Li Dai was taken aback for just a moment before a thought-provoking curve formed at the corner of his mouth.
French is a very challenging language and is one of the ten most difficult languages in the world to learn.
Does Ni Yang really speak French?
It seems to be just for the sake of saving face.
Isn’t there such a saying in our country?
Losing face to live a life of suffering.
Li Dai felt that in Ni Yang, one could see all the shortcomings of the girls from our country.
Ignorant, pedantic, old-fashioned, with an extremely strong vanity...
Besides that face, there was really no other highlight on her entire body.
With this thought in mind, Li Dai shifted his gaze away from Ni Yang, quite curious to see how Ni Yang would handle the situation later.
Zhou Zixian’s lips were also curved in a smile.
Du Jiaojiao tugged at the hem of her dress and whispered, "What are you doing? Did you do that on purpose?"
Zhou Zixian’s face changed instantly as she said, "Oh my god! Second sister, how could you think that! Miss Ni is our father’s benefactor, I can’t thank her enough, let alone deliberately harm her?"
"Then why did you push her to the front?" Du Jiaojiao continued to ask.
In front of so many people, even the slightest mistake could be difficult for Ni Yang to handle gracefully.
One must know, all the dignitaries and nobles of Beijing are here tonight.
Zhou Zixian replied, "Miss Ni herself is quite impressive! I haven’t said anything wrong, and Yaoyao is a relative from my maternal home, I should think of some ways to help at times like this! I couldn’t just stand here watching the excitement, right?"
Du Jiaojiao’s expression wasn’t looking good as she said sternly, "You better not have done it on purpose!"
Zhou Zixian raised three fingers, "Second sister, I swear to heaven, I really didn’t do it deliberately, I just wanted to address the issue."
As she spoke, Zhou Zixian continued, "Second sister, don’t worry! Miss Ni is so capable, a little French will surely not confound her, and besides, she said herself that she speaks French; if she didn’t, she wouldn’t have taken on the task! So, you really don’t need to worry about her."
In Zhou Zixian’s eyes, Du Jiaojiao was just an old maid who couldn’t find a husband, she wasn’t afraid of Du Jiaojiao in the slightest.
The real power holder in the Du Family was Grandfather Du.
Du Jiaojiao was just an idler living off her family.
As long as she kept a firm hold on Grandfather Du, that was enough.
Soon, the groom returned with the script in hand and said, "Miss Ni, here you go!"
Ni Yang took the script and swiftly scanned through it.
