Chapter 279: Chapter 279: You’re Right, I’m Mocking You

"What are you aiming for?" Qiao Xiang frowned as she looked at her.

Qiao Rui met her gaze, "You’ll find out later."

"Hah!" Qiao Xiang scoffed. "Isn’t it just for the Qiao Family? You want to be the heir to the Qiao Family, right?"

Qiao Rui was amused by her remark, "With the Qiao Family’s current mountain of debts, do you think being an heir is something glamorous?"

Qiao Xiang’s face clouded over, but she retorted coldly, "A dying camel is still bigger than a horse. The Qiao Family still has some real estate, which is still better than a country girl like you could ever be wealthy. You’ve never seen such wealth before, let alone owned it."

Qiao Rui’s smile remained, not angered in the slightest, but rather looking at Qiao Xiang with pity, as if looking at a rich pauper who only had money.

"Don’t underestimate it, there are some things you could spend a lifetime chasing and still never attain," Qiao Xiang said, visibly stung once more, her voice cold with seriousness.

Although she had never outmaneuvered Qiao Rui, she still didn’t want to concede in terms of spirit.

Qiao Rui nodded, "Indeed, spend a lifetime and still not get, like Pei Liyan for example."

"Are you mocking me?" Qiao Xiang was stunned, then her eyes took on a sharp look.

Qiao Rui nodded, "Yes, I’m mocking you. If it helps wake you up, it’s not a bad thing."

"I can’t beat you, but don’t think you can control me either," Qiao Xiang was not grateful.

"You really can’t beat me, but if I wanted to control you, you couldn’t escape," Qiao Rui said lightly, "However, I don’t deign to control you."

"You!" Qiao Xiang’s face flushed with anger, she had never been underestimated like this before.

Qiao Rui, a country girl with no background, dared to defy her audaciously.

"Do you think just because you married Pei Liyan and he supports you, you can do whatever you want and control me under his protection?" Qiao Xiang snorted coldly, "Can you stand on your own without relying on a man?"

Qiao Rui was again amused by her, feeling pity for Qiao Xiang.

"Big sister, for someone with a degree from a prestigious university, both your IQ and EQ are worrying."

Once again humiliated and demeaned.

Qiao Xiang instantly flew into a rage, unable to suppress the anger deep inside her, flames of fury shot from her eyes as she stared directly into Qiao Rui’s.

Despite being full of fury, she still managed to hold it back.

"Don’t you try to confuse me; my EQ and IQ are my business, not yours."

"That’s true," Qiao Rui said, "Never mind who I rely on, you can’t control me. So better keep quiet in future, or else you’ll be the one who ends up worse off."

Qiao Xiang really couldn’t stand Qiao Rui’s attitude, not deigning to put her in her eyes, her anger resurfaced, her eyes aflame, "What do you have to show off? Isn’t it just relying on Pei Liyan?"

Qiao Rui didn’t engage in a war of words, just smiled, looked at her again, and said, "Is this what you wanted to talk about?"

"Of course not," Qiao Xiang snorted.

Qiao Rui saw that she was still proud, still furious, still trying hard to suppress it, clearly a struggle.

She sighed, "Then what else is there?"

"This time you won because grandfather was on your side, but don’t think he is really on your side. He was just swayed by the capital," Qiao Xiang said coldly.

Qiao Rui smiled faintly, nodded seriously, "Yes, I agree with that. If I didn’t have any capital, he wouldn’t be so easy to talk to."

"You agree?" Qiao Xiang was surprised, taken aback by Qiao Rui’s response, but then scoffed coldly, "You think you’ve got a bargain, but the Qiao Family is a bottomless pit. Do you really think six billion plus eight billion can save it?"

"To be honest, I don’t think so," Qiao Rui said.

"Hmph, you country bumpkin, even if you are pretty, you lack knowledge," Qiao Xiang scoffed coldly, "Do you understand how capital works?"

Qiao Rui laughed. "I don’t understand."

"Ha!" Qiao Xiang sneered again, "You don’t understand anything, yet you want to enter the Qiao Family business, thinking it’s like selling vegetables in your village?"

"Yes, perhaps Pei Liyan has gone crazy." Qiao Rui sighed. "He gave me eight billion yuan to play around with."

"Did you say Pei Liyan sent you to take over this project at the Qiao Family?" Qiao Xiang widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Yes, the rich are the bosses." Qiao Rui remained indifferent. "Big sister, you don’t need to be so surprised, so shocked. If he hadn’t insisted, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in this messy situation."

"I think he really has gone mad," Qiao Xiang exclaimed again. "How could he do this?"

"You have to ask him about that; I really don’t know."

"Haha, so you wanted to embarrass me?" Qiao Xiang suddenly laughed sorrowfully. "He really is taking revenge on me."

"Taking revenge on you?" Qiao Rui found this notion quite novel.

"At this point, saying anything is meaningless. He just wants to take revenge on me," Qiao Xiang said bitterly. "He thinks I should have come back on the day of choosing my spouse, so he wants to embarrass me and leave me with nothing at the Qiao Family."

"Ah!" Qiao Rui sighed.

She really was too full of herself.

So full of herself that people didn’t even want to correct her anymore.

"Why are you sighing? You don’t believe me?"

Qiao Rui shrugged her shoulders. "I really don’t believe it much."

"Ha, I think you are just jealous."

"Are you talking about yourself, big sister?" Qiao Rui couldn’t be bothered to continue this conversation. "But people do tend to judge others by themselves."

"You don’t need to act so morally superior in front of me." Qiao Xiang sneered coldly. "You can’t accept the fact that he once liked me."

"Big sister, did he like you and sleep with you?" Qiao Rui suddenly countered.

Qiao Xiang’s face turned red, slightly annoyed, "Do you think sleeping together means liking each other?"

"Sleeping together doesn’t necessarily mean liking, but if you like someone and don’t want to sleep together, then that definitely means not liking," Qiao Rui finished and laughed. "Think about that slowly."

"Shut up!" Qiao Xiang said loudly. "I don’t want to discuss such private matters with you; only country folks like you would expose personal secrets in public."

"Ha, big sister, seems like you were the one who first mentioned his liking for you. You exposed a personal secret, and when I continued from there, you couldn’t handle it. Double standards really are quite troublesome."

Qiao Xiang’s face changed, she closed her eyes and tried to control herself.

After a long while, she said, "You think because you’ve caught me, without wiping me out completely, you expect me to be grateful? That’s impossible."

Qiao Rui remained silent.

Qiao Xiang added, "You and I, we can’t be sisters in this lifetime."

"You have spoken a lot of truths tonight," Qiao Rui nodded. "You’re right, we really aren’t sisters."

"You admit it then, you have never considered me as your sister, have you?"

"Of course, I’m just a country bumpkin, and you are a Qiao Family young lady. We are not the same kind, why pretend otherwise?" Qiao Rui replied with a smile.

"You, you’re also a hypocrite!"

Qiao Rui looked at her, half-seriously, "I am considering being a real villain. If I ever get unhappy, I might just release your scandalous photo for the whole world to admire your beauty."
