Looking at her elegant and otherworldly cousin behind the tea table, her fingers unconsciously tightened around the hem of her dress.
"Sister Qingwan." Qiao Xi's voice was a little hoarse.
"Sit down." Only then did Song Qingwan look up at her and gesture for the seat opposite her.
"Try this year's new tea."
Qiao Xi sat down as instructed, took the cup of tea, but had no interest in tasting it.
The family gathering, which the main family had invited to include the collateral branches, had just ended. The seemingly caring but actually mocking faces of those relatives were still fresh in her mind. They were all laughing at her, and now she could only hide at home and rely on her parents.
She was so frustrated she was about to go crazy.
Qiao Xi put down her teacup, her voice tinged with resentment: "Sister Qingwan, about what I mentioned to you last time..."
Song Qingwan gently blew on the tea, her tone indifferent: "Hmm, I roughly know that Gu Chengyu has a new celebrity by his side."
"And this time is different. He's very protective of her, and he broke our appointment because of her."
Qiao Xi couldn't wait to speak: "It's that Su Qianqian, an orphan girl who appeared out of nowhere, and I don't know what tricks she used to bewitch him."
"Sister Lin Shu and I didn't do anything, and suddenly we fell into her trap!"
She became more and more agitated as she spoke, leaning forward: "Sister Qingwan, you're different from us. You're a legitimate young lady from the Song family. In terms of talent, looks, and family background, how are you inferior to that bitch? As long as you're willing to take action..."
"Qiao Xi," Song Qingwan interrupted her calmly, her voice still gentle, "Watch your words."
Qiao Xi suddenly fell silent, realizing she had lost her composure, and quickly lowered her head: "I'm sorry, Sister Qingwan, I just hated it too much."
Song Qingwan put down her teacup.
“Hate solves nothing.” She said calmly.
"Gu Chengyu's whereabouts are beyond our ability to investigate."
"However, it is quite easy to keep track of the public schedules and movements of a minor celebrity with some fame."
Song Qingwan looked at her and continued, "You don't need to worry about this."
"Stay home and behave yourself. Don't cause any more trouble."
"Don't inquire too much about what's happening outside."
Qiao Xi nodded vigorously, "I know! I know!"
She got up and left, and the tea room returned to silence.
Song Qingwan sat alone, lost in thought.
She didn't care what Gu Chengyu was like; all that admiration was just an act for outsiders.
However, the position of the young mistress of the Gu family can only belong to her.
Su Qianqian, she had already investigated her, and she was a woman who was beyond her expectations.
She is different from people like Lin Shu and Qiao Xi, and also different from spoiled and carefree young ladies like Shen Nian'an.
Even when she saw Su Qianqian's eyes facing the camera, she was momentarily dazed.
No matter how innocent she is, nothing can stand in her way.
Song Qingwan closed her eyes, making up her mind. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
