Chapter 109: Receiving an Invitation Call
Zi Yi stayed cooped up at home for several days when she suddenly received a call from Qin Yuqiao, inviting her to her home for a dinner party.
Zi Yi raised her brow and felt as if a weasel was paying respects to the hen.[1][2. Weasels eat hens!]
“I felt familiar from the first sight of you and I am sincere in wanting to be good friends with you. Tonight’s dinner is a reception hosted by my family and most of them are youngsters. Shouldn’t you at least do me this honor?”
Zi Yi did not intend to agree.
But before she had the chance to reject her, Qin Yuqiao added. “Second Brother is coming tonight. You don’t have to worry about being uncomfortable due to not having any acquaintances.”
The words that came to her mouth had changed sides. “I’ll consider it.”
She then hung up the phone and hacked into Lu Group’s headquarters for a look.
Clearly, Lu Jingye was very busy.
Zi Yi snorted and continued to be busy with her own work.
Qin Family.
When Qin Yuqiao’s call ended, the two young ladies sitting beside her looked at her curiously.
One of them asked, “Qiaoqiao, who were you calling? You even mentioned Second Brother?”
Qin Yuqiao looked at them with smiling eyes. “It’s Second Brother’s Junior Sister.”
“Second Brother’s Junior Sister?”
Both of them were surprised.
“How come we have never heard of her?”
“How did you come to know about Second Brother’s Junior Sister?”
Qin Yuqiao sat opposite of them and acted as if she wanted to speak, but was hesitating.
Her behavior instantly aroused the duo’s curiosity.
“Qiaoqiao, do tell us. We’ve always been in the capital, so why haven’t we heard that Second Brother has a Junior Sister? Yet, you know even though you recently returned?”
When she saw how curious they were, she recounted what happened when she bumped into Zi Yi.
After the two women listened to her story, they were shocked and furious.
“What? You bought her clothes and she bought so many in one go? Moreover, seven pairs of shoes? She’s obviously taking advantage of you!”
“In my opinion, I think she did it intentionally. New releases from this brand cost tens of grands at least. She had purchased so many in one go. Isn’t she simply treating Qiaoqiao as a lamb to slaughter?”
“Don’t say that.” Qin Yuqiao disagreed with them. “I was the one who promised to pay her bill.”
“Even so, she should not have bought so much!”
“That’s right.”
Just as they were feeling unjust for Qin Yuqiao, the housekeeper came over with an envelope in her hand.
“Fourth Young Lady, this is the information Third Young Master told me to pass on to you and he wants you to take a good look at it. He also mentioned not to treat any random person as a friend. Otherwise, you will be the one suffering losses when the time comes.”
After he said that, he handed the envelope to Qin Yuqiao and left.
Qin Yuqiao took the file and appeared as if she was unwilling to open it.
The two women met gazes and one of them directly took the envelope from her hand and pulled out the documents.
After she read it, she turned to ask Qin Yuqiao. “Is this Zi Yi the person you were talking about?”
“Yes.”
“Good heavens! According to the information, she’s a famous spoiled brat in S City. Not only does she hang out with thugs often, she even stole her cousin’s boyfriend! Most importantly, she’s the woman who He Fei caused a huge commotion about and insisted on marrying. This… she’s too spoiled!”
“Someone like her doesn’t deserve to be Second Brother’s Junior Sister!”
The more they spoke, the angrier they got. One of them looked at Qin Yuqiao and said in a serious tone, “Qiaoqiao, I think you better not invite such a woman. She doesn’t deserve to attend your reception dinner. What if she causes trouble?”
“This… but I’ve already invited her.”
“Then find a random excuse for her not to come.”
