"I spent a lot of money raising you. I couldn't bear the burden alone, so… I spent a portion of your mother's dowry on you. If you want all of it back, I really can't do it!"
Qiao Zhenguo tried his best to persuade her. "Xi Xi, actually, I've always had high hopes for you all these years. I know you hate Xu Mei and Rou Rou. That's why I haven't let Xu Mei formally join the Qiao family. It's just that this is Rou Rou's engagement banquet, so I let her come back. However, you fell out with the Qiao family over such a small matter. How can I hand the Qiao family to you?
"Xi Xi, I'm your father. Although we've had some misunderstandings, you'll always be my daughter. You can't… quarrel with your family like this. It won't be good for your reputation either. Tell me…"
At this moment, footsteps came from outside. Gu Zheng slowly looked up. "Mr. Qin, Madam Qin, please come in."
Qiao Xi was stunned for a few seconds before abruptly turning around.
