As the richest family in Jiangcheng, the Ji family has its own network of connections and influence, making it easy for them to investigate such matters.
The police did not suspect anything.
Afterwards, Madam Ji was somewhat worried, fearing that Yan Kun and his men would implicate Qi Qi.
Ji Chengfeng didn't seem to care: "Don't worry, Qiqi is still young. Even if Yan Kun and the others confess about her, the police won't believe it. After all, if we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, we wouldn't believe that a child could be so capable."
Madam Ji thought about it and agreed, so she stopped worrying.
The Ji family sent Xiao Pang back to the orphanage.
When the old director saw that Little Fatty had been brought back unconscious, he was so anxious that he almost had a seizure on the spot.
Fortunately, Qiqi comforted him in time, saying that Xiaopang had only been given anesthesia and would wake up in two hours, which relieved the director.
Quickly call someone to come and take Little Fatty back to the dormitory to take good care of him.
He turned around, intending to properly entertain the Ji family, but Ji Chengfeng received a phone call. There was an urgent matter at the company, and he had to rush over immediately.
Mrs. Ji checked the time and realized it was almost time to pick up Xiao Si and Xiao Wu from school, so she took Qi Qi and Ji Zhixu with her and left together.
The dean was very reluctant to part with her and held Qiqi's hand all the way to the gate.
Even after Qiqi got into the car, she still clung to the window and refused to let go.
"Qiqi, when you have time in the future, remember to come back and visit Grandpa Dean."
Qiqi, also clinging to the car window, nodded with teary eyes and fishnet stockings: "I understand, Grandpa Dean, I will definitely come back to see you."
After saying goodbye to the dean, Qiqi and Madam Ji went to the school to pick up the fourth and fifth sons of the Ji family.
Ji Chengfeng didn't get home until around 7 p.m. The Ji family was having dinner, and Madam Ji was about to ask the servants to add an extra set of chopsticks and bowls when Ji Chengfeng said, "I have a dinner party to attend later, so I won't be eating at home."
His gaze fell on Qiqi. "By the way, I want to take Qibao with me too."
"What are you doing taking Qi Bao out so late?" Madam Ji frowned.
Ji Chengfeng smiled wryly: "Today is the birthday banquet of the Jiang family's only son. The Jiang family's only son is about the same age as Qiqi. Bringing Qiqi there is also to help her get along with some children of the same age in the industry as soon as possible. It will also let people in the industry know sooner that Qiqi is a child of our Ji family."
For the elite, status is extremely important.
Ji Chengfeng originally planned to hold a family reunion banquet in a while and invite celebrities from Jiangcheng to attend.
But since he had such a great opportunity tonight, he naturally wanted to let people in the industry get to know Qiqi as soon as possible.
Hearing him say that, Madam Ji nodded without objection.
It would be good if the wealthy circles in Jiangcheng knew as soon as possible that Qiqi was a child of the Ji family.
This will also prevent any unnecessary misunderstandings from arising in the future!
After all, in wealthy circles, it's common for people to fawn over the powerful and belittle the weak.
It would be a real loss if some ignorant people bullied Qiqi.
Around eight o'clock, Ji Chengfeng brought Qiqi to the Jiang family's birthday banquet.
The Jiang family is a prominent family in Jiangcheng, second only to the Ji family. They are a true wealthy and powerful family, and the wealth accumulated over three generations makes them a force to be reckoned with in Jiangcheng.
Tonight's banquet was the birthday party for the youngest son of the Jiang family, so almost everyone present brought along children of the appropriate age from their families.
Ji Chengfeng led Qiqi into the banquet hall. This was Qiqi's first time attending such a grand banquet, even more luxurious and lively than the orphanage's anniversary celebration. Qiqi looked around curiously and was soon attracted by the cooked food and dessert area.
Qiqi had already eaten a lot at home, but now, seeing all the dazzling array of food, she still couldn't resist being attracted.
Thinking of Qiqi's appetite, Ji Chengfeng shook his head helplessly and beckoned his assistant.
The assistant stepped forward and took Qiqi's hand: "Miss, let me take you to get something to eat."
The assistant was Ji Chengfeng's confidant, and he had already heard that Qiqi was a little foodie.
Despite saying she knew, Qiqi suddenly ran up to Ji Chengfeng and hugged his leg.
"I don't want to, I want to be with Daddy," Qiqi said in her childish voice. She could tell that, for some reason, her father was suddenly facing a bloody disaster tonight.
She wouldn't feel at ease if she didn't stay with her father.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chengfeng glanced at Qiqi staring intently at the dessert section, swallowing her saliva, and his heart softened.
"It's okay, Qi Bao and Brother Tang can go eat something, and come back to find Daddy later."
He's probably at this banquet anyway, he won't be going anywhere else.
After saying that, Ji Chengfeng handed her over to his assistant and then walked away.
Qiqi wanted to follow, but Assistant Tang stopped her: "Miss, President Ji has a very important cooperation to discuss. Let's go to the dessert area over there and have something to eat before we go find President Ji."
Assistant Tang was aware of Qiqi's abilities, but he thought that with surveillance cameras on all four sides of the banquet hall, President Ji should be fine on his own.
Qiqi frowned. Surveillance cameras are fine for filming ordinary people, but there are some things they just can't capture.
With no other choice, in order to protect her father's safety, Qiqi had to expend her spiritual power and draw a peace talisman out of thin air.
With a wave of her hand, the amulet disappeared into Ji Chengfeng's body. Only then did Qiqi feel relieved and followed Assistant Tang towards the dessert area.
As soon as she entered the self-service area, Qiqi's attention was immediately drawn to the dazzling array of food, completely forgetting about Ji Chengfeng and his bloody disaster.
She stared wide-eyed in shock at the table full of food: "Brother Tang, can Qiqi eat all of this?"
"Of course!" Assistant Tang was charmed by her big, round eyes and reached out to pat her head. "Miss, you can have whatever you want to eat."
Qiqi: "Is it okay if I eat it all?"
"Eat it all?" Assistant Tang was surprised, his lips twitching slightly. "Well, it should be... fine, right?"
In any situation like this, everyone is only focused on drinking, socializing, and eating; these things are not even on their radar.
However, there are many children tonight, and it's hard to guarantee that other children won't want to eat.
So Xiao Tang didn't rule it out: "But this is someone else's home turf, Miss, it would be better to leave some room for the host to entertain the guests."
He had heard that Qiqi could eat as much as eight people, so he figured even if she ate all of this, it wouldn't make a difference.
Qiqi tilted her head, looked at the exquisitely crafted pastries in front of her, and nodded with a hint of regret: "Okay, I understand."
Afterward, I filled each type of pastry with just one piece, then found a corner to enjoy them.
Before she could even begin to enjoy her meal, an unpleasant voice suddenly rang out.
"Where did this country bumpkin come from? Has he never eaten anything good before? He's utterly shameful!"
