Chapter 684: Nothing But Good Looks

“My sister is from the Tang family, a porcelain family. Even if she can’t find the top craftsman in the world, she can still create the perfect porcelain piece.

“Yet you have the cheek to compare yourself to my sister? Do you know anything about porcelain? Just one look at you and I know you’re an ignorant and incompetent hedonistic son!”

Tang Ruge’s expression did not change as she quietly listened to her sister scolding the two outsiders. Seeing that she was done, she said gently, “Yun Yun, don’t be so rude.”

Then, Tang Ruge looked at Qiao Xi. “Looking at your clothes, you must be from a rich family. In terms of wealth, I might not be able to compare to you, but this vase is something that the elders of my family have been thinking about for a long time. I hope you can fulfill my wish.

“Moreover, the request is to find the top porcelain master in the world. This has nothing to do with who came first. The most important thing is who has the ability to invite that person. Some things can’t be bought with just money. Even if you have money, you can’t force it.”

Gu Yao was so angry that his face turned red. This woman looked gentle and generous, but in reality, every word she said was mocking him and Qiao Xi for being nouveau riche. Moreover, why did she think she could forcefully get something?

Tang Lingyun snorted angrily. “Our Tang family is a porcelain family, and my sister is a socialite in the capital. Although she might not be richer than you, her status is definitely higher than yours. You guys stink so much that it makes me want to vomit!”

Qiao Xi recalled that there was indeed a young miss in the Tang family. She heard that she was proficient in the four arts and was a talented woman who was very popular in high society.

The Tang family thought of themselves as noble and cultured. Naturally, they looked down on businessmen who reeked of money. That was why these two ladies were filled with hostility when they saw her and Gu Yao.

Although Gu Yao did not know any porcelain masters, Gu Zheng was so powerful that he would definitely be able to find that person. Hence, he bragged, “Isn’t it just a matter of finding the top porcelain master in the world? I want to compete with you. Let’s see who can find this person first and get them to agree to make the porcelain vase.”

Hearing this, Tang Lingyun’s face was filled with disdain. “You? Do you dare to bet with us? Let’s see who can find that porcelain master first, then!”

Tang Ruge stopped her. “Lingyun.”

The surrounding people sighed. “Young man, it’s not that we’re looking down on you, but how can you possibly find the top porcelain master in the world before the Tang family? You’d better cancel the bet, lest you get yourself into trouble.”

“That’s right! This porcelain vase might be just an object to you, but it’s very meaningful to the Tang family. If you leave now, it won’t be too embarrassing.”

“The two are probably just embarrassed. That lady in branded clothes doesn’t look like someone to be trifled with. It’s probably because she’s embarrassed, so she’s jealous after seeing a cultured and knowledgeable woman like Miss Tang.”

Tang Lingyun sneered. “You’re so beautiful and wearing such expensive clothes. Who knows if you’re even spending your own money?!”

If it were anything else, Gu Yao could still tolerate it. But he could not take it lying down when she mocked Qiao Xi for being a mistress. The anger in his heart burned fiercely.

It did not matter what they said. In any case, he was indeed shameless and a good-for-nothing. However, they could not say anything about Qiao Xi. She was the champion of the International Real-time Translation Competition and was a teacher at Li City University. She was also an internationally renowned designer. Even if she had not married Gu Zheng, she still had the ability to support herself!

They shouldn’t think that Qiao Xi was just a beautiful woman who relied on men. She had clearly established herself as a capable woman.

Qiao Xi, Li Xing’er, Xue Yi, and Qin Shuwan were all beautiful and talented women. Any one of these women could make Tang Lingyun shut up.

Gu Yao was so angry that his face turned red. He did not say anything for a long time.

“Thank you for praising my beauty,” Qiao Xi said casually with a calm smile on her face.

She looked up and sized up Tang Ruge, then touched her cheek confidently. “Sigh! There’s nothing else good about me except that I’m beautiful. I’m also very troubled. I’m already so beautiful. If I’m more educated and cultured than Miss Tang, how will anyone be able to accept that?! In order to save Miss Tang’s dignity, I admit that I’m indeed uneducated.”

Gu Yao: “…” Qiao Xi was indeed Gu Zheng’s wife. Why were their words so vicious?!

Tang Ruge frowned. Her appearance was indeed not outstanding. Even after the help of heavy makeup and multiple pieces of jewelry, she could only be considered above average. Fortunately, she had an outstanding temperament and was elegant and knowledgeable. That was why she was chased after by everyone.
