1643 Those Who Do Great Things Have To Be flexible
“Trouble comes from the mouth. Don’t say such things again. We invited Ah Zheng over to apologize,” He Weinian berated in a low voice.
He Weinian knew very well that the reason he was like a fish in water in Li City was that he was Gu Zheng’s master. Otherwise, who would show him any respect when he held a charity banquet?
Everyone felt that it was not a good thing for the He family if their relationship with Gu Zheng broke down, so he specially held this banquet.
He Weinian lowered his voice and said, “Those who achieve great things have to be flexible. Being humiliated now means nothing. Everything will be ours sooner or later.”
On the other hand, Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng slowly walked into the banquet hall. Qiao Xi chuckled and said, “Ah Zheng, what do you think He Weinian has been scheming for his entire life?”
Gu Zheng said casually, “It’s probably to live forever!”
Immortality? This must be the reason why He Weinian built the research lab!
Qiao Xi raised her eyes and glanced around. Cheng Juan was standing in the crowd, his gaze cold and empty. A bloodthirsty smile spread on the corners of his mouth.
Gu Zheng was the richest man in Li City. Wherever he and Qiao Xi went, they would be flattered and ingratiated. Madam He’s eyes were bloodshot. Her son was still locked up in the police station, and the butler who was loyal to the He family had also been locked up. However, Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi could still appear in the He family’s residence!
He Wenxian’s eyes were filled with viciousness as she gritted her teeth. Gu Zheng was the love of her life, but he was snatched away by that b*tch, Qiao Xi.
What right did Qiao Xi have to easily obtain Gu Zheng’s love? Even when he entered the police station, he did not forget to protect Qiao Xi so that they would not be able to find her. Now, her father even asked her to humble herself in front of Qiao Xi. He said that when Qiao Xi completely fell into his hands, she could torture her however she wanted, but she did not want to wait anymore!
She wanted to kill Qiao Xi!
He Wenxian rolled her eyes and suddenly thought of an idea. “Is the Lu family here?”
“Lu Zhi and his sister are here,” the man beside her replied.
The corners of He Wenxian’s mouth curled up. She was just worrying about how to deal with Qiao Xi when someone delivered themselves to her door.
Half an hour later, Qiao Xi was walking in the backyard. Gu Zheng and Ye Qingyuan were chatting not far away. The He family’s servant walked forward. “Mrs. Gu, Eldest Miss Lu invites you over. She asked me to pass this to you.”
Qiao Xi lowered her head and saw that it was Lu Zhi’s jade pendant. The only person who could get Lu Zhi’s things and call her Eldest Miss Lu was Lu Jinshu, but her relationship with Lu Jinshu was not good.
Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment before turning to Gu Zheng. “Lu Zhi is looking for me. I’ll go over.”
Gu Zheng looked up and glanced at the servant before nodding.
Qiao Xi followed the servant to the small pavilion in the backyard. Lu Jinshu was indeed standing there.
“You’re so shameless! The He family doesn’t welcome you, yet you still have the cheek to attend the banquet!”
Qiao Xi: “???” Was this person crazy?
Lu Jinshu was furious. “Stop pretending to be innocent! You stole Miss He’s childhood sweetheart and seduced Young Master He. Why are you so cheap?!”
Qiao Xi instantly understood that Lu Jinshu had probably been used as a tool. However, she could use this to counter-attack.
She chuckled and said, “Miss Lu, do you dare to talk in a crowded place? I’m afraid you’ll hurt me in the middle of nowhere! I’m so weak, so I’m definitely not your match!”
Lu Jinshu instantly exploded. “Alright! Let’s go somewhere crowded and let everyone see your lewd appearance!”
The two of them arrived at the front hall. There were many female guests gathered here. Seeing the two of them ready to fight, everyone came over.
“Qiao Xi!” Lu Jinshu called out to her and roared angrily. “If you’re sensible, get out of the He family immediately. Don’t embarrass yourself here!”
Everyone was dumbfounded. Eldest Miss Lu actually chased Mrs. Gu away in public?
Everyone knew that He Weinian was holding this banquet to apologize to Gu Zheng. If Mrs. Gu was chased out, would Gu Zheng let the matter go?
Everyone looked embarrassed and pretended not to see anything. They did not say anything.
There was only Lu Jinshu’s angry roar in the huge banquet hall. After a long silence, Qiao Xi said slowly, “Eldest Miss Lu, explain clearly. How am I embarrassing myself?”
Seeing this, Lu Jinshu shouted in exasperation, “You clearly know that Miss He and Gu Zheng are childhood sweethearts, yet you still seduced Gu Zheng and got him to marry you!”
Everyone gasped. Eldest Miss Lu’s words were too serious!
