Mr. Gu, my wife has blocked you.

Qiao Ruoxing...

"Anyway, you'd better be more careful."

Just as he was talking, the entrance door opened.

Lin Shu filed in with several people, each holding two or three sets of gowns wrapped in dust covers, and they lined up in the living room.

"Madam, Mr. Gu has chosen the dress for you. See if you like it. If you don't like it, I'll find someone to adjust it."

Qiao Ruoxing...

Tang Xiaoxiao opened her mouth into an "O" shape, "This is how your family chooses dresses?"

Qiao Ruoxing pressed her temples, feeling a little headache, "Lin Shu, today is Song Jiayu's birthday, do you think it's appropriate for me to dress like this?" Isn't this stealing the limelight?

Lin Shu was also helpless, "I reminded Mr. Gu, but Mr. Gu said that publicity is your style, and he asked me to bring all your jewelry over and let you choose dozens to wear."

After saying that, he asked the people behind him to open the boxes they were carrying. They were filled with dazzling jewelry.

Qiao Ruoxing...

Tang Xiaoxiao's "O" became a little bigger, and then she closed it manually.

She turned to Qiao Ruoxing and asked, "Have you always dressed up like this when attending banquets?"

Qiao Ruoxing was speechless.

She used to be young and naive, and she would dress so exaggeratedly and be so jeweled, mainly to annoy those who gossiped behind her back and deliberately make them angry. Now she has matured, okay?

On the other hand, Gu Jingyan grew upside down and became more childish.

"I won't wear these. You call Gu Jingyan and ask him to take them away. I can just choose something from the closet."

Lin Shu said, "Madam, why don't you call Mr. Gu? He won't listen to what I say."

Qiao Ruoxing had no choice but to pick up her phone and dial Gu Jingyan's number.

As soon as the call was connected, Gu Jingyan asked, "Have you chosen the dress?"

"I don't wear a dress."

Gu Jingyan said, "Everyone will wear a dress at the birthday party, and you have to wear it too. This is etiquette."

"Why don't I wear the one you gave me? Why should I dress up like a peacock for someone else's birthday? You idiot!"

The people in the studio brought by Lin Shu were all stunned.

stupid...

Mr. Gu from Jiang Sheng, who dares to say that?

This woman is too courageous!

Lin Shu looked indifferent.

Even if he didn't buy these dresses, just borrowing them would cost a lot of money. If his wife knew about them, she would probably scold him at his bedside for three days and three nights with a loudspeaker.

He's just an idiot, that's an understatement.

Gu Jingyan said, "Even if you are wrapped in a sack, you can still attract other people's attention. Others' clothes complement people, and you are people's clothes."

Qiao Ruoxing...

This guy...where did he learn to be so glib?

"Wear whatever the occasion. I definitely don't want others to dress better than me at my birthday party. It's better to be low-key and don't make me hate you."

Gu Jingyan curled his lips, "Then let Lin Shu give you a few more simple and elegant ones to choose from."

Just when Qiao Ruoxing was about to refuse, she heard Gu Jingyan say, "If your brother knew that I was reluctant to buy you a dress, he would hate to see me even more."

Qiao Ruoxing had no choice but to swallow her words and reluctantly agreed.

Lin Shu acted quickly and immediately replaced a batch of new ones for Qiao Ruoxing to choose from.

Qiao Ruoxing chose a white Chinese-style modified cheongsam from a dozen dresses with mid-length sleeves. It wouldn't be too cold to wear on this day. There were light ink paintings on the skirt, which was fresh and elegant.

After getting up and not talking, I really felt like a lady from ancient times who had poems and books in her belly and a temperament like orchid.

She turned around twice in front of the mirror and suddenly said, "The butt looks so big."

people...

Tang Xiaoxiao said speechlessly, "Can you shut up and let me admire your skin?"

----

Bai Huizhu came out of the police station with a dejected face.

Qiao Siyao's car was parked not far away, waiting for her.

After getting in the car, Qiao Siyao hurriedly asked, "Mom? How are you?"

Bai Huizhu said with a sullen face, "I said that when all the children's physical examination results come back, the school will be ordered to be cancelled, and they will never be able to engage in the education industry."

"Then the second aunt..."

Bai Huizhu said coldly, "If she hadn't been greedy for that little money, why would I be like this? She deserves it!"

Qiao Siyao shut her mouth.

After a while, he whispered, "Mom, Qiao Ruoxing, this bitch, donated this land and house. She had no intention of taking it in the first place, just to make it difficult for us."

Bai Huizhu frowned, her mind quickly ran through the recent events, and murmured, "What on earth does she want to do? Why is she always targeting me?"

Something seemed to flash in her mind, and just as she was about to grab it, her phone rang suddenly, interrupting her thoughts.

She glanced at her phone. Not many people knew this number, so she thought about it and pressed the answer button.

"Which one?"

"Mrs. Qiao, congratulations on getting your wish."

A hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone. The other party couldn't help but cough a few times as he spoke.

Bai Huizhu froze, then opened the car door and walked out.

Qiao Siyao was a little surprised by Bai Huizhu's behavior. She actually answered someone's call behind her back.

Bai Huizhu walked to a place where no one was around before speaking again, "You didn't make a special call to say congratulations, did you?"

The person on the other end of the phone laughed twice and said, "There are other things I want to talk to Mrs. Qiao about."

"Do we have anything else to talk about? I haven't treated you badly these years, have I?"

"Mrs. Qiao, it's meaningless for you to say that. I've kept your dirty things secret for you for a long enough time, including He Yurou's medication for depression, the truth about her miscarriage, her car accident, and the fact that you faked that My identity as a male prostitute...anything is enough to put my life on the line, am I not being strict about it?"

Bai Huizhu's face suddenly turned ugly. She clenched her phone tightly until her fingertips turned white. It took a long time before she said hoarsely, "What on earth do you want to do?"

The man smiled again, "It's nothing, I'm sick, and I want to 'borrow' some money from Mrs. Qiao to see a doctor."

Money again!

Bai Huizhu calmly asked in a low voice, "How much?"

"200."

Bai Huizhu's eyelids twitched, "200 million? Do you think I am a money printing machine?"

"Two million, for Mrs. Qiao, it's just a drop in the bucket."

"Not that many, at most one hundred thousand."

The man's voice deepened, "One hundred thousand? Are you sending it to beg for food?"

Bai Huizhu was a little angry, "I'm tight on money right now. I don't have that much. I've transferred a lot to you over the years, right? We already talked about settling it last time, and this [-] is purely my humanitarian help."

"That's your business. I'm going to have surgery."

Bai Huizhu said with a dark face, "I don't have 200 million, where can I get you 200 million?"

"That's your business," the other party paused and sneered, "I remember that the Qiao family also has an eldest daughter who is married to the richest man in Jiangcheng. If you really don't have it, then I'll go find her and ask for it. The little secret she knows should be worth more than 200 million, right?"
