After Swapping Lives, the Metaphysics Side Character Became the Wealthy Family's Beloved - Chapter 145

After listening to his chattering for a while, Li Qiao hung up the phone.

But her car was suddenly blocked by someone.

The window of the opposite car rolled down, revealing a man’s strikingly beautiful face—it was him!

He Jingnian’s cousin, Li Jue.

“Miss Li, I heard you went to Qingshui Town with him.”

“Yes.”

“Then… Miss Li, how well do you know He Jingnian?”

His expression was somewhat strange, and Li Qiao felt something was off. Before she could say anything, Li Jue’s car had already driven away.

Li Qiao was left full of questions.

After returning home,

Li Qiao observed her brothers’ fortunes—they were thriving and flourishing!

The impact of their stunning good looks was still quite strong.

This time, Li Shaoyu had accompanied Li Qiao to Qingshui Town and had already told the others about what happened there. As remarkable as Qiaoqiao was, her being with He Jingnian…

The four brothers exchanged a meaningful glance.

As the eldest brother, Li Shaojin was the first to speak: “Qiaoqiao… are you dating He Jingnian?”

Li Qiao, who was eating fruit, froze instantly.

She shook her head: “No.”

The four of them slowly let out a sigh of relief, but then Li Qiao added, “At most, it’s just a bit ambiguous.”

In an instant, their tension returned.

Since they weren’t officially dating, as her brothers, they didn’t press further. In the future, they’d just have to introduce Qiaoqiao to more high-quality men!

This time, they had all gathered together for Old Master Xiao’s birthday banquet.

“How annoying, we’re going to run into Xiao Qinglu again.”

Li Shaoyu said discontentedly.

Fortunately, they had returned to the capital quickly; otherwise, they would have surely encountered Xiao Qinglu in Qingshui Town.

Hmph, this time, he’d be out of luck!

Just then, a voice came from outside. Li Qiao noticed the gloomy expressions on her four brothers’ faces and asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s Mrs. Liu,” Li Shaojin said.

“Qiaoqiao, you might not know this, but she regrets everything now and wants Mom’s forgiveness. Unfortunately, Mom doesn’t care anymore. She’s all alone now,” Li Shaohing said mockingly.

A flicker of understanding passed through Li Qiao’s eyes.

Li Shaoyang said lazily, “She reaped what she sowed—it’s karma. The Liu family’s scandals are known throughout the city.”

“What happened? Tell me in detail,” she said with a gossipy expression, making her brothers sigh in resignation.

After Liu Yulan became pregnant with Liu Yusheng’s child, although people in their social circle looked down on it, they still went to offer congratulations.

It was said that one of the guests, while using the restroom, witnessed Liu Yulan and Old Master Liu in the study, engaged in intimate activities. The scene was extremely shocking, and this guest, unable to resist, took photos.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon everyone in their social circle knew about it.

The Liu family’s reputation was utterly ruined.

Mrs. Liu was deeply traumatized and no longer dared to attend any social events.

After their relationship was exposed, the Liu family fell into chaos.

Old Master Liu and Liu Yulan no longer bothered to hide their affair.

As for Liu Yusheng, who was disabled, when he saw his own father entangled with his woman, he was so enraged that he vomited blood on the spot and was still hospitalized.

It was said that Liu Yusheng was now completely paralyzed from the waist down.

With his son incapacitated, Old Master Liu pinned all his hopes on the child in Liu Yulan’s womb, fervently hoping for another son!

Liu Yulan’s status in the Liu family rose day by day, leaving no room for Mrs. Liu.

After enduring these hardships, Mrs. Liu tried to cling to Liu Yusi.

But alas!

How can a heart that has been broken so thoroughly ever love again?

“This is the Liu family’s karma,” Li Shaoyu said with disgust.

As the noise outside gradually faded, Li Qiao paid it no mind. The fate of others was of little concern to her.

Returning to her room to rest, Li Qiao first bowed to the Ancestral Master.

She plopped down at the table, gently stroking the Ancestral Master’s memorial tablet with her small hand.

Her mind was in a slight disarray.

Why did Li Jue give her such a familiar feeling?

Li Qiao tugged at her hair, puzzled and unable to make sense of it.

“Dear heavens, since you made me transmigrate into this book, could you at least give me the original story… I want to know what happens next…”
