Chapter 726 - 714
When Qiao Qiqi came out, she saw her brother angrily snatching back his doll and cursing the person who had been messing with it.
"It’s just a broken toy, isn’t it? How much could it really be worth?" A young man from the Qiao Family disdainfully pointed at the doll that Qiao Jiezhe was holding as if it were a treasure.
"Not much, just a hundred thousand yuan," Qiao Qiqi walked over with a cold expression, her face exuding an icy demeanor.
The young man was startled and said nervously, "Who are you trying to fool? This junk isn’t worth a hundred thousand. I wouldn’t want it even if you gave it to me for free, it’d just take up space!"
"No matter how much it costs, if it’s not yours, you shouldn’t touch it! Can’t you understand something so simple? I don’t care who you are or whose family you’re from; right now, all of you go to the second floor on the east side of the villa and find a place to live!" Qiao Qiqi said coldly.
"What do you mean? You’re not the one in charge here! It’s up to my uncle! Is this how you treat guests?" The young man was unhappy, glaring as he spoke.
"First, this is my house, and I have the authority to make decisions. Second, you are here to work, not to be treated like royalty... I’ll only say this once, you can choose to go or not!"
Qiao Qiqi’s expression was very cold. Among the seven young people left, three turned around and walked to the second floor without saying another word.
The other four began to make trouble, saying they wanted to see the uncle in charge...
"Fine, the four of you get out of here immediately!"
The last four were escorted into a car and sent back to Qiao Family Village, packed like luggage.
Qiao Yaozu felt relieved seeing them sent away. Keeping those troublemakers would have given him a headache!
The three who had gone to the second floor saw this and also came over nervously, saying, "Little sister, how about we go too? We don’t want to cause trouble for Uncle and you."
Qiao Qiqi gave the three a bright smile and said, "No, you can stay. My dad will arrange suitable jobs for you, but you’ll have to start from the bottom, not directly take high positions. How far you go depends on your own abilities."
Qiao Qiqi did this to test them; it was clear who was clear and who wasn’t.
The three young men were quite baffled; how did they end up being the ones staying?
When Qiao Qiqi went into her dad’s room, Wu Lening smiled and left, while Qiao Yaozu quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
"Get up, I know you’re not sleeping!" Qiao Qiqi snorted coldly and sat down on the sofa.
Knowing he couldn’t keep pretending, Qiao Yaozu feigned opening his eyes as if he had just woken up, "Qiqi, you’re here? What’s the matter?"
"Dad, you really want to rebuild the ancestral hall for Qiao Family Village?"
"Ah, Qiqi, we’re all surnamed Qiao. It’s appropriate to build the ancestral hall. Spending a little money for peace of mind for the folks back home isn’t a bad thing, and you should show some compassion."
The Qiao Family is quite large, with many successful members and of course more unsuccessful ones. He knew those people just wanted to take advantage, but you can’t write Qiao without the same character, so generally, those who made money outside would give some money back.
"You say I lack compassion?" Qiao Qiqi looked at her dad in surprise.
"You’re incredibly good to the family but a bit too much against unrelated people. They’re not strangers, nor are they enemies. You should learn to be a bit more tactful." Qiao Yaozu worried his daughter might suffer in the future.
