This provocation was blatant.
Ji Weitian slightly lifted her gaze, looking at Ji Kaisui, who was coldly smiling at her, and Ji Mofeng, whose face turned displeased because of that remark.
Her dear sister, still with an innocent look, pretended she had merely misspoken, comforting Ji Mofeng on her behalf, "Dad, don't blame Sister. Jiangcheng University is a prestigious school, so many academic elites have come from Jiangcheng University. President Qin of Qin Technology Group is the prime example. With Sister's abilities, it's already difficult enough for her to land a job similar to a gofer at Jiangcheng University."
While speaking about how hard it was for Ji Weitian, she actually implied Ji Weitian's mediocrity, suggesting that even at a prestigious school, she could only manage a menial position.
She would never reach the top in her lifetime!
Seeing Ji Mofeng's face grow extremely unsightly, Ji Kaisui then hypocritically suggested, "Dad, why don't you arrange a position for Sister at Ji Family's company? At the very least, it would ease her burdens a bit, and people wouldn't mock the Ji family's eldest daughter. Maybe then the Chen Family wouldn't insist on calling off the engagement with us."
This remark was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Ji Mofeng had called Ji Weitian back specifically for the marriage with the Chen Family, and Ji Kaisui's words were like touching his raw nerve with a sensitive subject.
Ji Mofeng turned to glare at Ji Weitian without a word, his voice sinking, "You've brought disgrace to the Ji family's name all by yourself. How dare you come back?"
Hearing the duet of father and daughter, Ji Weitian almost laughed in anger, deliberately following Ji Mofeng's words, "If Dad doesn't want to see me so much, then I'll just leave today."
With that, she turned to leave.
She had barely taken a step when Ji Mofeng's roar rang out, "I brought you back to apologize to the Chen Family. You haven't even met them yet, where are you going?"
Ji Weitian turned back with an innocent face, "It's Sister who's engaged to the Chen Family. If she's already comfortable acting coy in front of Dad, why shouldn't I be comfortable coming back? Speaking of which, Sister was cultivated by Dad's own hand, well-cultured and well-mannered. If she goes to fulfill the marriage arrangement with the Chen Family, they would surely agree with joy. Sister, wouldn't you say that's right?"
Is it just acting?
Who was Ji Weitian afraid of? She didn't even take Qin Nanyu seriously, let alone these paper tigers of the Ji family.
Just because she had a good temper, they actually thought she was easy to bully, pushing every limit without regard.
"You... Dad, don't listen to her nonsense. I'd rather die than be with that wastrel Chen Xu!" Ji Kaisui didn't expect Ji Weitian, who seemed like a pushover, to gain the upper hand with a few words. Worried that Ji Mofeng might actually follow Ji Weitian's suggestion for the sake of business, she was so frightened her expression changed, and she quickly started to criticize Ji Weitian.
A gentle voice, however, cut her off.
"I wondered why the house suddenly became lively, turns out Weitian's back." Su Sumei came downstairs and greeted them with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.
Walking up to Ji Mofeng, she reached out and took his arm, "You really are something, picking fights with the kids at your age. If Weitian is disobedient, just teach her slowly. Don't let it ruin your health, it's not worth it!"
"Mom, don't speak up for her. Dad was about to be angered to death by Sister just now." As soon as Ji Kaisui saw Su Sumei, she, like a headless fly finding support, gained confidence again.
