C82 (1/2)

Because of what Fosmin had said about waiting until Monday before returning to the company, and because of the weekend, Joanna would have to stay at home for another two or three days.

When she had nothing to do, she wanted to find something to do, so she thought she might as well pass the time by drawing a design draft. Maybe she would find inspiration by writing for no reason at all.

If she wanted to do it, she had to do it. Qiao Anjiao was a very active person. She went back to the room she lived in before and wanted to find some brush, paper, and other things to practice with. However, when she opened the cabinet, the things that were originally there were gone.

After searching the entire room, she was unable to find her own drawing tools.

”How strange …” Qiao Anxiao scratched his head in bewilderment. He was very puzzled. Every time he finished drawing, he would return it to a fixed place. Why was it gone?

Had the servant forgotten to tell her while he was cleaning the room?

So she called the servant who cleaned the room every day, ”Why is the drawing tool I put in the cupboard gone? Did you see it while you were cleaning? ”

The servant hesitated for a moment, but eventually told Qiao Anxiao, ”Mister said that you won't be able to use those things in the future, so he asked me to pack them up and send them to the storage room …”

Qiao Anxian was momentarily speechless and quickly walked to the storage room.

She rummaged through the junk for a long time before finally finding the tools. Fortunately, the pile didn't take long and there weren't any damages. She was still able to continue using them.

Did this Fu Siming really hate her doing architectural designs? thought Joanna. However … He did not ask for the tools to be thrown out.

She was about to start drawing when the butler came upstairs and told her that her mother was coming.

Mother? When he thought of this person, Qiao Anjiao felt a headache. It wasn't because of her cold nature, but because her mother treated her with hypocrisy and didn't want to see her for a month or two. Once she appeared, she would have to ask for her help or instill in her some ideas that she couldn't accept.

”Did she say what she was doing?”

The butler shook his head and said, ”No, I can't ask.” But I think it was to visit you, ma'am. ”

”Alright, I understand.” Qiao Anxiao rubbed his temples. It seemed like he shouldn't complain about his boredom. Now that the heavens had come to find a job for her, he said, ”Could I trouble you to make her wait in the living room for a moment? I'll go down immediately …”

Without waiting for him to finish, he heard a voice: ”Dye, why are you waiting downstairs for your mother? ”How unfamiliar!”

Jia Mei had already arrived at the door of Qiao Anxian's room. Seeing that the butler was still standing there, she lowered her face and said, ”I came to see my daughter to inform her who I am.”

”Madam Qiao.” The butler bowed slightly and said nothing more.

As the butler left, Jia Mei, who was still behind him, gave him a look before turning to Joanna and taking her hand, making her look like a loving mother, she asked with concern: ”Look at you, how did you lose weight?”

Qiao Anxiao replied perfunctorily, ”I've been suffering from a loss of appetite recently. I'm fine.”

”How can this be called nothing?” Jia Mei said seriously, ”You know, a loss of appetite will make your body's bottom worse, the bottom will be worse...”

Seeing that the topic was about to change again, Qiao Anyun quickly asked, ”What brings you here today?”

Jia Mei was startled, then laughed, and said: ”Silly child, look at what you are saying! Can't mom come if there's nothing to do? ”Mom just wants to see if you're doing well …”

After saying that, she took a look at the room where Qiao Anzhi was in. It looked like it had been a long time since someone had stayed there, so she asked her, ”Are you sleeping with Fu Siming now? ”If that's the case, you have to hurry …”

Knowing that she was going somewhere else, he interrupted her again and asked, ”How is father?” Are you feeling better? The Qiao Family has already passed through the crisis, right? ”

Jia Mei temporarily forgot what she had just said as she was dragged along by Qiao An Xia. She followed up on her topic and replied, ”Your father is already better. The Qiao family's crisis is also over, but …”

”But what?”

”The Fu Group injected a large amount of money and your father's shares were severely diluted. ”On the surface, it's said that the Qiao Clan has passed through a crisis, but everyone knows that now, Fu Siming has become the biggest shareholder.” Jia Mei sighed and said, ”Dye, think about it. Our Qiao family's fate is completely under Fu Si Ming's control. Now that he's happy, he can help us, but what about in the future? Can you guarantee that he won't take the group away one day? ”At that time, our Qiao family will have nothing, your father will go from being the chairman to being a shareholder with a small share. Sooner or later, Mrs. Qiao will be changed!”
