C16 Danger Is Everywhere

Her cold gaze fell upon her as if she was looking at a stranger, "Miss Qi, we grew up together, not only childhood sweethearts, but also neighbors."

The ones who were in love with each other were childhood sweethearts, but the ones who knew each other were called neighbors.

Lih Lengjue's sharp words made Qi Ruixin speechless. Ji Wanzhi stood by the side and held back her laughter. It was especially hard for her to hold back her laughter.

Usually, it was not good to be scolded by Lih Lengjue, but it was really good to watch Lih Lengjue scold others.

This man's venomous tongue was really not something an ordinary person could parry.

Qi Ruixin's pretty face turned green and white, as if she did not expect Lih Lengjue to be so heartless.

Not daring to do anything to Lih Lengjue, Qi Ruixin's anger was all vented on Ji Wanzhi, "It's all your fault! If not for you, how would I be hated by Brother Jin?"

Ji Wanzhi was surprised, saying as if Brother Jin Yu liked you very much.

From the beginning to the end, Lih Lengjue didn't even look at you directly, alright?

This lady, how long do you want me to put on an extra show for you before you wake up?

Ji Wanzhi did not know how many times she felt speechless. In any case, she could be considered to have experienced what the weirdos around Lih Lengjue looked like.

If it was her, she probably would not have a good expression either.

"Miss Qi, I think your brain is a good thing. You should have one too." Ji Wanzhi spoke slowly and her bright eyes directly looked past her. Clearly, she did not take her seriously.

Of course, Qi Ruixin was not one of them.

It was not until Qi Ruixin was so angry that she stomped her feet and ran away that Ji Wanzhi came to Lih Lengjue's side, "Director Lih did not go and coax your childhood sweetheart?"

The man coldly glanced at her. "You really want me to go?"

The cold and suffocating pressure on her body seemed to be reminding Ji Wanzhi to think carefully before speaking.

Ji Wanzhi sensibly shook her head. Her words were not sincere. "I do not wish for Director Lih to stay with me. It would be best if you stayed with me."

Hurry up and leave. Staying with him made her feel uncomfortable.

It was obvious that the heavens did not hear Ji Wanzhi's begging. Lih Lengjue also acted like a perfect boyfriend and stayed by Ji Wanzhi's side.

It was not that Lih Lengjue wanted to, but that he had to stay by Ji Wanzhi's side.

He once again used a sharp gaze to push back the man who wanted to approach Ji Wanzhi to hit on her. Lih Lengjue had started to regret dressing Ji Wanzhi up so beautifully more than once.

Beautiful things could not be hidden. Furthermore, it was a beauty like Ji Wanzhi. Her delicate and perfect facial features and the appropriate makeup accentuated her ethereal and elegant temperament. The wine-red formal dress made her skin seem as if it was creamy, and under the warm light, it gave off a charming light.

She was like an elf who had gotten lost in the forest. When Gu looked back, his eyes were filled with dissolute charm. His clean and otherworldly temperament made people involuntarily set their eyes on her, and they couldn't help but want to get closer.

Lih Lengjue held Ji Wanzhi's hand and walked past all kinds of people. He brought her to a corner, and his voice was cold and somewhat unhappy. "Are you very proud?"

"Ah?" Ji Wanzhi did not understand." Director Lih, what are you doing this for? What am I proud of?"

She really did not understand this man more and more. He was temperamental and did not understand what he was thinking at all.

So many men looked at you. Don't tell me you don't like it?

In the end, Lih Lengjue still did not say those words. His cold and sharp eyes stared straight at Ji Wanzhi.

Ji Wanzhi looked at him without fear, "Director Lih, just say what you want to say. I am not a roundworm in your stomach. I can't guess what you are thinking."

What she said was the truth, but it still made Lih Lengjue angry.

Before the man opened his mouth, an old voice with a smile sounded, "Little Li, why didn't you come and chat with me, the old man? Did you forget about me?"

Looking at the direction of the voice, Seventh Old Master walked over with the help of others, smiling. His hale and hearty appearance could not be seen that he was an old man in his 70s or 80s.

"Seven elders," Lih Lengjue said respectfully to Seventh Old Master. His usually cold and handsome face softened a lot, and there was a smile on his lips. "I just got settled. I haven't had the time to visit you yet."

The internal affairs naturally referred to the time between him and Ji Wanzhi.

Hearing what he said, Seventh Old Master's gaze naturally fell on Ji Wanzhi.

"This little girl looks really good." Seventh Old Master's gaze unnoticeably paused on Ji Wanzhi's face for two seconds before he happily said. "I just don't know which family she is from. She looks so good. The old man should have seen her before."

A flash of light flashed across his turbid but not yellow eyes, and then he returned to his calm state.

If he wasn't mistaken, this girl was somewhat similar to his old friend.

"Hello, Seventh Old Master. I have long heard of your great name. Today, I see that you are indeed extraordinary. " Ji Wanzhi smiled and spoke in an official tone. Her voice was neither hurried nor slow. Her gentle voice carried a sense of neither servile nor overbearing. It made people feel comfortable but not disgusted at the same time. "I am just a child of an ordinary family. I can't be said to be the daughter of that family."

There seemed to be a kind of reassuring smell on her body. No matter what she said, it made one subconsciously want to pay attention to what she was saying.

"An ordinary family?" A flash of surprise appeared in Seventh Old Master's eyes, and he quickly understood. "It's not easy to be together with this child, Little Li. I wonder if you have seen the parents?"

Meet the parents?

Ji Wanzhi, who was already unwilling to accept this contract, naturally did not think of meeting the parents. Lih Lengjue also did not mention these things.

She subconsciously looked at Lih Lengjue. The latter naturally took over the topic, "Not yet. We'll talk about it later."

It was not too late to bring it back after he slowly pulled out the wild cat's claws one by one.

"This girl fits my eyes. I just don't know what her name is." Seventh Old Master didn't ask any more questions.

"Ji Wanzhi." Ji Wanzhi smiled.

Ji Wanzhi... Wanzhi...

Seventh Old Master repeated the name several times. It sounded familiar but he could not recall it.

"Seventh Old Master, the auction is about to start. Do you want to go and host it?" Qi Yunran quickly walked to Seventh Old Master's side and said in a low voice.

Qi Yunran, Seventh Old Master's eldest grandson, was also the most powerful heir to the Seven Great Families.

He raised his head and nodded at Lih Lengjue as a greeting.

"Then I'll go over first. Little Li, bring the late girl over later." Seventh Old Master instructed, and then he left with the help of Seven Comet Flame.

"Okay, take care." Lih Lengjue naturally agreed.

The highlight had finally come.

Lih Lengjue looked at Ji Wanzhi meaningfully. The main reason he brought Ji Wanzhi here was because of this charity auction.

Who exactly are you? In the end, you have to give yourself away.

Ji Wanzhi, who had sneaked to the side to eat the pastries, did not know that danger was slowly approaching her. Her half-narrowed eyes were filled with joy.
