Chapter 1298: 1298 Being Generous

1298 Being Generous

When Lan Rong heard Qiao Xi say that she wanted to donate Scorching Heart, she was unable to control the flames of rage in her heart even more. She said sarcastically, “Although Wenxian was wearing a fake, the gift was given to her by Uncle He with kind intentions. It’s just that Uncle He was deceived. Whether it’s real or fake isn’t actually that important. The main thing is the sender of the gift. I don’t know where your necklace came from. Perhaps you stole it or got it from scamming someone!”

Qiao Xi grunted coldly.

“Wenxian, am I right?” Lan Rong was extremely proud as she went to He Wenxian to claim the credit. Her guess must be right. That woman was not worthy of having such a valuable necklace at all. She must have obtained it through inappropriate methods.

She said righteously, “Miss Qiao, actually, the owner of this necklace isn’t you, right?! If you brace yourself and donate it now, how will you explain it to the owner of the necklace later? I’ve never seen such a shameless person like you!”

He Wenxian’s lips were tense as she shook her head helplessly. The disdain in everyone’s eyes deepened as they looked at Qiao Xi in disgust.

If it was really as Miss He had said and this necklace did not belong to Qiao Xi but was only borrowed, then what right did she have to donate it? It was truly nauseating to be generous with the belongings of another just to boost one’s reputation.

He Wenxian said earnestly, “Xi Xi, Scorching Heart is really too precious. You really don’t have to donate the necklace for the sake of your reputation. Donating things depends on your ability. Even if you donate cheap things, no one will laugh at you.”

Qiao Xi was almost convinced by He Wenxian’s pretentious appearance. She had really met her match.

Lan Rong instantly became confident. “Wenxian is right! I advise you not to pretend anymore. If you donate someone else’s things, the true owners will come looking for you. It’ll be awkward if you can’t afford it. We just wanted to save you some dignity, so we didn’t expose you earlier. Do you really think we believe that you can have such an expensive piece of jewelry?

“Actually, I’m already giving you face by saying that you borrowed it. If you continue to fool around and we tell the truth, what right do you have to continue staying here?”

As soon as she finished speaking, footsteps came from the door. Then, a cold male voice sounded in everyone’s ears. “I want to hear the truth.”

The man’s voice was low with a trace of mockery and disdain. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall man in a custom-made suit slowly walking over.

When they got closer, everyone could see his face clearly. His eyebrows were resolute, and his light brown eyes were deep and cold. He had a high nose bridge, making him look like the work of God. What was even more shocking was that the kingly aura he exuded was noble and gentle, but it was also filled with an unapproachable aura.

Most of the guests had never seen the person in front of them, but they knew that the young man behind him was Gu Zheng’s personal assistant, Song Shijing.

It seemed obvious who the man who made Song Shijing follow him so respectfully was.

Everyone was dumbfounded, but Lan Rong had mixed feelings. Fear, joy, and shock surged into her mind. She explained while trembling, “S-She stole this necklace and even said she wanted to donate it. I…”

Lan Rong was so scared that she could not finish her sentence. The entire venue was silent. After a few seconds of silence, Gu Zheng sneered.

This sudden laugh made He Wenxian’s heart twitch, then beat violently.

What did Gu Zheng want to do? Even if he doted on Qiao Xi, he could not cause trouble at the He family’s charity banquet. Her father was Gu Zheng’s master. Although that was in the past, Gu Zheng had to show her father some respect no matter what. Moreover, Gu Zheng and her brother had been good friends for many years. Gu Zheng would not go too far!

Gu Zheng glanced coldly at everyone. In the end, his gaze landed on Qiao Xi, and his gaze instantly softened. Then, he looked sharply at He Wenxian.

“She stole the necklace?” he suddenly asked. His tone was calm, making it impossible to tell if he was happy or angry. However, Lan Rong felt that she was surrounded by a cold aura. She could not even breathe.

Under this man’s powerful pressure, she could not say a word. Before she could speak, she heard Gu Zheng’s cold voice. “He Wenxian, why didn’t you tell everyone who she is?”

He Wenxian’s body suddenly stiffened. It was as if a huge rock was stuck in her throat, and she
