Chapter 385: Chapter 385: Two Mothers
Hearing Elder Qiao say this, Qiao Xiang couldn’t help but furrow her brows as her gaze fell on the document in Elder Qiao’s hand. She was a little curious—why did he suddenly have a newfound respect for Qiao Rui?
A flash of complex emotions passed through her eyes: jealousy, envy, and a deep curiosity.
Qiao Rui reacted with calm indifference. "Grandpa, it’s not really a big deal. You don’t need to look at it that way."
Yet Elder Qiao shook his head, looking at Qiao Rui with increasingly complex eyes. If Qiao Rui were a boy, he might totally entrust the Qiao Family to her hands.
But, she is, after all, a girl.
Elder Qiao felt a mix of regret and comfort from deep within.
Elder Qiao sighed, "With this data, most of the money taken by the Lin Family can be recovered."
"Grandpa, what exactly is this stuff?" Qiao Xiang finally couldn’t hold back anymore and asked.
Elder Qiao looked at her and handed the material to Qiao Xiang. "Learn well from this. Your sister is quite formidable."
Qiao Xiang took it with suspicion, glanced at it, slightly frowned, and then another complex emotion flashed through her eyes as she stared blankly at Qiao Rui.
It’s terrifying!
She pursed her lips and asked, "How did you get this stuff?"
"Of course, I have my own channels." Qiao Rui smiled lightly and said, "Big sister, this morning, you should take this stuff to the Lin Family. Just say one thing to old Master Lin: spit out the money you swallowed, or if this information gets released, the Lin Family should be prepared for its downfall."
Qiao Xiang turned pale but still nodded. "I understand. I’ll deliver it before work."
"Then I’ll be waiting for your good news." Qiao Rui said, "Oh, and tell old Master Lin that this is just part of it; there’s a lot more to come, which will be given to him bit by bit."
"Got it." Qiao Xiang did not refute.
Because she knew very well that this material was enough to cost her two uncles their lives.
If dug deeper, it might affect the next generation of the Lin Family.
Qiao Xiang was also surprised at how many incriminating things her uncles had. These were all very hidden matters, yet Qiao Rui found them out.
How did she manage to do it?
Qiao Rui stood up: "Grandpa, Gai Yin and I are going to have breakfast first. We won’t be back tonight; contact us by phone if anything comes up."
Elder Qiao spoke gently and kindly: "Go ahead."
Qiao Xiang’s eyes grew even more complex as she watched Elder Qiao’s attitude towards Qiao Rui. In the past, Grandpa also spoke to her in this way.
Now he uses this attitude towards Qiao Rui, and seems increasingly disappointed in her.
She couldn’t even remember how long it had been since Elder Qiao had properly spoken to her.
Now, Qiao Rui had already taken away her spotlight in the Qiao Family. She was shining brightly, radiantly so.
And she was no longer Elder Qiao’s pride.
In a daze, Elder Qiao’s gaze turned to Qiao Xiang, his eyes calm and indifferent: "Hurry up and go."
Qiao Xiang was stunned again. In the past, Grandpa would always ask her to stay and have a meal, but today he wasn’t even letting her eat.
She forced a smile and said, "I’ll head to the Lin Family now, Grandpa. I’m leaving first."
"Okay, remember what your sister just told you. Don’t say much; just deliver the stuff and let them know there’s much more similar information, that’s all." Elder Qiao reminded her again.
Qiao Xiang nodded. "I understand, Grandpa."
"I hope you truly understand. Remember you are still the eldest lady of the Qiao Family." Elder Qiao said sternly.
Qiao Xiang was taken aback, meeting Elder Qiao’s gaze.
Elder Qiao’s eyes were very insightful, as if they saw through everything, able to easily perceive Qiao Xiang’s inner thoughts.
She panicked inside, averted her eyes, and said, "Grandpa, this time I’ll cooperate well with Sixth Sister. No matter what, the overall interests of the Qiao Family come first."
"Very good," Elder Qiao nodded approvingly. "Having this awareness puts you above your parents. Learn well at the Pei Family. Grandpa also hopes that one day you will be able to stand on your own."
"Thank you, Grandpa." Qiao Xiang took the materials and quickly left.
In the car.
Gai Yin asked Qiao Rui, "President Qiao, will Qiao Xiang really take these things to the Lin Family?"
"She definitely will." Qiao Rui said calmly, "She is also a smart person and naturally knows what she should aim for. If she looks at the bigger picture, she can live well, just that sometimes she can be confused."
Especially when it comes to relationships, Qiao Xiang is too stubborn.
Sometimes being too persistent is an advantage, but sometimes it’s a drawback.
Gai Yin hesitated for a moment but expressed her thoughts, "President Qiao, I still think it’s best not to cooperate with her. She’s not very trustworthy."
"Sister Yin, I know what you mean." Qiao Rui smiled. "Don’t worry, I have it under control."
Gai Yin nodded. "I’m just worried you’ll be soft-hearted."
"Don’t worry, rationality prevails." Qiao Rui smiled.
"That’s good." Gai Yin also smiled and then asked, "Where should we eat?"
"Let’s find a lively place; it must be good." Qiao Rui suggested.
"Okay, I know a place that’s clean and hygienic." Gai Yin drove directly there.
Upon arrival, Qiao Rui saw the sign "Zhou Porridge and Pan-fried Buns" from the car window.
It was indeed very crowded.
Qiao Rui said, "This place must sell porridge and pan-fried buns, right?"
"Yes, President Qiao. I came here yesterday; it’s delicious and should suit your taste."
"Then let’s go here." Qiao Rui said, "Park the car; I’ll go in and grab a table first."
"I’ve already reserved a table." Gai Yin said, "You can go to table 17 on the second floor."
"Nicely done." Qiao Rui complimented, "Let’s go up together."
The two quickly parked the car.
Qiao Rui and Gai Yin got out and headed towards the breakfast shop.
They went straight up to the second floor upon entering the door.
Qiao Rui sat down at the reserved table while Gai Yin went to order.
"Mom!" Suddenly, a child’s innocent voice rang out.
Qiao Rui was stunned, taken aback, as Little Xingxing had already run up to her, hugging her and whispering, "Mom!"
Qiao Rui was even more bewildered this time.
Why could Little Xingxing always recognize her in different guises?
Qiao Rui was also at a loss, awkwardly looking around as everyone on the second floor was watching her.
Qiao Rui froze for a moment and finally saw Huo Sinan at another table, who also looked awkward, getting up to come over.
For a moment, he didn’t recognize Qiao Rui and just said, "Sorry, ma’am. My son doesn’t quite understand."
Qiao Rui looked down at Little Xingxing, then smiled slightly, "Hello, Mr. Huo."
Huo Sinan was taken aback, instinctively looking at Qiao Rui with some disbelief, "Are you Mrs. Pei?"
"Yes, I’m Qiao Rui." Qiao Rui smiled calmly.
Huo Sinan looked at her in shock; Qiao Rui had changed, like a complete transformation, unbelievably beautiful.
And at this moment, Gai Yin happened to come upstairs, "President Qiao, I’ve ordered, it’s coming right away."
"Mom!" Suddenly, Little Xingxing ran towards Gai Yin, hugging her leg. "Two moms."
