Chapter 303: Daughter’s Temper

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Qingqian only found out later that this private gathering was organized by Ming Xiao’s aunt, who was also Ming Yuan’s sister, Ming Yue.

Ming Yue is 45 years old this year and is still unmarried. However, because she had taken good care of herself and looked like she was in her thirties, and because she was Ming Yuan’s sister, there were many men who fell under her skirt.

Ming Xiao was naturally also at the banquet held by Ming Yue. There were also two people Lin Qingqian did not expect—Li Ruzhu and Li Guilan.

Ming Xiao was greeting Ming Yue with Li Ruzhu and Li Guilan. When she saw her enter, their conversation immediately stopped.

Ming Yue was a cold and arrogant person. When she saw Lin Qingqian sizing her up, disdain flashed across her eyes.

Vin and KK were familiar with Ming Yue and introduced her. “Ming Yue, this is

Shi Guang Studio’s President, Lin Qingqian. AIR is her independent brand.”

Ming Yue’s eyes were filled with disdain as she said coldly, “I’m sorry, I don’t know much about domestic fashion. I only wear clothes designed by Lisa.”

Lisa was a famous French designer and had a high position in the fashion industry.

Her words were blatantly belittling Lin Qingqian.

Vin and KK’s expressions changed slightly as they looked at Lin Qingqian apologetically.

Lin Qingqian’s expression was indifferent. Her red lips curled up slightly as she said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, “Miss Ming comes from a noble background and only pays attention to international fashion trends. People like us have been born and lived on this land since we were young, so we naturally only pay attention to domestic fashion.”

Her indifferent words directly raised the culture of the nation. If Ming Yue continued to belittle her, it would be equivalent to belittling the culture she came from.

“Designer Lin is so eloquent.” Ming Yue sneered.

Lin Qingqian: “Thank you for your praise.”

Ming Yue’s eyes darkened. She felt uncomfortable, but because of her status as a socialite, she could not make things difficult for her in public. Otherwise, if word got out, it would damage her image.

From the corner of her eye, she saw Li Guilan beside her and smiled. “Madam Jiang, Designer Lin is your future daughter-in-law. Aren’t you going to discipline her for being so insensible?”

Li Guilan looked at Lin Qingqian with a sinister gaze and instantly understood what Ming Yue meant.

There was an unwritten rule in upper-class society that a daughter-in-law had to be filial to her mother-in-law, and no matter how her mother-in-law disciplined her daughter-in-law, it was only right.

“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Miss Ming. I’ll teach this insensible girl a lesson on behalf of my son.”

With that, she took a step forward and swung her hand at Lin Qingqian’s face.

“Qingqian…” Vin and KK immediately turned pale. They did not expect them to humiliate Lin Qingqian in public like this.

Seeing that Li Guilan’s hand was about to land on Lin Qingqian’s face, she reached out and accurately grabbed Li Guilan’s wrist, throwing a slap back in return.

She used a lot of strength in this slap. Li Guilan staggered two steps and fell to the ground. She covered her face and glared at Lin Qingqian in disbelief. “Lin Qingqian, are you crazy?

Ming Xiao and Ming Yue were also stunned, let alone the other rich ladies and socialites. Everyone had been taught since they were young to be gentle and virtuous, to be filial to their parents at home, and to listen to their in-laws’ guidance when they got married.

Lin Qingqian was the only person in the entire Lan City who dared to beat up her future mother-in-law in public.

Vin and KK were dumbfounded, but they inexplicably felt very good!

“I remember that on the day I left the Jiang family, I warned you not to provoke me. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences.” Lin Qingqian’s eyes were calm, her red lips curved, and her voice was clear and indifferent. “Not to mention that you’re no longer Madam Jiang. You don’t have the right to discipline me.”

“How audacious!” Ming Yue scolded, her eyes filled with disdain. “You’re simply disrespectful. What’s the difference between you and a countryside shrew?”

“Sorry, I’m from the countryside.” Lin Qingqian admitted her background without hesitation. “Miss Ming can choose not to look at it if you can’t stand it anymore. However, the so-called number one socialite is nothing much as expected.”

Ming Yue’s eyes narrowed. “What do you mean?”

Lin Qingqian glanced at Li Ruzhu and Li Guilan indifferently. “The daughter of a nouveau riche, and a woman who was chased out of the Jiang Family can actually participate in the gathering of the number one socialite in Lan City. I think the socialite circle in Lan City has really fallen.”

Ming Yue’s expression changed when she heard the word nouveau riche. She looked at Ming Xiao suspiciously.

These two people were brought over by Ming Xiao.

Ming Xiao was still a little respectful to Ming Yue. Her gloomy eyes shot towards Lin Qingqian. “Madam Jiang and Miss Li were invited by me. My aunt doesn’t know. And compared to them, the person who shouldn’t be here is you, right?”

“Editor-in-chief Ming, it’s clearly you…” Vin was about to explain for Lin Qingqian when Ming Xiao’s cold and sharp eyes looked at her warningly.

She was not afraid of Ming Xiao. She was afraid of the Ming Corporation behind Ming Xiao.

Lin Qingqian curved her lips. “Don’t worry, I’ll leave now, but…”

She paused and her gaze landed on Li Ruzhu, who was helping Li Guilan stand up. She said with a faint smile, “Since you’ve invited her, you could at least have prepared some jewelry for her. That limited edition Tiffany bracelet is lying in my safe box.”

For a moment, everyone’s gaze landed on the bracelet on Li Ruzhu’s wrist. Some sharp-eyed people immediately saw that the bracelet on her hand was an imitation after.

