Chapter 310: The Idiot Who Doesn’t Know How to Live or Die

"Miss Qiao, why are you so careless? You walk without paying attention and bump into me! Now your clothes are dirty."

Ye Zhimeng held a red wine glass and looked at her with a smile.

She directly filed a complaint and shirked responsibility.

Let others mistakenly think that Qiao Xi brought this upon herself.

"Miss Qiao, I just came back from abroad and heard a lot of rumors about you. I heard that you don't come from a good family and grew up in the countryside. You must rarely attend such occasions, so it's no wonder you made a fool of yourself. Fortunately, I am generous and don't make a fuss with you."

Ye Zhimeng is very good at playing this kind of trick.

Qiao Xi took out a tissue from her bag and wiped the wine stains off her body, but the red wine stains were difficult to wipe off.

The new cheongsam is covered with spots, which looks ugly.

She raised her eyes and looked at Ye Zhimeng and said, "I've heard something about you, too. You and Xu Xingluo are good sisters. If she goes to jail, you want to go in and accompany her, right?"

Ye Zhimeng's face sank. "As expected, you are sharp-tongued and have no manners."

"More refined than you."

Qiao Xi thought of what Du Ya said and didn't want to let it go.

She has someone to back her up.

"The auction venue has surveillance cameras. I can tell at a glance whether I bumped into you or you deliberately splashed the drink all over me."

"What a joke! Why would we show you the Ye family's surveillance? Who do you think you are?"

As Ye Zhimeng finished speaking, a whole glass of red wine was poured all over her face.

"Who do you think Qiao Xi is? Who do you think you are?"

Liu Huimin witnessed everything as soon as she entered the room. She quickly stepped forward, pulled Qiao Xi to her side, and poured a glass of wine for Ye Zhimeng. But that was not enough, she grabbed the cream cake from the tray of a passing waiter and threw it at Ye Zhimeng's face.

How she wanted to announce to the world that Qiao Xi was her biological daughter.

Ye Zhimeng was stunned for several seconds: "Aunt Liu..."

Liu Huimin responded coldly: "You are not worthy of the title of Miss Ye! You are just an adopted poor kid, but you know how to bully others by taking advantage of your power. Tell me, who do you think you are..."

Ye Zhimeng was a little panicked. This was Xu Xiuyuan's mother, her future mother-in-law.

"Aunt Liu, it wasn't me. Qiao Xi bumped into me herself..."

"I saw it with my own eyes, and you are still lying!"

Liu Huimin's commotion attracted many people to watch. Du Ya heard the noise and hurried to Qiao Xi's side. Seeing the dirt on her body, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Ye Zhimeng poured wine for me." Qiao Xi said softly.

Du Ya's face turned pale, "Then I will ask the Ye family for an explanation today."

Ye Zhimeng didn't expect so many people to support a country girl. She thought Qiao Xi would suffer this humiliation. Country girls are inferior and dare not speak out.

She wanted to cry but had no tears.

It would be fine if Du Yan helped Qiao Xi, but why did she help Liu Huimin too?

Xingluo said before that Liu Huimin disliked Qiao Xi!

Some of the guests also had such doubts.

"What's going on with Liu Huimin?"

"Has she been provoked? I heard that she and Mrs. Huo were at loggerheads. The Xu family has been in trouble recently, so it's inevitable that the Huo family will take advantage of the situation. Did she take the wrong medicine?"

Liu Huimin felt bitter, what a pity!

Does a mother need a reason to protect her own daughter?

But when she heard Ye Zhimeng calling her a "country girl" all the time, she couldn't refute it!

The Huo family warned the Liu family that Qiao Xi must not reveal a single word about her background unless she agreed.

The crowd gathered around the place, and Mrs. Ye came over with an unhappy look on her face, accompanied by a pretty and quiet girl.

"Meng Meng, apologize to Dr. Qiao!"

Mrs. Ye shouted coldly, "It seems that I shouldn't have let you, a troublemaker, return to China, lest you cause trouble. It seems that you have turned a deaf ear to my words, or do you think you are a member of the Ye family for your whole life?"

