Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 154
Chapter 154 Good Eloquence
“That’s why Young Master Gu treated me so well because of Third Sister. He only sent those things here to express his apology. Of course, it was also to gain a favorable impression in front of me, so that he could help Third Sister speak up for him?”
“That’s not the case.” Qiao Ningdai said firmly.
“If that’s the case, then why didn’t Fifth Sister send it over?” Ignoring Qiao Ningdai’s stiff smile, Qiao Yunxi said to himself, “Since he wants to please us and indirectly please Third Sister, he won’t just send me off, not Fifth Sister. Fifth Sister also said earlier that Childe Gu is very good at dealing with people. Naturally, he will not make such a mistake.”
Qiao Ningdai smiled embarrassedly. “Qiao Qiao is right, but men and women are not kissing each other. Young Master Gu’s heart belongs to Third Sister, but he didn’t tell me what it was like for him to send things to me. I don’t know, but I thought Young Master Gu was the kind of person who chatted with Qiao Qiao. As for what he sent to her, outsiders, they only thought that it was an apology for violating the boat, so they didn’t think too much.”
In order to convince her, Qiao Xi had to admire Qiao Ningdai’s eloquence because she could think of such a lousy reason and said it so naturally.
Qiao Jinwen took the initiative to end the topic. “Alright, let’s not talk about those things. Qiao Qiao is still young. Don’t talk about these messy things. This girl doesn’t understand such complicated things.”
Looking at Qiao Xi, Qiao Jinwen comforted, “Qiao Qiao, don’t think too much. Your fifth sister’s words are complicated, but it’s actually the simplest thing. Since Young Master Gu’s thoughts towards third sister are not clear, let’s pretend that we don’t know. The reason why I have said so much to you is to let you know in your heart. Don’t be short-handed,” she said as she scratched Qiao Xi’s nose. “Regardless of what Young Master Gu thinks of me, not crossing the bright path in front of the elders is unreasonable. You must avoid suspicions.”
“How about this,” Qiao Xi lowered her head thoughtfully. “Then Young Master Gu asked me to go on a trip tomorrow, so I can’t go anymore?”
What!
Qiao Jinwen suddenly tightened her grip on Qiao Yunxi’s hand.
Qiao Xi didn’t seem to notice the pain coming from her wrist. She looked nervously at Qiao Jinwen, “Third sister, what should we do? I have already sent someone to reply and agree to Young Master Gu. I don’t know if he wants to use me to indirectly approach you. Am I, am I a bad thing?”
“How could it be?” Qiao Jinwen tried her best to maintain the smile on her face, “It’s just an ordinary game, don’t think too much.”
‘”Then I’m relieved. However, Young Master Gu is too troublesome. If you want to ask Third Sister to set foot on the mountain, just pass you a post. Why did you call me out and tell me not to call me Third Sister? Then how can he get close to you? Perhaps, Young Master Gu wants me to go out to inquire about Third Sister? Do you want me to tell you all about Third Sister?” Qiao Xi asked for Qiao Jinwen’s opinion.
The hatred in Qiao Jinwen’s eyes could no longer be concealed.
Is this bastard really stupid or pretending to be stupid?
Only then did she say that Gu Sheng was interested in her and was giving something to Qiao Yunxi. She only wanted to start with Qiao Yunxi and approach her indirectly. This damn girl said that Gu Sheng had invited her to go on a trip.
This isn’t hitting her in the face. What is it?
She was the only one who never wanted to give up on her!
Thinking of the letters that sank to the capital, Qiao Jinwen’s jealousy and suspicion overflowed like a flood, breaking through the last bit of superiority in her heart.
Perhaps Gu Sheng treated her differently than she thought?
But what about the red coral head?
If he wasn’t interested in her, why would he give her such a valuable item?
Those precious medicinal ingredients, all sorts of novel things, it was obvious at a glance that they had used their hearts. Afterwards, the carriage specially delivered from the capital, the most popular silk flowers, and various supplements, even had two 300-year-old ginseng stalks.
Although Qiao Yunxi had sent one of the items, didn’t Qiao Yunxi say it himself? They were all defective items that were about to expire. He had sent one to the middle courtyard, but in the end, it caused his grandmother’s dislike.
Qiao Jinwen, who was jealous, would never admit that Qiao Yunxi was stronger than her. Although she did not understand Gu Sheng’s intentions, she, who felt good about herself, was sure that Gu Sheng had other intentions.
‘”Since Qiao Yunxi sincerely invited me, there’s no reason for you to go back on your word. However, if Childe Gu asks about me …” After pondering for a few seconds, he said, “You don’t know anything.”
Qiao Yunxi nodded. “Don’t worry, Third Sister. I understand that it’s related to Third Sister’s reputation. I won’t talk nonsense. Anyway, no matter what he asks me tomorrow, I don’t know. I will definitely protect Third Sister.”
After saying that, he nodded cautiously.
Without the mood to continue, Qiao Jinwen brought Qiao Ningdai out of the east courtyard angrily.
“Third sister.” Qiao Ningdai shyly called out to Qiao Jinwen.
“Damn girl, you’ve learned how to be smart. You’re going to run against me.” Qiao Jinwen casually pulled off the branch beside her and fiercely fiddled with her two hands. The tiny branch instantly broke into several pieces. “I didn’t even look at my appearance. I actually dared to think of Young Master Gu.”
‘”That’s right. Young Master Gu is someone she can climb high up? Third sister, you said that Qiao Xi suddenly has such a good relationship with Young Master Zhong. Is she going after Young Master Gu? Young Master Gu is Young Master Zhong’s cousin.”
