The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 435 - 433

Let the younger generation resolve their matters themselves. He understands these children; they are all good kids, and he believes they can sort things out on their own.

Lening felt that her daughter’s attitude towards Rong Xun was a bit excessive, so she said, "Qiqi, they are all brothers. How can you favor one over the other?"

"Mom, I have my own principles in doing things." Qiao Qiqi replied lightly, her tone wasn’t exactly displeased, but it was a bit cold.

Lening felt a bit uncomfortable.

Elder Rong immediately served her some food, "Xiao Ning, eat more. Today is our first reunion dinner as father and daughter."

Qiao Yue’er sat at the very end, and a flash of something sharp appeared in her eyes as she lowered her head.

Outside, people began setting off firecrackers and fireworks, and phones were buzzing non-stop with New Year’s greetings and red packet notifications.

Qiao Qiqi’s phone never stopped, but she didn’t check it during dinner. It wasn’t until they finished the New Year’s Eve meal that she picked up her phone to look at it on the side.

There were too many messages; she found it a bit overwhelming. Her beautiful lips curled slightly. In her past life, she didn’t have a single friend due to a few troublemakers in her family, and they never had a good New Year.

She opened the messages one by one, discerning which were personally written and which were group messages, and she replied to all of them according to the way they sent their greetings.

Gu Shili, Ning Xiuyuan, Lin Tingyu, Wang Yuxin, and some others with whom she had a good relationship even sent her red packets.

Qiao Qiqi returned red packets to them according to the different amounts.

Before she finished sending them all, Qiao Jiezhe dragged her off to set off fireworks.

On the second floor, Rong Yuan and Rong Xun stood at the end of the corridor by the window, watching the people downstairs. Rong Yuan said, "Why don’t you like Qiqi?"

Rong Yuan truly couldn’t understand what his third brother was thinking. Qiqi was so wonderful, like a fairy sister. How could anyone not like her? He really couldn’t fathom it.

Rong Xun was silent for a moment, then sighed, "I’ve really been scared off by Rong Nian Nian."

With just one sentence, Rong Yuan understood what was going on with his brother. He turned his overly refined and handsome face to say, "Qiqi is different from Rong Nian Nian! Qiqi won’t make unreasonable scenes, nor will she only know how to ask for things from others!"

Rong Xun nodded, "I was mistaken."

After observing during this period, he also realized that this new sister was not the same type of person as Rong Nian Nian at all. He particularly disliked Rong Nian Nian, but for various reasons, the family doted on her recklessly, so he especially disliked her!

He didn’t want another little troublemaker at home, so he instinctively chose to distance himself.

"Hmm, get along well with Qiqi, and she’ll make you realize how happy it is to have a sister!" Rong Yuan patted his third brother’s shoulder.

Rong Xun stared at the girl downstairs with a smile like a blooming flower, and his heart gradually softened.

It’s just that trying to please this sister now was rather awkward for him.

...

In the casino.

Qiao Guangzong made several calls but couldn’t get through.

Of course, he couldn’t get through, because Qiao Qiqi had people watching him all along, knowing he would seek help from their father. And for the sake of family blood ties, their father wouldn’t just sit by and watch his own brother get his hands chopped off; he would only compromise.

But she didn’t want to give Qiao Guangzong this opportunity!

Give him a chance, so he could harm their family again?

Thus, unable to find anyone to help him, Qiao Guangzong finally had both his hands chopped off and was thrown out of the casino.
