Chapter 323 Meet in the evening
Ji Wan nodded slightly. She would naturally not forget such an important matter.
When He Wanqing saw him leaving, the smile on her face froze, and a hint of anger flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "That's such a pity. I look forward to the next opportunity."
Chi Wenyan ignored her, said goodbye to Fu Qichuan and left the box.
He Wanqing stood there with an awkward smile on her face, but her eyes were full of resentment and anger.
She looked at Ji Wan, the hostility in her eyes almost bursting out.
Ji Wan looked back calmly, but was thinking in his heart.
What kind of disguise will Chi Lin reveal during his meeting with Chi Wenyan at 8 o'clock tonight? What kind of crisis is hidden behind the Qihai project?
Moreover, she became more and more convinced that He Wanqing's entanglement with Chi Wenyan was not just a personal obsession, but there was probably a deeper motive behind it.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the box suddenly became awkward.
He Wanqing stood at the door, watching the man's back as he walked away. The smile on her face gradually froze, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyes.
"Miss He," Fu Qichuan broke the silence, "Since Mr. Chi has left, why don't you take a rest as well? See you at the dinner tonight."
He Wanqing nodded reluctantly, "Okay, Mr. Fu."
She turned her gaze to Ji Wan, with undisguised hostility in her eyes, "Ms. Ji, congratulations on your two wins today."
Ji Wan smiled calmly, "Thank you, I'm just strong."
He Wanqing sneered, turned around and left the box.
Fu Qichuan poured a glass of champagne for Ji Wan. "Ignore her. Jealousy makes people ugly." He raised his glass to greet Ji Wan. "Ms. Ji's performance today was indeed impressive. I look forward to meeting you tomorrow."
"Me too, Mr. Fu." Ji Wan responded politely, but he was thinking about how to keep his appointment with Chi Wenyan.
After a few glasses of champagne, Ji Wan looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Fu, it's getting late. I should go back and rest. I have an important meeting to prepare for tomorrow."
Fu Qichuan nodded in understanding, "Of course, Zhou Yan will take you back."
"No need to trouble you, I drove here by myself." Ji Wan declined.
"How can this be possible?" Fu Qichuan insisted, "You just experienced such a thrilling scene and were injured. It's safer to let Zhou Yan take you."
Seeing Fu Qichuan's insistence, Ji Wan had no choice but to agree.
After saying goodbye to Fu Qichuan and other guests, she and Xia Guoguo followed Zhou Yan out of the box.
"Let's go to the racecourse gate. My car is parked there." Ji Wan said to Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan nodded and led the way silently.
The three of them walked through the magnificent racecourse hall and were about to walk out the gate when Ji Wan suddenly stopped.
"Zhou Yan, I remembered I left something in the locker room. Can you and Xia Guoguo wait for me in the car? I'll go get it."
Zhou Yan hesitated a little, "Do you need me to accompany you?"
"No need, I'll be back soon." Ji Wan smiled.
After Zhou Yan and Xia Guoguo walked away, Ji Wan immediately changed direction and walked quickly towards another exit.
She needed to get rid of Zhou Yan and keep her appointment with Chi Wenyan on time.
But something occurred to her and she changed direction.
At the same time, in a quiet corner of the racecourse, Chi Wenyan and Sheng Yanjing were talking in a low voice.
"I didn't expect He Wanqing to be so brazen." Sheng Yanjing shook his head. "She actually invited you in public. Isn't she afraid of being rejected?"
Chi Wenyan smiled coldly, "She thinks she has the bargaining chips in her hands."
"Bargain?" Sheng Yanjing raised an eyebrow. "Are you saying she claimed to be the woman that night?"
Chi Wenyan nodded, his eyes cold. "She claimed that she was drugged at a wedding I attended, and I 'took care' of her."
"Oh my god," Sheng Yanjing's eyes widened. "How could she come up with such a lie? The woman that night was clearly..."
"Hush." Chi Wenyan interrupted him, "This matter is not suitable to be made public yet."
Sheng Yanjing shut up tactfully, but soon couldn't help asking, "So what are you going to do with her?"
"I will try my best to compensate her." Chi Wenyan said calmly, "After all, she was indeed hurt, but it was not caused by me."
"You're always like this." Sheng Yanjing shook his head helplessly, "It's clearly not your responsibility, but you're willing to take the blame."
Chi Wenyan did not respond, looking into the distance, "It's getting late, I should go."
"You're going to meet Miss Ji at the 'Moonlit Night' cafe tonight, right?" Sheng Yanjing said with a meaningful smile.
Chi Wenyan smiled indifferently, said nothing, and turned away.
In the racecourse parking lot, He Wanqing walked towards her car angrily.
What happened today was too embarrassing. Not only did she lose to Ji Wan in the competition, but she was also rejected by Chi Wenyan in front of everyone.
Thinking of this, she wished she could tear Ji Wan into pieces.
Just as she was about to get on the bus, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way.
"He Wanqing, let's talk." Ji Wan's voice was calm and firm.
He Wanqing narrowed her eyes. "Ji Wan, what else do you have to say? Isn't today's victory enough to satisfy you?"
"I want to ask you, why did you pretend to be the woman that night?" Ji Wan asked directly.
He Wanqing's face changed, then she regained her composure, "What woman? I don't know what you are talking about."
"Stop pretending," Ji Wan sneered, "You claimed to be the woman who was drugged at the wedding, and claimed that Chi Wenyan 'took care' of you."
He Wanqing's eyes widened. "How do you know..." She immediately realized that she had spoken out of turn and quickly changed her words. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Because the woman that night was me," Ji Wan looked directly into her eyes, "you are an imposter."
He Wanqing froze in place, her face turning pale. But she soon regained her composure and even smiled slyly.
"So what?" He Wanqing said provocatively, "Do you dare to publicly declare that the woman that night was you? Do you know what this means?"
Ji Wan looked at her coldly, "I'm not afraid of scandal."
"It's not about the scandal," He Wanqing's voice suddenly turned sinister. "If the truth were to be revealed, do you know what the consequences would be? Businesses won't allow such a scandal to exist. They'll kill you to silence you."
Ji Wan sneered, "Do you think this kind of threat will work on me?"
He Wanqing took a step closer. "Not just you, but your family as well. Your mother is in a mental hospital, and your grandmother just got released. If something happens to you, who will take care of them?"
Ji Wan's eyes instantly became sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath. "He Wanqing, how dare you threaten my family?"
"This isn't a threat, it's reality," He Wanqing sneered. "A smart person knows what to say and what not to say."
Before he finished speaking, a loud slap landed on He Wanqing's face.
“Pah.”
The crisp sound echoed in the parking lot.
He Wanqing covered her face in disbelief, her eyes full of shock.
"You...you dare to hit me?"
