The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 376 - 374
Qiao Qiqi had no idea that Sun Zi liked Rong Yun, nor did she know that Sun Zi actually hated her because of Rong Yun. Even if she knew, she wouldn’t care!
She didn’t take a snake-hearted person like Qiao Yue’er seriously, let alone someone brainless like Sun Zi who was being used as a tool?
At this moment, Qiao Yue’er was huddled in a corner, watching the radiant girl surrounded by people from afar. Suddenly, she felt like a stinky rat hiding in the dark! It wasn’t supposed to be like this! The person standing in the bright light should be her! Why was it reversed now?
How could a wild girl from the countryside have such abilities?
Her gaze was fixed on Qiao Qiqi, and suddenly a scene flashed through her mind. It seemed like a wedding; she was the bride, and the groom was Lu Mochen. Her best friends and all her friends were there, everyone looking at her with envy. Meanwhile, Qiao Qiqi was an ugly and incomplete person!
The scene flashed by, and Qiao Yue’er held her head, frowning. What was going on? Why would she have such a scene in her head!
These scenes were indeed what she had long designed.
Someone noticed her unusual behavior and kindly asked her about her condition. Qiao Yue’er suddenly pushed the person away and stumbled out. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
The guests felt even more sympathy for this adopted daughter of the Qiao Family. It seemed that her future days wouldn’t be easy.
This time, the Qiao Family truly didn’t notice Qiao Yue’er. The whole family was around Qiao Qiqi.
"Dad, I’m hungry. Please invite the guests to be seated." Qiao Qiqi looked at the time, feeling it was about right. After dinner, everyone could head home earlier to rest.
"Alright, alright, get ready to be seated. Daughter, just hang in there a bit longer. You can eat soon." As soon as Qiao Yaozu heard his daughter was hungry, he immediately went to prepare.
Qiao Qiqi glanced at her slightly disappointed mother standing nearby and sighed silently. What Qiao Yue’er had done today likely also hurt her mother’s heart, but eventually, her mother had to accept the fact that Qiao Yue’er couldn’t tolerate her. No one could help her; she could only slowly come to terms with it.
"Miss Qiao, there’s a person outside claiming to have a gift for you, but he doesn’t have an invitation. What do you want to do?" A server ran over to consult Qiao Qiqi.
"I’ll go take a look." Qiao Qiqi asked Guan Ziyuan to take care of everyone and went out first.
Gu Shili immediately followed when he saw this.
When Qiao Qiqi reached the entrance, she saw in the distance a man pacing on the road, with excellent height and delicate appearance. She recognized him as Yuan Zichen at a glance.
As soon as Yuan Zichen saw her, he became nervous. He tightened his grip on the gift in his hand. Qiao Qiqi walked toward him, and Yuan Zichen quickly walked toward her as well.
Gu Shili, seeing that Qiao Qiqi was not in any danger, just stood at the door and didn’t follow, simply watching the two of them.
"Yuan Zichen, what brings you here?" Qiao Qiqi was genuinely surprised that he would come to her birthday party. Since the invitations were sent by her father and she only invited her classmates, she definitely didn’t invite Yuan Zichen.
"I heard by chance that your birthday party was here, so I came to try my luck. I didn’t expect to actually find it." Yuan Zichen showed a shy smile, his eyes brightened up.
"Come inside with me. We’re just about to start eating." Qiao Qiqi was still very happy about his arrival; she truly didn’t expect him to come.
"No, I... I have something to do later. This is a birthday gift for you; I hope you don’t mind." Yuan Zichen handed over the small pink box in his hand.
