Chapter 436: 436. Top-notch people gather together

He withdrew his gaze and took a seat beside Qiao Xu on the chair, only to find Xiao Yi and his daughter, Xiao Yingying, also sitting down on the chairs opposite them.

The sofas in the VIP room were arranged face-to-face, with a tea table placed in the middle.

Now that the Xiao father-daughter duo sat facing them like this, it seemed as if all four of them were part of the same group.

Qiao Xu felt nauseated whenever she saw the father-daughter duo, and when they sat down in front of her, Qiao Xu’s eyebrows immediately furrowed without any attempt to hide her displeasure.

Of course Xiao father-daughter duo saw the distaste on Qiao Xu’s face, but they pretended not to have noticed.

From the moment he left the Qiao family last night, Xiao Yi regretted that the business in Canada was all Qiao Chong’er’s.

He didn’t understand the business world, and at the same time, wanted to prove that he was with Qiao Chong’er not for her money.

So, when Qiao Chong’er never mentioned sharing her property with him, he never actively asked for it.

In his eyes, Qiao Chong’er’s feelings for him would be the reason she couldn’t leave him all her life, and there was no need for him to ask for her property, lest it backfire and change her impression of him.

He never expected Qiao Chong’er to divorce him so decisively. After the divorce, given Qiao Chong’er’s strong methods, he would definitely not get a single penny.

Not only would he not get a share of Qiao Chong’er’s property, but he might also be kicked out and have no place to live, even at the risk of losing his job.

After decades of living in luxury, the thought of going back to selling paintings on the street is not only unbearable, but he also couldn’t let go of his status and identity.

This morning, before returning to Canada, he was thinking about how to change Qiao Chong’er’s mind, only to bump into Qiao Xu at the airport.

Although he was not very familiar with his daughter, judging from yesterday’s old man’s attitude, Miss Qiao in the Qiao family still had a say.

By starting from her, there might be a chance.

For this reason, even though he noticed the exclusion in Qiao Xu’s eyes, he still stayed with a thick face.

"Cousin, Mr. Lu, where are you going?"

Xiao Yingying seems to have completely forgotten that she had had an unpleasant encounter with Qiao Xu yesterday, and her enthusiasm seemed to indicate that she and her cousin had a very close relationship.

Seeing Qiao Xu only giving her a sarcastic smile, she said after a few seconds: "Could you please change your seats?"

Xiao Yingying’s warm smile suddenly froze, and a touch of coldness flashed through her eyes.

"Xuxu, I am your cousin, my dad is your uncle, how can you be so rude? If outsiders see this, they will think our Qiao family’s children are not well-behaved."

Xiao Yingying’s tone carried a bit of dissatisfaction and condemnation, her eyes seemingly unconsciously drifting to Lu Moqing, who hadn’t even looked at her. It seemed like she intended those words for him to hear.

Seeing Qiao Xu’s eyebrows furrowing, her already not-so-good mood turned sour due to Xiao Yingying’s provocation.

Xiao Yi, on the other hand, was more tactful than Xiao Yingying, especially since he knew he was now asking Qiao Xu for a favor, so he quickly grabbed Xiao Yingying and scolded her softly:

"Yingying, how could you talk to Xuxu like that? Apologize at once."

With that, he gave her a meaningful look.

Xiao Yingying was somewhat unwilling but she could see that Lu Moqing frowned when she had accused Qiao Xu of having no manners; it was clear that he also disapproved of Qiao Xu’s action of shooing them away just now.
