Being able to match Ji Zhinan's fashion sense proves that she has good taste, but daring to compare herself to Ji Zhinan shows that she is indeed somewhat lacking in intelligence.
"..." Although Ji Zhinan was sharing his story with Gu Yibei in a casual tone, Liang Wanyin still caught the unspoken meaning in Ji Zhinan's words after a few seconds, and her expression immediately changed.
"Ji Zhinan, what do you mean!"
Ji Zhinan raised an eyebrow: "What did I say? Why is Miss Liang so angry?"
"You mean I..." Liang Wanyin was about to say the words Ji Zhinan had used to insult her when she belatedly realized that Ji Zhinan hadn't named anyone at all, and that she was just admitting it without being asked.
She sneered and said sarcastically, "So what if you're engaged? What's there to be proud of? You keep calling him 'my husband,' it's really shameful."
Ji Zhinan wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Compared to some people who have secretly loved my husband for years but haven't even received a glance from him, and who became furious after finding out that my Mr. Gu and I were engaged, how am I being shameful?"
"you!"
The business owners present were all in business; none of them were fools. The moment they heard Ji Zhinan say that someone named "Yinyin" had delivered a suit to Gu Yibei, they guessed that it was Liang Wanyin.
In this situation, rivals are bound to be extremely hostile towards each other.
"Hehe... Mr. Ji, today is a charity gala, everyone is in a good mood, there's really no need for some things to say..."
A CEO who had a good relationship with Liang Wanyin's father came up to protect her.
Ji Zhinan simply raised an eyebrow: "President Yang? What did I say?"
"..."
Mr. Yang was speechless. Ji Zhinan remained calm and composed throughout, showing no anger, saying nothing unpleasant, and certainly not swearing. Liang Wanyin, on the other hand, seemed somewhat embarrassed and angry, speaking impulsively…
Ji Zhinan smiled faintly and withdrew his gaze, then looked at Ji Zhixia behind Liang Wanyin, feigning surprise and saying, "Oh, isn't this Sister Ji Zhixia?"
Suddenly being called upon, Ji Zhixia froze.
Ji Zhinan still had a smiling face, like a wolf in sheep's clothing, looking completely harmless.
"I heard from Xing Fei that after Sister Zhixia's family went bankrupt, she also divorced Young Master Mu, and Young Master Mu's family went bankrupt as well. I was so worried when I heard that. After all, with Sister Zhixia's tendency to cause bankruptcy wherever she stays, I was really afraid that no one would take her in. Seeing that Miss Liang and Sister Zhixia are still like sisters, I feel relieved."
"..." The bosses next to them were speechless.
You acquired Pengfei Group right after it went bankrupt, and now they're building public toilets there; then you acquired Mu's Group after it went bankrupt and turned it into a free public bathhouse. You've heard about that? Isn't all that suffering thanks to you?
And those last few sentences, weren't they subtly implying that Ji Zhixia is now in the Liang family, and that Greenland Group will be the next to go bankrupt?
That girl's words are so hurtful!
Ji Zhixia gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Ji Zhinan, her chest filled with hatred, but she dared not rush up and tear off Ji Zhinan's hypocritical smile.
A tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs!
Back then, Ji Zhinan was just their adopted daughter, destined to be bullied by her! But now…
Ji Zhixia didn't want to see Ji Zhinan's smug face!
Xing Fei, who was standing next to him, was in charge of playing the bad cop. She continued speaking in the same vein as Ji Zhinan.
"Nan Nan, why are you worried about this kind of person? After all, there's a saying in this world: 'A dog bites Lü Dongbin, not recognizing a kind heart.'"
