Chapter 75 The Emperor's Selection of a Concubine Is Just Like This
Ye Shengge's heart suddenly rose to her throat. Could it be that her position as the heroine was really no longer guaranteed? Ji Shiting clearly promised her, and she kept her promise and did not pester him...
She recalled her recent contacts with Ji Shiting, and she couldn't help but feel guilty. Those... shouldn't be considered entanglements, right?
Just when she was restless, Xu Xiangjie handed a gold-plated invitation letter to her: "Here, take this."
Ye Shengge came back to his senses, took the invitation, opened it, and his eyes suddenly widened: "This is...the invitation to the Ji family's dinner tomorrow."
"Yes." Xu Xiangjie said with a smile, "I am too old to join in the fun, so I gave it to you after thinking about it."
"Director Xu, how do you know I don't have one?" Ye Shengge suddenly became suspicious.
If Xu Xiangjie looked at her differently because he misunderstood that she was Ji Shiting's person, then Xu Xiangjie would have taken it for granted that she had an invitation letter.
Instead of being so sure she didn't.
Although Xu Xiangjie was always calm, he was also stunned by her question. Fortunately, he was stunned for only two seconds and then smiled: "I just heard the conversation between you and Mu Xiaoya, so I did this as a favor."
"Director Xu, you should know by now that Mr. Ji Shiting and I are not in that kind of relationship, otherwise I would not have no invitation letter." Ye Shengge was still aggressive, "Even so, do you still want to do this favor?"
"Yes." Xu Xiangjie said calmly, "I saw your potential when we took the makeup photos that day, so I am willing to do this favor regardless of whether you have a backer or not."
This explanation makes sense.
Ye Shengge finally smiled: "Okay, thank you, Director Xu."
"You're welcome." Xu Xiangjie sent her away with a smile.
Unexpectedly, this girl was quite clever, and she was almost discovered.
If he fails in this matter, the big boss will definitely be angry.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiangjie quickly edited a message and sent it: the invitation letter has been sent successfully.

The next day, the Ji family's old house.
The sky was full of stars tonight and the temperature was suitable, so Uncle Jin simply held the dinner in the yard.
At this time, the backyard was brightly lit and decorated, and well-trained waiters were placing exquisite snacks and expensive drinks in categories.
Guests arrive one after another. Each guest will get a number plate when entering, male guests will get blue and female guests will get red. Both red and blue number plates have one hundred numbers starting from 1.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the yard gradually became lively.
…
In the study room on the second floor of the main house, Qiao Yanze stood at the window and looked down for a while, then said with a bad smile: "Shi Ting, come over and take a look. All the famous ladies from Yangcheng are here, and they compete with each other in beauty... …Tsk, tsk, this is all for you.”
Yu Shuhang also laughed: "In ancient times, this was the only way for emperors to choose concubines, right?"
Ji Shiting was sitting on the sofa, flipping through a book carelessly in his hand. Hearing this, he gave them a cold look: "Why don't you go down and entertain us?"
If these two people go down, they will still be targeted by these ladies.
"Haha, let's forget it." Yu Shuhang said calmly.
Qiao Yanze raised the corners of his lips, his peach blossom eyes full of teasing: "I can't imagine that you would agree to attend such a dinner based on your temperament."
Ji Shiting said nothing. He put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked to the window.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Xie Siqi, who was wearing a formal dress and smiling brightly, was helping to receive guests in a half-master manner.
As expected, it is inseparable from her.
A flash of sarcasm flashed across Ji Shiting's eyes.