And what their circle looked down on the most was wearing imitation.

Li Ruzhu’s face alternated between green and white. She was like a slut who had been stripped naked and thrown on the street to be casually despised. She was embarrassed and immediately placed her hand behind her back.

When Ming Yue saw the fake bracelet on her wrist, her expression turned even colder. She said without thinking, “Please leave my house immediately.” Li Ruzhu looked at Ming Xiao pleadingly.

Ming Xiao frowned slightly and gestured for her to leave quickly. If they did not leave now, she would be implicated too.

Seeing that she was silent, Li Ruzhu could only help Li Guilan leave first. It would only be more embarrassing if they stayed here.

“Then I won’t disturb everyone’s elegance.” Lin Qingqian didn’t stay here longer and turned to leave.

Vin, KK, and Ming Yue hurriedly chased after Lin Qingqian.

Vin said apologetically, “I’m sorry. Ming Xiao explained that Miss Ming Yue admired your designs and wanted to get to know you, so I brought you here. I didn’t expect her to humiliate you in public.”

The late autumn night breeze was a little bone-piercing. Lin Qingqian pulled her shawl around her body and said indifferently, “It’s not your fault. Even if I

didn’t come today, they would still find an opportunity to humiliate me.”

It was a fact that she came from a bad background. She had never thought of denying or hiding it, let alone care what those socialites and young ladies thought.

“But in that case, the socialites in Lan City probably won’t ask for your custom designs in the future. Some female artistes in the industry will also avoid you!” KK said worriedly.

The socialite circle and the entertainment industry were inextricably linked. Lin Qingqian had slapped Ming Yue and Ming Xiao’s faces in public today, so she naturally would be ostracized and targeted.

Lin Qingqian didn’t care about this at all. She said slowly, “It doesn’t matter. My design isn’t just for high -ranking officials and nobles. It’s fine as long as the public likes it.”

Vin and KK both revealed gratified expressions. Although they were competitors, they had always been in a benign competition. Everyone’s goal was to make the domestic fashion industry better!

“If only all designers could think like you, ” Vin lamented.

Lin Qingqian curved her lower lip and did not say anything.

Under the dim light, a white figure suddenly rushed over. “Lin Qingqian, you b*tch…”

Before her hand could land on Lin Qingqian’s face, it was grabbed.

Lin Qingqian frowned slightly and her tone was a little cold. “Li Ruzhu, haven’t you caused enough trouble?”

“B*tch…” Li Ruzhu was clearly furious. Originally, she and Li Guilan wanted to enter the socialite circle tonight, but because Lin Qingqian exposed the bracelet on her hand, she would never be able to enter the socialite circle in her life.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn’t help but come to settle the score with Lin Qingqian, but she had forgotten a very important fact.

Lin Qingqian was no longer the same Lin Qingqian from a year ago.

Just as her other hand was about to pull Lin Qingqian’s hair, Lin Qingqian grabbed her hand and glanced at the fountain nearby.

With two steps, he pulled Li Ruzhu to the side of the fountain. She grabbed Li Ruzhu’s hair and pressed her head into the fountain.

“Ah!!” Li Ruzhu’s head was soaked in cold water. The bone-piercing cold made her scream and struggle with all her might.

But how could her little strength compare to Lin Qingqian, who had been doing farm work since she was young?

Lin Qingqian’s simple and elegant facial features were expressionless. Her eyes were calm as she grabbed Li Ruzhu’s head and pressed it into the water. She raised it every 30 seconds to let her take a few breaths before pressing it back down…

From the beginning to the end, she didn’t say a word.

For the second time tonight, Vin and KK were stunned by her.

Who would have thought that the usually calm Lin Qingqian would have such a fiery side? 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

At first, Li Ruzhu was still cursing at Lin Qingqian and calling her a b*tch. However, after a few times, she was paralyzed and did not even have the strength to struggle.

“What are you doing?” A cold voice suddenly sounded.

Lin Qingqian turned her head and saw Ming Xiao walking over. She let go of Li Ruzhu’s head. Her upper body was drenched. She sat on the ground and panted heavily.

“Senior Ming’s dog is disobedient and likes to bark randomly. I was afraid of letting it disturb the esteemed guests, so I helped Senior Ming teach it a lesson.” Lin Qingqian’s tone was indifferent. After saying that, she picked up the shawl that had fallen to the ground, but she did not put it on.

Lin Qingqian’s brows and eyes were calm as she said in a slow voice, “Then I’ll have to trouble Senior to take care of your dog. If it hurts a passerby or accidentally get bitten back, the gains won’t make up for the losses.”

“Lin Qingqian!” Ming Xiao couldn’t help but raise her voice, unable to hide her anger.

“Ming Xiao.” Lin Qingqian’s eyes darkened slightly as she retorted, “You’d better control your emotions well. Who knows if there are any cameras nearby? If others see you like this, do you think anyone will believe your gentle and generous persona?”

Ming Xiao held her breath and her anger was extinguished by her words. She subconsciously glanced at Vin and KK, warning them not to speak nonsense when they went out.

Lin Qingqian curved her lips. “Senior should still remember Qiaoqiao, right?”

…Qiaoqiao!

Ming Xiao gritted his teeth. “What do you mean?”

“Nothing.” Lin Qingqian looked at her like a pool of clear water that was naturally harmless, but her aura was tough and difficult to underestimate. “I heard that she hasn’t been doing well recently, so I sent someone to bring her to the city to relax..”
