“I hereby announce that the champion of the violin competition from three years ago is revoked! No one won that competition!”
Morper announced loudly. Actually, in his heart, Qiao Xi was undoubtedly the champion. It was just that Qiao Xi might not care anymore.
Zhao Qinghui’s legs went weak, and he almost fell to the floor. He had to support himself on the chair to steady himself. His eyes were filled with defeat.
Yao Mengqing widened her eyes in horror. She was about to explain when she saw the disdainful gazes of everyone. She could only suppress her anger and lower her head.
‘Qiao Xi! I won’t let you off!
‘One day, I’ll return all the pain and humiliation you gave me. I’ll let you have a taste of it!’
The Li family came forward to mediate the situation. “Someone! Help Mr. Zhao to the lounge. The banquet will continue.”
…
The banquet was very lively. No one mentioned the incident just now. Everyone had a tacit understanding that mentioning this matter would undoubtedly humiliate Yao Mengqing even further and make the Li family feel disgusted.
Li Xing’er pulled her sister to the side and complained, “How shameless! I really want to chase Yao Mengqing out! Is she really a daughter of a rich family? Which noble daughter could do such despicable things?”
The younger sister blinked and said in a low voice, “Look, Yao Mengqing is going to create trouble again!”
Li Xing’er turned around and saw Yao Mengqing holding a wine glass. She was walking toward Qiao Xi with a group of people.
“Miss Qiao, I’m very sorry. I really didn’t know that Zhao Qinghui deliberately made the decision to eliminate you. If you had participated in the competition back then, this championship would’ve been yours! I’m indeed not worthy!”
Yao Mengqing raised her glass with a gentle expression. “Miss Qiao, this glass of wine is my apology. Can you… forgive me?”
Madam Yao chimed in, “Miss Qiao, Mengqing didn’t know anything. It was all Zhao Qinghui’s doing!”
Lin Weiwei also said, “Sister Mengqing and President Gu are good friends! If you don’t forgive her, won’t you be making things difficult for President Gu too? It’s not a big deal anyway. It’s just a matter of words.”
Li Xing’er was angry. These people were shameless. Even if Yao Mengqing, this b*tch, was apologizing, why should Qiao Xi forgive her? Moreover, everyone knew what was going on. Zhao Qinghui would not have done it for no reason. He must have done it for Yao Mengqing.
Wasn’t it too late to pretend to be innocent now?
Seeing that Qiao Xi did not reply after a long time, Yao Mengqing’s eyes instantly welled up with tears as she choked. “Xi Xi… If you’re unwilling to forgive me, I won’t blame you. Boo-hoo…”
“Qiao Xi! You’re too heartless! It’s already been three years, yet you’re still unwilling to let this go! Sister Mengqing has already apologized to you. What else do you want? Can’t you tell that she’s very guilty now? This isn’t her fault at all. What else do you want?”
Yao Mengqing hurriedly stopped her. “Wei Wei, don’t say anymore. It’s normal for Miss Qiao to be dissatisfied. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have fought for the championship. If I knew that Xi Xi was also participating in the competition, I wouldn’t have hesitated to give the championship to her.”
“You want to beg Xi Xi for forgiveness?”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
Gu Zheng leaned lazily on the sofa and swept his cold gaze across the crowd.
His eyes were deep as he gently took a sip of red wine. His lips were also stained with some red.
Gu Zheng sneered. “Shouldn’t you show some sincerity if you want Xi Xi to forgive you? Yao Mengqing, what should you call Xi Xi?”
Everyone was puzzled. Yao Mengqing had just called Qiao Xi ‘Miss Qiao’ and also called her ‘Xi Xi’ intimately. Could it be that there were other titles?
Gu Zheng said slowly, “Since you know that we’re married, shouldn’t you call her Mrs. Gu?”
Yao Mengqing’s heart stopped.
Li Xing’er smiled. “Yes! Yao Mengqing, you know that President Gu and Mrs. Gu are married, but you keep calling her Miss Qiao instead of Mrs. Gu.
“You keep saying that you’re President Gu’s good friend, but you keep calling her ‘Miss Qiao’. Are you doing this on purpose?
“Do you think we won’t know that you’re not acknowledging Mrs. Gu’s identity? That’s too laughable!”
