Chapter 492: Chapter 492_1 Chapter 492: Chapter 492_1 “How could I not be in good spirits when you’re home?” Qiao Yi’an smoothed out the loose hair on Qiao Xiaren’s forehead, speaking gently, “If only you could come home every day, it would be even better for me. We watched your T-Stage show last time, Grandpa, Grandma and I, it was really amazing!”
His praise made Qiao Xiaren feel a warmth and sweetness inside.
These were her family members.
From now on, she wouldn’t have to face everything alone, no matter what happened.
Qiao Xiaren’s gaze unintentionally fell on Qiao Yi’an’s leg. She had always asked him how he ended up hurting his leg, but he always avoided answering.
Each time she saw the look of despair and desolation in Qiao Yi’an’s eyes, Qiao Xiaren desired even more to cure his leg completely and restore his ability to walk. Her grandmother said it was a severe injury to his muscles and bones and it might be impossible to recover fully in his lifetime.
However, that wasn’t a problem. Since the regular treatment methods were ineffective, she would just have to take an extraordinary route. There were so many medical books in the space, she could have Little Tiantian look into them. She was sure she would be able to cure her brother’s leg eventually.
Bai Qiuqing, sat on the sofa, watching the beautiful woman who came from the sunshine. Her eyes were complicated. When her husband, Qiao Lin, said he had found the Qiao Family’s daughter, she really thought it was Qiao Anchu. But who would have thought that the Qiao Family’s daughter would unexpectedly turn into another person.
She heard that she is involved in the entertainment industry.
This kind of person marrying into the Qiao Family, isn’t it she who is marrying above her station?
Mrs. Gu was the first to react, surprised, she said: “Old Qiao, you are really lucky, you have such a beautiful granddaughter.”
“Indeed.” Old Lady Qiao moved forward to hold her granddaughter’s hand and began to introduce, “Ranran, this is Mrs. Shangguan, Mrs. Gu, and Mrs. Lu.”
Although all the old ladies were quite old, they were all spiritually vibrant and well-dressed, giving off an elegant and noble feeling.
Qiao Xiaren greeted them one by one, and finally her eyes fell on a woman with slightly red eyes.
She looked a bit like her grandmother, wore an expensive bracelet on her hand, and was dressed in an elegant tight white dress. She was just a bit emotional, with her lips trembling constantly.
This must be her own aunt, Qiao Lang.
“That’s enough, isn’t Ranran standing right there? Do you want others to laugh?” Despite his reproof, the man next to her held her tightly in his arms.
“Good girl.” Unable to control her emotions, Qiao Lang reached out and hugged the person in front of her, “It’s good that you are back… it’s good that you are back…”
“Look at me, still not recovered yet.” Qiao Lang wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and eagerly took a red jewelry box out of her bag, opened it, and handed it to Qiao Xiaren, “This is a gift from your uncle and me. You are eighteen this year, aren’t you? In our Qiao family, we have a coming-of-age ceremony when our children turn eighteen. I will give you a better gift then.”
As the jewelry box opened, a faint red light radiated.
Bai Qiuqing, seeing the ring in the box, couldn’t help but stare in awe.
Inside lay a ruby ring. This ring, known as the Hope Ruby, was once a personal collection of the billionaire Mrs. Flav. It was sold for 6.7 million US dollars at Geneva Christie’s. Converted into RMB, this was no less than a hundred million yuan.
Being a woman, Bai Qiuqing naturally couldn’t resist the allure of jewelry. She was feeling increasingly envious, her eyes heated, not even blinking, and this was just given to Qiao Xiaren?
