Chi Mingkun utterly neglected his own daughter and showed no concern, yet he was excessively enthusiastic about a relative’s daughter. Even he found it unbearable to watch.
But there was nothing he could do, as Chi Changjing’s decisions were final and his words carried no weight.
After he finished speaking, Chi Mingkun cautiously observed Chi Gui’s expression and cautiously said, "I didn’t want to tell you this and add to your worries... but since you are also going to the Jewelry Association, I’m concerned you might run into them..."
Chi Gui leaned against the passenger side window, her arm propping up her face, and glanced at him indifferently, her almond-shaped eyes dark and devoid of much emotion.
Her voice was also calm, "Thank you, I’m aware."
Chi Mingkun wanted to say more, but seeing Chi Gui’s indifferent demeanor, he didn’t know what else to say. His lips parted, but ultimately, no words came out.
The Jewelry Association was located in an inner alley of the third ring in the Capital City, where various cultural associations were situated, including the National Cultural Administration.
Each time one entered this area, they would immediately be enveloped by a rich cultural atmosphere, although ordinary people usually didn’t have the privilege to come here, so the whole alley was sparsely populated.
Chi Gui got out of the car, and Chi Mingkun, still worried, said, "Shall I go with you?"
Chi Gui replied, "No need, I would have to be concerned about your feelings then, which would be a bit troublesome."
Chi Mingkun...
Chi Mingkun, with a heavy heart, drove away.
Chi Gui approached the entrance of the Jewelry Association, and before she could enter, an unfamiliar number called her.
She answered the call only to hear a respectful middle-aged voice say, "Hello, is this Chi Gui? I am the chairman of the Jewelry Association, Bao Jianfeng. Chairman Feng has already told me everything; you can come register anytime, just let us know in advance, and I will personally take you to register!"
Chi Gui had initially intended to just go through the motions, register, and leave, not expecting Feng Tang to have spoken to the Association chairman.
Chi Gui didn’t beat around the bush and straightforwardly responded, "Thank you for the trouble, I’m already at the Association’s entrance."
"Alright, please wait a moment." Bao Jianfeng said and then hung up the phone.
