Chapter 538: Falling into Gu Qiqi’s Pit
Gu Qiqi spoke elegantly. After a simple sentence, she looked at Gu Xuexue deeply with a spurious smile.
Gu Xuexue’s eyes widened and she was speechless.
It wasn’t that she didn’t answer, but she didn’t understand these words at all!
What language was Gu Qiqi speaking? It wasn’t English or French. What was she doing?!
Gu Xuexue was going crazy.
She didn’t know the content of Gu Qiqi’s question. How was she going to answer?
She was the one who was embarrassed now.
Holding back her smile, Gu Xuexue helped herself out and said, “Sister, you sure know how to joke. Which country is this language of yours? Are you joking with everyone? Perhaps such jokes are popular in the countryside, but it’s not suitable here…”
She tried to fool her with the fact that Gu Qiqi was a country bumpkin.
How could those shrewd rich madams be easy to deceive?
Immediately, a diplomat’s wife stood out. “This Young Lady Qiqi speaks Hebrew. It’s a very ancient noble language. It’s not a joke from the countryside!”
Immediately, someone chimed in. “Wow, Hebrew? My son found a professional language professor and studied it for three years but didn’t manage to be accepted by him! It’s said that those who can learn it have super high IQ!”
“Isn’t this Young Lady Qiqi too knowledgeable and low-key?”
“Eh, from the looks of it, if Young Lady Yuanyuan isn’t qualified to be the executive director of Qing Yuxuan, will Young Lady Qiqi be the one to take up the role?”
The rich madams’ unintentional discussions were simply equivalent to ten thousand critical blows. Gu Xuexue couldn’t hold her face anymore.
She picked up the microphone and tried to change the topic. “Please ask the next question…”
However, someone translated Gu Qiqi’s words excitedly and asked sharply, “What Young Lady Qiqi said just now was whether your Qingyu Xuan’s jade jewelry can really improve luck and prevent disasters like you said?”
Gu Xuexue’s face stiffened.
Of course not. These superstitious words were just a publicity gimmick. Who would take it seriously?
But she couldn’t expose this trick to coax people in front of everyone. Wouldn’t that be slapping these customers and herself in the face?
Thus, it wasn’t easy for her to find some confidence in everyone’s gazes. At this moment, everything collapsed.
“This… This… You have to ask…” Gu Xuexue stammered and couldn’t answer.
Bai Yingzhu walked over unhappily and glared fiercely at her. “Useless!”
Then, she clapped her hands and greeted everyone. “Designer Yang Xiaoqing brought us the latest design just now. Let’s go and take a look together, okay?”
Gu Xuexue bit her lips and followed quickly. She couldn’t bear to let go of the next opportunity to be in the limelight.
She had done a lot of homework in advance and knew this batch of latest designs like the back of her hand. She was planning to promote it well tonight so that the rich madams could sign a big order with her and make a big contribution!
Gu Qiqi followed the crowd to the exhibition hall unhurriedly.
In the beautifully decorated exhibition hall, a batch of expensive jewelry that had been freshly made was placed on the long golden velvet table for more than ten meters. There were necklaces, bracelets, jade crowns, tassel earrings, and even an antique golden silk gaiter and jade hairpin.
What was surprising was that all the jewelry was made of the same material, but the carving technique was different.
The most luxurious thing was the decorations beside it.
In order to highlight the inseparable cooperation between the Medical Hall and Qing Yuxuan, there were actually many natural ginseng and ganoderma placed around the exhibition table as decorations to accentuate the expensive and extraordinary jade jewelry.
The rich madams felt their hearts itch. “It’s so beautiful. What material is it made of? Is it for an exhibition or for sale?”
Gu Xuexue forced a smile and hurriedly rushed to the front row to introduce the items to everyone.
This was the highlight of tonight. She definitely couldn’t let Gu Qiqi ruin it again!
However, her peripheral vision swept across Gu Qiqi’s faint smile.
Gu Xuexue was shocked.
She kept feeling that there was a deeper pit behind her and something more terrifying was waiting for her!
