Chapter 242 Qiao Xi, Cut the Cake with Me

Xu Xingluo's charming voice rang out from the loudspeakers around: "Qiao Xi, thank you for saving my second uncle! There were many misunderstandings between us before, and I hope we can put aside our grudges today.

I would like to invite you to cut this cake with me."

Xu Xingluo specifically mentioned Qiao Xi, and many eyes fell on her.

Most people in Haicheng knew that Xu Xingluo and Huo Xingzhou were childhood sweethearts and were almost engaged.

She and Qiao Xi were former rivals in love, but today Xu Xingluo decided to get engaged to Xiang Huai, which means that the past is now a thing of the past.

Xu Xingluo emphasized again: "Qiao Xi, don't you want to shake hands with me and make peace?"

She looked weak and kind.

Especially sincere.

Some of the talkative guests said, "Ms. Xu invited you to cut the cake to give her face. Miss Qiao, don't you want to give face to the Liu and Xu families?"

They were talking without any hesitation: "The Huo family is so prosperous that even Xu Xingluo wants to please a village girl."

"What country girl? I am the disciple of the national doctor Cheng Han!"

"Cheng Han has become a thing of the past. Lu Bannong has the final say in the field of traditional Chinese medicine now! Apart from a name and residual prestige, what else does Cheng Han have? In order to please Huo Xingzhou, don't flatter his wife."

There are a few people who disdain to regret their humble origins, and a country girl actually climbs over their heads.

Huo Xingzhou's eyebrows were indifferent, but there was a strong coldness in his eyes.

Qiao Xi comforted him softly, "Mr. Huo, don't worry."

Xu Xingluo made such a request under such circumstances, obviously intending to make it impossible for her to refuse.

If she refuses, it means she is ignorant and doesn't give face.

Isn't it just cutting a cake?

"I'll accompany you." The man stood up slowly and walked towards the crowd with her.

The crowd formed a lane, and in the middle was a specially customized seven-layer cake of a ballet girl. Xu Xingluo and Xiang Huai stood together, looking at Qiao Xi with a smile.

They were surrounded by the Xu and Liu families.

They really thought Xu Xingluo had repented and become sensible.

"Qiao Xi." Xu Xingluo took the microphone and pretended, "The previous car accident left me with a serious psychological barrier.

After returning to China, I found it hard to accept your marriage to Brother Xingzhou, so I did some extreme things. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me. "

News spreads quickly in Haicheng's upper class society, and they all know about the stupid things Xu Xingluo has done.

Xu Xingluo also knew that he couldn't hide it, so he might as well admit it openly!

Who hasn't done stupid things when they were young?

"Tian Tian, ​​please help me pass the cake knife to Qiao Xi." Xu Xingluo said softly.

Tian Tian agreed with a smile and handed the cake knife to Qiao Xi. She naively thought that the two of them could shake hands and make peace.

Xu Xingluo curled the corners of her mouth and stepped on Tian Tian's skirt with her high heels without making a sound.

Tian Tian screamed and fell forward.

Qiao Xi was already alert and dodged quickly. Huo Xingzhou held her in his arms and pushed Tian Tian to the other side, causing her to knock over the cake uncontrollably.

The cream splashed and she was covered in it.

Xu Xingluo's body was inevitably splashed with cream.

"ah!"

Tian Tian screamed and scraped the cream off her body.

"Tian Tian, ​​why are you so careless? Are you okay?" Xu Xingluo asked in pretended worry, "Xiang Huai, take Tian Tian to my dressing room to change into a dress. Oh, my...the cake is ruined."

She was a great actress, and many people thought it was an accident and tried to comfort her.

Only Qiao Xi looked at her and felt that it was very fake.

"The cake has flipped over." Qiao Xi said with a faint smile on her pretty face, "It's unlucky that the birthday star didn't get to eat the cake."

Young Master Sun chimed in, "Yes! The birthday star must eat cake!"

Hearing this, Qiao Xi bent down, dipped her fingers into a large lump of butter on the ground, smeared it all over Xu Xingluo's face, and said, "This is perfect. Miss Xu, is it sweet?"

Xu Xingluo couldn't vomit or eat.

