15: Taking Advantage
Editor: Atlas Studios
Hearing Qiao Nian’s words, Qiao Xin looked at her in disbelief.
Her voice shook as she said, “You… you would actually take advantage of me?”
“I haven’t done anything.” Qiao Nian gently caressed Lan’s head, her voice cold.
“You set yourself up to be used by me!”
“Sister, there may have been a misunderstanding…”
“Misunderstanding?” Qiao Nian smiled coldly, her eyes flashing with disgust.
“If you want to marry into a rich family, you have to pay the price.
I just don’t know if you’ll be able to bear it!”
With that, Qiao Nian left, taking Lan with her.
Qiao Xin’s gaze fell on Qiao Nian’s exquisite clothes, and the diamond-encrusted hair clip in Qiao Nian’s hair.
The envy in Qiao Xin’s eyes could not be more obvious.
All of this was supposed to belong to her.
Qiao Nian stole everything from her!
But Qiao Nian’s last sentence haunted her like a nightmare, lingering by her ear.
Qiao Xin began to perspire, beads of cold sweat dripping onto the floor.
When had Qiao Nian become so formidable?
How dare she scheme against Qiao Xin!
Qiao Xin’s mind was in a mess as she followed the butler to the guest room.
When Butler Zhao came out of the house, she could hear the servants gossiping from afar.
“There’s more to Qiao Nian than meets the eye.
She bullied her little sister until she cried!”
“She’s definitely not as straightforward as she seems.
I heard that the Qiao family’s Third Young Mistress was supposed to marry into the Gu family, but Qiao Nian snatched the marriage away from Third Young Mistress Qiao.
There’s no doubt—she’s not simple at all!”
“She racked her brains to figure out how to betray her blood relatives, just to marry into a rich family.
There’s no way someone who did that could still have a good heart!”
Butler Zhao frowned.
She snapped, “All of you are spouting nonsense!
Do you want me to tell Second Young Master everything you said?”
Frightened, the servants immediately dispersed.
They did not dare to go head-to-head with Second Young Master.
He was so fierce!
After reprimanding the servants, Butler Zhao turned around and left.
At this moment, on the top floor of the Gu family’s hotel…
Matriarch Gu sat idly on a chair.
Wearing a pair of spectacles, she looked at the photograph on her phone.
Her lips curved up involuntarily.
“Madam, Miss Zhao has arrived!” A servant stepped into the room, saying respectfully.
“Invite her in, quickly!” Matriarch Gu said with a smile, her gaze never leaving her phone screen.
When she heard footsteps, she looked up and hurriedly called Zhao Qian over.
