"By the way, Madam, there's news from Ye Jue."
Jin Su had just begun to speak when another male voice interrupted from behind.
"Isn't this the Young Lady Chi? What a surprise!"
Chi Mu Jiu looked up and met the man's gaze, disdain and arrogance radiating from his eyes. Even without having met him before, she could guess that the brazen man before her was Lei Ji from the Lei family.
Standing beside him was a stunning beauty, not Chi Qi Yun.
Chi Mu Jiu glanced at her and then averted her eyes, speaking in a cold tone, "Young Master Lei's taste seems to be getting worse by the day."
Her words dripped with veiled sarcasm. The beautiful woman next to Lei Ji's expression darkened instantly; she shot a fierce glare at Chi Mu Jiu and retorted rudely, "Who are you talking about?"
Chi Mu Jiu raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing at the corners of her mouth. But before she could respond further, her companions chimed in.
"Admitting it without being asked—whoever breaks first loses."
A few of her brothers were signaled by Jin Su not to act just yet, but their words were sharp nonetheless.
"You all!"
The woman felt overwhelmed by the crowd's response and could only pull Lei Ji's arm tighter in frustration.
Seeing his woman being humiliated, a flicker of displeasure crossed Lei Ji's face. However, he knew it wasn't the right time to explode; he had to suppress his anger.
"The Young Lady not only acts decisively but also has quite the fiery temper. I thought that in a few days Qi Yun would take over the Chi family's position, but I didn't expect that with just her arrival, she would prop up the Chi Group so forcefully. That's truly beyond my expectations."
"It's just a few hundred billion; is that enough to impress you? Your vision is too narrow."
Jin Su was the first to retort sharply.
Chi Mu Jiu leisurely enjoyed her hot pot, secretly pleased with herself.
Every one of Du Hangyan's subordinates had a personality that reflected his own style! They were all so talkative.
Lei Ji felt a bit embarrassed, his displeasure evident on his face.
"Who do you think you are? This isn't a place for you to speak!"
The alluring beauty looked at Jin Su with disdain.
"You have the least right to talk here, you shameless sycophant."
Chi Mu Jiu's beautiful eyes sparkled with sharpness, and upon seeing this, the woman's attitude softened immediately.
However, Lei Ji's expression darkened even further at her words.
"Chi Mu Jiu, I’m giving you face, and yet you’re getting cocky! Using that male model’s money must make you feel quite at ease!"
"You!"
Naturally, Du Hangyan's subordinates couldn't tolerate such insults directed at their boss; they were ready to retaliate first. A few of them stood up, and even Jin Su couldn't resist the urge to get involved.
Although Chi Mu Jiu was furious inside, her rationality held firm. There was no way she would let Lei Ji take advantage of this verbal sparring match. She waved her hand to signal everyone to calm down and continue eating.
They couldn’t afford to lose their composure at such a critical moment.
Hearing her words, the others exchanged glances and could only suppress their anger, picking up their chopsticks again.
"You say I’m raising a male model and using his money—what evidence do you have? Don’t tell me that just seeing a trending topic counts as proof."
Chi Mu Jiu narrowed her eyes slightly, a mocking smile playing on her lips.
Her words struck like a sword, piercing straight to the heart.
The trending topic surely wasn’t just bought by Chi Qiyun; there had to be some involvement from Lei Ji as well. Chi Mu Jiu already had her answer in mind.
"Young Master Lei, could it be that this trending topic is related to you? Or perhaps you purchased it yourself? You're really giving yourself away here."
Her voice was crisp and pleasant, but her words carried an icy mockery that sent chills down one’s spine.
For a moment, Lei Ji was speechless; he hadn’t expected Chi Mu Jiu to so directly point the finger at him.
Faced with her accusation, he found himself unable to come up with a suitable rebuttal.
