1489 People’s Prejudice Is A Mountain
“Have we met?” Qiao Xi still had an indifferent expression. Old Madam Kang was angered to the point her face turned red. She panted heavily and could not say anything.
Kang Ru, who was at the side, hurriedly said, “Xi Xi, this is your grandmother.”
Old Madam Kang pointed at Qiao Xi while trembling and flew into a rage. “You’re indeed an uneducated wild girl! You don’t even greet your elders when you see them and you’re still pretending not to know me. I told you to come here. Are you deaf?”
The surrounding crowd was full of questions. How could Miss Qiao not know her grandmother? Even if she did not grow up by the old lady’s side, she could not be so cold!
Everyone around Fragrance Hotel looked over. What puzzled them was that Fragrance Hotel was Qin An’s territory. Ordinary people would not cause trouble here as they were afraid of offending Qin An. Even if someone really caused trouble, an attendant would ask them to leave. Why did the usher standing at the door have no intention of chasing them away?
Old Madam Kang was angered to the point her face was ashen. Being rejected by Fragrance Hotel had already caused her anger to soar. Now, Qiao Xi’s attitude made her unable to restrain her anger. Her voice gradually became sharp. “I’ll say it one last time. Come over immediately!”
The surroundings were silent as everyone’s gazes landed on Qiao Xi. She raised her eyes slightly and said casually, “Old Madam Kang, if I remember correctly, this is the first time we’ve met, right? I’ve never seen you before, so I naturally didn’t know that you’re my grandmother. Why would I obediently go over when a stranger asked me to get lost?”
Kang Ru frowned. The corners of Old Madam Kang’s mouth twitched slightly as she shouted in exasperation, “You sharp-tongued wild girl!”
Qiao Xi looked at her with a deep gaze. Before she could speak, Gu Zheng’s expression darkened. His thin lips parted slightly. “The Kang family has never raised Xi Xi, and she has never spent a single cent of the Kang family’s money. You’re naturally not Xi Xi’s elders. Moreover, didn’t we agree not to keep in contact anymore, Mr. Kang?”
Hearing Gu Zheng mention him, Kang Ru frowned even more and explained in a panic, “Xi Xi, your grandmother only arrived in Li City today. I wanted to arrange for you to meet, but an accident happened.”
Old Madam Kang was still filled with anger. This was not an accident at all. It was Qiao Xi who offended the boss of Fragrance Hotel and caused them to lose their dignity in public. This little b*tch was as annoying as her mother.
For decades, Old Madam Kang had been living the life of a noble madam. Everyone around her tried to please her, and she had never been so angry. At this moment, she had already convicted Qiao Xi and berated loudly, “Qiao Xi! You’re a jinx. You offended the boss of Fragrance Hotel, which is why we were rejected. It’s only right for me to reprimand you!”
Qiao Xi curled her lips indifferently.
Seeing her smile, Gu Zheng understood. She had long known that Old Madam Kang and Kang Ru would come to Fragrance Hotel, so when he mentioned coming, she agreed without hesitation.
At this moment, Kang Ru’s expression was a little ugly. He tried his best to make his tone gentle. “Xi Xi, you’re already 20 years old. You should be more mature. Since you’ve offended someone, you should bear the consequences and not let us lose our reputation with you. Your grandmother came all the way here and just got off the plane today to try the dishes from Fragrance Hotel, but she encountered such a thing…”
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows and asked softly, “You were rejected by Fragrance Hotel. Why are you so sure that I offended the boss of Fragrance Hotel? Have you never thought that it might be your own problem?”
Kang Ru’s eyes were filled with disappointment. “Xi Xi, it doesn’t matter if you’ve offended the boss of Fragrance Hotel. I’ve always thought of you as a good child. If you do something, you have to admit to it.”
Old Madam Kang’s gaze was cold as she said fiercely, “You grew up in Li City and are arrogant. Who else could it be but you?”
Qiao Xi was angered to the point of laughing. Indeed, one’s prejudice was like a mountain. Old Madam Kang was her biological grandmother. Moreover, the two of them had never met before, yet she was so disgusted with her. Her eyes were even filled with hatred.
Everyone could not help but look over. Although Qin An had a noble status in Li City, Miss Qiao’s status was not bad either! She was Gu Zheng’s wife. Even if Young Master Qin did not show Miss Qiao any respect, he had to show Gu Zheng some respect!
Just as everyone was feeling puzzled, Qiao Xi said unhurriedly, “Old Madam Kang, you keep saying that I’ve offended the boss of Fragrance Hotel, but no one’s stopping me from entering!”
Kang Ru’s and Old Madam Kang’s expressions instantly stiffened. At this moment, Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng were already standing at the door of Fragrance Hotel. The young man standing at the door to welcome the guests did not stop them and even bent down to greet Qiao Xi respectfully.
