Chapter 348 This Is My Answer (3)

Ji Yi knew that she should raise a glass to thank Mr. Sun, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't lift her arm.

There were capitalists all around, all of them extremely shrewd. Ji Yi only hesitated for a moment before someone noticed something was wrong and looked at her and Mr. Sun with a bit of suspicion in their eyes.

Mr. Sun passed the wine glass in his hand to Ji Yi again, pretending that Ji Yi was distracted, and calmly tried to save his face: "Ji Yi?"

Hearing the sound, Ji Yi raised his eyelids and saw the smile on Mr. Sun's lips at a glance.

She was almost exactly the same as she had always been, smiling but not smiling. Her expression changed slightly, and the wine glass on her fingertips seemed to be filled with boulders. It was so heavy that she couldn't even lift it.

The surrounding atmosphere became a little stiff because of Ji Yi's silence.

Mr. Sun was obviously a bit embarrassed. Probably because of He Jichen standing next to him, he did not fall out, but let out a light cough.

Ji Yi knew that everyone around her was looking at her, and she also knew that He Jichen called her over to show her face in front of the prominent people in these circles. Her delay in responding would not only leave a bad impression on herself , and it would also make it difficult for He Jichen to be a good person.

Ji Yi tried hard to convince herself in her heart that she would treat the person in front of her as a stranger and force her arm to reach towards Mr. Sun's wine glass.

Because she was too reluctant, her fingertips holding the wine glass were a little white from the exertion.

But her hand was only an inch closer to Mr. Sun's wine glass. The wine glass in her palm was taken away by a hand with long fingertips and clear joints. Then, in her ears, He Jichen's usual calm voice came. Clear voice: "I'm sorry, she doesn't have a particularly good drinking tolerance. She just drank some, and she probably feels upset in her stomach now."

After saying that, He Jichen didn't wait for the people around him to react, and shouted directly not far away: "Chen Bai."

"Mr. He." Chen Bai appeared next to He Jichen almost in the next second.

"Take Miss Ji to the lounge for a while." He Jichen ordered quietly.

"Yes." Chen Bai walked up to Ji Yi. Before he could whisper to Ji Yi, "Miss Ji, follow me," He Jichen spoke again: "Look for Miss Cheng and ask for some stomach medicine."

"I got it, Mr. He." Chen Bai nodded politely to the people around him, and then led Ji Yi out.

After entering the lounge, Chen Bai motioned for Ji Yi to sit down, and immediately followed He Jichen's instructions and went out to ask for stomach medicine from Cheng Weiwan.

In the quiet room, Ji Yi was the only one left. The forced smile on her lips disappeared completely. She stared at the dark night outside the window. Thinking of the holiday with Mr. Sun, she couldn't help but grasp her handbag with her fingertips. Even the corners of his lips pursed.

Not long after, the door to the lounge was pushed open again.

Ji Yi thought it was Chen Bai who was back, so he hurriedly adjusted the expression on his face and turned around to look.

But it was He Jichen.

Ji Yi was stunned for a moment, and then thought of her blunder when he introduced her to people, and couldn't help but lower her head in guilt.

She was just about to say "I'm sorry" to him, but when he walked up to her, he spoke first: "Are you unhappy?"

Ji Yi didn't expect that He Jichen would ask her such a question when she opened her mouth. She raised her head, glanced at him, and then shook her head gently.
