Bang! Bang! Xu Mei instantly felt dizzy and she gritted her teeth in hatred.
It was all Qiao Xi’s fault!
Who would have thought that she would be so lucky? She had even climbed up the ladder by clinging to Qin An. In the future, wouldn’t Qiao Xi trample on the two of them?
“A mistress still dares to frame the legitimate daughter? Qiao Zhenguo is really muddle-headed. He actually helped his mistress harm his own daughter?”
“President Qian is an old hoodlum. Xu Mei sold Qiao Xi to him to torture her to death!”
The crowd’s criticisms reached Xu Mei’s ears. She could no longer pretend and abruptly opened her eyes.
Qiao Xi slowly walked in front of Xu Mei, bent down, and said softly in her ear, “You hate me to death, right? But you don’t dare to touch me. You even have to kowtow and apologize to me because Qin An is protecting me!”
Xu Mei and Qiao Rou glared at her fiercely.
A scene suddenly flashed past their minds.
More than ten years ago, when Qiao Xi was chased out by them, Xu Mei had stood in front of her and forced her to kneel.
‘Little b*tch! You hate me to death, right? Unfortunately, the Qiao family will belong to me and my daughter in the future, while you have to stay in the countryside for the rest of your life. You might die there before you reach adulthood!
‘Don’t waste your effort. No one in the Qiao family can save you. Your father knows everything that I’ve done. The old madam loves Rou Rou and won’t care about you. You’d better die outside and never return to the Qiao family again!’
Qiao Xi had knelt on the ground and silently swore in her heart that sooner or later, she would make Xu Mei and her daughter kneel in front of her and beg for mercy.
After Xu Mei drove her away, she took Qiao Rou to enjoy everything that should rightfully belong to her and her mother. They even occupied all of her assets.
She did not care about returning to the Qiao family, but only by taking back everything that belonged to the Qiao family could she make Xu Mei and her daughter suffer.
The scene from more than ten years ago was still vivid in her mind. Qiao Xi’s eyes were deep. “Aunt Xu, every dog has its day. It has only been ten years but I’ve already made you guys kneel in front of me and beg me for mercy. Moreover, from today onward, all of you have to humble yourselves when you see me.
“All of you, remember to be more polite when you see me in the future. Otherwise, I can destroy you with just my finger!”
Xu Mei’s eyes widened in anger as her body trembled. Her breathing quickened, and she convulsed twice before fainting.
“Mom!”
“Xu Mei!” Qiao Zhenguo’s face was filled with sorrow. However, he could not do anything because Qin An’s pistol was still pressed against his forehead.
Qin An glanced at him in disdain and put down the pistol in his hand. “Carry her out! Don’t dirty my territory!”
Little Six had said that he did not want the Qiao family to die so easily, that she wanted them to suffer pain and torture, so he would spare their lives first.
There was still time…
In any case, since the Qiao family had found out about her identity, they would no longer dare to be disrespectful toward her. Whenever they saw her, they would have to kneel and kowtow to her.
How did they feel when they saw Qiao Xi, the person they had once looked down on, suddenly become the daughter of the Qin family?
Qiao Rou looked at the high and mighty Qiao Xi and gnashed her teeth in hatred.
No! It was not over yet!
She still had a chance!
Qin An was nothing. Her fiancé was the young master of the Gu family!
The Gu family was an existence that even Qin An did not dare to touch!
…
After the Qiao family was chased out of Fragrance Hotel, everyone dispersed.
Qiao Xi bade farewell to the others before leaving through the back door of Fragrance Hotel.
She was in a good mood today and definitely wanted to eat barbecue. Although she had not recovered her taste buds, she salivated when she thought about the sizzling meat.
Just as she was about to leave, she bumped into a hard chest.
Qiao Xi raised her eyes. “…”
Gu Zheng lowered his eyes, his gaze deep. There was a cigarette between his fingers, and he extinguished it in one smooth action. He said softly, “Mrs. Gu, I’ve wronged you.”
At this moment, Qiao Xi’s thoughts vaguely sounded.
‘Why is this bastard Gu Zheng here? It must be Zhou Guanjin who told him! I want to eat barbecue! How can I eat if he’s here? Isn’t he the president? Why is he so free every day? Does Gu Corporation have nothing to do? At this rate, they’ll go bankrupt sooner or later! If they go bankrupt, I won’t have money to eat barbecue anymore!’
Qiao Xi was silent for a moment before she said slowly, “Ah Zheng, you’re here to pick me up, right? I’m so happy you’re here!”
