Chapter 1404 - 1404 How Dirty!
1404 How Dirty!
He Wenxian’s expression became even prouder. She was now a genius in the cultural relics world, but what did Qiao Xi know? She was just a jewelry designer!
Being a cultural relic restorer was something to be proud of. She could restore the calligraphy and paintings left behind by many ancient people. Everything she did was for the sake of promoting the country’s culture. Not only would she be respected by everyone, but the country would also be proud of her. Such honor was something Qiao Xi could never hope to achieve in her life.
He Wenxian straightened her back arrogantly and smiled confidently.
She had long hired a professional cultural relic restorer. If she was asked to complete the restoration on the spot, she could say that she did not like cameras and crowds and that she needed to work alone. Then, her father would arrange for a cultural relic restorer to help her complete her work. At that time, she could just appear in front of everyone with the work.
She wanted Qiao Xi to see who was qualified to stand by Gu Zheng’s side!
Yes, this honor was stolen, but stealing it without being discovered was also an ability. Who asked the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor to be unlucky enough to bump into her?
Qiao Xi supported her chin and sized up He Wenxian, who was not far away. She saw pride, greed, and killing intent in her eyes.
Even though Qiao Xi had a cold character, she could not help but feel angry at this moment.
What if she was just a powerless young woman? She would be killed just because she was outstanding. The He family had nurtured professional assassins who would not fail at all. Before she could even ask for help, she would be beheaded.
Just like that, a genius girl would disappear from this world before she could even stand out. No one would even know her name.
He Wenxian occupied her identity and stole the glory that should belong to her. She even wanted to step on her corpse to climb up the social ladder. What a dirty act!
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and curled her lips into a gloomy smile.
At this moment, He Wenxian was like a sparkling star. She was welcomed and respected no matter where she went. She was busy talking to her seniors and naturally did not have the time to observe Qiao Xi. At this moment, He Wenyin took the opportunity to slip over.
Qiao Xi sat there quietly and gently swirled the contents of her wine glass. She was stunningly beautiful, but she gave off a distant feeling.
When He Wenyin saw this beautiful scene, she could not help but sigh in her heart. No wonder a cold man like Gu Zheng would get married in a flash. After meeting such a beautiful woman, he would definitely get married as soon as possible to avoid her being snatched away.
She looked around and quietly leaned over. “Qiao Xi.”
Qiao Xi had long noticed the gaze behind her and elegantly turned around. “Second Miss He! Why are you here with me? Shouldn’t you be giving interviews like He Tingchen?”
He Wenyin smiled meaningfully. “Didn’t you see how many people from the He family were there just now?”
Qiao Xi thought for a moment. There were four people in the He family except for He Wenyin.
He Wenyin sneered. “They wouldn’t have brought me here to be interviewed. I sneaked in.”
“But…” He Wenyin thought about how Qiao Xi already knew that she had a grudge against the He family. Moreover, she had even reminded Qiao Xi to be careful of the He family, so He Wenyin did not have to hide anything in front of Qiao Xi.
“Qiao Xi, do you really believe that my sister is the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor?”
“Even if I don’t believe it, so what?” Qiao Xi took a bite of the chocolate cake. The rich taste bloomed on the tip of her tongue, and her eyes lit up.
He Wenyin stared at her for a while. “So you know?”
Actually, when Qiao Xi spoke just now, everyone had a tacit understanding. However, He Wenyin was an uncontrollable factor. Qiao Xi did not want to expose too much in front of her.
“You’re the second daughter of the He family. You should know better than me whether she’s the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor or not.”
He Wenyin snorted. “I absolutely don’t believe that she’s the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor, but the servants of the He family will definitely believe her.”
“Oh?” Qiao Xi looked at her with interest.
He Wenyin said with a mocking expression, “My sister has been learning the four arts since she was young. Although she might not be proficient, her skills are acknowledged on the surface. As for the restoration of cultural relics, it started five years ago. She bought many related books and often pretends to repair ancient books at home. If I were a servant at home and saw Eldest Miss buying these books and repairing ancient books in the study from time to time, I would naturally think that she’s an expert in this area.
“Now that she’s attending the event as the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor, the servants of the He family will naturally recall her restoring ancient books at home. Of course, they’ll believe her without a doubt.”
