Today, the necessity of her attire required her to wear high heels, so with every step she took, she was exceedingly careful.
"Miss Ji, it’s a pleasure to see you again."
Having just escaped the reporters and entered the lobby, two foreign n approached her with slight smiles.
They were the owners of a brand she endorsed, and she nodded to them politely.
The n approached, opened their arms, and respectfully embraced her, which is a normal etiquette internationally.
But dostically...
The man who walked in saw that scene, and his indifferent face instantly clouded over, the hands in his trouser pockets tightly clenched into fists.
"What are you standing here for?" Qi Helian, having dealt with the reporters outside, caught up with Ji Chicheng, and seeing him standing at the entrance not moving, he asked in confusion. Then he followed Ji Chicheng’s gaze.
He saw Ji Anning chatting and laughing with two foreign n.
Sotis she covered her lips with her hand, and other tis she gestured dismissively, engrossed in the conversation.
They were only three or four ters away from her, yet she hadn’t noticed them.
"Ah!" Qi Helian sighed, slowly withdrawing his gaze and said to Ji Chicheng, "You have to get used to it."
As he spoke, he looked back at Ji Anning, by now a young man had replaced the others at her side. She seed repulsed by whatever it was the man said to her, her smile turning into a grimace of distaste.
Suddenly, the man reached out and grabbed Ji Anning’s wrist, and she angrily shook him off.
Qi Helian frowned, a chill flashing in his eyes. He couldn’t help but want to step forward, but considering Ji Chicheng was beside him, he restrained himself.
Looking back at Ji Chicheng, he saw him watching Ji Anning, seemingly detached and showing no emotion.
As calm as a bystander.
"Mr. Ye, please show so respect."
Ji Anning could no longer tolerate the man’s pestering, shrugged him off, and walked away, but he persisted in following her. As she continuously refused him, his deanor grew increasingly sharp and spiteful.
"You’re nothing more than a foster daughter thrown out by the Ji Family, what are you acting haughty for?"
Ji Anning scoffed, "Indeed, that’s why Mr. Ye’s worth is no better; otherwise, why would he bother pestering , a foster daughter ousted by a wealthy family?"
Anyone who could attend this kind of event had at least so renown.
Being the hot topic actress of the mont, she attracted even more attention, and she was not soone who would accept sha lightly.
The man initially intended to insult Ji Anning in front of everyone to regain so face.
Unexpectedly, Ji Anning’s retort not only didn’t restore his dignity but embarrassed him even more.
Looking around, he saw several caras pointed at them. Biting his lip in frustration, he threw the content of the wine glass he was holding all over Ji Anning’s face, "I gave you face, and you get cocky."
Ji Anning couldn’t dodge in ti and got splashed directly.
However, she didn’t hesitate for a second and imdiately raised her wine glass to throw the contents back at him.
The man probably did not expect Ji Anning to retaliate like that; he froze for a mont, then glared fiercely at her, "You little bitch, not even seeing where you are, you dare to lay hands on ."
While grinding his teeth in anger, he rolled up his sleeves and approached Ji Anning with a threatening presence.
Ji Anning stepped back, but her expression remained unpanicked. Instead, her lips curled into a cynical smile, "Mr. Ye’s manners are so poor, perhaps he didn’t study much and hasn’t heard that ’only won and villains are difficult to raise.’ He doesn’t know that in this world, won and villains are the very people you must not offend."
