2141 Trash, Mother Xie Is Too Embarrassed
Gu San also chimed in, “Young Master Qin, you didn’t remember wrongly. This brand is under Miss Qiao. Some time ago, Cheng Feng Corporation even gave Miss Qiao many new products. It’s just that Miss Qiao doesn’t like to wear them usually. They’re piled up in the storeroom of our villa.”
“Oh.” Qin Si deliberately glanced at Mother Xie and Xie Xinyao and said in surprise, “Those are not second-hand?”
Gu San knew his personality too well. “Young Master Qin, what are you talking about? Miss Qiao can’t even finish putting on all her new products. How can she use second-hand ones?”
“I see.” Qin Si patted his head and smiled at Mother Xie and Xie Xinyao. “I’m sorry, the two of you. Our Sister Qiao doesn’t care about second-hand goods. Why don’t you take this brooch back? If she wants these things, even if they’re not from this brand, I can give them to her. It’s just a brooch. Our family is poor, but we can still afford it.”
The Qin family was famous for being rich in Beijing!
Qin Si had grown up in a honey pot. Everyone in Beijing knew that Young Master Qin was not short of money.
A brooch worth more than a million yuan might only be worth one yuan or two yuan in Qin Si’s eyes. He usually liked to shout that he was poor. He was just talking glibly and entertaining himself.
He really did not lack money.
However, even if a child raised by the Qin family did not lack money, they did not like to flaunt their wealth like a nouveau riche.
When he said that his family was poor, he was clearly mocking Mother Xie and Xie Xinyao. He was just using words to mock and disgust them.
Another reason was that Qin Si was defending Qiao Nian.
He usually could not bear to let Qiao Nian suffer. How could he tolerate outsiders publicly making a cheap shot and a cheap trick to disgust her?
Ye Wangchuan was calmer. However, his eyes were dark as he looked at Mother Xie and Xie Xinyao. His smile also faded. “Maybe they’re not short of money.”
What could be the reason for a person who did not lack money to send a second-hand good to congratulate someone? It could only be that they looked down on the other party from the bottom of their hearts!
Mother Xie explained awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I took the wrong gift.”
Xie Xinyao clenched her fists. She was so humiliated that she wished she could retaliate.
“Sister-in-law, did you really take the wrong gift?”
Xie Tingyun was not stupid at all to be able to enter the research institute and the laboratory back then. It was just that she had always tolerated the Xie family.
Mother Xie was her sister-in-law.
As long as Mother Xie did not go overboard, she would usually tolerate her.
But this time, Xie Tingyun was extremely disappointed in her.
Her emotions faded a lot as she looked at Mother Xie, and she said indifferently, “I’ll get Tianyi to send you back.”
“Tingyun!” Mother Xie was shocked and hurriedly tried to defend her actions.
Xie Tingyun clearly did not want to talk to her anymore. She said concisely, “Let me make things clear today. My arrangements and plans are my business. The Xie family has no right to interfere. Even if the Old Madam comes, she can’t interfere, let alone you and my brother!”
Mother Xie’s expression changed, and her face twitched violently.
Xie Tingyun had never spoken so harshly.
She did not give her any face this time.
“Also, I gave Xinyao a chance. She didn’t pass. This is what she’s made for in the research institute. Even if I teach her, she can only reach this level. You don’t have to think about those things. She won’t be able to learn anything from me.”
If Xie Xinyao had been unfazed by everything that had been said previously, she could not accept it at all now that Xie Tingyun said that.
She couldn’t help but ask, “What about her?”
