1347 Learn From One’s Misfortune

Qiao Xi looked at the group of people in front of her who were here to pick her up and was stunned for a moment. Then, she followed Gu Zheng through the special passage.

Gu Zheng smiled warmly and said in a clear voice, “Xi Xi, what are you doing in Y Nation?”

Qiao Xi instantly choked. Gu Zheng said slowly, “Liuli doesn’t seem to have any activities or projects that require you to personally come to Y Nation recently. Moreover, you’ve never collaborated with Y Nation. What matters require the presence of the chief designer?”

Qiao Xi: “…”

She said self-righteously, “Ah Zheng, of course, I’m here to accompany you! It’s not safe for a man like you to be outside. Is there a problem with me accompanying you?”

Gu Zheng’s eyes were filled with gentleness as he smiled like a fox.

Qiao Xi gulped and looked away. She did not know what grudge Gu Zheng had against the Brook family for the time being, nor did she know the motive behind the Brook family’s actions. She came this time to unravel these mysteries.

“President Gu.” The person who picked him up asked respectfully, “Are you going to the hotel now?”

“Xi Xi, do you want to rest?” Gu Zheng turned his head gently to ask the person beside him.

Qiao Xi nodded, and Gu Zheng instructed, “Song Shiyu, prepare the documents for the meeting in the afternoon.”

Song Shiyu: “…”

He looked at Song Shijing in a complicated manner, his eyes filled with helplessness. The president was not here for a meeting at all, nor did he have to attend any meetings. What materials did he have to prepare?

When everyone arrived at the hotel, they had a simple meal. Gu Zheng and Song Shijing left the hotel, saying that they were going to Gu Corporation’s Y Nation branch company for a meeting.

Qiao Xi stayed in the suite alone and was about to catch up on sleep when there was a sudden knock on the door. She stood up and walked to the door. The person outside was still knocking rhythmically.

The person’s tone was respectful and gentle. “Miss Qiao, I’m sorry to disturb you. Our master has something to give you.”

She frowned, her face filled with confusion. Who was their master?

She only seemed to know Lu Zhi in Y Nation, but if Lu Zhi was looking for her, he would have called in advance and not rashly come. Just as Qiao Xi was about to refuse, she suddenly thought of someone.

She did know someone in Y Nation. That man had a long-standing grudge against her!

The other party seemed to know that she was in the suite and said respectfully again, “Miss Qiao, Sir knows you well. He knows that you’re unwilling to see him. He said that you love and hate him deeply. He believes you still have him in your heart, and that’s why you’re unwilling to forgive him.”

Qiao Xi grunted coldly. Look at what he was saying. Did that man mean to say that if she did not open the door, it was because she still had him in her heart?

That man had always been able to easily manipulate people’s hearts. After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Xi felt that she could not be too polite to him, so she directly pressed the button for room service in the hotel. Not long after, staff and security guards arrived at the door of the suite.

Qiao Xi heard footsteps outside the door. She said, “I don’t know the person outside. I don’t know why he’s knocking on my door. Please take him away.”

When the person saw the staff and security guards outside the door, he said unhurriedly, “Miss Qiao, it’s okay if you don’t open the door. Our master has already expected this. He has sent you many emails and letters over the years, but you didn’t reply to any of them. Is it because you don’t dare to interact with him anymore?”

Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly. This person’s temper was really the same as Huo Yuzhou’s. He was about to be chased away, but he did not panic in the slightest and was still provoking her.

After he finished speaking and saw that Qiao Xi still had no reaction, the person could only leave first. After a moment, Qiao Xi opened the door and saw a bouquet of pink tulips at the door with some white lilies around them.

The flower language of tulips was eternal love, while lilies signified a happy return. Huo Yuzhou’s meaning was already very obvious.

Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and glanced coldly at the bouquet of flowers before closing the door heavily. It was this man who used her to learn medicine and almost burned down the library.

Did he think that a bouquet of flowers, jewelry, and some ambiguous words could make her fall for him? She was no longer the innocent young lady she used to be. After suffering a loss from this man, she learned her lesson. Naturally, she would not believe his clumsy flattery.

…

In the study of the Brook family.

“Sir, Miss Qiao didn’t open the door or accept your gift,” the assistant reported respectfully.

Huo Yuzhou’s fingers were long and well-defined. He was tapping the table lightly. His expression did not change when he heard this, and he only nodded.

“That bouquet of flowers was left at the door. Later on, the hotel staff thought that they had sent it to the wrong place, so they brought it to the front desk.”
