The three of them were speechless.
The first to react was Su Yan. He held his stomach and laughed, asking, “Sister Qiao, is that for real? My dad got cheated on?”
“Jianguo… Jianguo… you have to believe me. How could I ever betray you? She’s just talking nonsense. I know Su, young master, has never liked me, but there’s no need for you to team up with an outsider to frame me.
I am pregnant. This child is Jianguo’s.” Li Nana held her stomach, crying in sorrow.
A beautiful woman crying made Su Jianguo’s heart ache.
He held Li Nana gently and said, “Baby, I believe you. Little niece, you really shouldn’t talk nonsense.”
“I’m just kindly reminding you. The baby in her belly really isn’t yours. And as for you…” Li Qiao looked at Li Nana, who cowered her neck as if she were very afraid of Li Qiao.
“Don’t take things that don’t belong to you.”
Whether she would listen or not was up to Li Nana.
She continued pretending not to understand.
Li Qiao withdrew her gaze, signaled to Su Yan, and the two left one after the other.
Just then, Su Yan pressed Li Nana again about the child.
It really wasn’t Su Jianguo’s child.
His dad getting cheated on was confirmed!
“Sister Qiao, what did Li Nana take that she shouldn’t have?” Anyone targeted by Li Qiao was probably in for some bad luck.
Li Qiao touched the long hair falling over her chest and said mysteriously, “She’ll find out soon. If she comes looking for me, triple the price.”
“Haha… I can’t wait already.” Li Nana was about to have a bad time.
His dad prided himself on being smart, yet he could still trip over a little girl.
Men, it’s really hard for them to resist sweet talk.
Especially from a young girl. Su Yan looked down on Li Nana’s tactics, but he also despised Su Jianguo’s behavior.
Play around by all means, but don’t take it seriously, otherwise you’ll end up being the real fool.
Su Yan drove Li Qiao away from the Su family home. They went to a Hunan restaurant, with Su Yan claiming he wanted to properly thank Li Qiao.
“Without you, I’d have an extra bastard brother fighting me for the family fortune.”
Li Qiao took a sip of the sour plum drink, feeling cool and delighted. “Don’t worry, Uncle Su is destined to only have you as his child.”
He became even happier.
Su Yan had always loved watching drama, and this time the drama was happening right on his dad’s head!
“Ooh… Li Qiao.”
She looked up and saw a group including Jian Lanxin and Shen Kuo. They were wearing their school uniforms. Li Qiao said with amusement, “Skipping class?”
“No, we just came out to grab something.”
Shen Kuo held some things in his arms – things needed for the school anniversary. Li Qiao had her name attached at school, but she wasn’t really interested in these things.
Since they were here, they all sat down together for a meal.
Shen Kuo, who hadn’t been seen for a while, still had that same aloof and proud demeanor.
Jian Lanxin, sitting next to Li Qiao, whispered, “Li Qiao, why are you going out to eat alone with Su Yan?”
Her eyes darted suspiciously between the two of them.
They were sitting very close!
Su Yan across the table raised an eyebrow and said, “Little girl, I can hear you.”
“Hmph, Li Qiao is my future sister-in-law, so you better behave yourself.”
“Ridiculous. How is she your sister-in-law? Jian Lanfeng should stop trying to rob the cradle.”
He always had a sharp tongue.
“You… you actually just insulted my brother.”
“Tch.”
While they were bickering, Li Qiao finished eating. She wiped her lips and said, “There’s nothing going on between me and your brother. Don’t say things like that anymore, or it might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.”
“What misunderstanding? It’s clearly…” Jian Lanxin noticed the calm look in her eyes, and the rest of her words got stuck in her throat.
She was afraid of Li Qiao.
“You all take your time eating.”
Li Qiao dropped a sentence and left.
Su Yan followed closely behind. He personally drove Li Qiao home.
“Li Qiao.”
“Oh, Li Man.” Li Qiao sized up Li Man, who had appeared there. She was decked out in head-to-toe designer brands.
The Xu family treated her very well.
“Sister Qiao, wait for me…”
Su Yan came walking over from behind. When Li Man saw him, her face filled with shock: “Why aren’t you dead yet?”
