บท 32: Chapter 32 He must be sick

The Xie family was a prominent and wealthy clan, whereas the Ji family could still compete with them twenty years ago.

However, after Lin Xu and her husband passed away, the Ji family's fortunes declined considerably. Despite Ji Tingyang's subsequent efforts to turn the tide and pull the Ji family back up, they still ranked lower than the Xie family.

So even if Ji Tingyang was unwilling, he had no choice but to save face for the Xie family by attending the birthday banquet.

This birthday banquet was attended by many people, all of whom were distinguished figures frequently mentioned in the financial newspapers.

Lin Xu wore a shoulder-baring champagne-colored evening dress, its form-fitting design highlighting her perfect figure. The flowing hem of the gown swished with her every step. The necklace embedded with gems and the exquisite bracelet accentuated her elegance and nobility to their fullest extent.
