1545 Soak A Little Longer And Wash The Dirt Off Your Body

“Miss Kang, stop pretending.” Qiao Xi was just about to leave when she suddenly stopped in her tracks and chuckled. “This is the Gu family’s backyard. Without the Gu family’s permission, outsiders won’t be able to enter. Who are you pretending for?”

Kang Qingzhi’s expression froze.

Qiao Xi stood at the side and sized up the disheveled Kang Qingzhi. She said with a smile, “Miss Kang, since you like the fish pond so much, why don’t you soak in it for a while longer to wash the dirt off your body?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xi walked away elegantly in her high heels.

Kang Qingzhi looked at her back with bloodshot eyes and a ferocious expression.

Qiao Xi left just like that? She was actually so arrogant?

Kang Qingzhi clenched her fists. If she climbed ash.o.r.e and ran out to say that Qiao Xi was the one who pushed her down, no one might believe her. However, if she continued to stay in the pond, she did not know when someone would save her.

B*tch!

Qiao Xi returned to the front hall. The guests gradually took their seats, and the banquet was about to start.

Gu Yao went to her side and asked curiously, “Qiao Xi, have you seen Kang Qingzhi?”

Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows and did not answer.

Gu Yao lowered his voice. “I saw her just now. Why did she disappear in the blink of an eye? Is she preparing to frame you again?!”

Qiao Xi glanced at him, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. Gu Yao instantly widened his eyes and asked in horror, “Why are you looking at me like that? Has Kang Qingzhi already attacked you?”

Just as Gu Yao was looking worried, Qiao Xi said with a faint smile, “Kang Qingzhi is in the fish pond in the backyard.”

Gu Yao had a confused expression and did not understand Qiao Xi’s words. Before he could ask, Qiao Xi explained with a smile, “I pushed her into the fish pond in the backyard. Why don’t you get someone to fish her out? It won’t be good if news of her soaking in the pond gets out. It’ll make outsiders think that we didn’t treat her well.”

Gu Yao: “??”

Hearing Qiao Xi’s words, he was stunned for a few seconds, then he widened his eyes and looked around. He lowered his voice and asked, “d.a.m.n! You really pushed her into the pond? Kang Qingzhi is Grandma’s savior. This… She’ll definitely look for trouble with you this time and publicize that you bullied her!”

Qiao Xi was really a ruthless person! She pushed the guest into the pond with just a word. Although the fish pond was not deep, it could still make Kang Qingzhi suffer a little. Even if Kang Qingzhi was not Grandma’s savior, it would be a big problem if others found out that Qiao Xi pushed a guest into the fish pond!

Gu Yao’s face was filled with worry. Qiao Xi thought that he was afraid that this matter would have a negative impact on the Gu family, but the next second, she heard Gu Yao say in a low voice, “Let’s not fish her out first, alright? No one is paying attention to her anyway. Let her soak in the pond for a while longer. We’ll talk about it when others notice her, lest they suspect you.”

Qiao Xi: “…”

Before Qiao Xi could speak, Gu Yao made the final decision. “Let’s do it this way! We’ll let her suffer a little.”

Ten minutes after the banquet began, someone ran to Gu Yao’s side and whispered about finding Kang Qingzhi in the fish pond. He hurriedly stood up and said in shock, “What? Quickly get her out!”

The a.s.sistant: “…” ‘You don’t have to be so deliberate!’

Kang Qingzhi stayed in the fish pond for half an hour before she was fished out. It was early autumn now, and the temperature dropped very quickly at night. Coupled with the fact that she was only wearing a thin dress, her face was turning green from the cold. She crossed her arms and trembled.

Everyone in the banquet hall was talking and clinking gla.s.ses. It was very lively.

Kang Qingzhi was wearing a black suit jacket. Her hair was wet and stuck to her face. Her face was pale, and her round eyes were red. She pursed her lips tightly as if she was trying her best not to cry. It made one pity her.

“Ah! What’s wrong, Miss Kang?”

“Why is she all wet?!”

When Kang Qingzhi saw Qiao Xi behind everyone, she was instantly terrified to the point her entire body trembled. However, she forced herself not to leave and looked aggrieved but strong. “Mrs. Gu, why did you do this to me?”

Mrs. Gu?

Everyone looked at Qiao Xi. Kang Qingzhi meant that the person who caused her to be in such a sorry state was Mrs. Gu.

Qiao Xi stood on the spot and said with a smile, “Miss Kang, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Kang Qingzhi had been soaking in the water for half an hour, and monstrous anger had acc.u.mulated in her heart. However, in front of everyone, she had no choice but to suppress her anger. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said with a sobbing tone, “Mrs. Gu, I know you hate me, but this is Old Madam Gu’s banquet. Even if there’s a huge grudge between us, you can’t bully me at the banquet. Moreover, you pushed me into the fish pond. If I hadn’t known how to swim, I might’ve choked to death. You’re clearly committing murder!”
