eting Ji Weitian’s gaze, she tilted her head up slightly, like a proud peacock, "You wanted to kneel, and I did, is that enough now?"
Ji Weitian nearly laughed out of irritation.
The person who should be apologizing was questioning her with such arrogance, it was as if she had beco the one who made the mistake.
Had Su Sui gotten sothing wrong?
Did she think Ji Weitian was a fool, trying to use her as a stepping stone to gain Ji Mofeng’s sympathy and solidify her status in the Ji Family?
Ji Weitian glanced at Ji Mofeng’s expression, her eyes flickering slightly as she reached out to help Su Sui, while feigning surprise as she spoke.
"Aunt i, what are you doing? I never asked you to kneel before from the beginning to end. I just wanted you to apologize to Qin Nanyu, after all, spreading rumors using soone’s private life is indeed illegal. I was just worried about you, kindly reminding you, that’s all."
"..."
Ji Weitian didn’t give Su Sui any chance to respond and continued on her own.
"Regardless, Aunt i was indeed at fault, but to err is human, to forgive divine. However, as the current matriarch of the Ji Family, this habit of kneeling at every turn really must be changed. Otherwise, if it got out, wouldn’t people laugh at our Ji Family for being spineless?"
"You..."
Such a turnaround left Su Sui sowhat unable to recover.
And then she saw Ji Mofeng’s expression and understood everything.
Ji Weitian had actually learned to be shrewd!
Not only had she not taken the opportunity to mock her, but she had also intentionally shown respect to Aunt i in front of Ji Mofeng.
This made Ji Mofeng think that the earlier kneeling wasn’t Ji Weitian’s doing at all, but that Su Sui had overthought things and had caused the Ji Family to lose face for nothing...
"Mofeng, I was just..."
"Aunt i was just feeling guilty and anxious to apologize, not caring about the Ji Family’s face, right?" Ji Weitian said unhurriedly, each word hitting Su Sui right in the heart.
Su Sui wanted to explain herself, but Ji Mofeng’s expression had already turned cold.
If she clarified in her rush now, the more she said, the more mistakes could be caught. She needed to calm down and wait for Qin Nanyu, this potential threat, to leave, and then she could find a way to win back Ji Mofeng’s heart.
Su Sui’s gaze shifted lightly as she suddenly turned to Qin Nanyu, "Young Master Yu, you asked to apologize and I did, you asked to kneel and I did. Can we consider the scandal settled now?"
"The apology was due, kneeling or not is a reflection of your own sincerity. I certainly never forced Lady Ji to kneel to anyone," Qin Nanyu spoke slowly and deliberately.
Su Sui’s face turned white, "What do you an by that?"
"Since it was supposed to be an apology, whether or not to forgive is naturally up to to decide." Qin Nanyu’s gaze rose slowly, glancing at Su Sui with a subtle smile playing on his lips, each word carefully enunciated.
"I just feel that Lady Ji’s apology just now seed sowhat insincere, maybe she would like to try again."
"..."
Such shaless and harsh words, coming from Qin Nanyu’s mouth, sohow didn’t feel out of place at all.
Su Sui couldn’t contain her frustration and stood up from the ground, "Are you playing with ?"
"Why, can’t Lady Ji endure this bit of grievance? When stirring up trouble online, didn’t you feel all-powerful?" Qin Nanyu returned her impotent rage with a cold sneer.
So people are just like that; behind the safety of the internet, everyone is a warrior of the keyboard.
