If you just watch the plot, Jiang Qi hates this person very much. Not to mention other things, just because she herself had the experience of having her fiancé taken away by someone, she would not like this person.

Moreover, the character written by Lin Yue should simply be a copy of the cannon fodder and vicious female supporting characters from those common romance novels.

But now Jiang Qi looks at Tang Xin from her original memory. Although the things in the original book did happen, she still likes this person. It's just that she hasn't seen him for two years, and she doesn't know if he is still the same as she remembers.

Jiang Qi had just walked in and was still more than ten steps away when Tang Xin immediately stood up and walked towards her with a smile. She originally wanted to put her arm around her, but gave up because Jiang Qi was wearing a long-sleeved dress which might get wrinkled.

Then he walked side by side with her towards the table where she had just sat, and asked softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Are you okay?"

Tang Xin was asking about what happened just now. Jiang Qi shook her head.

The person in front of me was wearing a rose-colored couture dress. Compared with her memory of two years ago, she looked much more mature, and her aura seemed capable and decisive. Her whole body exuded a kind of confident and flamboyant beauty.

After the two of them sat down, the waiter next to them immediately came forward to pour tea for Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi leaned back in her chair and raised her hand to touch her earlobe. She was not used to wearing earrings, and these two things, a whole flower, with a chain and tassels, were made of silver. They were so heavy that they made her ear holes bigger.

"What's wrong?" Tang Xin asked softly.

"It's okay." Jiang Qi shook her head slightly, then put her hand down. She looked at her with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why are you here?" Because considering the social status of the Tang family, Tang Xin alone did not have the presence to sit here at Mr. Gu's birthday banquet.

"Oh, I came with my mother-in-law." Tang Xin explained to Jiang Qi calmly.

"Your mother-in-law?!" Jiang Qi's tone and expression showed obvious surprise. Although Jiang Qi knew about this, logically she should not know about it.

"What? You didn't know? Didn't anyone tell you?"

Jiang Qi looked at Tang Xin with a blank expression and shook his head.

Tang Xin looked at her and thought for a while before saying, "Oh, right. You just came back not long ago, so no one should have had time to tell you. I got married, almost a month ago, but I haven't held the wedding banquet yet." After saying that, she raised her left hand to show Jiang Qi the ring on her ring finger. It was a very simple ring, the ring was made of platinum, and the width was only about one or two millimeters. The diamond in it looked about 30 points in size, and the price was capped at no more than 5000 yuan. Such a simple and plain ring worn on the hand of the woman in front of her looked out of place in contrast to the exquisitely crafted manicure on her hand.

"Is this true? Who did you marry?" Jiang Qi still had a shocked expression and tone. After all, she was acting in a complete manner. But she was also a little surprised. She remembered that Tang Xin's marriage partner seemed to be the eldest son of the Jing family. Even if the Jing family didn't like Tang Xin, they wouldn't just give her a ring to get rid of her. Do they still want to save face?

"Jinghui."

"Is it the one I know?" Jiang Qi looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Yeah." Tang Xin nodded.

"What's going on?! Isn't he Rococo's fiancé?" Jiang Qi's voice was a little louder. Fortunately, Gu Jingcheng was afraid that Jiang Qi would not be able to eat because of the noise, so he arranged a table for them in the corner, and the tables next to them were deliberately left empty. So even if they talked louder, they would not be afraid of being heard.

"Well... this matter is a bit complicated. How should I tell you?" Tang Xin hesitated for a moment, then asked, "So, which version do you want to listen to first?"

Jiang Qi couldn't help laughing when she heard Tang Xin's words: "Tell me the popular version first."

Tang Xin sighed and said, "It was a reunion of my junior high school classmates a month ago. I deliberately got him drunk and then had sex with him. I also forced him to be responsible for me, which led to the annulment of his 20-year engagement with Rococo, and then he married me. I perfectly inherited my mother's fine tradition of destroying other people's relationships."

"Amazing! When I was little, I didn't even dare to speak loudly to Rococo. Now I dare to snatch her fiancé from her."

"Who am I? The vicious stepsister who bullied Cinderella. I embezzled people's property and forced away the legitimate eldest daughter. Now it's normal for me to destroy people's feelings and steal their fiancé." Tang Xin followed up Jiang Qi's words and replied sarcastically.

"Heh." Jiang Qi was thoroughly amused. "Why did you force Tang Wan to leave? When did this happen?"

"It was more than a year ago. She quarreled with my mom and her dad at home every day, saying that I was encroaching on her family's property. She was so noble, pitiful and weak that I didn't send her away. She was just an eyesore to me." Tang Xin's tone was very bad and full of impatience.

The banquet had already begun, and the two paused their conversation. The waiter first brought towels and tea for them to rinse their hands and mouths. Then they began to serve the dishes one by one in an orderly manner. Six exquisite dishes were placed on the table. The portions were not large but the presentation was very exquisite. The last dish served was a small stove with one or two small pieces of coal burning in it. It was burning vigorously but there was no choking smoke. Instead, there was a light fragrance of wood, which should be pineapple charcoal. On top was a small ceramic cup filled with boiling water, and in the middle was a sealed small wine pot. Two small bone china wine glasses were placed in front of the two.

The waiter took out the wine jug, uncorked it, and the aroma of the wine came out. Then he poured wine for each of them, put the wine back, and stood at the back.

Tang Xin picked up the wine glass in front of him. The wine inside was hot. He blew it gently and took a sip. His eyes lit up and he looked up at Jiang Qi and said, "This is excellent Shaoxing rice wine. Would you like to try it?"

Jiang Qi smiled and shook her head. Jiang Qi never drank alcohol when she attended banquets outside. Tang Xin also knew Jiang Qi's rules and did not persuade her. She drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and when she put down the glass, the waiter behind her immediately came forward to refill it for her.

Seeing that she was about to pick it up, Jiang Qi stopped her and said, "Drink less. This hot wine can easily make you drunk."

"Oh, OK." Then he put down the wine glass obediently. Then he looked at the dishes on the table and sighed, "As expected of the Gu family! They use the Tan family's dishes to set up a banquet, and they have set up more than 100 tables. Looking around the whole capital, only the Gu family can afford such a thing."

Jiang Qi didn't answer, but picked up the chopsticks and casually took a small bite of food and put it into his mouth. He chewed slowly, and then put the chopsticks down. These were just the food for the guests to toast and chat, and the main course hadn't been served yet.

Tan's cuisine is a proper official cuisine, famous for its exquisiteness. The ingredients are extremely fine, the cooking methods are extremely detailed, and there are many ways to eat. What you eat is not the food, but its exquisiteness. The price of a banquet like this is already very considerable, but this time, Mr. Gu's birthday banquet had 100 tables. It is true that only the Gu family can do this and have such a generous amount of money.

The banquet hall was already noisy, and people at each table had already started talking. Jiang Qi then continued the previous topic with Tang Xin.

"Did you really send Tang Wan away because you thought she was an eyesore?" Jiang Qi asked in a gentle tone.

"Alas, it's been more than 10 years, I'm used to seeing her no matter how annoying she is." Tang Xin sighed, and then began to complain to Jiang Qi: "You don't know that she does nothing at home every day. She just quarrels with my mom and her dad, and her dad has a heart attack."
