Chapter 457: A Bet

After two weeks of classes at school, An Yue asked for leave because An Shijue's engagement ceremony was coming soon.

She wanted to delay it for a few more days, but An Shijue called to urge her personally.

In the morning, An Yue started to pack her things, and only packed one bag.

Wang Jiaxin looked at her and said, "Aren't engagements usually held on holidays like October 1st? Your brother picked an interesting date."

An Yue thought for a while and said, "Maybe there are too many people in October."

For An Shijue's engagement, anyone who is invited should come, regardless of whether it is a holiday.

"Then be careful on your way back, and when will you return to school?" Wang Jiaxin asked.

"Come back after October 1st." An Yue replied.

"Remember to bring us some of your specialties and wedding candy." Wu Qian added.

An Yue pondered for a moment, "It seems that City A doesn't have any specialties. I'll take a look when the time comes."

At about ten o'clock, she left school and went to the airport.

It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when she arrived at City A. As soon as she came out of the airport reception, she saw An Shijue and rushed over immediately.

"Brother."

An Shijue watched her approach, took the bag from her hand, and asked, "Are you tired?"

"No, how come you have time to pick me up." An Yue asked with a smile, "Aren't you accompanying Sister Xinjie?"

An Shijue glanced at her and said in a low voice, "Don't you want me to pick you up?"

"No." An Yue shook her head quickly, "I just feel a little guilty."

"Don't feel guilty, let's go, find a place to eat first." An Shijue said and turned to walk forward.

An Yue immediately followed and asked about the details of the engagement ceremony.

An Shijue answered one by one, and it sounded that he knew the entire engagement ceremony very well.

An Yue knew in her heart that her brother valued this engagement ceremony very much.

The two chose a Cantonese restaurant. An Yue didn't eat much on the plane and was hungry now.

An Shijue kept putting food into her bowl, almost making her eat too much.

After dinner, the two returned to the mansion.

Seeing Jiang Xinjie there, An Yue was not surprised at all this time. She greeted Jiang Xinjie and went upstairs.

Jiang Xinjie's attention was all on An Shijue this time, and even her smile when she greeted An Yue was a little forced.

There was some anxiety in her tone, "Shijue, I have something to tell you."

An Shijue glanced at her and turned to walk out the door. Jiang Xinjie followed closely behind.

Suddenly, An Shijue took small steps and said in a low voice: "Have you thought it through?"

"Shijue, this won't work. My parents won't agree, and your grandfather will definitely not agree." Jiang Xinjie said in a deep voice.

An Shijue lowered his eyelids and said indifferently: "It seems that you haven't thought it through yet."

He left this sentence and walked towards the door.

"Shijue!" Jiang Xinjie shouted, "Do you have to do this to me?"

An Shijue didn't say anything and continued to walk forward.

"I promise you!" Jiang Xinjie said somewhat resignedly.

An Shijue looked ahead with cold eyes, "Then do your part."

"Yes!" Jiang Xinjie closed her eyes slightly, looking dejected.

She originally thought that this engagement ceremony would bring glory to the Jiang family, but who knew that this would be the fuse that pushed the Jiang family into the abyss.

She overestimated the cruelty of this man, overestimated her own charm, and underestimated the importance of An Yue in his heart.

But she was really unwilling. Why should she make wedding clothes for others?

She looked at the door in front of her, with a resolute look in her eyes. No, she wanted to take a gamble.
