Chapter 1882: 1882. Gu Xia Extra Chapter (84)

As the second young master of the Qi family, he didn’t need to please anyone. He was always fawned over when he was a child and even as he grew up, he didn’t have much need for emotional intelligence.

Furthermore, he was wholeheartedly devoted to scientific research, and everything else was dealt with by Qi Xiao. He didn’t need to meet anyone, which had resulted in his headstrong personality.

As long as he believed something was right, he wouldn’t compromise.

Even in any situation, if he had animosity towards someone, he would express his emotions without reservation, just like now.

He was originally reluctant to recognize Xia Yumo as his sister and held a grudge in his heart. However, he had come out of fear that his big brother would vent his anger on Miaomiao.

But after he came, whether he was willing to actively please this sister was beyond his big brother’s control.

At this moment, seeing Qi Miao so wronged, his resentment towards Xia Yumo only intensified, so much so that after greeting her, he sat down beside Qi Baiyan with a displeased face.

Qi Baiyan and Chu Peixian’s attention was focused on Xia Yumo, and they didn’t notice Qi Ming’s behavior, but Qi Xiao did.

His gaze suddenly turned cold, landing on Qi Ming’s calm face, his eyes deepening.

Then, without a change in expression, he shifted his gaze to Qi Miao, who was beside Chu Peixian. She had downcast brows and eyes, with tears still lingering in the bottom of her eyes, as if someone had wronged her greatly.

Seeing Qi Miao like this, Qi Xiao knew the origin of Qi Ming’s sudden change of face.

This woman was cunning and scheming, and just by showing a wronged expression, she didn’t need to do anything as someone would stand up for her injustice.

Only a fool like Qi Ming would be easily deceived by her.

No matter whether Qi Miao had been innocent in the past or not, he couldn’t allow such a person who tried to undermine their family relationship to stay in the Qi family anymore.

He didn’t want his sister, whom he had finally recognized, to be bothered by unnecessary trouble just because of this woman.

The coldness in Qi Xiao’s eyes increased, causing Qi Miao, who had been hanging her head, to shiver involuntarily and subconsciously look up at Qi Xiao.

At this moment, Qi Xiao had already withdrawn his gaze before Qi Miao saw him, so she didn’t see the cold and ruthless light gathering in the depths of Qi Xiao’s eyes.

The exchange at the entrance just now had made Xia Yumo feel closer to her family members.

Chu Peixian was both happy and a little at a loss, not because of nervousness, but because she didn’t know what attitude to adopt towards her daughter.

At this moment, the driver had already brought the gifts in, and Qi Xiao went over to take them. The driver then left.

Chu Peixian hurriedly took her gift from Qi Xiao’s hands. She took out a delicate and precious gift from the box, which itself cost tens of millions, and presented it to Xia Yumo, saying:

"Mo... Momo, this is the gift Mom has prepared for our first meeting. Open it and see if you like it."

As she said this, she looked at Xia Yumo expectantly, seeming fearful that she would refuse her.

It was generally impolite to unwrap gifts in front of guests, but Xia Yumo couldn’t bear to refuse when she saw Chu Peixian’s expectant eyes. So she took the gift with both hands and slowly opened it under everyone’s gaze.

It was a sapphire necklace that shimmered with brilliant light – deep, pure, and dazzling blue.
