The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 366 - 364

Chapter 366

Chapter 366: Chapter 364
Suddenly, many people received phone calls and started finding excuses to slip away. Yu’s father was still on stage, but everyone informed the little host Yu Yunxi before hurriedly bidding farewell.
Yu Yunxi was utterly confused, completely unaware of what was happening.
"Yunxi, there’s an urgent matter at home, I must return immediately. Please let your father know later."
"Okay, Uncle, take care." Yu Yunxi forced a smile despite feeling displeased.
Yu’s father was still passionately delivering his speech on stage, but the audience continued to dwindle as everyone received a phone call and quickly left.
In less than three minutes, the once crowded hall was almost empty.
Yu’s father hastily wrapped up his speech and came down. Those few people also quickly came to say goodbye, some even regretting leaving late, but they couldn’t help it; they received the news late.
"Old Zhao, what’s going on here? You all..." Yu’s father was completely clueless.
"Old Yu, there’s really an urgent matter at the company; I need to handle it immediately. Let’s meet next time." President Zhao quickly slipped away, internally cursing, thinking those who called him idiots for getting such important news so late!
"But..."
"Old Yu, I have an urgent family matter that I need to attend to, really sorry."
"..."
"I also have an urgent family matter!"
...
In the end, there wasn’t a single guest left at Yu’s family’s side; all had gone.
Leaving the Yu father and son dumbfounded!
...
Meanwhile, all the guests had arrived at the birthday banquet of Qiao Family’s daughter. Qiao Yaozu watched the crowd and gifts arriving in waves, momentarily unable to comprehend what was happening.
Weren’t these people already at the Yu Family’s banquet? How did they all come here again? Many even brought their wives!
Each gift was lavish.
Qiao Yaozu had no idea these people were feeling guilty. Previously, they thought the Yu Family was going to prosper and abandoned the Qiao Family for the Yu Family! Now they got the news that the Qiao Family was actually acquainted with the Rong and Gu Families in the Capital City, so they promptly returned.
Anyone with a shred of dignity would feel guilty.
Thus, they could only make amends with costly gifts!
The ladies surrounded Qiao Qiqi, complimenting her endlessly.
No matter how much the ladies praised, Qiao Qiqi remained calm and unperturbed, graciously thanking each one.
"Miss Qiao, your jade necklace is so beautiful! I see your mother is wearing one too; where did you buy them?" Mrs. Zhao loved collecting jewelry and couldn’t take her eyes off the jades worn by Qiao Qiqi and her mother, wishing she could buy them immediately.
"Madam, I play at stone gambling myself, and this is what I won! I still have a few pieces of jade in good quality, if Madam is interested, you can come and see them another day." Qiao Qiqi explained with a smile.
"But I just love the one you’re wearing, it especially suits my taste!" Mrs. Zhao admired the green beads that made the young lady’s skin look as radiant as white jade and liked it immensely.
"The one my mother has is a gift from me, but my set will be up for sale next. If Madam is really interested, you can support us when our jade store opens."
Gifts for family are not for sale, but her own set is available for purchase.
Such collectible-grade jade jewelry isn’t owned by just one person; they are often brought to auction, and people are still eager for good items.
