    Chapter Index

    As soon as Qin Ruicheng admitted it, the hall became uncharacteristically quiet. If a pin dropped on the floor, it would make a loud noise.

    It seems like this is a very disrespectful statement.

    The old lady waved her hand, and the bodyguard in black let go of Qiao Qiao.At the same time, someone offered glasses to the old lady. She slowly put them on and took a closer look at the petite and slender girl standing in the center of the restaurant.

    “The last name is Joe? Why don’t I remember any family with the last name Joe?”

    Qin Ruicheng: “Grandma, she——”

    The old lady glared at Qin Ruicheng calmly and powerfully: “I want to listen to her!”

    Qin Ruicheng had no choice but to swallow the rest of his words.

    Qiao Qiao secretly found it funny. Just now the eldest lady interrupted, but grandma didn’t even bother to give her a look and scolded her back with just a few words.Now it was Qin Ruicheng’s turn. Although he was also lecturing him, his tone sounded a little indulgent.

    Sure enough, I still love my grandson.

    Thinking of this, Qiao Qiao was no longer as scared as before, and bravely said, “Grandma, I don’t have a family, I’m just an ordinary person.”

    After thinking about it, she felt it would be better to be frank, so she briefly introduced her situation, where her hometown was, who else was in her family, what she was doing now, and even how much money she had in the bank.

    Of course, after she said that pitiful number, there was a roar of laughter in the hall.

    Qiao Qiao didn’t feel inferior at all and stood calmly and generously.She knew that the elders of the big family were all fine people, and the people in power at the level of the Qin family were even better. The best among the best. Maybe before the meal was finished, her resume and life would be laid out in front of the old lady. At this time, it would be stupid to hide or whitewash it for the sake of a little pity.

    After hearing this, the old lady turned the prayer beads in her hand silently for a while: “Eat first.”

    Qiao Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she had passed this test.Because with the power of the old lady, if she looked down on Qiao Qiao, she would not even be given the opportunity to attend the birthday banquet.

    Someone came over to lead Qiao Qiao back to his seat, but a female voice interrupted: “Grandma, she lied.”

    Qiao Qiao followed the sound and saw a girl she didn’t recognize, but she was sitting next to the eldest lady and she was also dressed very expensively. She should be Qin Ruicheng’s sister.

    The girl gave Qiao Qiao a cold look: “She said she was Ruicheng’s subordinate when she came here, why is she her girlfriend again now?”

    Dozens of faces turned to Qiao Qiao in unison. The grandmother in the seat remained silent and acquiesced to her granddaughter’s question.

    Qiao Qiao smiled: “If I didn’t say that, I might not be able to come today.”

    She rolled up her sleeves, and her forearms were covered with scratches: “I was tricked into entering the maze this morning, and it took me an hour to get out.”

    The old lady narrowed her eyes: “You mean the Qin family can’t even protect their guests?”

    “No.” Qiao Qiao put down his sleeves, “But it’s easy to dodge open guns and hard to avoid hidden arrows, so I have to be careful.”

    She took the opportunity to give Qin Ruicheng a comforting look. The man couldn’t sit still when he saw her wound.

    “Besides, a blessing in disguise is a blessing. Look, grandma.” Qiao Qiao held up the wreath, “I made it out of acacias, and the thorns were shaved off. It will look good on you!”

    The old lady raised her hand, and Uncle Zhou took the wreath and presented it knowingly. The old lady picked it up and looked at it. Uncle Zhou whispered: “It is indeed acacia. I will send someone to check.”

    “No, it’s all a matter for the juniors.” The old lady said calmly, “Since Ruicheng is the one who identified it, she must be capable of handling it.”

    Yes, this is beating her.

    Qiao Qiao smiled bitterly. In fact, it was a risky move for her to complain. After all, she was also a guest. Revealing this shortcoming in front of so many people in the family would definitely make the old lady unhappy.

    But she had no choice. She didn’t want to suffer this hidden loss. Besides, she would rather file a complaint than be thought to be disrespectful to her grandma and come late on purpose. If she complained, she would be saved, but her arrogance would not be cured.

    The servant led Qiao Qiao down. Her position was temporarily added next to a table of children. Sitting on her left was a fat man wearing overalls.

    The little fat man bit his fingers, followed Qiao Qiao with his eyes, and a smirk on his lips.

    Qiao Qiao has the biggest headache with children. Of course, if they can be as well-behaved and lovable as Zhou Yuanchuan’s nephew Yan Yang, she won’t be bothered by a hundred of them, but the little fat boy is obviously not the case.

    Qiao Qiao cautiously put away her skirt and sat down. She was cautious and did not sit down properly the first time, but made a posture to sit down.Sure enough, the little fat man suddenly kicked Qiao Qiao’s chair, causing the chair to fall down. If she had sat down stupidly, she would have landed on her butt loudly in front of everyone.

