Chapter 104: Our Cooperation Ends Here

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The employees outside the door were listening to the gossip. When they heard this, they were whispering to each other. The news spread like wildfire in the office. Soon, everyone in the company knew about it.

Xu Mei’s expression changed. She was not a fool. Although she did not know what the Meng and Qiao families had to do with the Gu family, Song Shiyu was defending Qiao Xi with every word he said. Why would he help Qiao Xi?

That made no sense. How could someone like Qiao Xi be related to Song Shiyu?

“Special Assistant Song, you might not know this, but Qiao Xi has a bad character and has done many wrong things. So this time, it must be her fault…”

Song Shiyu’s eyes were calm. “Although I’m not a big shot, I’m not someone just anyone can talk to. Madam Xu, you’re just a lowly mistress. You’d better keep a distance. I don’t want the air around me to be polluted.”

Xu Mei’s face alternated between shades of green and white. The words ‘lowly mistress’ were simply a humiliation.

Song Shiyu took a step back as if Xu Mei was a plague. His actions made Xu Mei break down. She could not even maintain the smile on her face anymore. Qiao Zhenguo had to remind her to calm her down. She should not say anything inappropriate.

Song Shiyu turned to look at Meng Xingzhou. “President Meng, since you didn’t keep your promise, I’m sorry to inform you that the collaboration between President Gu and the Meng family ends here.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Xingzhou’s phone rang. It was unknown what the other party on the other end of the line said, but Meng Xingzhou’s expression changed drastically. He glared fiercely at Qiao Xi before leaving in a hurry.


Qiao Zhenguo raised his hand and wanted to stop him, but Meng Xingzhou had no time to care. As he watched Meng Xingzhou leave, Qiao Zhenguo’s body swayed.

The reason why Qin An was here was that he heard that Qiao Zhenguo had called Qiao Xi to come over. He was afraid that their family’s sixth sister would be bullied. He did not expect to meet Song Shiyu downstairs…

Now that everything was settled, he smiled slightly. “President Qiao, forgive me for not agreeing with your attitude when it comes to handling things. Hence, there’s no need for our collaboration to continue.”

Qiao Zhenguo panicked. “President Qin, you—”

Qin An interrupted him. “There’s no need to explain. I have some grudges with the Meng family. This time, you helped the Meng family frame your daughter, making me suspect that if there are any conflicts between me and the Meng family in the future, you’ll not hesitate to help the Meng family deal with me. We’re all businessmen, so benefits are everything. President Qiao, I’ll take my leave first.”

“President Qin, it’s a misunderstanding. This is all a misunderstanding!” Qiao Zhenguo did not expect Qin An to have a grudge with the Meng family. What was going on?! He staggered as he chased after Qin An. Earlier, the Meng family had threatened him that if he did not get Qiao Xi to apologize, they would revoke their important collaboration. Now that the Meng family had lost so much of their dignity, their collaboration was certainly doomed.

Just as the Meng family was in trouble, Qin An wanted to withdraw his investment and cut off all ties with them. Why? Why was all of this happening?! Qiao Zhenguo could not understand. As he watched Qin An walk farther and farther away, Qiao Zhenguo could only blame everything on Qiao Xi.


It was all Qiao Xi’s fault! It was all Qiao Xi’s fault!

If Qiao Xi had just gotten framed by Miss Meng and shouldered the blame during the banquet, there would not be so many terrible things happening now. Xu Mei had the same thoughts as him. Everything started because of Qiao Xi.

When she thought about this, she could not help but look at Qiao Xi.

Ever since Qin An and Song Shiyu appeared, Qiao Xi had been standing there silently. Her face was the same as before, so beautiful that it made others envious. However, for some reason, Xu Mei felt that something was different.

The current Qiao Xi was not someone they could control anymore.

No… How was this possible?! Qiao Xi, this country bumpkin, was deliberately raised to be a good-for-nothing. How could she possibly have the ability to toy everyone around?!

Her impression must be wrong. Qiao Xi was still the same Qiao Xi, the Qiao Xi who was under her control!

After Song Shiyu left with Qiao Xi, Qiao Zhenguo slammed the table in anger. “This damned jinx! She’s a jinx!”

Xu Mei pretended to wipe her tears. “Zhenguo… I’ve been struggling to understand something. You said that Qiao Xi’s reputation in high society is not too good and she has never been liked by others, but why is Special Assistant Song on Qiao Xi’s side this time? And President Qin too. They seem to be quite close to Qiao Xi…”

Qiao Zhenguo slowly calmed down. “Yes, you’re right. We know Qiao Xi’s reputation very well.. Song Shiyu and Qin An are both dragons and phoenixes among men, so why would they help Qiao Xi?”
