Chapter 1470 - 1470 If We Could Do It Again
1470 If We Could Do It Again
Kang Jichuan stared blankly at the spot, Qiao Xi’s words echoing in his mind. It was not easy for him and his father to find his sister. Could it be that they still had to separate?
However, he… He really did not mean to eliminate Xi Xi. His heart just ached for Qingzhi, and he hoped that she could live to show her value in her lifetime. He did not know that Xi Xi had also participated in the competition and coincidentally became Qingzhi’s opponent.
If he could do it again, he would’ve arranged for the two of them to compete separately. It would be good if the two of them advanced. No matter what, Xi Xi was his biological sister, so his heart naturally ached.
Kang Qingzhi lowered her head and pursed her lips tightly. When Qiao Xi left just now, she turned around to look at her. Her eyes were cold and soul-stirring, but they carried strong ridicule, making Kang Qingzhi feel uneasy.!!
What was Qiao Xi going to do? Was she going to expose this matter?
Actually, she was not afraid even if it was exposed. She had won the championship twice in a row and had already received the public’s recognition. What happened this time was just an accident. She was not in good health, so she wasn’t able to submit her work on time. The judges knew that she had won the championship twice in a row, so they made an exception to let her advance. This was understandable!
At the thought of this, Kang Qingzhi took a deep breath and gradually calmed down. She squeezed out a few more tears and looked at Kang Ru pitifully. “Dad, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. My sister hates me. I shouldn’t have participated in the perfume competition.”
Kang Ru sat weakly on the sofa and did not say anything.
“Before Sister left, she even glared at me. It’s all my fault. Don’t blame Brother. He did it for my own good. From now on, I won’t participate in any more competitions. I won’t make Sister angry anymore. Dad… Please forgive me.”
Kang Qingzhi’s face was pale, and her eyes were red. If it were any other time, Kang Ru’s heart would have ached a long time ago, but at this moment, Qiao Xi’s words kept echoing in his mind. ‘If my mother were still around, she would absolutely not let me suffer. Since you no longer have my mother and me in your hearts, then there’s no point in you keeping her photos.’
Kang Ru was annoyed and said impatiently, “Stop crying! Qingzhi, you’re indeed in the wrong this time. You always think so badly of Xi Xi. She didn’t do anything to you at all. Instead, you’re the one who hurt her. You didn’t apologize to her and even caused trouble in front of me. How did you become like this?!”
The moment that was said, Kang Qingzhi stopped crying.
Kang Jichuan sighed helplessly. “Qingzhi, it’s my fault for not taking Xi Xi’s feelings into consideration. She has indeed suffered. It’s reasonable for her to advance. I’ll think of a way to let you continue participating in the competition. Don’t cry.”
Kang Ru suddenly looked up with a trace of displeasure in his eyes. “Forget it. Qingzhi, don’t participate in this competition. Find some time to apologize to Xi Xi. Jichuan, you should go with her. You shouldn’t have done such a thing. You have to remember that Xi Xi is your biological sister.”
“Dad, I can apologize, but Qingzhi…” Kang Jichuan looked troubled. He knew how much Qingzhi liked to make perfumes. Even though she was sick, she would still stay up late to come up with a perfume recipe. If they did not let her participate in the competition, it would be too cruel to her.
Kang Qingzhi’s body stiffened. She choked and said, “If I don’t participate in the competition, then the Kang family’s perfume company…”
“It’s okay! Xi Xi has been wronged. If she finds out that you’re still participating in the competition, she’ll definitely be angry!” Kang Ru interrupted her without hesitation.
Kang Qingzhi’s heart trembled, and she stopped breathing.
She had lived with the Kang family for more than ten years, but her father had never said anything harsh. Now that Qiao Xi had just returned to the Kang family, her father had reprimanded her. He even disregarded the company’s interests for Qiao Xi!
Qiao Xi! Why did this b*tch come back? Five years ago, the Kang family was in chaos upon her return. Unexpectedly, it became even worse five years later!
Kang Qingzhi’s nails were digging into her palms. She lowered her head to hide the resentment in her eyes. After Kang Ru and Kang Jichuan left, she took out her phone and made a call.
As soon as the call connected, she sobbed softly. “Grandma, I… I can’t participate in the perfume competition anymore, but if I can’t participate in the competition, the Kang family’s perfume company will be affected. Our family will lose a large sum of money!
“Sister Xi Xi doesn’t want me to participate in the competition. I know… I’m just an adopted daughter. I shouldn’t compete with Sister Xi Xi, but I can’t let the company lose money! This is all my fault. I’m so sad! Sister just doesn’t like me. She doesn’t know the company’s situation, so she forced me to withdraw from the competition. Grandma… Don’t be angry. Sister Xi Xi is your biological granddaughter, after all!”
