Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Too Cheap to the Bone (3)

Previously, she had a good relationship with Shen Tingting, and Yu Xiaoqin, out of respect for Shen Tingting, didn’t do much to her.

But she wasn’t a fool and could easily see that Yu Xiaoqin had strong opinions about her.

Now that the Qiao family has declined and Shen Tingting has turned against her, it’s no surprise that Yu Xiaoqin would flaunt her power.

"Even if I’m brown-nosing Sister Tingting, so what? Right now, the Shen family is at its peak, and with their help, the Yu family can also rise higher. It’s much better than being a stray dog like you. I really don’t know what you have to be so proud of!" Yu Xiaoqin retorted, unwilling to be outdone.

Qiao Mo looked at her and laughed lightly, "No wonder anything expensive placed on you always makes people think you’re so poor that you’re unconscious. It turns out you’re just cheap to the bone."

"You!!!" Yu Xiaoqin choked on her words, her face turning an ashen shade.

Qiao Mo laughed again and said, "This is the first time I’ve seen someone be so righteous about being an errand dog. But thinking about it, you must have taken a lot from Shen Tingting, so you’re looking to vent on me?"

"You... fine! Qiao Mo, you’re something! You’re noble! I’ll wait and see what becomes of you in the end!" Yu Xiaoqin was furious, knowing that Qiao Mo always had a sharp tongue.

When the Qiao family was powerful, she could get away with being so arrogant, but now, even as the Qiao family is on the brink of collapse, she still dares to treat her like this!

Qiao Mo’s gaze took on a tinge of coldness as she sneered, "There are plenty of people wanting to see my downfall, who do you think you are?"

With just a few words, Qiao Mo had managed to retort Yu Xiaoqin back, whose expression could only be described as interesting, glaring at Qiao Mo.

Yet she couldn’t outtalk her and had to watch her walk past by her side.

After passing by, Qiao Mo seemed to recall something, stopped again, and said coldly, "Yu Xiaoqin, looking to vent on me? You’re in the wrong place. No matter what happens to the Qiao family, you should know I’m no pushover!"

Yu Xiaoqin gritted her teeth, staring vengefully at Qiao Mo’s back, infuriated!

She had thought the downfall of the Qiao family would let her taste the feeling of being looked down on, but it never occurred to her that Qiao Mo wasn’t the type to endure silently!

Not sure if she couldn’t stand the place anymore or if she was going to Shen Tingting to complain.

Yu Xiaoqin gave Qiao Mo a vicious look and then turned to leave.

Once again, the room was left with only Qiao Mo, as Qianxun and another roommate were in the classroom rushing their manuscripts, probably because the professor assigned some work.

Even though Yu Xiaoqin left, Qiao Mo’s mood did not improve.

Whenever she thought of Shen Tingting, she felt somewhat down.

She and Shen Tingting had been friends for years, and she had always treated her sincerely.

But little did she know... the only reason Shen Tingting got so close was to covet the Qiao family’s business.

Qiao Mo looked down, her heart aching a bit.

She couldn’t recall how many times Shen Tingting went to Qiao Dehou’s company to find her, how many times she came to the Qiao family to accompany her, how many times she probed into the Qiao family’s connections.

She once thought it was concern, thought it was care.

But thinking back now, she did all this.

It was all to spy on the Qiao family’s secrets, wasn’t it?

Qiao Mo couldn’t help but laugh at herself; if she had been more careful, everything had been there to see.

Unfortunately, both Qiao Dehou and she, thinking their acquaintance with Shen Ling was sincere, considered him a brother.

Now it seems, the Shen family must have early on taken an interest in Qiao Dehou’s rise from nothing, with no heritage or backing, so they had intended from the start to grow the Qiao family only to swallow it later, purely out of ulterior motives.
