After the True Heiress Travels Back
Chapter 550 Red Matches Green

Chapter 550: Chapter 550 Red Matches Green

Zhuge Qingqing indeed did it on purpose.

The money originally spent on Shi Yiqing and Min Zekai wasn’t necessary in such a large amount.

But...

Don’t forget she is the number one strategist of Wolong Town!

This title isn’t just for show.

As the number one strategist, of course she wouldn’t let Shi Yiqing enjoy the benefits for nothing.

They’re all adults, don’t they even understand the simple logic that one must give something to get something in return?

Min Zekai didn’t catch on at first, he simply thought Zhuge Qingqing was showing off her newfound wealth, planning to flaunt it when the opportunity arose.

Who knew this was Zhuge Qingqing’s true intention?

If they had only spent a little of Zhuge Qingqing’s money, it wouldn’t have been a big deal.

Even if they breached the agreement, it wouldn’t have been too far.

But this nearly twenty thousand expenditure, if they don’t give Zhuge Qingqing an explanation, then they really can’t justify it.

Zhuge Qingqing wanted exactly this effect.

After Shi Yiqing heard Min Zekai’s analysis of the pros and cons, she couldn’t help complaining, "If you knew, why didn’t you say it earlier?"

Min Zekai felt her complaint was a bit unreasonable.

He hadn’t realized Zhuge Qingqing’s malicious intent from the start either.

Besides, even if he had known, what could he have done?

Could they have refused the "sponsorship" or what?

Shi Yiqing wouldn’t really go and sleep under the bridge in a storage room.

Moreover, this was their problem, the two of them.

Why should Shi Yiqing point the finger at him?

He wasn’t Shi Yiqing’s personal nanny; if she didn’t pay attention to these details herself, who could she blame?

In short, Min Zekai was getting increasingly dissatisfied with Shi Yiqing.

Zhuge Qingqing couldn’t care less whether they were willing or reluctant.

She said to Shi Yiqing, "Now you see, right? It’s only right and natural to pay back what you owe."

"Unless you can give me the money back right now, otherwise..."

She pointed to Shi Yaoguang’s dress hem, "Go carry the dress hem then."

Shi Yiqing shook her head, thinking that a mere twenty thousand yuan really wasn’t much at all.

If she could, she would have liked to smack the money right onto Zhuge Qingqing’s face.

But...

Reality doesn’t allow it.

Shi Yiqing wanted to give the audience eye drops during the livestream, hinting at how hateful Zhuge Qingqing was.

But she didn’t know that the viewers in the livestream had been shocked by Zhuge Qingqing’s domineering behavior.

From the moment Zhuge Qingqing led them into the Siheyuan, the live chat was full of envy, wishing they could soul-transfer into Zhuge Qingqing.

"If I could own a Siheyuan mansion at Zhuge Qingqing’s age, and several other equally priced mansions, I would also be willing to be the poor little thing raised on others’ charity."

"The hardships of the first half of life are for the sweetness of the second half."

"You all envy Zhuge Qingqing for being rich and want to soul-transfer into her, but I’m different, I want to be her lackey!"

Speaking of this, someone in the livestream brought up Li Yebai.

Li Yebai was previously the one closest to becoming Zhuge Qingqing’s lackey.

Or rather, at that point, he had already successfully become a lackey.

But because he was short-sighted, he took the initiative to back out.

Zhuge Qingqing was very magnanimous and didn’t take it to heart.

Originally, everyone was on Li Yebai’s side.

After learning of Zhuge Qingqing’s worth, they all called out to Li Yebai.

Asking if he regretted his decision.

After the program ended.

Li Yebai came forward in person to respond to this question.

Thanks for the invite, but now, it’s all about regret, deep regret.

Then reaping a torrent of haha’s from netizens.

Of course, all of that would come later.

For now, Shi Yiqing, unable to argue with Zhuge Qingqing, much less defy her plans, could only take reluctant action according to Zhuge Qingqing’s arrangements.

Carrying the hem of Shi Yaoguang’s dress was something she had never even considered doing.

Even when Shi Yaoguang had just been acknowledged by the Shi Family, she hadn’t stooped so low to curry favor, not even to pull the wool over Shi Yaoguang’s eyes.

But now, because of Zhuge Qingqing, because of a measly twenty thousand yuan, she had given in!

And she had done so in front of so many people!

This was all happening live on a stream.

After the stream went out, she could only imagine how many people would see her in such a humiliated state; the very thought was intolerable.

Admittedly, she had anticipated some of the problems she might face.

But she had still underestimated the extent to which marketers would leech off the trend.

#The Dominant Princess Shi Yiqing Reduced to Being the True Heiress Shi Yaoguang’s Foot-Washing Maid? Is This Human Nature Twisted or Morality Decayed...#

This topic quietly climbed up the hot search on Weibo.

Fortunately for Shi Yiqing, she wasn’t looking at her phone and was unaware of this.

Shang Minghao happened to be busy with other matters and wasn’t following the trending topics either.

And so, the topic steadily climbed higher.

Within half an hour, many people were aware of the Dominant Princess Shi Yiqing acting as a "foot-washing maid" for the once true heiress Shi Yaoguang.

Although the actual truth was a bit different from Shi Yiqing being a foot-washing maid, it was close enough.

Shi Yiqing had totally lost face this time around.

When Shi Yiqing saw the message, she was seething with anger.

By then, getting angry was of little use.

After all, she could end up humiliating Shi Yaoguang for the sake of Zhuge Qingqing.

But Shi Yaoguang would never back down to her, so in this game, she was destined to kneel and walk.

...

Zhuge Qingqing led everyone back to the courtyard house to change clothes, with only herself and Shi Yaoguang changing outfits.

Besides giving Shi Yaoguang a bright red dress to wear, Zhuge Qingqing also changed into a green puffy dress with ruffled edges.

It goes without saying.

Tacky is indeed tacky.

Shi Yaoguang tried to advise her subtly, but she didn’t mind, "Sister Fairy, I know you mean well, but it’s okay, I quite like this color."

Because of Zhuge Qingqing’s styling, Shi Yiqing’s annoyance had lessened quite a bit.

Together, the two stood, perfectly exemplifying the old saying.

——Red with green, a total mismatch!

Shi Yiqing secretly rejoiced in her heart, treating Zhuge Qingqing as a joke.

But no sooner had she begun to feel delighted than saw Zhuge Qingqing tossing her and Min Zekai two sets of clothes.

One was a white suit, and the other was a maid’s dress.

Shi Yiqing was dumbfounded, "What do you mean by this?"

"Don’t you have a brain? Just put it on," Zhuge Qingqing huffed impatiently, as if she didn’t notice Shi Yiqing’s bad attitude?

Originally, she hadn’t planned to torment her, but since she was so averse to her...

Heh.

Min Zekai was still clueless that he had also been caught in the crossfire.

However, he was easy-going and didn’t mind changing his clothes.

Whereas Shi Yiqing was resentful and dragged her feet.

Zhuge Qingqing uttered a single sentence, and Shi Yiqing dared not delay any longer.

"I’m about to meet important guests soon. If you waste my time, you will compensate for all losses," she said.

Shi Yiqing acquiesced and changed her clothes, swallowing her pride. Dressed like a little maid, she stood behind Shi Yaoguang, holding the hem of her dress, and in her heart, Zhuge Qingqing became enemy number two.

The number one enemy, naturally, was Shi Yaoguang.
