The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

Because she could tell from Bai Ye's gaze that he was serious, and if she made the first move, Bai Ye would definitely retaliate.

In fact, Bai Ye wasn't joking with her.

You can't hit a woman?

What ridiculous rules!

Now that we believe in gender equality, if women can hit men, then men can certainly hit women too.

If you don't hit her, then you're disrespecting women!

In this world today, any man who looks down on women should have his entire family executed!

Bai Ye is not the kind of person with a strong sense of moral purity!

People who are overly moral will only be morally blackmailed by others.

Bai Ye always believed that as long as he had no morals, no one could hold him hostage!

He wasn't the kind of crazy person who would run into the street and beat up women for no reason, but if a woman hit him, he wouldn't be soft-hearted either.

Qu Xiaoxiao chickened out.

After returning from studying in Europe and America, she came back to China and instead of living in the big villa her father, Qu Yongquan, bought for her, she moved into this apartment building. This was to improve her image in her father's eyes so that she could compete with her half-brother for the family fortune.

Instead of taking a punch from Bai Ye and then dying!

Seeing this, Qu Xiaoxiao's mother also felt she had pulled Qu Xiaoxiao back to her senses and comforted her:

"Xiaoxiao, let's calm down, calm down. Don't lower yourself to the level of those barbarians. We are all civilized people, we are all from high society. Why should we bother with such lowly people?"

She only has one daughter, Qu Xiaoxiao, how could she bear to let Qu Xiaoxiao be beaten by Bai Ye here?

It's better to swallow your anger than to get beaten up.

"What a load of rubbish about high society!" Bai Ye sneered. "Do you still think this is the Qing Dynasty? Wake up! The Qing Dynasty is long gone! In today's society, do you really think anyone still considers themselves an aristocrat? They're just a bunch of old thugs who got lucky and caught the wave of the times, unconsciously enjoying the benefits of the era. Do they really think they're so great? A bunch of idiots!"

"One likes to talk big and make sweeping generalizations, one is full of worldly airs, and the other is an old lady who still lives in the past with bound feet. They really are birds of a feather!"

"you you you……"

Qu Xiaoxiao's mother was also furious with Bai Ye.

Bai Ye's mouth is just too sharp.

Bai Ye already disliked Qu Xiaoxiao, and now that Qu Xiaoxiao's father has launched a sweeping attack on him, what else can he say? He'll just start a fight!

Upon arriving at her new house, Qu Xiaoxiao visited the neighbors with gifts, an act that immediately left a good impression on Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer. However, Qu Xiaoxiao's gift-giving was not to express her goodwill, but rather a display of wealth, as she soon threw a party in her room without any regard for the neighbors' feelings.

When Andy called the police to report Qu Xiaoxiao for disturbing the peace, Qu Xiaoxiao initially wanted to confront her, but was intimidated by Andy's powerful aura and meticulous language. Not forgetting this experience, Qu Xiaoxiao didn't forget her lesson. When she saw Andy driving a luxury car, she immediately asked a friend to investigate Andy's background. Upon learning that the car wasn't registered in her name, she immediately concluded that Andy was a mistress and openly discussed this with her neighbor in the elevator, showing no mercy. Later, when Qu Xiaoxiao learned that Andy was a graduate of Columbia Business School and a Wall Street executive, she immediately changed her attitude, bringing gifts to Andy's home to apologize whenever she encountered problems at work.

When you need someone, you use them; when you don't, you discard them. Qu Xiaoxiao understands that Andy is someone she can't afford to offend, both in terms of ability and connections. She also considers currying favor with Andy, this high-achieving student, so she can fully utilize Andy's value when needed. This is essentially the reality for wealthy people: in front of those with stronger backgrounds and greater abilities, they can only set aside their pride and willingly act subservient.

When it comes to being calculating, Fan Shengmei is probably the first person that comes to mind. She's single-mindedly focused on finding a rich husband and living a life of luxury. Her relationships are driven by pragmatism, but aside from romantic love, Fan Shengmei is genuinely devoted to her friends and family. However, the seemingly brave and decisive Qu Xiaoxiao is far more calculating than Fan Shengmei when it comes to being calculating.

