The rich and powerful: Don't go too far, the president

Chapter 153 Engagement Ceremony
Ji Xiangnuan lowered his eyes, thought for a while before seriously answering: "Now I just want to live a quiet life, and I don't want to be known by others. Besides, my face is full of injuries now. How can I meet people in public? I don't want to Make you lose face."

"About the first point you said, no media will be there that day, and the second point, I don't care, what are you afraid of?"

Di Li's last rhetorical question made Ji Xiangnuan speechless. Through these three months of getting along, she really felt that his kindness to her had reached a level that she could not bear.

"Di Li, I beg you 'don't be so nice to me, really..." She covered her face and murmured, her voice full of pleading.

Di Li's heart tightened, and it hurt without hesitation.

Has his kindness to her become a burden to her?

Obviously his intention was not like this, he just wanted to make her happy, that's all.

"If you don't want this ceremony, then...cancel it." It took him a lot of effort to say those two words. He had prepared for so long, but he didn't know that he would end up like this.

Ji Xiangnuan was very embarrassed, scratched his hair in embarrassment, and suddenly regretted running over to tell him this.

She stood there in embarrassment, her pink lips moved, and then said in a low voice: "I know that in your capacity, it must be luxurious and high-profile. If you are in a difficult situation, you should continue with the original idea."

After her words fell, Di Li inexplicably chuckled twice, but the laughter was mixed with too many incomprehensible complications.

"You're wrong, I'm not doing it for my own identity at all." He stared at the smooth desktop and said as if talking to himself.

Ji Xiangnuan seemed to understand the meaning of his words, his eyes dodged twice, and he deliberately changed the subject and said: "It's noon, let me go and see if lunch is ready?"

After finishing speaking, she walked towards the door as if fleeing, but unexpectedly, his voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"How long are you going to guard me?"

Hearing this sentence, Ji Xiangnuan's back froze suddenly. After a while, she turned her head and said with an innocent smile, "I didn't guard against you!"

"No?" Di Li raised his eyebrows, got up and walked in front of her, saw her hand clenched subconsciously, held her wrist and raised it, and asked coldly, "Do you still dare to say?"

Ji Xiangnuan was wronged, he had nothing to say, and only looked at him with twinkling eyes.

Di Li liked her clear eyes the most, but he couldn't bear them the most. When she stared at him with those innocent eyes, her heart instantly softened unbelievably.

"The engagement ceremony will be held as usual." After speaking, he pulled her out of the study.

Ji Xiangnuan obediently followed behind him, knowing that he seemed to have angered him just now, so he didn't dare to say more.

In fact, she should trust Di Li 100%, at least no matter what he does, it is impossible to harm her.

Soon came the day of the engagement ceremony.

Seven o'clock in the evening, Empire Hotel.

Thirty experts with extraordinary skills were arranged near the hotel to prevent any influx of reporters and enemies.

One after another, the world's top luxury cars parked at the door one after another, and all the people who got out of the cars were famous big shots.

The hotel's outer hall is completely surrounded by champagne roses, and the strong scent of flowers fills the night, adding a sense of luxury and romance.

In the hall, it is even more resplendent and magnificent, with glass reflecting colors. Under the gorgeous crystal chandelier, a champagne tower taller than one person is horizontal in the center. The beautiful light is projected down, and the light projected by the wine glass complements each other, exuding soft dream and nobility. breath.

Celebrities from all walks of life in gorgeous clothes shuttled back and forth among the crowd, holding goblets, greeting each other, talking and laughing happily.

In order to protect Ji Xiangnuan's safety, Di Li didn't let her show her true face. Both of them wore human pi masks. When introducing their identities, he also announced to everyone that her name was Ji Youran.

There was continuous applause off the stage, and everyone was curious about the identity of the heroine on stage.

I saw that she was wearing a noble and elegant silver fishtail dress, her hair was coiled up high, and a few strands of black hair were hanging casually from her temples, carrying a breath-taking beauty.

One of them is like a sculpture of a god, with a cold and arrogant temperament, and the other is like a fairy descending from the earth, with a smart, playful but gentle beauty.

Standing together, they are enough to envy Baihua and make everything around them eclipse.

They are destined to be the focus of the crowd.

However, their hearts are not close, he loves her, but her heart is tied to another man.

The engagement banquet went on very late, and Ji Xiangnuan left in the middle. After being driven back to Di Li's villa by the driver, she went directly to her room and filled a bathtub full of hot water.

The tense nerves slowly relaxed, and the fatigue of the whole body was relieved.

