Ji Hanmo had originally prepared Bai Yunxi for the job, requiring her, as the wife of the president of Ji Corporation, to appear under the flash lights in the most elegant manner. However, when he felt the flash lights lighting up intensively, Bai Yunxi suddenly became more nervous, and could not help but stretch out his hand to cover her face, then quickened his pace to lead her in.

Tao Jingchen also noticed Bai Yunxi's slightly furrowed brows and the panic he couldn't hide, so he silently covered the two of them and stopped those unwilling media people behind him.

I thought things would be better after entering, but even though there were no flash lights inside, everyone's attention was even more intense than with the flash lights.

Especially those women who usually tried to please Ji Hanmo but were never taken seriously by him, all stared at Bai Yunxi with burning eyes, with curiosity, contempt, hatred, anyway, almost none of them had good intentions. Without exception, they all used their eyes to release thousands of volts of high voltage electricity at her, wishing they could burn her and her hand holding Ji Hanmo's to ashes immediately!

Bai Yunxi secretly complained bitterly. She knew that a demon like Ji Hanmo would be surrounded by peach blossoms wherever he went. A woman like her had almost no fighting power and would have no other good ending except becoming cannon fodder.

But Ji Hanmo insisted on taking her everywhere. Really, does he think she lives too long?

"Yunxi!" Tao Jingying quickly ran to her, "You're here?!"

With a smile on her face, she took Bai Yunxi's arm from Ji Hanmo very naturally and kindly and supported her.

Bai Yunxi knew her. She was the only one she knew among all the women. Plus, she took the initiative to show kindness, which made Bai Yunxi feel more at ease.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ji, I will take good care of Yunxi!" Tao Jingying said with a smile.

Ji Hanmo also had to attend the signing ceremony with Tao Jingchen. He couldn't accompany Bai Yunxi all the time, but he didn't want her to be too nervous. Tao Jingying was willing to take care of Bai Yunxi, so of course he was more than happy to accept it. Although he knew it was Tao Jingchen who arranged it, he just glanced at him and nodded slightly.

Those women who originally looked unkindly at Bai Yunxi naturally retracted their gazes when they saw that the Tao family also attached so much importance to her. However, they still gathered in groups of three or five to secretly inquire about her background.

The signing ceremony was held right at the gate. The pre-prepared contract was placed on the temporary signing table. Ji Hanmo and Tao Jingchen, two of the best, stood beside the signing table. After an enthusiastic introduction by the host, they inevitably complimented each other, and then began the formal signing.

In fact, the actual details of the contract were not only finalized after many discussions and negotiations between the two of them, but a more detailed contract had already been signed before. This signing was just a show in front of the media in order to increase momentum and give an explanation to certain forces.

It was very lively outside, and most of the guests who came to the cocktail party went over to watch the fun. Tao Jingying took the opportunity to take Bai Yunxi to a quieter corner to rest.

"Don't be nervous. Just think of it as hanging out at a friend's house. Signing contracts and the like are their business. There's no need for us to act like we're here to fight."

Tao Jingying handed her a glass of freshly squeezed juice and grinned.

Bai Yunxi also laughed. To be honest, ever since Ji Hanmo assigned her this task and asked her to memorize the information he gave her, she felt that she was here to fight.

What's more, those women just now had obviously hostile eyes. She couldn't help but treat this place as a battlefield!

Fortunately, Tao Jingying acted as a shield for her in time!

Although as the head of the household, this was Tao Jingying's duty, but her timely appearance helped Bai Yunxi a lot. Bai Yunxi naturally understood such a simple truth and of course he had to appreciate it.

So Bai Yunxi naturally became closer to her.

They wanted some quiet time, but some people were not happy about it. After a while, a charming woman came over and stood directly in front of Bai Yunxi, looking her up and down with contempt.

"Are you Bai Yunxi?" she said disdainfully.

Tao Jingying frowned: "Yes, this Miss Bai is Mr. Ji's wife. What's the matter, Miss Liang?"

She deliberately pronounced the words "Mr. Ji's wife" very clearly, but she didn't expect that Miss Liang not only did not back down, but instead made a sound of regret and shook her head.

"It's such a pity that such a great man like Mr. Ji fell into the hands of such a woman."

Bai Yunxi was speechless. She admitted that she was very low, but how high could this woman's quality be when she was insulted so blatantly? And she acted so high and mighty. It was enough!

Tao Jingying stood up suddenly: "Ms. Liang! Please be careful with your words!"

Insulting her guests in her home was an insult to her in itself, not to mention that the person being insulted was Bai Yunxi?

She is Ji Hanmo's wife, Tao Jingying can't let her be insulted on her own turf. She looks so much like Murong Qianqian, Tao Jingying can't tolerate her being insulted in front of her!

Tao Jingying is not tall, but she is a descendant of the Tao family and has a unique temperament. She has been tempered in the army and has been in the business world with Tao Jingchen for many years. Therefore, no matter her actions or words, she exudes an aura that cannot be taken lightly.

Miss Liang involuntarily took a step back, but those who were invited to such a cocktail party all had a deep and complicated background, so she was not afraid of Tao Jingying. After she reacted, she straightened her back.

"Am I wrong? This woman's family has been farming for generations, and she is not particularly beautiful. How can she marry Mr. Ji? Besides, haha, I heard that her family was going to send her away for marriage. Mr. Ji married such a woman. I just said it's a pity. What's wrong with that?"

This was the first time Bai Yunxi met Miss Liang, but she could actually tell Bai Yunxi's family background. Bai Yunxi was immediately surprised. Then when he heard her say that Bai Yunxi was sent by her family to be exchanged for a bride, a light bulb suddenly flashed in his mind and he thought of something. Sure enough, in the corner not far away, he found a familiar silhouette.

This isn't the one who...

Haha, it’s true that pregnancy makes people stupid for three years. Her memory has become so bad that she actually forgot the name of this woman who used to be her colleague so quickly!

At first, she thought she and Bai Yunxi would never have any contact again, but she didn't expect that enemies would meet on a narrow road. Today, she somehow got in touch with Miss Liang and got into this kind of occasion.

It seems that Miss Liang is not so clear-headed. She was actually instigated by someone to come and avenge her!

What a pity that Miss Liang is being used as a tool by others and she doesn't even realize it!

Bai Yunxi had been trained by Ji Hanmo in various ways, so she knew that she couldn't lose in such an occasion. From her point of view, it was better to have less trouble than more, so she just ignored these people. At this moment, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind: If Ji Hanmo encountered such a person, he would definitely not suffer in vain!

She straightened her back for some unknown reason and said calmly, "Then according to what Miss Liang meant, I am marrying up to Ji Hanmo and holding him back?"

Miss Liang rolled her eyes and snorted, "Is it Mr. Ji who is marrying above his station, or is it you who is marrying above his station? Anyone with a discerning eye can tell."

She was right again!

Bai Yunxi lowered his head and smiled slightly: "If Miss Liang can attract Ji Hanmo, you can do it. If he can follow you, I don't mind giving up the throne."

She was telling the truth! Not to mention Miss Liang, if Ji Hanmo could take a fancy to any one of these women and let her go, she would be more than happy!

But she didn't know that her words in this situation were more like a provocation: You think I'm not worthy of him? Go ahead! Try to see if he likes you? !

Sure enough, when these words reached Ji Hanmo's ears, he immediately felt relaxed and happy! I never realized that this inconspicuous and stupid snail could be so domineering!

It really makes him proud!
