Chapter 14 Show yourself!
As night fell, the highlight of the banquet officially began.
Jing Zejun walked downstairs with Lin Ruiqing, and Jing Beicheng stepped forward to greet them.
Jing Zejun wore a black bow-knotted fishtail dress tonight, and her smooth black hair was scattered on her fair shoulders.
‘Is this the daughter that the Jing family found? ’
‘She looks quite decent. ’
‘This girl looks so familiar, have you seen her somewhere before? ’
The guests in the audience were thinking, but their faces remained polite and happy.
Jing Zejun kept smiling, put his hand in the palm that Jing Beicheng handed over, and stood in the center of the stage in the banquet hall.
“Everyone, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend this banquet. There is no chairman of Hengjing today. My wife and I are just ordinary parents. We want to share our joy with you.”
Jing Beicheng glanced at Jing Zejun sideways, and Jing Zejun saw his father’s slightly red eyes.
"Three months ago, the Jing family found the daughter who had been missing for more than 20 years..."
Jing Beicheng's image is always majestic and calm, and it is rare for him to lose his composure like this.
"Today, I just want everyone to see her and tell everyone that the eldest daughter of the Jing family is back."
Jing Zeqian has been watching Jing Zejun from below, happy for his sister, parents, brother and himself.
He was moved, standing beside and clapping with everyone, and his eyes swept to Jing Yi not far away.
Jing Zeqian was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Jing Yi's current situation...
Jing Zeqian was indeed happy for Jing Beicheng's words. After all, he didn't want anyone to take away what belonged to Jing Zejun, even the title of Jing family's daughter.
But now he has a little worry.
Jing Zeqian frowned slightly, his eyes passed through the crowd, and found Jing Yi's figure. She was clapping enthusiastically, and the excitement was more enthusiastic than the guests next to her.
There were too many people and he couldn't hear Jing Yi's voice, but looking at her like that, it was estimated that she didn't think as much as he did.
Jing Zeqian raised his lips, his narrow eyes flashed with a smile, and he turned his head to applaud with the guests.
On the other side, Jing Beicheng had already introduced Jing Zejun. He glanced at Jing Yi who was standing next to him.
"Yi Yi, you come up too."
Jing Yi, who was joining in the fun, suddenly heard her own voice, her expression was unexpected and confused.
Is he asking her to go up?
Everyone's eyes followed the direction Jing Beicheng was looking at and looked over.
Shen Xi quickly pulled her up and asked her to go on stage. These eyes were too anxious!
Jing Yi walked up with a stiff curve at the corner of her mouth.
"This is the youngest child in the family. She grew up abroad with her grandmother since she was a child. She just returned to China recently..."
The longer Jing Beicheng spoke, the more at a loss Jing Yi became. She didn't know why there was such an extra link.
Finally, Jing Beicheng finished speaking, and Jing Yi pulled Jing Zejun off the stage, leaving Jing Beicheng and Lin Ruiqing to continue socializing with the guests.
"How can this have anything to do with me?"
Jing Yi brought Jing Zejun to Shen Xi's side, and finally relaxed, looking very scared.
Jing Zejun's eyes were full of smiles, and the gentle temperament around him became stronger, "So you are nervous too? Then you laughed at me yesterday."
Jing Yi was blocked for a while, opened her mouth, but couldn't find a word to refute, staring at Jing Zejun with watery eyes.
Seeing her like this, Jing Zejun didn't embarrass her anymore, and looked at Shen Xi who was quietly beside him.
"Who is this?"
"My friend, Shen Xi."
Shen Xi's expression was a little nervous, and she stuttered: "Jiusheng, no no! Miss Jing, hello, I am Shen Xi." As soon as she was nervous, she called out Jing Zejun's name in the play.
Jiang Jiusheng, her name in the play "The King's Landing".
It turned out to be her analysis, Jing Zejun's smile was gentle, and his voice was also soft.
"Hello, Miss Shen, my name is Jing Zejun, Jing Yi's sister."
Jing Yi was a little helpless, because she and Jing Zejun were only one month apart.
"She is your fan, and she is a little nervous to see you."
Jing Yi knew how much Shen Xi loved the play, so she helped her express it to Jing Zejun.
"Thank you, do you need an autographed photo or a TO signature?"
Shen Xi's eyes lit up, and she was no longer nervous. She looked at Jing Zejun with joy, "Can I?"
Jing Zejun's mouth corners raised, his expression gentle, "Of course, I didn't bring it today, I'll let Yi Yi bring it to you when I go back."
"Okay!"
Before they had time to chat a few more words, several socialites came over with wine glasses.
"Miss Jing!"
Jing Zejun turned around and greeted several people politely, but she didn't know any of them.
"I'm Lulu!"
"I'm Lucy!"
"I'm Lucinda!"
Jing Zejun became more and more confused as he listened. Are these three people from the same family? Or a family? Or are they taking an English listening test?
If it wasn't impolite, she really wanted to ask, are these three people sisters?
When Jing Zejun was confused, Jing Yi tried her best to suppress the smile on her lips, and her whole body trembled slightly.
No wonder she said that this scene was familiar, this is the "plastic three sisters" who followed the original body to bully in the novel.
When she saw this name in the novel for the first time, she laughed so hard.
"Hello."
"Ms. Jing, congratulations! I'm so happy for you to find your family!"
The celebrity on the right took a step forward, her face full of sincerity, as if she really wanted to make Jing Zejun happy.
Her name seemed to be Lucinda?
This was the only thought in Jing Zejun's mind.
"Thank you."
After that, Lulu also came up, smiling, "Miss Jing, I'm Lulu."
"Hello, hello."
After that, these people said some nonsense, but they didn't greet Jing Yi from beginning to end, even though Jing Beicheng had introduced Jing Yi's identity just now.
Even Shen Xi noticed it, let alone Jing Zejun, a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
Jing Zejun didn't mind others fawning on her because of her identity as the daughter of the Jing family. The moment she entered the Jing family, she thought of today's scene.
But Jing Zejun didn't like their attitude towards Jing Yi, she chuckled and took Jing Yi's arm.
"Thank you for your congratulations. I am also very happy to have found my family and gained a beautiful sister."
The three sisters in front of him seemed a little embarrassed. They did deliberately ignore Jing Yi's existence. After all, there were still gossips about real and fake daughters in the circle. They thought that Jing Zejun no longer liked Jing Yi, the fake daughter.
The three people were busy greeting Jing Yi.
Jing Yi responded politely. In fact, she didn't care about the attitudes of the three sisters. This saved her a lot of energy.
But it didn't prevent Jing Yi from knowing that the Jing family was supporting her.
