Chapter 537 - Deliberately Making Things Difficult
Gu Xuexue thought to herself, I finally hired a private tutor recently and corrected my English accent. I’m just waiting to show off.
Who knew that this little princess who loved to show off would actually already be practising French!
The high society loved to compete on which family’s young mistress knew more languages. How boring! It was as if there was no translation at home! Who would still speak a foreign language when doing business now?
But her complaints only lasted for a moment. Soon, she put on a gentle smile and raised the microphone. “On behalf of Qing Yuxuan, I welcome everyone. Qing Yuxuan is an outstanding talent in old jade jewelry, but our new designer, Yang Xiaoqing, has restored it and gave it a more magnificent life…”
Although it was inferior to Bai Yingzhu’s French, her fluent and perfect pronunciation still received applause.
There were even many rich madams who were inquiring about Gu Xuexue’s background. They all praised her for being able to participate in Qing Yuxuan’s business operations at a young age. She could be considered to be very capable. They all thought about which nephews of the appropriate age at home could be betrothed to her.
Gu Qiqi stood at the edge of the crowd. She held a glass of Hennessy in her fair hand and shook it slowly.
She watched Gu Xuexue’s performance coldly.
Seeing that Gu Xuexue deliberately brushed past the crowd and deliberately revealed a provocative and smug smile to her when no one was paying attention, Gu Qiqi glared back in disdain.
The little dirty turtle said indignantly, “Master Silver, do you want me to summon a few ugly dogs from the pet beauty salon next door and make Gu Xuexue cry on the spot? Or let her make a strange moaning sound from her microphone? Or let the ceiling lightbulb smash her head? Hmph, let’s see if she still has the cheek to stick her tail so high in front of you. She doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth!”
Gu Qiqi curved her lips. “There’s no need.”
“Ah? Then, will we let her succeed? How infuriating!”
“Of course not. I won’t use these petty tricks. I’ll use my strength to slap her face. That would be more satisfying.”
The little dirty turtle was speechless. Master, I don’t understand!
I still prefer to kill the other party simply and roughly like Master Jue!
After Gu Xuexue finished her speech, there was thunderous applause.
The reporters took close-up photos.
The rich ladies couldn’t help but ask.
“Miss Gu, did the Gu family ask you to participate in Qing Yuxuan’s operations because you know jade very well?”
“Miss Gu, you should be the youngest female chairman in the business world, right? You’re even one year younger than Gu Yuanyuan!”
“Miss Gu, I think your etiquette and posture are much better than Gu Yuanyuan’s. Just now, Gu Yuanyuan and the dog… After that kind of thing happened, could it be that Qing Yuxuan’s executive director might be changed to you in the future?”
How was Gu Xuexue a director of Qing Yuxuan? It was just that Gu Yuanyuan was unlucky tonight and she picked up a ready-made bargain.
Since there was a bargain, she didn’t mind picking it up to the end.
Looking at Gu Qiqi who was at the edge of the crowd, she deliberately raised her voice and said, “Qiqi! Sister! Did you raise your hand just now too? Do you have a question to ask me too? Everyone, please make way. It’s rare for my cousin to come to such a high-end cocktail party. Let me give her a chance to ask a question, okay?”
Gu Xuexue seemed to be taking care of Gu Qiqi, but in fact, every word she said was mocking Gu Qiqi for being a country bumpkin who had never attended a high-end cocktail party!
Furthermore, Gu Qiqi would definitely not be prepared if she asked Gu Qiqi to speak by name. When the time came, it would be so embarrassing to stammer. If Gu Qiqi deliberately said something polite to praise her, that would be hypocritical. If Gu Qiqi’s temper flared up and she scolded her in public, that would be even better… She could just pretend to be a bullied white lotus. This was what she was best at.
Anyway, no matter what Gu Qiqi did or said, she would embarrass herself tonight.
If Gu Qiqi was smarter, she would pretend not to hear him. It would be safest to be a coward.
What she didn’t expect was…
Gu Qiqi’s next move!
A faint and cold voice drifted over.
