Tan Jiang originally intended to imdiately berate Lin Shiyu, but upon hearing this voice, she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue and turned her gaze toward the source of the voice.
Ye Xunhuan also wanted to leave, as Lin Shiyu's words had angered him, but before he could say anything, soone else spoke up first, causing Ye Xunhuan to look toward the source of the voice as well.
The newcor was dressed in a red belted trench coat and straight black pants, perfectly showcasing the woman's figure.
Seeing this woman, Wang Zilin timidly called out, "Sister Chu..."
This woman was none other than Chu Ji, who had given Wang Zilin the dress and shoes!
Chu Ji smiled gently at Wang Zilin and said, "Little girl, why are you so timid, when you have him backing you up? At this party, who can't you step on!"
As she spoke, Chu Ji walked over to Wang Zilin's side, reaching out to fondly stroke Wang Zilin's little head, showing a very protective deanor.
Although this was only the second ti Chu Ji had t Wang Zilin and she didn't know the exact relationship between Ye Xunhuan and Wang Zilin, Chu Ji could sense that Ye Xunhuan really cared about this little girl.
Otherwise, why would he take a nanny's daughter to Ferragamo?
Wang Zilin naturally knew that Chu Ji was referring to Ye Xunhuan, and she said with her head down, "I don't want to cause trouble for Brother Ye!"
Due to her personality, Wang Zilin wasn't soone who exerted dominance; she was completely the gentle, refined type, like a woman from the Jiangnan water towns, elegant as jade.
Even if soone bullied her, she would endure it.
"Silly girl, where is he?"
"I don't know!"
"Isn't that jerk as unreliable as ever!" Chu Ji said exasperatedly, "Forget it, I'll stand up for you!"
With that, Chu Ji focused her gaze on Lin Shiyu: "Young lady, the clothes she's wearing are my gift. You can ask others; when has anything from Chu Ji been fake?"
Perhaps because of Chu Ji's intimidating gaze, Lin Shiyu didn't dare to et her eyes, keeping her head down and saying nothing.
"Zilin, tell Sister Chu what happened, who bullied you!" Chu Ji asked softly.
"Sister Chu, thank you, it's nothing!"
"Zilin, what do you an nothing!" Tan Jiang quickly protested, "This man is the one who targeted Zilin, Zilin already refused him, but he persisted and even laid hands on her!"
"And he said unspeakable things to flirt with Zilin!" Tan Jiang said heavily, "And these despicable people here, they were egging him on, wanting to see a joke!"
With that, Tan Jiang pointed her finger at Lin Shiyu and the others.
"What a righteous young girl!" Xu Mingzhe said softly, "If she doesn't change this attitude, she'll suffer losses without soone to back her up!"
Ye Xunhuan knew Xu Mingzhe was speaking for his benefit, but Ye Xunhuan said nothing.
However, as long as Tan Jiang kept it up, Ye Xunhuan would be willing to give her a prosperous future, it all depends on whether Tan Jiang can seize the opportunity!
At the mont, having heard Tan Jiang's words, Chu Ji understood, and looked at the man before her: "Is what she said true?"
"Chu... Miss Chu..." The man appeared flustered and nervous.
He knew of Chu Ji, being the daughter of Chu Tianhong, the heiress of Tianhong Group, she was not soone he could afford to offend!
"It seems you know who I am!"
"Miss Chu, I didn't realize that you..."
"I don't have any rules," Chu Ji said casually, "but if soone sses with my friends, they have to pay the price!"
"While I don't know who you are, judging by your reaction, stomping you out shouldn't be too difficult!"
Chu Ji wasn't like those students who hadn't yet entered society, living in ignorance of everything.
Now, the man's reaction confird for Chu Ji that his background wasn't as strong as hers!
The man shivered uncontrollably, his voice tinged with panic and fear as he said, "Miss Chu, you're magnanimous, a pri minister's belly can accommodate a ship, please don't hold it against ..."
Tan Jiang looked at Chu Ji with surprise, wondering who this woman was to instill such fear just with her na!
Whom exactly had Wang Zilin co to know with Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi?
Seeing this, others felt a sense of pity for the man. The Chu family's young lady backing soone up, it would be difficult for this matter to end peacefully.
Even if Xie Mingjiang were to step in, if Chu Ji didn't relent, it wouldn't easily be resolved.
But then it would be interesting; otherwise, the endless rounds of drinking would be boring.
Xie Mingjiang could stand idle no longer, and had to walk over to Chu Ji.
"Miss Chu, what's the matter here, who has offended you?"
One must admit, Xie Mingjiang's feigned ignorance was quite convincing, appearing completely unaware.
"Brother Ye, this old fox is smoothing things over, aren't you going to take a look?"
"You don't understand Chu Ji!" Ye Xunhuan said calmly, "Just watch!"
Ye Xunhuan and Chu Ji had been classmates for several years, so he knew Chu Ji's temper well.
"Uncle Xie, soone bullied my little sister!" Chu Ji said lightly, "And this person seems to be one of Uncle Xie's guests!"
"But as far as I know, Uncle Xie only associates with gentlen, so how can there be such a scoundrel?" Chu Ji said with a faint smile, staring at Xie Mingjiang, "Am I right, Uncle Xie?"
Xie Mingjiang's old face twitched slightly, for a mont not knowing what to say.
Should he simply kick the man out?
If he did that, it would certainly make others think more, but if he didn't do it, it would be akin to admitting he associated with such people.
Chu Ji was digging a pit for Xie Mingjiang, whether he chose to jump or not was none of her concern; the point was clear anyway!
Despite being an experienced veteran, Xie Mingjiang found himself unsure of what to say at this juncture.
At this mont, Xie Mingjiang's heart was filled with struggle and conflict!
The next mont, Xie Mingjiang gritted his teeth and said, "As age cos upon us, one's eyesight becos flawed, leading to misjudgnt!"
Xie Mingjiang didn't deny knowing the man but gave himself a way out.
"Then Uncle Xie should take this opportunity to see clearly!" Chu Ji said casually, "Uncle Xie, since he's your guest and I'm also your guest, I'm not inclined to intervene, but my little sister was bullied by your guest at your place, surely you'll give a satisfactory explanation, won't you?"
