The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 619 - 587
After finishing the call with Rong Che, Qiao Qiqi asked the servant to bring a bowl of chicken soup to Rong Xun’s room. The door was slightly ajar, and she stood at the entrance listening to the person inside on the phone.
"Save your honeyed words, there’s nothing to discuss with you!" Rong Xun’s voice carried a chill.
Seeing that there was no more sound inside, Qiao Qiqi knocked on the door and pushed it open to walk in.
Rong Xun’s expression immediately softened upon seeing her, revealing a gentle smile, "Qiqi, why haven’t you slept yet?"
"Taking care of some things, I planned to drink some chicken soup and then sleep." Qiao Qiqi gestured with the bowl in her hand.
"It’s good to have a sister; no one has brought me chicken soup for years." Rong Xun smiled, came over to take the bowl, and pulled Qiao Qiqi down to sit on the sofa.
"Then I’ll bring it to you whenever you’re home from now on; chicken soup, milk, ginseng soup, to make you happy every day!" Qiao Qiqi was all smiles.
"I might just die of happiness then!" Rong Xun rubbed her head.
"That won’t do, I want every brother to live long and healthy lives." Qiao Qiqi held his arm, signaling for him to drink the chicken soup first.
Rong Xun immediately picked up the bowl and finished the soup in one gulp.
"Third Brother, I heard that you’re going to participate in a contest soon. What kind of contest is it?"
"It’s a big international competition, with a high level of prestige. Do you also want to compete?" Rong Xun immediately showed interest. If his sister wanted to join, he could forego the championship.
"I don’t have time; I have to fully prepare for the college entrance exam."
"That’s true, scheduling conflict. But if you could join, I believe with your talent, you’d definitely win the championship."
"Third Brother, you have too much faith in me. I’m not good at everything; I’m more interested in medicine." Qiao Qiqi laughed.
"You... Are you nervous about the upcoming college entrance exam?"
"It’s impossible to be nervous; I’m just unsure if I can be the top scorer this year."
"If you set your mind to it, you can achieve it."
"It’s not certain, there’s still Gu Shili." Qiao Qiqi wrinkled her nose, realizing her biggest rival was actually her benefactor.
"The Gu Family’s kid? That kid surely has some skill. How about I come up with a plan! On the day of the college entrance exam, I’ll break his leg so he can’t attend!"
Rong Xun thought this plan was feasible.
Qiao Qiqi almost choked on her saliva.
"No, Brother, I think I need to rely on my own strength to become the top scorer!" Qiao Qiqi firmly refused.
"My sister is determined! Third Brother believes in you!"
...
After returning to her room, Qiao Qiqi hesitated but then decided to check Third Brother’s call records and listened to what the person on the call had said.
Upon hearing the call’s content, she was genuinely angry. No wonder Brother Wu cared so much about that ex-girlfriend; turns out she was such a shameless person.
That woman actually asked Third Brother to give up participating in the competition, and even requested his help in designing a piece for her using his name!
Qiao Qiqi was truly seeing such brazen shamelessness for the first time, it was astonishing!
And that woman even said, that even if Third Brother did not agree now, he would surely consent eventually.
Qiao Qiqi didn’t dare to take it lightly; what did that woman’s words mean? Could she have some leverage over Third Brother?
No way, she trusted her brother’s character very much, surely he wouldn’t do anything to feel guilty about.
She needed to investigate what was up with that woman first.
