Chapter 2250: 2259: Always Being Pressured to Marry Is Not a Solution

Chi Enen was pulled aside for a long lecture until she nearly raised both hands to promise she wouldn’t drink or entertain conversations, and only then did Bae Chi reluctantly let her go. By the time she got downstairs, the driver had already arrived.

"Young lady."

After greeting her, the driver opened the car door for her.

Chi Enen lifted the hem of her skirt and got into the car.

The car drove all the way to a five-star hotel by the seaside.

Before going, she had no idea what kind of banquet Quan Dongting had invited her to. When the car arrived in front of the hotel, she met Quan Dongting. She noticed a large gathering of media reporters at the hotel entrance, with a long red carpet laid out and a signature board set up.

It didn’t seem like a banquet, more like an awards ceremony with celebrities.

Looking at the red carpet full of reporters, Chi Enen asked the mature and steady man beside her with some headache, "Little Uncle, are we really going to walk down the red carpet to go inside?"

Quan Dongting frowned slightly, his tea-colored pupils glanced over the noisy red carpet, and he calmly said, "No need. We’ll go in through another entrance."

After all, he wasn’t a celebrity and had no interest in being in the spotlight.

Upon hearing that she didn’t have to face so many reporters, Chi Enen’s tense shoulders relaxed. She didn’t like being photographed by so many flash bulbs, especially not this many.

In a short while, a staff member hurriedly came out. After finding them, he respectfully led them in through another direction towards the banquet venue.

As Chi Enen followed inside, she couldn’t resist speaking to Quan Dongting, "Little Uncle, being pressured by Grandma like this is no way to go on. Have you thought about bringing back that female doctor from orthopedics to show Grandma?"

Quan Dongting didn’t expect her to bring this up, and for a moment, his mature and handsome face showed a hint of awkwardness, denying, "She and I aren’t in that kind of relationship you think we are."

"Isn’t that female doctor Little Uncle’s girlfriend?"

Previously, when she accidentally injured her leg and got a fracture in Country T,

Little Uncle took her to that hospital for treatment, and the interactions with that female doctor left a particularly deep impression on her till this day.

Even Hass had mentioned a few times about him and that female doctor.

Anyway, she felt Little Uncle was quite special towards that female doctor.

"No." He frowned slightly, found an accurate term, "Ex-girlfriend."

He turned his head to look at Chi Enen and advised, "Enen, don’t tell Grandma about this. She and I are just exes. I’m afraid Grandma won’t believe it and might go to her workplace and disrupt her life."

"I know." Chi Enen was just concerned about him, but not nosy enough to interfere in his personal life. After gossiping twice, she changed the topic, "By the way, Little Uncle, what kind of banquet is it today, and what do I need to do?"

They were about to go in, and she still didn’t know what kind of banquet it was or what role she was supposed to play later.

"A charity banquet. You don’t need to do anything. Just accompany me to meet a friend, then you can go to the side to have some food, drink some water, and take a rest. Once I’m done socializing, we can leave early."

In fact, he generally wouldn’t attend this level of banquet.

However, since the host of the banquet was a friend he had known for several years, he made time to come over to show some respect. However, even to show respect, he didn’t plan to stay until the end; they could leave after a while.

Chi Enen roughly understood her task, nodded, linked her arm through his, raised the corner of her mouth, maintained her smile, and played the role of his female companion well, softly saying, "Alright."

At this time—

"Duke, Miss, we’ve arrived." The waiter led them into the banquet hall.
