Chapter 22: Bloody Birthday Banquet

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Soon, Mother Ji’s birthday banquet arrived.

On this day, Qiao Zhen deliberately wore a violet-colored dress. The tight-fitting dress accentuated her alluring curves, and with her seductive face, she charmed everyone.

​ 

The moment she appeared, she directly crushed the radiance that originally belonged to Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu also wore extremely luxurious clothes, but compared to Qiao Zhen, it was apparent that it was not enough.

Qiao Yu felt like she was putting a bunch of valuable things on herself, but she was not as beautiful as Qiao Zhen. Because of her beauty, the gown appeared even more beautiful.

Qiao Zhen walked through the crowd in her high heels, slowly walking in the direction of Mother Ji. The surrounding people all dispersed, taking the initiative to make way for her.

At the end of the road, Qiao Yu was hugging Madam Ji’s arm. Seeing Qiao Zhen coming over, she wanted to tear that face of hers apart.

Qiao Yu continued to encourage her, “Auntie Ji, Qiao Zhen must be here to curry favor with you. If she is still thinking about Ji Xuan… then what should I do?”

Mother Ji patted Qiao Yu’s hand to reassure her. She did not care about Qiao Zhen at all, and her eyes were filled with contempt.


“So what if that b*tch comes back? Don’t worry, you’re the daughter-in-law that I’ve decided on in my Heart.”

Qiao Yu lowered her head and smiled, taking out the gift that she had prepared meticulously.

“I hope you like it.”

Mother Ji held it and looked at it, unable to hide her satisfaction. “Girl, this isn’t cheap. You’re too kind.”

“No matter how expensive it is, it’s not worthy of you. Only with you will this jewelry be of value.”

Qiao Yu was not stingy with her praise. She flattered Mother Ji constantly, coaxing her very happily.

Qiao Zhen walked up to the two of them and greeted them first according to the rules.

“Mrs. Ji, happy birthday. I wish you a long life and good luck for your children and grandchildren.”

Mother Ji’s attitude was arrogant. She did not even look at Qiao Zhen. What she held in her hands was the gift that Qiao Yu had just given her.

She did not ask clearly and started lecturing her directly.

“Qiao Zhen, give up on this idea. My Ji Xuan will only marry Qiao Yu. You are the miss of the Qiao family after all. How can you be so shameless?”

Qiao Zhen pursed her lips into a smile. She looked elegant and intelligent, and her purple dress made her even more beautiful.

“Mrs. Ji, you’re mistaken. I’m not here to curry favor with Ji Xuan. I’m just here to retrieve my things.”

Qiao Zhen continued to smile as she looked at Mrs. Ji in front of her.

Five years ago, in order to curry favor with this future mother-in-law, she had been cruel enough to give away the jade bracelet left behind by her biological mother. Now, it was time to retrieve it.

“What is it? What is yours?” Mother Ji’s expression changed, and she quietly withdrew her hand.

“My mother’s bracelet. I gave it to you because I was blind. You haven’t forgotten, have you? After all, you wear it every day!”

Qiao Zhen had long seen the violet bracelet on Mother Ji’s wrist. She took a step forward and pulled Mother Ji’s hand to show it to everyone. “Mrs. Ji, this is the bracelet. Aren’t you going to return it to me?”

“What nonsense are you talking!”

Mrs. Ji felt a chill run down her spine as she struggled free from Qiao Zhen’s grip. In the blink of an eye, she grabbed Qiao Yu’s hand and hid behind it. “Bodyguard! Bodyguard!”

This bracelet was a good thing. She had been wearing it for so many years. Why did Qiao Zhen suddenly remember it!

She wouldn’t return it!

The bodyguard had been hiding in the surroundings the whole time and surrounded her.

A bodyguard stood in front of Qiao Zhen. “Miss Qiao, please leave.”

Qiao Zhen slowly squatted down, took off her high heels, and threw them aside. Then, she curled her finger at the bodyguards who didn’t know what was going to happen.

“Come, let’s attack together!”

Mother Ji thought she was safe and waited to see how Qiao Zhen would be thrown out by the bodyguards. However, the situation was beyond her imagination.

Qiao Zhen relied on her agile body to knock down a few bodyguards before they could even make a move. Then, she raised her fist and punched the bodyguards who were still standing around her!

In less than three minutes, the bodyguards all fell to the ground one by one, while the skinny Qiao Zhen was still standing steadily.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ji wanted to run away, but was immediately grabbed by Qiao Zhen and pressed onto the table!

“Qiao Zhen! Stop!”

Hearing that something had happened, Ji Xuan rushed over.

Qiao Zhen Glanced at Ji Xuan, picked up a fruit knife from the table, and waved it towards Mother Ji’s hand.


“If you don’t take it off, I’ll cut your hand off. How about that?”

“Don’t move! Qiao Zhen! Don’t do anything! Mom, give it to her!”

It was rare for Ji Xuan to show his nervousness. He was at a loss for what to do in this situation. He realized that Qiao Zhen was a man of her word!

The birthday banquet had turned into a joke. She was unwilling to be humiliated in public in her most gorgeous clothes, but she didn’t want to be crippled…

“Qiao Zhen, it’s just a broken bracelet. I’ll give it back to you!”

Mrs. Ji struggled. The shiny knife in front of her forced her to give in.

Qiao Zhen let her go after hearing the satisfactory answer. Looking at Mrs. Ji’s livid face, she didn’t forget to say something to annoy her.

“Why didn’t you cooperate earlier?”

After receiving the bracelet, Qiao Zhen put on her shoes in front of everyone, tidied up her clothes, and left. However, none of them dared to stop her.
