Chapter 618: He Knows What She Likes (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qiao Qiao chose to escape not because she was unwilling to face it, but because she felt so guilty that she couldn’t face Shao Jingmo’s feelings for her. All of those seemed ordinary, but every piece was so heavy that she couldn’t afford it.
Jingcheng chased after her and stopped her. “Miss, wait.” Qiao Qiao stopped, but she didn’t turn around. Jingcheng looked at Qiao Qiao’s back and said, “I’m sorry that what I said just now caused some trouble for you, Miss, but other than that, I have to say that Third Master’s feelings for you are unwavering.”
Qiao Qiao was silent for a long time. She slowly turned around, but her face was full of sarcasm. “What a nice thing to say. Then why didn’t he say it to my face?”
Jingchengs jaw tightened.
Qiao Qiao’s lips curled into a playful smile. “You know that saying these words will cause me trouble, but you still insist on taking up my time. It’s so boring to say these meaningless words.”
With that, the teasing smile on her lips disappeared and turned into a cold expression.
In the end, Jingcheng didn’t say anything else and turned to go in.
Before five o’clock, Shao Jingmo’s personal belongings were all moved out of the Qiao residence by the workers Jingcheng had arranged. Among these personal items, other than a few clothes and the paintings in the bedroom cubicle, he did not take anything else.
Qiao Qiao stood alone in the garden and watched the car leave quietly. She didn’t look away even when the door slowly closed.
Mother Qiao walked over silently and placed the shawl on Qiao Qiao’s shoulder. “It’s almost dinner. Go in.’
Qiao Qiao didn’t say anything. She lifted the shawl off her body and turned to go in. Mother Qiao didn’t have time to reach out and catch it. The shawl fell to the ground. ‘Guigui!” Mother Qiao bent down and picked up the shawl, looking unhappy.
However, Qiao Qiao reacted like a child in the rebellious stage. Without saying anything, she turned around and left. Mother Qiao was a little angry. “I’m just spoiling you too much.”
At the dining table.
Qiao Qiao ate in silence. The atmosphere was very quiet, except for the crisp sound of chopsticks touching the porcelain bowl. Halfway through the meal, Old Master Qiao finally couldn’t help but say, “This mushroom chicken fir soup tonight is alright.”
Father Qiao immediately added, “It’s very delicious.”
Old Master Qiao took the opportunity to ask, “What do you think, Guigui?” Qiao Qiao didn’t answer and continued eating.
“Guigui, you can’t continue like this.” It was Mother Qiao who spoke. Her expression was not very good. “People have to look forward. You can’t stay where you are forever. You have to face a brand new life in the future. Why do you have to look like you’re on the verge of death? What’s the point?”
Parents’ patience was always limited. Besides, Qiao Qiao always looked like
she was about to die. She ignored everyone who spoke to her and was completely immersed in her own world. She wouldn’t listen to anyone.
Taking advantage of the fact that they were at the dining table, Mother Qiao couldn’t help but say all the words she had been holding in.
It seemed to have some effect.
Qiao Qiao put down her chopsticks and looked at Mother Qiao. She asked in an extremely calm tone, “If you don’t want to see me like this, tell me, who caused me to look like this? I even hate myself.”
In a moment of anger, Mother Qiao slammed her chopsticks on the dining table.
There was a smack!
Father Qiao was shocked. Old Master Qiao’s expression was solemn. Only Qiao Qiao didn’t blink. She was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.
Mother Qiao rarely lost her temper at Qiao Qiao, let alone shouted at her. Most of the time, it was easy to negotiate. But today, Mother Qiao really couldn’t control her temper. “Do you think we’re the ones who caused the current situation?”
Qiao Qiao didn’t say anything. She just looked at Mother Qiao quietly.
“How can a heartless person be worthy of you pouring your heart out to him? He’s not worthy at all.” Mother Qiao’s tone was domineering. After saying that, seeing that her daughter’s expression did not change, she softened her tone, “Fate can’t be forced. Since you’ve come this far, it means that your fate has ended. You should plan your future life well.”
Father Qiao echoed, “That’s right. Look, you’ve been depressed all day.”
Only Old Master Qiao did not speak.
Mother Qiao thought that after she said this, there was a high chance that she would anger Qiao Qiao even more. With her unpredictable personality, Mother Qiao wouldn’t be surprised if she shouted at her in the next second.
But to Mother Qiao’s surprise, Qiao Qiao nodded obediently and replied gently, “I’ll adjust my mood as soon as possible.”
This reaction was completely unexpected. She turned to look at Father Qiao, who also looked confused..
