The car was silent for a long time. Qiao Xi secretly raised her head to look, and when she noticed that Gu Zhengâs expression had not changed, she could not help but let out a sigh of relief. It looked like this was the end of the matter. Gu Zheng must not be interested in her dead fiance.
Qiao Xi looked out of the window and said with a smile, âGu Zheng, can you stop the car here? Iâm goingâ¦â
Before she could finish, the car drove past the place.
Qiao Xi: ââ¦â
At this moment, Gu Zheng said slowly, âJust pretend that Iâm old and canât hear you. Or you can just pretend that Iâm dead.â
Qiao Xi: ââ¦â
Why was he saying the things she said about her fiance to her? Did he think that what she said was fake? How was that possible? She said it so sincerely!

The news that the Meng family had gotten their hands on Master Gu Shanâs gown, âTime Flowsâ, spread throughout high society overnight.
All the families who were on good terms with the Meng family or were involved in the fashion industry had received the Meng familyâs invitation. The Qiao family was no exception. Qiao Xi and Third Brother had agreed on a meeting location. That was when she found out that he actually had business in Qiao Corporation.
Qiao Xi was surprised. âWhen did you get involved with Qiao Corporation?â
Third Brother said lazily, âLetâs go to Qiao Corporation to vent your anger.â
Qiao Xi chuckled and left with Third Brother. She did not know what was wrong with that fellow Gu Zheng recently. He looked at her with disdain and even spoke in a strange tone. She did not want to be around Gu Zheng. Since Third Brother was here, she would hang out with him.
After knowing that Qiao Xi had run off with her third brother, Gu Zheng sneered and tossed the contract in his hand aside. He closed his eyes to calm down for a while before saying, âSong Shiyu.â
âPresident Gu, what can I do for you?â
âContact Senior Shang and ask if the third brother has been too free recently.â
Snatching someone right in front of his eyes? So what if he was Qiao Xiâs third brother? Qiao Xi was already married, so her husband was the most important person now!
Song Shiyuâs expression was indescribable.
âPresident Gu, even if Madam is the sixth daughter, you canât take her for granted! Isnât this adding oil to the fire?! Madam doesnât have a good impression of you to begin with. If you donât improve your image and court death by provoking her third brother, your future brother-in-lawâ¦â
Song Shiyu thought that President Gu was going to ruin himself. He might even lose his wife.
âAlsoâ¦â Gu Zheng suddenly thought of something and slowly instructed, âThat dress from the Meng family is fake. You know what to do, right? â
Song Shiyu was shocked. The Meng familyâs dress was fake? How dare they display a fake dress? Did they not want their lives anymore?
Of course, President Gu was even more impressive. He actually wanted to announce this matter to the public. He was not showing the Meng family any respect at all. The Gu family and the Meng family had quite a number of collaborations, so it would not do them much good if the Meng family collapsed at this time. Thinking about benefits, Song Shiyu wanted to persuade Gu Zheng to be careful.
However, Gu Zhengâs next sentence was, âThe Meng family was careless and offended her. They deserve to die.â
Song Shiyu shut up immediately.
It turned out that President Gu was angry because of the madam. Then, there was no problem.

Below the building of Qiao Corporation, Third Brother went to park the car while Qiao Xi waited downstairs. After a while, Third Brother rushed over angrily. âI donât know whatâs wrong with Master this time. He suddenly called to scold me and said that I stole that big shotâs wife. Pfft!â
Why would a single man like him snatch his wife?!
Qiao Xi was stunned as well. âHuh?â
âI stole his wife? Do I have a living female creature by my side? How could I have snatched his wife? Little Six, do you think that big shot is crazy? Does he hate me, so he deliberately complained to our master?â
Qiao Xi wanted to nod, but she could not.
She thought that she fulfilled the conditions Third Brother just listed out⦠She was a living female, after all⦠However, how could she be the wife of a big shot?!
Qiao Xi and Third Brother shared a common enemy. âThatâs right, itâs definitely that big shot whoâs jealous of you. Heâs jealous that youâre young and handsome!â
Third Brother thought that Qiao Xiâs analysis made sense. âAlright, wait for me. Iâll go upstairs to get something before sending you to the Meng familyâs banquet.â
Just then, a familiar voice sounded behind him. âPresident Qin?â
Qin An turned around and happened to meet Qiao Zhenguoâs smiling face. âPresident Qin, why are you here at Qiao Corporation? Have you considered working together with Qiao Corporation?â
Qin An nodded coldly. âThatâs right. I think Qiao Corporation is pretty good.â
