Chapter 165: The Villain Complains
“Miss Shen, how’s my cooking?” Gu Zheng asked gently.
Shen Ying did not dare to chew and swallowed it forcefully.
“Delicious…”
Gu Zheng raised his brows and smiled lightly. “Miss Shen, you have good taste. Unfortunately, Qiao Xi doesn’t like it.”
Shen Ying gritted her teeth and picked up her chopsticks with trembling hands.
The expression on her face was between a smile and a look of awkwardness before she finally grimaced.
“I like anything made by Brother Gu Zheng.”
She would bear with it. At least she was more sensible than Qiao Xi.
Shen Ying forced herself to take a bite, and Gu Zheng smiled. In the end, Shen Ying unknowingly became stuffed.
Qiao Xi’s eyes widened. Shen Ying looked so frail, yet she had eaten two or three plates of food.
Gu Zheng smiled and nodded. “Miss Shen seems to like my dishes a lot, so don’t waste them. We’re full, so we’ll head upstairs first.”
After he finished speaking, he held Qiao Xi’s hand and left.
Qiao Xi: “…”
Gu Zheng’s methods of dealing with women like Shen Ying were simply admirable!
Gu Zheng smiled calmly and sent a message to Song Shiyu: [Take care of the man who bullied my wife!]
Song Shiyu replied immediately.
He must be tired of living to dare to bully Mrs. Gu!
On the other side, Fan Wenyuan’s phone suddenly rang. His face was pale. “I’ve invested so much money and energy. Why would I suddenly cancel it?”
The man’s disdainful voice came through the phone. “Mr. Fan, you’d better think about what you’ve done wrong!”
Fan Wenyuan had taken out all his savings to host an exchange meeting on translation. He had even invited celebrities from abroad. It was set to be held in two days.
Fan Wenyuan suppressed the anger in his heart. “I don’t remember what mistake I made. Please tell me!”
The man on the other end of the line also said with some trepidation, “Young Master Gu’s assistant called to inform me. You should know better!”
Young… Young Master Gu?
Fan Wenyuan’s legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
When did he offend Young Master Gu?
But… Young Master Gu was a board member of Li City University.
Did Young Master Gu feel that he had wronged Qiao Xi and unnecessarily made a big deal out of it, which affected the university’s reputation so he did this to deal with him?
That was it!
Qiao Xi, this scourge!
He could not let Young Master Gu hate him. He had to push the blame to Qiao Xi.
This way, not only would he be able to annihilate Qiao Xi but he would also be able to tell everyone that the one who destroyed the reputation of the university was Qiao Xi. It had nothing to do with him.
…
The next day.
Qiao Xi got up and went downstairs. She couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Shen Ying?”
The butler answered, “Miss Shen suddenly vomited and had diarrhea last night. She might have caught a cold, so she was sent back to the Shen family.”
Qiao Xi looked up at Gu Zheng. “…”
Did she catch a cold?
She must have been poisoned!
Gu Zheng’s cooking was comparable to a biochemical weapon!
Shen Ying would probably never come to the Longwan Residential again.
She vomited and had diarrhea in Gu Zheng’s house before being sent home. This wasn’t something that should happen to a great beauty!
If word got out, where would she put her status as the daughter of the Shen family?
“Young Madam.” The butler suddenly asked, “I heard that you guys had dinner together last night. Perhaps Miss Shen ate something bad. What did you guys eat?”
Qiao Xi had an embarrassed expression and couldn’t help but look at Gu Zheng.
She couldn’t possibly say that there was something wrong with his food in front of Gu Zheng, so she organized her words. “We just ordered some takeaway. Miss Shen isn’t feeling well, so she didn’t eat much. Look, both of us are fine.”
The butler nodded. “How could you eat takeout? In the future, don’t order from that restaurant anymore. The food is so bad! It seems that just about anybody thinks that they can be a chef now. Miss Shen’s body is weak, so she got sick. Luckily, Young Madam and Young Master are fine.”
“…” Gu Zheng pursed his lips tightly. Should the butler’s salary be reduced?
Qiao Xi had just sat down and was waiting for breakfast when her phone rang.
“Third Brother?”
“Little Six, something happened! Fan Wenyuan posted something on Weibo!”
Fan Wenyuan? What was he up to again?
After Qiao Xi hung up the phone, she opened Weibo and saw countless messages.
She clicked on that Weibo post and sneered.
This Fan Wenyuan was really complaining!
[Fan Wenyuan: During the translation test held by Li City University, a student openly cheated. After I pointed it out, she apologized to the whole university. Since she admitted her mistake, I gave her a chance to retake the test. I also personally set the questions to ensure the fairness of the exam.
[However, not only did this student not repent but she stole the questions when no one was paying attention and still cheated!
[She cheated twice! Unacceptable!]
The first comment: [I’m a student of Li University. I did hear that girl apologize. It seems that she really cheated.]
[Qiao… what?]
