Xu Mei said that after Moling broke off the engagement with Qiao Xi, Qiao Xi had casually married someone else. She heard that the man had no house or car. He was so poor as he was just an ordinary worker.
Qiao Rouâs face was filled with pride. If Qiao Xi did not marry Zhong Ming, she would have to be the wife of a normal worker. She would have no power or influence. Meanwhile, she would be Gu Molingâs wife, the mistress of the Gu family. Qiao Xi would never be able to compare to her.
Although Gu Moling was only a member of the Gu branch family, he was also a member of Li Cityâs high society. Qiao Xi was not worthy to be compared to her at all. Any piece of clothing she bought would cost as much as the annual salary of Qiao Xiâs poor husband.
Thinking of this, Qiao Rou smiled proudly, but she still wiped her tears and pretended to be sad. âSister, I just donât want you to suffer. If you marry Young Master Thong, you can live a carefree life and wonât have to suffer with that man anymore!â
Everyoneâs expressions eased, and they could not help but nod.
âRou Rou is kind-hearted. Sheâs only thinking for her sisterâs sake. She wants her to have a good home!â
âYoung Master Gu was originally Qiao Xiâs fiance. Now that Rou Rou and Young
Master Gu are about to get married, Rou Rou feels guilty, so she wants to help
Qiao Xi get married.â
âWeâve misunderstood Rou Rou. â
Qiao Rou said gently, âSister, if youâre unwilling, then forget it. I wonât force you either, but now that the Thong family has already given the betrothal gifts, what should we do?!â
âNo! You have to marry him!â Old Madam Qiao roared. âQiao Xi, weâre all your relatives. How could we harm you? Whatâs so good about marrying a poor man?
Youâre lucky that Young Master Thong likes you. This is your blessing!â
Qiao Rou also chimed in, âSister, Brother Moling and I are about to get married. I canât bear to see you marry an ordinary worker. Donât you like money the most? Young Master Thong is rich. You can enjoy life if you marry him.â
Hearing everyoneâs persuasion, Qiao Xi still had a disdainful expression. It instantly infuriated the members of the Thong family.
âQiao Xi! Donât be so shameless! Itâs your honor that my son is willing to marry you.
If you dare to cancel the marriage and hurt my sonâs heart, Iâll absolutely not let
you offYâ
Madam Zhong threatened, and the old madam beside her was so anxious that she stomped her feet. âQiao Xi! Hurry up and get a divorce. Youâll be marrying Young Master Thong next month, yet you secretly got married. You didnât even tell your family about it, you bastard!â
(Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. âI like money?â
Everyone was stunned. She said casually, âI do like money.â
The Thong family thought that she was going to give in and smiled smugly.
Thong Mingâs face was fierce, and his gaze was wretched. âBaby Xi Xi, as long as you serve me with all your heart, Iâll definitely not treat you badly. Donât you like money? How much do you want? Iâll give it to you!â
Madam Thong nodded as well, âAs long as you marry my son, youâll be responsible for serving him. Iâll fulfill your wish no matter how much money you want to spend.â
Thong Mingâs eyes were filled with infatuation. âBaby Xi Xi, listen to me. Quickly divorce that poor bastard and cut off all contact with your third brother from now on. Iâll dote on you well.â
âAlso, after you marry someone in the future, youâre not allowed to wear short skirts when you go out. Youâre not allowed to show your shoulders and neck.
Youâre not allowed to meet any men. In short, youâre not allowed to go out unless my son is with you. Your mission is to make my son happy. Nothing else matters.â Madam Thong said word by word, and Qiao Xiâs eyes darkened.
Thong Ming leaned closer and said with his disgusting mouth, âAs long as you serve me obediently, Iâll be happy. Iâll agree to anything.â
âYoung Master Thong is so ugly, but he sure thinks highly of himselflâ
At this moment, a cold voice came from outside the door. A chill invaded everyoneâs hearts.
The manâs voice was cold. âIâve always been arrogant, but even I donât dare to make demands from Mrs. Gu like this. Young Master Thong, what right do you have to ask for so much from Mrs. Cru?â
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall man slowly walking in with a suppressive aura. His heavy footsteps stepped on everyoneâs hearts.
What did this person say? He was... Qiao Xiâs husband? He actually dared to mock Young Master Thong in public?
Madam Thong was about to curse when she saw her husband and the Qiao familyâs old madam turn pale and tremble slightly.
The man in front of her was like a god who had descended. His cold eyes swept across the room, causing everyone to stop breathing..n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
