After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 196 - 195: Give Her Some Face

Quan Ke’s face turned red, her neck stiffened, "In your dreams!"

"Tsk." Ji Qilin snickered with a change from his usually gentle demeanor, "Then keep your noise down around me, Quan Ke. The past, I could remember it for a lifetime."

Quan Ke was at a loss for words, and after a long while, she muttered in frustration, "I didn’t even know that doll was a gift from your sister... sigh, can I just say I’m sorry, and have another one custom-made exactly like it for you? Still want it in Barbie pink?"

Ji Qilin: "..."

"No need."

"Fine, forget it then, I’m not that bored."

There was an awkward silence between the two, neither spoke.

Quan Ke, utterly frustrated, played with her phone—she was so angry she could order ten thousand right now!

Make them in every color of the rainbow and let him choose!

Outside, milk tea was served on the first floor, and after Ji Tian came out, Shen Zhiyi followed her.

She felt somewhat amused; this was the first time Shen Zhiyi had taken the initiative to walk with her. Usually, if they crossed paths in the school corridors, Shen Zhiyi would probably take a detour.

Neither had much to talk about, but when Shen Zhiyi caught a glimpse of Ji Tian’s indifferent profile, her eyes flickered and she spoke first with an apologetic expression, "Student Ji Tian, Ah Nan... has he been well lately? I don’t know what I did to anger him, he blocked and deleted me."

Ji Tian responded expressionlessly, "He’s been very busy lately, busy grinding for ’Top Scholar’. He’s determined to claim next year’s college entrance exam top spot."

Shen Zhiyi: "..."

Weinan studying?

That was like the sun rising from the west. She took Ji Tian’s words as a joke.

After all, in the original story, Weinan remained a delinquent who bought his degrees with family money until the end.

She chuckled, "It’s good that he has ambitions, but studying is hard work. People born into wealthy families have been ahead of ordinary people from the start. There’s no need to work so hard."

"What? If we don’t work hard, will you provide for us? Even the wealthy need to eat and spend money. We can’t join society in the future still clueless about everything, ending up as giant babies. Also, stop comparing us to ordinary people all the time. When all is said and done, I’m just an ordinary person too, right, Shen?"

Shen Zhiyi was taken aback; she had never had a serious conversation with Ji Tian and hadn’t expected her to be so sharp-tongued and merciless.

She forced a smile, "Sorry, I was just too worried about your older brother."

"And from what position are you worried about him? As a family member or a relative? Don’t talk about friends; if you really like him, why not just be with him? I’d be all for it, hands and feet in the air."

Be with Weinan?

What could he offer her?

Shen Zhiyi’s smile stiffened as she defended herself, "We’re still high school students; we can’t date early."

Ji Tian nodded knowingly, "I understand that, so why don’t you two agree to date after high school graduation? It’s only a year and a half. In the blink of an eye, it’ll be over. Don’t tell me you can’t wait." freēwēbnovel.com

Shen Zhiyi began to regret it. Why did she bother Ji Tian for nothing? She apologized, her head lowered, "Sorry, I won’t ask him anymore."

Ji Tian was at a loss for words too. She turned her head to look outside the glass elevator and saw a black figure closely followed by a red one. The figures vanished in a flash. Ji Tian even thought she was mistaken. How could she see the back of her elder brother on the second floor?

She hurriedly pressed for the second floor. As soon as the elevator stopped, she immediately chased out. Shen Zhiyi, a bit confused by the situation, followed her, "Classmate Ji Tian, the milk tea seems to be on the first floor. The second floor is for luxury clothing. Do you want to buy clothes?"

Shen Zhiyi buzzed in her ear like a fly, nonstop. Ji Tian frowned in annoyance, "Shut up."

She then sullenly closed her mouth, her eyes reddening.

"Xixi! Look over there, it looks like Ji Tian and Shen Zhiyi! How come they are walking together, and it seems like Ji Tian made Shen Zhiyi cry."

Opposite Ji Tian, on the corridor, was Gong Dongxi and her group. Five people followed behind her, including Feng Juanjuan and Bei Ning, who were there to accompany Gong Dongxi in choosing a gown.

Bai Tingyu’s eighteenth birthday was approaching, and she needed to dress up beautifully for the occasion.

It was surprising that she finally caught Shen Zhiyi outside. Ordinarily, Shen Zhiyi was very cautious, always walking in crowded areas. She even seemed to have made connections with some rich man, being picked up and dropped off in luxury cars for school, which gave Gong Dongxi no chance to approach her.

Gong Dongxi squinted her eyes and curved her lips into a smile, "We’re old friends after all, let’s pay a visit."

Ji Tian had not yet found the figure resembling her brother, but instead, Gong Dongxi blocked her path first.

She frowned slightly as Gong Dongxi scanned her and Shen Zhiyi, eyebrow raised, "In such a rush to go where?"

Ji Tian was forced to stop, "Do you need something?"

"It wouldn’t hurt to say hello when you run into someone you know," Gong Dongxi said with disdain. "Ji Tian, you’re really regressing, walking around with a poor girl like her. Don’t you think her poverty stench could kill someone?"

Ji Tian snorted coldly, "Don’t drag me into the grudge between you two. I’m not familiar with her."

Their group of six blocked the path, causing passersby to take detours around them, wary of getting involved with the group that looked like a bunch of female thugs.

Shen Zhiyi had never been in a fight in her life. She knew Gong Dongxi was always watching her, but she had backing and wasn’t scared. But being cornered now, she was a bit panicked and hid behind Ji Tian, afraid of getting hit.

Gong Dongxi already regarded them as accomplices. She wouldn’t do anything in front of the public, but seeing Ji Tian and Shen Zhiyi together was still irritating to her, and her resentment towards Ji Tian deepened even more.

Her gaze shifted to the nearby luxury store, and an idea flashed through her mind. She needed to make Ji Tian bleed a bit to feel at ease.

Gong Dongxi, with her arms crossed, had her usual pigtails braided into two braids, adorned with bright, star-shaped clips, her face made up delicately. She cocked her eyebrows, her mouth twisted, "Don’t be nervous, I won’t do anything to you. Since we’ve met, it’s fate. Here’s what we’ll do. I’m here to buy clothes and jewelry, and I have a membership at the store next door. Let’s buy a luxury item for each of you, my treat."

Ji Tian thought she must have heard wrong. Her archenemy stopped her not to bicker but to offer her a piece of luxury?

Her expression was indescribable, while Gong Dongxi’s other friends took her seriously. One of the girls, with dyed yellow hair, eyes gleamed, asking eagerly, "Is it true, Xixi? Anything goes? I’ve had my eye on a necklace for so long."

Gong Dongxi nodded, smiling, "Of course, it’s true. Pick one each, and I’ll pay—clothes, bags, jewelry, anything goes."

Feng Juanjuan’s heart surged with excitement. Now she could wear beautiful clothes in front of Qin Jiangsheng.

He didn’t look her in the eye, and it must be because she wasn’t pretty enough.

But her family circumstances limited her a lot, making her only able to look at these things longingly. Fearing Ji Tian would reject the offer, and that would surely end Gong Dongxi’s willingness to buy, she bit her lip and then raised a pleasant smile, "Then let’s go. Classmate Ji Tian, Xixi has invited you so formally, give her some face."
