Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!-Chapter 784: She Has Such An Excellent Boyfriend

Ji Shanshan thought viciously, but in the blink of an eye, she masked the malice in her eyes, tilting her face upward as she affectionately clung to the tall and imposing man beside her. Beneath her facade was a trace of pride and flaunting.

She came here today with the sole purpose of showing off her boyfriend in front of Ji Wei.

Her boyfriend was a British nobleman, of high status, with looks that could rival those of a prince.

Gu Moqian, at best, was just a company CEO, but her boyfriend was the future heir to the Charles family, whom even the royal family had to show respect to!

"William, weren’t you curious about what my cousin looks like? Let me take you to see her now." Ji Shanshan proudly grabbed William’s hand and walked forward. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

If Ji Wei saw that she had such an outstanding boyfriend, she’d definitely be so mad she’d spit blood, wouldn’t she?

In her youthful ignorance back then, she had foolishly clung to Gu Moqian like a moth to a flame. Over the past year of traveling abroad, she’d come to realize she had been nothing but a frog in a well!

There were countless men more outstanding than Gu Moqian. If not for her plan to rely on the Gu Family’s influence in Rongcheng to seize control of the Ji Family, she wouldn’t even bother competing for Gu Moqian.

...

Several businessmen with ulterior motives approached, holding their wine glasses, hoping to strike up a conversation with Gu Moqian.

"Mr. Gu, might we trouble you for a few minutes of your time?" one middle-aged man asked politely.

"Apologies, tonight is my wife’s birthday. There’s nothing more important than being with her." Gu Moqian declined with an indifferent expression.

"Oh, I... I’m sorry..."

The men immediately looked embarrassed, their forced smiles stiff as they stood holding their wine glasses.

"Moqian, why don’t you chat with the guests for a bit? I’ll go sit over there; wearing these high heels for so long has tired my feet," Ji Wei suddenly said softly while tugging on Gu Moqian’s arm, her tone coquettish.

These men did hold some standing in Rongcheng. Since they had come to offer their congratulations, it wouldn’t be good to leave things on a sour note.

"Do you need me to carry you over there?" Gu Moqian lowered his gaze to her feet clad in thin high heels.

"No need, you go ahead and talk."

Ji Wei shook her head with a smile and walked toward the side.

After just a few steps, she noticed Xi Nanfeng sitting alone, drinking in frustration.

The usually playful and carefree Second Young Master Xi was unexpectedly sitting quietly tonight—it seemed out of character and unsettling.

Ji Wei picked up a glass of champagne from a waiter’s tray and walked over to sit across from Xi Nanfeng. "Second Young Master, drinking alone can get you drunk easily. Need some company to chat?"

Xi Nanfeng lifted his gaze to her briefly, but he didn’t refuse.

However, even after Ji Wei had sat down for quite some time, Xi Nanfeng still didn’t say a word. Just as she was about to break the silence, he suddenly asked, "What is it, exactly, that you women want?"

"Uh..."

Ji Wei was caught off guard by his abrupt question. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "Everyone’s different. My answer doesn’t represent others’, but sometimes, apart from love, we also want to chase our dreams, do what we want to do, and achieve personal fulfillment."

Maybe that’s what Qin Sixue thought too, which is why she decided to study abroad?

To hinge your entire life on a man alone is foolish. Ji Wei also agreed that women should be independent and have their own careers.

This way, even if you’re abandoned one day, you won’t be left with no way out.

After listening to Ji Wei’s words, Xi Nanfeng was silent for a long time. Then, all of a sudden, he set down his wine glass and stood up.

"I’m going to make a phone call." With that, he pulled out his phone and headed toward the lounge.

Ji Wei guessed he was probably calling Qin Sixue. She pressed her lips together and picked up the champagne in front of her.

"Hi, Miss Ji, we meet again."

Before she could take a sip, a familiar, detestable male voice wafted over from behind her.
