Ms. Bigshot Is Pampered by All-Chapter 181 - 180: A Bit Confused
Chapter 181 -180: A Bit Confused
The young man had blonde hair and blue eyes, with a high-bridged nose, a standard foreign hunk demeanor.
Descending from the stairs, his expression was very cold, not giving a proper glance to the respectful servants and butler waiting on the side.
Even Jin Ran, who followed behind him, couldn’t earn a favorable look from him.
Chi Gui sat on the sofa to the right, her back facing the staircase, so the man didn’t see Chi Gui’s face, only vaguely noticing a petite girl sitting there.
As one of Capital City’s top four esteemed families, although the Jin Family had declined somewhat compared to the other three, they still had deep roots. Even certain officials from abroad would have to show some courtesy to the members of the Jin Family.
But at this moment, in the face of this cold and arrogant young man, neither Jin Ran, the grand-daughter of the Jin family, nor the butler and servants, showed any displeasure on their faces.
“Mr. Edmond, you’ve worked hard,” said the butler as he approached the man who had come downstairs, bending respectfully.
Hearing the name called out by the butler, Chi Gui slightly raised her eyebrows and took a glance backward.
When she saw that familiar arrogance on the man’s face, Chi Gui: …
She seemed to understand why Old Sir Jin suddenly got better.
Edmond paid no mind to the little girl on the sofa and, upon hearing the butler’s words, merely nodded, turning his head to give a few instructions to Jin Ran in English before preparing to leave.
As he passed by Chi Gui, not even a glance was spared her way.
It was Jin Ran who noticed Chi Gui and expressed her surprise, “Sister Chi, what brings you here?”
“I came to see Grandpa Jin,” replied Chi Gui, putting down her teacup and standing up.
Edmond, who had already reached the door, suddenly stiffened.
Jin Ran said with a smile, “Wait just a moment, I’ll see Mr. Edmond off first.”
With that, she turned around, ready to continue following Edmond.
But unexpectedly, Edmond suddenly took big strides back towards them.
His deep green eyes steadfastly landed on Chi Gui and, after a while, he stared in disbelief, mouth agape—
Jin Ran thought Edmond was excited because Chi Gui was good-looking, and smilingly said, “Sister Chi, this is Professor Edmond, you’ve probably heard of him. He’s the most famous international medical prodigy, only thirty years old, and has already been granted the title of lifetime honorary professor at Stotan University. His medical achievements are nothing short of extraordinary.”
At this point, Jin Ran paused, adding with an ambiguous meaning, “His current accomplishments in neurosurgery are incomparable to that of any domestic medical professionals.”
Edmond: ??
His face immediately filled with embarrassment, and he hastily turned to Chi Gui, about to speak.
Chi Gui looked at him and calmly smiled, “I see… that’s really impressive.”
Edmond: …

In a fluster, he defended himself in Mandarin, “No, no… that’s all nonsense… I’m not that impressive…”
Jin Ran and the butler gave Edmond a surprised look.
From the time they had invited him to the Jin household until now, at least half a month had passed, and he had always communicated with them in English.
So Edmond could speak Mandarin…
Without thinking much of it, Jin Ran responded to his words, laughing, “Mr. Edmond, you’re being too modest.”
Edmond: “This isn’t modesty…”
Boasting about him in front of Professor Chi was like praising a bronze player’s skills and awareness in front of a champion.
He himself felt embarrassed…
“Let’s sit down and talk,” Chi Gui suddenly interjected, ending the topic.
Only then did Jin Ran react, hurriedly saying, “Oh right, Mr. Edmond, please have a seat.”
She was just being polite with her words; after all, Edmond hadn’t chatted with anyone casually during the past half month.
Jin Ran was already prepared for Edmond to refuse, so she didn’t sit down either, waiting to see him off afterwards.
To her surprise, after Chi Gui sat down, Edmond also took a seat.
