After Swapping Lives, the Metaphysics Side Character Became the Wealthy Family's Beloved - Chapter 161

His ankle couldn’t wait. Li Qiao firmly pulled Xiao Qingbei away. He stared in surprise at their joined hands.

Qiaoqiao’s strength is really something.

After they went outside, they happened to run into Xiao Qingyan and Xiao Qinglu, who were rushing over. Seeing Xiao Qingbei’s sorry state, their expressions were a mix of complicated emotions.

In the end, the group of four headed to the hospital.

Fortunately, he hadn’t broken any bones in his foot. Otherwise, he’d be laid up for three months.

Even with his current injury, it couldn’t be ignored.

Li Qiao instructed, “Second Brother, after we get back, let’s make a trip to the market. We’ll buy some big pork bones to make soup.”

“Qiaoqiao, my leg isn’t broken.” Why bone soup? He didn’t want it.

Xiao Qingyan said gently, “That works. We can also pick up some crucian carp while we’re there.”

“…” I’m not producing milk, why crucian carp soup? Xiao Qingbei wished he could run away right then, but his foot was sprained.

Finally, he pinned his hopes on Xiao Qinglu: “Little Six, I’m counting on you!”

“Okay.”

“…”

Never mind. Might as well throw this brother away.

As the four of them walked out chatting and laughing, Li Qiao ran into Jian Lanfeng again.

He greeted the Xiao family warmly.

But to an observant person like Xiao Qingyan, there seemed to be something different between Jian Lanfeng and Li Qiao.

“Doctor Jian, didn’t you go watch Jian Dan’s competition?” Xiao Qingbei remarked casually.

“Just got back.”

So he missed it.

Their relationship with Jian Lanfeng wasn’t close. Their only connection was Jian Dan, so there wasn’t much else to say.

After parting ways, Li Qiao asked curiously, “What’s the relationship between Jian Dan and Jian Lanfeng?”

“They’re cousins,” Xiao Qingbei explained briefly.

She hadn’t examined Jian Dan’s appearance closely before. So that was the connection!

Thinking of Jian Dan, Li Qiao said with some regret, “We missed Jian Dan’s competition.”

“Not a problem. We can watch the recording together tonight.”
“How thorough.”

While Li Qiao and Xiao Qingbei were talking, they somewhat neglected Xiao Qingyan and Xiao Qinglu. Both brothers had a hint of grievance in their eyes.

Uh—

With many brothers, comes a tendency for jealousy.

On the way back.

Their car nearly hit someone. Li Qiao noticed a familiar face outside. She got out of the car and called, “Su Qiantang?”

The person in the soft pink dress suddenly looked up. It was indeed Su Qiantang. When she saw Li Qiao, she let out a sob and threw herself into Li Qiao’s arms.

The young lady was crying so sadly. What happened to this young miss?

“Take your time. Tell me what’s wrong.”

Su Qiantang sniffled, “Li Qiao, I got my heart broken again.”

“…”

Perhaps because Li Qiao didn’t respond for a while, Su Qiantang buried herself in her arms again, weeping incessantly.

“Did my third brother reject you again?”

“You’re stabbing me right in the heart.”

“I’m just stating the facts.”

Thereupon, Su Qiantang once again drenched the front of Li Qiao’s shirt with her tears: “Brother Xing is too much. Li Hui is too much too. I thought she was my best friend, but she stabbed me in the back and tried to seduce Brother Xing. I don’t know what method she used, but last night Brother Xing actually agreed to let Li Hui stay with him… Waaaah… I haven’t even slept in Brother Xing’s bed… Waaaah… What right does she have…”

Li Qiao sensed something was off.

Originally, Third Brother’s attitude towards Li Hui had been very poor. How could he possibly make such a decision?

Li Qiao pulled her out of the embrace. “Explain it clearly.”

“Qiaoqiao, whatever you have to say, you can say it slowly in the car.”

Xiao Qingyan called out.

It’s too hot outside.

After the two got in the car, the Xiao brothers finally recognized Su Qiantang. This young lady with her makeup cried off was Su Qiantang, the daughter of Su Yue, founder of “Get Rich” Malatang!
