Chapter 513: Chapter 512: Spurning Kindness

After a brief silence, Old Master Chi looked at Director Gao’s increasingly grim expression and coughed, “That foolish girl, inexperienced and doesn’t even know how to weigh what’s important.”

As he spoke, he picked up his phone and personally called Chi Yunjin.

It took a while for Chi Yunjin to answer the phone, “Hello, Dad?”

Old Master Chi said sternly, “You hurry up and get Qianqian to our private room. It’s not everyone who gets to meet Director Gao so easily. It’s her good fortune that he’s willing to give her this opportunity! Tell her not to waste such a great chance over some petty girlhood friendship!”

Luo Qianqian had just arrived in Capital City and didn’t have any friends; who else could she dine with other than Chi Gui?

What’s the use of dining with Chi Gui?

To Old Master Chi’s surprise, after hearing his words, Chi Yunjin also refused without a moment’s hesitation.

“Dad, Qianqian and I are having dinner together right now! She really can’t make it, thank you for your kindness.”

Even Chi Yunjin didn’t care at all?

Old Master Chi couldn’t help wondering, “Where are you having dinner?”

Chi Yunjin replied, “Spring Banquet.”

They were in the same restaurant as him!

Old Master Chi hung up the phone, puzzled in his mind.

Spring Banquet was the most upscale restaurant in Capital City and operated on a private membership basis; without significant status, one simply couldn’t enter.

The only reason they were able to reserve a meal there this time was thanks to Director Gao’s favor.

Old Master Chi thought of Chi Gui’s boyfriend.

He was good friends with Mr. Qin… Could it be that he helped Chi Gui make the reservation?

Old Master Chi was full of doubts and fell silent for a while.

But he was close to Director Gao, and his phone’s volume wasn’t low, so every word Chi Yunjin said went straight into the Director’s ears.

Director Gao’s expression darkened slightly.

He had invited Luo Qianqian to dinner precisely to do the Chi Family a favor.

But he hadn’t expected such a new, low-ranking member to show him such disrespect.

It was like offering a face and her not wanting it!

Having seen much of the world and with a lifetime of business experience, Old Master Chi was sharp as a tack.

Seeing Director Gao’s expression was off, he immediately understood the situation.

He slammed his glass onto the table with force and snorted coldly, “Yunjin and Luo Qianqian have truly gotten used to living at the bottom, they don’t even understand basic social etiquette! Director Gao, please don’t stoop to their level. After we return, I will surely teach them a lesson and have them personally come to your door to apologize another day!”

Director Gao didn’t speak, but his face softened slightly.

Chi Yan, with her head bowed, took a sip of water and muttered as though to no one in particular, “Even if she wanted to have dinner with Sister Chi Gui, she should have come over and greeted Director Gao! It wouldn’t have taken much time… She couldn’t possibly think that greeting Director Gao is less important than dining with Sister Chi Gui, could she?”

With one remark, Director Gao’s face sank again.

Zhao Yuexiu had long found Chi Yunjin and Luo Qianqian disagreeable. Upon hearing this, she said with a smile, “If you ask me, the members we should accept in our Association should be those whose character is as good as their abilities. Designers like her, who haven’t mastered their craft but have learned to be arrogant, simply don’t deserve to enter the Jewelry Association!”

Chi Yan cast a discreet glance at Director Gao and spoke with some hesitation, “I actually find it quite strange. Qianqian’s skills were very poor the other day; how could she have suddenly improved and reached the standards for membership?”

Director Gao responded with a heavy tone, “After we return, I’ll make sure to conduct a thorough investigation into this! The membership evaluation is one of the key ways to select jewelry design talent in our country, and we absolutely will not tolerate any form of favoritism or corruption!”

Hearing Director Gao speak this way, both Old Master Chi and Chi Changjing couldn’t help but gently shake their heads.

After tonight, Luo Qianqian’s membership opportunity would probably be gone.

But that’s the harsh reality—she didn’t realize what was good for her and offended Director Gao’s face; even if they wanted to, they couldn’t save her.

The meal concluded.

Chi Yunjin, along with Chi Gui, Luo Qianqian, and Bao Jianfeng, personally escorted Mrs. Fu to her car.

After that, Bao Jianfeng returned to the restaurant to go to the restroom.

Chi Yunjin, Luo Qianqian, and Chi Gui stood waiting for him at the restaurant entrance.

Bao Jianfeng’s assistant went to the underground parking lot to get the car.

Just then.

Old Master Chi and his party, who had also finished their meal, came out of the restaurant.

They saw Chi Gui and the others standing not far from the entrance.
