The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Qingwu Must Apologize! Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Qingwu Must Apologize! “Do you want something to eat?”

“No.”

Pei Jue understood, and signaled Annie to drive to a downtown restaurant.

“Do you like painting? Do you prefer oil painting or watercolor? I have some nice pieces at home, I’ll bring them to you next time.”

“I prefer oil paintings. No need to give me any, I already have plenty.”

Master Ji Changfeng painted countless works for her every year, and Po Jun, Ji Changfeng’s direct disciple, casually left his paintings in the Beidou Star laboratory, almost running out of places to put them…

“Then tell me what you like.”

Qingwu couldn’t help but lift her head to glance at Pei Jue before her.

The man before her was handsome and cold, with a glance at his face you could tell he was a decisive and ruthless ruler, yet when he looked at her, his eyes were filled with irresistible tenderness.

Those eyes were deep and sharp, exuding a bit of aloofness, his entire demeanor was refreshingly chilly, yet adorned with a pair of ruby cuff links at his wrists, adding a touch of nobility to him.

“Why do you want to know what I like?”

“Although I can guess your preferences, giving gifts that cater to one’s tastes is always better. I prefer to give you something you’ll like. Also, I want to get to know you.”

Pei Jue took off the glasses from his tall nose and placed them aside.

Without the lenses in the way, he could look more clearly into Qingwu’s crystal-clear eyes.

“Before knowing you were my fiancée, it seemed somewhat inappropriate to want to understand you. Now I can, but I wish to do so through you, not through other means or channels.”

Qingwu was fixated on by his gaze as if she were peering into a deep starry sky.

“I understand.”

“But if my fiancée wishes to know me, there are many ways to do so, I don’t mind.”

Qingwu pursed her lips and glanced at Pei Jue before her.

“I saw in the gossip news this morning, saying you were seen entering and exiting a hotel with an unknown actress, and you don’t mind?”

Pei Jue’s smile stiffened in an instant!

Entertainment news reporters always dared to write anything just for clicks!

The problem was if Qingwu believed that, then he really couldn’t clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River!

Qingwu had a hint of amusement at the corner of her mouth.

Seeing her boss stumble, Annie, being the competent assistant she was, immediately began to play her part.

“Miss, that was a young lady from the Pei Family, she is related by blood to President Pei, and they were entering a Pei Group hotel. We will deal with that media outlet, please don’t worry, Miss.”

Qingwu wasn’t trying to test Pei Jue with those news stories.

She just occasionally found it amusing to see him flustered…

Pei Jue gave a wry smile, but his gaze never left Qingwu.

“I understand, my fiancée is complaining that I didn’t bring you to meet the Pei family earlier, I was worried it might frighten you. After all, my family can be a bit overenthusiastic. Now that my fiancée has requested, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible, please give me some time.”

This time, it was Qingwu who couldn’t smile!

When did she say she wanted to meet his family!

But Pei Jue had already taken it to heart, turning his head to arrange the Pei Family’s dinner, despite Qingwu preparing for half a day, she couldn’t find a chance to intervene, so she had to give up.

…

Zuo Mansion

Shen Yurou sat on the sofa, crying miserably, tears streaming like a sluice gate had opened.

“Grandpa, I never wanted to compete with Sister Qingwu for anything! But she was too much… she actually threw away the painting I worked hard on for two months!”

Elder Zuo had seen Shen Yurou working on the painting, knowing that it was a labor of her heart’s blood.

But since Qingwu threw it away, there must have been a reason for it.

The gallery was already Qingwu’s, and Elder Zuo didn’t intend to intervene, letting Qingwu do as she wished.

Seeing Shen Yurou cry so bitterly, Shen Dongli was also a bit distressed.

“Yurou, the gallery is now Xiao Wu’s, we can’t do anything about it. How about this, I have a small gallery, I’ll give it to you. You can bring your paintings there and hang them up for your own exhibition.”

Shen Yurou’s crying stopped immediately!

The gallery under Shen Dongli’s management is not even a tenth the size of Elder Zuo’s gallery!

And they’re just using such a small place to dismiss her?!

Why could Qingwu get such a good gallery, but when it was her turn, she only got a tiny place!

“Dad, that’s not what I mean, I just want an explanation. Did Sister Qingwu have something against me to treat me this way? That painting is my heart’s blood, Grandpa is also a creator, he should understand the significance of the art, right?”

“Sister treats an artist’s work this way, whatever she does with the gallery afterwards might be even worse…”

Elder Zuo waved his hand dismissively: “Let Xiao Wu do whatever she pleases, at worst the gallery goes bankrupt, it’s no big deal.”

No big deal?!

That gallery is the largest art exhibition center in Beijing and has the most works of Master Ji Changfeng. If Qingwu manages to bankrupt it, wouldn’t it just confirm that a country bumpkin isn’t worthy of having a gallery?

Why did Elder Zuo trust her so much!

“Grandpa, I don’t mind, but that painting was a work I spent two months to complete, Sister Qingwu didn’t show any respect, and she must apologize to me!”

Shen Dongli was also in some difficulty.

He couldn’t bear to have his beloved daughter apologize to Shen Yurou.

Even if his daughter did something a bit excessive, it wasn’t a big problem…

But Shen Yurou had grown up by Mrs. Shen’s side and called him dad, so if she went to Mrs. Shen about this, Mrs. Shen would definitely trouble his precious daughter…

Zuo Wanjun was quiet for a moment, then suggested: “Let’s ask Xiao Wu when she returns, and settle it then.”

She believed her gentle, lovely, sensible, charming daughter would never do something disrespectful!

Zuo Wanjun was indeed very clear about her precious daughter’s character!

The Lin Family treated Qingwu like that, yet she had no intention of relying on the Shen Family to retaliate, which truly was heart-wrenching.

Zuo Wanjun wanted to believe her daughter had her reasons for what had happened.

Shen Yurou, seeing how things were, was both sour and angry that Zuo Wanjun still didn’t believe her.

“Mom, are you saying you don’t believe me? I am also your daughter, even if you feel sorry for Sister Qingwu, you shouldn’t fail to distinguish right from wrong!”

Tu Lan couldn’t stand it any longer and shouted angrily.

“Enough! You can’t just listen to one side, we’ll wait for Xiao Wu to get back and ask her clearly. If she really threw your painting away without reason, she should apologize, but if there was a reason, then that’s another matter.”

“Yes, Grandma.”

Shen Yurou dared not act spoiled in front of Tu Lan, so she could only agree.

Damn, even with things like this, they still took Qingwu’s side. If she didn’t do something about it, she would have no standing in the Shen family…
