Qiao Qiao doesn’t speak up, of course she has her reasons!
It’s not easy raising a child alone all these years, probably for Old Two’s sake, right?
The thing with Qin Mobai back then probably had so complications, but nothing that couldn’t be turned over.
Thinking of this, the old man looked at Qiao Qiao, seeking her opinion, "Should the wedding wait until after the baby is born or do it now?"
Qiao Qiao looked at the old man, "Grandpa, let’s wait until after the baby is born. I wouldn’t look good in a wedding dress right now, would I?"
She smiled, trying her best to hide her earlier nervousness.
The old man nodded, probably sensing her concerns.
The people he’s having investigate this haven’t found anything yet, it seems they need to keep looking.
His gaze fell on Qiao Qiao, becoming much more amiable, "Alright then, off you go, or Old Two will start suspecting sothing about ."
Qiao Qiao responded, stood up, left the bedroom, and as she raised her head she saw the old lady waiting in the hallway.
The old lady saw Qiao Qiao co out unhard, "That old man didn’t give you a hard ti, did he?"
Qiao Qiao smiled and shook her head, "No, he didn’t."
The old lady still wasn’t assured, "Good. If he hands you a check for a million or ten million to leave Old Two, don’t you dare agree, how can Old Two be that cheap—"
Before she could finish, the old man ca out, his face stern as he looked at the old lady, "Have you been reading too many novels lately?"
The old lady, "..."
Oh, it seems so!
That scenario is sothing only found in novels.
The old man’s face darkened as he looked at the old lady, "You’re fooling around too much every day."
The old lady was furious, glared at the old man, but with Qiao Qiao there, she didn’t lose her temper.
The old man bypassed her and went to the living room to watch the news.
The old lady stood there, angrily glaring in the direction of the old man.
Qiao Qiao stood to the side, unsure of what to say, uneasy about staying or leaving.
The old lady snapped back, looked at Qiao Qiao, "Second Young Master is waiting for you upstairs, go on up, take a rest, and I’ll call you both down for lunch."
Qiao Qiao said "Okay," and quickly went upstairs.
Returning to her room, she unexpectedly saw Qin Shaonan lying on her bed.
Qin Shaonan lay there, his gaze directed toward Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao walked over and sat at the head of the bed.
Qin Shaonan, "Did Grandpa make things difficult for you?"
Qiao Qiao recalled what Grandma had said, "Yeah, Grandpa offered ten million to leave you, but I said Qin Shaonan is worth at least a billion. I won’t leave without a billion."
Qin Shaonan looked at Qiao Qiao, "What if soone offers you a billion?"
"Then I’ll leave for a day and co back. A billion is a lot, and I’d be a fool not to take it."
Qiao Qiao looked at Qin Shaonan.
Qin Shaonan’s expression improved a lot.
Qiao Qiao didn’t see Nini, her gaze fell on Qin Shaonan.
Qin Shaonan, "She’s sleeping over there."
Sleeping at this ti?
Qiao Qiao listened, a bad feeling rising in her heart, she turned, and quickly went to the side room.
Upon entering, she picked up Nini, hurriedly touched Nini’s forehead, it wasn’t too hot, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Nini had already opened her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering, "Qiao Baby, what’s wrong?"
Qiao Qiao shook her head, "I’m fine."
Nini touched Qiao Qiao’s cheek, "But Qiao Baby, you don’t look good, why are you so pale?"
Qiao Qiao, "That’s because Qiao Baby has a great complexion, so she’s this fair."
Nini pouted, but didn’t Mommy used to always ask her that? Does that an she doesn’t have a good complexion?
