Chapter 1974 - 1947: The Aggrieved Wei Xu
At this moment, Qiu Yingrong also noticed Rose, and a hint of loneliness flashed across her delicate face.
As a beauty, Qiu Yingrong has always been confident in her appearance and figure. Even compared to Bai Zhiqing, she doesn’t fall short. But compared to Rose, Rose is slightly superior. Whether it’s facial features or figure, Rose is better, and most importantly, Rose constantly exudes a seductive charm that captivates men at a glance. This unparalleled allure is something she can’t match.
For a man, it’s not the beauty or figure of a woman that attracts attention, but whether she can set his heart aflame. If a woman can achieve that, then she truly captures the eye.
Clearly, Rose achieved this.
Rose also noticed Qiu Yingrong, a gleam flashed in her eyes. She hadn’t seen Qiu Yingrong when she came to Qin Island, but she had heard Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru mention her—a knowledgeable and elegant woman. Today, seeing her, she indeed lived up to her reputation and possessed great allure for men.
However, Rose’s gaze lingered on Qiu Yingrong only for a moment before shifting to Lu Tianxing. No, to be accurate, her gaze fell on Lu Tianxing and Lingling.
Since Lingling was now in Lu Tianxing’s arms, holding his neck with both hands, looking like a father-daughter duo, it was hard not to notice.
Rose walked to Lu Tianxing’s side, directly ignoring Wei Xu and Qiu Tianrui, and smiled, saying to Lu Tianxing: "Little man, is this your recognized goddaughter?"
"How is she? Isn’t she adorable?" Lu Tianxing looked at Rose and smiled.
"Indeed, she is very cute, like a porcelain doll. I can’t help but want to take her home," Rose nodded.
Seeing Rose, Lingling instinctively hugged Lu Tianxing’s neck tighter, as if afraid Rose would take him away. She looked up at Lu Tianxing and asked, "Daddy, who is this lady? Is she also your wife like Aunt Mei Gui?"
Astonished by Lingling’s words, Lu Tianxing smiled, glanced at Rose, and said, "Yes, she’s also Daddy’s wife. You should call her Aunt Mei Gui, okay?"
"Yes, I understand, Daddy."
Lingling nodded and politely said, "Hello, Aunt Mei Gui. My name is Lingling. Aunt Mei Gui, you’re really beautiful. When I grow up, I want to be as beautiful as you."
"Little sister, you’re so cute. You’ll definitely be prettier than Auntie when you grow up."
Rose lifted her hand, gently rubbed Lingling’s small face, and said with a light smile, "Lingling, remember, Auntie’s name is Huangfu Meigui."
At this moment, Wei Xu’s face became increasingly sullen and unpleasant. If earlier he hadn’t recognized Rose, now he surely recognized who Rose was.
Recently, Beijing has been turbulent, and Rose is one of the key figures stirring the waters. Information about Rose has long been placed on the desks of various major families.
Among the major families, Rose was categorized as one of the few people not to be provoked.
A woman is not frightening, a pretty woman is somewhat frightening, but a woman who is not only beautiful but also powerful is a disaster. Women are not like men; when acting, they may consider many aspects, but women won’t consider so much and have a terrifying penchant for revenge. If you offend them, they might retaliate without restraint, making your life miserable.
Furthermore, according to rumors in Beijing, Rose is described as a ruthless woman who was already a ruler in the underworld when she was in Modu, and she’s labeled as a femme fatale. Now, with increased power, Rose is truly akin to poison—whoever touches her is doomed.
Looking at Rose, Wei Xu’s heart sank to the bottom, a strong sense of doom emerging from within.
"This should be Miss Qiu Yingrong,"
Rose finally turned her head, set her gaze on Qiu Yingrong, and softly said, "Miss Qiu, I’m Huangfu Meigui, Lu Tianxing’s woman. It’s nice to meet you."
"Qiu Yingrong, Lingling’s mother. Nice to meet you too." After hearing Rose’s words, Qiu Yingrong took a deep breath and forced a smile.
"Rose, why did you come?" Lu Tianxing asked Rose.
"Angel called me over, saying you ran into trouble, and had me bring something for you."
Rose smiled and said, "By the way, here is what you needed; take a look."
While speaking, Rose handed the bag she was holding to Lu Tianxing.
"Lingling, get down from Daddy for a moment."
While speaking, Lu Tianxing gently placed Lingling on the ground from his arms and then took the bag Rose handed, opened it, and inside was a brand new dress, identical to what the woman next to Wei Xu was wearing.
Lu Tianxing casually glanced at it and then handed the bag to Qiu Yingrong: "Miss Qiu, see if this is the one."
Qiu Yingrong took the bag, and upon seeing the dress still new and with all tags and packaging intact, a hint of gratitude flashed across her face: "Mr. Lu, Miss Rose, thank you. I’m truly grateful."
"Don’t mention it; it’s just a dress, nothing significant, no need to thank me," Rose casually waved her hand.
For others, a limited edition dress might be something to dream of, but for her, it’s just a dress. Moreover, today she’s merely acting as a delivery person.
Qiu Yingrong nodded and said nothing more, instead slowly taking the dress out of the bag and walking towards Wei Xu and the woman, her tone indifferent: "I’ve found the dress; I’m compensating you now. Check if it’s identical, and give me a reasonable explanation."
Upon hearing Qiu Yingrong’s words and seeing her eyes filled with coldness, Wei Xu’s face grew increasingly unpleasant. Qiu Yingrong was clearly unwilling to let him go, intending to fight him to the end.
At this moment, Wei Xu felt an overwhelming sense of frustration. As the major heir of the Wei Family from Coal Province, ever since arriving at Qin Island—no, precisely, since meeting Lu Tianxing—Wei Xu felt that nothing went well, as if he was plagued by a curse, feeling suffocated each time. However, he dared not act rashly.
