Chapter 300 - Breaking A Sc.u.mbag"s Heart!
After a young cousin"s exclamation, everyone"s gazes landed on Gu Qiqi"s brooch
Under the noon sun, a pigeon egg pearl on the originally low-key brooch actually reflected a light pink diamond glow.
It was dazzling!
Gu Xuexue also covered her face and looked over.
When she saw the appearance of that brooch clearly, the sneer on her lips immediately turned to disbelief!
That pearl…
That supreme-grade pink pearl…
Wasn"t that the one that she and her mother saw in a famous store? It was worth 880,000. They couldn"t even afford it.
Back then, the staff said that it had been booked by an honorable guest.
She and Mommy were disappointed for a long time.
Later on, when she found out that a pearl cost 880,000 dollars, she finally gave up.
Anyway, she couldn"t afford it… Only a real princess of high society could afford it, right?
But now, she found out that this Deep Sea Pink Pearl had been bought by Gu Qiqi. How could she not be shocked?!
Weren"t those childish taunts from Gu Yuanyuan and her just now slapping their own mouths?!
Her face burned with pain.
It wasn"t because of Gu Yuanyuan"s slap, but because of Gu Qiqi"s invisible slap at this moment.
She also heard the gentle discussions of her cousin and the others.
"Big Sister Qiqi, this pearl is very rare. My Mommy couldn"t find it even after searching for a long time. It can be said to be top-grade. Also, can"t you guys tell that Big Sister Qiqi"s s.h.i.+rt is a particularly powerful brand for men"s clothing? Each piece costs about 100,000 dollars. I"m so surprised that they actually produced a female s.h.i.+rt. I want to imitate Big Sister Qiqi and buy a s.h.i.+rt dress. It feels so refres.h.i.+ng to wear it…"
"Oh, it turns out that Big Sister Qiqi has such good taste. We have eyes but can"t recognize a formidable person."
"That"s right. Big Sister Qiqi, can you teach us how to wear clothes too? Every time we attend a banquet, we wear short or long gowns. We"re so tired of wearing them!"
Seeing that everyone was gradually admiring and liking Gu Qiqi, Gu Xuexue and Gu Yuanyuan gnashed their teeth in anger.
But what was more heartbreaking was that Gu Qiqi said lightly in the face of everyone"s praise, "Actually, I"m not interested in dressing up because I think that the best decoration for a woman isn"t jewelry but her IQ!"
Wasn"t she clearly mocking them for being stupid?!
Gu Qiqi, you country b.u.mpkin. Are you sure that only you have IQ?
Gu Yuanyuan threw Gu Xuexue a look and ordered her to leave with her.
The two of them slipped out of the crowd and slipped to the door to welcome the guests.
Every relative who came to the banquet would leave a birthday gift at the door.
Butler Zhao was busy registering the gifts.
Seeing that the two ladies had arrived, he smiled and said, "Eldest Young Lady, Young Lady Xue Xue, what can I do for you?"
"What is Gu Qiqi"s birthday gift?"
"Let me check… It"s… an emerald Longevity Peach!"
"Yes, go ahead!"
Gu Yuanyuan had already seen the longevity peach placed by the table.
The transparent jade color and perfect shape was the one that Gu Qiqi spent a high price to buy at the jewelry store that day but she didn"t manage to buy it.
Gu Yuanyuan laughed coldly and instructed Gu Xuexue, "Hurry up and take it away!"
Gu Xuexue whispered, "Sister Yuan, are we going to… steal this longevity peach?"
Gu Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. "Could it be that you want to keep it and let that country b.u.mpkin be awe-inspiring in front of Grandpa again? Do you want to suffer like you did just now?"
Gu Xuexue rolled her eyes. "Of course not. Sister Yuanyuan, I have a better idea… Tell me, what kind of expression would Grandpa have if he tore open the gift in front of everyone later and found a broken longevity peach?!"
Gu Yuanyuan laughed sinisterly. "That expression must be priceless!"
