At this moment, Xia Mengyan walked out and comforted Old Master Xia softly. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. Maybe you’ve misunderstood Xi Xi. Even if this porcelain sculpture is fake, Xi Xi wouldn’t have sold the real one. Young Master Luo might have made a mistake.”

When Xia Cheng heard this, he was even more unable to suppress the anger in his heart. “Mengyan! At this point, you’re the only one who’s still defending Qiao Xi! How could Young Master Luo have made a mistake? She actually sold the porcelain sculpture that he personally gave her and used a fake to fool us. She’s really shameless and has embarrassed our Xia family!”

Xia Mengyan’s eyes were filled with pride, but her voice was choked. “Grandpa, Xi Xi wouldn’t have done that. She wouldn’t have…”

!!

“Qiao Xi! We shouldn’t have believed you back then! I thought that you would take the matter of Miss Yunqiu’s designs very seriously. I didn’t expect that for the sake of earning money, you would actually sell the porcelain sculpture Young Master Luo gave you! Do you still care about the Xia family?! You’re really too much!”

The angry voices of everyone from Xia Corporation kept coming. Everyone stood up and glared at her.

Everyone had gathered happily today and was waiting to witness the collaboration between the Luo and Xia families. This was the Xia family’s honor, but now, the family had lost their dignity with Qiao Xi and could not raise their heads.

Xia Ji’s assistant said anxiously, “After all, Miss Qiao is still young and doesn’t understand how important this collaboration is to the Xia family. Moreover, this is her first time being in charge of such a large collaboration. It’s inevitable that she’ll be tempted by money. However, if it was Miss Xia in charge of this collaboration, such a low-level mistake wouldn’t have happened. Miss Xia, you definitely wouldn’t have disregarded the family’s reputation for a little bit of money!”

His meaning was very obvious. He wanted everyone to know that Xia Mengyan was the most suitable candidate to be the person in charge. A wild girl like Qiao Xi did not have the ability to be in charge of such a large project.

Moreover, Qiao Xi was just an outsider. She would not take the Xia family’s reputation and honor seriously.

Xia Cheng’s eyes were bloodshot, and he was almost devoured by anger. He ignored everyone’s gazes and shouted, “Qiao Xi! Tell me, where’s the porcelain sculpture?”

If she took out the porcelain sculpture now, the situation could still be salvaged. However, if the Luo family found out that she had sold the porcelain sculpture to profit from it, would the Luo and Xia families still be able to continue working together?

At this moment, Xia Cheng did not have many extravagant hopes. He only asked Qiao Xi to hand over the intact porcelain sculpture. Otherwise, not only would the Xia family lose all their dignity but they would also have offended the Luo family. He even felt that Qiao Xi was deliberately making the Xia family make a fool of themselves for the sake of taking revenge on them.

Qiao Xi crossed her arms over her chest as if she was watching a good show. It was as if everything before her had nothing to do with her.

Xia Cheng was probably about to break down at this moment, but she did not want to ruin this collaboration completely. After all, those designs were her mother’s blood, sweat, and tears. It was a good thing to recreate her mother’s works through the Luo family. Neither she nor Xia Cheng wanted this collaboration to be canceled, so she would not deliberately take revenge on the Xia family through this collaboration. However…

Someone did want to take revenge on her through this collaboration!

She had long seen through Xia Mengyan’s plan. She was just giving Xia Mengyan a chance to execute her plan and see the anxious and helpless expressions of the Xia family. However, she would not take the blame.

She was not the one who embarrassed the Xia family. It was Xia Mengyan, who had schemed everything but accidentally injured her own family!

The smile on Qiao Xi’s face grew wider and wider. She glanced at everyone, straightened her back, and replied coldly, “Chairman Xia, this is the real deal.”

The surroundings were silent as everyone looked at her in shock. People had already stood up to expose her, yet she still refused to let go. How could there be such a person?

Xia Cheng’s face alternated between red and green, and he was angered to the point his body trembled. He never expected Qiao Xi to be so shameless. Even now, she was actually unwilling to admit it. Did she think that everyone else was blind?

Waves of ridicule from the surroundings entered his ears, and his ears buzzed. He pointed at Qiao Xi while trembling and roared furiously. “Don’t you have any shame?! How did Yunqiu raise such a bastard like you?! You dare to do it but don’t dare to admit it, huh? You’ve already been exposed, so why are you still pretending?! Qiao Xi! I advise you to quickly admit your mistake and get the item back. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences!

“The opening ceremony today was supposed to be a joyous occasion. I wouldn’t have asked you to do anything else as long as you could take out the porcelain sculpture for everyone to see. However, you actually ruined the Xia family’s ceremony for money. You unfilial daughter, get out of the Xia family!”

Everyone’s faces were filled with disdain. Many noblewomen were even pointing at Xia Yunlou. “Xia Yunlou is Qiao Xi’s biological mother, right? How did she give birth to such a daughter?!”