Her face was covered with cream and she stared at Qiao Xi.

Liu Huimin took a wet towel and gently wiped her face. She looked at Qiao Xi with a warning and said, "Miss Qiao, young people should not go too far when joking. We, Xingluo, are the protagonists, and no one can use any tricks on us."

Qiao Xi took Huo Xingzhou's hand and said calmly, "You are right. Those who use tricks will suffer the consequences."

Her attitude hardened a lot.

I used to be at a loss when faced with such a situation, but now I know what I can give in and what I cannot give in.

When someone bullies you, you have to fight back!

Young Master Sun also said, "We young people just play cake wars! Aunt Liu, you are too old to keep up with the trend! This is not an exaggerated joke, we didn't even press Xu Xingluo into the cake!"

Qiao Xi glanced at the mother and daughter with a mocking look, and said lightly: "Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom. Mr. Huo, please wait for me."

"Okay." Huo Xingzhou looked calm.

Qiao Xi just left.

Xu Xingluo looked at everyone with red eyes and said, "I'm sorry for making fun of you all. The cake is very sweet. Don't have any opinions about Qiao Xi. She was just joking with me. I'm going to the bathroom to fix my makeup. Excuse me."

Huo Xingzhou's eyes flashed, and he signaled Lao Chen to follow.

The protagonist left, and Xu Guangyao invited everyone to eat and drink, telling them not to take the children's play seriously.

In the restroom.

Qiao Xi washed the sticky cream off her hands.

Xu Xingluo pushed the door open and her sweet smile immediately disappeared and turned cold.

"Qiao Xi, did you deliberately smear cream on my face? Aren't you just jealous that I look better than you today?" Xu Xingluo walked to the sink and automatically sensed the water.

She spoke in a nasty tone as she slowly scrubbed the cream off her body.

"What about you?" Qiao Xi dried her hands and turned to look at her. "You invited me to cut the cake so that I could knock it over, right? If I did what you wanted, I would be as embarrassed as Tian Tian."

He was covered in cream and was laughed at by the guests.

Moreover, because of the contrast with Xu Xingluo's glamorous appearance, he was mocked by the guests for being not as good as Xu Xingluo and not worthy of Huo Xingzhou.

She is a country girl who is not presentable.

Qiao Xi saw through her thoughts clearly, Xu Xingluo was simply targeting her.

"Humph." Xu Xingluo snorted coldly, "I didn't expect you to become so smart."

"Smarter than you. Next time you apologize, continue to serve me tea and water instead of cutting the cake." Qiao Xi retorted, her eyes glancing at Xu Xingluo's empty neck.

"you……"

The meal at Jinling Hotel was a humiliation that Xu Xingluo would never forget.

Qiao Xi picked up the bathroom bag, walked around her and walked out slowly. She paused and suddenly turned around to ask Xu Xingluo: "Do you have any more clever tricks?"

Xu Xingluo was so angry that his cheeks turned red: "Qiao Xi, just wait!"

She is going to teach this country girl a lesson!

Qiao Xi walked into the corridor, and Old Chen was waiting outside. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her come out safely: "Young Madam, are you okay?"

"It's OK."

Qiao Xi shook her head. This birthday party was quite boring.

If Xu Xingluo didn't have the protection of his family, he would have been taken care of long ago.

A waiter came over with a tray and bumped into Qiao Xi accidentally. Qiao Xi took a step away, but Lao Chen's eyes were not right.

After he left, Old Chen said sternly, "Madam, he did something."

"What tricks? Is it this?" Qiao Xi curled her lips, her beautiful almond eyes full of cunning.

She took something out of her bag and put it in Lao Chen's hand.

It was a precious sapphire necklace, the one Xu Xingluo wore around her neck!

Old Chen gave a thumbs up.

Qiao Xi said with a smile in her eyes: "I noticed something was wrong in the bathroom. Today is Xu Xingluo's birthday party, I am on guard!"

“You’re amazing.”

"Come on, let's continue watching this play. Please return the things to their original owners in secret."

Qiao Xi walked forward in her high heels, her figure swaying.

Old Chen vaguely saw the young master's strategic planning in her. Who would have thought that a few months ago this girl couldn't even wear high heels steadily.
