Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder
Chapter 49 The Cannon Fodder Young Master from the Countryside (22)
Zhou Sihan came with his uncle. At such banquets, people are usually not specifically kept out; everyone who comes is a guest.
Qiao Ting, dressed in a pristine white suit and with her hair meticulously styled, stood beside Mrs. Qiao, chatting with the other ladies.
Since Qiao Yu'an wasn't specifically introduced, the crowd didn't take him seriously, some simply assuming he was Chi Xing's male companion.
Only a few close friends of Qiao Ting knew that Qiao Yu'an was the real young master of the Qiao family.
In response, most people mocked him, saying, "So what if he's a real young master? Madam Qiao still only values Qiao Ting."
Besides, Qiao Fang didn't make this public. At most, he said that the Qiao family had twins, and one of them got lost.
As a result, some people even speculated that Qiao Yu'an was actually an illegitimate son of the Qiao family, otherwise why would Madam Qiao dislike him so much? It couldn't be that she hated her own son, could it?
No one would believe these words, especially in wealthy families where the wives would love to have many sons.
Qiao Ting's friends initially intended to help her, but now, seeing Mrs. Qiao's attitude towards Qiao Yu'an, they realized that even if they didn't help her, Qiao Ting wouldn't be bullied.
But this Qiao Yu'an is really good-looking.
Qiao Yu'an's skin, which had turned wheat-colored during the summer vacation, has now become much fairer after two semesters of university and more than a month of being here.
He wore a well-tailored black suit with sapphire cufflinks, and his 1.8-meter height was accentuated by his long, straight legs encased in suit trousers.
Just by standing there, everyone's eyes would involuntarily turn to him.
I initially thought Qiao Ting was some kind of little prince, but after seeing Qiao Yu'an, Qiao Ting seemed like a servant to that little prince.
People who shared this idea included Zhou Sihan, who had just joined the company.
Qiao Yu'an has a very special temperament. She has delicate eyebrows and eyes, but she has an unyielding wildness in her body. The slightly upturned corners of her lips are like the ice and snow on the high mountain, without any warmth.
The way he glanced at me was as if I were a piece of trash.
Zhou Sihan's competitive spirit was aroused by that look.
Zhou Sihan had been in contact with Qiao Ting for a while, but for some reason, Qiao Ting stopped meeting up no matter how many times they asked.
Left with no other choice, he devised a plan to attend the banquet. He needed the Qiao family's help, so he had to get involved with Qiao Ting.
Upon seeing Qiao Yu'an, Zhou Sihan considered changing his strategy; perhaps winning Qiao Yu'an would bring him a greater sense of accomplishment.
Since Qiao Yu'an is also a child of the Qiao family, why does he insist on having Qiao Ting?
Zhou Sihan adjusted his facial expression and revealed a polite and humble smile.
Knowing that he wasn't good-looking, he always presented himself as humble and polite in front of others.
Just like now, he walked up to Qiao Yu'an with a glass of champagne in his hand.
"Are you the young master of the Qiao family?"
As Qiao Yu'an walked over, her stomach began to churn, and she felt a little nauseous.
This person had the same attitude in his past life. Even in the Qiao family, he dared to confess his feelings to him. It's disgusting.
Qiao Yu'an looked at him, slowly frowned, then covered her mouth and nose with her hand and said in a muffled voice, "You have food in your teeth."
After saying that, she left without looking at him again.
Zhou Sihan's smile froze, and he immediately shut his mouth, his face flushed as he looked around.
Some people tried to suppress their laughter and turned away, while others burst out laughing.
Zhou Sihan nearly crushed the cup in his hand, trying hard to recall what he had eaten before.
Qiao Yu'an found a sofa to sit down and waited for Chi Xing to return.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhou Sihan hurrying towards the restroom and sneered inwardly.
On the other side, Chi Xing saw Zhou Sihan talking to Qiao Yu'an from afar.
He had intended to go and take Qiao Yu'an away, but the next moment he saw Qiao Yu'an looking at Zhou Sihan with disdain.
Zhou Sihan hurriedly went to the bathroom, and Chi Xing followed him after seeing that Qiao Yu'an was not in any discomfort.
But soon he saw Zhou Sihan being stopped by Qiao Ting.
Chixing didn't follow, but instead called out 250 and made it follow, while he went back to find Qiao Yu'an.
The little black cat quietly followed the two people into a room and relayed everything that happened there to Chixing's mind.
Chi Xing returned to Qiao Yu'an's side, where several people were sitting opposite her talking.
"Young Master Qiao, why doesn't Madam Qiao introduce you to others? Is it because you're not popular in the Qiao family?"
Akahoshi recognized this person. When he first came to this world, he was drinking with these people in a bar. Most of these people were fools who had been deceived by Joting.
Chi Xing had planned to ignore them if they didn't cause trouble, but unexpectedly, they came to bully Qiao Yu'an while he was away.
Another person chimed in, "What young master? He's just a country bumpkin. Does he think he can compare to Tingting? Tingting grew up in a wealthy family. How can anyone compare to her?"
"Yeah, I just don't know what methods he used to snatch Akahoshi away. It's really despicable."
Everyone knows that Chixing and Qiaoting are childhood friends, and this Qiao Yu'an actually dares to steal them; he's really courting death.
"That's Chi Xing! Would the Chi family agree to let someone from the countryside like him? How could that be?"
Some people said that they saw a figure approaching out of the corner of their eye, and when they turned their heads, they saw Akahoshi looking at them coldly.
The man immediately tugged at the clothes of the person next to him. The person next to him was still talking when he turned around and saw the person in question. His expression changed instantly.
"Red, red star."
Qiao Yu'an had beaten up people in his past life because they spoke rudely, so he didn't intend to hit them this time. He was just about to retort when he saw Chi Xing not far away.
He then fell silent, knowing that these people probably knew Akahoshi as well.
Sure enough, when they saw Akahoshi, even their tone of voice became ingratiating.
“Red Star, we are talking to Young Master Qiao.”
"Yes, I was just joking."
Akahoshi's eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to memorize the appearance of each of them.
The thought that some of their families needed to cooperate with the Chi family sent a chill down their spines.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Yu'an, who had been silent just moments before, spoke up at this moment.
"Brother Xing, do you want to know what they said?"
He turned on his phone, and a recording that had started sometime earlier was playing.
Inside were the words these people used to ridicule and even insult Qiao Yu'an, each word clear and distinct, like slaps delivered hard to their faces.
They never expected Qiao Yu'an to be so cunning, using recording as a scheme.
As Akahoshi listened to these words, his gaze toward them grew even colder.
“He is someone our Chi family acknowledges. It seems you look down on us. In that case, there’s no need for cooperation from now on.”
Of the Chi family members, only Chi Xing attended the banquet; the others were absent. This clearly demonstrates that the Chi family has no need to consider the Qiao family's feelings.
