<strong>Chapter 934: Chapter 922: Insulting Qiao Jing’s Looks</strong>


    Upon hearing Sun Mingxin’s words, the expressions on the faces of the group showed understanding, and their gazes towards the three of Qiao Jing became more disdainful.


    “So that’s why they came for the Young Master Lu; no surprise, the Qiao Family has fallen, and people with their status probably don’t often get the chance to meet someone like Young Master Lu!”


    “Yeah, and after all, considering they’re rtives, if they insist oning, Madam Sun can’t just directly kick them out.”


    “But what can paupers like them do after seeing Young Master Lu? Do they dare dream that he might take a fancy to them and transform into a phoenix?”


    “…”


    After hearing Sun Mingxin twist the facts, Qiao Lin was already grinding her teeth with anger, and now with these mockingments, she was about to explode with rage.


    What’s with this lousy birthday party, do they think we’re desperate toe?


    We didn’t even want toe in the first ce!


    And now we’rebeled as impoverished and scheming to hook up with Young Master Lu, like opportunistic chickens!


    In a fit of anger, Qiao Lin flung her hand, ready to leave.


    Qiao Jing timely reached out to stop her, nced at the long table overflowing with food and desserts, and said leisurely, “Second sister, even if we’re going to leave, let’s eat first. We’ve already paid the gift money; it can’t just go to waste.”


    “Besides, they can say what they want, we just don’t have to listen.”


    Upon hearing this, Qiao Lin suddenly found it quite reasonable.


    Why should we pay and still endure sneers for nothing? We’vee, might as well eat a bit before leaving, or else it’s a loss!


    Qiao Hong nodded in agreement, “Xiao Jing makes a good point; they can say whatever; let’s eat!”


    Thus, the three sisters headed towards the long table, talking andughing as they indulged in sweets,pletely ignoring the people who had been mocking them.


    Seeing that the three were mocked yet didn’t leave, just kept eating, Sun Mingzhu and Sun Mingxin wore expressions full of contempt.


    Sun Mingxin sneered aloud, “Looks like the Qiao Family really is broke; those three sisters are acting like they’ve never had anything tasty, truly making fools of themselves!”


    Sun Mingzhu didn’t say anything, but her lips curled into a noticeable mocking smile.


    What could those Qiao sisters possibly use topete with her?


    Some time after the party began, someone couldn’t help but ask Qiao Pen, “Madam Sun, didn’t you say Young Master Lu woulde to celebrate Ming Zhu’s birthday? Why isn’t he here yet?”


    That nouveau riche-looking middle-aged woman chimed in, “Could it be that Young Master Lu isn’ting after all?”


    Qiao Pen’s expression stiffened, feeling somewhat uncertain, she subconsciously nced at her eldest daughter.


    Sun Mingzhu was full of confidence, assuredly saying, “No way, Director Lu will definitelye; he must be dyed by something and will arrive a bitte.”


    After all, today is her birthday, and since Lu Zijin likes her, how could he note?


    As Sun Mingzhu was musing, Qiao Pen suddenly shouted joyfully, “Here he is, here he is, Young Master Lu is here!”


    At that moment, everyone turned their gaze towards the entrance of the banquet hall.


    Under everyone’s eyes, dressed in a white suit, the elegantly charming Lu Zijin walked in leisurely from the doorway.


    Seeing Lu Zijin, Sun Mingzhu felt a rush of secret joy.


    She just knew, Lu Zijin would definitelye!


    Moreover, this showed that Lu Zijin certainly had feelings for her!


    While Qiao Jing had been indifferent to everything at this banquet, once Lu Zijin appeared, her gaze involuntarily shifted to him.


    She remembered thatst time when President Zhan had an acute gastritis attack and was sent to the hospital, it was this person who performed the surgery.


    So he is actually the Lu family’s Young Master, Lu Zijin.


    But why does she feel a sense of familiarity with this Lu Zijin?


    Perhaps Qiao Jing’s gaze was too intense and it caught Lu Zijin’s attention.


    He unexpectedly turned his head and looked in her direction.


    From a distance, their gazes barely met.


    Lu Zijin visibly recognized her, with a hint of surprise on his face.


    At the hospitalst time, he hadn’t paid much attention; seeing her again now, he peculiarly felt that this girl’s aura was somewhat simr to Qiao Jing’s.


    No wonder Zhan Qipei had mistaken her for Qiao Jing back then…


    Beside Qiao Jing, Qiao Lin noticed her anomaly, followed Qiao Jing’s gaze, and saw Young Master Lu, Lu Zijin.


    This discovery prompted Qiao Lin to tease, “Oh my, let me have a good look, what’s holding our Xiao Jing’s attention so much?”


    Qiao Lin nodded to herself, saying, “Not bad, not bad, our Xiao Jing has discerning eyes; this Young Master Lu is indeed quite handsome and seems gentle and elegant, definitely a gentlemanly, refined man!”


    Qiao Jing snapped out of her thoughts, withdrew her gaze from Lu Zijin, turned to look at Qiao Lin, and said with a slightly helpless expression, “Second sister, what are you talking about?”


    She just found Lu Zijin familiar, so she took a few extra nces.


    Qiao Lin patted Qiao Jing’s shoulder and continued to joke, “Don’t worry, don’t be shy, as they say, it’s time for marriage for men, time for marriage for women, you’re old enough to start dating!”


    Just then, Sun Mingxin’s mocking and blunt voice intruded, “A toad like you dreaming of being with a swan?”


    “I advise you to stop dreaming, better use the time to take a good look at yourself in the mirror and wake yourself up!”


    Hearing Sun Mingxin again target Qiao Jing’s appearance, Qiao Lin instantly got angry.


    She red fiercely at Sun Mingxin, angrily saying, “Sun Mingxin, what nonsense are you spouting? You’re the real toad here! And the most annoying kind at that!”


    Qiao Hong also red at Sun Mingxin, indignant and said, “I’m telling you, our Xiao Jing definitely is worthy, just because she has a few pimples, when they’re healed, she’ll surely dazzle everyone and look so beautiful you’ll be speechless!”


    Every time she heard someone call their Xiao Jing ugly, she had the impulse to peel off Xiao Jing’s fake skin and shock those blind-eyed people!


    “Dazzle everyone? Beautiful enough to leave me speechless?”


    Sun Mingxin deliberately repeated the words, thenughed as if hearing the biggest joke, bending forward and backward with mirth.


    Once she’dughed enough, she looked at Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin, and mocked, “You two sisters are really incredible at bragging, spinning such oundish tales without batting an eye; I’m in awe of you.”


    “Not wasting words on people like you!”


    Qiao Lin’s face reddened with anger, letting out a cold snort, she directly pulled Qiao Hong and Qiao Jing away.


    If she continued talking with Sun Mingxin, she feared she’d either die of anger or couldn’t restrain herself from hitting Sun Mingxin!
