Chapter 1237: Grudges
He never ate here? Xia Ning looked at him in a daze. She thought about his attitude towards the Qiao family just now. It was not the usual coldness he had towards others. His tone was a little harsh. It was rare to see him put emotions into his words like this.
Therefore, it could only mean that someone here would harm him.
Thinking back to the attitude of the Qiao family, they were obviously jealous of Qiao Yu.
Seeing that Xia Ning was deep in thought, Qiao Yu called Enoch into the car and let him sit in the children’s chair. He then closed the door and looked at her.”Do you want to sit in front?”
Xia Ning came back to her senses and looked at him in confusion.
“I’ll tell you if you sit in front!” Qiao Yu said directly.
Tell her what? Could it be the reason why he was so cold to old master Qiao and the Qiao family’s second branch?
She immediately nodded.
In the car, Xia Ning fastened her seat belt and looked at Enoch who was sitting in the back seat. This little guy had actually fallen asleep. It was already time for dinner, wasn’t he hungry?
“Let’s go eat first. Do you want to eat at home or outside?”he asked. Qiao Yu suddenly asked.
“Yesterday, Enoch said that he wanted to eat pizza. Let’s go and eat pizza then,” Xia Ning said after some thought.
Qiao ran nodded.”Alright.” Then, he started the car.
Xia Ning turned to look at Qiao Yu.”What did you say you were going to tell me?”
......
“Second uncle was grandfather’s child with another woman.” Qiao Yu said in a low voice,”because of Grandpa, dad treats second uncle quite well. Although he can’t compare to being born from the same mother, he’s still one of a kind.” But second uncle wasn’t satisfied and gave dad a lot of trouble, both openly and secretly. ”
Thinking of the second branch’s attitude just now, Xia Ning could imagine how second uncle Qiao had treated her father-in-law when he was still alive. The second branch’s members were all outrageous, both the older and younger ones. She wanted Qiao Yu to feel bad and find a sense of balance.
“When dad was still around, we would come back a few times a month. Now, I only come back on important days.” Qiao Yu said in a low voice,”you don’t have to give them face. Some people don’t even want it.” If it wasn’t for father telling me to be filial to grandfather before he passed away, and if grandfather didn’t stop me, I would never have set foot here again. ”
Upon hearing this, Xia Ning furrowed her brows and asked,”did something happen in between?”
“Dad’s and my car accident was planned by second uncle,” Qiao Yu said in a deep voice, his dark eyes were cold.
Xia Ning’s eyes widened as she stared at Qiao Yu in disbelief. However, when she saw the cold expression on his face, she immediately understood that he was telling the truth.
“When I woke up, I sent someone to investigate this matter. In the end, I found my second uncle, but Grandpa didn’t let me touch him. At that time, he had a heart attack. I thought of my father’s last words and could only give up. After that, second uncle stayed at grandpa’s house.” Qiao Yu continued,”he’s afraid that I’ll do something to him. It’s probably because I haven’t done anything to him in the past few years that he’s let his guard down.”
Xia Ning almost laughed out loud when she heard this. She had never seen such a shameless person before. He had set Qiao Yu’s father up to die and now he was asking Qiao Yu to be respectful to him. Where did he get his confidence from? she thought she was cold-hearted, but she also felt ashamed. To think that they still dared to covet the first wife’s inheritance. How shameless.
She suddenly regretted being too polite to those people just now!
Qiao Yu held Xia Ning’s hand and said in a low voice,”on the day of the car accident, dad mentioned my marriage. I was just about to tell him about you.” There was a hint of melancholy in his voice. If it weren’t for that car accident, they wouldn’t have taken so many detours.
