Han Meiyue pinched herself hard, squeezing out a few tears. "Ji Zheng, I'm sorry, I just returned to China a few days ago and I haven't adjusted to the time difference yet. I was a little dizzy just now and accidentally fell."
She sat on the ground with an apologetic look on her face; her pink dress was stained and soaked.
Today is Grandpa's 70th birthday, and Ji Zheng doesn't want anything to go wrong.
She helped Han Meiyue, who was sitting on the ground, up. "Get up first."
With tears in her eyes, Han Meiyue apologized again, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to. The doctor said I have low blood sugar."
Ji Zheng said calmly, "Since you're feeling dizzy, go home and rest early."
Han Meiyue forced a smile, "Please wish Grandpa Ji a happy birthday for me, and I'm sorry I can't personally deliver his blessings."
Ji Zheng replied politely, "I thank you for your blessings on behalf of Grandpa."
"Okay, I'll head back now. We can meet up again sometime." Han Meiyue took a step and cried out in pain, "Ouch~, I think I twisted my ankle."
Ji Zheng glanced at her and said, "I'll call a doctor for you."
"No, no need." Han Meiyue took her hand. "Ji Zheng, take me to the second floor to rest for a while. My dress is dirty, and I don't want too many people to see it."
"I'll have my family driver pick me up after the banquet, so you don't need to bother."
"Is it okay, Ji Zheng?"
Han Meiyue took her hand and acted coquettishly.
This moment felt like stepping back into college, when they attended classes and ate together, their relationship even closer than that of sisters.
Ji Zheng agreed, "I'll take you to the lounge on the second floor."
The first floor is the main hall, and several rooms are set up on the second floor for guests to rest.
The two slowly went upstairs, with Chu Ling following behind.
Han Meiyue limped and leaned on Ji Zheng.
“I really miss university. Back then, I didn’t have to think about anything. I could just go through a few classes every day and have a blast, unlike now where I have to think about marriage and my future.”
Ji Zheng gave a faint "hmm," and asked, "Are you doing alright abroad?"
Han Meiyue's expression stiffened. "It's fine. My dad can't control me, so I'm very free, but I don't have many friends."
Her eyes reddened slightly. "Ji Zheng, I miss you so much. Are we still good friends?"
Ji Zheng looked straight ahead and said, "We've arrived."
She, Han Meiyue, and He Ting can never go back.
Ji Zheng is now the CEO of the Ji Group. She prioritizes the interests of the Ji family in everything she does, and love and friendship only affect her career.
Han Meiyue clenched her fingers, furious.
Despite her excellent performance, Ji Zheng completely ignored her!
Han Meiyue forced a smile. "Thank you for your trouble."
Ji Zheng pushed open a door and helped her inside, while Chu Ling stood guard at the door.
Han Meiyue was too embarrassed to speak, "Do you have any clean clothes? It's uncomfortable to be all wet."
Ji Zheng said softly, "Sit down for a while, I'll get you some clothes to change into."
Just as she was about to leave, Han Meiyue's tone suddenly changed, "Ji Zheng, don't go, the show is about to begin."
Ji Zheng frowned slightly. "What do you mean?"
Han Meiyue sneered and snapped her fingers, "Gumiye..."
As a series of chanting-like words entered her ears, Ji Zheng felt weak all over and collapsed onto the sofa, while Chu Ling also felt weak all over and collapsed to the ground.
Both of them were unable to move. Ji Zheng's pupils shrank sharply. "Han Meiyue, what are you doing!"
Han Meiyue quickly snatched the two phones away, exaggeratedly covering her mouth, "Ah! Ji Zheng, what's wrong?"
Ji Zheng felt dizzy, and her cheeks flushed an unnatural red. She tried to stand up but couldn't muster the strength.
This reaction is very much like being under some kind of drug. She clearly didn't drink that glass of red wine, so why is she like this?
Han Meiyue looked down at her and said, "Ji Zheng, I've put up with you for a long time. I was the one who confessed to He Ting first, and I was the one who fell in love with He Ting first. What makes you think you can be with him!"
Ji Zheng let out a sigh of relief. "He Ting doesn't like you. If you're so capable, go find him!"
Han Meiyue became even angrier when she thought of He Ting. "That man only has eyes for you. I gave so much for him and lost my innocence because of it, but he didn't even look at me."
“My father abandoned me and sent me abroad. Do you know how miserable my life was abroad?”
"It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"
Han Meiyue was furious. She grabbed Ji Zheng's chin tightly and scrutinized her face inch by inch.
"Ji Zheng, I'm jealous of you, I'm insanely jealous!"
"You are the only eldest daughter of the Ji family, while I am a pawn disliked by my father!"
"You're always surrounded by many men, but the man I've fallen in love with loves you!"
"I hate you, I absolutely hate you!"
Ji Zheng became increasingly dizzy and gradually could no longer see the people in front of her.
She managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Han Meiyue, you're sick! Instead of taking revenge on your father, you hate me. I regret being friends with you the most."
"I am indeed sick, and you've driven me to this!" Han Meiyue patted her face. "Ji Zheng, you won't be laughing for long."
Ji Zheng asked hesitantly, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Han Meiyue laughed loudly, "In a moment, everyone will know that the eldest daughter of the Ji family did that kind of thing with her bodyguard at Grandpa's birthday party."
Ji Zheng's heart tightened.
No wonder she and Chu Ling both felt weak and hot at the same time; Han Meiyue actually had such an idea.
Ji Zheng forced herself to calm down, "Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Ji family? Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the police? It's not too late for you to stop now."
Han Meiyue scoffed, "Ha! Don't try to scare me. The police will never find out."
This is not medicine, but a sacred object.
What are the police anyway? Master Jiang is the strongest person in the world.
Han Meiyue scoffed, "Ji Zheng, after tonight, you will no longer be the high and mighty young lady."
