Ji Zhinan entered Ji Pengfei's study. It was so quiet in the study that even a pin drop could be heard.
Ji Pengfei was sitting on a chair in his pajamas, seemingly unaware that Ji Zhinan was standing there, and was busy with his own things.
Ji Zhinan was not in a hurry and just stared at him silently.
After a long time, Ji Pengfei finally looked up, staring at Ji Zhinan with his emotionless eyes.
"What are you doing lately?"
It's rare to hear him express concern for Ji Zhinan.
However, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Ji Zhinan spoke in a calm tone, which was considered well-behaved.
"I'm preparing to study for graduate school, and... I'm also waiting for my dad to arrange a job for me to study at the company."
Ji Pengfei's eyes flashed, and he automatically ignored the next sentence, and asked again.
"Why are you suddenly thinking about studying for a master's degree?"
Ji Zhixia didn't like studying, so she dropped out of school after graduating from university and had no plans to pursue further studies; Ji Zhinan graduated from university at a young age, and logically had a bright future. However, Mrs. Ji was afraid that Ji Zhinan's education level was higher than Ji Zhixia's and her daughter would suffer, so she resolutely refused to let Ji Zhinan continue studying, which resulted in Ji Zhinan only having a university diploma now.
Fortunately, she is only twenty years old, so it is not too late to study for a master's degree at this age.
Ji Zhinan stood straight, his eyes blank and indifferent: "Books are not only life, but also the source of cultural life now, in the past and in the future."
“…”
Ji Pengfei choked and coughed: "Yes, it's good to read more. You are not that old, so it's good to focus on studying."
"That's not the case, actually." Ji Zhinan raised his lips and said, "Just studying is useless. You also need practice. They say practice makes perfect. I'm waiting for Dad to arrange a job for me in the company so that I can practice and train myself."
Ji Zhinan can't help but talk about going to the company.
Ji Pengfei pretended not to hear and changed the subject: "I heard from your sister that you know the founder of the luxury brand Queen, the international designer Elsa?"
He asked directly, without any reservation.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Pengfei stared at Ji Zhinan with his eagle eyes, not missing her every move. Ji Zhinan's little thoughts could not escape his eyes.
Ji Zhinan didn't want to escape either. He met his eyes without panic, calm and composed: "I can't say I know him."
“…”
"I just happened to pass by Queen's store while shopping a few days ago. Coincidentally, the designer Elsa was there. She thought I had a nice temperament, so she asked me to try on her signature Queen piece. I was kind of a free model."
Ji Zhinan briefly explained in a few words why he appeared at the banquet, why he was wearing the Queen's treasure, and why he knew Elsa.
If I had been a free model, all this would have been explained.
The banquet was indeed grand, but it was easy for someone of Elsa's status to attend.
After hearing Ji Zhinan's explanation, Ji Pengfei was a little disappointed. He thought that this girl had hooked up with some big shot.
But then he thought again, Ji Zhinan is cowardly and incompetent, and very timid. What great abilities can his useless adopted daughter have?
Thinking of this, Ji Pengfei felt relieved. It seemed that his wife and Xia Xia had overthought it. Ji Zhinan was nothing.
Seeing Ji Pengfei visibly relieved, Ji Zhinan raised the corners of his mouth in a mysterious smile.
Sure enough, it was because of that matter.
