Chapter 1069: Face Slapping, Identity Revealed (1)

How could Above the Clouds, the world’s leading electronic brand, stoop to such a level?

Ji Longtai’s face was filled with disbelief, every muscle in his body tensed.

For the banquet that day, he had mobilized nearly all the prestigious families in Sijiu and made a grand announcement online that Ji Qingwei would soon become the chief designer for Yunshang.

The buildup had been immense, and now the fall was equally hard.

Ji Longtai trembled all over.

If it weren’t for Lang Xuan’s secretary deliberately misleading him with those words, he would never have acted in such a way.

…

What was he supposed to do now?

There were over ten thousand guests present, and the live broadcast had reached an audience of over a billion worldwide!

This was clearly intended to sever all of Ji family’s avenues for retreat.

Furthermore, Ji Longtai had originally planned to introduce Ji Qingwei with great fanfare.

Yet, Ji Qingwei made her public debut in such a humiliating manner, which was nothing short of a laughingstock.

The scene fell silent for a moment before erupting with laughter.

The mocking tone was thick, offering no courtesy to Ji Longtai at all.

In the global live stream of the Above the Clouds press conference, the barrage of comments skyrocketed.

[Wow, hahahaha! What a turnaround, it’s really a huge reversal!]

[Another case of plagiarism? Ji Qingwei seems addicted to it; doesn’t she have anything of her own? Does she really think no one can tell?]*

[Wow, the entire Ji family has no shame; with their history of embroidery, I can’t believe Ji Qingwei plagiarized without her parents knowing.]

[Come on, everyone, why aren’t you laughing? Let me declare first that I’m a person without morals and class; this has nothing to do with where I come from, I’m just laughing out of respect.]

The nobles and celebrities invited to the conference were also taken aback by this sudden turn of events, distancing themselves from Ji Longtai.

Old Madam Yu’s face turned pale, her chest heaving with anger. “See, what did I say? I knew it would turn out this way! I told you that sickly girl never leaves the house, how could she know these things? Yet you all didn’t believe me!”

Old Master Yu and Yu Yao remained silent.

Especially Yu Yao.

He felt as if all his understanding of Ji Qingwei had shattered in that instant.

This was not the Ji Qingwei he knew; her appearance and talent were completely different!

What on earth was happening?!

Yu Yao was nearly driven to madness.

Had he only been seeing a façade of Ji Qingwei all these years?

“Forget it, no one from the Ji family can be saved,” Old Master Yu spoke coldly. “And you, yU Yao, don’t let so-called life-saving grace bind you for a lifetime. If the Ji family comes looking for you, don’t let your heart soften.”

Yu Yao felt a bitterness in his heart. “I understand, Grandpa.”

This press conference had turned the Ji family into an international joke.

Yet, Ji Longtai couldn’t just storm off; he had to endure the countless scrutinizing gazes directed at him.

Meanwhile, the elder of the Yin family fixed his gaze on the girl sitting beside Lang Xuan, motionless.

“Grandfather, do you see anything?” In Yunxi whispered. “She really doesn’t seem like an evolved being.”

The Great Elder frowned deeply. “It’s strange; I haven’t detected any energy fluctuations from her that indicate she’s an evolved being.”

“Grandfather, if we can’t sense anything, even if she were an evolved being, she would at most be a Class D. At that level, she can’t return to the In family.” In Yunxi said calmly.

The servants of the In family were all Class C evolved beings.

What use was a Class D evolved being?

“Yunxi, don’t underestimate that old woman; she has plenty of tricks up her sleeve.” The elder scoffed. “Otherwise, do you think her son would have caused so much trouble for the In family, and she wouldn’t have faced any punishment to live until now?”

In any great family, those who could survive until the end were not to be underestimated.

“Of course,” In Yunxi frowned. “I remember the last time she went out without her medication, her energy went berserk, yet her body improved instead. It’s truly strange.”

The Great Elder replied coldly, “This matter is indeed suspicious; it needs to be investigated thoroughly.”

He couldn’t allow Old Madam In to easily bring back Si Fuqing and the In family.

**

After the press conference concluded, Si Fuqing exited.

At that moment, her phone rang. She answered, “Hello, Grandma.”

“Qingqing, the others from the In family have noticed you.” Old Madam Yin spoke quickly. “But it’s alright; I originally intended to report back to the family, and the groundwork has been laid. You mustn’t roam around in the next few days; I still don’t know what they might do.”
