Chapter 707: Trying To Exterminate The Huo Family? (4)
His younger cousin had asked him to keep it a secret. She said that their grandmother would be upset if she found out that Gu Qingyao had been “neglecting” medicine to do business instead.
He thought that if his grandmother found out that he had involved his younger cousin in business, she would certainly beat him up, so he kept the secret.
In his eyes, his younger cousin could do anything. Now she was telling him she even understood electronics. She was driving him crazy!
Gu Qingyao chuckled. “So! You had better maintain a low profile and not bully Eldest Cousin!”
Second Cousin: “…”
Second Cousin’s fawning voice immediately came over the phone. “Sister! I would never dare to compete with Eldest Brother! He is so competent, able and decisive. His business is growing. The whole family says he is the most outstanding of us all!
“What are my small achievements compared to Eldest Brother! Younger Cousin, you must help me. I’m so stupid that, without you, Eldest Brother will leave me in the dust, wu wu wu…”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
She ignored the idiot and interrupted him. “What has the Huo family been up to recently?”
When he heard that, Second Cousin snorted coldly and said disdainfully. “What else can they be up to? They’re up to no good as usual!”
Over the past few years, the Huo family had been dragging the Qiao family down.
That fellow, Huo Lin, had pursued Qiao Yuying for many years. Gu Qingyao’s sudden appearance a few years ago embarrassed him. He had even pretended to be the victim and asked Qiao Yuying for favors.
Qiao Yuying had ignored him and told him clearly that a relationship between them was impossible.
In the end, the fellow weakened. He pretended to be drunk and pleaded with Qiao Yuying not to be angry with him. He said that he had made a mistake.
In the end, the fellow stopped mentioning Gu Qingyao. He continued to act as though he was deeply in love and found ways to curry Gu Qingyao’s favor.
To be honest, although they had not really liked Huo Lin in the past, they had not actually disliked him either.
They felt that even if they did not quite like the fellow, he was still a man who had loved Young Aunt for so many years. As his juniors, they should at least show some respect.
But in the years since Gu Qingyao’s appearance, this fellow’s behavior had grown increasingly disgusting. When they carefully thought about his past behavior, they realized why Qiao Yuying never fancied him.
From then on, they realized that each member of the Huo family was more shameless than the next.
The entire family was clearly at odds with Qiao’s Jewelry. Ignoring the fact that Huo Lin was pursuing Qiao Yuying, his sons were actually expressing their interest in Gu Qingyao. This utterly disgusted the Qiao family!
Gu Qingyao laughed. “Are they still imitating you?”
When Second Cousin heard that, an indescribable look of disgust appeared on his face. He even looked a little wronged. “Of course they’re still imitating me.”
This did not mean that the Huo family’s sons were working with him, but that they were copying him.
Their products were of inferior quality. But their packaging and promotional material were identical to Second Cousin’s products. It was truly disgusting.
But he could not accuse them of imitating! Besides similarities in their products, it was hard to prove anything.
They had to market any new products that they released. The Huo family’s antics were ruining the Qiao family’s reputation.
They had spent a lot of effort to develop their products and thought of all kinds of ways to market them. But the moment they had some success, the Huo family would copy them. It was really awful.
