Qian Tao did not take Qian Churui’s words to heart and brushed her off. “I’ll be heading off.”
Qian Churui, on the other hand, felt uncomfortable with her sister’s cold attitude. As Qian Tao walked past her, she turned. Looking at her back, she fumed, “Who are you to show me that face? Don’t you ever think that you are superior just because you are my elder sister! Let me tell you this, when I marry Yuanhang, you will never get to speak in this house ever!”
Qian Tao paused for a few seconds, not saying anything.
Had this Little Miss Qian forgotten that the person who had just saved the Xiao family was her elder sister?
Wasn’t it because of her that Churui could be the daughter in law of Xiao’s family?
However, Qian Tao had no intention to get any credit. She walked down the staircase and reminded, “Please remember to tell Father that I won’t be home for dinner tonight.”
“Qian Tao!” Qian Churui was furious. “That’s why Xiao Yuanhang didn’t want you!”
Qian Tao stopped where she was standing. Without replying, she went out.
Liu Hui heard the argument, walked out and told her daughter off, “Churui, you are not behaving like a lady by raising your voice and arguing like that. You’re lucky your father is not home or he would have lectured you. Sometimes you have to learn from Qian Tao, why else would your father bring her along for dinner parties? This attitude of yours can’t qualify you for bigger events! You are about to get married…”
Although she didn’t like Qian Tao, Qian Tao’s personality surpassed that of her daughter.
“Why must I learn from her?” Qian Churui was unwilling to submit. “So what if she’s a lady? Nobody likes her! Eventually, Yuanhang picked me and not her, it shows that she’s a failure!”
“Silly girl!” Liu Hui was a person who had a similar experience and so, advised, “To prove a woman a failure or not doesn’t depend on whether the man chooses her.”
“Then, what does it depend on?”
“Sigh, you won’t understand even if I tell you. I hope Yuanhang really treats you well.”
“Of course! I’ll be married to Yuanhang soon, if he doesn’t treat me well, who else will he be good to?”
Looking at the closed door, Liu Hui went into deep thought.

“Mr. Yan, where are we going for dinner?”
“Miss Qian, are you worried? Don’t worry, daughter of the mayor, I’ll send you home just the way I picked you up and not let anything bad happen to you. How are we to explain to Mr. Mayor if something were to happen?”
Qian Tao was silent.
She didn’t believe him.
If Li Hengzhi wished to do something to her, he wouldn’t even care if her father was the mayor or not.
“Miss Qian, it looks like you did not really dress up,” Yan Hai said. He had looked at her before she hopped onto his car. She wore casual clothes which girls wouldn’t wear when they went on dates.
She lowered her head and look at herself. Absent-mindedly, she replied, “I have natural beauty.”
Pfft…
Yan Hai almost laughed.
However, it was the truth.

When she got down the car, Qian Tao realized she had been brought to a high-class club. Tailing Yan Hai from behind, her hands, held tightly in front of her, was filled with cold sweat.
The unknown in front of her was part of the factors that made her nervous.
She couldn’t hold on to her curiosity any longer and so she asked, “Mr. Yan, do you know why Mr. Li invited me?”
Yan Hai smiled and replied in a relaxed manner, “When a man asks a woman out, what other reasons could there be?”
Yan Hai stopped in front of a room and gestured for Qian Tao to go in. “Mr. Li is inside. I won’t be going in. Miss Qian, please.”
