Chapter 854 Send Him a Bouquet of Flowers
Qiao Xi held his hand and said, "I will be careful."
"You don't have to be cautious everywhere. You can't guard against thieves all the time. I will ask Lao Chen and the others to strengthen the defenses. You need to relax every day." Huo Xingzhou rubbed her face. Her morning sickness has improved a little recently, but she looks thinner.
Huo Xingzhou felt sorry for her, as she was involved in so many troubles.
Qiao Xi nodded obediently, "Okay."
She looked into his calm eyes and said, "Don't stare at me like that. I still need to try on the dress. Turn away and don't just stare at me."
She would find it very strange.
Huo Xingzhou didn't tease her and turned his body to the side.
Qiao Xi picked up the dress. It was a light blue, conservative, embroidered, new Chinese-style dress. Her face shape and temperament were very suitable for Chinese style, and the dress was also relatively easy to wear.
She can do it alone.
Silk fabric is very skin-friendly and comfortable, and drapes well.
Qiao Xi stroked the fabric with her fingers and curled the corners of her mouth.
There are two buttons on the collar.
She gently undressed and put on the dress.
The zipper of the dress is hidden at the back collar, only opening a little bit and not reaching the waist.
Qiao Xi's hands couldn't reach it, so Huo Xingzhou pinched the zipper and pulled it to the top for her.
Qiao Xi turned around, looked at him, and asked, "Does it look good?"
She lifted her skirt and turned left and right.
The light blue new Chinese-style dress seemed to be rippling with waves, looking very elegant and lively.
Huo Xingzhou nodded: "It looks good."
"This one, then."
"Um."
They wasted no time and paid after confirming the order.
Huo Sijiao also chose one, and was then sent back to the Xie family by Huo Xingzhou.
The couple walked out of the studio and got into the Rolls-Royce. When they passed the flower shop, Qiao Xi called out.
"Pull over, Lao Chen. I have something to do."
"Okay, young lady."
Old Chen didn't ask why, he just parked the car by the side of the road.
Huo Xingzhou turned around and looked at her with a puzzled look.
Qiao Xi said, "You stay in the car, I'll be back soon."
It's so mysterious, I don't know what it's about.
"Let Lao Chen go with you, otherwise I won't be at ease."
"Oh well."
Qiao Xi understood his concerns and took Lao Chen into the flower shop.
She picked out a large bouquet of lavender and wrote a card. Thinking the florist wouldn't be able to deliver to the Pei family's old house, she handed the bouquet to Old Chen.
"Old Chen, can you have the Huo family's bodyguards send them to the Pei family?"
"no problem."
Giving a bouquet of flowers is a small thing.
Just looking at the small card on the bouquet, Lao Chen was a little surprised.
I didn't expect that my young lady had learned some sinister things after following the young master for so long.
Old Chen immediately contacted a bodyguard, handed the bouquet to him, and asked him to deliver it to the Pei family as soon as possible.
The two then got into the car.
Huo Xingzhou glanced at Qiao Xi who was sitting next to him. He had just seen the bouquet of flowers in her hand through the car window, but she quickly handed it to her subordinates.
He asked, "How long are you going to keep this secret from me?"
Qiao Xi smiled ingratiatingly: "It's just a small matter."
"Who are you sending flowers to?" Your favorite?
What does purple lavender represent?
Waiting for love?
As soon as Qiao Xi saw his jealous look, she knew that he must have had some bad intentions.
I quickly explained, "This is for Madam Pei. She said her lucky color is purple. I think lavender is the most suitable, so I'll give it to her."
"Why did you send her flowers?"
"We are destined to be together and have similar aesthetic tastes."
She smiled cunningly, and it was obvious that she had done something bad.
"Tell me, what kind of fate is this?"
This time, Qiao Xi did not hide it.
She told Huo Xingzhou everything that happened in the studio and said, "Those dresses cost the Pei family about seven or eight million. I chose the most expensive ones. The diamonds inlaid on them are not cheap, and some are high-end designs by famous designers. But... the aesthetics don't conform to domestic trends."
Even dresses designed by famous designers may not be suitable for wearing.
What they designed was a concept and what they promoted was a gimmick.
But the Pei family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fell into the trap easily without looking carefully. They bought whatever Qiao Xi and Huo Sijiao liked.
How can this not be a scam?
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his fingers, pinched her cheek and said, "Little mischievous ghost, you used to be very simple and upright."
"Didn't I learn that from you? I've learned a lot of skills by following Mr. Huo."
"Is it me who led you astray?"
"As the company of vermilion becomes red, as the company of ink becomes black."
Huo Xingzhou scratched her chin. "Pei Zheng looks calm, but he's a petty and vindictive person. If he knew about this, he'd be furious."
"Then I feel it's a pity that I didn't see such a scene with my own eyes."
…
The Pei family was indeed shrouded in dark clouds.
The atmosphere is unusual.
Pei Zheng sat on the sofa, staring at the bouquet of lavender and the card in front of him, with a gloomy face and no words.
Pei Gan stood by and even his breathing became lighter.
Brother...you won't be angry to death, right?
Pei Gan's fingers stirred, making small movements. He wanted to call his sister-in-law and mother and tell them not to come back tonight. He would feel better once his brother calmed down, but... As soon as he moved, Pei Zheng's eyes fell on him.
"Where are you going? To tip them off?"
Pei Gan laughed twice: "No, I just went to the bathroom."
"Hold it in."
"oh."
It seems that they can't leave, so they can only fend for themselves.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a car stopping outside the door.
Here we come!
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came in one after another, still cursing Qiao Xi for being cunning.
"Mother-in-law, don't be angry. I have already sent those dresses to the villa and will give them away later. A Zheng will never know about it..." She spent 8.6 million to buy a bunch of useless things, and her heart was bleeding.
Mrs. Pei was furious. "I didn't expect to be fooled by a little girl. They are really good at acting. They set us up and made us spend so much money. When I think about it, I want to slap her a few times."
She had a bad temper to begin with, and had lived a life of luxury and superiority for many years. It had been a long time since she had suffered such a big setback.
Although several million is not a big deal for the Pei family, it is still money!
"Mother-in-law, the engagement party is tomorrow. If they come, we'll get back at them. Don't get yourself hurt by your anger; it's not worth it. Those two little girls can't cause any trouble. This time, we were just careless."
"snort!"
Mrs. Pei snorted coldly, accepting the explanation and admonished, "Don't tell Ah Zheng, he's been in a bad mood lately."
"knew."
When the two of them walked around the entrance and entered, they saw Pei Zheng sitting in the living room.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both looked a little unnatural. I wonder how many people heard what they said just now.
