He then spoke to Qiao Nian after he calmed down a little. “Oh right, Nian Nian, I’ve heard about what happened on your school’s forum.
“Your dad is aware of it as well. He told you not to worry about it. He looked for the Chief of Police already.”
But they couldn’t understand what Liang Heng was trying to do. His response was ambiguous.
Jiang Li then said with a serious expression, “No matter what, we aren’t a bunch of pushovers. We’ll seek justice for you!”
“Alright.” Qiao Nian wanted to tell him not to worry. She already knew who was behind it and had someone settling it already.
It was just a matter of time till it was resolved.
…
In the Rose Garden in the Qiao Family’s Villa.
Fu Ge’s car arrived at the villa.
Qiao Chen released her seatbelt and then said shyly, “Brother Fu, thank you for sending me back.”
Fu Ge seemed distracted the whole night. He replied coldly, “Have a good rest.”
Qiao Chen recalled that he would want to kiss her usually. But it seemed that he wasn’t interested. She could tell from his handsome face that he was getting impatient with her.
Qiao Chen felt that her smile was forced.
Her heart sank.
She clenched her fists as she cursed Qiao Nian in her heart. She then forced a smile and said, “I will. Brother Fu, you should head back and rest early as well. I’ll call you later.”
However, Fu Ge rejected her. “It’s too late already. We should skip the call. You should sleep early tonight. We can talk tomorrow.”
Qiao Chen was speechless.
She was getting angry.
No matter how busy or tired he was, he would call her daily even when he was studying in Beijing. Why was he not calling tonight?
Was it because he just saw Qiao Nian sleeping with an old man?
That was why he was upset?
That was why he felt horrible?
Fu Ge noticed that she turned pale, as though she was hurt by him. In the past, he’d feel guilty for treating her this way.
However, he felt exhausted seeing how reliant she was on him.
He then thought of Qiao Nian.
Qiao Chen was nowhere as pretty as Qiao Nian.
Qiao Nian never wore a skirt, and this was the first time he saw her wearing one. The outfit accentuated her good figure, and her ponytail gave her a clean look and showed off her pretty face. Honestly, he was shocked by how pretty she was.
If she was like this last time, he wouldn’t have given up their relationship like that.
Qiao Chen saw that he was daydreaming in front of her. She could tell who he was thinking of.
She felt humiliated and shamed.
She clenched her fist even more and yelled uncontrollably, “Brother Fu…”
Fu Ge broke out of his daze. Then, he saw that his girlfriend was tearing up. Suddenly, he felt that he was getting impatient.
He passed her the bag she left in the car and said, “I’m sorry, I was thinking about my thesis and got distracted. This is your bag, rest well.”
It was such a bad excuse that Qiao Chen couldn’t bring herself to believe it, but she didn’t dare to expose him.
It was easy for Fu Ge to change girlfriends.
But it took her great effort to enter the Fu family.
If she wanted to be a part of the upper echelon of society, she had to leverage their relationship.
Even though she was heartbroken by him, she didn’t dare to expose him. She didn’t dare to even start a fight.
Swallowing her emotions, she nodded and said gently, “You must be tired as well. Rest well.”
