Qiao Xuan did not notice what a flirtatious position they were in. She nodded and said, “l am sure. I remember this voice!”
Zhao Ming and Qiao Wei were good friends. So, Qiao Xuan did pay attention to her at the banquet. She was not wrong about it.
Shao Yunduan nodded with a small ‘okay’ sound.
They were separated by a screen. They were not talking loudly, but they caught a few words, not completely clear ones though.
But that was already enough for them to understand what was going on.
In summary, Shao Liulang was stupid and had no idea why he thought Zhao Ming would like him. So, Zhao Ming got on a date with him, and he tried to put on a very nice show as a gentleman, trying to win Zhao Mings heart.
But, in fact, Zhao Ming was not interested in him, and instead, kept talking about Shao Yunduan, Qiao Xuan and the Zhang Village.
Shao Liulang was too stupid to realize that something was wrong.
He felt really excited and thought that Zhao Ming was falling for him slowly. He became increasingly happy.
In order to answer her queries, he made some remarks about his relatives.
He did not have much knowledge about the real situation anyways. So, when Zhao Ming could not get anything more out of him, she obviously lost interest.
Soon, Zhao Ming found an excuse and left.
But he kept trying to offer to escort her back.
Obviously, Zhao Ming did not need his help. She teased him and went away.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan heard the sound of footsteps that left the place.
Soon, Shao Liulang left as well.
He must be in a very good mood as he was humming all this while.
Qiao Xuan did not know how to complain about Shao Liulang.
What was more disheartening was that he kept making up bad stories about his relatives in front of outsiders.
The first section of the family helped them so much during all these years.
The reason why he was able to go to school was because half of the tuition fees were paid by the first section of the family. This was interrupted after Qiao Xuan came to the family.
Despite so much, Shao Liulang felt no gratitude, and kept making up bad stories about the first section of the family.
What a ruthless family!
Shao Yunduan was silent for a while, but said eventually, “If the Zhao Family wants to know about the Zhang Village and our fields, it should have been Old Master Zhao’s men who are doing the prying, not his daughter. It should be Zhao Mings own ideas. But…”
Old Master Zhao did not dare to irritate Yuezheng Xiao, and he would not have insisted upon it after knowing the ‘truth’.
Then, why was Zhao Ming asking about the first section of the family again?
Zhao Ming and his family were not enemies…
Qiao Xuan sneered. “Maybe Qiao Wei told her to do so…”
She was Qiao Wei’s follower, but there should not be any reason for Qiao Wei to do so.
Shao Yunduan was confused. What was Qiao Wei up to? Officer Qiao’s business should not be hers, right?
Qiao Xuan was not worried. She was already half-exposed right now, except that Officer Qiao had no idea how much they had in total.
“We should be cautious these days. I will tell Mom and Sisters-in-law that they should be careful about people coming to the door. Those who never hang out with us and suddenly get very passionate should definitely be ignored..”
