Chapter 604: Come Clean

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Miao Miao was young, she was simple and kind, and did not resort to any tricks.

Every time he saw Miao Miao, he felt as if she was a sunflower that bloomed in the sun. She was bright, sunny, cheerful, and hopeful toward the future.

But right now…

“Where is your mom heading to?” Zhai Yaohui could not help but ask Zhai Sheng who happened to come out right then.

At the mention of this, Zhai Sheng’s face turned black. “Where do you think my mom could have gone? Who else can my mom have a good chat with?”

When Zhai Yaohui heard what Zhai Sheng said, he could understand the change in his expression. Everyone who was in his position would feel the same.

Miao Miao introduced a prospective girlfriend to her son during the blind date yesterday. It was equivalent to s.n.a.t.c.hing Qiao Nan’s boyfriend.

However, Miao Miao was unaware of it. She felt that she had suffered grievances and needed someone to talk to, and she happened to look for Qiao Nan, whose boyfriend was the party concerned. Qiao Nan could only suffer in silence.

Zhai Yaohui had no choice but to speak up for Miao Jing. “You must not be angry with your mom. She does not know about your relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Nan. If she knows, she will certainly not do this.” Miao Miao would either accept Qiao Nan or sever all ties with Qiao Nan. She would not s.n.a.t.c.h Qiao Nan’s boyfriend on one hand and pour grievances to her on the other hand.

Initially, Zhai Yaohui did not approve of Qiao Nan’s relations.h.i.+p with Zhai Sheng. He merely acknowledged that she was Zhai Sheng’s girlfriend.

But after what happened today, Zhai Yaohui began to sympathize with Qiao Nan. She was unlucky enough to be in a relations.h.i.+p with his son!

“Qiao Nan, I am going for a run.” At the Qiao family’s residence, s.h.i.+ Qing felt awkward when facing Miao Jing, so she thought of an excuse to get away.

Previously, when she went to the Zhai’s family residence to look for Brother Zhai, Auntie Miao would always be on the alert and be wary of her. She could understand her behavior as she was Qi Minlan’s niece. But now that she was at the Qiao family’s residence instead of at the Zhai family’s residence, it was too much of Auntie Miao to look at her in the same way.

“What’s there to run for? Do your homework in the small room!” Qiao Nan threw the schoolbag to s.h.i.+ Qing. It was September now. The Indian summer was unbearable, especially now that it was near noontime. It was no different from the summer. It would be bad for one’s health to run at this time.

“Alright.” s.h.i.+ Qing took the schoolbag abidingly and went to the room where Qiao Zijin lived in previously to do her homework.

Ever since she received the information that s.h.i.+ Peng sent to her regarding the Qiao family, s.h.i.+ Qing had only dislike for Qiao Zijin, whom she had never met before. Normally, she would never go into the room that she once lived in.

But it was a special situation today. She knew that Miao Jing had something to talk to Qiao Nan. Hence, she could only leave the living room.

As soon as s.h.i.+ Qing left, Miao Jing began to pour her grievances to Nan Nan. “Nan Nan, what wrong have I done? I have good intentions but n.o.body appreciates it. Zhai Sheng is like this, and even Hua Hua…” Miao Jing’s heart ached at the thought of the hurtful words that her daughter said.
