Chapter 220 Never Give Up
"Are you intending to speak while standing?" Facing Mi Wan’s gaze, Shi Minjun looked calm on the surface, but she was actually feeling quite impatient. Thus, her tone carried a hint of aggressiveness and a cold indifference that kept people at a distance.
"If you have something to say, please say it directly!" Mi Wan sat down gracefully. Even though her attire wasn’t as luxurious as Shi Minjun’s, Mi Wan had a more outstanding presence. A hint of elegance subtly emanated from her every move and word. Although Mi Wan appeared gentle and pleasant, she possessed a stubborn streak and would not be kind to those who had hurt her in the past.
She was not the naive girl she once was. Coming to see her, she couldn’t help but tense up and feel very nervous, worried that Shi Minjun would not like her! But as time went by, at this very moment, besides harboring resentment towards Shi Minjun, Mi Wan had no other feelings!
"Is this the attitude you use when speaking to an elder?" Hearing Mi Wan’s colder tone, Shi Minjun was quite displeased, and her once rosy face immediately darkened.
"Heh, are you trying to slap yourself with those words? Do you forget what you did to me back then, just because you’re getting older?" Mi Wan chuckled softly; her voice was still as gentle as ever, but like a small stone thrown into a calm lake, it disrupted the original tranquility.
Shi Minjun felt a sting in her heart and her gaze towards Mi Wan changed. She then mocked, "A woman like you, who lacks self-awareness and overestimates herself, what good are your sharp words? Don’t think that just because you have some ability, you can overestimate yourself. You couldn’t enter the Ji Family’s gate eleven years ago, and it’s even less likely now!"
"If I can’t enter the Ji Family’s gate, I can still bring Ji Dongquan into our Mi Family’s small door. Miss Shi, what do you think of this option?" Mi Wan responded calmly, without haste or anger, with a faint smile.
Mi Wan’s composure and calmness surprised Shi Minjun. The Mi Wan from back then couldn’t even meet her eyes, but now she was able to press her step by step!
Facing Mi Wan’s gentle provocation, Shi Minjun was naturally annoyed, but coming from a prestigious family, she maintained her poise and could never yell and scream at Mi Wan like a shrew.
