Xu Mei quickly went over to calm her down. “Mom, watch out for your health. Although Xi Xi is a little willful, there are so many people here today. She won’t do such a thing. Moreover, she hasn’t been home for so long. She’ll definitely come back to see you.”
Xue Yi swept a cold glance over at Xu Mei. This mistress was indeed capable. She pretended to persuade the old madam, but in reality, she was saying that Qiao Xi was unfilial, reckless, and willful.
It seemed that Xue Liang was right. The Qiao family was really detestable.
Xue Yi did not say anything else because she knew that Little Six would definitely come and not let this group of people off easily.
After a while, everyone complained loudly.
They could not interfere with the Qiao family’s matters, but Qiao Xi being late meant that she did not take them seriously!
Qiao Zhenguo looked at the time, his eyes filling with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll call and ask if she’s still coming. In order to celebrate her return, I invited so many people over, but she made us wait so long without saying anything!”
Xu Mei had an apologetic look on her face as she bent down to the crowd. “Students, I think Xi Xi won’t be coming anymore. I’m really sorry for taking up so much of your time.”
Qiao Rou pretended to be lonely. Actually, it was a good thing that Qiao Xi did not come. It caused Qiao Xi to have the reputation of being disrespectful to her elders and willful.
Immediately after, she slowly stepped forward and was at a loss. “There must be a reason why my sister isn’t here. Maybe… she’s still unwilling to forgive me. If you want to blame someone… blame me. It’s all my fault. It has nothing to do with my sister!
“I’ve let everyone down. Please forgive me!”
Qiao Rou’s tears fell. Her pitiful appearance made the male students’ hearts ache, so they comforted her softly. “Rou Rou, it’s not your fault.”
“Yeah, it’s clearly Qiao Xi’s fault. What does it have to do with you?”
“Qiao Xi is too much! Does she think we’re monkeys?”
“When we get back to the university, I’ll write a thread and attack her. I’ll let everyone see what kind of person she is! She lets her elders and students wait for her without the intention of appearing—”
“Dad, I’m sorry I’m late.”
At this moment, a weak and trembling voice was heard. It sounded as if she would cry the next second.
Qiao Xi was wearing a plain dress and looked frail like a flower that was swaying in the wind.
Her eyes were lonely. “A-Are all of you leaving?”
Qiao Zhenguo could not suppress his anger and shouted, “You still have the cheek to come? If you didn’t want to come, you should’ve given me a call to let me know. You made everyone wait so long for nothing. What do you mean by this?”
Qiao Rou cried out, “Sister, you must hate me, so you didn’t want to come. But since you agreed, why did you still do this? Grandma’s health isn’t good, and Dad is sick. They had been waiting for you.”
The label of being unfilial fell heavily on Qiao Xi.
Qiao Rou was well aware that with Qiao Xi’s character, she would absolutely retort.
If Qiao Xi dared to retort, she would cry. At that time, everyone would attack Qiao Xi and Qiao Xi would not be able to explain herself.
Qiao Rou lowered her head and secretly revealed a proud smile.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xi’s entire body trembled as her eyes turned red.
“Sister, I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. The security guards at the door didn’t let me in.
“They said that the Qiao family has only one young miss, and that’s you. I’m just a wild girl. They even told me to get lost! I… They refused to let me in no matter what, so I was late. I’m sorry, everyone.”
Xue Yi: “…”
Qiao Rou choked, and her face turned pale.
What was going on? Was Qiao Xi pretending to be weak?
Qiao Xi sighed helplessly, but she sneered in her heart. Qiao Rou was stunned just like that? Yet she still dared to fight her?
She scanned the crowd indifferently. Indeed, the Qiao family’s expressions were extremely ugly as if they were constipated.
Qiao Xi said again, “Dad, please forgive me. I didn’t know that the security guards at the door didn’t know who I was. I called you, but you didn’t pick up. After that, it was the bodyguard Third Brother sent who subdued the security guards outside, which is how I managed to come in…
“Who knew that you would scold me the moment I came in? Boo-hoo…”
