Chapter 284: Taking Revenge For Mrs. Gu
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“It affected Xi Xi.”
Gu Zheng’s voice was low as he said word by word, “My wife is unhappy.
“I want to take revenge for her!”
Yao Mengqing’s expression froze.
Take revenge for Qiao Xi?
Gu Zheng said indifferently, “If Lin Jie makes my wife unhappy, he has to pay the price. If my wife is not appeased, the Lin family’s food factory’s operations will continue to be suspended.
“Yao Mengqing, I’ve warned you long ago that Mrs. Gu is my bottom line. I hope you’ll remember this.”
Yao Mengqing’s body went soft, and her breathing trembled.
No! Impossible!
How could Ah Zheng… attack the Lin family for Qiao Xi?
Qiao Xi held Gu Zheng’s hand and said arrogantly, “You’re not apologizing, right? Then wait for the Lin family to go bankrupt!”
Lin Jie gritted his teeth. “Qiao Xi! Do you have the ability to make my family go bankrupt?”
“I don’t, but Gu Zheng can do it. He already said that if I’m not appeased, your factory will be suspended!”
Qiao Xi pretended to be surprised. “You’re not possibly thinking that Gu Zheng is just scaring you, right?”
Lin Jie’s throat tightened. “Gu Zheng, are you breaking off all ties with me because of this woman? Are you going to make the entire Lin family pay the price? I’ve been your friend for so many years, and this is how you’re going to treat me?”
Qiao Xi was speechless. If he really treated Gu Zheng as a friend, why would he ruin their relationship?
Actually, Lin Jie only treated Gu Zheng as a money tree because the title of being Gu Zheng’s friend could let him succeed in high society.
Lin Jie was so scared that his whole body was trembling. He was afraid that if Gu Zheng gave the order, the Lin family would be doomed.
In his panic, he blurted out, “What spell did this b*tch cast on you?! She’s—”
“Ah Jie!” Yao Mengqing interrupted him with a loud voice. If he insulted Qiao Xi in front of her, it would only make the situation worse.
Yao Mengqing walked in front of Qiao Xi and bowed deeply. “Xi Xi, I’m sorry. I apologize on behalf of Ah Jie. After Ah Jie reported you, he regretted it very much and wanted to clarify the matter.
“I didn’t expect you to explain yourself so quickly. You also got Wang Qing expelled. I’m glad that you weren’t affected. You’re so gentle and kind. Can you forgive Ah Jie? He did it for Ah Zheng and doesn’t have any ill intention against you.”
Qiao Xi took a sip of tea. The warm taste made her frown ease.
Yao Mengqing was such a two-faced b*tch.
“Miss Yao, I’m not a gentle and kind person. On the contrary, I’m vengeful. If someone doesn’t apologize, I’ll be unhappy. If I’m unhappy, Gu Zheng will attack the Lin family.
“Even if he apologizes, I might not forgive him. If apologizing is useful, why would we need the police?”
Yao Mengqing bit her lip. This Qiao Xi was really too difficult to deal with.
It was just a misunderstanding. Why could she not forgive Ah Jie?
“I…”
“If I slapped Miss Yao and immediately apologized to you, would you forgive me?” Qiao Xi asked.
Yao Mengqing looked at Gu Zheng helplessly. She was about to cry.
How could Ah Zheng like such a petty woman like Qiao Xi?
He should like those kinds of young misses who were aloof from worldly affairs and gentle like water.
Hence, Yao Mengqing had always been gentle to make Gu Zheng think that she was the most suitable woman for him.
Yao Mengqing choked softly. “Xi Xi… You’re Ah Zheng’s wife. No matter what you’ve done, as long as you apologize, I’ll forgive you.”
The atmosphere was silent.
Qiao Xi smiled lightly and walked straight to the kitchen. When she appeared again, she was holding a shiny kitchen knife.
Without saying anything, she raised the kitchen knife and threw it at Yao Mengqing. The knife spun in the air a few times and pierced into Yao Mengqing’s side.
“Ah!”
Yao Mengqing shouted loudly, her face pale from fright. Her body could not help but tremble. “Xi Xi, have you gone mad?”
“Qiao Xi! You want to kill someone?” Lin Jie hurriedly stood in front of Yao Mengqing and shouted.
Qiao Xi slowly walked to the side and picked up the kitchen knife. She said with a calm voice, “I’m sorry!”
“You think apologizing is enough? Are you trying to kill someone? I was the one who reported you. If you have any problems, come at me.. Why are you making things difficult for Meng Qing? If the Yao family finds out about this, they won’t let you off!”