    When the little fat man saw that Qiao Qiao was still alive, he immediately became unhappy. He glared at Qiao Qiao fiercely and began to eat the food on the plate with a groan.

    Qiao Qiao ignored the glances from everyone, held up his chair and sat upright with a normal expression.

    The birthday banquet began, and everyone congratulated her on her birthday, which made the old lady’s serious face smile uncontrollably.She also prepared a set of priceless dzi beads for each grandchild. The little fat man also went up to receive them. Only then did Qiao Qiao know that he was the eldest wife’s son and Qin Ruicheng’s only brother.

    Except for those girls from other families and Qiao Qiao, everyone present was basically the Qin family, having a serious family dinner.The atmosphere was very relaxed and the meal was very lively. Qiao Qiao also got to eat a lot of things that she might not be able to eat in her life. It should have been a day where everyone was happy.

    ‘Click’.

    Qiao Qiao felt his head buzzing.

    For the thousandth time, the little fat man used the expensive caviar as paint. He put the ladle in and scooped out a lump, and then pushed hard with his fingers. The caviar on it would be shaken everywhere, splashing out an abstract painting on the table.

    The little fat man laughed. The painting in front of him was the largest, and Qiao Qiao was the closest to him, so the painting in front of him was second only to him.

    The people at the table seemed to be very aware of the little fat man’s temperament. They were already three feet away from him. Those who couldn’t hide did not dare to protest and could only silently speed up their eating.

    Qiao Qiao felt like he was about to burn.

    She tried her best to endure it, always remembering that this was the eldest wife’s son. She didn’t want to look at the monk’s face but the Buddha’s face… Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a chill on her right cheek, and when she touched it with her hand, she saw black caviar.

    !!!

    Damn it, do you know how expensive this thing is?!If you want to learn from Picasso, I won’t stop you, but Caviar did something wrong!If you don’t want to eat it, you can give it to me!

    Qiao Qiao forced a smile and “gently” took away the little fat man’s ladle: “Little brother, have you ever heard of a poem? ‘Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work’. A good boy can’t waste food.”

    The little fat man gave her a retarded look: “No way, do you think caviar grows from the soil?”

    Qiao Qiao took a deep breath and maintained her sweet voice: “Sister, I’m just making a metaphor, and caviar is also very expensive.”

    Little Fatty: “But I’m not as poor as you, auntie.”

    It seems that the balance she reported just now was also remembered by the little fat man.

    The little fat man was very proud of defeating Qiao Qiao, and he started to get worse.He dragged the whole smoked Spanish ham on the table in front of him, and then ordered the servant to cut it for him. While the servant was cutting it, he stuffed it into his mouth, but did not swallow it. He licked it and threw it away.

    Qiao Qiao was stunned.

    Except for her, everyone had a accustomed expression.Qiao Qiao couldn’t stand it anymore, and her heart was filled with huge frustration and frustration. The two emotions mixed into anger.She sadly thought that she had never eaten such delicious ham in her entire life, and this naughty child actually threw it away while eating it!

    This is not showing off, this is slapping her in the face!

    The little fat man reached out to grab something from the plate again, and Qiao Qiao couldn’t bear it and hit him hard on the back of his hand.

    “You dare to hit me?!” The little fat man raised his voice, rolled his eyes and started to smile evilly, “Just wait, I will let my mother take care of you.”

    After saying that, he flattened his mouth as if he was acting, and burst out crying.

    The eldest lady rushed over quickly, held her in her arms and yelled at her, the little fat man was thundering loudly and the rain was light, and he didn’t even shed a few tears, but it didn’t hinder him from achieving his goal at all.

    The little fat man pointed at Qiao Qiao: “She hit me!”

    Qiao Qiao didn’t want to argue, because it was useless to say anything at this time.

    She just watched the little fat man’s performance quietly.

    The eldest lady was very angry and scolded the servant: “How do you treat children? Can the young master be bullied by an outsider?”

    More and more people were looking here, and the old lady was also alarmed. She sat down and said calmly: “Children are quarreling, why are you, an adult, getting involved?”

    The eldest lady could only agree and returned to her seat bitterly.

    When the little fat man saw that his supporter was gone, he cried louder and asked his grandma to drive Qiao Qiao out.

    The old lady glanced at the table and understood what was going on, but she just said a few words in a nonchalant manner, obviously not wanting to care.

    However, Qiao Qiao saw some clues. The old lady didn’t seem to be satisfied with this grandson.

    No, in other words, what she is really dissatisfied with is the eldest wife’s doting education method?

    If that were the case, things would be easier to handle.
