Chapter 252 - 237 Easy to Deal With?
Gu Qili sipped water calmly and Mu Shuoqian also drank from where she had just sipped, then turned his gaze towards the stunned crowd.
There had been no shortage of rumors about Mu Shuoqian within the Qi Family; since taking over, no scandals about him had ever been reported in major newspapers or magazines. The only news items were how his business achievements had skyrocketed like a rocket this year, and how he had won some entrepreneur award in Aus City yet again this year... Nearly all his news was overwhelmingly positive.
Rumor had it that Mu Shuoqian greatly disliked women, and that even his top executives were all male; not because he disdained women, but supposedly it was due to a condition.
Yet these rumors seemed rather fragile in front of this girl; the formidable CEO was actually seen playing shuttlecock at the door, even sharing the same bottle of water with her.
"Elder Qi, is there something you need?" Mu Shuoqian tightened the cap of the water bottle and feigned ignorance.
Qi Yexin suppressed his displeasure and smilingly said, "Shuoqian, this must be Miss Gu, right?"
Seeing the situation in front of her, Gu Qili guessed the intention of the Qi Family’s visit, but since Qi Yexin was an elder, she didn’t want to seem disrespectful, so she smiled at him: "Uncle Qi, hello."
"Oh, what a charming and lovely girl, I like this child very much," chuckled Qi Yexin, then suddenly turned his head and shouted angrily at Luan Yi who was hiding behind: "Yi, what are you spacing out for, why haven’t you apologized to Miss Gu yet?"
Everyone had noticed Gu Qili’s bandaged hand, knowing it was Luan Yi’s handiwork. Luan’s mother sneered internally but remained calm outwardly, while Qi Meihui was indifferent, having no energy to bother with Gu Qili or the Qi Family’s affairs.
Luan Yi was pushed forward from behind by Qi Chuan, stumbling slightly and almost fell in front of Gu Qili.
Gu Qili frowned slightly, her eyes barely concealing disgust. Even without definite proof, the grand presence of the Qi Family was enough to indicate that the snakebite incident was done by Luan Yi.
How much hatred must one hold to commit such malicious acts? Despite her beautiful appearance, her heart is so venomous. Gu Qili suspected she had read too many novels with schemes and conspiracies which twisted her personality.
