Seizing the opportunity, Ji Yuwei yanked the mask off Jiang Nian's face.
"Oh, I'm sorry, little sister, I lost my balance..."
She looked panicked and spoke very apologetically.
However, the moment he saw Jiang Nian's face, his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.
Almost reflexively, he took two steps back and exclaimed, "You, how come your face is alright?!"
It's better if it's not called that.
As soon as he called out, everyone looked at Jiang Nian's face.
The moment they saw her face, everyone gasped and their eyes widened.
The girl in front of me is so beautiful.
She wasn't wearing makeup as usual; she was wearing light makeup.
Her seaweed-like curls cascaded over her shoulders, and her fair skin shone like solidified cream under the light, flawless.
Beneath her arched eyebrows, her eyelashes curled, and her clear, bright eyes seemed to hold a sea of stars. Her pale cherry-colored lips were soft and moist.
Her exquisite features were ethereal and otherworldly, truly breathtaking. Just a glance from her was enough to make one hold their breath.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Mrs. Si could hardly believe it.
—This is Jiang Nian?! This is actually Jiang Nian?!
Didn't they say this girl grew up in a remote mountain area? How can she have such fair and flawless skin?!
This was nothing like the stereotypical country bumpkin; she was completely different from what she had imagined. With such a bewitching and seductive face, no wonder her son was so captivated!
Song Sichen also took a deep breath.
From the first time he saw Jiang Nian, he thought the girl was very beautiful.
Previously, what attracted him more was the girl's temperament, but now it's the girl's face that is stunning enough.
"Sister, you live under the same roof as me every day, why are you so surprised to see my face?"
Jiang Nian straightened up.
They watched Ji Yuwei's expression change several times in an instant, as if watching a play.
She tilted her head and said, "My sister just said, how come my face is okay?"
"I'm a little curious. My sister originally thought there was something wrong with my face?"
Ji Yuwei took a deep breath.
His whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.
……wrong.
Something must be wrong.
Jiang Nian's face was completely fine; in fact, she had even put on makeup that night.
When she pretended to fall accidentally and reached out to pull her mask, she didn't dodge at all.
She deliberately waited for her to pull her mask off—Jiang Nian already knew that she was going to embarrass her at the banquet!
……how so?
Is it that JN?
Could it be that JN told Jiang Nian about it, making her prepare herself, deliberately tricking her, and setting a trap for her to fall into?!
Ji Yuwei's face turned pale.
He immediately took out his phone, wanting to question JN about what was going on, but suddenly noticed a large red warning symbol on the screen.
She was completely dumbfounded.
The system indicated that her account had been deleted.
—It's not that she can't log in to her account, but that her account has been permanently deleted.
Who deleted her account?
Ji Yuwei almost jumped up.
For privacy reasons, once an account on this platform is deleted, it can never be recovered!
She had just transferred three million to that JN, and there was another two million in the account as a deposit.
Once the account is cancelled, what evidence does she have to get her money back? That two million yuan deposit will go directly to the platform!
That's five million! That's one-fifth of her fortune!
Ji Yuwei's vision went black, and she felt her legs go weak and she couldn't stand up.
But right now, everyone is looking at her.
Because everyone is waiting for her answer.
Everyone heard what Jiang Nian blurted out the moment her mask was removed.
It's a cold, not an allergy.
If Jiang Nian's face had always been like this, why would Ji Yuwei blurt out and ask her why her face was fine?
This is so strange.
"I……"
Ji Yuwei's lips trembled as she put the money aside and tried her best to remain calm.
She forced a smile and said, "What are you saying, little sister? I was asking what happened to your face, not why your face is fine."
"That's because I've never seen you wear makeup before. Just now, at first glance, you looked really different from before, and I was just so surprised that I said that."
Jiang Nian raised her eyes.
The scrutiny in his dark eyes went straight to the heart, causing Ji Yuwei's heart to tremble violently.
"Is that so?" His tone was somewhat cold. "Then I must have misheard you."
"I thought my sister had put some kind of drug on my face, that there was something wrong with my face, and I was so surprised when I found out there was nothing wrong."
Ji Yuwei's face turned even paler, and her voice was weak and feeble, but she forced a laugh: "Haha, little sister, you really know how to joke."
No one else could have imagined that Ji Yuwei would do such a vicious thing to her own sister.
After Ji Yuwei explained the situation, everyone's attention returned to Jiang Nian.
Grandpa Si looked at Jiang Nian with even greater fondness, his tone tinged with envy.
"Old Ji, you're really lucky to have such a beautiful granddaughter."
When Grandpa Ji heard Jiang Nian being praised, he became proud: "That's right, don't you know whose granddaughter this is? Nian Nian also has my blood in her veins and my genes."
Upon hearing this, the person next to him immediately chimed in, "Indeed, Mr. Ji was famously handsome back in the day."
"You know what, this Miss Niannian really does have some resemblance to Old Master Ji back then."
"Blood relatives are indeed different."
...
What was said unintentionally was taken seriously by the listener.
Hearing others compliment Jiang Nian on her resemblance to Grandpa Ji, those words felt like knives, stabbing deeply into Ji Yuwei's heart.
Children born of the same parents will naturally look somewhat alike.
How could someone like her, who has no blood relation to the Ji family and is just the daughter of an ordinary driver, possibly look like a member of the Ji family!
Seeing everyone praising Jiang Nian's beauty, Ji Yuwei was filled with regret.
Why did she impulsively try to pull off Jiang Nian's mask?
Jiang Nian was only slightly eye-catching at first, but now, everyone is staring at her and can't take their eyes off her.
She wanted to embarrass Jiang Nian in public tonight, but instead she lost five million yuan and Jiang Nian stunned everyone, completely overshadowing her. Now no one wants to even look at her.
She schemed and plotted, but ended up being a complete clown and losing utterly!
