Ji Xizhi was absorbed in the case study, and though she felt soone approaching from behind, she didn’t turn around.
It’s a lounge, so it’s not surprising if soone cos up to take a rest.
To avoid disturbing others, Ji Xizhi politely turned the computer volu to the lowest and occasionally noted down a few words.
Yan Rui was standing behind her, unable to hold the champagne in his hand anymore. His expression had shifted from initial shock to a state of exasperated anxiety!
Ji Xizhi secretly studying was one thing!
But to lower the volu?! He could barely hear, damn it!
The interview content was so rich, not sothing easily obtainable, even Yan Rui himself was unsure if he could manage to find it.
Yan Rui had intended to cause trouble, but after listening to a couple of lines from the interview, his brain automatically began processing like an activated analysis program.
Yan Rui tilted his body, and the champagne in his hand gradually slanted.
Inner monologue: Not wearing glasses today was a mistake! Why is the computer screen so small? Can’t the external sound be louder?
Yan Rui frowned, having barely caught a few words.
When he saw Ji Xizhi in front of him suddenly turn the sound down even more and lean her body a bit more into the sofa.
The sound, the computer screen, all gone!
Yan Rui: "!!"
Don’t move! He was just getting to the point!
In his excitent, Yan Rui didn’t have ti to speak, and the slanting champagne in his hand splashed all over the ground.
As the champagne hit the floor, Ji Xizhi turned her head in surprise upon hearing the sound.
Yan Rui: "..."
"Ji... Ji Xizhi, fancy eting you here, what are you watching?"
Yan Rui steadied himself, his tone gentle as he looked towards Ji Xizhi to ask.
His voice was entirely different from before at the door; now, as soon as Ji Xizhi responded, he could seamlessly discuss the case in the video with her as a senior, while also finishing watching the video.
Unfortunately, Ji Xizhi didn’t bother to acknowledge his question.
Instead, she looked at the puddle of spilled champagne behind Yan Rui.
Ji Xizhi’s expression slightly tightened as she began slowly, "Related cases of the ’Law of Tort Liability,’ if harm is caused in a public setting by a third party’s actions..."
Before she finished speaking, Yan Rui reflexively continued.
"The third party needs to bear the tort liability."
It was only after finishing that Yan Rui realized.
Ji Xizhi had led him right into it!
Looking at Ji Xizhi nodding repeatedly on the sofa, Yan Rui’s face alternated between red and green.
Indeed, if soone got injured later because of the spilled drink, he would be responsible.
But now, with no one else in the lounge and no incident occurring, did Ji Xizhi really need to remind him?
Ji Xizhi must have been in the entertainnt circle for too long, bringing up legal clauses for everything!
Yan Rui chuckled coldly, about to speak up when he heard a female voice coming from the stairs on the second floor.
Imdiately, several elite heiresses in high heels started walking in this direction.
Yan Rui glanced at the not-so-noticeable puddle of champagne, and then at the nearby stilettos.
He turned hurriedly to call for the cleaning staff to co and tidy up the area.
If sothing happened, it would be disastrous!
After finally having the floor cleaned, and upon returning, Ji Xizhi had already finished watching the video on her computer.
After all that fuss, Yan Rui was left with nothing.
Watching Ji Xizhi typing away on the computer, Yan Rui felt a surge of frustration.
Fine, let her study! Let’s see what she can learn!
Clutching his wine glass, Yan Rui turned and descended the stairs.
-
The minor interruption did not affect Ji Xizhi’s progress; she soon returned to her study mode.
anwhile, the banquet downstairs began, and more people had arrived than before.
The reporters outside had also co in for the banquet. Usually, such banquets didn’t involve too many reporters, but this ti, due to Mr. Feng’s return to the country, the Feng Family had invited quite a few reporters.
The reporters carried caras on their shoulders, cautious about what to capture. They mainly photographed the host of the banquet, Mr. Feng, and the young heiresses and noblewon from wealthy families who agreed to be photographed.
But as they continued shooting, the reporters’ lenses involuntarily started searching for Ji Xizhi.
The few photos of Ji Xizhi snapped at the entrance had already been uploaded to Weibo in real ti, sparking a small wave of heated discussions.
In the photos, Ji Xizhi stood between Xue Fan and Chu Ang. Compared to their ticulously grood looks, Ji Xizhi appeared effortlessly casual.
Even her clothes were the sa ones she wore during the morning’s live broadcast of "Life Experience," unchanged.
