His attitude was cold and detached, effectively blocking whatever Chi Changjing was about to say.
Chi Changjing gave a forced smile and led his family inside.
It wasn’t until they reached the hall and couldn’t see Chi Gui that Chi Ruoxi timidly asked, "Auntie, is that sister?"
Recently, the news that Zhao Yuexiu had brought her elder daughter back home had spread within the family.
However, since Chi Changjing hadn’t hosted a banquet to formally introduce Chi Gui to the family, everyone just talked about it privately.
Zhao Yuexiu snorted displeasedly, "Don’t bother with her. Does she look like she considers us her family?"
Chi Ruoxi pursed her lips, unsure what to say.
Zhao Yuexiu was also unhappy inside.
Even the daughters of relatives knew to show her respect and obedience.
But ever since Chi Gui was brought back home, she hadn’t shown much regard for them, not showing the slightest bit of deference as a younger generation should.
Zhao Yuexiu felt embarrassed even to speak of it!
Moreover, seeing Chi Gui come to the Jewelry Association for registration suggested she couldn’t advance in medicine and was thus changing her career.
It all seemed so aimless.
Zhao Yuexiu became even more irritated thinking about it.
"Enough, don’t say more," Chi Changjing, walking ahead, spotted the director of the Jewelry Association in the distance and whispered.
Zhao Yuexiu, Chi Ruoxi, and Chi Yan also noticed him and quickly adjusted their expressions, waiting respectfully for the director to approach.
The director of the Jewelry Association was a short, chubby man wearing a benevolent smile.
He walked up to them, lowered his voice, and said, "Let’s hurry and register. The chairman has to bring a distinguished guest for registration today; we shouldn’t delay them."
Upon hearing this, Chi Changjing and his family were startled and quickly replied, "Yes, of course."
After the registration, the director had other business and left.
Chi Changjing and his group walked outside.
Zhao Yuexiu, holding Chi Ruoxi’s membership card, looked it over numerous times.
She couldn’t help but smile with joy, "In the future, our family will have connections not only in the medical field but also in the jewelry industry."
Medicine and jewelry—two of the world’s major industries, and the Chi Family had a stake in both... Although Chi Yan and Chi Ruoxi were just at the entry-level, it was enough to surpass ninety percent of other families.
That was why Zhao Yuexiu and Chi Changjing were so adamant about pulling Chi Ruoxi into this.
As the Chi Family left the Jewelry Association, they coincidentally passed Chi Gui, heading in.
Zhao Yuexiu, along with Chi Yan and Chi Ruoxi, ignored her completely, not even sparing Chi Gui a glance as they walked out. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novęlfire.net
Chi Changjing hesitated slightly before giving Chi Gui a look. Seeing her indifferent expression, showing no intention of speaking to them, he let it be.
Unseen by them, just a short distance behind, as soon as Chi Gui entered, the chairman of the Jewelry Association, Bao Jianfeng, emerged from the elevator.
Following behind him was his assistant. He approached Chi Gui, spoke a few respectful words, and after receiving her nod, took her up in the elevator.
The registration office was on the third floor.
Chi Ruoxi, at just sixteen, joining the Jewelry Association was already a sensation in Huaxia, enough to stir the industry.
The employees at the registration office were still discussing this prodigious young girl.
When the chairman walked in with Chi Gui, the entire registration office went silent for a moment.
The staff had been informed that the chairman would be bringing in a big shot who had passed the entry assessment of the International Jewelry Association today, everyone had thought it would be some designer aged 30+.
She looked to be just in her twenties!
