1185 Shell Wind Chime

Xia Mengyan suddenly had an idea. If Qiao Xi was angry at her because of a worthless shell wind chime, how would Gu Zheng react?

Perhaps Gu Zheng would think that it was just an ordinary shell wind chime and Qiao Xi was angry over nothing. He would think her temper was too bad and she was nothing like her usual weak and gentle self at all.

Grandma had taught her how to deal with women since she was young, so Xia Mengyan knew very well how to destroy Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng's relationship without batting an eyelid. Hence, she said with a smile, Xi Xi, I know you don't like me, but Aunt is your biological mother and Aunt Yunqiu's sister. She's only here to see where Aunt Yunqiu lived when she was alive. What's wrong with that? Why are you throwing a tantrum?!

Xia Yunlou glared fiercely at Qiao Xi. Look at how understanding Mengyan is. Look at you. You're really a rival from my previous life!

Xia Mengyan smiled. Xi Xi, it was wrong of us to disturb you rashly, but Aunt has always missed Aunt Yunqiu, who has passed away. She knows that Aunt Yunqiu used to live here, so she brought me here. I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so I brought you a gift.

With that, Xia Mengyan took out a velvet square box from her bag. Inside was a diamond-studded bracelet. She was supposed to wear it when she participated in events, but she had to use this bracelet to put on a show first.

Xia Mengyan smiled sincerely and took out the bracelet from the box. She said gently, Xi Xi, I know you have a lot of precious jewelry. This bracelet is nothing to you, but I spent a million yuan to buy it. This is just a token of my appreciation. There were some misunderstandings between us in the past. Take this bracelet as an apology.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes slightly. Xia Mengyan was taking the initiative to express goodwill? There must be something fishy going on.

The next second, Xia Mengyan pointed at the shell wind chime on the ground and said with a smile, Xi Xi, I've already given you a gift. Can you give this to me? I don't want anything precious. I just want this shell wind chime. I felt a close affinity to it at first glance. This thing shouldn't be important to you. Can you give it to me?

Xia Mengyan was very sure that Qiao Xi valued this shell wind chime very much, so she wanted to snatch it and cause trouble for Qiao Xi.

No, Qiao Xi replied coldly. However, the more she refused without hesitation, the more Xia Mengyan was certain of the importance of this shell wind chime.

Xia Mengyan was neither anxious nor impatient. She said regretfully, Xi Xi, this is just a shell wind chime. I'm willing to exchange it for a bracelet worth a million yuan. Why aren't you willing?

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Yunlou shouted at the top of her voice, Qiao Xi, why are you so petty?! Mengyan has already given you a bracelet worth a million yuan. She only wants this shell wind chime, but you're unwilling to give it to her. How did I give birth to a daughter like you?!

Xia Mengyan hurriedly went forward to comfort her. Aunt, don't be angry at me. It's fine if Xi Xi doesn't agree. I gave her the bracelet of my own volition. As for whether she'll give it to me or not, I won't force her. I'm just afraid that if this matter gets out, others will say that Xi Xi doesn't know any etiquette and accepted a bracelet worth a million yuan but refused to return the favor.

She gave Qiao Xi a gift of 1,000,000 yuan, then chose the most worthless item among the pile of expensive items. It was completely to accommodate Qiao Xi, but Qiao Xi was unwilling to give the worthless item to her. Anyone would think that Qiao Xi was too rude.

What would Gu Zheng think of her?

Xia Mengyan looked up at Gu Zheng with an aggrieved expression. Mr. Gu, what do you think? I'm doing this for Xi Xi's own good. I'm afraid that people will gossip about her. After all

There are only four of us at the scene. If we don't say anything, and if Miss Xia and Madam Xia don't say anything, who will find out? Gu Zheng interrupted Xia Mengyan coldly and raised his eyebrows. Or do you want to spread this matter and ruin Xi Xi's reputation?

The butler had already left the storage room. There were only the four of them present, so Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi would naturally not tell anyone. In that case, only the two of them were left.

Xia Mengyan choked. Her eyes turned red as she bit her lip. I I don't know what to do. I just want this shell wind chime. If Xi Xi doesn't want to agree to it, then forget it. I

Qiao Xi didn't even look up. Xia Mengyan was right. She did look down on that bracelet. It wasn't because the gift was expensive but because it was a gift from Xia Mengyan. She hated it.

If you don't leave, I'll call the police. As she spoke, Qiao Xi took out her phone. Xia Yunlou's face was deathly pale. She knew that Qiao Xi was capable of doing so. If the police came and arrested them, it would be too embarrassing.
