Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 126: Meet the Dragon King

"Qiao Chuchu thought she must have misheard and retorted in astonishment, "What does this have to do with my monthly salary? You two have poor abilities, your resumes aren't impressive, and there are plenty of people better than you. Giving you this amount already shows how much I’m willing to raise your pay, don't you think?"

Qi Xiaojia immediately tried to appease her, smoothing her arm, "You’re absolutely right, especially right. Miss Qiao, please don't be mad. Let me try to persuade my friend."

She tugged at Xia Xuechun’s sleeve, lowered her voice, and spoke earnestly, "Xuechun, let's agree. Having pride is important, but a good job is even more important. We can't afford to turn down money, and besides, we’ve signed contracts."

Xia Xuechun remained unmoved and instead coldly glared at Qi Xiaojia, "Qi Xiaojia, don’t you have any dignity? Don’t you have any self-respect? Don’t you have any dreams?"

Qi Xiaojia: "?"

Xia Xuechun looked at Qiao Chuchu with disdain, "Qiao Chuchu makes two hundred thousand a month, but she only gives us five thousand a month? Isn’t she blatantly looking down on us? She should be giving us ten thousand a month, right?"

Qiao Chuchu couldn’t help but laugh, "Ten thousand a month? Should I hire you two geniuses then?!"

She was really something else, as impossible to satisfy as an incredibly demanding relative.

Qi Xiaojia also felt frustrated with Xia Xuechun’s stubbornness, "Why don’t you know your own worth? You can’t even get this kind of offer from other companies. Just the other day, I interviewed with a company, and the HR offered me eight thousand!"

"And what about it?" Xia Xuechun raised her chin at Qiao Chuchu, speaking confidently, "If I say I’m capable, then I am capable."

Qiao Chuchu fell silent.

Qiao Chuchu raised her hand.

She suddenly clapped loudly, "Xia Xuechun, you really are a refreshing big fool."

She turned to leave.

Xia Xuechun called after her, "Wait, Qiao Chuchu."

As Qiao Chuchu turned around, a liquid splashed toward her!

What liquid?!

She instinctively dodged and stared at Xia Xuechun in horror.

Xia Xuechun was holding an empty champagne glass, her head tilted back like a proud rooster, "Don’t think you can insult me."

Qiao Chuchu snapped back to reality, her anger flaring instantly, "You think I insulted you? Fine!"

She grabbed the champagne from a nearby server and splashed it toward her!

One glass wasn’t enough, she threw three!

After the third glass, she threw one more!

Xia Xuechun didn’t even remember to retaliate, standing there stunned as she got drenched.

Qiao Chuchu soaked her into a drowned rat, threw the empty glass to the shocked server, and turned to leave.

A calm voice of an elder sounded from behind—

"Who bullied the life-saving benefactor of my grandson?!"

Qiao Chuchu turned in surprise, seeing a group of late guests entering.

At the center was an elderly man in a Zhongshan suit, walking steadily into the banquet hall.

Two well-dressed men flanked him, along with two elegantly dressed women.

Among them was a cute little boy held by a woman, who waved at Xia Xuechun.

Xia Xuechun was completely dumbfounded, "It’s him?"

Qi Xiaojia, curious, asked, "Who are they?"

Xia Xuechun replied, astonished, "I saved a little boy by the roadside the other day. He was almost hit by a car, and I saved him. I didn’t expect his grandfather to be such a big shot."

Qiao Chuchu frowned, looking at the old man with white hair.

The elderly man’s sharp gaze was now fixed on her.

Her mind was suddenly flooded with a series of strange images.

— The old man slapped her face, accusing her of lacking manners.

— The little boy's mother mocked her sarcastically, saying that even though she came from a noble family, she was not as strong as Xia Xuechun.

— The old man pointed at her nose and called her a bully, a worthless troublemaker.

— Xia Xuechun stood between these people, holding the little boy in her arms, grinning at her with smugness.

Qiao Chuchu snapped back to reality, feeling a chill run down her spine.

This family replaced the role of Lou Ting Si!

It was a new plot!

She watched the elderly man walk toward her, composed as he glanced at Xia Xuechun, "Miss Xia, are you alright?"

Xia Xuechun took the handkerchief the woman handed her and pitifully shook her head, "I’m fine. I’m used to it. Being bullied by her is nothing new."

Qiao Chuchu sneered, "Old man, I advise you not to meddle. She was the one who tried to pour the drink on me first. I was only fighting back."

The old man’s face darkened, "You dare say I’m meddling? How dare you speak to me like that?!"

He raised his hand to strike her!

Qiao Chuchu grabbed his hand and twisted it behind him, forcefully shoving him away!

The old man staggered, and his sons quickly helped him steady himself, looking at Qiao Chuchu in shock, "You have no manners! How dare you attack an elder!"

Qiao Chuchu calmly smiled, her hand behind her back, "No matter how much of a jerk I am, my brother never slapped my face."

Her smile vanished as she coldly added, "Who the hell do you think you are?"

The old man’s son stormed forward, "Apologize to my father!"

Qiao Chuchu threw him out with one hand!

The man flew three meters before skidding another two meters on the ground!

The guests in the banquet hall were stunned and began walking out: "Damn, Miss Qiao is fighting again!!"

"She’s a bit cool, huh? Isn't she an artist? She can fight too!"

A woman nearby screamed in pain, "Honey!"

She glared at Qiao Chuchu, "What are you doing?! You’re such a vulgar girl!"

Qiao Chuchu stepped forward, meeting her gaze, "Do you want me to throw you out too?"

The woman froze, her face turning ashen.

The elderly man, enraged, kicked at Qiao Chuchu!

She quickly sidestepped, stepping on his knee pit!

The old man knelt down!

She smoothly stood in front of him, bending over with a playful smile, "No need for ceremony!"

The old man’s face turned green with fury, attempting to rise.

But he trembled from the pain and couldn’t stand.

Qiao Chuchu looked down at him, her tone cheerful, "Osteoporosis and still so arrogant? You’ve got a lot of life left in you, old man. How many times have you survived so far?"

The old man’s son rushed to help him up, gritting his teeth, "You dare bully us? Do you know who we are?!"

Qiao Chuchu, intrigued, asked, "Who are you?"

The son, furious, answered, "We are from the Long family, my father is Long Wang!"

Qiao Chuchu raised an eyebrow, "Wow, that name is tougher than all your lives combined!"

The son: "?"

The daughter-in-law: "?"

Qiao Chuchu was even more amused.

She’d heard of the Long family. When Long Wang rose to prominence, many young people in the circle mocked his name.

The Long family wasn’t that impressive; just nouveau riche.

Qiao Chuchu felt confident, looking at the elderly man who couldn’t stand up, and triumphantly said, "If Long Wang kneels before me, then I must be his grandmother~"

The old man’s face turned pale, "What did you say?! Who do you think you are?!"

Qiao Chuchu smiled brightly and elegantly performed an ancient bow, "In response to Long Wang, I am the eighth miss of the Pei family, Qiao Chuchu~"

The old man: "?!"

The son: "?"

The daughter-in-law: "?"
