Chapter 971 Too Charming
Wang Yu gave Qin Fei a reproachful look, "She should have come earlier. This child is so ignorant, she doesn't even listen to me."
Grandpa Qin said, "It's normal for children to have their own ideas as they grow up. Don't be too anxious. Tell me slowly."
Qin Fei stood next to Wang Yu for a while, then started to lose patience.
Unfortunately, Wang Yu kept talking to Grandpa Qin, and she didn't even have a chance to interject.
Qin Ce received a phone call midway through and has not returned.
Qiao Xing sat quietly by the bed, listening to Wang Yu and Grandpa Qin chat.
Wang Yu would occasionally mention her, but she would just smile in response.
Throughout this process, Qiao Xing could clearly feel that Qin Fei's eyes were fixed on her.
She knew why, so she ignored Qin Fei.
But Qin Fei kept glaring at her, which made her uncomfortable, so she made an excuse to pick up the kettle and go get some water.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yu said to Qin Fei, who was standing next to her, "Your sister-in-law is not feeling well, why don't you go and keep her company?"
Qiao Xing thought to himself, "Well, there's no need for that."
However, she couldn't refuse in front of Grandpa Qin, so she could only let Qin Fei follow her.
The two left the ward and walked all the way to the hot water room, where Qin Fei finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Don't think I don't know what you've been doing!"
Qiao Xing casually fetched water, "What did I do?"
Qin Fei warned her fiercely, "You think you can act recklessly just because Qin Ce is protecting you? Let me tell you, I will absolutely not let what happened last time go so easily!"
Qiao Xing looked helpless. "If you think I've done something wrong, then show me the evidence. If you haven't, please don't try to show off your power in front of me. It's useless to me."
"You!" Qin Fei gritted her teeth in anger.
Qiao Xing, carrying a water bottle, said calmly, "Please move aside, I need to go out."
Qin Fei stood still.
Qiao Xing lost his patience and simply pushed her aside.
Qin Fei was furious. "Qiao Xing, you've gone too far!"
Qiao Xing laughed, "Miss Qin, who do you think is more outrageous, you or me?"
If it weren't for the fact that she was a member of the Qin family, and that she was afraid she might cause trouble that would be bad for Grandpa Qin.
Ever since she discovered that she had been secretly filming him, Qiao Xing was not going to let the matter go so easily.
Qiao Xing believed she had done more than enough for Qin Fei, and she wouldn't hold it against her, but only if Qin Fei had the self-awareness to know better.
Qin Fei felt guilty under Qiao Xing's gaze, and her arrogance vanished by more than half.
But she was still very unconvinced, "Just wait, you'll all be kicked out of the Qin family sooner or later!"
Qiao Xing nodded, "I'll wait."
She ignored Qin Fei and turned to leave, but after taking only two steps, she ran into Qin Ce and Xiao Xiao walking side by side.
The two were talking about something, but Qiao Xing noticed that Xiao Xiao had an innocent smile on her face, and her ponytail swayed as she walked, radiating youthful energy.
Suddenly, someone pushing a stroller hurriedly walked past Xiaoxiao and accidentally bumped into her.
Xiao Xiao lost her footing and almost fell.
Qin Ce hadn't intended to help her up, because he clearly saw the stroller brush past Xiao Xiao without touching her at all, let alone knocking her down.
But who knew that the next second, the woman would fall right into him.
Qin Ce immediately frowned, especially when he smelled that strange scent on her, he took two steps back in disgust.
The smell was probably from shower gel, but Qin Ce wasn't used to it; it was pungent and suffocating.
Qiao Xing watched this scene. If it were a normal woman, seeing her husband so close to another woman, she would inevitably misunderstand, no matter what the reason.
But Qiao Xing didn't, because Xiao Xiao's acting was too fake.
Qiao Xing felt that if even she could see it, there was no way Qin Ce couldn't have missed it.
Of course, this was just Qiao Xing's own idea.
Qin Fei, who also witnessed the entire process, naturally wouldn't think as simply as Qiao Xing.
She walked up to Qiao Xing and said sarcastically, "See? Don't think you're so important to Qin Ce. With your status and family background, if he can be interested in you, he can be interested in others too. I've already told you to face reality and not take yourself too seriously."
Qiao Xing listened to the chattering around her and impatiently pursed her lips.
When will this person ever stop?
Qiao Xing took a deep breath, turned her head, and said to Qin Fei with a half-smile, "Don't worry, even if I leave the Qin family, there will be a second, a third Qiao Xing entering the Qin family. If you can't guarantee that Qin Ce will stay single for life, then you'd better accept it and stop idly giving advice all day."
Qin Fei could never win a verbal argument against Qiao Xing.
Because all Qin Fei talked about was using Qiao Xing's past to attack her.
However, Qiao Xing was already immune to this, or rather, she never cared about what others said about her family's poor financial situation.
Her family background was indeed quite ordinary, and Qiao Xing never denied it, so no matter how Qin Fei used this to belittle her, she would not feel inferior at all.
She's not the kind of person who would constantly drain herself because of something someone else said.
What's more, those words came from the mouth of Qin Fei, who doesn't have much of an IQ.
Qin Fei couldn't argue with Qiao Xing, so she could only stomp her feet in anger.
However, she took a closer look at the girl standing in front of Qin Ce.
They discovered that this girl, in terms of appearance and demeanor, seemed to resemble Qiao Xing somewhat.
Qiao Xing walked towards Qin Ce, while Xiao Xiao was apologizing to him for "accidentally bumping into" him.
As soon as she saw Qiao Xing, she quickly greeted her, "Miss Qiao."
Qiao Xing smiled and nodded at her, then asked, "I heard from Qin Ce that you injured your arm yesterday. How are you? Are you feeling better now?"
Xiaoxiao glanced at her arm and said, "It's nothing, it wasn't serious to begin with. Thank you for your concern, Miss Qiao."
"Thank you for yesterday. If you have any needs, please let us know and we will try our best to meet them."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao quickly waved her hand, "No need, Miss Qiao. I am also partly responsible for what happened yesterday. If I had kept a close eye on Grandpa Qin, that wouldn't have happened. I'm already very happy that you and Mr. Qin don't blame me. I don't have any other requests, really!"
Qiao Xing felt that the girl was quite sensible, but thinking about what had just happened, she really couldn't believe that the two of them were the same person.
Is it really because Qin Ce is too charming that even a seemingly sensible and well-behaved girl like Xiao Xiao couldn't help but have those kinds of thoughts?
