"Ah, it was a social engagement, Dad asked me to go," Qiao Xiguan said.
No matter what, since Gu Yaoqi had actually agreed, even if it was a lie, it wasn't too egregious.
Thus, she felt fully justified in her heart.
Qi Huifen was displeased but refrained from losing her temper, "I heard you secured a lucrative development project for the Gu Family?"
"Just lucky, I guess," Qiao Xiguan modestly replied.
"No matter what achievements you've made, as a woman, you should be at home supporting your husband and educating your children. What kind of example are you setting by showing your face outside all day?" Qi Huifen sternly judged. "Now that the project is complete, just stay at home properly. Why go to work!"
"Dad has already arranged a position for me," Qiao Xiguan said. "Although I really want to follow Mom's advice, I can't let down Dad's expectations of me."
Qiao Xiguan's words sounded sincere, making her seem genuinely troubled.
