If I had known earlier, I should have spread the rumor more harshly!
Wouldn't this allow Li Meizhen and Li Shiqi to fight each other?
Thinking of this, Qiao Meiyuan couldn't help but complain to Li Meizhen beside her, "Aren't you supposed to be in school right now? Why did you suddenly come to America to play? And you were so confident in letting just a few of you kids go abroad without an adult by your side! Don't you know that foreign countries aren't safe?"
Qiao Meiyuan was just complaining. After all, both Li Meizhen and Li Shiqi came from wealthy families. As long as their family had money, they could go wherever they wanted and there were no restrictions at all.
What's more, both of them are accompanied by bodyguards when they go out, so their safety is basically guaranteed under normal circumstances.
Moreover, many wealthy families like theirs also have branches of family businesses in the United States.
Just like the Qiao family has a branch of the Qiao Group in New York, USA.
If Qiao Meiyuan or Li Meizhen encounter problems in the United States and need help, they can contact the Qiao family’s branch in the United States for help!
Not to mention that the aristocratic school they attend in Hong Kong is a school of British-style education. Whether it is daily social practice courses or international summer camp activities organized during the holidays, the destinations of most of these activities are basically developed countries such as Japan, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy. The school also encourages them to actively participate in these overseas practical activities in order to improve students' independent ability.
This is not the first time that Li Shiqi and her friends have come to the United States, so it is unreasonable for Qiao Meiyuan to complain like this.
Although Li Meizhen was surprised at her cousin's sudden words, she patiently explained, "It's like this. Li Shiqi is getting engaged to her cousin Yingjie soon. She took some time off to come to the United States to have her engagement dress custom-made here!"
got engaged?!
Li Shiqi and Qiao Yingjie?
Is the Li family going to marry into the Qiao family?
How come she didn't receive any news?
After hearing this, Qiao Meiyuan's face turned even worse!
The branch of the Qiao family that Qiao Meiyuan belongs to is actually just a branch of the Qiao family in Hong Kong. However, the Qiao family has been deeply rooted and developed in Hong Kong together for hundreds of years. Even though most of the family's industries have been divided among the main branch, the entire family is still very united.
For major events like marriage with other families, all family members must be informed.
Even though Qiao Meiyuan was still a child in the eyes of the family elders, and she didn't need to be informed of such a major event as a marriage, Qiao Meiyuan had never heard of this from her parents!
Humph! Ever since Qiao Meiyuan and her family of four immigrated to the United States, they seemed to have severed ties with their family. They had virtually no idea what was happening in Hong Kong!
It’s as if their surname is not Qiao anymore!
Seeing her cousin's face suddenly turn so grim, Li Meizhen seemed to have guessed something and quickly made amends, "My cousin hasn't heard about the marriage plan yet. Perhaps the two families haven't finalized it yet! There are still many details that the elders haven't discussed, so we haven't mentioned it to you far away in the United States. Once the two families have finalized the marriage plan, I will definitely notify you and your family to return to Hong Kong for the engagement ceremony!"
After Li Meizhen finished speaking, Qiao Meiyuan's complexion really looked much better.
After all, she still has to rely on the reputation of the Qiao family to squeeze into the upper circle of Chinese Americans. If people really knew that her branch of the Qiao family had no status at all in the Hong Kong Qiao family, how could she continue to stay in this circle in the future?
That will definitely lead to being ostracized by others!
Qiao Meiyuan certainly doesn't want to fall out of the upper class circle, so he must never let others know the true situation of his family.
but--
It turns out that Li Shiqi is planning a marriage!
Then there is definitely no possibility for her and Liang Mingyu!
Thinking of this, Qiao Meiyuan's unwilling heart suddenly became active!
For Qiao Meiyuan, Li Shiqi has always been the biggest obstacle in her pursuit of Liang Mingyu!
After all, the elders of their two families have been friends since the previous generation, and the friendship between the two families has lasted for decades!
This is something that Qiao Meiyuan cannot compare to!
Qiao Meiyuan was afraid that the elders of the Liang and Li families would suddenly want to make things even better and get them engaged. Wouldn't that be bad?
Fortunately, Li Shiqi's family has taken the initiative to arrange a marriage for her, and the marriage partner is their Qiao family!
That means that even if Li Shiqi wants to cancel the engagement in the future, the elders of their Li family will definitely not agree!
After all, the Qiao family is one of the four major families in Hong Kong, and the Li family can't afford to offend them!
And Liang Mingyu would definitely not offend the Qiao family because of Li Shiqi!
Thinking of this, Qiao Meiyuan already understood clearly in her heart that Li Shiqi could no longer be an obstacle to her!
But so much time has passed since they met, so how come Li Shiqi didn't reveal that she came to the United States to customize her wedding dress?
And she didn't reveal at all that she was about to get engaged!
Could it be that Li Shiqi doesn't want Liang Mingyu to know that she is getting engaged?
Otherwise, why didn't she mention anything about her engagement?
At least she should invite them to come back to Hong Kong to attend her engagement ceremony!
The more Qiao Meiyuan thought about it, the more she felt that this possibility was very high!
If Li Meizhen hadn't accidentally said it, Qiao Meiyuan might not have known the real purpose of Li Shiqi's coming to the United States. She was not here for sightseeing, but to have a custom-made dress for her upcoming engagement ceremony!
