Chapter 1392: Still Dreaming
“It’s not a matter of whether I want to go or not.”
She was expelled from school and was given a suspended sentence by the court for spreading malicious rumors after the Qiao family fell.
The sentence was two years, with a two-year reprieve.
In other words, she wouldn’t be able to take any exams or wait abroad for the next two years while she was on probation.
!!
If she performed well in the next two years and fought for a reduced sentence, she might not go to jail when the two years were up.
Otherwise, she would still have to serve her sentence in the detention center.
The Shen family and Shen Jingyan also cut ties with their family upon seeing that she no longer had any value.
Because of this, Qiao Chen returned to Rao City.
She had lost her proud background and her fine jewelry. She had been beaten back into the ranks of ordinary people. The pain was no different from falling into hell for her.
During this period of time, she looked extremely haggard and had collapsed.
“I just think Auntie will be upset if I go.”
Qiao Chen bit her pale lips, her eyes evasive and gloomy.
“Everyone has been talking about Qiao Nian these past few days… I’m afraid she dislikes me even more.”
Shen Qiongzhi pressed her hand to her chest with heartache, her eyes filled with hatred. “It’s all that ingrate’s fault! Our family wouldn’t have bee like this if it weren’t for her. Your father even… Forget it, forget it. He’s just a stubborn person. He still thinks that it’s our fault.”
“However…” Shen Qiongzhi thought of something and perked up. “Chen Chen, don’t be too sad. I heard that her hand is injured. She won’t get a good ranking even if she participates in this petition!”
In a good mood, she helped Qiao Chen straighten her collar and said in a low voice, “I’ll use my connections to get two tickets to watch the petition live. We’ll go and watch it together. We’ll see with our own eyes how that ingrate falls from the clouds.
“Isn’t she arrogant? Hmph. First High School even organized students to watch the petition. It’s a good opportunity for those people to see how the so-called pride of First High School will e last place.”
“Qiao Nian’s hand is injured?” Qiao Chen had been tormented by the news of the petition for the past few days. At this moment, she looked at Shen Qiongzhi in surprise. “Mom, is what you said true?”
Shen Qiongzhi saw that she was grabbing her hand tightly, as if she was grabbing onto a life-saving straw. Her heart ached even more. She stroked her hair and said gently, “Of course, when have I ever lied to you? That little ingrate’s hand is broken. She can’t use one of her hands. Your uncle told me about this. He’s in Beijing and is more well-informed than us. He already said that Qiao Nian’s hand is broken, so it must be true. Let’s just wait and see!”
Qiao Chen’s heart suddenly jumped, and she felt as if she had been injected with vitality. She took a deep breath and exhaled the turbid air in her chest. She felt much better.
As it happened, Fu Ge called at this moment.
She didn’t waste any more time. She accepted the call and told Fu Ge that she would be there soon. Then, she held Shen Qiongzhi’s hand. “Mom, let’s go.”
Fu Ge came back this time to celebrate Madam Fu’s birthday.
The Fu family had fallen a lot in the past year, but they still had a place in the small circle of Rao City. There were still 3,000 nails on a dilapidated ship, not to mention the Fu family, who was very powerful in Rao City.
However, no matter how strong the Fu family was… it was still inparable to their peak a year ago.
The Qiao family was defeated overnight and fell into the ranks of ordinary people.
The Fu family was a little better.
Ye Wangchuan did not kill them on Ye Qichen’s account, but the Fu family was still struggling.
