“However, Miss Tang has a good temper and isn’t willing to bicker with Qiao Xi because she doesn’t want to ruin Qiao Xi’s reputation. If it were anyone else, who would be able to take this lying down? Miss Tang is already so tolerant, yet Qiao Xi doesn’t know how to repent and hasn’t apologized to Miss Tang until now!

“Miss Tang treats her as a friend, but because of jealousy, she stole Miss Tang’s ancient zither. When everyone is scolding her online, she’s hiding at home like a coward. Moreover, I’m guessing that her original intention isn’t to snatch the ancient zither but to stand on stage to receive the award in Miss Tang’s place!”

Boom—

The entire venue was in an uproar. No one expected the truth to be like this. As Miss Tang’s friend, it was fine that Qiao Xi played tricks behind her back, but she actually wanted to stand on the podium in her place?

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Ruge covered her face and cried. Her faint sobs made one’s heart ache. The netizens in the live-stream also posted comforting comments.

[Fu Sheng is crying so pitifully! She’s crying over her lost friendship. After all, she finally found out that her good friend of so many years is such a scheming woman. No one can accept this!]

[She clearly knows that Qiao Xi has done so many bad things, yet she still wants to save Qiao Xi’s reputation. Qiao Xi is the famous designer, Gu Shan. If such a scandal were to spread, who would still wear the clothes she designs in the future?]

Xu Da’s face was filled with disdain. “Even at a time like this, she’s still unwilling to return the ancient zither to Miss Tang. A person like her isn’t worthy to be a designer at all!”

Tang Ruge slowly looked up. Her eyes were swollen, making everyone present sigh.

She tried her best to calm herself down. She wiped her tears and smiled gently. “It doesn’t matter if she comes or not. I don’t want to bicker with her either. I hope everyone won’t make things difficult for her. No matter what, she’s my friend. We’ve known each other for so many years. I don’t want her reputation to be ruined in the end.”

Then, Tang Ruge waved her hand. “Mr. Xu, let’s start the award ceremony.”

Xu Da was still indignant. “This kind of woman is actually a chief designer. She’s wild just because she’s a little smart. She’ll pay the price sooner or later!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the banquet hall slowly opened. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a slim figure standing at the door. The woman had a curvaceous figure and was wearing a suit that made her look capable. Her dark hair fell to her shoulders, making her look very imposing.

She just stood there and did not say a word, but everyone felt an invisible pressure.

“I heard that all of you really wanted me to come?” Qiao Xi’s cold voice carried a trace of ridicule as it slowly entered everyone’s ears.

Tang Ruge shuddered, and her heart skipped a beat.

Qiao Xi? How was this possible?! Hadn’t she already been captured? How could she appear here? Could it be that she had escaped? However, there were so many burly men guarding her, and she was drugged. How could she escape from that uninhabited place unless she had wings?

Before Tang Ruge could figure it out, Qiao Xi said casually, “Unfortunately, I’ve disappointed everyone. I didn’t come here to apologize.”

Everyone looked at that stunning face and was stunned for a long time. This was the legendary Qiao Xi? They had only heard of Qiao Xi’s name on the internet before and had never seen her face. This woman was not just beautiful but was as gorgeous as a fairy!

The entire venue was silent. Everyone seemed to be stunned. They could not believe that this beautiful woman in front of them would do so many disgusting things.

As soon as Xu Da saw Qiao Xi, he roared angrily, “If you’re not willing to apologize, why are you here?!”

Qiao Xi’s expression was indifferent as she unhurriedly found a chair to sit down on. Her indifferent eyes glanced at Xu Da as she let out a cold snort as if she couldn’t be bothered to talk to him at all.

Xu Da was completely infuriated by her appearance. “You pretended to be Fu Sheng to snatch the ancient zither from the charity banquet. Now, you’re unwilling to apologize and are still so arrogant. Do you really think we’re easy to bully?”

Only then did everyone come back to their senses. No matter how good-looking and capable Qiao Xi was, it was a fact that she had pretended to be Fu Sheng. If Mr. Xu Da had not discovered her scheme, the person standing on the podium today might have been her.

If she successfully stole both the ancient zither and Fu Sheng’s identity, how sad would Miss Tang be?!

Qiao Xi lazily leaned against the chair and slowly raised her cold eyes. “Miss Tang, do you want me to apologize?”
