Chapter 264: I Want To Stay In My Original Room

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Xi gave a small smile before putting on an aggrieved expression. She pinched her fingers uneasily as if a gust of wind could blow her over.

“Grandma, since you’ve said so, then I was in the wrong! If I knew this would happen, I wouldn’t have come. The security guards didn’t stop me. I was late. I’m sorry, everyone!”

Old Madam Qiao’s expression softened a little. “At least you’re sensible! You shameless thing!”

Not long after, a group of students gathered together and muttered while glancing at Old Madam Qiao from time to time.

“Madam Qiao is too much. It’s obvious that Qiao Xi was stopped by the security guards, which is why she’s late. She didn’t do it on purpose, yet she’s still talking about her like this.”

“Why is Qiao Rou pretending to be aggrieved? Qiao Xi is clearly the innocent one. If Xue Yi hadn’t said anything, I would really have misunderstood Qiao Xi!”

Xu Mei had sharp ears and heard the crowd’s discussion, so she hurriedly interrupted. “It’s good that you’re here, Xi Xi. In order to invite you back, your father specially held a banquet and even got someone to tidy up your room. He wanted to give you a surprise.”

Qiao Rou also hurriedly said, “Sister, I helped you clean your room. I hope you’ll like it.”

Xu Mei suppressed the anger in her heart and squeezed out a smile. “Xi Xi, although you’re not my biological daughter, I’ve always treated you as my own. You should come back home. Your father and I are very worried about you. Living with those men isn’t a long-term solution.”

Everyone instantly opened their eyes wide and pricked up their ears to listen. Qiao Xi had been living with men recently, and there was more than one?

Xu Mei said earnestly, “I know you’re close to President Qin, but there’s a difference between a man and a woman. It won’t be pleasant if news of this gets out…”

Qiao Zhenguo also said, “Xi Xi, I think so too. Your grandmother and I both want you to come back. You should move back as soon as possible and cut off all contact with those men.”

The scene fell silent again.

Everyone in high society knew about the incident at Fragrance Hotel, but the students of Li City University were not aware of it. Hence, they did not know who President Qin was. Immediately, they imagined a bald and greasy uncle who was providing for Qiao Xi.

Immediately after, Old Madam Qiao spoke coldly and added another stab—

“Qiao Xi! You’re shameless, but our Qiao family still cares about our reputation!”

These words pushed Qiao Xi into the abyss.

The students had surprised expressions as they looked at Qiao Xi in disbelief. Soon, their eyes were filled with disdain.

Qiao Xi took a sip of tea unhurriedly and smiled indifferently. “Sure, I’ll move back.”

Qiao Zhenguo’s expression softened. He did not expect that this little b*tch would not resist this time.

As long as she severed ties with Qin An, Qin An would probably not stand up for her. Then, he would get Rou Rou to curry favor with Qin An. Rou Rou was gentler and more understanding than Qiao Xi. She would definitely capture Qin An’s heart and he would not make things difficult for the Qiao family anymore.

Qiao Zhenguo nodded in satisfaction. “Xi Xi, since you’ve agreed, don’t leave tonight.”

“It’s just that I can’t sleep after changing beds. I think…”

Qiao Xi paused for a moment and looked at Qiao Rou with a smile. “I want to stay in my original room.”

Qiao Rou’s face turned pale as she trembled.

Qiao Zhenguo’s expression darkened as he said impatiently, “Rou Rou is staying in that room now. Don’t look for trouble!”

Xu Mei smiled awkwardly. “Xi Xi, Rou Rou has already gotten used to staying there after so long. You should choose another room.”

Wang Qing had also come to the Qiao family’s house. After quitting university, she had always held resentment against Qiao Xi and finally found a chance to deal with her. Hence, she shouted, “Qiao Xi! You’re really shameless! It’s fine if you’re living with different men, but the Qiao family wants you to stay at home now. However, you even want to snatch Rou Rou’s room? Rou Rou has already cleaned a room for you, but you just can’t accept it! Why are you so petty?!

“If you ask me, Rou Rou shouldn’t have helped you clean your room. You’re really vicious!”

At this moment, a young man who liked Qiao Rou said, “Qiao Xi, you’re Rou Rou’s elder sister. How can you snatch her room? Shouldn’t you give in to your younger sister?”

Qiao Xi raised her eyes indifferently. “I’m snatching her room?”

She curled her lips and sighed helplessly. “But I really want to sleep on the same bed as I did back then. The basement is cold and dark. Aunt Xu said that she has let my younger sister stay in my room.. The Qiao family doesn’t have any other rooms, so I can only stay in the basement. But I’m so scared!”
