She opened her mouth, about to change the subject, when she heard Qiao Xi look at Qi Jincheng with a loving tone and say, "It's all thanks to President Qi's teachings."

Qi Jincheng was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Qiao Xi with a 'complex' expression. In his opinion, 'teaching by example' was not so simple, and he did not think that Qiao Xi said it unintentionally.

Seeing her proud little expression, Qi Jincheng still said in a cooperative tone, "Madam, you're too kind."

As a single person, Shao Ruihan was instantly hit with a critical strike of 10,000 points. She didn't even dare to look them in the eye; the scene was truly devastating.

During their conversation, most of the dishes were served, so they ate and chatted, formally exchanging contact information.

Qiao Xi had a vague premonition that although they didn't have much interaction in their previous life, they would definitely meet again in this life, and... she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but the feeling was very strong.

Considering the presence of many people, Qiao Xi escorted Shao Ruihan to the door alone. Shao Ruihan didn't want to disturb them, but she couldn't refuse Qiao Xi's hospitality, so she gladly accepted.

After Shao Ruihan left, Qiao Xi took Qi Jincheng's car keys and got into the car first, then sent Qi Jincheng a message.

Five minutes later, they met up in the car.

With a hearty meal and drinks, Qiao Xi looked around and, seeing that almost no one was around, suggested, "Shall we take a walk before going back?"

There were hardly any people around.

"Okay." Qi Jincheng readily agreed.

The two walked hand in hand like any ordinary young couple, without saying a word, yet their hearts were in perfect harmony.

However, when Qiao Xi looked at Qi Jincheng, she noticed a faint smile on his lips, a smile that hadn't disappeared since he got out of the car.

Qiao Xi suddenly stopped and blinked, deliberately scrutinizing him as she asked, "Ah Jin, you've been laughing since just now. What's making you so happy?"

Qi Jincheng replied without hiding anything, "I'm trying to understand what Xi'er meant by 'teaching by example'."

"Ahem!" Qiao Xi suddenly coughed twice, feigning nonchalance, and said, "Am I wrong?"

Qi Jincheng stood in front of Qiao Xi, cupped her small face in his hands, and said with a look of satisfaction, "Xi'er makes me very proud."

"What are you so proud of?" Qiao Xi pouted, her pronunciation becoming increasingly unclear as his hands pinched her cheeks.

"He helped Xi'er go from last place to first in the entire grade." Qi Jincheng took all the credit without any modesty.

Qiao Xi roughly understood what he meant, and pretended to be serious as she said, "I admit that I was holding back my strength before."

“Isn’t it about ‘leading by example’?” Qi Jincheng lifted her chin again and asked with a raised eyebrow.

Qiao Xi said in a serious tone, "That must be part of the reason."

"But the main reason is that I'm about to change my major. As the wife of the president of Dihua Group, I certainly can't let the president of Dihua Group down, right?"

As she spoke, she winked at Qi Jincheng.

Qi Jincheng didn't care at all, "I don't care about that, but my wife is the last in the whole school..."

He noticed Qiao Xi was a little unhappy halfway through his speech, so he stopped and started praising her instead, "Xi'er is so smart, how could she possibly get last place? I just didn't want to be too high-profile before."

“Yes!” Qiao Xi nodded in agreement.

That evening, Qiao Xi received a message from Shao Ruihan saying that the principal had signed it and she could report to the design department the next day!

Qiao Xi was so excited that she couldn't sleep all night. But as dawn broke, she suddenly felt sleepy.

Fortunately, she didn't have any classes in the morning for jewelry design, so she fell asleep without any worries. But she was soon woken up by the noise from downstairs.

She glanced at the time and saw it was only nine o'clock. She wanted to go back to sleep, but the commotion downstairs was quite loud, so she casually threw on a coat and went down to see what was going on.

As soon as I stepped downstairs, I heard a sharp, questioning voice: "Who are you?"

Qiao Xi looked at the man walking towards her and unconsciously called out his name, "Du Xinyu?"

"You know me?" Du Xinyu gave her a rather unfriendly look, especially noticing her pajamas. He felt inexplicably irritated. "No, who are you? Why are you at my brother's house? Where is my sister-in-law?"

In this life, it was the first time she met Du Xinyu, and they didn't know each other.

Just like in his previous life, Du Xinyu didn't immediately recognize Qiao Xi as his sister-in-law, but instead regarded her as a disreputable woman.

Although I later found out that they didn't get along and were like enemies who couldn't stand each other, and for no reason at all.

The same applies to this life, but Qiao Xi won't let it go like she did in the previous life. As long as he dares to challenge her, she will definitely give him a surprise.

After scrutinizing Qiao Xi for a moment, Du Xinyu began to ask and answer his own question, "You wouldn't happen to be my sister-in-law, would you?"

"Impossible, impossible! You're just a smelly, yellow-haired girl. You're not bad looking, but you lack class!" As he spoke, his eyes unconsciously swept over Qiao Xi's private parts.

Because she was wearing pajamas, she didn't stand out much, but that didn't warrant him saying she 'lacked class'.

Seeing this, Aunt Liu immediately stepped forward to remind Du Xinyu, "Young Master, she..."

However, Qiao Xi stopped her, giving her a look that told her not to interfere.

Aunt Liu understood and stepped aside, but in her heart she was praying for Du Xinyu, praying that he would not displease the lady.

Their wives are not to be trifled with. If the young master finds out that his wife has been 'bullied,' he might just get a beating.

Qiao Xi crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking rather lazy, and teased him, "Did you hide here to avoid blind dates?"

Upon hearing her mention the word 'blind date,' Du Xinyu couldn't help but tense up. "How did you know?"

"I'm your sister-in-law's... maid." Qiao Xi thought it was still early, so she decided to tease him.

“That makes sense.” Du Xinyu speculated without any suspicion. “My brother must have told my sister-in-law about my affair, but how could my sister-in-law tell you something like that?”

The second half of the sentence was full of hostility towards Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi replied casually, "We're just good friends."

As she spoke, Qiao Xi walked to the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

Seeing how casually she acted, as if this were her own home, Du Xinyu knew he absolutely could not tolerate such behavior!

"Hey, hey, hey, who gave you permission to sit down?"

Qiao Xi stretched lazily and said calmly, "Of course you have to sit down to eat breakfast."

At the same time, she winked at Aunt Liu, who immediately went to prepare breakfast for her.

"Don't you, a servant, have any self-awareness?" Du Xinyu angrily reached out to grab her. "Stand up!"
