C27 Part1

“Mom, what are you talking about? How much of the entertainment news can be true? I’ve been busy shooting a new film lately, where can I find the time…”  Qiao Nan took the newspaper, looking indifferent when he saw the headlines on the front page.

It was Jia’er.

“Are you saying it’s not? Look, this isn’t good at all. She looks like a vixen! Nowadays, university students  are so bold. How dare they go out on the streets dressed like that?” Mrs.  Qiao said on and on.

Her son was excellent in everything, and who wouldn’t be jealous of the Qiao family’s huge fortune? Almost all the stars and starlets wanted to climb into the bed of her son, seducing him all day long.

Want to enter the Qiao family? Look at yourself first!

“Mom, this is for the role-playing event, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know. Jia’er isn’t that kind of person.” When Qiao Nan heard his Mom speak such mean words, it gave birth to the displeasure in his heart.

“This woman is still a student of A University, why are you so attentive to send her off? She let you pick her up and drop her off on purpose, and now, she’s using your fame to make headlines?” Mrs. Qiao knocked on the newspaper and looked at her son in anger.  And Jia’er? You called her so affectionately, this woman has a scheming heart.“

Qiao Nan didn’t bother to talk to her, getting up from the leather sofa and headed up to the first floor. This time if he hadn’t taken the initiative to invite her, Jia’er wouldn’t get into his car.

Why did she loathe him so much when she knew she was Qiao Feng? Qiao Nan couldn’t figure it out. He had left abruptly two years ago and didn’t want to make it difficult for her by not saying goodbye.

His last contact with Jia’er was by phone during summer when he changed schools. When she called he had to harden his heart and told her not to call again because his mother was right next to him, watching and forbidding him to be in an early relationship.

They had lost touch since. Li Jia changed so much in the past two years that he hardly recognized her. She had become better and shone brighter. But her eyes no longer followed him, and there was even a vague hostility and disgust.

Qiao Nan didn’t expect that they would be associated again because of this incident. He was slightly happy when he read the headlines that she was his girlfriend. At least to outsiders, she seemed to belong to him.

“Honey, you’re back.”

“Where’s Qiao Nan? What exactly are the identities of the few A-students he was in the news with?”

Inside the living room, Qiao’s father handed his briefcase to Mrs. Qiao with a very grave expression on his face.

“What’s wrong?” Mrs. Qiao hadn’t seen her husband look this pale in a long time.

“What happened?” Mrs. Qiao was assisted by her maid and sat on the sofa opposite Father Qiao. “What’s so important?”

“A University?” Mrs Qiao’s face fell as soon as she heard that. “Is it today’s headline? That woman is trying to pester our Qiao Nan again?”

Father Qiao grimaced. “What do you know! You have grown your hair long but still short in knowledge!”

Mrs. Qiao bristled. “It’s all the same, seeing our family’s money and jumping all over it.”

Father Qiao didn’t even bother to pay attention to her.

“What happened to those students?” Qiao Nan was also a little nervous in his heart. What happened to Jia’er?

“Wasn’t your event cancelled today? Why did you still appear at the venue? Those three students from A University in your car, two of them were children from the Yun family. They were covered in mosaics, people from the Yun family came afterwards to talk about it. I thought it was over, but who would have thought that there were other forces asking the newspaper to withdraw this issue of the newspaper!”
