Qiao Xi raised her eyes and saw two young women walk in. One of them walked in front of the middle-aged man and asked arrogantly, “How much is this vase?”
The middle-aged man smiled as he stated the request to get this vase. The woman instantly looked impatient. She glanced at Qiao Xi and Gu Yao, then pointed at them and asked, “Are you here to buy vases too?”
Before Qiao Xi could answer, the young woman said, “This has nothing to do with you. Get out immediately and don’t affect our shopping!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the bodyguards behind her rushed over to chase them away. Gu Yao was the second young master of the Gu family. When had he ever been treated like this? He said angrily, “Does your family own this place? What right do you have to chase us away?”
The woman’s face was full of disdain as she said impatiently, “This vase is mine. Why are you still here? Besides, when I buy things, I don’t like outsiders being around.”
Gu Yao looked at the middle-aged man indignantly. “Who is she? How can she be so rude? Are you just going to watch her fool around?”
The man said gently, “Whoever meets the requirements will naturally get the vase.”
What he meant was that if they were so easily chased away by this woman, they would definitely not have the ability to invite the top craftsman in the world to make the porcelain piece. Hence, he was indeed going to sit back and do nothing.
Qiao Xi curled her lips. This shop was quite unique.
The young woman glanced at Qiao Xi and said arrogantly, “If you still don’t leave, I’ll get the bodyguards to chase you away. Are you worthy of buying things in the same shop as us?”
The staff in the shop all thought that this woman was too arrogant. It had to be known that the people who came here to buy things were either rich or noble. If they were not careful, they would easily offend others.
Gu Yao’s face darkened. It was fine if he suffered a little, but he could not let Qiao Xi suffer with him. If Gu Zheng found out, he would be beaten up.
The woman beside the arrogant woman looked a little older. She smiled gently, but her eyes were filled with indifference. “I’m sorry. My sister is a little impatient. Please don’t take offense. This pink porcelain vase is very important to me. It’s something that the elders in our family love. I have to buy it no matter what. Please leave.”
Gu Yao retorted, “This gentleman just said that whoever meets the requirements can take the vase. We can compete fairly. Why should we leave just because this vase is important to you?”
The arrogant woman snorted with a proud expression. “Do you know who my sister is?! It’s naturally not difficult for her to find the top craftsman in the world! Are you worthy of competing with my sister? Get out immediately!”
Gu Yao: “…” Damn! This woman was even more arrogant than him!
Suddenly, someone asked in surprise, “Uhh… Is that Miss Tang?”
“Is it really Miss Tang? Miss Tang is the eldest daughter of a family of porcelain masters. She has been talented in porcelain since she was young and is known as the porcelain goddess.”
Qiao Xi recalled that her second brother had once said that among the four major porcelain families, the Luo family was at the top while the Tang family was ranked last. The Tang family was no longer as powerful as before, but the reputation they had accumulated over the years was still there.
Miss Tang’s expression was indifferent as she nodded slightly at that person and admitted her identity.
The arrogant woman at the side pointed at Qiao Xi and Gu Yao as she roared, “Let me tell you. Don’t think that you can buy everything with just money. Even if you have money, you won’t be able to hire the top porcelain craftsman in the world!”
Gu Yao had never been looked down on like this since he was born. He said angrily, “Whether we can get it or not is our business. Moreover, we were clearly here first. Why do you have to clear the area the moment you arrive? This isn’t the Tang family’s territory!”
Gu Yao glanced coldly at Miss Tang. This woman looked like a noble daughter, but she was watching her sister fool around without stopping her. She was not a good person either!
Miss Tang looked at Qiao Xi and said in a gentle tone, “Miss, I understand that you also want this vase, but this gentleman said that whoever can meet his requirements can get this vase. Are you sure you can invite the top craftsman in the world? If you can’t, then don’t waste your effort.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the arrogant woman said, “You’re just a stupid rich second-generation heir. Yet you want to compete with my sister for this vase? Don’t you have any shame?!”
