If it was possible, he wanted to go with her.
He didn’t trust his cynical second brother, who didn’t care about anything, nor did he trust his naive third brother, who was too playful.

“I don’t need you to remind me.” Ji Yang pursed his lips unhappily.
Protect his sister-in-law? He had never seen his sister-in-law’s true face. She was a pain in the ass when she beat people!
Ji Zhou, who was standing at the side, sneered as well. All the women in the upper-class society were no match for Shen Hanxing. After all, this woman did not care about her life when she went crazy. The people in the upper-class society were not as reckless as she was.
He lowered his head and played with his lighter, but his gaze swept past the exquisite figure in the distance time and time again.
Before she left, Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan looked at each other, and the two of them nodded indiscernibly.
She wore a black shawl, her body swayed, and her waist was straight. Like a female general, she led her younger brothers and sisters to the cannibalistic ‘battlefield’.
The Zhuang family was brightly lit. Men and women who pretended to get along chatted and laughed under the light.
The banquet slowly began.
Shen Sisi wore a champagne-colored gown and a crown studded with small diamonds. She was like a little princess who walked out of the castle, attracting a lot of attention the moment she entered.
Qiao Wei proudly held Shen Sisi’s arm and whispered in her ear, “Sisi, you must perform well tonight. Master Lin Ran is famous. If he fancies you, you can marry into any noble family in the future.”
Shen Sisi frowned as if she was uncomfortable with her mother’s purposeful words. She tugged Qiao Wei’s clothes and said, “Mom, don’t keep saying that. I know what I need to do.”
She finally got rid of the cripple, now, she had to keep her eyes open and find a man who was worthy of her. Her beautiful life was about to begin…

Qiao Wei knew that her daughter knew what she needed to do. She smiled and patted her hand. “I know, I know. As long as you know what you’re doing, I know that you know best.”
This time, the guests at the banquet were all big shots. The Shen family was nothing compared to others. They put in a lot of effort to obtain an invitation.
Not far away, Cheng Liu looked at the mother and daughter duo from the Shen family who were about to write the words “gold diggers” on their faces. She nudged the person beside her. “Ji Qian, do you see that? That’s your sister-in-law’s sister and stepmother. That’s strange… with the Shen family’s status, they shouldn’t be invited to this banquet, right?”
“Cheng Liu, I already said that I don’t have a sister-in-law. If you continue to spout nonsense, I’ll leave.” Ji Qian impatiently picked up her wine glass. “A woman who came from a poor area wants to be my sister-in-law? Is she worthy?”

Ji Qian, the fourth daughter of the Ji family, just returned from abroad last night when she was invited to this banquet by her close friends. She only left to study for a while. After returning, everything had changed.

Her eldest brother was in a car accident and was now crippled. He even married a rude and ignorant woman who came from a poor area…

Damn it, so what if her eldest brother was disabled? In her heart, he was still like a god. He was not someone that any random woman could climb up to!
Now, whenever she heard about that woman, Ji Qian felt irritated, especially when Cheng Liu told her about what happened a while ago. She was a woman who casually got into a fight, she was even more unworthy of being her sister-in-law!
She didn’t want a shrew to be her sister-in-law!
Ji Qian’s attitude made Cheng Liu happy. She smiled bitterly and nodded. “Yes, I don’t want to admit that such a woman is my cousin-in-law. Cousin is such a good person, how could he marry such a woman… I feel it’s unfair just thinking about it.”

“Alright, didn’t I tell you not to mention her?”
The more Ji Qian listened, the more annoyed she became. She picked up her wine glass and downed it in one gulp. “I’m so disappointed. I don’t want to return to the villa. Do you have any good places to recommend?”
“Qian Qian [Ji Qian’s nickname], the villa belongs to the Ji family. You can’t not return home because of that woman.” Cheng Liu pretended to be surprised. “Even so, the person who should leave shouldn’t be you!”
After saying this, she rolled her eyes, lowered her voice, and said, “How about this? I heard that woman is also attending the banquet today. Let’s teach her a lesson? Let her realize her position. Don’t think that just because she married into the Ji family, she can soar to the top and become a phoenix?”
Ji Qian was moved.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the door. They subconsciously looked up.
