The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 416 - 414

When Qiao Qiqi learned the news that Rong Hua was not dead, it was after she woke up from a nap. Eating the food Gu Shili made, she raised her eyebrows, surprised that the woman’s life was so resilient.

"What do you plan to do next?" Gu Shili added some dishes to her plate.

Qiao Qiqi, eating while looking at the news on her phone, said, "Since I’m here, I’ll start by opening the jade store."

Just as she finished speaking, her phone was snatched away. She watched Gu Shili set her phone aside and said, "You shouldn’t keep looking at your phone while eating; it’s bad for digestion."

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

Feels like this benefactor manages me more than my parents do!

She accepted her fate and continued eating.

After the meal, Qiao Qiqi sat in the living room and snacked on the fruit he had prepared. After tidying up the kitchen, Gu Shili came out with a small box in his hand and handed it to Qiao Qiqi.

"What’s this?" Qiao Qiqi looked at the box in his hand from side to side.

"A gift. Open it and see if you like it."

Qiao Qiqi took it and opened the box. Inside was a bracelet with a slender LCD screen.

"A smart bracelet?"

"Yes, it’s a new product that hasn’t been released yet. Help me try it out," Gu Shili took out the bracelet and helped her put it on.

The purple bracelet with the black screen looked very high-end on her fair wrist, exuding an enchanting beauty.

Gu Shili was momentarily dazed.

Qiao Qiqi waved her hand in front of him, bringing him back to his senses. He awkwardly stepped back, raised his hand to cover his mouth, and coughed lightly.

"Thank you for the gift. I really like it. Today, I need to visit the Rong Family; there are some things I need to verify." Qiao Qiqi said.

"I’ll go with you."

Although they were discreet yesterday and he could ensure there wouldn’t be any evidence left behind, he feared some people might guess something, which would not be advantageous for Qiao Qiqi.

"No need, I can go by myself. I recalled some things yesterday that need verification."

After returning yesterday, Qiao Qiqi couldn’t sleep, constantly thinking about why Rong Hua would go so far against her mother. She later speculated on some possibilities.

But it needed verification.

"Be careful yourself then, let Gu Cheng handle the store matters, and tell him whatever you need."

"I know."

Qiao Qiqi has already turned eighteen and can get a driver’s license, but she has not taken the test yet, so she had to take a taxi to the Rong Family residence.

Because of Rong Hua’s incident, almost all the Rong Family members in the Capital City had returned home. Though Rong Hua had been confirmed not to be a biological daughter of the Rong Family, she still carried the name of a Rong Family member, and this matter had not been publicly disclosed.

Old Mr. Rong was worried that someone might harbor ill intentions toward the Rong Family. After all, the Rong Family had no shortage of enemies over the years; who knows if they might target other descendants as well.

When Qiao Qiqi arrived, the Rong Family members were all in the living room having a meeting.

Upon hearing the butler say that Qiao Qiqi was visiting, Rong Yuan’s eyes immediately lit up, and he stood up, striding long-leggedly to go out and greet her.

At this moment, Rong Nian Nian was crying like a tearful mess since the person lying in the hospital was her mother. Seeing Rong Yuan so enthusiastic about Qiao Qiqi infuriated her because despite her crying state, her eldest brother hadn’t even comforted her at all.

The minute he heard Qiao Qiqi had come, he was so happy to receive her. Who exactly was his sister?

"Brother Wu, you can’t abandon me! My eldest and second brothers no longer want me," Rong Nian Nian’s hand clenched tightly around Rong Che’s hand, her tears falling in a flurry.
