1274 Xia Mengyan’s Plan Failed
“The porcelain sculpture was really thrown away? Chairman Xia ordered his men to throw away the porcelain sculpture that the Luo family gave him. Is he crazy? It’s fine if he doesn’t want to collaborate with them, but he even threw away the gift they gave him. Isn’t this a slap to the Luo family’s face?”
“No wonder Miss Qiao said that she hoped Chairman Xia wouldn’t regret it. He threw away the real porcelain sculpture but treated a fake as a treasure. Chairman Xia must be regretting it!”
“Of course, he regrets it! Ignoring how precious the porcelain sculpture is, now that the Xia family has completely angered the Luo family, it definitely won’t end well for them.”
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Xia Cheng’s breathing quickened as he stammered, “I… ordered to have it thrown away, but… why didn’t you say so earlier? If you had told me that this was the Luo family’s porcelain sculpture, I wouldn’t have… thrown it away.”
“Chairman Xia, you must be old, so you don’t have a good memory.” The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled into a mocking smile as she said slowly, “I told you twice that the porcelain sculpture was given to me by Young Master Luo, but you didn’t believe me. I told you not to regret it, but you thought I was threatening you, so you casually threw the Luo family’s porcelain sculpture away. Can you blame me for this?
“I said that it was the real porcelain sculpture, but you heard Xia Mengyan’s instigation and concluded that it was a fake. You didn’t believe a word I said, but you firmly believed Xia Mengyan’s words. Chairman Xia, this is your prejudice. What does it have to do with me?”
Mr. Luo was instantly angry. He looked at Xia Mengyan fiercely. “I understand now. You instigated Chairman Xia to throw away the porcelain sculpture to frame Miss Qiao. Then, you took out a fake to show off. If I hadn’t come today, no one would have exposed you. Your Xia family is really bold. You actually don’t take our Luo family’s gift seriously!
“In that case, the collaboration between the two families will be canceled. I’ll call the young master immediately. Since Xia Corporation isn’t sincere, our Luo family won’t force it.”
Some blood surged out of Xia Cheng’s throat.
“Mr. Luo! This is all a misunderstanding. Mengyan wouldn’t have done that. She must have been deceived…”
No one believed such a weak explanation. Before Mr. Luo could speak, the people below the stage could not help but say, “In the end, Xia Cheng is just biased! He didn’t believe anything Miss Qiao said, and Xia Mengyan fooled him with just a few words. It’s all his fault for being muddle-headed!”
“That’s right! Miss Qiao had said many times that it was Young Master Luo’s porcelain sculpture, but Xia Cheng refused to listen and even scolded Miss Qiao. Now that the person who took out a fake and caused Xia Corporation to lose their collaboration is Xia Mengyan, he’s defending her!”
“If Xia Mengyan was deceived so easily, then she’s most likely mentally disabled. With her IQ, she’s not qualified to be the person in charge and heir at all. I think she should get treated as soon as possible!”
“Her lies are so clumsy, so it’s useless even if she seeks treatment. Moreover, IQ is hereditary, right? She’s Ai Sumei’s granddaughter, while Miss Qiao is Yin Lianxin’s granddaughter. Back then, when Yin Lianxin was all-powerful in the business world and in charge of the entire Yin family, Ai Sumei was only thinking about how to become a mistress. The two of them are not on the same level at all, so of course, Miss Qiao’s IQ is higher than Xia Mengyan’s!”
“I finally understand. This is the trap set up by Xia Corporation for Miss Qiao! Old Madam Xia, Xia Ji, and Xia Mengyan are all jealous that Miss Qiao is in charge, so they were thinking of ways to pull her down from her position.”
“First, they insisted that Miss Qiao’s porcelain sculpture was a fake. Then, Miss Xia stepped forward to salvage the situation. Not only did she show off her might, but she also stabilized her position as the person in charge. She also succeeded in making the higher-ups look at her in a different light. That way, she could become the heir!”
Xia Mengyan stood where she was, her body stiff. Those people’s words were like a huge rock blocking her heart.
Mr. Luo sneered. “I’ve really learned something today. In order to let Miss Xia inherit the family business, Chairman Xia actually thought of such a stupid method to frame Miss Qiao. At the same time, he offended our Luo family. Were all of you going to die with Miss Qiao? Isn’t the price too high?”
Her words caused everyone to laugh.
The Xia family’s method was indeed very stupid. Moreover, now that their lie had been exposed and Miss Qiao was not affected at all, they had basically shot themselves in the foot.
At this moment, Xia Cheng finally reacted. This was all Xia Mengyan’s plan. She wanted to take this opportunity to frame Qiao Xi, but she did not expect the plan to fail and implicate the Xia family.
Due to Xia Mengyan’s plan, not only was the collaboration canceled, but they had also completely offended the Luo family.
