Chapter 90: Haven’t You Embarrassed Yourself Enough?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Xia Chuxi saw how aggrieved Qiao Yiren was, he remembered how her face was swollen after she was slapped by Su Qianxun. Even after that, Qiao Yiren did not stop saying good things about Su Qianxun because she was worried that Xia Chuxi would seek revenge on her behalf.
Qiao Yiren had always been so kind hearted. On the contrary, Su Qianxun was never willing to acknowledge her wrongdoings, as if she would never admit defeat to anyone. Xia Chuxi stared at Su Qianxun like he was staring at scum.
“Come on, stop crying. I’ve loved you since the beginning. I was only engaged to her because I was forced to.”
“Qianxun, I know that you don’t like my daughter and I. But, how could wear this to attend your younger sister’s engagement ceremony?”
“She snatched my fiancé away. Don’t tell me that you people expect me to attend this engagement ceremony with a joyous heart. Aren’t you people making things difficult for me?”
“Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough? Come in now!” Qiao Bonian looked at the young woman, who was a distance away, with an icy gaze.
Su Qianxun no longer wanted to exchange nonsensical words with the members of the Qiao family either. She walked into the hall without looking at anyone.
When she passed by Xia Chuxi and Qiao Yiren, Xia Chuxi felt a strange surge of fury in his chest when he looked at the nonchalant expression on her tiny face.
A lot of guests were in attendance for the engagement ceremony that day, and most of them had been the Su family’s good friends for generations. After Su Qianxun entered the hall, she began to look for an opportunity to enter her grandfather’s study to look for the item he had left behind for her.
It was impossible for her to go up the stairs in the hall, as many of the guests in attendance knew her. Su Qianxun planned to go to the bathroom and go up to the first floor using the servants’ staircase before heading to her grandfather’s study room.
Just as Su Qianxun was about to head to the bathroom, Qiao Bonian’s voice rang out from behind.
“Qianxun, come over here for a while.” It was obviously an undefiable order.
Su Qianxun turned and saw that Su Manni was holding on to Qiao Bonian’s arm while they were walking towards her. There was a middle-aged man next to them. The man was clearly staring at Su Qianxun, not even bothering to hide his astonishment and lust.
Su Qianxun stared expressionlessly at Qiao Bonian. “Anything?”
“Let me introduce you to Chairman Li. Chairman Li, this is my daughter, Qianxun.”
“Miss Su, I’ve heard a lot about you.” Chairman Li extended his hand for a handshake.
Su Qianxun stood expressionlessly without paying any heed to the man’s extended hand. She gave Qiao Bonian, her father, a deathly stare!
Qiao Bonian was rather embarrassed by Su Qianxun’s obvious glare. He tried his best to suppress his fury. “Chairman Li is speaking to you, where are your manners?”
“Hehe, it’s okay. Miss Su is a really straightforward person, and I admire that very much.” Chairman Li almost could not avert his lewd gaze away from Su Qianxun’s body.
He really did not expect Qiao Bonian to actually let such a beautiful daughter fall into his clutches just for the sake of one business deal.
A distance away, Xia Chuxi, who was with Qiao Yiren, kept observing the interaction between Qiao Bonian, Chairman Li, and Su Qianxun. Qiao Yiren was totally infuriated by this, and she extended her hand to tug at Xia Chuxi. Only then did Xia Chuxi turned towards Qiao Yiren again. His gaze turned extremely profound.”
“I’m sorry, but I really need to use the bathroom. I’ll take my leave for now.”
Of course, Su Qianxun knew what Qiao Bonian was up to. It was crystal clear, was it not? However, Su Qianxun’s already-numb heart still ached at the notion. Qiao Bonian was, after all, her father, and once upon a time, he had also doted upon her as well as loved her.
Qiao Bonian’s face immediately darkened. “Chairman Li, we’ve really spoilt this daughter of ours. Please don’t take it to heart,” Su Manni said with a smile.
“Of course not. Chairman Qiao, we must wrap up our deal today, all right?” After Chairman Li said that, he fixed his gaze on Su Qianxun who was walking towards the bathroom. There was determination in his gaze.”
