[Tang Honghe: A chance encounter with a beauty.]
[Qu Jiashu: Where are you guys hanging out without ?]
[Paula is back, let’s et up tonight.]
[Long ti no see, Paula has beco even more beautiful.]
After finishing their afternoon tea, Qiao Xi and Xie Baola went straight to the mall.
The mall was nearby, and Qiao Xi didn’t drive. She walked there with Xie Baola.
Just as the two of them arrived at the mall, Su Tutu was also getting out of Sheng Chao’s car.
Sheng Chao personally dropped her off, raised his hand and touched her head, "I’ll pick you up when you’re done shopping."
"No need to pick up. I’ll just go with Xixi."
Sheng Chao looked at her with a hint of lancholy, asking, "They’re going to Xiaotang Mountain tonight, will you join them?"
Su Tutu knew they had a get-together to welco Xie Baola back to the country.
Su Tutu nodded, "Mhm."
Sheng Chao could only say, "Alright, then go with them."
Su Tutu giggled, "Okay."
To appease her jealous husband, Su Tutu tiptoed and gave Sheng Chao a peck on the chin and patted his chest in a comforting manner.
Qiao Xi and Xie Baola stood by and watched them.
After their intimate mont, as if no one else was present, Sheng Chao lifted his gaze and inadvertently swept it over the two won.
Sheng Chao said indifferently, "Xixi."
Qiao Xi slightly curved her lips, "Brother Chao."
Sheng Chao’s narrow eyes quickly glanced over Xie Baola.
Xie Baola raised her eyebrows and took the initiative to say hello, "Brother Chao, long ti no see."
Sheng Chao was at odds with the Sheng Family. He was driven out of Hai City as a child and had reclaid his influence over the Sheng Family in the past few years.
He established his own empire.
Now no one dared to look down on him.
He was around the sa age as Qu Jiashu and the others, but everyone would call him "Brother Chao," as a sign of respect for him.
"Long ti no see." Sheng Chao smiled faintly, and they introduced each other, "This is my wife, Su Tutu. The Xie Family’s young miss, Xie Baola."
Xie Baola sized up Su Tutu. Her naturally beautiful smile tilted up even more, and her tone was lazy and amused, "I like beauties, a good sister of Xixi’s is my sister from now on too."
Yes, Xie Baola was all about the looks.
Both n and won alike.
She liked to be friends with good-looking people.
Sheng Chao: "..."
Just as Xie Baola was greeting Sheng Chao, Su Tutu was sizing her up at the sa ti.
She didn’t expect Qiao Xi’s best friend to be such a cool beauty, with a sophisticated look and an impressive deanor.
A sweet and charming sister that one could never get enough of!
Who wouldn’t love such a beauty?
Su Tutu tilted her head, "You’re not bad-looking yourself. No wonder you’re my good sister’s bestie, so you’re my sister now too."
The friendship between girls ca quickly.
Weird and wonderful, adorable and lovely.
Xie Baola lifted her chin slightly, "Let’s go."
Each taking one of Qiao Xi’s arms, the two won entered the mall together.
The trio headed straight for the clothing store—to try on clothes.
All of them were big spenders.
Spurred on by Su Tutu and Xie Baola, Qiao Xi also bought a lot of clothes to take ho.
The three of them happily walked out of the store with their shopping bags full, and they ran right into Qiao Nan who was shopping with her friends.
Su Tutu stopped.
Xie Baola’s eyes twitched, "Tutu, why did you stop?"
"Ran into soone I know."
Xie Baola only felt that Qiao Nan looked sowhat familiar but did not recognize her.
Qiao Nan looked unfriendly, "Qiao Xi, what are you doing here?"
This woman was always so radiant, and Qiao Nan felt jealous at the sight.
Why do so people always seem to live so well?
Qiao Xi hooked her lips into a smile, her expression cold, "Is this place owned by your family, that I can’t be here?"
Qiao Nan scoffed, disdainfully saying, "Just unlucky to see you here, that’s all."
Su Tutu spat out dismissively, "We’re the unlucky ones seeing you!"
"Who’s this?" Xie Baola nearly rolled her eyes to the sky, her expression carrying a hint of disdain, "Looks a bit like you, Xixi."
She frowned slightly.
Su Tutu chuckled, "Saying she looks like Xixi is an insult to Xixi. Paula, have you forgotten about Xixi’s step-sister?"
Su Tutu emphasized the words "step-sister," saying it with a tone that was neither overtly friendly nor hostile.
Paula?
It was only then that Qiao Nan noticed Xie Baola.
It was impossible for her not to recognize Xie Baola.
Xie Baola got along exceptionally well with Qiao Xi, and every ti she visited the Qiao Family, only Qiao Xi received gifts, but she never did.
Wang Wen knew Xie Baola’s status and desperately wanted Qiao Nan to be friends with her, but Xie Baola had no interest in paying any attention to Qiao Nan.
Qiao Nan disliked Xie Baola just as much because she was close friends with Qiao Xi.
She didn’t expect Xie Baola to be back.
"So it’s you," Xie Baola rembered Qiao Nan, "The little pest who always tried to hang around us back then, annoying as hell. And now, even more so, the daughter of a mistress, do you even have any sha?"
"What...what are you talking about?"
Qiao Nan hated when people referred to her as the daughter of a mistress; her mother was legitimate!
"Shut up!" Xie Baola had no desire to hear another word from her, her eyes chillingly drooping with intimidating presence, "Get lost!"
"I..."
Qiao Nan wanted to say sothing more, but the person beside her hurriedly dragged her away.
They couldn’t afford to ss with Xie Baola.
"The disgusting person is gone, the air is indeed much better now," Su Tutu hooked her red lips, gesturing with a small hand, "Let’s go."
Qiao Nan, watching their retreating backs coldly, sharply questioned the person beside her, "Why did you pull away just now?"
"That’s Xie Baola, for goodness’ sake!"
"I know she’s Xie Baola, but so what?"
So what?
The person silently rolled their eyes internally.
Xie Baola could crush you with one finger.
She was soone not even the Chu Family dared to disrespect.
But they didn’t want to fall out with Qiao Nan, the fool, so they coaxed her, "If we encounter soone disgusting, we just avoid them. That Xie Baola is like a mad dog who just loves to bite people. Why bother arguing with a dog?"
That seed to please Qiao Nan, who harrumphed, "Let’s go."
After arranging for people to deliver their things to their respective hos, Qiao Xi and the others, wearing their newly bought clothes, headed to the beauty salon.
Su Tutu took Xie Baola to the sa beauty salon she had taken Qiao Xi to before.
After their beauty treatnts, it was almost eight o’clock.
Xie Baola drove the two sisters to Xiaotang Mountain.
Qiao Xi’s phone received many ssages from Shen Dang, but she had no ti to check her phone while shopping and getting a facial.
Of course, she hadn’t replied to him.
Sitting in the car, Qiao Xi slowly opened WeChat.
[Boss Shen: What are you busy with?]
[Boss Shen: Why aren’t you responding to my ssages?]
[Boss Shen: Girlfriend?]
[Boss Shen: If you don’t respond, I might have to call the police.]
Each ssage was only a few minutes apart.
[Boss Shen: Alright, I won’t call the police. Just pay attention to .]
Another ten minutes or so—
[Boss Shen: Teacher Qiao, do you realize that behavior like this is considered emotional violence in a relationship?]
