Chapter 408: Strong outside and infatuated inside male protagonist x beautiful and cruel reborn female protagonist 2
Xie Anhuai, a cold-hearted person to others, actually had tears in his eyes because of what Qiao Jinjin said.
"Keep your word"
Aunt Qiao nodded and buried her head in Xie Anhuai's arms. She smelled the faint fragrance of Longyan and felt at ease.
Xiangmanlou is the largest restaurant in the capital. Everyone who comes here is either rich or noble. Without some strength and money, it is impossible to get in here.
Qiao Yurou and Wang Jingxing agreed to meet in private room number 8 here.
"Brother Jingxing, Rou'er is being bullied to death"
Wang Jingxing was quite handsome, but of average height. Seeing Qiao Yurou looking so pitiful, he hugged her in his arms out of pity.
"Who bullied Sister Rouer? Tell me, I want to help you vent your anger."
Qiao Yurou cried and said coquettishly, "Who else could it be? It's just Aunt Qiao."
"I went to apologize to her yesterday, but she actually gave me the cold shoulder. I even knelt down before her, what else did she want?"
Wang Jingxing narrowed his eyes and said, "That idiot, Rou'er, don't be angry. In another month, she and I will be married. Once we are married, you can do whatever you want to her."
"Really?" Qiao Yurou's eyes lit up and she said, "Isn't she aloof? Doesn't she think she is beautiful? I want to make her a slut that everyone can bully on her wedding night."
"But...Brother Jingxing, will we be discovered if we treat her like this?"
Wang Jingxing was very confident in his heart, and he patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, sister Rou'er, His Royal Highness Prince Cheng thinks highly of me now. As long as I curry favor with His Royal Highness Prince Cheng, even if someone knows how I treat Aunt Qiao, who dares to say anything? They can't interfere with my family affairs, right?"
The people in Room No. 9 next door heard the conversation between the two.
An Yi and An Er looked at their master who was full of murderous intent, and mourned for the two people next door for a moment. They didn't even bother to lower their voices in broad daylight. I wonder if there is anyone next door...
Aunt Qiao patted Xie Anhuai's hand and soothed him, "Ah Huai, don't get angry with people unnecessarily. Be careful not to get angry and hurt yourself."
Xie Anhuai suppressed his anger and forced himself to speak softly. "They actually wanted to plot against Qiao Er. They are really courting death."
Jinjin Qiao knew very well that Xie Anhuai wanted to kill Wang Jingxing and Qiao Yurou right now, but she couldn't let these two people die so easily. She wanted Wang Jingxing and Qiao Yurou to be despised by everyone.
"Ah Huai, don't let them die so easily. It would be too easy for them to die like this."
Xie Anhuai respected Qiao Jinjin's decision and said to An Yi behind him, "When Wang Jingxing comes to his own, I will teach him a lesson. As for Qiao Yurou..."
"Ah Huai," Qiao Jinjin interrupted Xie Anhuai, "Don't worry, Wang Jingxing can teach him a lesson, but today's show is not over yet, and Qiao Yurou will experience the feeling of having her reputation ruined soon."
"An Er, help me"
An Er immediately stood up straight and said, "Please give me your orders, Madam."
Xie Anhuai gave An Er an appreciative look. This was a good title and he liked it.
"You should try to get more people here later. Those two people next door are going to make love."
An Er's eyes lit up. He knew this job. He just wanted as many people as possible to see it... "Madam, rest assured. I promise to do it well."
Qiao Er didn't reject this title, so does that prove that she is sincere to him...
"Qiao'er, I don't know what happened to you that made you change your attitude towards me overnight, but I take it seriously. You must not lie to me."
Jinjin Qiao was filled with guilt. She had rejected Xie Anhuai too many times, which led to him feeling so insecure now.
"Ah Huai, after today I can go and cancel the engagement"
"But if I cancel the engagement, my reputation will definitely be affected. Will the emperor still agree to let me marry you then?"
Xie Anhuai was shy for once...
An Yi and An Er looked at each other and thought of the method their master had come up with to avoid the marriage granted by the emperor...
"Madam, don't worry. The prince has consulted Master Qingyun for fortune-telling. He can only marry you in this life. If he marries someone else, there will be a bloody disaster."
Qiao Jinjin's eyes widened in surprise. "Is this true? Is this what you calculated?"
Xie Anhuai coughed awkwardly and said, "Qingyun and I have some friendship. This gossip is of course not true. I just want to let my father hear it."
"Because Qiao'er and Wang Jingxing are engaged, father has always been very resistant. But if Qiao'er breaks off the engagement, father will not have so many reasons to refuse."
Jinjin Qiao felt a little upset... She didn't expect Xie Anhuai had done so many things behind her back.
Listening to the noise next door, Qiao Jinjin suppressed her thoughts and said, "An Er, go find someone. They will be there in a quarter of an hour."
Jinjin Qiao will not show up. She cannot let Wang Jingxing and Qiao Yurou find out that she was the one who plotted against them.

"Rebellious girl, kneel down before me"
Prime Minister Qiao's face turned ashen with anger. He held a whip in his hand and started beating Qiao Yurou.
Qiao Yurou screamed in pain from being beaten.
Aunt Liu was so distressed that she rushed over and held Qiao Yurou in her arms, "Master, stop hitting her. Do you want to beat Rouer to death? She is your daughter."
Prime Minister Qiao's chest was heaving as he gasped. He pointed at Qiao Yurou and cursed, "I wish I could beat her to death. Look at what she did. She has made me lose face."
Aunt Liu looked at Prime Minister Qiao pitifully and said, "My Lord, now we can only let Rou'er marry Wang Jing."
Prime Minister Qiao threw away the whip in his hand and said angrily, "That's Qiao'er's fiancé. As your sister, you are having an affair with your brother-in-law. What can you let Qiao'er do?"
Aunt Liu gritted her teeth, stared at the ground fiercely, but her voice was very gentle, "Master, I know you love the eldest lady, but Rou'er is also your daughter."
"Now Rou'er's reputation is ruined. If Rou'er doesn't marry Wang Jingxing, how will she live?"
Prime Minister Qiao seemed to have aged several years in an instant. He sighed and said, "Forget it. Someone, go and invite the young lady over."
When Aunt Qiao walked into Fengling Courtyard, she saw Aunt Liu kneeling on the ground and Qiao Yurou in her arms. She raised her eyebrows and a worried expression appeared on her face.
“Greetings to Father”
"Ouch, what's going on?"
When Prime Minister Qiao saw Aunt Qiao, he waved his hand at her and said, "Qiao'er, come and sit down."
Jin Jin Qiao sat next to Prime Minister Qiao, observing all the etiquette and rules perfectly, looking calm, except for the occasional look she gave him that was filled with worry.
Prime Minister Qiao was very pleased. A legitimate daughter was still better. There was nothing wrong with the rules. Maybe canceling the engagement was a good choice, but would Qiaoer be willing? After all, Qiaoer liked Wang Jingxing very much.
Prime Minister Qiao hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Qiao'er, do you have to marry Wang Jingxing?"
