1606 Bullying Others
Gu Zheng curled his lips gently and leaned closer to unbuckle his seatbelt. He placed one hand behind her head and planted a kiss on her forehead with his slightly cold lips. His voice was hoarse. “Xi Xi, I’m your husband.”
Qiao Xi raised her eyes and looked at him with slight doubt.
“Your matter is my matter, but you never want to trouble me. I heard that being willing to rely on someone means that you trust that person very much, so I hope you can rely on me.” Gu Zheng stared at her with a burning gaze as he spoke word by word.
Qiao Xi also looked at him seriously. “Ah Zheng, who did you hear that from?
“Could it be Song Shiyu?” The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth twitched. “Can you stop listening to Song Shiyu’s nonsense?”
Gu Zheng: “”
Qiao Xi’s fingertip landed on his lips and gently stroked them. She smiled and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to rely on you, but if you go, the Kang family will say that I’m bullying others!”
“But they’re still bullying a young lady like you just because they’re a noble family from Y Nation!” Gu Zheng grabbed her hand and kissed it. Then, he said gently, “You have a point. If I go, I’ll cause you trouble.”
Qiao Xi hurriedly nodded. Actually, there was another reason why she did not let Gu Zheng go. She could not ruin her weak image in Gu Zheng’s heart. Moreover, Gu Zheng was already busy with various matters. The Brooke family alone was already enough to trouble him. She could not add to his worries because of her.
After Qiao Xi left, Gu Zheng also got out of the car, his deep eyes filled with maliciousness.
Kang Ru and Old Madam Kang sat on the stage. The reporters asked, “Mr. Kang, is Miss Qiao Xi really your biological daughter?”
“I heard that you found Miss Qiao Xi five years ago. Why didn’t you announce her identity?”
“Miss Qiao knows about her relationship with the Kang family but schemed against you. Mr. Kang, will you still acknowledge her as your daughter now?”
Kang Ru had long thought of how to answer. He was unhurried and said gently, “Five years ago, my mother and I went overseas. Jichuan found Xi Xi, but in order to surprise me, he didn’t tell me. He made the arrangements for Xi Xi to come over. He even went to her university to pick her up every day. However, Xi Xi only went for a few days before throwing a tantrum and refusing to go to the university. Jichuan didn’t want his sister to neglect her studies, so he hired a tutor for her. However, Xi Xi hated the lessons and had a conflict with the tutor. Qingzhi went forward to stop her, but she was pushed down the stairs by Xi Xi. Although Qingzhi managed to survive, she fell into a coma.
“Qingzhi has been weak and sick since she was young, and Jichuan has always taken good care of her. When he found out that Xi Xi had hurt Qingzhi, he asked Xi Xi to apologize. However, not only did she not have the heart to repent, but she even forced Jichuan to chase Qingzhi away!
“Jichuan didn’t agree and reprimanded Xi Xi a few more times. Xi Xi left the Kang family in a fit of anger and cut ties with us. After my mother and I returned home, Jichuan was afraid that we would be sad, so he hid this matter.”
Kang Ru’s tone was sorrowful. “That’s what happened. I really didn’t expect my daughter to be such a naughty and mischievous child. It’s fine that she disrespected her tutor, but she even hurt Qingzhi. Now, she’s even spouting nonsense about Jichuan and Qingzhi imprisoning her!”
Old Madam Kang hid the resentment in her eyes and cried, “If she hadn’t almost killed Qingzhi back then, how could Jichuan not acknowledge her? It’s all because she’s naughty and willful. She did such a vicious thing. Now, she’s pushing all the blame on us!”
Then, the Kang family invited witnesses from back then. “Back then, Young Master Kang invited me to teach Miss Qiao. She made things difficult for me and even bullied Miss Kang”
“I was Qiao Xi’s classmate at that time. Her brother was really good to her. He was afraid that Qiao Xi would not like the food at the university, so he would come to deliver food every afternoon. No matter what the weather was like, Young Master Kang would pick her up from school at the door.”
“Miss Kang’s health wasn’t good, but no matter what overbearing requests Qiao Xi made, she would agree. She even fell sick a few times because of this, but she never had any complaints. Miss Kang tolerated her, yet she actually had the cheek to say that she was imprisoned by Miss Kang!”
In everyone’s testimony, Kang Jichuan was a good brother who doted on his younger sister. Kang Qingzhi was also a pitiful little girl who tolerated everything Qiao Xi did. On the other hand, Qiao Xi was a willful, naughty, vicious, and arrogant eldest daughter. Even though Kang Jichuan and Kang Qingzhi were good to her, she was still not satisfied and even wanted to chase Kang Qingzhi away.
Old Madam Kang cried bitterly. “Qiao Xi is my biological granddaughter. Of course, I want her to come home, but she almost caused Qingzhi’s death five years ago. How would I dare to let her come back?”
