It was actually rather calm outside Waterside Loft.
Everyone’s attention was on the guests the Qiao Family had invited, and nobody really noticed Qiao Nian’s bunch.
But with Qiao Chen raising her voice, everyone suddenly turned their way.
The reporters also looked in that direction and saw that the girl using her cell phone was too good-looking!
She wasn’t wearing any branded clothing, nor was she dressed exquisitely for the event. But her aura and presence thumbed Qiao Chen’s down.
When she looked up, everyone noticed her eyes—so beautiful.
And her skin, fair and soft.
Those thin eyelids and dark eyes were slightly tipped upwards at their tips, making her look a little playful and clever!
This face would stand out even in the entertainment industry.
And they noticed right away that she wasn’t wearing makeup at all. She was bare-faced!
The reporters got very interested.
“Who’s this girl? She’s so beautiful.”
“Qiao Nian, this name sounds familiar.”
“Ah, I remember now, she’s Jiang Li’s younger sister. Wasn’t there huge news about the steel cable a while ago? A top-tier celebrity’s sister was involved in the matter. I think she’s Qiao Nian!”
“I saw her photo online, but it was a little blurry. I thought it was Photoshopped for her to look good, and then it went viral. I didn’t expect her to look so good in person. What a waste she didn’t join the entertainment circle.”
“What top is she wearing? It looks rather familiar, too.”
Everyone’s focus was on Qiao Nian, as if today’s lead was no longer Qiao Chen.
Fu Ge looked at the girl, too. The moment his gaze landed on her, he couldn’t look away.
Madam Fu and Tang Wei looked at her, too. They had been at loggerheads with Qiao Nian recently, and their faces darkened when they saw her.
Qiao Chen gritted her teeth. She was happy to see Qiao Nian embarrass herself while also annoyed at Xu Xu.
“Qiao Nian, where’s the person you’re waiting for?”
“Damn!” Shen Qingqing lost her cool. She rolled her sleeves up and yelled in her face. “Your mouth is so stinky. I thought Qiao Chen was the only person who filled her mouth in the toilet, but it turns out all of you are the same. What is it, the toilet’s discounted today? Free for the elderly and the retarded?”
This was the first time Jiang Tingting saw the student committee member scold someone. It felt so good!
Xu Xu wanted to curry favor with Qiao Chen at this point and thus retorted coldly, “Hehe, you’re only good at talking. Besides bombarding us with words, what else can you do? If you have so much time to tell us off, why don’t you also get your ‘master’ to hurry her friend.”
Shen Qingqing wanted to kick her so badly. “Whether they come or not is none of your business! We’re not taking anything of yours.”
Xu Xu scoffed and sneered. “I just can’t take it lying down when some people like putting on an act.”
She turned to look at Qiao Nian and said arrogantly, “Qiao Nian, I’m talking about you, why are you playing dumb? Aren’t you always so powerful in school? You’re becoming the most outstanding kid in Class A, but you dare not even make a sound when I’m attacking you. You’d rather let your friends stand up for you.”
Chen Yuan and Shen Qingqing clenched their fists as they fumed.
Liang Bowen even took his cell phone out and almost gave his parents a call to get their help.
But who would’ve known that the girl being attacked merely looked up at her? She kept her cell phone as her eyes emanated a bossy vibe. When she spoke, her tone sounded as if she wasn’t fully out of bed yet. “Why are you so anxious?”
