"Qiqi, G has never shown her face. Do you think she is a fashion designer or a jewelry designer? I'm really curious about that."
For an ordinary person, they could probably only excel in one of these two fields, since you can't have your cake and eat it too. But G is lucky; he has works in both.
The works in both fields are quite good, and some have even won awards.
Qi Jiu didn't turn around or hesitate. "Yes, they are."
The man watched her profile as she examined the clothes, then pursed his lips. "So tell me, which one is she better at? Clothing or jewelry?"
"Jewelry," she replied without changing her expression.
These answers, given without any thought, made Qi Silin raise an eyebrow, his tone both probing and intrigued, "How did you know? G never appears in public, do you know him?"
The girl stopped looking him over, turned her head to look into the man's deep black eyes, and smiled slightly.
A test?
"I guessed."
Weren't we suspicious of her identity before? Well, let's have some more doubts now.
She smiled like a cat that had just stolen some fish, making Qi Silin's teeth itch with envy.
Don't bully her, this is Qiqi, don't bully her...
What do you think of my guess? Why don't you try to guess too?
Qi Silin: "..."
No, you're very humorous.
On the other side, Lin Yue had just returned home when she saw that her living room was in a mess, with shards of glass everywhere and the once clean floor now littered with debris.
Potted plants, cups, bowls...
A single broom simply cannot clean it properly; even the housekeeper shook her head in disbelief.
Housekeeper: "..."
She looked at Lin's father, who was sitting silently on the sofa, and her heart skipped a beat. She felt goosebumps rise on her arms.
He was used to being arrogant, but now he was still timid in front of Lin's father.
Anyone with eyes can see that the atmosphere in the Lin family is not good, and a storm may be brewing at any moment.
"……dad?"
Lin Yue, who was quite domineering on the phone just now, now has to be very submissive, even speaking in a soft and gentle voice.
If Lin's mother were here, things would be a little better, since she could stop her husband from getting angry. But now, Lin's mother is nowhere to be found.
Lin Yue is feeling incredibly guilty right now.
Sensing movement in the living room, Lin's father, who had been sitting on the sofa, looked up. The moment he saw Lin Yue, his dejected mood was instantly replaced by anger.
Before she could say a word, she saw Lin's father grab the only intact cup on the table and throw it at her with all his might.
Lin Yue: "!!!"
"Bang!"
The glass shattered, sending shards flying everywhere. The glass, which had broken at Lin Yue's feet, caused her to get cuts on her calves from the flying shards.
Bright red blood slowly flowed down the wound, but because the wound was small, there wasn't much blood.
Lin Yue froze, staring at the wounds on her calves, a dull ache slowly creeping in. Her vision blurred without her realizing it, and as she looked at the middle-aged man before her, her emotions slowly building.
Is this still the father who loved her since she was a child? Is this still the father who rarely got angry with her since she was a child?
"Dad! What are you doing!"
The roar echoed throughout the villa. Lin's mother appeared from the escalator upstairs at some point, her eyes red and swollen, clearly having been crying the whole time.
"Lin Wei! Do you have any backbone at all?! Now that something's happened, you're yelling at your precious daughter! Look, Yueyue is terrified!"
Lin's mother pointed at Lin Wei and roared angrily. Lin Wei, who had always obeyed his wife, was now like a straw breaking the camel's back, and he could no longer hold back.
"Shut up! Go back to your room! You're just a woman who doesn't understand anything! What can you do all day besides spend my money? You can't help with anything at the company! Get back!"
Seemingly frightened by Lin Wei, Lin's mother stared in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes, her lips trembling slightly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
But she didn't say anything in the end. With a 'bang' as the door closed, Lin's mother returned to her room and remained silent.
On this side, Lin Yue was startled again.
Since she became conscious, her parents have never had such a serious argument. They used to be a loving family, a model family in the eyes of others. How did they become like this?
Clearly...
"Why?"
Why has our perfectly good home turned out like this?
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Wei almost laughed out of anger, "Why? You posted those photos on Weibo, didn't you? Not only did Shen Cimo come knocking on our door, but the Qi family came knocking on our door too."
He looked at his daughter, whose face showed a hint of guilt, and smiled sarcastically. He had never thought his daughter was so stupid.
"Right now, the Lin family is like ants struggling to survive in the cracks. Do you know how much they've lost in just half a day? When Qin Yao had her accident, I told you not to mess with her! And what did you do?!"
With the Shen and Qi families involved, who would dare to mess with the Lin family? The group they had worked so hard to build was almost wiped out because of this stupid daughter!
Because of the Shen and Qi families, the Lin family's situation has deteriorated sharply in the past half day.
My wife and daughter spend all their time shopping and don't do anything productive! Now that something's happened, all they do is cry! What else can they do?
Isn't every day already enough to make me miserable?
Lin Yue looked at Lin Wei and didn't say anything more.
Her father had indeed told her not to provoke Qi Jiu, and she had thought about it. But was everything she had done wrong?
I just wanted to present the facts, but I didn't expect...
Seeing that his daughter was silent, Lin Wei softened.
"Apologize to Miss Shen, and I won't pursue this matter further."
The mention of 'apology' immediately displeased Lin Yue. She had thought her father was showing consideration for their family, but it turned out it was all about self-interest. "I didn't do anything wrong, why should I apologize?"
Having lived in a wealthy family for over twenty years, how could she not know how murky things can get? As long as you have power, does right or wrong matter?
She is now in a vulnerable position, but she is unwilling to accept it. Was she really wrong?
"Why? Because the Shen family is suppressing us, and because the Qi family is helping the Shen family!" Lin Wei's anger, which had just subsided somewhat, was now flaring up again.
Lin Yue slowly lowered her eyes, her expression unreadable.
Time passed second by second, and Lin Yue finally raised her head.
Okay, I apologize.
It's just an apology, what's so difficult about it? As long as you say "I'm sorry," that's considered an apology, right?
After going upstairs, Lin Yue did not immediately return to her own room, but instead headed in the opposite direction to her mother's room.