Ye Zhimeng was panicked and tears started falling.

She is not a member of the Ye family and can be kicked out of the house at any time.

Ye Zhimeng's face turned pale and she said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Mrs. Ye looked unhappy: "Who are you apologizing to? Can't you even explain yourself clearly?"

Ye Zhimeng gritted her teeth and said in a crying voice, "I'm sorry, Miss Qiao."

Qiao Xi said calmly, "Next time, don't walk without paying attention. If necessary, you can go to the eye department of Haicheng Hospital for a check-up. Let's see whether it's ungrateful or cataracts."

Ye Zhimeng's face turned pale and blue due to humiliation, and she pinched her palms hard.

Mrs. Ye was very protective of Qiao Xi: "Dr. Qiao is my guest of honor. She once saved Xiao Lei. I don't allow you to be disrespectful to her. If I hear you bullying others in the future, you will no longer be a member of my Ye family."

The graceful girl standing beside her took her hand and comforted her softly, "Cousin, anger is harmful to your health. You are in poor health and need long-term care. I just wrote you a prescription. Mengmeng, she must know she is wrong."

Mrs. Ye took a deep breath and calmed herself down: "This won't happen again."

Ye Zhimeng looked at her gratefully.

The young woman walked up to Qiao Xi, stretched out her hand and said with a smile, "Hello, Miss Qiao. I have heard of your great name for a long time."

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and looked at her.

"Miss Qiao? Are you angry with me too?" The woman kept her hands out and didn't feel embarrassed.

Many guests looked at Qiao Xi, as if they thought she was not generous enough.

Qiao Xi gave her a formal smile, stretched out her hand and shook hands with her in a friendly manner.

There was a stinging pain in the palm of my hand.

She said, "My name is Xiang Mingzhu, and Xiang Huai is my brother. After hearing that he confessed to the arson, the Xiang family has decided not to interfere in his affairs and will let him be dealt with according to the law. We are very sorry for your grandmother's death."

To the family again!

The woman in front of me said sorry, but her words were not sincere and even had a hint of provocation.

She didn't come here to apologize!

Xiang Mingzhu had a polite and formal smile on her face.

"Ms. Qiao, I heard that you signed up for the Chinese Medicine Festival Needle Trial Competition. What a coincidence! I am also a descendant of the Imperial Capital Lu family acupuncture. I am looking forward to our duel."

As soon as the words fell, Liu Huimin beside Qiao Xi turned pale.

Lu's acupuncture is famous for the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, and there are many successors, but the only direct descendant is Lu Yingxue.

Xiang Mingzhu in front of her probably was just an ordinary disciple, so she wanted to call Lu Yingxue "cousin".

The fact that Lu Bannong and Cheng Han were at odds with each other was well known in the Chinese medicine community.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes and looked at her, so she and Xiang Mingzhu in front of her were rivals!

When Xiang Mingzhu let go of her hand, Qiao Xi grabbed her hand in time and slowly forced her fingers into a fist.

Xiang Mingzhu frowned in pain, and tried to shrink her brows but couldn't.

"Ms. Xiang, Chinese medicine does not harm people, so we are not opponents."

Xiang Mingzhu couldn't hold back her smile: "It seems that the disciple of the national doctor Cheng Han doesn't think highly of me."

Qiao Xi's eyelashes flickered slightly, "People who underestimate themselves are the ones who look down on themselves."

She was certain that the person in box number six with Ye Zhimeng was Xiang Mingzhu.

Du Ya held Qiao Xi's hand and said, "Mrs. Ye, we'll take our leave now. We'll continue another day. Don't always keep this troublemaker with you, lest he bring harm to the Ye family someday."

"Slow down."

Mrs. Ye turned around and glared at Ye Zhimeng.

Only then did Qiao Xi let go of Xiang Mingzhu's hand and followed Du Ya out of the banquet hall.

After leaving, her face turned slightly pale, and she lowered her eyes and spread out her palms.
