Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!-Chapter 765: Dead Early in the Morning!
Chapter 765: Chapter 765: Dead Early in the Morning!
Jiang Li offered a gentle smile, her expression unchanging.
"Apologies, Miss Rong. Grandfather’s birthday banquet has indeed ended, but since we have a distinguished guest, we are naturally welcoming. Jiang Ye, please open the door."
"Okay, Miss."
Although she had successfully entered, Rong Kexi felt uncomfortable from head to toe.
She had arrived full of momentum, only to find herself immediately overshadowed by Jiang Li.
She walked over with a stern face and stood in front of Jiang Li.
Now, she felt she had some advantage.
She was taller than Jiang Li, plus she was wearing seven-centimeter high heels, making her half a head taller.
Rong Kexi regained some confidence and said rudely, "Is Miss Jiang just going to stand there? Won’t you show me around?"
Jiang Cheng, standing behind her, darkened his face, about to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Li.
Jiang Li was still smiling, "Since Miss Rong is interested, please, after you."
Rong Kexi, chin up, walked in front.
Jiang Li followed with only a few servants.
Rong Kexi noticed this and said discontentedly, scanning the people behind her, "Why just you? Doesn’t the Jiang Family have many people?"
Jiang Li’s eyes darkened.
Rong Kexi had already seen Jiang Cheng, but there was no reaction, which indicates she probably didn’t know.
If she wasn’t here for Jiang Cheng, things would be much easier.
"My grandfather is not well. After being tired out by today’s banquet, he is currently resting upstairs. The others are cleaning up. If Miss Rong wants to see them, I can take you there."
Rong Kexi’s expression changed, "Who wants to meet them?"
"Then who did Miss Rong come to see today?" freēwēbnovel.com
Rong Kexi stopped, turned, and sized her up, then sneered.
"Jiang Li, we’re all smart here, stop pretending. Don’t you know why I’m here?"
Jiang Li shook her head, "I don’t."
Seeing Jiang Li’s genuinely puzzled expression, Rong Kexi became even angrier.
Wasn’t it said that this Jiang Li was a tough nut to crack?
Why did she now seem so dumb and foolish?
Even failing to understand why she had come?
"Then let me be clear," Rong Kexi’s face turning a liver color with anger, "Don’t fantasize about people who are not yours. When you have time, better think about how to improve your own value."
Jiang Li tilted her head, "Didn’t Miss Rong already speak frankly? Why can’t I still understand?"
"You!"
Rong Kexi stamped her foot in frustration.
Her demeanor was usually composed, but today, she had been infuriated in less than half an hour after entering the Jiang Family house.
Indeed trivial people!
"I didn’t clarify to save you some face!" Rong Kexi said sternly, "I’m telling you to stay away from Gu Yu. He’s not someone you should get involved with!"
Jiang Cheng’s eyes flickered.
She came because of that man?
He knew that man was trouble!
Suddenly, Jiang Li remembered the words Yu Li had warned her with earlier.
So, Miss Rong had had her eyes on her since then?
No wonder she was so familiar with the Jiang Family.
Jiang Li still smiled, "Miss Rong might as well talk to Mr. Gu about that. I’m busy and have no time to deal with his unsettled debts."
Rong Kexi didn’t understand, but she did grasp one thing.
Jiang Li was flaunting to her.
Flaunting how Gu Yu frequently declined her dates yet continuously met Jiang Li!
"Typical vixen!"
Rong Kexi clenched her fists in anger.
"Jiang Li, to think that people online all said you were dignified, when you turned out to be the most shameless one," she scolded, "I advise you to get this straight: The Gu Family isn’t someone you can just try to climb up to, I—"
"Hey, busybody over there, you’re annoying my ears!"
Before Rong Kexi could finish her harsh words, she was interrupted by a grating voice.
She looked up displeased, only to see a very flashy man standing on the stairs.
He looked aggressive, his face full of disdain.
Almost immediately, she recognized him as Jiang Yan, Jiang Li’s elder brother, which didn’t improve her mood at all.
"Is it your turn to talk to me?"
Jiang Yan’s sneer grew louder, "Please, it’s the modern world and you’re still talking about whose turn it is? What, are you not human? Am I not allowed to speak to you?"
"You!"
Rong Kexi was about to explode.
Why did every member of the Jiang Family have to speak so rudely?!
"Typical impoverished plebs, no manners at all. Didn’t your parents teach you anything?"
"Didn’t your parents teach you not to barge into someone’s house uninvited? And here you are, even daring to lecture my sister. I guess not only were you not taught by your parents, but your parents also had no one to teach them."
Jiang Cheng found Jiang Yan’s triple retort extremely satisfying; he had always felt Jiang Yan shouldn’t be so outspoken, but now he thought his bluntness was quite fitting.
Rong Kexi took several deep breaths to contain her anger.
But before coming, her father had warned her repeatedly: she could come, but should not make a big scene.
She knew how terrifying her father could be when angry; despite feeling extremely humiliated at the moment, she dared not let it show.
Rong Kexi’s face went cold.
"It’s you who refused the toast and had to drink a forfeit."
With that, she grabbed her purse and walked away.
But just as she brushed past Jiang Li, she stopped and, in a voice that only the two of them could hear, warned:
"Behave yourself, or you’ll end up like Su Yinwan."
Jiang Li frowned.
Su Yinwan?
What had happened to her?
Before he could ponder further, Jiang Yan made funny faces at Rong Kexi’s retreating figure and said sarcastically,
"Your Highness, the Princess, I bid you farewell."
Rong Kexi, so angered she almost stumbled, was luckily steadied by her bodyguard.
She had arrived in fury and left in fury.
The crowd at the door hadn’t left either; they watched her until she was clear before making way.
Seeing Rong Kexi climb angrily into the car, people began to speculate.
"Did they start arguing inside?"
"Ah? The Jiang Family dared to offend Miss Rong; have they gone mad?"
"What exactly happened? I’m so curious, but sadly we’re all barred from entering."
Sitting in her car, Rong Kexi was fuming and was about to pull out her phone to complain to her grandparents.
Just then, a black sports car drove up nearby.
She wouldn’t have noticed, but that car was particularly eye-catching.
It was not only a limited edition, one of only ten globally custom-made Rolls-Royces, but its license plate shone brightly with 9999.
She had fought hard and failed to get that number; how did it end up in this person’s hands?
Was he also here for the Jiang Family’s banquet?
Since when did the Jiang Family know such people?
Rong Kexi’s curiosity peaked as she watched, until she saw who got out of the car, and she gasped.
It was him?!
