Chapter 472: Chapter 467: Chu Xiaoqiao
Li Zhao and his wife, along with Xiao Qi, were surprised when they received reports of someone causing trouble downstairs. They couldn’t believe someone dared to make a scene at the wedding banquet of the young master of the Li family.
“Let’s go down and have a look, or else it won’t look good if it gets out of hand.” Xiao Qi stood up first and addressed Li Zhao and An Hao.
“Let’s go and see who dares to give me this much face.” Li Zhao had not been seen in the Imperial Capital for many years, but that didn’t mean he was no longer significant.
“An’an, come, let’s go down and have a look.” Li Zhao extended his hand to his wife.
“Yes, I want to see who dares to make a scene at our wedding banquet.” An Hao displayed a different momentum from her usual naive appearance at this moment.
“Let’s go, don’t dawdle.” For some reason, Xiao Qi felt an urgent sense of haste urging him to hurry downstairs.
When the three arrived downstairs, Chu Beiying and her four bodyguards had just left.
Xiao Qi only caught a glimpse of a blurry figure from the back. He anxiously chased after but was one step too late. By the time he reached the door, he only saw a distant car driving away.
For some reason, Xiao Qi felt emptiness in his heart. Staring at the disappearing car, he returned to the hall absent-mindedly.
Li Zhao and An Hao went separately to investigate the situation.
“So, a mysterious girl who has never appeared before somehow made her way to my wedding and ends up starting a commotion with Ms. Gu?” An Hao asked the beauties gathered around.
“Actually, it wasn’t the girl who started it. When she came in, she was accused by Ms. Gu of bumping into her. So Ms. Gu tried to hit her. However, Ms. Gu certainly didn’t expect that the girl was much stronger than her, and had her defeated in an instant. But Ms. Gu had no self-awareness, so it became a big fuss.” Chu Xiaoqiao overheard An Hao and their conversation and told her what she had seen.
“Yes, we had no idea that Ms. Gu was that kind of person, blaming others for her own mistakes.” The beauties initially didn’t dare to speak up about what they witnessed, worried about offending people.
But now, seeing someone else leading the conversation, they all chimed in agreement.
“Ms. Chu, thank you for telling me what happened.” An Hao politely thanked Chu Xiaoqiao.
“You’re welcome. I only told you the truth because I know you’re a childhood friend of my brother.” Chu Xiaoqiao waved her hand.
“Anyway, thank you for being honest.” An Hao smiled gently and gracefully at Chu Xiaoqiao.
“Eh, you don’t seem as silly as everyone says. Why do people say you’re so naive?” Chu Xiaoqiao touched her chin and walked around An Hao, asking confusedly.
“Do you think I’m silly?” An Hao raised her eyebrows and asked Chu Xiaoqiao. An Hao knew what people thought of her, but she used to be innocent indeed.
Because she was pampered by her family back then, she didn’t need to grow up.
But now she was married and pregnant, and if she continued her old ways, her child would definitely be harmed. She could be hurt, but she couldn’t let her child get hurt.
So, An Hao had to change her previous lifestyle and revert to her original nature.
“Not silly at all. Instead, you’re very clever.” Chu Xiaoqiao observed her thoroughly before reaching a conclusion.
“Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Ms. Chu.” An Hao was only acquainted with Chu Xiaoqiao and was not close to her, partly because of Chu Molin’s presence.
“No need to thank, I just speak the truth.” Chu Xiaoqiao waved her hand generously, picked up a glass of wine, and walked away.
