Chapter 417: You Can Only Call Me 'Brother'

Translator:Henyee TranslationsEditor:Henyee Translations

Qiao Xi was about to leave when Li Xing'er hurriedly advised, There's one more thing. Don't call my brother 'President Li' when you see him. He doesn't like others calling him that. He keeps saying that it makes him sound like an old man. You're about the same age as me, so why don't you just call him

'Brother Li' or 'Brother? Don't be too formal.

Qiao Xi nodded and went straight to the second floor. She had just reached the door when she bumped into a man who looked like an assistant.

The assistant was stunned for a moment and was slightly hesitant. Are you Miss Qiao Xi?

Qiao Xi was also stunned for a moment. Li Xing'er had already told President Li that she would be coming over? He sent someone to pick her up?

As expected of a president, he was very efficient. She nodded. I am.

The assistant's heart was filled with doubts. He did not understand why Qiao Xi would suddenly appear at the door when Madam Chu Lan had just instructed him to fetch Qiao Xi. After thinking about it, he figured that Madam Chu Lan had called Qiao Xi or sent her a message, so he did not ask further.

'What was even stranger was that Mr. Mysterious in the office wore a mask and looked like an emotionless machine. But it turned out that he was also interested in women?

The assistant looked at Qiao Xi. He had to admit that she was indeed very beautiful and had a cold aura.

He bent down and said respectfully, Miss Qiao, Sir is already waiting inside. Please come in.

Qiao Xi sighed. The Li family's assistants were really cultured. This man and Song Shiyu were both assistants. Why was the difference so huge?

However, President Li's assistant called him 'Sir.' Indeed, he did not like others calling him 'President Li.

The assistant brought Qiao Xi to the office and knocked on the door. Sir, Miss Qiao is here.

The person in the room hummed. Qiao Xi suddenly felt that this voice was a little familiar.

The assistant bent down and reached out with a smile. Miss Qiao, please go in.

Qiao Xi thought in her heart that there was no need to be so polite, right? She was just helping Li Xing'er send a message. It was just a matter of relaying a message, so why did it seem like she was here for an inspection?

However, Qiao Xi did not think too much about it. She simply thought that the Li family was strict with their upbringing. The legendary President Li was good at managing people.

Qiao Xi was not in a rush to enter. She stood at the door and thought for a few seconds. Since she could not call him 'President Li,' how should she call him? 'Mr. Li'? However

At this moment, her phone rang. It was a message from Li Xing'er: [Qiao Xi, you must remember not to call him 'President Li. Just call him 'Brother'. Otherwise, if he's unhappy, he'll forcefully bring me back. I won't be able to participate in the competition anymore. I beg you! Whether or not I can

participate will depend on you!]

Qiao Xi had a helpless expression.

She could feel that Li Xing'er really liked jewelry design. She was also a jewelry designer herself, so she could empathize with Li Xing'er.

Since she had already promised Li Xing'er, she would persuade President Li not to come fetch her back. She would just do as Li Xing'er said and call him 'Brother:

A smile hung on the comers of Qiao Xi's mouth. She took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and chuckled. Hello, Brother.

Gu Zheng,

When Qiao Xi raised her eyes and saw the familiar face before her, she was instantly petrified.

Gu Zheng said, Before you entered, you didn't know that I was looking for you, right? Or do you just call out 'Brother' whenever you see someone?

Instantly, the atmosphere in the room changed. The smile on Qiao Xi's face gradually vanished, and a terrified expression appeared on her face.

'Wait, wasn't the person in the office supposed to be President Li? Why was it Gu Zheng?

Before she could figure it out, the man walked in front of her with his long legs and said in a hoarse voice, Mrs. Gu, I really want to know who you're calling 'Brother'.

Qiao Xi's heart trembled as she shuddered. If Gu Zheng knew that she called President Li 'Brother' the first time she met him, would he directly kill Li Xing'er's brother?

Qiao Xi hurriedly smiled. Idiot! Of course, I'm calling you 'Brother'! Who else would I call that?!

Gu Zheng's eyes were deep as his deep voice echoed in her ears. Is that so?

Qiao Xi's entire body trembled as she replied guiltily, Yes, that's right.

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and stared at her with burning eyes. Mrs. Gu, I'm your husband. You can only call me 'Brother' and not anyone else..
