Newlyweds got the wrong marriage certificate, and his sweet, delicate wife is experiencing morning s

"I'll call and ask your General Manager Jing."

Since Jiang Momo said she had a meeting to attend, Li Jiuyuan naturally had to verify it.

Jiang Momo panicked immediately; she had been talking nonsense all along.

I lied so that Li Jiuyuan wouldn't overthink things.

If Li Jiuyuan were to find out that she went to the banquet with Li Yunqi, then things would truly become unpredictable.

"What are you doing? I already said it's just work-related, don't make a big deal out of it."

"You called our manager, what will my colleagues think of me? What will the manager think of me? You don't consider my feelings at all."

As soon as Jiang Momo finished speaking, she sat down on the bed in a huff.

What does Li Jiuyuan really think of himself?

Does a child need to be controlled like this?

Li Jiuyuan also realized that his behavior just now was a bit too much. Jiang Momo is, after all, an independent person in the workplace.

Excessive interference from relatives can indeed have a negative impact on her career.

However, her relationship with Jing Tailan was unusual, though Jiang Momo was unaware of it.

If I were to ask Jingtailan about this matter myself, at worst I would be mocked by him.

Just tell them it's such a trivial matter, and they won't bother you anymore, and that's it.

From Jiang Momo's perspective, it was like not wearing a red scarf in third grade – a huge deal indeed.

Li Jiuyuan also wanted to tell Jiang Momo that he was just a little worried about her and didn't mean anything by it.

But when the words are on the tip of my tongue, I don't know how to say them.

"Whatever you want."

Li Jiuyuan picked up his suit jacket and walked out, leaving Jiang Momo alone in the room.

To be honest, Jiang Momo felt really sad that the two of them had ended up like this.

The banquet was held at a luxury hotel on the outskirts of Beijing.

If it weren't for the distance, which would take too much time to go back and forth, and the inconvenience it would be for me to get all dressed up at home before coming here.

Jiang Momo wouldn't tell Li Jiuyuan that she was going on a business trip.

Jiang Momo casually tied her hair up into a bun, which was then adorned with a ring of lace and ribbons.

The hairstyle also incorporates some linen material, giving it a fresh and elegant feel.

For her outfit, Jiang Momo chose a light green long dress that complemented the look; the style wasn't complicated but it was fitted.

With very little exposed skin, coupled with Jiang Momo's slender neck, she looked like an elf who had just emerged from the mountains.

Li Yunqi's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"Jiang Momo, you're still as beautiful as ever."

Jiang Momo was hailed as the campus goddess by many people during her university years.

Jiang Momo has shed her former naiveté and is now more confident and poised in such situations, exuding a unique feminine charm.

Li Yunqi had originally prepared other clothes for Jiang Momo.

A champagne-colored long dress studded with diamonds.

Under the lights, it shimmered like water, its surface sparkling and dazzling.

The matching jewelry was also incredibly extravagant, leading Jiang Momo to remark that it was a charity gala.

What's the point of dressing so flamboyantly?

Moreover, Jiang Momo was not very satisfied with the choice of venue for the banquet.

A perfectly good charity gala was held in such an extravagant and wasteful place.

"You don't understand. People who can afford to attend this kind of banquet must at least be wealthy themselves, otherwise how can they help others?"

Li Yunqi didn't seem to care.

Jiang Momo recalled the days she spent with her grandmother when she was a child, during which she also received help from many people.

If it's appropriate today, it would be a good deed to use one's own money to help children who were like him in the past.

However, Li Yunqi could not possibly put himself in their shoes and understand the situation that was called poverty.

"Let's go."

As Li Yunqi spoke, he took Jiang Momo's hand, and Jiang Momo tried to pull away.

But everyone entered the banquet hall in pairs.

If I were to shake off Li Yunqi at this moment, it would be a huge disrespect to him.

The other party might get angry and do something uncontrollable.

Jiang Momo could only link arms with him at a slight distance.

"Young Master Li, you've arrived. Please have a seat."

Jiang Momo glanced at the other people in the banquet hall. Fortunately, it seemed that none of them recognized her.

The capital city is only so big; if you run into someone you know, things will get complicated.

Are you sure that jade pendant will definitely appear?

Jiang Momo looked through the catalog of items for the charity gala auction, but the jade pendant that Li Yunqi had described in such glowing terms was not on it.

Jiang Momo frowned and asked Li Yunqi with some reproach.

"Of course, such good things wouldn't be listed directly in the catalog, otherwise countless people would come seeking them out. That's called information asymmetry."

Jiang Momo still couldn't quite understand. Logically speaking, the organizers of the gala should have hoped that these items could be sold for more money.

The more people rush to buy this item, the higher the price will go, right?

But she soon realized that the banquet auction was just a formality.

These people had already prepared how much money to donate; the dinner itself was the more important thing.

Everyone treated this dinner as an opportunity to meet new people and exchange information.

Jiang Momo felt increasingly guilty as she stayed longer. Could it be that Li Jiuyuan hadn't been invited to this charity gala tonight?

Although Jiang Momo hadn't been in the industry for long, she had gotten to know some important people through Jingtailan.

Many of these people, who are usually hard to meet even in the industry, showed up.

That jade pendant was passed down from the Tang Dynasty. After changing hands several times, it was previously in the hands of the Li family.

Jiang Momo once saw this jade pendant on Li Jiuyuan's computer and heard Li Jiuyuan say that the jade pendant had once been in his grandmother's possession.

Later, some things happened, and the jade pendant was lost.

He spent a lot of time and energy searching everywhere, but couldn't find it.

Later, the matter was dropped.

Jiang Momo thought that if she could get this jade pendant and give it to Li Jiuyuan, Li Jiuyuan would definitely be very happy.

Maybe then they won't hold it against them for insisting on coming out this time.

"So, according to you, how much would this jade pendant be priced?"

Jiang Momo was also a little worried because she didn't have that much cash on hand; she earned her money through her work.

Compared to the money accumulated by these unscrupulous capitalists, it's like a mayfly seeing the blue sky.

It's not even worth mentioning.

"I already told you not to worry, just get this jade pendant. I'm here to cover for you today, I can afford any amount of money."

Li Yunqi patted Jiang Momo on the shoulder to reassure her.
