Chapter 173: Backstabbing Brother with Fake Gold (11)
Chapter 173: Backstabbing Brother with Fake Gold (11)
The Ji family’s family reunion party will be held at the end of the month.
Those invited were all well-known figures in City A, from the political and business circles, as well as friends of Ji's father and mother who were outstanding in their respective fields.
The banquet was held at the Ji family's villa.
It was not arranged in the old house.
On the day of the banquet, everyone who received the invitation came with gifts. The banquet was grand, which was enough to show how much the Ji family valued their biological daughter.
Everyone in the Ji family was busy entertaining their friends at the banquet, while Grandpa Ji was sitting in a special seat chatting with a group of other old men.
As the protagonist of the banquet, Ji Yuewen naturally needs to get to know different people with Ji's father and mother.
Introduce her to friends from all walks of life, so that it will be easier for her to get around in the future.
It was rare that Uncle Ji's family did not cause any trouble. Perhaps they had been warned by Old Man Ji, so they were all very well behaved.
Yu Quying joined the group of ladies to chat.
Uncle Ji is also looking for business partners to reminisce about the past.
Ji Chutang didn't know what to do at the banquet. He Xiaoxiao was sick and didn't come to the banquet, as well as the other friends who were his usual friends.
Ji Chutang didn't care about it at this moment.
She understood the nature of these guys and knew that they might try to trick her in person, so she naturally didn't want to make trouble for herself.
The party was boring.
Ji Chutang planned to quietly take a detour and sneak back to his room from the other side so that he would not be easily seen by others.
However, she did not expect that there are people everywhere who will laugh at others behind their backs. Even in someone else's home, the crickets started to laugh at people.
In front of the banquet corner where Ji Chutang was about to take a detour.
There were a few young women standing there chatting, all of them were the daughters of certain companies.
It's just a small business that has some cooperative relationship with Ji's. When these women saw her before, they were all fawning and flattering her, and their mouths were more talkative than anyone else.
Unexpectedly, the cricket man behind the scenes is also quite skilled.
They didn't notice that there was someone standing in the space blocked by the small garden at the back, talking nonsense and looking very proud.
"I didn't expect that Ji Chutang is a cuckoo that has taken over the magpie's nest."
"Yes, the eyes of those who are usually so high and mighty are now on the top of their heads."
"You still look down on us. Now I don't know who is more despicable."
"When do you think she will be kicked out of the Ji family?"
"In my opinion, it will be over soon. Who can stand her bad temper? Before, I thought she was my own child and there was no way I would throw her away. Now, I'm afraid she has become disgusted with me."
"Yes, didn't you see that the Ji family couldn't wait to announce the identity of the real daughter? She is so many times better than her."
"If it's fake, it's fake. Even if it flies on a branch, it's still a sparrow."
"Hahaha--"
……
They talked about and mocked Ji Chutang unscrupulously, and their words were more unpleasant than the last and unbearable to hear.
Ji Chutang almost bit his teeth off, and his hands clenched into fists unconsciously.
I have to say, to some extent, they really understand her very well. She has always had a bad temper and has been spoiled since childhood. She likes what she likes and hates what she hates.
She never tries to hide her true temper, but with the Ji family as her backer, no one dares to comment or lecture her about her temper.
Except for her family, but her family also spoils her.
Before this, Ji Chutang would have rushed out and shouted at the security guards to kick out these gossipy women who liked to gossip about others behind their backs.
However, this time, Ji Chutang did not do so.
Instead, he tried his best to suppress his anger.
She knew very well that this was Ji Yuewen's family recognition party, and she must not let it be ruined, otherwise her parents, brother and grandfather would be very disappointed.
And she knew that what they said was nonsense.
Mom and Dad will never abandon her.
She had to believe what they said and not be provoked by other people's nonsense.
Ji Chutang convinced herself to suppress her inner uneasiness. She was not as sensitive as she was when she first learned that she was a fake daughter, although she was still uneasy.
But in comparison, she has made considerable progress, which is tantamount to growth.
Originally, Ji Chutang thought that he would gradually get used to the feeling of being talked about by others.
But she believed that her family would not let her down. After those gossipers gradually saw the attitude of the Ji family, they would no longer laugh at her and talk about her at will.
And this requires a process.
However, this idea did not last long.
Ji Chutang suppressed his anger, took a detour from behind the small garden, prepared to cross the edge, and then go around the small door behind the Ji family's study.
This way I can quietly go upstairs to rest.
Without being discovered by others.
However, just as she passed by the study, she heard a familiar voice coming from inside the study.
She didn't want to listen and wanted to just bypass it.
It was the voice of Uncle Ji Er, and he seemed to be talking to Father Ji. Their conversation was nothing more than Uncle Ji Er asking for favors from Father Ji.
Or some trouble will occur again.
Ji Chutang is already very familiar with this process.
But when she was about to leave, she heard Uncle Ji say her name.
Curiosity made her stop.
However, the next sentence that came out of the study made her terrified and her face turned pale in an instant.
In Ji Chutang's ears, Uncle Ji's voice sounded aggressive, and one could feel how hateful he looked just from hearing it.
"In my opinion, we can let Chu Tang go for marriage. Since she has enjoyed the prosperity and wealth of our Ji family, she should take responsibility when the Ji family needs her."
"It's not unfair to her to marry into the Yun family. We can easily take over the Yun family's project."
"She is not a member of our Ji family. She has enjoyed the prosperity and wealth brought by her family for so many years. Now, we can find a good family for her. It's already good. She should be content and secretly happy."
Uncle Ji's words always implied that Ji Chutang had taken great advantage of the Ji family, and that Ji Chutang should repay the kindness.
But Ji Chutang was not stupid. She could understand that he wanted to use her to gain benefits, and he even made up a plausible excuse for himself.
Then Ji's father's voice was heard again.
"Second brother, we have our own considerations. You don't need to worry about it."
"Oh? If you don't want to marry into the Yun family, do you have other candidates?"
Ji Chutang couldn't bear to listen any longer. He couldn't stop feeling wronged and his sadness was like a dam about to burst.
She could no longer help but feel resentful, and could no longer convince herself, because she heard it clearly.
So much so that she covered her mouth and ran away.
I didn't even hear clearly what Ji's father said next.
She only knew that her nominal father was conspiring with her second uncle to take her away for personal gain.
Why do they?
Is it because she is not of the Ji family's bloodline? But being taken away by mistake was not her intention.
This is really unfair.
