As Bai Qingzhi lay on the bed, thinking about what had just happened, a bright smile still lingered on her face.
Bai Qinghuan in the other room was also awake, her hands flying across the computer she had brought.
"This time, I won't let anyone bully you again!" In the darkness, Bai Qinghuan's eyes shone with an alarming light.
In fact, she had already died once, but for some reason she was reborn in the year she had just returned to the Bai family.
In her past life, those people targeted those around her in an attempt to get rid of her. Since the Bai family was deeply entrenched and they couldn't touch them for the time being, they turned their attention to Bai Qingzhi.
Originally, she didn't have much affection for this adopted sister; she was just someone who often followed behind her, didn't like to talk, but was stubborn.
Kyoto has many families, and countless wealthy clans, so some people look down on her, a young lady from a small town.
But Bai Qingzhi, who was as timid as a mouse, dared to fight with those arrogant young ladies and even dared to talk back to those sarcastic noblewomen.
She failed to save Bai Qingzhi in her past life, but this time, fate has given her a new chance. She will definitely not make the same mistake again...
Bai Qingzhi slept very well that night, her dreams filled with sweet smiles.
The Bai family had already spread the news when they found Bai Qinghuan, so the day after Bai Qinghuan returned, the Bai family directly invited all the wealthy families in the capital to a banquet.
The banquet was held at the most luxurious hotel in Kyoto, and the entire eighth floor was booked by the Bai family.
Luxury cars lined the entrance, and there were countless handsome men and beautiful women. Bai Qingzhi stared at her sister sitting in front of the dressing mirror, her eyes widening once again.
Her simple mind still couldn't comprehend how such a beautiful woman could exist in the world...
Seeing Bai Qingzhi's blank expression in the mirror, Bai Qinghuan couldn't help but laugh.
At that moment, Bai Qingzhi felt as if she were seeing fireworks exploding before her eyes!
After hesitating for a long time, Bai Qingzhi quietly took a breath and stepped forward while the makeup artist was away.
"Sister, many people will be coming today, including quite a few noble ladies. Please be careful..."
Fearing that Bai Qinghuan might misunderstand her as mocking her, she quickly added:
"Some of these noble ladies are very wicked and will deliberately embarrass you."
Bai Qingzhi frowned as she recalled what had happened to her.
It's no secret that she's not a member of the Bai family. Although the Bai family still treats her the same way, there are still some people who are secretly trying to sabotage her.
After all, the wealthier people are, the more they value lineage.
"Your older sister is back. From now on, I'll protect you."
Clearly, Bai Qinghuan also knew about Bai Qingzhi's situation. Recalling those disgusting faces, her eyes flickered a few times.
The moment Bai Qinghuan slowly descended the stairs, all the spotlights shone on her.
She was like a fairy who had stepped out of a dream, instantly captivating everyone's attention.
Originally, Bai's father wanted the two of them to appear together, but Bai Qingzhi refused, as it was her sister's big day and she couldn't get involved.
As I was looking around, several women walked over to me without me noticing. They were all dressed in the same fine clothes and adorned with jade, but their faces were not very pleasing.
“Look, the ugly duckling will never become a swan. Now that the proper young lady is back, if it were me, I would have packed my bags and left long ago!” Wang Jie said to Bai Qingzhi with her group of followers.
Bai Qingzhi gave her a cold glance without answering. This had happened many times before, and she knew that the more she spoke, the more arrogant these women would become.
"She really is a worthless person, she can't even say a word!" Wang Jie was a little angry. The reason she was targeting Bai Qingzhi was entirely out of jealousy.
She thought she was pretty, but the boy she liked always chased after Bai Qingzhi, and what's worse, Bai Qingzhi ignored him!
Bai Qingzhi completely ignored her, letting it go in one ear and out the other, not even glancing at her out of the corner of her eye.
Just as Wang Jie was about to continue her sarcastic remarks, a male voice suddenly rang out.
Bai Qingzhi was startled when a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder. She turned around and saw that it was Bai Qingyu.
"Miss Wang is someone who can be considered respectable; the whole circle knows about her," Bai Qingyu said casually, her tone full of sarcasm.
A few years ago, Wang Jie was having a lot of fun outside, and it was exposed one time. Although the Wang family suppressed it later, everyone knew everything they should and shouldn't know.
Wang Jie blushed instantly upon hearing Bai Qingyu's words, and before she could say anything, Bai Qingyu beat her to it.
"Also, I wonder how Chairman Wang educates his children. I heard that the Bai and Wang families have a collaboration recently. I wonder what the outcome will be."
Wang Jie fell silent instantly. If she offended both families' businesses because of this, her father would probably beat her to death!
"Thank you, Third Brother." Bai Qingzhi was closest to Bai Qingyu at home, so she smiled more often when facing him.
"You silly girl, she said that to you, why didn't you fight back! Next time someone insults you, just hit them back. If anything happens, your third brother will take responsibility for you!" Bai Qingyu patted his chest and said.
"Third Brother, you're the best!" Bai Qingzhi smiled and took her third brother's arm, her bright eyes sparkling under the light.
Seeing the deep affection between the siblings, Bai Qingze, standing on the other side, blinked a few times, then walked to his elder brother, who was talking to others, and spoke softly:
"I heard that the Bai family and the Wang family are discussing a collaboration recently?"
Bai Qinghuai was not fond of talking, and his personality was somewhat like his father's, with a cold face all day long.
"What's up?" Bai Qinghuai raised his wine glass to the other person.
"I heard that Chairman Wang has a daughter whose reputation isn't very good." Bai Qingze smiled with a slightly roguish charm.
Bai Qinghuai's gaze accurately caught Wang Jie on the other end, and his mind raced, quickly forming a general picture of the situation in a few seconds.
"The cooperation between the two companies involves a wide range of aspects, and I need time to investigate."
Bai Qinghuai spoke calmly, his voice flat and even.
Bai Qingze pursed his lips slightly, and was about to leave when Bai Qinghuai spoke again.
"After careful consideration, the Wang family is indeed not a good partner. If they can't even educate their daughter, their company probably isn't much better either."
Bai Qingze left satisfied, as if nothing had happened.
Wang Jie had no idea what kind of losses her words would bring to her family...
The Bai family is very protective of their own.
Bai Qinghuan spent the entire night dealing with various noble ladies under the guidance of her mother. Just as she was about to reach her limit of patience, the banquet ended.
Everyone left satisfied. For these businessmen, this was not just a simple gathering, but also a great opportunity to expand their network and develop their businesses.
The luxury cars left one after another. Bai Qingyu had drunk a bit too much and was dragged back by Bai Qingze.
Bai Qinghuan refused her parents' request and planned to take her younger sister home with her.
