The day my remarriage was rejected, I got married to a billionaire CEO

Chapter 17 Accompanying Sister to the Wedding Banquet

Just after five in the afternoon, Xia Xiaojin's car arrived at the parking lot of Longwan Community. She called her sister in the car.

"Sister, it's only five o'clock, isn't it too early?" Xiaoyu hasn't changed her clothes or put on makeup yet.

"I won't go up because I still have to send Duoduo to her dad. You can just come to the basement to find me." Xiao Jin said.

Xiaoyu quickly changed her clothes, put on some light makeup, and went out with Duoduo in her arms.

"Carry Duoduo upstairs by yourself, I'll wait for you in the car. Hurry up, it's already six o'clock." Xiao Jin instructed.

"Okay." Xiaoyu responded to her sister while opening the car door.

"Second sister, what event are you going to attend dressed so beautifully?" Xiaohan asked when she saw Xiaoyu carrying Duoduo in the door.

"I'm accompanying your eldest sister to a wedding. Dad, I'll come to pick up Duoduo as soon as I finish the wedding. Thank you and Auntie for your help." After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

"Second sister, can you take me with you? Let me go out and see the world with you." Xiaohan chased to the door, grabbed Xiaoyu's arm and asked.

"There are only two invitations. They are my eldest sister's clients. She urged me downstairs. Why don't you tell her to bring you along next time there's such an event?" Xiaoyu broke free from Xiaohan's hand and stepped into the elevator.

"Why don't you let me go with my elder sister?" Xiao Han's voice fell and the elevator door closed.

Xiaohan works in a small company and has no chance to participate in such high-end activities. She has just reached the marriageable age and really wants to meet some rich boys and girls.

The wedding was held at the Shenzhen City Hotel. I used to pass by here often on my way to work, but Xiaoyu had never come in.

It is said that Shenzhen Grand Hotel is the most upscale hotel in the city and the only seven-star hotel. Xiaoyu just heard this from her sister, but she had no intention of verifying whether it was true or not.

"I heard from Mrs. Yao that Mr. Ke will also come to the wedding tonight." Xiao Jin said to his sister while parking the car.

"You're a very powerful client since you can invite the prince of the richest man's family." Xiaoyu said as she closed the car door.

"Mrs. Yao said that her son-in-law and Mr. Ke were childhood friends."

As they were talking, the two sisters had already arrived at the entrance of the hotel's wedding lobby.

Xiao Jin took out two invitations from her bag and handed one to her sister.

"When you go in later, just watch more and talk less. Don't be nervous no matter who you meet, just nod and smile. We are out here to have fun and broaden our horizons, so don't pay attention to comments that make you uncomfortable." She whispered to her sister.

After signing, the two sisters walked into the banquet hall arm in arm. This was not Xiao Jin's first time at Shenzhen Grand Hotel. She walked through the crowd with her sister, nodding and smiling frequently.

"Does it look like everyone knows each other? Actually, apart from Mrs. Yao, I don't know anyone else. Maybe I'll meet one or two clients later." Xiao Jin said with a smile.

Compared to her sister, Xiaoyu seemed more reserved. After all, she had been a full-time housewife at home for four years. Before she got pregnant with Duoduo, Zhai Jian would bring her along to events. Since she got pregnant, she has not participated in any social activities except family gatherings.

Xiao Jin handed a drink to her sister, Xiao Yu waved her hand and poured herself a glass of boiled water. She looked around while drinking the water, and then two slim women came towards her.

"Shuya, look." The middle-aged woman in a green cheongsam with dark patterns and a white shawl touched her companion's arm and said softly.

"Ah?" Xiaoyu and another middle-aged woman cried out at the same time.

Xiao Jin's attention was instantly attracted by their shouts. She stared at the woman opposite her who was wearing the same evening dress as Xiao Yu.

"Why are you wearing the same clothes?" the lady opposite in green cheongsam said to her companion.

"What bad luck!" The woman named Shuya looked at Xiaoyu with disdain.

Wearing the same clothes is fine. Xiaoyu was nodding and smiling at the two ladies, but when she heard them say this, her smile froze on her face.

"Ignore them." Xiao Jin gently pulled his sister and motioned her to go aside.

"Shuya, don't be angry. It doesn't look as good on her as it does on you." The woman in the green cheongsam said flatteringly.

Both women were in their forties, with well-maintained figures and skin, and were covered in jewels. If they didn't talk, it would be impossible to tell whose family background was higher or lower.

As soon as the woman in the green cheongsam opened her mouth, the two sisters guessed that her family background was not as good as that of the woman named Shuya.

"This guy should have some self-awareness. He really ruined such a nice dress." The woman in the green cheongsam wanted to please Shuya by making fun of Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu and Shuya were wearing a black, high-necked, long-sleeved, waist-hugging long dress.

The two sisters chose it that day mainly because the skirt is simple and elegant, of good quality, and slimming. The long skirt is dragged straight to her ankles, just helping her cover her "elephant legs".

They picked out a black and white shawl in another store. It didn’t look very beautiful on Xiaoyu, but it did make her look quite noble.

"She's almost walking on the hem of her skirt. I wonder who has no self-awareness." Xiao Jin complained in a low voice.

It is undeniable that Shuya looks better in this skirt than Xiaoyu in terms of waistline.

But this skirt is quite long. Xiaoyu is 1.68 meters tall and she is wearing a pair of eight-inch black high heels today, so the hem of the skirt just falls on her instep.

Shuya is only about 1.6 meters tall, and even though she wore 10-centimeter high heels today, her skirt was still a little long.

The other party did not hear Xiao Jin's complaints and wanted to stay away from the fat man so that more people would not see them wearing the same clothes.

"It's been so long since the event started, why haven't I seen Mr. Ke yet?" a little girl in a white dress at the same table asked a middle-aged woman next to her.

"Maybe Mr. Ke has already arrived, but we don't know him. There are so many tables today, not everyone can see him." said the middle-aged woman.

"Ke Shaoping is usually very low-key. It is said that whenever he attends some important occasions, he is always accompanied by a group of bodyguards. Outsiders cannot get close to him at all." said another lady at the same table.

"Although we can't get close to them, the presence of the bodyguards should have alarmed the entire place. Mr. Ke definitely didn't come today." said the little girl in the white dress.

"Mrs. Yao likes to brag. I guess her son-in-law doesn't even know Mr. Ke." A middle-aged man said.

As everyone was discussing, there was a sudden commotion, and the people near the door stood up from their chairs. Xiaoyu and Xiaojin also stood up, and the two stood on tiptoe to look at the door.

Unfortunately, there were too many people at the scene, and it was pitch black, so no one had any idea what was going on.

"Master Ke is here!" a voice said in the crowd.

Ke Yongxin, wearing a white suit and a black mask, walked into the banquet hall surrounded by a group of black-clad bodyguards.

Even with a mask on, young girls and mothers-in-law were still attracted by his tall and slender figure and his imposing temperament.

As he nodded frequently to the people around him, he inadvertently saw Xia Xiaoyu in a black dress in the crowd.
