"What about the two next to them?" Jiang Qi asked.

"That woman is Mingman, and the one next to her is her fiancé." Tang Xin said.

"When did Mingman come back?" It was the same question. Although Jiang Qi knew it, he still had to ask in order to avoid trouble.

"About half a year ago, something happened to her maternal family, so she came back."

"What happened?"

"You forgot what you told me before." Tang Xin lowered her voice.

"Is it really because of that?" Jiang Qi also lowered her voice and replied.

"That's right. After dragging our feet for more than a year, we finally can't hold on any longer." The two people's conversation was like a riddle. No one could understand it except themselves, at least Bai Qianyu next to them didn't understand it.

"Tsk, so things are unpredictable." Jiang Qi sighed. Then he continued, "By the way, I remember Ming Man's fiancé is the eldest son of the He family, right? The eldest son of the He family became a vegetable three years ago if there was no car accident. Who is this?"

Before Tang Xin could reply, the two people standing on the other side turned around and walked towards them. Jiang Qi saw a familiar face. She was a little stunned and blurted out three words: "He Sangran?"

"How come you know him too? It seems he is really famous." Tang Xin said jokingly.

"Why is he here? And with the Ming family." Jiang Qi asked Tang Xin.

"He is Mingman's fiancé." Compared to Jiang Qi's shock, Tang Xin answered calmly.

Jiang Qi glanced at Bai Qianyu, who was looking straight in that direction with a bad look on his face. Jiang Qi held his hand on the back of his hand and squeezed it gently. He then retracted his gaze.

"He's in the entertainment industry. How can he get engaged to the eldest daughter of the Ming family?" Jiang Qi continued to ask.

Tang Xin didn't notice Bai Qianyu's abnormality and answered directly: "Why not? What's wrong with the eldest daughter of the Ming family? She is still in the entertainment industry. And the net worth of the man next to her is very high now. It's not worse than that of the eldest daughter of the Ming family."

"What do you mean? Ming Man has entered the entertainment industry!?" Jiang Qi grasped the main point of the first sentence and didn't pay attention to the latter part. The main reason was that she was really shocked. This information was not mentioned in the original book.

"Yes, he debuted half a year ago. He signed with his own company. Right after his debut, he snatched away the resources and endorsements of several artists under my company." Tang Xin said with some resentment.

Jiang Qi didn't pay attention to her next words but lowered her voice and said in shock: "The Ming family is crazy, sending their eldest daughter into the entertainment industry! Didn't Ming Man resist?" In their eyes, the entertainment industry is no different from those actors in the old society, all of whom sell their looks, but now they are called stars, which sounds better. But they are all low-class jobs. Who would let their children do this, especially girls? Even if the Ming family really despises their daughter and wants to make room for their son, they wouldn't be so cruel. And even if Ming Man grew up abroad, she wouldn't be ignorant of these principles.

"Her family didn't force her. She did it voluntarily."

"how do you know?"

"At first, this young lady said she wanted to join my company. But let's not talk about the fact that his company is my competitor. Just talking about the young lady of the Ming family, how could I dare to accept her? But she turned around and signed with her own company and made her debut."

"No, what's the purpose here?" Jiang Qi didn't quite understand.

"What else could you want? Money. You don't know how fast we make money in this industry." Tang Xin still explained to Jiang Qi calmly.

"Is she short of money?"

"Yes." Tang Xin sighed. "Didn't something happen to her mother's family? It was such a big thing, and the Ming family was a close relative, so they must be involved. Did Master Gu tell you that the Ming family was shaken this time? Sending Ming Man to this fame and fortune field was, to put it bluntly, to let her make money. She herself volunteered to come in so that her mother could still gain a foothold in the Ming family." Tang Xin explained for Jiang Qi, and she also sympathized with Ming Man's experience. But her eating manners were really ugly, which made her feel really angry.

"Oh, so that's it." Jiang Qi didn't feel much. In these so-called wealthy families, these things are really normal. After all, nothing is more important than family interests.

"Then how are she and He Sangran..." Jiang Qi wanted to ask more, but the group of people had already walked up to them.

The middle-aged man in the lead called out to Jiang Qi with a kind smile, "Qiqi."

Jiang Qi had no choice but to stop the conversation. Then she put on a gentle smile, stood up, faced him, nodded slightly, and said, "Hello, Uncle Ming." Bai Qianyu and Tang Xin also stood up.

"You've been away for two years, and you finally decided to come back." The tone was extremely intimate, as if he was greeting a younger member of his own family.

Jiang Qi followed suit and said, "I've had enough fun, so I came back."

"Love comes back only after having enough fun, not because they miss us."

