Vice President Zhou only turned around to observe her . He however, didn’t respond .
It was as if he wasn’t number 15 at all .
Ye Shengge was momentarily stunned . Was she mistaken?
“Our lady is a very beautiful one . ” The emcee smiled and asked Ye Shengge, “Where’s our man?”
Many men present looked down at their own number tags, feeling regretful .
Ye Shengge continued staring blankly at Vice President Zhou . But after sizing her up, Vice President Zhou continued to talk to the people around him, which disappointed Ye Shengge .
Since the man wasn’t Vice President Zhou, Ye Shengge had to say to the host, “Please pick a new number . ”
“No need . ” A deep voice sounded . “I’m number 15 . ”
That voice…
Ye Shengge immediately turned in the direction of that voice .
There was an arched door between the main house and the yard . Because of the banquet, the arched door was beautifully decorated .
The man had just walked out from under the arched door . Under the dazzling light, his handsome face looked even more attractive, but his dark eyes were cold and distant, as if he didn’t fit in the party .
The entire hall fell into a strange silence as everyone held their breaths .
Ye Shengge stared at him in disbelief .
Ji Shiting couldn’t have been angrier upon seeing her expression .
He walked to Ye Shengge and the corner of his lips curled upwards .
“What a coincidence, Miss Ye . ” His voice was ice cold .
“Mr… Mr . Ji…” Ye Shengge’s scalp went numb . “I swear it was a coincidence . ”
“Really?” Ji Shiting looked down at her and put his arm around her shoulders . “I saw you swap numbers with someone while watching upstairs . Heh… What a coincidence . ”
“I did change my number with someone else, but… but because I thought number 15 belonged to someone else . ” Ye Shengge explained . “I’m really not trying to pester you!”
She still remembered what the man had said when he had agreed to give her the lead actress of ‘Xue Ning’ . So how could she dare to pester him like that?
“Someone else . ” Ji Shiting scoffed . “You have many goals . ”
“…” Ye Shengge felt wronged .
Ji Shiting saw how upset she was and couldn’t help grin .
The anger in him dissipated a little .
The music started playing .
Ji Shiting moved his right hand along her shoulder then grabbed her hand . He then put his left hand around her waist while pulling her into his embrace .
“Nevermind . You’re still better than some random woman . ” His deep and cold voice rang in her ears .
Ye Shengge was relieved .
No matter what, it was good that this man wasn’t mad . After all, she had too many objectives to fulfill with regards to this man .
However, she had checked it several times, and it had been Vice-President Zhou on 15 . That was why she had asked to swap number tags .
“Are you… really number 15, Mr . Ji?” Ye Shengge was in a daze . She didn’t even realize that the man’s hand was on the side of her waist .
