Qiao Yuanxi:â...â
Xie Yun:â...â
âQiao Yuanfei, donât go too far. Youâve been holding a grudge for such a small matter until now. Donât forget, if it werenât for my parents adopting you, you wouldnât even know where you are today!â
Qiao Yuanxi had never suffered such humiliation since he was young, and he was about to flare up.
Before he could finish his sentence, Qiao Yuanfei had already taken out her phone and waved it in front of her.
There were countless missed calls on it. All of them were unknown numbers.
Needless to say, most of them were reporters.
Qiao yuanfei smiled contemptuously. âGuess if I were to make a random call now, would there be a reporter rushing over immediately?â
â...âQiao Yuanxiâs face turned pale.
The word âReporterâwas now her Achillesâheel.
Qiao yuanfei pinched Xie Yun and her daughterâs sore spot and asked on purpose.
âActually, thereâs no need to go through so much trouble. I heard that there are reporters downstairs. If you think that Iâm ungrateful, why donât you let everyone come up and judge me?â
Qiao Yuanxi was not the only one whose face was pale. Xie Yunâs face was also ashen.
Before they came out, Qiao Fangfeng had repeatedly reminded them to bring her back in a low-key manner.
The Qiao Corporationâs stock price had fallen to its lowest point after the opening of trading for two consecutive days. It could no longer afford any scandals.
âXixi, for the Qiao familyâs sake, when itâs time to swallow oneâs pride, you have to swallow oneâs pride. Are you afraid that you wonât be able to teach her a lesson in the future?âXie Yun lowered her voice and reminded her.
âBut, she asked me to kneel down for her...â
Qiao Yuanxi was still unwilling, but when she thought about how she would not even have the chance to turn the tables in the future if the Qiao family fell, she could only clench her teeth and walk forward.
Kneeling in front of the coffee table, she kowtowed three times towards the photo.
âAre you satisfied now?â
âItâs Alright, but three isnât enough. You said two sentences just now, so there are still two more kowtows to go.âQiao Yuanxi sipped his water slowly and reminded her.
Qiao yuanxi: âYou!â
Qiao yuanfei: âAdd another one.â
Qiao Yuanxi:â...â
Qiao Yuanxiâs face turned red and he wanted to pounce on Qiao Yuanfei and tear her apart.
In the end, he had no choice but to lower his head and kowtow three more times.
Just as he was about to get up from the coffee table, Qiao Yuanfeiâs hand tilted and a cup of water was poured onto her body.
The warm tea made Qiao Yuanxi immediately let out a pig-like cry.
She got up from the ground and shook her clothes without caring about her image.
âQiao Yuanfei, how dare you throw hot water at me, I...â
âBang!â
Qiao yuanfei placed the cup in her hand on the coffee table and stood up from the sofa.
She looked at Qiao Yuanxi who was stunned and bent down slightly, reaching out to lift her chin.
âIf I see any more pictures of you touching my parents, what I throw at you will not be warm water, but hot water that has just been boiled!â
â...â
Qiao Yuanxi was so scared that her face turned green.
She widened her eyes and looked at Qiao yuanfei, who was full of energy. She could not believe that this was the person she had always known.
She was just an orphan adopted by the Qiao family. Why was she more noble than her?
Xie Yun was also surprised.
She felt that Qiao Yuanfei was a completely different person.
Seeing her daughter being bullied, she wasnât happy either.
But when she thought of Qiao Fangfengâs instructions, she held back her dissatisfaction and went up to persuade him.
âYouâve finished kowtowing and apologizing. Shouldnât you pack your things and go back with us?â
âWhen did I agree to go back with you?âQiao Yuanfei took a step back and sat on the sofa again.
Her legs crossed elegantly and she looked at the sullen Xie Yunmu and her daughter with a smile.