"How can I? Of course I miss Uncle Ming, too." There are many people in the capital who want to get close to Jiang Qi. In order to avoid getting into trouble with others and not letting others catch hold of her, Jiang Qi has become accustomed to being able to answer well regardless of whether they are really close or not.

"You girl." Ming Luosheng smiled and shook his head, then continued: "By the way, let me introduce you. This is my eldest son Mingyu. He just came back from abroad and you haven't met him yet." Then he patted the shoulder of the person next to him.

"Hello." Jiang Qi greeted him gently with a smile, and looked at the person in front of him inconspicuously. He was indeed good-looking, and his furrowed brows and obviously irritated eyes were slightly aggressive, which really made people feel unruly.

Jiang Qi greeted him, but Ming Yu did not respond. Ming Luosheng had no choice but to smile and pat his shoulder, saying, "This is Jiang Qi, your uncle Jiang's daughter, hello." He then pressed his shoulder.

Mingyu looked at Jiang Qi with a cold and unfriendly look, but still greeted her, "Hello, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Qi knew why Mingyu was unfriendly to her. It was simply because of Su Muqing. They had been in contact and knew about the things between Jiang Qi and Gu Jingcheng. Just now, because Luo Keke knew what happened not long ago, plus what happened just now, he would not be friendly to her. But who was he showing this face to? She didn't need to see his face.

"How old is Mingyu this year?" Jiang Qi asked Ming Luosheng.

"You're almost twenty-four this year. By the way, Qiqi, you were born in June. He is only half a year younger than you." Ming Luosheng replied.

"Is that so? Then he has to call me sister." After saying that, Jiang Qi looked in the direction of Mingyu.

Ming Luosheng instantly understood what Jiang Qi meant. No matter what the reason was, he wished Jiang Qi could get closer to Ming Yu, and it would be best if they could establish a relationship. Establishing a relationship with Jiang Qi would be a hundred benefits to Ming Yu right now.

So she immediately took over Jiang Qi's words and said, "Of course. Come on, call me sister." As she spoke, she pushed Mingyu next to her, causing her to get closer to Jiang Qi.

As she got closer, Jiang Qi realized that he was indeed quite tall, probably about the same height as Gu Jingcheng. She was now nearly 1.84 meters tall, with the pair of 10-centimeter high heels on her feet. She had to look up a little to look into his eyes. He had a tall and straight figure, and even through his suit, she could tell that he must be very strong.

Mingyu didn't say anything at this time, just stood there and looked at Jiang Qi. And the smile on Jiang Qi's face was a little stiff.

Humans, as advanced animals, will only fully display their animal nature when it comes to protecting their private space. Just like you will feel uncomfortable when you take the same elevator with a stranger. Because the other person is invading your private space in an unavoidable sealed space. Similarly, when a person who is obviously stronger in size and momentum approaches you, that is, when he or she is invading your territory. The early warning will instinctively send a warning to the brain, causing people to tremble and feel uneasy. This is the so-called sense of oppression. Therefore, when someone like Mingyu, who is considered strong in both physique and momentum, approaches others, it will cause considerable psychological pressure on people.

At this time, Mingyu had a gloomy face and stood with his hands behind his back. He stood in front of Jiang Qi in the posture of a soldier, staring at her with narrowed eyes. This deliberately released pressure made the feeling of oppression seem even heavier.

As for why Jiang Qi's expression was stiff? It wasn't because she was afraid, but because she felt offended. His current actions were a complete provocation to her, which completely aroused her desire to win.

Although Jiang Qi is a woman, she has been in a superior position since birth. Jiang Huai has always educated her as a strong person. In Jiang Huai's philosophy of educating her, she is born in a superior position, and no one can challenge or offend her authority.

It was almost a subconscious reaction. Jiang Qi still looked into his eyes without dodging, but the smile on her face became even bigger, but it was no longer gentle but ostentatious. She raised her hand and pinched her right wrist with her left hand.

The two of them had been silent for a while. Ming Luosheng seemed to realize that something was wrong. Just when Jiang Qi was about to take the next step, he said, "I told you to call for help. Why are you just standing there?" Then he pulled Ming Yu.

At the same time, a mechanical voice rang in Jiang Qi's mind: "Pay attention, pay attention, please respect the character."

Because of this, Jiang Qi came back to her senses and remembered that in this world, she could no longer be the same as before and had to keep a low profile. She could not do that kind of thing at today's banquet. She could not use the same old way of doing things.

Mingyu didn't know why he was dazed at the moment. When his father pulled him a second time, he called out, "Hello, sister." But he reacted almost immediately and realized what he had said. He was so annoyed that he wanted to slap himself.

Jiang Qi was also stunned by his call at first, but seeing his reaction, she immediately put on a gentle smile and said before he could speak: "Okay." Then she directly greeted Ming Man who had been standing next to her: "Sister Ming Man, long time no see."