Qu Xiaoxiao is always clingy towards Andy, while she looks down on Fan Shengmei from the bottom of her heart, and she doesn't hide her hurtful attitude towards the naive and innocent Qiu Yingying. She is relatively polite to Guan Juer, who comes from an intellectual family, because Guan Juer has a gentle personality and won't hurt her. In addition, Guan Juer is studying finance and has excellent English skills, which can be of use when needed.

While helping others, Qu Xiaoxiao also hurts them without reservation. She labels others as "gold diggers" and "fools" based on her own subjective opinions. Instead of showing compassion to the weak, she inflicts unrestrained harm. Qu Xiaoxiao's power dynamics are even more blatant; in her world, there is no equality. Whoever is more useful or stronger than herself becomes her friend, and the feelings of the weak are disregarded.

Similarly, Qu Xiaoxiao is equally greedy when it comes to love. Upon seeing the handsome and confident Dr. Zhao, she quickly breaks down his defenses, becomes his girlfriend, and maintains an air of mystery in their relationship. However, when Qu Xiaoxiao's friends say, "He's not even in our circle," Qu Xiaoxiao replies, "Let's have some fun first." Indeed, for them, love isn't so pure. The reason Qu Xiaoxiao ultimately ends up with Dr. Zhao is simply because his knowledge and talent far surpass hers.

If Dr. Zhao were just an ordinary person from an ordinary family, with an ordinary education and only a good-looking face, then he might just be a passerby among Qu Xiaoxiao's many partners, just like Qu Lianjie treated Fan Shengmei—use him if he could, and discard him if he couldn't.

"Ding--!"

In the tense atmosphere, the elevator doors opened.

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying seemed to be fleeing as they got off the elevator and ran towards their room.

Qiu Yingying leaned against the door, breathing heavily: "Guan Guan, that was so scary!"

Guan Juer was also quite frightened, saying, "I almost thought they were going to fight in the elevator!"

Qiu Yingying: "That handsome guy looks so good, but his temper is so bad. I don't dare to think about it now, I'm afraid he'll beat me up in my dreams!"

Guan Juer was initially quite nervous, but upon hearing Qiu Yingying's words, she burst out laughing.

"Yingying, aren't you exaggerating a bit too much?"

Chapter 247 You think you're so good at fighting? What good is being good at fighting! To survive in this world, you need power and connections!

Before Qu Xiaoxiao stepped out of the elevator, she took a special look at the elevator buttons.

23th floor.

"Fine, I'm going to stick with you. I don't believe that after all these years of roaming the martial world, I can't even handle something as simple as this."

Qu Xiaoxiao thought to herself:

"You think you're so good at fighting? What good is fighting if you can't get by in this world? You need power and connections!"

In Qu Xiaoxiao's opinion, Bai Ye didn't win the verbal battle; he just relied on his muscles to scare her into not daring to say anything for a while.

He'll understand when he spends more time with Bai Ye; in today's society, whoever has money is the boss!

Qu Xiaoxiao and her parents got off the elevator and arrived at her home, room 2203.

"Xiaoxiao, did you see that? What kind of good people can live in a place like this?" Qu Yongquan roared, "No, you can't stay here anymore. Move back with us right now! We're porcelain, we don't need to bump into those broken tiles."

“That’s right, Xiaoxiao!” Aunt Qu chimed in, “Associating with these uncultured people lowers our standards! It’s too dangerous to live with these lowlifes. If something happens, it will be too late to regret it.”

Qu Xiaoxiao's idea of ​​exploiting Qu Yongquan's sympathy was discussed with her mother and she had her mother's consent. However, Qu's mother never expected that she would be so surprised by Bai Ye's surprise attack on her as soon as she arrived in this low-class neighborhood. It was too frightening!

Life safety is more important than fighting over inheritance.

You can't expect someone to die before the money is spent, can you?

