[✓](1)Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

99-100

Gu Zheng said in a hoarse voice, “Mrs. Gu, you want to kiss me…”

Qiao Xi was in an excited state and did not hear Gu Zheng’s words at all. She just wanted to quickly kiss him. If she kissed him, she would be able to eat a delicious Michelin feast!

However, just as she was about to touch Gu Zheng’s lips, he suddenly moved back.

Qiao Xi: “??”

Gu Zheng turned his head and did not look at her. “I suddenly don’t think that’s a good idea. It’s better if you don’t kiss me. Or if you really want to kiss me, why don’t you do it after we return to the room?”

Qiao Xi: “…”

She swore that this scumbag was doing this on purpose! He was playing with her! When she thought of how she had taken his jacket and lit a cigarette, Qiao Xi pouted gloomily. “You’re playing with me.”

It was rare to see her childish side. Gu Zheng was a little surprised. He tapped his fingers on his knee. “You want to kiss me? Actually, it’s not impossible.”

Qiao Xi glanced at him with the intention of seeing what other strange ideas this man could come up with to torture her.

Gu Zheng bent down slightly and said in her ear, “Come with me to visit the Gu family in a few days. The Gu family has been wanting me to get married and have a loving wife. Do you understand what I mean?”

Qiao Xi understood what he meant. Gu Zheng wanted to bring her to the Gu family and pretend to be intimate with her in front of everyone in the Gu family.

Chapter 100: Attacking The Qiao Family

Qiao Xi had long heard that the Gu family was not a harmonious family. Gu Zheng, an ‘illegitimate child’, was the head of the Gu family. How many people were unwilling to accept it and were secretly trying to trip him up?

They were rushing Gu Zheng to get married, probably because they wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Gu Zheng. Unexpectedly, they were ruined by this outsider who suddenly appeared.

From this, it could be seen how many people would make things difficult for her if she went back to the Gu family with him. Furthermore, she had to act lovey-dovey with him…

Qiao Xi’s eyes flickered incessantly. She was considering the gains and losses of agreeing to this. If she gave up on a delicious meal, she would be able to live in peace for a long time. However… she had to face these things sooner or later. She would just be facing them earlier if she agreed. Moreover, she would even be able to enjoy a delicious feast. It was not a loss no matter how she thought about it!

After thinking things through, Qiao Xi grinned. “You’re being too formal. I’m your wife. Of course, I should go back to the Gu family with you to see your parents!”

Gu Zheng sneered.

Qiao Xi quickly planted a kiss on his lips when he was not paying attention, then ran to the butler to get him to quickly prepare the food that she brought back!

After a while, all the delicacies that Jiang Han made were placed on the dining table. Qiao Xi could not wait to pick up the knife and fork. It could only be said that Jiang Han was worthy of being a top chef in the world. His culinary skills were superb!

She ate happily, but Gu Zheng rolled his eyes. She looked really stupid like this. While Qiao Xi was enjoying the delicious food, he instructed the butler, “Pay more attention to the Meng family’s movements.”

If the Meng family was willing to come over and apologize, he could let bygones be bygones. However, if they were unwilling to apologize, then they could not blame him for being merciless.

…

In the Meng family.

Meng Wan was forcefully brought home by the bodyguards. Before Madam Meng could coax her, Old Master Meng came back. He slapped her as well. “Why are you crying? Hurry up and go to the Gu family to apologize to Qiao Xi!”

After Meng Wan reacted, she broke down and cried out loud. “You hit me! Grandpa, you hit me because of that b*tch Qiao Xi? I won’t apologize! Why should I?!”

“This matter is not up to you to decide. If you still want to be the eldest daughter of the Meng family, go to the Gu family and apologize to Qiao Xi.” Old Master Meng ordered coldly. “You must go to the Gu family to apologize by tomorrow at the latest! The Meng family can’t be destroyed because of you.”

With that, he ignored the sobbing Meng Wan and turned to leave.

Tears streamed down Madam Meng’s face as she complained to Meng Xingzhou, “Husband, what’s going on? Hasn’t this matter already passed? Why are you forcing Wan Wan to apologize to Qiao Xi?”

Meng Xingzhou did not understand Old Master Meng’s behavior either. He frowned. “Just do as Old Master Meng says and apologize.”

After all, Old Master Meng was in charge of the Meng family now. He did not dare to openly defy his orders.

When Meng Wan heard that she had to apologize, she instantly cried and caused a scene. “I don’t want to apologize to Qiao Xi! Qiao Xi is a b*tch. She’ll be abandoned by Brother Gu Zheng sooner or later. I don’t want to apologize to a b*tch. How can I face the world if news of this gets out?”

Madam Meng also echoed, “That’s right. Our Wan Wan has a noble identity, so why should she apologize to a country bumpkin? Once she apologizes, how will our Meng family live in Li City? Outsiders will definitely point fingers at us. Xingzhou, can you think of a way?”

Meng Xingzhou narrowed his eyes in thought. “I have some ties with Qiao Zhenguo. The Qiao family has a project that they need our help with recently. Why don’t I talk to Qiao Zhenguo and let him discipline his daughter?”

“Right! This is a good idea. If Qiao Xi dares to offend us, we’ll make the Qiao family’s project suffer a loss. I heard that Qiao Zhenguo doesn’t like his eldest daughter to begin with. If he loses a big project because of Qiao Xi, he’ll probably be very angry.” Madam Meng slapped her thigh and thought that Meng Xingzhou’s suggestion was very good.

So what if Qiao Xi was married to Gu Zheng? She would always be Qiao Zhenguo’s daughter, and in this world, it was only right for a father to teach his daughter a lesson.

Meng Wan added, “We have to make our stand clear. It’s because of Qiao Xi that we don’t want to work with the Qiao family. We also have to spread the news that companies who are on good terms with our Meng family are not allowed to work with the Qiao family! This way, Qiao Zhenguo will hate Qiao Xi to the bone!”

…

The next morning, Qiao Xi suddenly received a call from Qiao Zhenguo. “Qiao Xi, come to the company right now! What did you do to make the project that the Meng family had previously discussed with us suddenly fail? Many of our partners also said that they won’t be working with us anymore! Do you know how much our Qiao family has lost? Get the hell over here right now and apologize to Miss Meng!]

Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed. “If something happens to your Qiao family, what does that have anything to do with me?”

Qiao Zhenguo did not expect that she would actually dare to speak to him like this, but for the sake of getting Qiao Xi to come over quickly, he said coldly, “Fine, it’s fine if you don’t want to acknowledge me as your father, but what about your uncle? If you don’t come to the company in half an hour, I’ll chase your uncle out of the house!”
