Qiao Xi had just finished class when her phone vibrated. She took it out to take a look⦠Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. This scumbag, Gu Zheng, had actually taken the initiative to contact her and said that he would give her a surprise tomorrow?
For some reason, Qiao Xi felt that it might not be a surprise but a shock. She was about to leave the classroom when she saw a few figures standing outside.
âQiao Rou, whatâs wrong? Donât cry. Did someone bully you?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The few girls outside the door took turns to comfort Qiao Rou. Qiao Rou leaned against the wall and weakly shed tears. âI didnât do anything. My sister was wronged. I want to apologize to her.â
Wang Qing supported her angrily. âWhy are you always thinking about that b*tch, Qiao Xi? You treat her as your sister, but she doesnât treat you as her sister! I heard that something happened to Qiao Corporation recently because of that b*tch, Qiao Xi? She offended the partner the company was working with and refused to apologize, causing Qiao Corporation to clean up her mess.â
Everyone on campus had long heard that Qiao Corporation was not doing financially well recently, and it seemed that they had offended someone⦠They did not expect that Qiao Xi was the one who caused this trouble. She did not even live with the Qiao family anymore. Even though she sounded like she was cutting ties with the Qiao family, she still had to get the Qiao family to clean up the mess when she got into trouble. It was really unlucky for the Qiao family to have such a daughter!
Speaking of the company, Qiao Rou sighed and explained, âMy sister didnât do it on purpose. She has been playing around outside all these years. Sheâs the eldest daughter of the Qiao family now, but sheâs a little lawless and doesnât know whatâs right and wrong⦠But it doesnât matter. Our company is fine. No matter what trouble my sister has caused, Dad will take responsibility for her. In the future, when Dad is tired and retires, thereâs still me.â
Her words instantly touched the surrounding students. They were all asking why they did not have such a kind and cute sister themselves! They even complained that Qiao Xi had such a good sister but she did not know how to cherish her.
Qiao Xi: ââ¦â
She really wanted to tell them, âCome, Iâll give this younger sister to you. Hurry up and take her away. Why would I want to cherish a younger sister who occasionally has strange thoughts about me and even wants to kill me? Do I not wish to live?â
The instant Qiao Rou raised her head and saw Qiao Xi, she hurriedly walked through the crowd to Qiao Xiâs side. âSister, Iâm sorry. It was my fault just now. Can you forgive me?â
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows, not knowing what tricks Qiao Rou was going to play this time. Logically speaking, Qiao Rouâs reputation in the university was good enough. Whenever any student mentioned her, they would say that she was a gentle goddess, she had a good attitude, and she was good-looking⦠Hence, she really did not need to step on her to improve her own status.
Qiao Rou noticed Qiao Xiâs impatience and hurriedly explained, âSister, donât worry. Iâm not forcing you to forgive me. I just want to express my apology. Itâs fine if you donât accept it, but I want to compensate you. I wonder if youâll agree?â She looked at Qiao Xi carefully with a gaze that was as innocent as a deerâs. This caused the surrounding people to wish for nothing more than to open Qiao Xiâs mouth and force her to forgive Qiao Rou.
Unfortunately, they were only thinking about it in their hearts. Qiao Xiâs imposing aura was too strong, and every time they met her gaze, they would be terrified to the point of shrinking back. Hence, it was impossible for them to grab Qiao Xiâs mouth and make her speak. They didnât have the courage to do it.
They could only sigh at how kind Qiao Rou was compared to Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi shook her head in amusement. Earlier, it was clearly Qiao Rouâs fault and it was normal for her to apologize. However, it seemed that if she did not nod and agree to Qiao Rouâs request now, it would be as if she had committed an unforgivable mistake. She kept saying that she would not force Qiao Xi to forgive her, but in reality, she was forcing Qiao Xi to forgive her.
Her younger sister was really awesome at manipulating people.
âTell me, what kind of compensation is it? Is it money or the shop?â Qiao Xi crossed her arms and asked in a bored tone. Of course, she was purely saying this to disgust Qiao Rou. Qiao Rou was like her mother and felt that everything in the Qiao family belonged to them. They thought of themselves as the rightful owners of the Qiao familyâs assets, so it was best if she could not get anything.
Hence, she did not think that Qiao Rou could give her any good compensation. She absolutely did not expect that the compensation Qiao Rou wanted to give her was this!
âSister⦠The head of the Gu family invited me and Brother Ling to Longwan Residential as guests. You also know that Brother Ling and I are getting married soon. I think the head of the family wants to see me. Can I bring you along? Iâm afraid Iâll be too shy if I go aloneâ¦â Qiao Rou said this pretentiously.
The surrounding people widened their eyes and thought they had misheard. Longwan Residential?! The head of the Gu family?! He invited Qiao Rou over as a guest?! Oh my God!
Qiao Xi: ââ¦â
She just wanted to curse out loud!
