Chapter 645: Update 27
“…”
Everyone praised and complimented Xu Pingting. Mo Huan, who stood beside Xu Pingting, became the backdrop.
She didn’t feel good about it but didn’t show it.
Xu Pingting was happy to hear all the good things said about her, “Thank you all for your kind words. With Ms. Lu here, I don’t dare to call myself number one.”
“Aye~” People sighed deeply.
They were about to claim that Lu Zhixun was not better than her when they caught sight of Lu Zhixun’s brother, Lu Gechen. They changed their wording.
“I heard Ms. Lu is abroad right now? I won’t make drastic claims. I’ll just say that today, at this party, no other girl is better than Ms. Xu!”
Before Xu Pingting got the chance to savor that statement, someone chimed in, “I heard the granddaughter of the Qi family came to country Z. I bet she’ll come to a party like this?”
“Oh yeah! I heard that she’s very capable as well. She’s a writer, she races, and she knows martial arts.”
“The Qi and Jun families are ranked number one and two in the Capital Country. She’s the only granddaughter of the Qi family as well, which makes her status pretty irreplaceable.”
“I’ve never seen her photo but I did hear that she’s good-looking!”
There were some families here who didn’t do business with the Xu family so they commented fairly and objectively.
“Of course she is! Or else third young master Jun wouldn’t like her!”
Some girl burst out without thinking, “I heard she looks better than our fairy sisters here!”
Xu Pingting’s smile froze on her face as a gush of anger arose.
Mo Huan could sense her unhappiness and shouted, “What are you talking about?! Have you ever met that girl to praise her like that? You talk like she’s your ancestor! All of you only know to think highly of those who live abroad.”
“I’ve met that girl. Her face is pretty standard. There’s a saying though, your natural face is only 30% of it. 70% of it is how you care for yourself. She dresses like a country pumpkin and acts like a tomboy.”
“Though she’s the granddaughter of the Qi family, she grew up in the countryside and is a rough girl. The way she dresses, and her temperament, cannot be compared to someone who’s born wealthy. She doesn’t live up to her background.”
“Comparing her to our Pingting is an insult!”
“Someone like her likely doesn’t dare to come to a party like this! Everyone here was brought up to be elegant and educated. If she comes here, she would only embarrass herself!”
Lu Gechen, Lin Miao, and a few others shook their heads and exchanged glances. Women sure are scary when they’re jealous.
If it weren’t for Gong Yi, they never would’ve hung out around a girl like this.
Others here haven’t met Qiao Qing. and so they believed Mo Huan’s words.
In their minds, they pictured a poorly dressed girl who was quiet and unconfident. The image they had was not one of a wealthy daughter.
Someone questioned, “If she is as you described, why would someone like third young master Jun like her?”
“Who knows.” She sneered, “Probably likes her talent and her status. After all, she’s the God of Racing and is from the Qi family. Who wouldn’t want to marry someone who can grant them so much more power?”
