Chapter 1085: Chapter 1081: The Lady’s Thoughts
“Well, that’s sothing to look forward to.”
Lu Xi hadn’t expected the Madam’s grand arrival and for a mont, was caught off guard as he stepped forward to greet her: “Madam, Queen Mona, Princess Carly.”
Every country has its own customs, and Lu Xi perford a symbolic gesture of courtesy: “Welco, everyone.”
Wang Han honestly hadn’t anticipated that the Madam would order a custom cheongsam from Lu Xi’s shop. His fingers slowly curled inward into a tight fist. Qiao Xiaren and Wang Yi stood to the side, refraining from saying much.
“What’s going on here?”
Carly took in the scene inside the shop—the chaos, broken items, and the resulting ss.
The Madam also noticed and seed to realize that today might not have been the best ti to co. Her gaze swept across the room and naturally landed on Qiao Xiaren standing off to the side.
“Good day, Madam.”
Faced with being noticed, Qiao Xiaren and the others had no choice but to step forward and perform a symbolic gesture of courtesy. Mona already had a feeling that the girl standing in the corner earlier seed sowhat familiar. Now, seeing her fully, she suddenly rembered—wasn’t this Qiao Xiaren?
Indeed, it’s a small world; what a coincidence to run into her here.
Queen Mona’s lips subtly curved into a faint smile. Well, then, let Qiao Xiaren clearly understand her position and just how vast the gap was between herself and Carly.
With Carly’s status, her birth alone placed her leagues above countless others.
The Madam had heard Mrs. Si ntion Qiao Xiaren multiple tis. Madam Si herself was well known—a strong-willed woman notorious for her stringent standards. In the past, The Madam had even worried that Mrs. Si’s personality might scare off her daughter-in-law. Yet now, Mrs. Si seed to be quite fond of this young woman.
“So it’s you? Mrs. Si has ntioned you to several tis. As expected, you’re both beautiful and gracefully composed.”
“Whose daughter is she?” Mona asked purposefully from the side. The Madam maintained her warm smile and answered, “She’s a star in our country. I was following the drama ‘Cold Enough’ the last ti.”
“Thank you, Madam.”
“Why are you here?” Carly, under her mother’s subtle prompting, quickly understood who Qiao Xiaren was.
Before Qiao Xiaren had the chance to respond, Wang Han, standing next to Ma Bin, eagerly interjected, “There was a bit of a misunderstanding. Miss Qiao and I had a minor dispute, but it’s all resolved now.”
Chen i, hearing Wang Han’s explanation, was clearly displeased: “What do you an by ‘misunderstanding’? My hand was injured because she pushed ! Look!”
Chen i extended her hand, still seething in anger: “Intentionally causing harm—shouldn’t I be able to call the police? Xiaohan, hurry up and get your boyfriend to report this.”
When Wang Yi heard this, she was visibly upset. After all, it was Chen i who ca looking for trouble, and she was the one who fell to the ground; now she had the audacity to accuse them?
“What’s really going on here?” The Madam’s voice carried a slightly sterner tone. With distinguished guests around, it was only natural to help resolve the present chaos.
“Miss Qiao, hitting others is not right.” Princess Carly’s Mandarin was impeccable. She smiled as she looked at Qiao Xiaren without revealing a shred of emotion inside, “In foreign states, the Prince and commoners are equal under the law. Miss Qiao, you’re still too impetuous—learn to restrain yourself.”
This speech, delivered in front of outsiders, was remarkably composed and eloquent—a perfect display of a wise and virtuous woman.
The Madam’s gaze fell upon Qiao Xiaren, faintly sighing. Indeed, one’s refinent and poise are reflected in every aspect of a person. In this regard, Qiao Xiaren might not asure up to Carly.
If she were choosing a daughter-in-law, Carly would undoubtedly be her top choice.
She truly couldn’t comprehend Mrs. Si’s reasoning. Logically speaking, the more excellent a son was, the more one would want to find a girl who could perfectly match him.
