Chapter 21 Transmigrated as the Father of the Real and Fake Heiresses
"Oh, how come they let just any Tom, Dick, or Harry into the Ji family's banquet?" the girl said to Li Tian with ill intent.
"Yeah, you weren't kicked out of the Ji family? I heard Guan Manyue say she saw you when she was buying bags, but I didn't believe it." The woman looked her up and down. "I didn't expect it to be true."
"You're not working as a maid in the Ji family, are you? I heard before that your mother was a nanny."
Guan Manyue watched the commotion from the sidelines, but she and her little follower remained silent.
Li Tian didn't want to confront them; if it were Ji Nanzhi, she would have the confidence to retort.
As I was about to turn and leave, someone stopped me: "Where are you going?"
"We're all old friends, haven't seen each other in so long, why don't we catch up?"
Li Tian was angry: "This is the Ji family home!"
"What's wrong with the Ji family? Are you surnamed Ji?" Guan Manyue couldn't help but laugh.
"You..." Li Tian glared, still wanting to leave before they did, but the others stopped her: "We said we were catching up, why are you leaving?"
Ji Nanzhi and her sisters from the Ji family stood on the sidelines watching the commotion.
Li Tian was annoyed that they kept staring at them.
"Aren't you just trying to ridicule me? Although I'm not the real daughter of the Ji family, I was raised by them for seventeen years. You'll get what's coming to me when I go back."
"What else do you want to do besides saying tough things?"
"No one in the Ji family, except for Ji Lin, wants to talk to you."
As they spoke, their gazes fell on the gift box in her hand: "Is this a gift for Grandpa Ji?"
"You still have money?"
Guan Manyue: "Perhaps it was Young Master Ji who paid the bill?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh as they talked, basically surrounding her and mocking her. Li Tian's face was almost as red as her dress.
Many people were eager to see her make a fool of herself, and no one was willing to help her out.
She offended too many people in the past because of her status.
Ji Lin, standing next to Grandpa Ji, saw Li Tian surrounded and frowned. Just as he was about to go over to check on her, someone mentioned him.
“Young Master Ji is truly a remarkable man; he has established himself in the company at such a young age.” The speaker was Madam Fang, who frequently collaborated with the Ji family.
"Not at all, still just a greenhorn?" Ji Huaizhi chuckled politely.
When Mr. Fang brought up Ji Lin, Old Master Ji said, "I remember Mr. Fang has another daughter, right?"
Mr. Fang introduced the girl next to him with a smile: "This is my daughter, Fang Shan, who is now a jewelry designer."
"I just like to write and draw on paper."
The girl had excellent manners and greeted the old man and Ji Huaizhi with a smile: "Hello, Grandpa Ji and Uncle Ji."
Grandpa Ji nodded: "President Fang has really done a good job raising her daughter. I wish our Ji Lin had a daughter as composed as you."
Ji Lin's head was still tilted to look ahead.
Li Tian seemed to be in a difficult position with them, and some people even held her back, preventing her from leaving.
Ji Huaizhi looked at him, his voice somewhat serious: "Ji Lin."
Ji Lin immediately turned around and greeted him: "Ah? President Fang."
Mr. Fang remained unfazed: "We're not at the company, just call me Uncle Fang."
"Uncle Fang," Ji Lin called out, but his mind was clearly elsewhere.
Grandpa Ji frowned, and before he could speak, Ji Lin said to him, "Grandpa, I'll be leaving for a bit."
Ji Huaizhi glanced at his hurried back and then gave Assistant Zhou a look.
Assistant Zhou found Ji Nanzhi, who was watching the show: "Miss Nanzhi, President Ji wants you to come over."
Ji Nanzhi put down her cup and went over.
As soon as Ji Lin arrived, he saw Assistant Zhou taking Nan Zhi to her grandfather's place. Turning around, he saw Ji Huaizhi introducing Ji Nan Zhi to someone else.
I didn't think much about going to see what was going on with Li Tian.
"Mr. Ji, you were just praising my daughter. Your Nanzhi is very well-behaved too." Mr. Fang's impression of Ji Lin had already soured.
However, Ji Huaizhi's daughter was quite likable.
"Daughters are less troublesome than sons." Ji Huaizhi was also very happy to hear others praising his daughter.
"Indeed, my son was quite well-behaved when he was little, but I never expected him to become such a bookworm as he grew up." Although Mr. Fang was belittling his son.
But the pride on his face was very obvious.
Ji Huaizhi: "I remember your son is doing scientific research?"
Mr. Fang smiled broadly: "I don't know what he's researching either, and I wouldn't be willing to ask him to come back and help me."
“Young people think differently from us,” Ji Huaizhi said with a slight smile.
"President Ji, I remember we talked at the dinner table before that when the children grow up, we would become relatives and even become in-laws."
Ji Huaizhi: "How can something that's said while drunk be considered valid?"
"Hey~ even if you're drunk, it still counts," President Fang joked with Ji Huaizhi.
Ji Huaizhi said to his daughter, "Why don't you take Shanshan out to play? She might get bored if she stays with us."
Adults chat, and children also need social interaction.
Nan Zhi was chatting politely with Fang Shan when she looked up and saw that Fang Shan's gaze was fixed on Ji Lin and Li Tian.
Fang Shan came to her senses and smiled sheepishly: "Actually, the Ji family and the Fang family had intended to arrange a marriage before, either with my brother or with me."
“But I think your son already has someone he loves.” She said, glancing in Ji Lin’s direction.
Ji Nanzhi paused for a moment, then said, "You've misunderstood. You should also know about the matter of the real and fake heiresses in the Ji family before. That girl in the red dress was from the Ji family before..."
Fang Shan tilted her head: "I know about this, but I don't feel that Mr. Ji treats that girl like a younger sister."
Ji Nanzhi looked over and saw that a dispute seemed to have broken out over there.
"It seems like he's standing up for his girlfriend." Fang Shan pondered, "Should we go take a look?"
Ji Nanzhi nodded.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two walked over, they saw Guan Manyue accidentally knock over the gift box in Li Tian's hand.
A medical report and a pregnancy test fell out.
Everyone present was astonished.
I never expected someone would put these two items in a gift box.
People couldn't help but wonder, if Li Tian gave this as a gift to the old man, whose child was she carrying?
Ji Lin felt that all eyes were on him.
Guan Manyue was also startled when she saw what was on the ground; she had only wanted to embarrass Li Tian.
But she didn't expect that this thing would make the Ji family lose face today. Sweat began to bead on her forehead. She felt like she had made a big mistake today.
Ji Huaizhi helped the old man over, and the banquet became very quiet for a moment.
The old man looked at the things on the ground and said, "The guest dropped something, hurry up and pick it up for the guest."
The old man's voice was authoritative, which made Ji Lin tremble.
