Qiao Zhenguo had called her because he wanted her to get Third Brother to let them off.
In this world, no one wished for the Qiao family to perish more than Qiao Xi. How could she plead on their behalf?
She picked up the phone. Qiao Zhenguo took two deep breaths before he calmed down. His suppressed voice came slowly. "Xi Xi..."
Qiao Xi's brows raised.
Qiao Zhenguo pretended to be weak. "I'm sick. Can you come back and see me? I miss you."
Hah! Qiao Zhenguo was sick? He wanted to see her? How could she possibly believe him?
In order to deceive her, he even came up with such a lie. Was he not afraid of losing his life?
However, Qiao Xi was still very calm. Since he wanted her to go back, then she would go back and play with the Qiao family. She would see what they could do.
Qiao Xi chuckled. "Alright, I'll go see you right away."
She was just feeling bored when the Qiao family came knocking on her door. She could go and have some fun!
...
In the Qiao family's house.
Qiao Zhenguo looked anxious. "She agreed to come back, but I don't think she's easy to deal with. What will we do about President Qin, then?"
Two days ago, Qin An gave the Qiao family a final call. He told them that if they could not obtain Qiao Xi's forgiveness, the Qiao family would completely disappear from Li City.
What had Qiao Xi done to make the person in charge of the Qin family and the eldest daughter of the Qin family pressure the Qiao family?!
Now that the Qiao family was forced into a dead-end, they could only beg Qiao Xi for forgiveness.
Previously, the old madam of the Qiao family had been unwilling to apologize to this wild girl. Qiao Zhenguo also could not bear to let Xu Mei and Qiao Rou lower their heads, so this matter was dragged on until today.
Later on, Old Madam Qiao came up with a plan, so he called to invite Qiao Xi over.
Qiao Zhenguo asked somewhat uneasily, "Will this method work?"
Old Madam Qiao had a look of disdain. "What's wrong with it?! The Qiao family is all her relatives. We're asking for forgiveness in front of those students. If we say a few good words, what more could she ask for?"
"Zhenguo, tell Rou Rou and Xu Mei not to care about their reputation anymore. Just lower their heads. I'll plead with her too. Coupled with the students' advice, she'll definitely forgive us."
If Qiao Xi was unwilling to forgive them even after they did this, it would not be good for her reputation if news of this got out. Others would say that she was heartless.
Qiao Zhenguo was still uneasy. "What if Qiao Xi agrees now and regrets it later?"
"Record a video as evidence. If she dares to back out, we'll upload it online. We'll let everyone see how she treats her family. She'll be left with no reputation!"
Qiao Zhenguo's heart finally calmed down a little. He had asked Qiao Rou to call the students in the university to come over as guests. With so many people present, how could Qiao Xi not forgive them?
...
Qiao Xi slowly went downstairs after changing.
Pfft! Liang Pingchuan looked up and spat out a mouthful of tea.
She was wearing a simple and elegant dress, making her look frail and weak. She had only applied light makeup on her face, and her lips were pale. Her eyes were slightly red, while her long hair hung loosely on her shoulders. her appearance made one want to protect her.
What was going on?
Gu Zheng's expression was magical as he stared at her.
Qiao Xi smiled.
'That's right! With this expression, they'll naturally be shocked. They'll think I'm weak and pitiful!
'Look at my red face and slightly red eyes. With some eye drops, others will definitely think that I've suffered a great grievance!'
Liang Pingchuan wiped the tea from his mouth and asked in horror, "Little Six, did someone hit you in the eyes?"
Gu Zheng: "..."
Qiao Xi raised her brows.
'This is exactly the effect I wanted! With my superb makeup skills, nobody will be able to detect any flaws. It's comparable to special effects makeup!'
Gu Zheng said calmly, "She just put on makeup."
Qiao Xi: "..."
'Why is this bastard Gu Zheng exposing me? Even a straight man can't tell that I'm wearing makeup. How did he figure it out']
Gu Zheng smiled. Even if he could not hear Mrs. Gu's thoughts, he would know that she was pretending.
This was because Mrs. Gu was best at pretending to be weak. She had chosen to deal with the Qiao family by taking the way of a b*tch.
Qiao Xi muttered in her heart—
'Oh my God! I remember now! Gu Zheng is no ordinary man! Could it be that he's gay?'
