Chapter 58: Unknown
The woman next to Jiang Xueyao was insulting Li Qingqing with a vicious look on her face.
Miss Jiang? The person before him was actually Miss Jiang? She was Mr. Jiang's granddaughter, the most powerful lady in Haicheng?
Li Qingqing suddenly felt a chill on her back. She had accidentally soiled Miss Jiang's dress. It was over. How could such a bad thing happen to her?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, I didn't mean to do that. How about I wash it for you?" Li Qingqing began to apologize to the person in front of her.
Before Jiang Xueyao could say anything, the woman next to her started to yell at her again.
"Wash? Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Do you know what kind of clothes Miss Jiang is wearing? Do you want to wash them?"
The woman's loud voice attracted the attention of some people around her, and the crowd began to slowly gather here, everyone seemed to be looking forward to a good show.
Seeing more and more people approaching this side, Li Qingqing became more panicked. It was the first time she faced such a scene.
Seeing the other person's contemptuous look, Li Qingqing's palms were already soaked. She had heard that some rich people's clothes could not be washed casually, so she thought about it and looked at Jiang Xueyao and said, "Then I'll take it to you for dry cleaning? Is that okay with you?"
This time, before the woman next to Jiang Xueyao could say anything, laughter broke out from the crowd.
"Dry cleaning? Hahaha, this woman really doesn't know that Miss Jiang's dress is custom-made, right?"
"Yes, yes, it's obvious that this woman has never seen such a scene before. I don't know how she got in."
"Look at how poor she is just now, just by looking at how she took so many desserts at once. She looks like a starving ghost reincarnated."
Li Qingqing listened to the unbearable discussions in the crowd, and the tips of her ears became redder and redder, and her look of shame could no longer be concealed.
Washing it didn't work, and neither did dry cleaning. So what else could she do? A poor kid like her couldn't think of a better solution.
Seeing people watching, Jiang Xueyao immediately put on a hypocritical smile and looked down at her condescendingly, but there was still unconcealable contempt in her eyes.
She glanced at Li Qingqing from head to toe and found that she was wearing only the most basic dress. At first glance, she looked like the mistress of some small boss who had come to join in the fun. Since she had offended Jiang Xueyao today, she was determined to teach her a lesson.
"What's your name? Who did you come with?" Jiang Xueyao spoke slowly.
Looking at the sudden smile on the face of the rich lady opposite, Li Qingqing did not feel a trace of kindness, but instead felt a suffocating feeling as if someone was holding her throat.
But in the final analysis, this matter is all my own fault for being careless, and it is normal for others to be angry.
She clenched her fists tightly and tried to appear calm. "My name is Li Qingqing."
Li Qingqing did not tell Jiang Xueyao who she came with because she was afraid that she might make a mistake accidentally and cause trouble for Mu Xingyi.
"Li Qingqing?"
Jiang Xueyao silently repeated the name, her eyes quickly turned around, and she found that she had never heard of this name before.
Jiang Xueyao knew a little about most of the business partners who had dealings with the Jiang family, but she had never heard of the name Li Qingqing, so now she was even more certain that this poor-looking woman in front of her should not have any backing.
She snorted coldly, the corners of her mouth slowly moved downwards, her eyes became fierce, and she said bluntly: "My dress is not expensive, only 3 million. Pay me back, Miss Li."
Three million?! Li Qingqing trembled and nearly fell. Unaccustomed to high heels, she had to rely on her hands to support herself on the table.
3 million? She only earned 1 million by selling her body for a year. How many years would it take her to pay back 3 million?
For a moment, Li Qingqing felt like the sky was falling. She was even a little confused as to whether Miss Jiang in front of her was deliberately making things difficult for her, or whether she had to pay the 3 million today.
At this time, someone in the crowd was also making a fuss: "Hurry up and pay the money. Tonight is Mr. Jiang's 70th birthday. It's not something that can be solved with 3 million yuan to delay Miss Jiang's filial piety."
"Look at the dress she's wearing. It's not worth much. I don't think she can come up with the 3 million tonight."
"If you can't get it out, let her lick it clean for Miss Jiang, haha."
"Who is Miss Jiang? Can she lick me whenever she wants?"
The crowd sneered and exuded hostility. Not even one person spoke up for Li Qingqing.
What they knew was that Li Qingqing had soiled Jiang Xueyao's clothes, and if they didn't know, they would have thought that she had committed some unforgivable sin. A huge feeling of humiliation instantly filled Li Qingqing's heart.
At this moment, her hands that were supporting the table were shaking slightly. Like a sheep that had strayed into a pack of wolves, she was left with only fear and confusion. Tears could not help but well up in her eyes. She really wanted someone to jump out and help her.
She searched the crowd frantically for Mu Xingyi, hoping he would show up quickly to help her out.
In a trance, she seemed to see a pair of familiar eyes behind Jiang Xueyao.
Those eyes were as dark as a pool, and they were clearly looking at her at this moment. The fire of hope instantly ignited in Li Qingqing's eyes.
It was Lu Yan! Lu Yan was actually here too! Li Qingqing felt like a drowning person grabbing at a straw. She didn't even have time to think about why Lu Yan was here.
She looked at him with earnest eyes, hoping that he could understand the message in her eyes.
Lu Yan should help her, right? Li Qingqing prayed silently in her heart.
He said that she was his woman now and he would take care of her affairs.
Jiang Xueyao looked back in the direction of her expectant gaze and found that Lu Yan was looking at them with a stern expression.
She temporarily left Li Qingqing behind, turned around and walked forward, holding Lu Yan's arm affectionately, "A Yan, why are you here?"
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Xueyao's arm that was clinging to his arm, but did not shake it off. He just let her hold him intimately.
Ah Yan? Li Qingqing's eyes widened instantly. Lu Yan and Miss Jiang also knew each other?
But she soon figured it out. They were all nobles from Hai City, so it was not surprising that they knew each other. But why did they behave so intimately?
"What are you doing?" Lu Yan asked Jiang Xueyao in a deep voice.
Jiang Xueyao took his arm and said coquettishly, "Miss Li accidentally stained my dress. This is the dress I specially customized for my grandfather's 70th birthday. What do you think we should do?"
After saying that, she looked at Li Qingqing's hopeful eyes again and added, "Ayan, do you know this Miss Li? She seems to be looking at you."
Lu Yan looked at the flustered girl in front of him and was silent for a long time. Finally, he said coldly: "I don't know her."
In an instant, Li Qingqing felt as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over her from head to toe, her whole body was icy, biting and cold.