After taking a bath for about an hour, Ji Xiangnuan put on his pajamas and went out of the bathroom.

Looking at the time, it was almost early morning, but Di Li hadn't come back yet.

Thinking that he would definitely drink a lot of wine in order to deal with those guests at the banquet, so Ji Xiangnuan specially cooked for him to make hangover soup, thinking that he could drink it when he came back.

Finally, more than 20 minutes later, when Ji Xiangnuan was leaning on the sofa and was about to fall asleep in a daze, he suddenly heard a rush of car horns.

She opened her eyes reflexively, got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, opened the heavy curtains and looked outside, the bright light made her a little bit dizzy.

Immediately afterwards, the car drove to the underground parking lot behind.

After confirming that it was Di Li's return, Ji Xiangnuan quickly warmed up the hangover soup and placed it in a conspicuous place, then quietly went upstairs, crawled into his bed, and prepared to sleep.

It may be because of being too tired from busy work this day, so Ji Xiangnuan fell asleep right away, and the moment his head touched the pillow, he didn't know what eve it was.

After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt that someone was gently hugging her into her arms. The cold embrace dissipated the heat from her body, very much like the feeling someone gave her.

She thought she was dreaming, and murmured softly while she was sleepy.

"Lu Jingchen..."

Hearing the name spilling out of her mouth, Di Li's back stiffened, and a chill gradually crept up.

Sure enough, even if she was taken out of China and escaped from him, she still missed him in her heart.

Then why is he still here to be affectionate?

It's ridiculous, just now when he saw the bowl of hangover soup on the table, there was still infinite hope and emotion in his heart.

Maybe for her, it was just a way of thanking him in return.

Di Li smiled bitterly, put his arms on the bed, and was about to get up to go out, but Ji Xiangnuan turned over at this moment and hugged him tightly.

"Achen, I miss you so much." She murmured, like a dream but not a dream.

The moment she spoke, Di Li felt that his heart had been cut out by life.

He looked up at the ceiling, forcing back the damp heat in his eyes.

Suddenly, Ji Xiangnuan rubbed into his arms again, like a cat, relying on its owner.

That was a side of her that she had never shown in front of him. Whenever she faced him, she always had a casual yet vigilant attitude.

Di Li made up his mind for a long time and was not willing to push her away, even if he was just a stand-in at the moment, he was willing.

Time flowed slowly every minute and every second. Outside the window, the silvery moonlight shone in through the dense branches and leaves, and cast mottled shadows on the bed, falling on his body, outlining a feeling of loneliness.

Unknowingly, the sky gradually dawned, Di Li stayed up all night, and his eyes were darkened.

He really couldn't resist the drowsiness, so he avoided Ji Xiangnuan's stomach, carefully pushed her away, and then tucked her in again.

He leaned over and stared at her eyes for a long time, finally couldn't help it, and dropped a light kiss between her brows.

Di Li understood how deeply she influenced him, because just watching quietly like this, he felt as if his heart was filled with something, although it was painful but very satisfying.

It's a deadly contradiction.

A few minutes later, Di Li walked out silently and closed the door gently.

When a maid saw him coming out of Ji Xiangnuan's room, he was still looking tired, with ambiguous colors in his eyes.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like an excessive indulgence!
"Hello, my lord."

The maids bowed to him.

Di Li nodded lightly, glanced back at the door of Ji Xiangnuan's room inadvertently, and told them: "Later, make some nutritious dishes that Young Mistress likes to eat, and send them to her room."

"Yes, my lord."

"Go down." After speaking, Di Li strode towards the opposite room.

He and Ji Xiangnuan had been living in separate rooms before, which had aroused Min Shangtian's suspicion. Now that the two of them are engaged, if they continue like this in the future, sooner or later they will reveal their secrets.

It seems that he needs to find some time to discuss this matter with Ji Xiangnuan.

Ji Xiangnuan slept until eight o'clock in the morning. When she got up, it was already daylight. She yawned, got off the bed carefully, and went into the bathroom.

However, at this moment, she found that the table in the living room next to her was filled with exquisite and delicious breakfast.

I also know that Di Li must have specially ordered the kitchen to prepare this for her.

It took him a month to thoroughly explore her tastes, and from then on, he let the kitchen cook for her in different ways all day long according to her preferences.

For Di Li's carefulness and patience, she really didn't know what to say, sometimes, it made her feel uneasy to accept it.

Ji Xiangnuan sighed helplessly, ate a little after washing up, and forced himself to drink a glass of milk.

For the sake of the baby in her womb, she also needs to take good care of her body.