“No matter who she goes for, she can’t get what she wants.” Her scarlet fingernails were refracted by the afternoon sunlight, and were as bright as a drop of water.
Qiao Ningdai secretly glanced at Qiao Jinwen and said, “She’s really powerful. Third Sister, do you mean by uncle?”
She smiled sinisterly and said, “No matter who it is, this damn girl can’t do what she wants. However, we are indeed passive during this period of time. She first competed for the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and her relationship with the Zhong Family and Jin Family is indecently good. It seems like she has suddenly gained enlightenment.”
“It’s just another person!” Qiao Ningdai guided Qiao Jinwen’s anger.
There was no other way. If Qiao Jinwen didn’t vent her anger, she would vent it on her in the end. Since that was the case, it was better to take advantage of this to lure Qiao Jinwen’s anger onto Qiao Xi. Originally, Qiao Xi had also angered Qiao Jinwen.
As a bystander, Qiao Ningdai could see it clearly.
If Gu Sheng had nothing to do with Qiao Jinwen, then what was the meaning of sending good things over and over again?
If Gu Sheng was interested in Qiao Jinwen, he felt that there was something missing when he met Qiao Jinwen on the boat.
Moreover, Gu Sheng was currently in Jincheng, so why didn’t he ask Qiao Jinwen to take a trip? Why did he ask Qiao Xi?
Qiao Ningdai shook her head and continued, “Third sister, that damn girl is so powerful now. Should we do something? She has the vice chapter of the Qiao family in her hands. I wonder what big uncle thinks. How could she give such an important thing to an idiot?”
“We don’t need to do anything,” Qiao Jinwen suddenly became complacent. “Vice Zhang? Qiao Yunxi can’t hold it steadily.”
Sure enough!
Qiao Jinwen glanced sideways and naturally saw all the schemes on Qiao Ningdai’s face. She sneered in her heart.
Is uncomfortable.
Don’t think that she doesn’t know what Qiao Ningdai is thinking.
The hearts of the people in the second room were very big.
He actually bought an industry in the capital!
If her father hadn’t warned her not to reveal the news, she would have already exposed the bottom of Second Fang.
Her father had his plans, so she had no choice but to endure them for the time being.
She endured Qiao Ningdai, endured Qiao Xi, and if she endured any longer, she would suffocate.
Take a deep breath.
Thinking of what her mother said to her and the handsome face of the Third Prince, Qiao Jinwen’s heart calmed down a little.
Thinking of the letter from there, Qiao Jinwen wondered who she would go to and get the item. After all, it was proof of Qiao Xingbang’s true identity!
The next day.
Qiao Xi reluctantly asked Astragalus to prepare something. Yesterday, she was quick to say that she wanted to step foot with Gu Jinzhen. Today, no matter what, she had to go out and shake her head.
Before Huang Qi could pack his things, the housekeeper’s wife came to say that Gu Jinzhen had arrived.
Qiao Yunxi was shocked, and his spring sleepiness was gone.
She had clearly rejected Gu Jinzhen, but today, she only planned to walk around the manor. This fellow came here uninvited. What do you mean?
Since Keren had come, how could she not invite him in?
Gu Jinzhen greeted Old Madame Qiao first. When his front foot arrived at the Eastern Campus, Qiao Jinwen and Qiao Ningdai’s back foot had also arrived.
Qiao Yunxi raised his eyebrows narrowly.
The news of these two people was really fast.
“Qiao Qiao, are you going out?” Qiao Ningdai exaggeratedly said, “Third sister and I came at a bad time. We thought that the weather would be good today, so we went out to relax together.”
“Didn’t Fifth Sister know that I was going out today?” Qiao Yunxi asked innocently.
Qiao Ningdai’s expression stiffened as she smiled embarrassedly, “That’s why we wanted to go out together. I didn’t expect Qiao Qiao to meet Childe Gu.”
Yoho!
Battle level has risen?
Qiao Ningdai had already said this, so how could she continue?
Rolling her eyes, Qiao Xi’s evil taste came.
“Isn’t Grandmother and Fourth Uncle still running around for uncle’s affairs? If we both go out, wouldn’t that be bad?”
She didn’t expect that Qiao Yunxi would say this. Qiao Ningdai was stunned for a moment and immediately said, “We’ve checked everything that needs to be checked. There’s no progress at all. That’s why Third Sister and I wanted to go out for a walk. If we change our way of thinking, we might have a clue.”
Amazing, my sister!
Qiao Yunxi’s heart was filled with the word “serve”.
Gu Jinzhen’s originally restless mood sank slightly when he saw the two uninvited guests. After hearing Qiao Ningdai’s shameless words and Qiao Yunxi’s seemingly moved expression, he became even more gloomy.
He didn’t settle the score with these two people, so he sent them to his door?
The reason why he trusted Qiao Jinwen so much in his previous life was largely because of Qiao Ningdai.
What was he really talking about?
“Well, then let’s go together.” Qiao Xi said as she turned to look at Gu Jinzhen.
His previously dark eyes immediately smiled.
Tang Yuan curled his lips in disdain.
Yesterday, Yours Truly received news that Miss Qiao refused to go on a trip, so he asked them to prepare the things they needed today. He woke up early in the morning and punched as usual. After that, he took a bath, cleaned himself, and then …
The corner of Tang Yuan’s mouth twitched.
Master had people open all the clothes they had brought, carefully choose them on the bed, try them again and again, and after dawdling for more than half an hour, he came to Qiao Mansion with a refreshing air.
