not refuse even if she wanted to, so she could only agree, "Mr. Tang, if you don't mind that I'm already married, I would naturally not mind being your companion."

Strangely enough, when Ji Xinqing said the word "wife," she noticed that Tang Jinyao's pupils had darkened by quite a bit.

In a flash, Tang Jinyao walked up to Ji Yunshu's side. Not giving Ji Yunshu the chance to resist, she put her hand on Ji Yunshu's arm and said, "Let's go, Miss Ji. There should be a lot of people waiting for us outside."

His arms were firm and strong, and Ji Xinqing's palms were beginning to heat up.

The two of them soon arrived at the hall.

Almost everyone stopped talking and laughing when they saw Tang Jinyao.

In the capital, the Tang Clan had an open secret.

Even up to the age of 32, Tang Jinyao was still alone.

In terms of looks and family background, Tang Jinyao was practically a top-notch existence in the imperial city.

However, this young master who lived at the top of the family, had not heard of anything in the past 32 years.

Tang Jinyao's marriage had not only become the Tang Clan's mental illness, it had also become the capital's top priority for entertainment.

But now, when the guests saw that Tang Jinyao was accompanied by an unfamiliar woman, they were stunned.

The woman had a gentle figure with a classical charm to her eyebrows. She was a classic Chinese beauty.

However, the woman's appearance was very unfamiliar.

Almost no one present recognized him.

After being stared at by so many people, Ji Xinqing finally felt uncomfortable.

However, Tang Jinyao stroked the back of her hand and whispered into her ear, "Don't worry."

Ji Xinqing knew that he was comforting her, but... She became even more nervous.

In such a large crowd of people, Tang Jinyao didn't even flinch. Wasn't it obvious that he was trying to stir up trouble by acting so intimately with her?

Ji Xinqing was a little regretful. She was Meng Qin Guan's wife, how could she be Tang Jin Yao's companion?

What's more, she had already promised Qin Yu. What if she saw him …
