"Hmph, I told her earlier, that she, no one in the entire Third would be worthy of her. At that time, I thought that I had made it clear enough that the girl, who looked weak and pure, did not know that her mind was so deep and scheming. "
"On the surface, you tell me that you are only a friend to Third, but that you definitely have no other intentions. Also, you promise me that you will keep your distance from Third. All these years, what she has shown is indeed the case, I thus thought that she really did not have any other thoughts towards Third, so after all these years, I did not make things difficult for her. "
"This girl is indeed good at disguising herself, but she fooled me instead." In the end, I was the one who let my guard down, misunderstood people, and wrongly believed this little girl. "
The more Elder Qiao said, the more indignant he became. He finally said, gnashing his teeth as he finished, "Does she think that just by obtaining our Qiao Family's Century Star, she would be able to marry into the Qiao Family and fly up the branch to become a phoenix? It was simply a pipe dream! I will definitely not let this unskilled woman marry Third! Even if everyone in Third knows about it, and everyone thinks that his wife is that girl, but I don't admit it, everything was just a waste of effort! "
Unconventional? A master in scheming?
Qiao Wei's heart chilled. He looked in disbelief at the old man who always had a kind face, but now, his face had suddenly turned into that of a scoundrel. "Grandfather, you watched Xiao Xi grow up when you were young. How can you say that about her?"
"Why can't I say that about her? She was the one who tried to seduce the Third, who was shameless to try to marry into a rich family, to enjoy the glory of being in the rich world. Hmph, no wonder when I first gave her ten million, she was unwilling to accept it. So she simply had a wolf's ambition, and looked down on this mere ten million. Elder Qiao growled in disgust, looked at Qiao Wei and said, "If she's as sensible as An Ruoyuan, then that's fine too, but if not, don't blame me for disregarding our past relationship!"
Ten million? Be as sensible as An Ruyuan?
Qiao Wei's face turned white, red light flickered in her eyes, "Grandfather, Xiao Xi was only twelve at the time. How can you do this to a child? "
She knew that what he said now was only the tip of the iceberg that he'd made for Xiao Xi.
The situation was really bad, she didn't even dare to think about it!
"If it wasn't for the fact that she was still a child and I had watched her grow up, I would have given her ten million to take the initiative to leave. but rather than using any other methods against her! " "If I had known earlier, she would encourage me to do such a thing during my birthday banquet, I would have ??"
"Grandfather, how did you become like this?" Qiao Wei was pained. "Are you still going to tell me that if such a thing had happened today, you would have already gotten rid of Xiao Xi?"
"I will make her regret knowing the Third!" Elder Qiao's face turned pale, his old eyes stared at Qiao Wei mercilessly and cruelly, and snorted, "You're just like An Ruo Yuan!"
"??" Qiao Wei's pupils shrank greatly.
He mentioned An-Ru-yuan twice.
Back then, the reason why Ruo Yuan broke up with her and married her quickly was because of what her grandfather had done to him.
Thinking of this possibility.
Qiao Wei's spine stiffened inch by inch as he looked at Elder Qiao with a pale face, "Grandfather, was it because of you that Ruo Yuan broke up with me back then?"
Elder Qiao squinted his eyes and suddenly changed into a loving expression. He held Qiao Wei's hand and spoke sincerely and sincerely, "Weiwei, the reason why Grandfather did this was for your own good. I didn't want you two to regret it in the future!"
Qiao Wei's teeth chattered as she slowly lowered her head. Seeing the old hand that was holding hers, tears suddenly rolled down her face and fell onto the back of his hand.
The liquid that fell on the back of his hand was refreshing!
"Weiwei, you can be at ease. Grandfather will definitely choose a family for you. With a moral character, you won't lose to a good man like that An Ruo Yuan. Trust Grandfather."
"Heh ??" Qiao Wei laughed lowly, raising her delicate little face that had long been covered by tears. Her pair of beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with dejection and disappointment, "Grandfather, there is only one An Ruo Yuan in this world that is the best in my heart. Where are you going to find me a better man?"
"Grandfather, you will never know how miserable these years have been for me. In the future, I will no longer be blissful, and I will no longer have a grandfather!"
In the past, she deeply loved An Ruo Yuan, but the hatred she had for him had also seeped into her bones.
She had always thought that he had failed her, that he had let her down, that he had forgotten all his promises and all his beauty.
But now, she knew that all her hatred was meaningless.
Because her unhappiness was none of his business.
On the contrary, she had let him down.
She should have known.
He loved her so much, how could he have changed his mind and fallen in love with someone else overnight?
She questioned him, but he only played it down to not loving her.
If he said he didn't love her, she would believe him!
He would rather she hated him than tell him what her grandfather had done to him.
Qiao Wei held onto his chest as tears fell like rain.
She firmly bit her lips and didn't look at Elder Qiao again. She coldly brushed his hand away and left the banquet without turning her head back.
She was worried that she would stay any longer, but she could not help but berate the old man who kept saying that he was good to them!
Elder Qiao watched her figure as she left in a hurry. Her face was carved with the marks of time by the sharp knife of time, and she sighed a little.
Shaking his head, Elder Qiao looked in a certain direction towards the crowd, only to see a burly man in black clothes and black pants giving him a slight nod.
Then, he turned towards the direction Qiao Wei left in, and followed.
Elder Qiao pursed his lips, his powerful eyes looking at the stage.
When he saw that the stage was already empty, his expression suddenly darkened as he quickly sca
ed his surroundings.
But he did not see Qiao Jinglian or Ye Xi.
On the other hand, the surrounding people all had shocked expressions.
Some of them had already moved closer to him, and curiously asked if what Qiao Jinglian said was true.
Elder Qiao was focused on the two people who had suddenly left, and was not in the mood to answer everyone's questions, but he could not leave either. He could only stabilize his mind and deal with them.
Everyone gathered on the green lawn behind the villa. At the moment, there was no one in the villa.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the villa's entrance.
