Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xia Cheng raised his head arrogantly and stared at Qiao Xi with disdain. “Xi Xi, as long as you apologize to ngyan, this matter will be over. We’ll happily attend ngyan’s apprenticeship banquet. When Mr. Fang cos, I’ll get ngyan to introduce you. You’re my granddaughter, so I naturally won’t treat you badly!
“Many people can’t even dream of getting to know Mr. Fang Shiyun in their lives. You probably won’t refuse such a precious opportunity. Xi Xi, quickly apologize!”
Qiao Xi sneered. “Oh! Mr. Xia, do you think I’m here for Fang Shiyun?”
Xia Cheng frowned. If she was not doing this for Fang Shiyun, what else could it be? Her relationship with ngyan had never been good. It was impossible for her to attend just to congratulate ngyan. Could it be that she wanted to ruin things?
At the thought of this, Xia Cheng’s eyes were filled with vigilance. His tone beca even more stiff. “Xi Xi, let tell you. Today is ngyan’s big day. No matter what, I won’t let you fool around! If you want to stay, quickly apologize to ngyan. Otherwise, you’ll leave imdiately! ngyan is tolerant and won’t bicker with you, but you can’t take advantage of her!”
Qiao Xi was expressionless and did not want to explain herself to an idiot.
When the guests heard Fang Shiyun’s na, their eyes instantly lit up. They hurriedly echoed, “You should apologize! Miss Qiao, don’t be too stubborn. You and Miss Xia are sisters. Miss Xia has beco Mr. Fang Shiyun’s apprentice now. Is it still so difficult for you to admit your mistake? If you continue to be stubborn, even if you manage to see Mr. Fang Shiyun, he won’t care about you.”
“That’s right! You ca to the apprenticeship banquet for Mr. Fang. Now, you’ve offended Mr. Fang’s beloved apprentice before even eting him. The gains won’t make up for the losses!”
“Your grandfather is doing this for your own good. You just have to apologize. What’s so difficult about it?”
Everyone was persuading Qiao Xi. It seed to be for her own good, but it was actually to please Xia Cheng and Xia ngyan.
The waiter knew Qiao Xi’s identity. She was the daughter of the Yin family! If he angered her, she could chase everyone in the Xia family out in a fit of anger.
At the thought of this, the waiter could not help but tremble. He hurriedly went forward to explain, “Mr. Xia, you’ve really misunderstood. Miss Qiao didn’t co to Yingyun Hall to attend Miss Xia’s apprenticeship banquet!”
As soon as these words were spoken, soone retorted, “Then which room did Qiao Xi book? Show us the evidence!”
The waiter did not dare to casually expose Qiao Xi’s identity, nor did he dare to rashly ntion that the Yin family was holding a birthday party here. He could only brace himself and say, “Miss Qiao didn’t make a reservation, but…”
“Since she didn’t, how did she get in? Did you accept money and violate the rules of Yingyun Hall to let her in? Or did she enter because she’s Miss Xia’s cousin?”
The waiter was speechless.
Qiao Xi curled her lips. What this person ant was that if the waiter denied that she entered through Xia ngyan, then it ant that the waiter let her in through the back door after taking her money. Hence, it was either she lost her dignity or the waiter lost his job.
However, they did not expect another situation!
The waiter looked at Qiao Xi and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she was still calm. Then, he deliberated and replied, “No! Miss Qiao was able to enter Yingyun Hall because she’s here to attend another banquet. Mr. Xia, Yingyun Hall has private rooms on other floors as well. Soone invited Miss Qiao here, so even if she didn’t make an appointnt, she can still enter.”
He did not dare to expose the Yin family’s identity, so he did not ntion the Yin family in his words. He only hoped that this explanation could help Qiao Xi escape.
However, Xia Cheng still felt that Qiao Xi had bribed the waiter. His voice turned cold. “Xi Xi, stop fooling around! So what if you relied on ngyan to enter? No one will laugh at you. Why bribe the waiter to deceive everyone? Be good and quickly apologize to ngyan. The banquet is about to start. Don’t waste everyone’s ti.”
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and glanced lazily at Xia Cheng. Then, her tone suddenly turned cold. “Old Master Xia, don’t you understand human language?”
The entire place was silent.
Xia Cheng widened his eyes and looked at Qiao Xi in disbelief. He never expected that Qiao Xi would say such disrespectful words in public. He could not help but roar furiously. “Qiao Xi!”
Qiao Xi said indifferently, “There’s no need to be so loud. I’m not as old as you, and my ears are still working just fine! The waiter has already explained why I ca to Yingyun Hall, but you just insist on thinking that I’m here to attend the apprenticeship banquet. Yingyun Hall isn’t specially ant to serve the Xia family. Soone invited here, so why should I apologize to Xia ngyan?”
