BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2111 - 2111 Twins
It was such an embarrassing scene that day. People were talking about it everywhere. How could Qiao Weiyang not have heard of it?
However, the Qiao family’s matter had nothing to do with her now. Qiao Weiyang could not be bothered.
“It’s nothing serious. There was a problem with the red agate bracelets I bought from you last time? I spent so much money to buy them from you, but as soon as one of them fell into Old Madam Han’s hands, there was a problem. It made her very angry and she even fell sick. This matter has a huge impact on the Qiao family. You can’t ignore it. After all, you were the one who sold me the bracelets in the beginning.”
Qiao Jierou indirectly pushed the blame on Qiao Weiyang with the way she phrased her words.
It implied that the root of the problem was Qiao Weiyang.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone at the table looked at Qiao Weiyang.
One could imagine the anger on everyone’s faces.
Qiao Weiyang glanced at these people, then her gaze landed on Qiao Jierou. “At that time, I said that the bracelets weren’t for sale but you forcefully insisted on buying them. I had no choice but to sell them to you. Why has it become my responsibility now?”
Without waiting for Qiao Jierou to defend herself, she continued, “At that time, I refused to sell you the bracelets because there was something wrong with them. I was afraid that something would happen if you bought them. You were the one who insisted on buying them. I had no choice but to sell them to you.”
Qiao Jierou’s expression changed.
There was something wrong with the bracelets? Did Qiao Weiyang know about it at that time?
“You knew there was something wrong with the bracelets, yet you still sold them to me?”
“I said I wasn’t selling them, but you insisted on buying them. What could I have done? I thought it wouldn’t be a big problem for you to buy them and wear them yourself, so I didn’t say anything. Why? Didn’t I reject you thoroughly enough back then? Do you need me to get a witness?”
Following Qiao Weiyang’s words, everyone slowly realized what was going on.
Qiao Jierou was filled with regret.
She had spent so much money to buy the bracelets from Qiao Weiyang, but they were defective from the start.
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have insisted on buying them back then.
“Grandma, I wanted to buy them to be filial to you… That’s why I was so anxious. I’m sorry.”
Qiao Jierou’s cries were met with Old Madam Qiao’s heartache. “It’s not your fault. Weiyang, since the matter has already happened, help the Qiao family resolve it.”
“I’ve already given my bracelet away. I can’t get it back,” Qiao Weiyang refused bluntly.
“You!” Old Madam Qiao was so angry that her heart ached.
Qiao Dongliang could not help but say, “That’s enough. Is there a point in bullying my sister? You bought the bracelets yourself. Now that something has happened, you’re asking my sister to take responsibility. How can you say and do such a thing?”
Qiao Jierou glared at him. Was there something wrong with his brain?
Didn’t he know who his biological sister was?
“Alright, alright. Let’s eat something first.” Qiao Qijie tried to smooth things over. “Weiyang, stay and eat something too.”
Qiao Weiyang was about to leave when Qiao Qijie stopped her. “Weiyang, sit a little longer.”
Apart from being cowardly and sloppy, he actually treated Qiao Weiyang quite well.
Qiao Weiyang did not insist on leaving. Instead, she sent a message to Director Cao, telling him that she would go back in a few minutes.
Things did not go well tonight, so everyone was in a bad mood.
Huang Shumin noticed this and said with a smile, “I got the kitchen to cook this high-quality deep-sea cucumber soup. Everyone, try it.”
Madam Lin couldn’t help but nod and say, “It’s very difficult to book this set meal. You’re really considerate.”
“I originally planned to invite you and Lin Heng to a meal today, so I made an appointment a week in advance.” Huang Shumin smiled and said, “It’s rare to have such an opportunity. Since we’re all sitting together, let’s not stand on ceremony.”
There was a portion of soup for each of them, and there was also a portion for Lu Wenhui.
However, after Lu Wenhui left, Qiao Weiyang happened to be here. There was enough for all of them.
When the attendant served the soup, they first served the three members of the Lin family according to the order of the guests.
Then, he served Old Madam Qiao.
As Qiao Jierou was sitting next to Old Madam Qiao, Qiao Jierou also received a share.
Qiao Jierou was holding a pug in her hand. She said to the attendant, “Put the extra one on the ground.”
The attendant did as she was asked. The pug immediately went forward to lick the soup.
Therefore, when the last bowl of soup was served, Qiao Weiyang did not have a share.
There was nothing in front of her.
Qiao Jierou immediately apologized. “Ah, I’m sorry, Sister. I forgot that you were still here. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I thought that after President Lu left, there would be more soup, so I gave it to the dog… I’ll give you mine.”
Her attitude was very good, and her sincerity in apologizing was obvious. She looked extremely vexed as if she had really done something wrong.
She held her soup with both hands and was about to bring it to Qiao Weiyang.
How could Qiao Weiyang not know that she was pulling a trick?
It was disgusting to have her soup.
“No, thanks. I won’t drink it.”
Qiao Jierou immediately pursed her lips as if she had suffered a great grievance.
She was clearly the one who caused this, but it was as if Qiao Weiyang was deliberately making things difficult for her.
“I’m really sorry, Sister. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“Why don’t we get the kitchen to make another serving?” Qiao Dongliang said. “Sister, you can drink mine. I’ll just wait.”
Huang Shumin said awkwardly, “We can’t get them to cook it again. All the dishes in this restaurant require an advanced reservation, especially the deep-sea sea cucumber we ordered today. It’s a high-level ingredient in the restaurant, so we have to make a reservation a week in advance.”
The others had drunk from their bowls and couldn’t give them to Qiao Weiyang anymore.
Qiao Dongliang insisted on giving his to Qiao Weiyang. “Sister, you can drink mine.”
It was true that he was being kind.
However, to Qiao Weiyang, no matter whose bowl of soup she accepted tonight, she would be inferior. It was an indescribable embarrassment and humiliation.
Qiao Jierou was deliberately taking the opportunity to tell her that she was an outsider of the Qiao family and the Lin family. She was not welcome here!
When she was not needed, she was an outsider.
But when they needed her, they would do everything they could to make her appear and contribute to the Qiao family!
Apart from Qiao Dongliang, no one else said anything.
Everyone seemed to have tacitly agreed with Qiao Jierou’s actions and did not think that it would hurt Qiao Weiyang much.
Even Qiao Qijie did not say anything. It was even as if it was Qiao Weiyang’s own fault that she was still troubled by Qiao Jierou’s unintentional mistake.
