Chapter 95: Qiao Xi Doesn’t Know What’s Good For Her
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Meng Wan slammed the phone onto the floor and rushed toward Qiao Xi. “I’m not apologizing. I won’t apologize even if I die. It’s all your fault. It’s all because of you. Die!”
“Since you don’t want to apologize, then don’t apologize.” Qiao Xi turned her body and dodged, but the smile on her face remained unchanged. “I don’t quite agree with Madam Meng’s claim that it’s a joke. It’s harmless if others were to joke around, but if the Meng family’s idea of joking around is sending someone to prison, I can’t afford such a joke.”
With that, she gently leaned over to Madam Meng’s ear. “Actually, Madam Meng, you must be very puzzled about why the manager you arranged suddenly betrayed you and revealed the hidden surveillance footage, right?”
Madam Meng gasped. She did not understand this question.
Qiao Xi said softly, “Although Mingfeng Hotel is under the Meng family’s name, don’t you know who the real owner is?”
Madam Meng widened her eyes.
The manager listened to all of Qiao Xi’s instructions. Could it be that this hotel was related to Qiao Xi? How was this possible?!
Qiao Xi raised her brows. “It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not, but it’s the truth. Since you’ve come to your senses, then quickly take Miss Meng away and don’t be an eyesore in front of me. Of course, all of you can also stay to enjoy this last moment of glory. This hotel will probably be taken back soon, right? Your Meng family… is truly stupid.”
Madam Meng gasped. She seemed to have thought of something as her expression changed drastically. “Let’s go. Meng Wan! Follow me right now!” With that, she ignored Meng Wan’s struggles and forcefully brought her away.
Meng Wan’s eyes turned red. “Qiao Xi, just you wait! Just you wait!”
The mother and daughter of the Meng family fled. The audience was stunned for a while. Then, someone reacted. “Shouldn’t we leave too?”
“Yes, things have already become like this. The Meng family’s banquet won’t be able to continue anymore.”
“Let’s go, let’s go. Everyone is here for connections, but the Meng family’s way of doing things gives me goosebumps. If we work with such people, we might end up getting stabbed in the back. If that happens, we can only blame ourselves for getting stabbed in the back.”
What they valued the most when they looked for partners was that person’s character. No one liked two-faced partners like the Meng family.
The lively banquet was soon empty.
The manager rushed forward. “Sixth Miss.”
Qiao Xi stretched. “How boring. The show hasn’t even started yet, yet these people are already giving up.”
The manager’s mouth twitched. “Sixth Miss, calm down. The knife in Meng Wan’s hand was real. You don’t know how scared I was when I saw her take it out.”
Fortunately, Meng Wan only wanted to frame Qiao Xi and did not stab her with it.
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. What was there to be afraid of? Would that weakling, Meng Wan, be able to hurt her? If it were not because she was deliberately playing along, Meng Wan wouldn’t have been able to place that knife in her hand. It was just that after playing around for so long, the fact that the dress was fake had yet to be revealed. Qiao Xi felt as though she was not doing her job perfectly.
She shook her head and asked the manager, “Where’s that scumbag, Gu Zheng? Wasn’t he still here just now?”
…
In the banquet hall.
Old Master Meng already knew about everything. He looked at Meng Wan without any change in expression. “Bring her back first.”
Meng Xingzhou wanted to plead. “Dad…”
“Framing someone in public… The surveillance footage clearly recorded it as well. Do you think you can cover up for this matter just because you want to?” Old Master Meng waved his hand. “While Qiao Xi isn’t calculative, bring Meng Wan back to the Meng family first. Don’t let her go out for the time being. Let’s talk after the storm subsides.”
This was disguised detention.
No matter how unwilling Meng Wan was, she did not dare to retort her grandfather’s words. She could only cry and follow her mother home.
Meng Xingzhou’s expression was ugly. “Dad, I’m sorry about this. I really didn’t expect Qiao Xi to not know what’s good for her. I also didn’t know that she would be so difficult to deal with at such a young age. It’s normal for Meng Wan to suffer when faced with that girl…”
“Don’t know what’s good for her? So difficult to deal with at such a young age?”
Gu Zheng pushed the door open and entered. His gaze swept coldly across the members of the Meng family present. His steps were steady, and every move he made carried an invisible pressure. Without needing anyone to greet him, he walked to the seat at the front and sat down. His eyes narrowed. “Mr. Meng, tell me, what do you mean by Qiao Xi not knowing what’s good for her? Would you only be satisfied if Qiao Xi had obediently let herself be framed by your daughter and be pressed to the ground to be bullied?”
Meng Xingzhou choked. “Gu Zheng…”
