Chapter 1488 How Unlucky

"Jichuan is a good child. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have offended anyone. It's probably a misunderstanding," Kang Ru muttered to himself.

Old Madam Kang, who was at the side, thought carefully. She knew Jichuan and Qingzhi well. The two children had gentle personalities. Moreover, Qingzhi was weak and sickly. She rarely went out, so it was impossible for her to offend anyone.

After thinking about it, Old Madam Kang suddenly thought of someone. Qiao Xi had lived in Li City for so many years and was arrogant and despotic. She must have offended someone. Perhaps the boss of Fragrance Hotel knew about their relationship with Qiao Xi, so he did not allow them to enter.

Old Madam Kang's eyes turned cold. "Ah Ru, could it be that Qiao Xi offended someone?"

When Kang Ru heard Qiao Xi's name, he immediately retorted, "Impossible! Xi Xi… How could Xi Xi…"

Old Madam Kang snorted unhappily. "You've only been in Li City for a short while, but Qiao Xi has been staying here for 20 years. Moreover, Jichuan and Qingzhi are obedient and sensible. They wouldn't have caused trouble in Li City, much less damage the Kang family's reputation. It must be that little b*tch…"

She gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "She's arrogant. It's not strange for her to offend someone in Li City. I knew it. She's a jinx. She actually implicated us and made us unable to enter Fragrance Hotel. I told you not to bring her back to the Kang family. How long has it been and such a thing has already happened?!"

Kang Ru lowered his head and explained weakly, "It can't be Xi Xi…"

"Why not? We don't know the boss of Fragrance Hotel at all. On the other hand, Qiao Xi has lived in Li City for so many years. She must have come to Fragrance Hotel for a meal before!" Old Madam Kang's voice was sharp, and her expression was vicious. "Your daughter hasn't even officially returned to the Kang family yet, yet she's already implicated us and made us lose our reputation. I don't know what will happen when she returns to the Kang family!"

Old Madam Tang was burning with anger. The people around her heard her words and recognized them as nobles of Y Nation. From what Old Madam Tang said, Miss Qiao did not grow up by Mr. Kang's side. Now that they had just acknowledged each other, it would indeed be infuriating if Mr. Kang and Old Madam Kang were chased out of Fragrance Hotel because of Miss Qiao.

At this moment, Old Madam Kang could not care less about her image anymore. She said angrily, "She caused Qingzhi to suffer previously, and now, she's causing us to lose our dignity. She hasn't even officially entered our family but has already caused us trouble. Everyone knows that the boss of Fragrance Hotel has a noble status. She actually offended such a person. She's a jinx. Whoever touches her will be unlucky!"

Kang Ru lowered his head and felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Old Madam Qiao scolding Qiao Xi. However, they had just arrived in Li City and indeed did not know the boss of Fragrance Hotel. Xi Xi was probably the only one who knew him. Could it be that it was really her?

Seeing this, Kang Ru could only comfort her softly. "Mom, don't be angry. Xi Xi lacks discipline, after all. When she returns to the Kang family, I'll educate her well."

Old Madam Kang's face was ferocious, and her eyes were filled with viciousness. "That little b*tch! If I see her, I'll definitely—"

Suddenly, Old Madam Kang's voice stopped abruptly as she stared fixedly at Qiao Xi, who had gotten out of the car. Gu Zheng elegantly opened the car door for her and held the girl's hand intimately while smiling gently at her.

In an instant, Old Madam Kang's anger surged!

"Qiao Xi!"

Everyone's gazes looked at the two people at the door. When they saw the man's handsome face clearly, their hearts trembled. Before they could react, Old Madam Kang pointed at Qiao Xi and roared angrily, "Get over here!"

Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment. How unlucky! Why was the Kang family still here at a time like this?

Gu Zheng's gentle expression instantly darkened. He exuded the domineering aura of a king as a chill lingered around him. "Mr. Kang, what do you mean by this?"

Kang Ru looked at Qiao Xi, then at the young man standing at the door to welcome the guests. The other party did not seem to have any intention of chasing Qiao Xi away. He was silent for a few seconds before he frowned and asked, "Xi Xi, did you offend…"

"Who else could it be? Who are you to speak to my son like this?" Old Madam Kang pointed at Gu Zheng, her tone arrogant. Then, she glared at Qiao Xi with widened eyes and roared, "Qiao Xi! Come here! Don't you know how to greet your elders? You're really uneducated!"

"Who are you?" Qiao Xi asked casually.

Seeing her indifferent appearance, Old Madam Kang was infuriated. She glared fiercely at Qiao Xi and gritted her teeth. "You wretched girl, why are you pretending? Do you not know who I am?"
