Qiao Xi hummed a tune as she arrived at Mingfeng Hotel, where the Meng family was holding a banquet. She did not enter, not because she did not want to but because she could not.
As she did not have an invitation letter with her, she obediently waited at the door after contacting Qin An.
Qin An might be stuck in a traffic jam on the way here as he had yet to arrive. Qiao Xi frowned. If her third brother did not come over soon, that dog, Gu Zheng, would definitely arrive first. If he saw her, he might even think of a way to kidnap her. She was not afraid of fighting Gu Zheng, but her goal today was to punish the Meng family⦠Therefore, it was better to avoid any conflict with Gu Zheng.
At this moment, Meng Wan, who was welcoming guests not far away, suddenly narrowed her eyes. She complained to the socialites beside her in a low voice, âWhy is she here too?â
Many people who came today were all trying to flatter the Meng family. When they heard Meng Wanâs words, someone quickly replied, âWho are you talking about, Miss Meng?â
Meng Wan raised her chin in Qiao Xiâs direction. âItâs that woman. I donât remember our family giving her an invitation. I donât know why she appeared. She probably wants to find an opportunity to sneak in.â
âWhoâs so shameless to come here without an invitation?â A woman in a white dress said, âMiss Meng, ignore her. Iâll get the security guards to chase her out.â
âSigh.â Meng Wan deliberately sighed. âForget it⦠Youâd better not provoke her. You donât know this but that woman is very scheming. I donât know how she caught Brother Gu Zhengâs eye, but even I have to succumb to herâ¦â
Wang Nuoâs eyes widened as she said in surprise, âMeng Wan, youâre saying that this woman seduced Young Master Gu Zheng? Then isnât she a mistress who interfered in someone elseâs relationship?â
Meng Wan bit her lip. âI donât know why she came either. Maybe it was Brother Gu Zheng who brought her here⦠Forget it, itâs better if we donât meet her. Letâs pretend we didnât see her.â
Wang Nuo had been ordered by her family to suck up to Meng Wan. Of course, she could not ignore what she heard. If she could help Meng Wan chase this woman away, Meng Wan would definitely remember her kindness!
Therefore, Wang Nuo pulled Meng Wanâs hand and said in righteous indignation, âWan Wan, how can you just let it go? I hate mistresses the most. What right does such a person have to join the banquet? Even if she doesnât find it embarrassing to appear in front of the legitimate fiance as a mistress, Iâm disgusted!â
Meng Wan hesitated. âBut Iâm afraid that Brother Gu Zheng will blame me if he finds outâ¦â
Wang Nuo hurriedly said, âItâs fine. Itâs your Meng familyâs banquet today. Donât be afraid of her. Letâs go and chase the mistress away!â
Qiao Xi waited for a while but did not see Qin An. Instead, she saw a group of guests making their way over. Meng Wan was standing in front of the group of women. Qiao Xi did not know anyone from that group.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wang Nuo shielded Meng Wan behind her and snorted. âHow can there be so many shameless women in the world? You clearly know that she has a fiance, yet you still eagerly came looking for her. Itâs already shameless enough to be a mistress, yet you still want to appear in front of the real fiance and flaunt your strength? Youâre really not ashamed at all!â
There were many people at the banquet. There were people coming and going at the door. When they heard Wang Nuoâs words, a lot of them looked over.
Qiao Xi glanced indifferently at Wang Nuo and did not speak. Wang Nuo thought that she was guilty and did not dare to reply, so she became even more arrogant. âWhat? You donât dare to speak?â
Qiao Xi sighed very helplessly and slowly said, âIf you donât need a brain, you can donate it to someone who needs it. The matter hasnât been investigated clearly yet, but youâre calling me a mistress. I wonder whoâs the more embarrassing one. Donât you agree, Miss Meng?â
Meng Wan shuddered.
Yes, Qiao Xi was not a mistress, and Meng Wan was not Gu Zhengâs fiance either. But so what? In the eyes of others, she was Gu Zhengâs fiance, while Qiao Xi, this person who appeared later on, was a mistress who destroyed another personâs relationship!
Wang Nuo quickly reacted. âYou dare to scold me? You, a mistress, actually dare to scold me? Get lost! A person like you shouldnât be attending the Meng familyâs banquet! Donât tarnish the Meng familyâs name!â
Qiao Xi was initially anxious about not being able to enter the banquet, but it seemed now that she did not need to enter at all! Thinking about this, she took out her phone to contact a few people. She then put her phone in her pocket and quietly waited for things to develop.
Meng Wan sighed. âForget it, Nuo Nuo. I know she wonât leave. Letâs not waste our breath on her anymore.â
Wang Nuo gritted her teeth and looked for the security guards at the side. âCome here. Miss Meng didnât invite this woman. Quickly chase her away.â
The security guard did not know Wang Nuo or Qiao Xi, but he knew Meng Wan. He knew that she was the eldest daughter of the Meng family, and the Meng family was holding a banquet in their hotel today. Therefore, he very obediently went forward to chase Qiao Xi away. At this moment, a car steadily stopped in front of the hotel.
