From Runaway Bride to Global Queen

Chapter 125: Chapter 125 Have You Had Enough Trouble?

Several people went up to the stage one by one, and soon it was Qiao Yi’s turn to speak.

Although she had reassured herself countless times, Qiao Yi still couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous once on stage.

There were quite a few people paying attention to Qiao Yi; everyone wanted to know what made the president of LQ treat her specially, instead of their own daughters.

In any case, regardless of their thoughts, they were all very curious about Qiao Yi, the legendary heroine.

Scrutinizing gazes fell on Qiao Yi, the more nervous she was, the clearer her mind became.

People say practice makes perfect, and Qiao Yi feels she had reached that stage now.

Despite her mind being cluttered with all kinds of thoughts, after countless rehearsals, she managed to deliver the speech slowly and completely.

Only after Qiao Yi left the stage did sparse applause break out in the venue.

However, these were unimportant, what was important was that Qiao Yi had finally completed her task, what followed was not for her to worry about.

As to whether she would be chosen, Qiao Yi had done her best, and the rest was up to LQ.

Relaxedly returning to her seat, Qiao Yi seemed very excited, even beginning to plan what special treat to have for lunch.

“Thank you all for coming, I now announce, the domestic partner chosen by LQ International is, Qiao Group!”

Qiao Yi was still discussing where to go for lunch with her assistant when suddenly a spotlight caught her off guard.

What’s going on?

It took half a minute for Qiao Yi to react with a reminder from her assistant, and quickly stood up smiling and nodding to the people around.

Luckily, everyone took Qiao Yi’s distraction as overwhelmed excitement, otherwise there would definitely be some children unable to accept it and crying on the spot.

During their hard competition, Qiao Yi was thinking about what to eat for lunch, absolutely outrageous!

This time, no one could say Qiao Group ascended by nepotism anymore, Qiao Yi’s speech and Qiao Group’s proposal clearly told them, Qiao Group earned this qualification through their own capabilities!

The contract was signed on the spot, and after Qiao Yi signed her name, she looked up and met Yan Xiyu’s meaningful gaze.

Qiao Yi felt shivers down her spine from his strange look, is this man… sick?

Noticing the implication in Qiao Yi’s eyes, Yan Xiyu’s smile stiffened.

This woman and Lu Yanchuan both really make one want to start a fight!

After the signing ceremony, Qiao Yi and her assistant left the venue and returned to the Qiao Family.

Qiao Benqing had already received the news of the successful signing earlier and laughed heartily when Qiao Yi returned.

“Great! That’s fantastic! Let’s go out to eat! To Du Yanxuan!”

Qiao Benqing was in great spirits and directly gave all the house servants a half-day off, leading the whole family to the most luxurious private restaurant in Capital City.

When Qiao Xin returned, she found an empty house; there was not a single person, even the maids were gone.

After calling Zhao Wenjing, Qiao Xin found out they had all gone to celebrate!

The whole family went, Luo Xu went, the assistant went, even Qiao Qiao, who was working at the company, had been called back to join, only she had not been informed!

Qiao Xin could hardly suppress her anger, throwing her phone harshly.

They really went too far! Way too far!

When Qiao Family returned it was already past four in the afternoon, Qiao Xin stood at the doorway waiting, until Qiao Yi drove back home with the family.

“Xinxin? What are you doing here?”

“This is my home, why can’t I be here? Am I not allowed to come home? Or do you no longer consider me part of the Qiao Family!”

Qiao Xin’s face was expressionless as she looked at the few people getting out of the car, her face even carrying a hint of mockery.

“Qiao Yi! How can you talk to your mother like that!”

“Am I not speaking the truth!”

Qiao Xin’s anger, accumulated over the entire afternoon, finally erupted as she glaringly reddened eyes stared at the people in front of her as if they were her enemies.

“You all go out having a great time together, am I just a spare part in this house!”

“You are willing to take Luo Xu out, even the special assistant and servants, just not me!”

“Am I not your child! Don’t I have the Qiao surname!”

Qiao Xin was crying and screaming, standing alone in front of the Qiao Mansion facing the neatly arranged family, her heart filled only with hatred at this moment.

“Qiao Xin, have you caused enough trouble.”

Qiao Yi stepped forward, walked up to Qiao Xin, and when Qiao Xin angrily charged at her, Qiao Yi slapped her across the face.

“This slap is for your disrespect towards our parents!”

“Slap!”

“This slap is for your selfishness!”

“Slap!”

“This slap is for creating problems out of nothing!”

After three slaps, one side of Qiao Xin’s face was completely swollen. Qiao Yi moved her wrist, bent down, and grabbed Qiao Xin by the collar, pulling her up.

“Qiao Xin, think about it yourself, how often have you participated in the family activities from your childhood? It’s either too childish or too boring for you. You would rather have afternoon tea with so-called famous friends than go on outings with mom and dad!”

“Now you come up with complaints that the family went out without you, what? Do we all have to beg you like dogs to be treated like a member of the Qiao Family!”

“You don’t deserve to be a member of the Qiao Family!”

Qiao Yi let go of Qiao Xin’s collar, turned around, and helped Qiao Benqing and Zhao Wenjing into the house, not even glancing at Qiao Xin as they passed by.

Luo Xu, unable to stand by anymore, wanted to come over and help Qiao Xin up, but was stopped by Qiao Qiao.

“Xu, it is indeed the eldest sister’s fault this time. You were abroad and didn’t know what happened after. She… she really was in the wrong.”

“But still, she and Yiyi are blood sisters!”

Qiao Qiao didn’t idle talk with Luo Xu; Qiao Yi didn’t like him discussing past matters with others. Naturally, Qiao Qiao wouldn’t be more talkative with Luo Xu, only saying that Qiao Xin brought it upon herself and dragged him into the house.

“Mom and Dad, don’t be angry.”

Qiao Yi poured water for the couple and it took a while to calm their mood.

“Back then…”

“Dad, I volunteered back then; it has nothing to do with you.”

“Ah… you’re a good child, dad always knew, but I didn’t expect Xinxin to turn out like this.”

Qiao Benqing and Zhao Wenjing looked very disappointed, Qiao Yi coaxed them upstairs, and when Qiao Yi came down, she saw Luo Xu and Qiao Qiao sitting on the sofa downstairs, not looking at each other as if they had argued.
