Qiaoqiao

Rumor had it that Qiao Xi had a weak constitution—a sickly beauty. Rumor had it that she spent a fortune every day on medications—eating them like candy. Rumor had it that ten servants waited on her by her bed every day—a burden to everyone. They were all waiting for the Qiao family to toss Qiao Xi back to the countryside and leave her to fend for herself. 
Qiao Xi: "They're all saying that I'm weak and can't take care of myself. Apparently, I spend money recklessly as well.” 
She looked down at her tattered shirt and was exasperated. 
Qiao Xi: “Are you saying that this wealthy family lets their daughter wear tattered clothes every day?” 
The Qiao family's rich daughter? She had enough! She would not be it anymore! Therefore… 
Scumbag guy: "Without the Qiao family, you're nothing." 
Qiao Xi: "If I'm kicked out of the Qiao family, I'll be done for." 
Scumbag girl: "Sis, don't be too disappointed. As long as you work hard, you'll be praised one day.”
Qiao Xi: "Shut up, I don't know a traitor like you." 
The scumbag guy and girl: "???" 
Rumor had it that the Gu family's youngest son, Gu Zheng, rashly married a woman who had nothing but looks. 
Qiao Xi: "Is someone looking down on me?" 
One day, Qiao Xi saw one of Gu Zheng's employees racking his brains over a series of numbers on the computer screen. Since she was free, she lent a hand. 
Did she just crack the firewall created by the joint efforts of top elite hackers?! 
Gu Zheng inched closer with every step. "Qiao Xi, what else are you hiding from me? Hmm?" 
Qiao Xi: "Oh, no! I feel dizzy again! I'm so weak. This body of mine is just too weak!"

"Trouble comes from the mouth. Don't say such things again. We invited Ah Zheng over to apologize," He Weinian berated in a low voice.

He Weinian knew very well that the reason he was like a fish in water in Li City was that he was Gu Zheng's master. Otherwise, who would show him any respect when he held a charity banquet?

Everyone felt that it was not a good thing for the He family if their relationship with Gu Zheng broke down, so he specially held this banquet.

He Weinian lowered his voice and said, "Those who achieve great things have to be flexible. Being humiliated now means nothing. Everything will be ours sooner or later."

On the other hand, Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng slowly walked into the banquet hall. Qiao Xi chuckled and said, "Ah Zheng, what do you think He Weinian has been scheming for his entire life?"

Gu Zheng said casually, "It's probably to live forever!"

Immortality? This must be the reason why He Weinian built the research lab!
