“No, but it’s true that the painting was different from when I last left it. I don’t know why either.” Of course, Xu Jiaojiao knew why. Soone had tampered with the painting, and that person was none other than Bai ngyao.
That was why she had left out a few strokes in order to set a trap for Bai ngyao.
Of course, she could not tell the chairman all that. There was no evidence to prove that she had set a trap for Bai ngyao, so the chairman could only assu that soone else had tampered with her painting.
The thing was, she had dread about this before… but she could not say that. No one would believe her if she told them about her dream. They would just arrest her as a lunatic.
“Sigh! Bai ngyao studied abroad before and won many awards. We invited her over for so publicity, but we didn’t expect this to happen. I’ve seen her works. They’re superficial with no real substance.” Now, the chairman really regretted inviting Bai ngyao back. Not only did she not bring any benefits, she even affected the overall event negatively.
“It’s alright.” Xu Jiaojiao smiled.
“Oh right, now that you’re the champion, you have the opportunity to study abroad. In terms of art education, the conditions overseas are better than in China. You fave to go!” Since Xu Jiaojiao was so talented, the chairman wanted her to beco the best artist she could be.
Xu Jiaojiao’s expression changed slightly. “I’ll think about it carefully.”
“Well, you’re a diamond in the rough. Don’t miss such a good opportunity,” said the chairman, patting her shoulder.
“Okay, I got it,” Xu Jiaojiao agreed with a smile.
“I still have sothing on, so I have to go now. Keep up the good work.” The chairman encouraged her before leaving.
After all, there was a huge age gap between them. Other than work, they had nothing in common.
Lu Zhuo looked up at Bai ngyao, who was already drenched. The pity he had for her in the past was no longer there. All he felt now was bone-chilling coldness.
“Ha! So I’m only worth two million to you?”
Lu Zhuo could not help but regret everything. Back then, he had run away from the marriage for her, but he was only worth two million yuan to her.
“Lu Zhuo, it’s not what you think!” Bai ngyao wanted to explain.
What else could it be?
“I ran away from the altar to look for you overseas, and you treat like a fool?”
“No.” Bai ngyao wanted to cry but had no tears.
“Jiaojiao is right. You are despicable.” Lu Zhuo looked at the pale-faced Bai ngyao and said word by word.
Bai ngyao’s eyes were filled with tears. “Lu Zhuo, it’s not what you think. Let explain…”
“There’s nothing to explain.” Lu Zhuo’s eyes were extrely cold, and so was his tone.
“Don’t go.” When Lu Zhuo turned around, Bai ngyao reached out to pull him back. However, Lu Zhuo threw her aside and Bai ngyao fell back into the pool.
“You brought this upon yourself,” Lu Zhuo said and turned to leave without looking at Bai ngyao again.
After the celebratory feast ended, Su Luo took a taxi back alone. Xu Jiaojiao hugged Qi Yunduo. “Co back to Qingshui Villa with !”
“A-Are you sure about that?” Qi Yunduo looked troubled.
“It’s alright, your big brother agreed to let you visit.” Xu Jiaojiao chuckled.
“Really? I can go to Qingshui Villa now?” Qi Yun Yun could not believe it. She did not know how Xu Jiaojiao did it.
“Sure, I’ve already spoken to your brother. He said that you can co,” Xu Jiaojiao said as she hugged Qi Yunduo even tighter.
Five minutes later, the three of them got into the car. Qi Yunduo sat in the front seat while Xu Jiaojiao and Qi Shenbai sat in the back.
Every so often, Qi Yunduo could not help but look back. Qi Shenbai still had the sa expression, calm and cold, enough to make her shudder.
Xu Jiaojiao, on the other hand, was chatting with soone on her phone, so she did not notice the wistful expression on Qi Yunduo’s face.
Qi Yunduo felt that she should not have agreed so quickly, but it was too late to get out of the car now.
When they arrived at Qingshui Villa, Qi Yunduo wanted to slip away, but Xu Jiaojiao grabbed her. “You’ll sleep with tonight.”
Qi Shenbai’s expression turned even stormier.
As Qi Yunduo was dragged into Xu Jiaojiao’s room, she could not help but ask, “Do you and my brother sleep in separate rooms?”
“Yeah, well… I get rowdy in my sleep. It’s better for us to sleep separately,” Xu Jiaojiao pursed her lips.
Qi Yunxiao was naive, but she was not a fool. She knew that Xu Jiaojiao wasn’t telling the truth. There was not a single trace of a man’s presence in her room. From the furnishings to the wardrobe, it was all feminine. Even a fool would be able to tell that sothing was off.
However, Qi Yunduo knew that this was a private matter between Xu Jiaojiao and her brother, so it was not appropriate for her to ask too much..
