Chapter Twenty-Seven: Equivalent Exchange
"Stop!"
Qiao Lu's face was full of anger, but soon, he remembered Xiang Zizhen's cold words to her last night:
"I will not ask for an illegitimate daughter to be a young lady in my family."
She tried her best to marry Xiang Zizhen and become the envy of everyone's Mrs. Xiang, now the time is not half a month, once Xiang Zizhen really divorces her, then what face does she have to meet!
She can't get a divorce!
The only way is not to let Qiao Chongjiang hold a press conference and continue to bury the truth!
"Joey." A hypocritical smile appeared on her face: "Xiang Jia...... You also know something, once, once there is a rumor that I am an illegitimate daughter, then my marriage, my future, and my life will all be ruined, we are sisters, and you don't want to see me fall to that point. β
She grabbed Qiao Ai's arm and begged: "Look, you are married to Zhou Chengyan now, he is so good to you, and the identity of the daughter of the Qiao family is not so important to you, so can you go and talk to Zhou Chengyan and let him cancel today's press conference, just treat it as my sister begging you, sister." β
"I can't afford your sister!" Qiao Ai shook off her hand suddenly, anger rushed to her head, and exploded, and the hatred that had been precipitated for twenty years completely gushed out, and she sneered: "What is the identity of the daughter of the Qiao family is not so important to me anymore?" My surname is Qiao, and my mother is Qiao Chongjiang's wife who was married to Ming Media back then! Why do you mother and daughter enjoy flattery and glory while my mother and I are treated like rats in the gutter and ridiculed for the rest of our lives? β
Qiao Lu's face turned pale, and after a moment, she screamed, "Qiao Ai, how can you talk like that?" I beg you, what more do you want! β
"You beg me?" Qiao Ai couldn't help laughing anymore: "What are you?" If you beg me, I'm going to let you go? Then why didn't you let go of my mother back then, and why didn't you let me go in the past 20 years? Jolu, I'm telling youβ"
Her eyes were full of hatred, and her words were bitterly cold: "Over the years, everything your mother and daughter have done to our mother and daughter, and every basin of dirty water you have spilled, I have remembered it one by one, and I have never forgotten it for a day. I might as well tell you that today is just the beginning. β
"I will beat your mother and daughter back to their original form, and I will snatch back all the things that your mother and daughter snatched from our mother and daughter little by little, and I will never let you go!"
She didn't look back and said, "Katsuo, let's go." β
Qiao Lu was stunned by her bloodthirsty eyes and words, and stood in place, unable to move.
Qiao Ai raised her hand expressionlessly and kept pressing the elevator.
"Joey." Gu Shengnan grabbed her hand with some worry.
"I'm fine." Once the years of hatred were vented, Qiao Ai's brain was even faintly clouded, and she needed something to divert her attention.
"Dingβ"
The elevator opened, Qiao Ai stepped in, pressed down the descent, and when the elevator door slowly closed, Qiao Lu finally reacted, she ran over quickly, stretched out an arm, and the elevator door was forced to open again.
"What else do you want to say?" Joey's tone was cold.
Qiao Lu really realized that Qiao Ai would not let her go easily this time, and she swallowed her saliva: "Qiao Ai, you let me go this time." β
Qiao Ai's eyes mocked, and just as she was about to speak, Qiao Lu's next sentence was like a thunderbolt exploding in her ears: "Didn't you always want to know the specific circumstances of your mother's death?" β
Qiao Ai's eyes flashed with shock, and she grabbed Qiao Lu's arm with her backhand: "What do you mean by this?!" β
Qiao Lu swallowed her saliva, Qiao Ai's performance made her feel more confident: "As long as you promise to let me go, I will tell you what happened back then." β
Qiao Lu gritted her teeth.
When her mother first had symptoms of a cold and coughed all day, she asked, and her mother just gently touched her head and said, "It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days." β
But she only lived in the school for a week, and when she came back, she only saw her mother's portrait and a notice of ineffective pneumonia rescue!
Over the years, she has not suspected that her mother's death is still hidden, but there has been no sufficient evidence!
Moreover, too long has passed, and the evidence has long been drowned in the torrent of time, leaving her with nothing to do.
Joe doesn't want to know the truth all the time.
Gu Shengnan stepped forward and said for Qiao Ai: "How do we know if what you said is true or false." β
"I've come to this point, how can I dare to lie to her." Qiao Lu understood that she had taken back the initiative, and smiled proudly: "My mother still has all the cases of your mother's hospitalization back then, as long as you let me go, how about I give it to you?" β
Long......
Qiao Ai opened his mouth hoarsely: "...... Good. β
Qiao Lu's eyes were full of surprise: "Really? β
"As long as what you give me is true."
"Good!" Qiao Lu was overjoyed: "Then let's go back to Qiao's house to get it." β
"Qiao Ai, you should think about this matter carefully." Gu Shengnan frowned, she had understood Qiao Lu's scheming of the mother and daughter.
"It's okay." Qiao Ai took a deep breath, took out a tissue, and wiped off the palm that she had accidentally pinched under the excitement she had just made, the voice was not loud or small, just enough for Qiao Lu to hear: "If what she gave me is fake, then I will personally hold a press conference." β
When Qiao Lu heard this, a flash of anger flashed on her face, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Qiao Ai knew that Gu Shengnan still had work in the afternoon, so she rejected her proposal to go to Qiao's house with her, got into Qiao Lu's car, and went back to Qiao's house together.
As soon as Qiao Chongjiang saw her, his face was full of annoyance and anger, and he immediately shouted angrily, "You still have the face to come back!" β
"This house has half of my mother, my mother is gone, and half of her is left to me, this is also my home, why can't I come back." Qiao Ai didn't want to bother with him, so she looked directly at Qiao Lu: "Where's the thing?" β
Qiao Lu and Li Lan glanced at each other, and the mother and daughter went to get things together.
Qiao Chongjiang's face turned blue when she was pushed, "What if you marry Zhou Chengyan?" After another year and a half, he will lose his freshness to you, if there is no Qiao family, you think you will still be able to sit in the position of the young grandmother of the Zhou family by then! β
"That was a year and a half later." Qiao Ai said: "I don't bother you. β
"You!" Qiao Chongjiang's fingers kept trembling: "You really have hard wings, you want to learn from your eldest brother, right?" β
Qiao Ai directly ignored his words and let him jump to his feet angrily.
He is just trying to get it back in front of her because he was disgraced in front of Zhou Chengyan yesterday.