"Oh dear, Mom and Dad, it's not as serious as you're making it out to be," Qu Xiaoxiao said helplessly. "You saw how arrogant and domineering that person was, but did he really dare to hit anyone? Or was he just trying to scare us? Now that I think about it, no matter how harshly we cursed at him, as long as we didn't strike first, he wouldn't have found a reason to do so. At most, he would just argue with us verbally."

Things have come to this point, is it really possible for Qu Xiaoxiao to run away with her tail between her legs? Absolutely not!

Leaving aside the fact that she condescended to live in such a community and deceived Qu Yongquan's trust, it's impossible for her to just let this go after suffering such a huge loss!

She absolutely had to find a way to make that person completely obedient!

Otherwise, she wouldn't be called Qu Xiaoxiao!

So how could she possibly listen to her parents and leave immediately?

"Dad, the environment here is indeed not as good as our home, but it's definitely much better than when you started out." Qu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "Let me start from here, work hard, take one step at a time, and eventually reach a position where I can stand on equal footing with you."

Qu Yongquan was quite pleased to hear what Qu Xiaoxiao said. What parent wouldn't like their child to be ambitious and to stand on their shoulders to achieve even greater things?

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying would probably want to curse if they heard this. For them, owning their own house here is already the end of their lives. But for Qu Xiaoxiao, this is just the beginning. Living here means hard work and struggle.

"If our daughter has this idea, then let her have it for now!" Qu Yongquan pondered for a moment and said, "But Xiaoxiao, if there's any problem, if that person wants to take revenge on you or something, you have to call your father immediately!"

"Alright, alright, I understand!" Qu Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously and said, "In today's society, who would dare to bully or assault someone? That person is just a bully who's poor and arrogant! At most, I'll just avoid him in the future."

Avoid provoking them?

hum!

How can it be!

This matter is not over until I make him kneel down and apologize to me!

Qu Xiaoxiao went through a lot of trouble to finally persuade her parents to come back, and only then did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Fighting wits with her parents is more tiring than figuring out how to deal with other people.

After drinking a glass of water, Qu Xiaoxiao thought for a while about how to get revenge.

After a while.

"Hmm, I need to think about this carefully..."

Qu Xiaoxiao looked at the chocolates on the table, and a thought suddenly struck her: she remembered Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying, whom she had met in the elevator earlier; they seemed to live on the same floor as her.

"Look at that girl, she seems a bit naive. We could try to win her over, and use her to do our dirty work if something happens in the future!"

Without hesitation, Qu Xiaoxiao picked up a box of chocolates from the table, strode over with a flamboyant air, and knocked on the door of apartment 2202.

"Bang bang bang!"

Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying, who were discussing Bai Ye and Qu Xiaoxiao's family in the room, opened the door with a puzzled look and saw Qu Xiaoxiao. They couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

"W-What's wrong?"

Qiu Yingying mustered her courage and asked.

"I'm really sorry about what happened in the elevator just now. My dad isn't very good at expressing himself, so please don't mind him! Oh, and this is for you!"

Qu Xiaoxiao handed over the chocolate in her hand and said:

"Consider this a small gift. Please take care of me in the future."

“My name is Qiu Yingying, and this is Guan Juer. We rent room 2202.”

Qiu Yingying took the chocolate with a silly grin on her face:

"If you need anything in the future, just knock on the door!"

They exchanged a few pleasantries.

The two then said goodbye.

"Yingying!" Guan Juer said helplessly, "You're being too hasty. Judging from what happened in the elevator today, neither Qu Xiaoxiao nor that guy upstairs are easy to mess with! Don't take this kind of... kindness too seriously!"

"Uh……"

Qiu Yingying recalled the scene in the elevator just now and felt... that things were indeed not good.

If something really happens to Qu Xiaoxiao, ordinary girls like them probably can't really help her.

"But my dad said, 'It's never wrong to be polite, and a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative...'"

Qiu Yingying scratched her head:

"Never mind, Guan Guan, should I return this box of chocolates?"

Guan Juer said speechlessly:

“If we return it now, Qu Xiaoxiao might think that we look down on her! We’ve made enemies out of nothing.”
