Chapter 78 - You Snatched My Wife
Chapter 78: You Snatched My Wife
The car was silent for a long time. Qiao Xi secretly raised her head to look, and when she noticed that Gu Zheng’s expression had not changed, she could not help but let out a sigh of relief. It looked like this was the end of the matter. Gu Zheng must not be interested in her dead fiance.
Qiao Xi looked out of the window and said with a smile, “Gu Zheng, can you stop the car here? I’m going…”
Before she could finish, the car drove past the place.
Qiao Xi: “…”
At this moment, Gu Zheng said slowly, “Just pretend that I’m old and can’t hear you. Or you can just pretend that I’m dead.”
Qiao Xi: “…”
Why was he saying the things she said about her fiance to her? Did he think that what she said was fake? How was that possible? She said it so sincerely!
…
The news that the Meng family had gotten their hands on Master Gu Shan’s gown, ‘Time Flows’, spread throughout high society overnight.
All the families who were on good terms with the Meng family or were involved in the fashion industry had received the Meng family’s invitation. The Qiao family was no exception. Qiao Xi and Third Brother had agreed on a meeting location. That was when she found out that he actually had business in Qiao Corporation.
Qiao Xi was surprised. “When did you get involved with Qiao Corporation?”
Third Brother said lazily, “Let’s go to Qiao Corporation to vent your anger.”
Qiao Xi chuckled and left with Third Brother. She did not know what was wrong with that fellow Gu Zheng recently. He looked at her with disdain and even spoke in a strange tone. She did not want to be around Gu Zheng. Since Third Brother was here, she would hang out with him.
After knowing that Qiao Xi had run off with her third brother, Gu Zheng sneered and tossed the contract in his hand aside. He closed his eyes to calm down for a while before saying, “Song Shiyu.”
“President Gu, what can I do for you?”
“Contact Senior Shang and ask if the third brother has been too free recently.”
Snatching someone right in front of his eyes? So what if he was Qiao Xi’s third brother? Qiao Xi was already married, so her husband was the most important person now!
Song Shiyu’s expression was indescribable.
‘President Gu, even if Madam is the sixth daughter, you can’t take her for granted! Isn’t this adding oil to the fire?! Madam doesn’t have a good impression of you to begin with. If you don’t improve your image and court death by provoking her third brother, your future brother-in-law…’
Song Shiyu thought that President Gu was going to ruin himself. He might even lose his wife.
“Also…” Gu Zheng suddenly thought of something and slowly instructed, “That dress from the Meng family is fake. You know what to do, right? ”
Song Shiyu was shocked. The Meng family’s dress was fake? How dare they display a fake dress? Did they not want their lives anymore?
Of course, President Gu was even more impressive. He actually wanted to announce this matter to the public. He was not showing the Meng family any respect at all. The Gu family and the Meng family had quite a number of collaborations, so it would not do them much good if the Meng family collapsed at this time. Thinking about benefits, Song Shiyu wanted to persuade Gu Zheng to be careful.
However, Gu Zheng’s next sentence was, “The Meng family was careless and offended her. They deserve to die.”
Song Shiyu shut up immediately.
It turned out that President Gu was angry because of the madam. Then, there was no problem.
…
Below the building of Qiao Corporation, Third Brother went to park the car while Qiao Xi waited downstairs. After a while, Third Brother rushed over angrily. “I don’t know what’s wrong with Master this time. He suddenly called to scold me and said that I stole that big shot’s wife. Pfft!”
Why would a single man like him snatch his wife?!
Qiao Xi was stunned as well. “Huh?”
“I stole his wife? Do I have a living female creature by my side? How could I have snatched his wife? Little Six, do you think that big shot is crazy? Does he hate me, so he deliberately complained to our master?”
Qiao Xi wanted to nod, but she could not.
She thought that she fulfilled the conditions Third Brother just listed out… She was a living female, after all… However, how could she be the wife of a big shot?!
Qiao Xi and Third Brother shared a common enemy. “That’s right, it’s definitely that big shot who’s jealous of you. He’s jealous that you’re young and handsome!”
Third Brother thought that Qiao Xi’s analysis made sense. “Alright, wait for me. I’ll go upstairs to get something before sending you to the Meng family’s banquet.”
Just then, a familiar voice sounded behind him. “President Qin?”
Qin An turned around and happened to meet Qiao Zhenguo’s smiling face. “President Qin, why are you here at Qiao Corporation? Have you considered working together with Qiao Corporation?”
Qin An nodded coldly. “That’s right. I think Qiao Corporation is pretty good.”
