Through the huge floor-to-ceiling window of the private room on the 28th floor, all the scenes in the banquet hall could be seen.

Among them, a graceful white figure was shuttling back and forth among all kinds of people, as if she was looking for something. Her smooth and beautiful long black hair fluttered slightly as she walked, like a fairy that had fallen into the mortal world by mistake, so clean that not a speck of dust could be seen.

“Miss Qiao, you are very smart. ”

She knew that he was referring to the words she said at the banquet that he could not refuse.

“I can’t help it. I’ve eaten too much at your closed door. The only thing I can think of is to come to the banquet to look for you. Mr. Ji, please don’t take offense! ”

The man walked over from the French window, pulled out the dining chair and sat down. He crossed his long legs and took out a cigarette from the cigarette box to light it up. “Miss Qiao has come to look for me several times. What exactly is the matter? ”

“To tell you the truth, late at night the day before yesterday, the person who sent Miss Ji Han who jumped into the sea back to the JI family was me. ”

After he heard that, his cold face was still filled with that kind of unfathomable emotion. No one could understand what he was thinking at this moment.

After a long while, he exhaled a puff of smoke. “How much do you want? ”

Qiao Man’s deep black eyes were tinged with a hint of a smile. Her straight nose bridge and slightly pursed lips unexpectedly formed a confused and innocent expression.

She spread her hands as if she was a little helpless.

“What should we do, Mr. Ji? Our Qiao family has plenty of money. I don’t lack it! ”

JI yunshen slightly raised his eyebrows. The ridicule in his eyes was obvious. “then you didn’t come to me just to tell me that our JI family owes you a favor, right? ”

Qiao Man’s serious and slightly smiling expression surged into the man’s eyes.

Through the light blue smoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly and seriously sized up the woman in front of him.

The upper-class Society had always been spreading rumors about Qiao man having plastic surgery, smoking and drinking, her temper was capricious, her speech was vulgar, her private life was chaotic, and so on.

Seeing her today, it completely proved that a rumor could not be trusted.

At least some of it could not be trusted.

“If the JI family only owes me a favor, I don’t need to look for you, Mr. Ji. I can go look for Old Madam Ji. Relatively speaking, she will give me more than you, right? ”

Ji Yunshen reached out and flicked the ashes from his cigarette. Suddenly, he smiled elegantly. “okay, Miss Qiao, I owe you a favor. What do you want? ”

She revealed a bright and charming smile and said straightforwardly, “I want… the identity of Mrs. Ji. ”

Ji Yunshen’s elegant manner and gentle expression did not change. However, in his indifferent tone, there was a trace of a biting aura that could not be ignored.

“Just based on this… you came to talk to me about the ownership of Mrs. Ji. ”

He lazily leaned against the back of the chair, his eyes deep and his thin lips slightly lifted. “Isn’t Miss Qiao a little too greedy? ”

In other words, in the eyes of Ji Yunshen, who was almost thirty years old and used to seeing all kinds of people, Qiao man was still too young to talk to him about terms.

Qiao man did not care about it. Instead, she tilted her head and smiled. Her voice was soft as she slowly said, enunciating each word, “that night, Miss Ji Han drank wine. She was bewitched and in her daze, what she said was your name, Mr. Ji… ”

Who would have thought that the JI family’s most beloved pearl and the person she liked was actually her brother.

Although the two of them were not related by blood, the more prestigious a family like the JI family was, the more rigid the concept of family status became. She, Ji Han, could be the princess that everyone in the JI family loved, but she could not be Ji Yunshen’s wife.

Just the fact that her origins were unknown could completely push her back to her original state.

There was another point that she believed that Ji Yunshen knew better than she did. If the secret of this unspeakable wealthy family was exposed, it would cause a hurricane-like uproar in the upper-class society.

Even worse, Ji Han, who was only 20 years old, would be embroiled in a scandal of ethics and morality. Her identity as the adopted daughter of the JI family might also be buried along with her, and it would be difficult for her to recover.
