Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Steal the Chicken but End Up Losing the Rice

"Ziiip—" Along with her cry came the sound of fabric being torn.

Ji Kaisui had decided to wear a lightweight gauzy dress today, thinking her tall figure would look particularly graceful in a long gown.

But the thin gauze couldn’t withstand such brute force.

With a bit of strength, Ji Weitian tore open Ji Kaisui’s dress at the neckline, exposing large expanses of her snowy skin, along with the pink lingerie beneath.

Revealed under the bright lights and the gaze of everyone present.

She was utterly dumbfounded.

Ji Weitian, unscathed, stood before her with a feigned look of panic and concern, "Suisui, are you alright? You suddenly tripped me, and in a moment of desperation to stay upright, I didn’t mean to—"

Ji Weitian didn’t finish her sentence, and only then did Ji Kaisui come to her senses, realizing that the guests in the living room, especially the male guests, were all staring fixedly at her chest, and she looked down as well.

The very next second—

"Ah—" Ji Kaisui clutched her exposed chest with both arms, not even bothering to settle the score with Ji Weitian, and ran back to her room crying.

Ji Weitian glanced at her fleeing figure, turned up the corners of her mouth with a smirk of satisfaction.

Isn’t this what they call "trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice"?

Being a good person is important, otherwise, it’s so easy to get retribution!

Ji Weitian clapped her hands gently, turned around, and with elegance and composure, lifted the hem of her dress, descending the stairs step by step.

In the living room, everyone was happily mingling and toasting each other.

Ji Weitian didn’t know anyone there, yet she became the center of attention, with a crowd quickly forming around her.

Standing at the forefront was An Lin, the very man Ji Kaisui had a crush on.

An Lin, flanked by his buddies, held a glass of red wine and stepped forward to greet Ji Weitian.

"Miss Ji, might I have the honor of your company for a drink?" An Lin offered, oozing gentlemanly grace.

With his pedigree and abilities, he was always the one being fawned over in public appearances; this was his first time seeking a woman’s favor.

His buddies stood by, boosting his image, joining in the excitement.

"Miss Ji, you might not be aware since you’ve just returned, but our Lin is the most esteemed young master of the An Family, a man of distinction. The companies he manages earn money for An Corporation like running water."

"Most importantly, our Lin is single and exceptionally pure-hearted..."

"Cut it out, are you introducing a friend or pimping him out? Let me handle this!"

"..."

A few people clamored around An Lin, noisy in their eagerness to introduce him.

Ji Weitian disliked such situations and was about to decline when she looked up and saw Ji Mofeng and Su Sumei standing not far from her, watching her every move as if under surveillance.

If she offended the most privileged young master of the An family, Ji Mofeng might drop dead from a rage-induced hemorrhage on the spot.

Ji Weitian’s eyes slightly lowered, she had a plan in mind.

Considering she had just dealt with Ji Kaisui and was in a good mood, she decided not to provoke her cheap father.

Taking the glass of wine An Lin offered her, she drained it in one go, receiving compliments of ’heroic’ and ’a woman of valor’ from those around her, she bowed slightly, "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

She used the excuse to escape the encirclement.

At the same time, she turned her head, sizing up the attendees at today’s banquet.

According to Leng Jian, Su Sumei had invited all the eligible young talent of the Ji Family to the event and, to avoid suspicion, had also specifically invited many wealthy daughters and ladies from notable families.
