Just as Jun Zinuo was in a daze, the man was also sizing her up with a thoughtful gaze. When Jun Zi Xuan's cold gaze landed on her, she noticed the man's probing gaze. Her face turned red and she wanted to find a corner to hide. She saw Mother Jun hurriedly walk towards her and warmly pull her towards the unfamiliar man.
"Nuonuo, this is Young Master Yuan, your brother's friend.”Mother Jun introduced enthusiastically.
Jun Zinuo stood awkwardly in front of Yuan Mingche. She stepped forward stiffly and greeted him," Hello, Young Master Yuan."”
"Young Master Yuan is just a friend. Auntie can just call me Mingche.”Yuan Mingche smiled warmly.
Jun Zinuo looked at the smile in his eyes, but he felt that his smile did not reach his eyes at all. It was faintly cold and distant.
Mother Jun called out excitedly.”
Yuan Mingche smiled faintly. His gaze seemed to be sizing up Jun Zinuo, who was standing beside Mother Jun, and his eyes flashed with surprise and astonishment.
Jun Zinuo quietly retreated from the crowd. She didn't like Yuan Mingche's playful gaze when he looked at her just now. She also didn't like Second Aunt's disdainful gaze outside the crowd. Both of them made her feel uncomfortable. She noticed that Jun Ziqing's face was slightly flushed. She was looking at Yuan Mingche intently.
"Everyone, quiet down, quiet down." A loud and clear voice came from the stage.
The hall was silent as Grandfather Jun strode onto the stage. After saying a few beautiful words of welcome, he went straight to the main topic.
"Today's banquet is mainly to welcome my granddaughter and grandson who are studying abroad. There's also good news that my second grandson, Jun Ziheng, is about to get engaged to the eldest daughter of the Yu family, Yu Jingya. Their engagement ceremony will be held at the Hyatt Hotel in a month's time.”
There was a round of applause and cheers from the audience. Jun Zinuo's face turned pale in an instant. She held onto the table beside her to stabilize her swaying body. She raised her misty eyes and looked at Jun Ziheng, who was standing beside Grandfather Jun. Second Brother was still as gentle as ever, and his smile was still so reassuring and warm.
Jun Ziheng looked at Jun Zinuo's misty eyes. Pain and struggle flashed through his heart. However, when he thought of his mother's words, his heart could not help but turn cold.
Jun Zizhuo quietly supported Jun Zinuo, who was on the verge of collapsing. Jun Zinuo's body stiffened. She pushed Jun Zizhuo's hand away and staggered out of the hall.
Jun Zizhuo's mouth was filled with bitterness. He knew that Jun Zinuo was blaming him. He had known about Jun Zinuo's feelings for Jun Ziheng since a long time ago. He also knew that the reason why she wanted to escape the Jun Family was mostly because of Jun Ziheng. She wanted to appear by Jun Ziheng's side with another identity. He had once vowed to help her because he knew that with Jun Ziheng's character, he would never go against Second Aunt. She and Jun Ziheng would never have a result. His support and acquiescence was just to gain her trust and closeness. However, her distancing from him tonight still hurt his heart. By the time he left the hall, Jun Zinuo was nowhere to be seen.
