Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 275
Chapter 275: Xiang Huai’s Little Idol Has Fallen (9)
Xue Sheng was interrupted and frowned at her.
Xue Gui chided, “What are you going to say? When did you have the right to interrupt when the adults are speaking? I think you really deserve a beating!”
After saying that, he turned to look at Ye Li and Xue Sheng. “Big Brother, Sister-in-law, you guys really have to teach her the rules. Otherwise, if she doesn’t leave, she will only embarrass our Xue family!”
It was indeed rude of Xue Xi to interrupt the elders so frequently.
However, Ye Li knew that Xue Xi was only worried and confused.
Xue Sheng’s heart would only feel warm. How could he blame her?
He gently looked at Xue Xi and said, “Xixi, forget it.”
Xue Xi turned to look at Xiao Song. “This matter is not that simple. She has a problem!”
Her words made Xiao Song’s pupils constrict.
However, she had been working hard for so many years and had long learned to not show her emotions. She instantly put on an aggrieved expression. “Big Miss, you, you…”
After saying that, she turned to look at Xue Sheng and Xue Gui. “Yes, it’s all my fault. That’s why I didn’t let this business deal go through. This matter has nothing to do with CEO Xue!”
Before Xue Sheng could speak, Xue Gui sneered. “Why? Are you planning to use an assistant as a shield now? Brother, your methods are too dishonest! Our Xue family is responsible for our own actions. What kind of man are you to push out a small assistant?”
Xue Gui then turned to look at Old Master Xue. “Dad, as you can see, he’s pushing others to do whatever he wants no matter what happens. He doesn’t have any sense of responsibility at all. Is such a person suitable to be the chairman? No wonder after he took over as chairman, the company’s performance declined instead of rising!”
He lifted his chin slightly. “Moreover, Brother, the military pledge you made is one where you’d leave of your own accord if you did not succeed. Are you going to go back on your word now?”
The moment he said this, Xiao Song shouted hypocritically, “CEO Xue, don’t say that! It’s all my fault! Can’t I just leave immediately?”
Xue Gui did not speak, but Xue Sheng defended, “No! This has nothing to do with Xiao Song.”
He turned to look at Xiao Song and said, “I’m not that kind of person. If something happens, I won’t let my subordinates take the blame. Although I still don’t know why, I’ll take responsibility for the entire matter.”
Xue Sheng had always been a responsible man.
When Xiao Song heard this, guilt flashed across her eyes. However, when she thought of her future, she steeled her heart and lowered her head without saying anything.
Xue Xi stared at her.
If she had a superior like her father, she would definitely not betray him. This Xiao Song was too evil.
She said straightforwardly, “There’s a problem with her translation.”
Xiao Song’s expression changed drastically.
Xue Sheng was also stunned. “What?”
Immediately, he reacted. “You know Italian?”
He did not remember his daughter knowing how to do this. Moreover, the kindergarten would probably only teach English at most and would not teach this, right?
Xue Xi shook her head obediently. “No.”
However, she had something to learn again!
Xiao Song heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Xue Sheng also smiled. “If you don’t know how to speak it, how do you know that there’s a problem with Xiao Song’s translation?”
He had always been trusting of people and never used them. Hence, the people around him rarely betrayed him. Xiao Song had been with him for so many years, but he still would not easily believe that she had done something.
However, Xue Xi was his daughter and he would not embarrass her, so he listened attentively to her.
Xiao Song became even more pretentious and said aggrievedly, “Missy, I’m proficient in eight languages. Are you suspecting that what I said in Italian was wrong? I can get Mr. Steve to testify for me!”
She looked at Steve, who had alighted from the car and was stopped by Xue Xi. She said in Italian, “Mr. Steve, what do you think of my Italian? Can you answer this question in simple English?”
Steve gave him a thumbs up. “Great!”
Only then did Xiao Song look at Xue Xi. “Missy, do you believe me now? Moreover, this is not my first time coming into contact with an Italian. I was the one who accompanied Mr. Xue to discuss our previous collaboration. We even came into contact with French, Japanese, and Korean people. Don’t worry about my business level.”
Xue Sheng also nodded.
Xue Gui mocked, “Xiao Song is Big Brother’s woman. Do you think you can just push the blame to her? You even found such a ridiculous excuse!”
Liu Yiqiu also said, “Xixi, it’s not that I want to nag at you, but since you don’t know anything about business, don’t speak. If you want to find an excuse for your father, don’t blame Xiao Song’s translation for it! You’re acting too much like you know everything when you don’t. You’re only pretending to know when you really have no clue! Fortunately, this is our own house. If word got out, it wouldn’t be too embarrassing!”
Xue Sheng could not take it lying down when the two of them criticized Xue Xi like this. He immediately said, “Are you guys naturally good at doing business? Why can’t the child speak in front of her own family? Xixi, tell me, why do you think there’s a problem with Xiao Song’s translation?”
Xue Xi lowered her eyes and slowly said, “I just asked her to translate two sentences.”
Just as Xiao Song was about to say something, Xue Xi suddenly opened her mouth and copied her two sentences in Italian perfectly. Her tone was exactly the same as what Xiao Song had just said!
Xiao Song was stunned.
After saying that, Xue Xi slowly asked, “Both my sentences were questions. May I ask, why is there no repetition in your two sentences?”
Xiao Song: “?”
She looked at Xue Xi in shock and disbelief.
How could this person memorize such an awkward language just by listening to it once?
However, she could not admit it now. She definitely could not admit it.
Xiao Song’s mind spun quickly and she quickly regained her smile. “Missy, the words used in different languages are also different. I think you know how to use English as well. For example, they use ‘am,’ but we do not use ‘am.’ Although it can be translated into Chinese, there is no exact equivalent.”
Is that so?
Xue Xi knew that she was lying, but she could not produce any evidence.
Italian was not common, and very few people knew this language…
Xue Xi frowned and was about to say something when Liu Yiqiu and Xue Gui sneered. “I thought you were amazing. If you don’t know how to speak Italian, don’t create trouble here.”
Xue Gui looked at Xue Sheng. “Brother, don’t argue over such meaningless matters. Let’s get down to business. Are you going to give up the position of chairman?”
Xue Xi frowned. Just as she was racking her brains, a deep voice sounded.
Xue Xi suddenly turned around and saw Xiang Huai walking over slowly. He spoke a stream of fluent language. Although she could not understand it, it was similar to Xiao Song’s earlier language—it was Italian!
Xiang Huai could speak Italian and was very familiar with it!
