Chapter 154 Birthday Banquet (2)
"You! Still the same as ever." Qin Huiyi understood Mi Jing quite well. Back then, everyone was almost breaking their heads for a chance to go abroad, but she was different. She had the chance to go abroad for further studies but voluntarily gave up the spot, saying she didn’t want to leave home and her parents. The professor tried repeatedly to talk her out of it but couldn’t convince her, leaving many people feeling sorry for her.
But Mi Jing was like that—if she didn’t like something, she wouldn’t care about it, no matter how much others worried for her. She would never change her mind, even if she knew the road ahead was a bright one. If she didn’t like it, she wouldn’t take a step forward, living entirely by her own will. To Qin Huiyi, Mi Jing had quite a personality, but to some, she was just a fool!
The two hadn’t seen each other for a long time, so they had plenty to talk about. As they walked and chatted, they saw Li Jia coming towards them, and they both chose to ignore her.
Qin Huiyi hadn’t witnessed the events between Mi Jing, Han Xiujie, and Li Jia firsthand, but she had heard about them. Originally, she had no fondness for Li Jia, this spoiled rich second-generation, and after she knew Li Jia had interfered in Mi Jing’s relationship, she disliked her even more.
Having been in society for a while, Qin Huiyi was very tactful in dealing with people and had built up a decent network by not offending anyone. But when it came to Li Jia, she didn’t want to force herself into polite small talk, especially with Mi Jing present. She certainly wouldn’t take the initiative to greet Li Jia.
Some people just loved being flattered by everyone, and when ignored, they felt uncomfortable and assumed others intentionally embarrassed them. Li Jia was precisely such a person.
Today, she wore a light blue, low-cut dress with a black jacket draped over her shoulders and a necklace around her neck. The pendant was long and fell between her cleavage. Whether it was sexy or gaudy depended on one’s view, but Qin Huiyi and Mi Jing felt nothing positive about her or her fashion taste.
"Senior Huiyi," Li Jia brushed her long hair to one side, letting it fall over one shoulder, displaying a smile with red lips and lipstick-stained teeth, which didn’t seem sexy or beautiful but rather gave off a grotesque impression.
Seeing this, Mi Jing kept a blank face, remaining silent as Qin Huiyi stopped walking.
