Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 155 - The Hustling and Bustling Banquet

"Weiqi."

Li Weiqi turned around and smiled. "Elder Brother and Sister-in-law, you're here."

He turned to his parents and said, "Dad, Mum, this is Qingqing's elder brother and sister-in-law. And, these two are her nephew and niece-in-law."

"Uncle and Auntie, nice to meet you," Xu Ze hurriedly greeted.

Li Weiqi's parents critically sized the four up. Mr Li then said, "I heard that Xu Qing's mother was coming today, but I don't see her?"

"Mother isn't feeling well, so we let her stay at home and have a good rest," Xu Ze explained.

Seeing that the two elders didn't quite like them, Liang Dahui sneered in her heart. In the future, Xu Qing will have enough to suffer.

"Mum, I just saw Uncle," Xu Qi said.

"Where?" Liang Dahui hurriedly looked in the direction that Xu Qi was pointing, and sure enough, she saw her rich brother-in-law. "Strange, why don't I see your aunt and cousin?"

Normally, those who were married would bring their family along to these kinds of dinner parties, yet her brother-in-law was standing over there by himself.

"Qiqi, go greet your uncle and ask him about your aunt and cousin."

After Xu Qi had walked away, Liang Dahui smilingly said, "You rich people also don't have it easy, do you? My sister also married a rich man, and I heard that she always goes to all kinds of banquets. Fortunately, she's determined and has a strong character, so she won't let others bully her easily. Xu Qing, on the other hand, is soft-tempered and timid. I'm really worried that she won't be able to handle these kinds of events in the future."

Li Weiqi's parents' expressions turned somewhat awkward.

"Auntie, thank you for your concern," a voice said from behind the group.

The group turned around to see a tall girl in a black and red off-the-shoulder dress walking slowly towards them with a slight smile on her face.

Xu Jiaojiao was much more outstanding than her own mother. After Li Weiqi's parents had met her for the first time, they'd even privately discussed amongst themselves: If only an impeccable girl like Xu Jiaojiao was Weiqi's girlfriend. If that was the case, they'd have approved of their relationship with open arms. Xu Qing had a gentle and soft personality, and apart from this, the only great attribute she possessed was her luck. She was truly lucky to have found such a powerful and influential backer as her foster father.

Liang Dahui appeared somewhat ashamed. If Xu Qing was the one who'd heard those words, she wouldn't have felt like this, because Xu Qing definitely wouldn't refute her. However, Xu Jiaojiao was different. She had attained her current fame at such a young age in such a short period of time. She wasn't simple at all.

Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at Liang Dahui with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and unhurriedly said, "Auntie, you're overthinking things. It's not like mother is going to become a socialite. She won't have to deal with those things."

Liang Dahui was left speechless.

When Li Weiqi saw his parents' expression take a turn for the better, he cast a grateful look at Sheng Jiaoyang. He wasn't good with words, and at work, he always used the 'facts speak for themselves' approach. Due to that, in the face of Liang Dahui's provocation, or better said, Xu Qing's family's provocation, he was left in a predicament and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Jiaojiao's right. Qingqing only needs to be my wife. She doesn't need to deal with anyone if she doesn't like it."

Sheng Jiaoyang smiled and continued, "A precious vase doesn't need to be packaged and doesn't need to be used for any purpose. Its value alone makes it impossible for others to ignore its existence. On the other hand, if a cheap vase wants others to own it, it either needs to be beautifully packaged or has to have an added value. Obviously, my mother belongs to the former!"
