Chapter 804: Who Doesn’t Like Beautiful Women?
“Mengyan is indeed an internationally renowned perfumer. She’s too professional!”
Everyone was praising her when someone suddenly broke the peaceful atmosphere. “Mengyan, you probably don’t know yet, but… President Gu is already married.”
Xia Mengyan’s expression changed as if she had been struck by lightning. “He’s married?”
“Yes, his wife is called Qiao Xi. I heard that she’s related to your Xia family! She seems to be the biological daughter of your aunt, Xia Yunlou!”
Xia Mengyan reacted for a while. Qiao Xi was her aunt’s daughter?
Xia Yunlou was Old Madam Yin’s daughter. Back then, after Old Madam Yin and Xia Cheng got married, they gave birth to three children. After the two of them divorced, Xia Yunqiu and Xia Yunyi left with Xia Cheng. Only Xia Yunlou stayed in the Xia family.
Xia Mengyan’s father was Xia Cheng’s illegitimate child. He was also the only heir of the Xia family.
Although Xia Yunlou was Old Madam Yin’s daughter, she was very close to the illegitimate child and had nothing to do with the Yin family. Hence, the Xia family also knew that Xia Yunlou’s biological daughter had been found.
However, Xia Mengyan never expected that the daughter of the Xu family who had been missing for 20 years was Mrs. Gu. In that case, Mrs. Gu and she were considered sisters!
At this moment, everyone was discussing in low voices. “Qiao Xi is really lucky! Although she went missing when she was young and couldn’t grow up in the Xu family, she had an adoptive mother who doted on her and left her with a huge inheritance. Now, she’s married to President Gu and has become the supreme Mrs. Gu.”
At this moment, Xia Mengyan could not help but be a little nervous. She immediately picked up her phone and sent a message to her parents. The other party quickly replied: [Mengyan, don’t worry. The old master doesn’t like Qiao Xi, so the Xia family won’t acknowledge her. You’re the only daughter of the Xia family.]
Xia Mengyan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “I’ve been overseas all these years and haven’t heard anything about President Gu’s marriage. The two of them probably haven’t held a wedding yet, right?”
“That’s true! They’ve been married for so long but there hasn’t been a wedding. It looks like President Gu doesn’t like Mrs. Gu much either.” Everyone looked disdainful.
......
“I heard that even her biological mother doesn’t want to acknowledge Mrs. Gu. She relied on her face to get to where she is today. Before long, President Gu will lose his interest in her. She’ll be in trouble then!”
“That’s right. Only an independent woman like our Mengyan is worthy of an outstanding man like President Gu. This time, Mengyan will definitely become famous with the release of Lu Corporation’s new products. At that time, President Gu will naturally see how good you are!”
“I heard that Mrs. Gu will be coming too. What right does she have to come? She doesn’t know anything. She’ll just be a joke if she comes!”
Everyone laughed. “Mengyan is the trump card of Lu Corporation. Mrs. Gu is just a loser who depends on men. How can she be compared to Mengyan?”
Xia Mengyan had a proud expression. She wanted to see what Qiao Xi had to compare herself to her!
At this moment, someone shouted, “President Gu is here!”
Everyone immediately looked up. Xia Mengyan also looked at the door excitedly. Her eyes were filled with admiration, but they were immediately buried by cold hatred.
Gu Zheng was tall and exuded a n.o.ble and elegant aura. Qiao Xi was pet.i.te and cute. Her perfect face made everyone envious.
No wonder Gu Zheng, who had never been close to women, suddenly got married. No wonder Gu Zheng doted on Mrs. Gu so much.
“Mrs. Gu, you’re so beautiful!”
“To be honest, I think Mrs. Gu is much better-looking than Miss Xia. If I were President Gu, I would choose Mrs. Gu too! Who doesn’t like beautiful women?”
“Don’t spout nonsense! Miss Xia and President Gu have known each other since they were young. Moreover, you can’t just look at a woman’s appearance when she’s married to a virtuous man. Miss Xia is capable and knows how to make perfumes. Of course, she’s more outstanding than Mrs. Gu!”
On the other side, Lu Xiang’s expression turned cold. Why was Qiao Xi here?
She kept having the feeling that Qiao Xi was a very strange woman. Every time she encountered Qiao Xi, any plan would fail. Hence, she thought that an encounter with Qiao Xi was bad luck.
Lu Xiang immediately said nervously, “Ah Yan, quickly chase that woman out. We can’t let her in.”
Lu Yan looked at Qiao Xi who was not far away and instantly felt a sharp pain in his knee. His eyes were filled with anger as he immediately instructed his a.s.sistant in a low voice.
When the a.s.sistant heard Lu Yan’s instructions, his eyes were filled with disdain. However, he was well-trained and naturally would not expose himself in front of Lu Yan. Instead, he nodded and left.
At this moment, someone asked in surprise, “I keep having the feeling that I’ve seen Mrs. Gu somewhere before. Is she… the Xu family’s biological daughter who went missing for 20 years?”
