Chapter 1860: South of the River, Tall Trees (185)
Qiao Qiao felt like her voice wasn’t even hers, "I know."
Looking at this bloodstained man, she thought of a great white shark.
Ji Bo’s gaze settled on Qiao Qiao, "Good, as long as you know. I’ve invested heavily to resolve this matter."
Qiao Qiao remained silent.
Ji Bo said, "I never do unprofitable deals."
Qiao Qiao thought about the agreement Qin Shaoling had signed with him and stayed silent again.
She looked at Ji Bo, the man wore a mask and seemed like a young Fox Demon cult practitioner.
Ji Bo said, "Alright, you can leave now. Once you’ve done what you need to do, my people will take you away."
Qiao Qiao acknowledged and followed Acheng out of the suite.
Ji Bo watched Acheng’s back, "Make sure everything over there is arranged."
Acheng, "Yes, Master."
...
Back in Hong Kong, the city remained as calm as if she had never left, as if nothing had ever happened.
Only she knew, too much was about to change!
Three months later, she saw her mother at the dormitory entrance, Ci Wan!
Ci Wan saw Qiao Qiao, "Qiao Qiao, wait up."
Qiao Qiao had already imagined what she was going to say, but she couldn’t help but stop and look at Ci Wan.
So many times before, she had fantasized about this woman who gave birth to her, giving her a sliver of warmth, a mother’s warmth for her child. Later, she always found this fantasy too extravagant!
Ci Wan looked at Qiao Qiao, struggling to speak.
Qiao Qiao, "If there’s nothing, I’m leaving now."
Ci Wan, "Wait, there’s something I want to discuss with you."
Qiao Qiao stopped, indeed she didn’t continue walking.
She turned around, looked at Ci Wan.
Ci Wan looked at Qiao Qiao, "In a few days, I’m getting married."
"Getting married?"
Qiao Qiao looked at Ci Wan and let out a sarcastic laugh.
Ci Wan stood there, her face slightly flushed, "Yes."
Qiao Qiao looked at Ci Wan, once again the fantasy turned into a vain hope!
Probably in this lifetime, she would never experience something like maternal love.
In her past life, did she have a deep grudge against Ci Wan, or did she owe Ci Wan hundreds of Gold Ingots for Ci Wan to treat her like this in this life?
Ci Wan looked at Qiao Qiao, "This time, don’t cause any trouble for me!"
Qiao Qiao laughed at Ci Wan, "It’s not me causing trouble, it’s the men you find that are unreliable, they freeze up at the sight of me, what can I do?"
"..."
Ci Wan stood there, looking displeased.
But thinking of Qin Shaonan and Qin Shaoling’s relationship, she felt somewhat reassured.
She didn’t believe that this time Qiao Qiao would try to seduce people like before.
Qiao Qiao carried her backpack, suddenly feeling it heavy, switched to the other hand, but still kept smiling, "So, who’s the groom this time?"
Ci Wan, "..."
She looked at Qiao Qiao’s attitude, and knew that Qiao Qiao was still unaware of her relationship with Qin Shaoling.
Qiao Qiao looked at Ci Wan and let out a cold laugh, "Why? Feeling embarrassed too? Go ahead, after all, it doesn’t matter who it is, you’ll be divorced soon anyway."
Ci Wan, "Qin Shaoling, you should’ve met him once."
Qiao Qiao gave an "Oh" and nodded, "So it’s that coward, your taste really is getting worse."
Ci Wan initially tried to maintain a good attitude, but with just one of Qiao Qiao’s comments, she lost it, her face turned a sickly shade of green.
Qiao Qiao watched Ci Wan’s reaction, "You’re thirty-seven and not in your prime, half-bloomed plum, give it up, no matter how you try, there’s not much left to show off, just a laugh for others."
