Looking at Qiao Nuan, whose eyes were filled with malice, Qiao Lin felt a tight grip on his heart, as if it had suddenly contracted.
He still remembered the time before his ex-wife committed suicide. At that time, she was already mentally unstable, and she often stared at him with such a gaze. During that time, Qiao Lin had always felt that his ex-wife would kill him sooner or later if he continued to let it slide.
Today, he had that feeling again. Qiao Nuan seemed to overlap with his ex-wife. When he was not paying attention, she would stab him in the chest with a fruit knife.
“Qiao… Qiao Nuan, are you mentally ill like your mother?”
Looking at Qiao Lin, who was scared stiff by her, Qiao Nuan suddenly stopped her murderous gaze and smiled brightly at him. “Dad, don’t joke around. I just had a comprehensive physical examination before returning to China. How could I be mentally ill?”
The unabashed smile made Qiao Lin even more confident of his judgment. He almost broke out in a cold sweat. “That… That’s good. As long as you’re well, I’m relieved.”
Qiao Nuan picked up the documents on the table and tore them into pieces one by one. As she tore them, she said, “Dad, I don’t like others touching my things. Even if I have this idea, I can’t. So, stop having delusions about the property that mom left me, you, your wife, and your children…”
Cold sweat finally trickled down Qiao Lin’s forehead. He nodded stiffly and said, “I understand.”
Back downstairs, the banquet was in full swing. The corner where Qiao Nuan had taught Qiao Yu a lesson had also been cleaned up as if nothing had happened.
Qiao Nuan scanned the crowd and saw Qiao Yu, who had hurriedly packed up her things. She had changed into a black fishtail dress, but she was too skinny. The sexy dress looked like a straight burlap sack.
Standing beside Qiao Yu was Su He, who was wearing sunglasses. Looking more disheveled than the other, they looked quite compatible with each other.
Standing on the stairs, they were taller than everyone else at the banquet. Qiao Nuan clapped her hands to attract everyone’s attention. After that, she said in a loud voice,
“Dear guests, Hello. I’m Qiao Nuan. I’m sure everyone has heard of my name. If there are any ladies who wants to consult me on losing weight, let’s contact each other in private. The first batch of customers will receive a 20% discount…”
There were quite a few wealthy ladies who were moved. Their eyes sparkled as they looked at Qiao Nuan, who had a slender figure and looked relaxed and confident. They thought to themselves that no matter how famous the Qiao family’s eldest daughter was, at least her success in losing weight was real. If there was a chance, they had to try her weight loss method.
“Today’s main character is not me, who has returned to China after five years. Instead, it’s my dear sister and my ex-fiancé.”
Qiao Nuan gestured to where Su He and Qiao Yu were, and everyone’s attention was focused on the two of them, who were dressed inappropriately. However, no one would question their taste in front of them.
“My engagement with Su He was set when my mother was still alive. As we grew up, we became less and less compatible. Of course, what I mean is that he’s completely unworthy of me. Coincidentally, my sister, Qiao Yu, is not a picky person. The two of them have a crush on each other, so I wish them the best and congratulate them so they might be together forever!”
With that, Qiao Nuan smiled and clapped. Then, she looked at the guests, who were confused and did not know how to react. She reminded them, “What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and clap for these two.”
Under her urging, someone tried to clap. Slowly, the applause increased in number.
Su He felt that this was an extremely humiliating occasion for him. He thought of the submissive Qiao Nuan from five years ago, and he wanted to humiliate and belittle her like before, but when he looked at the beautiful woman on the steps, the anger in his chest could not be released.
How could there be such a woman? When she openly said bad things about him, that smug look on her face actually looked cute.
“Brother He, look at my sister. How could she say that about us…”
Qiao Yu tugged at the corner of Su He’s shirt, wanting Su He to come out and teach Qiao Nuan a lesson. However, she did not get a response. After taking a closer look, Qiao Yu realized that Su He was actually staring at Qiao Nuan as if he had lost his soul.
Looking around, Qiao Yu realized that most of the men in the banquet hall were in the same state as Su He. They were all mesmerized by Qiao Nuan on the stairs.
“This b*tch! As expected of a pig in heat!” Qiao Yu cursed in a low and vicious voice. She did not dare to let Qiao Nuan hear it. She was terrified that she would tear off her shirt again in front of everyone.
However, she did not know that Qiao Nuan’s five senses were far more sensitive than ordinary people.
Qiao Nuan walked down the stairs in a few steps and stood in front of Qiao Yu. She raised her arm and swung it down fiercely. “You’re scolding me, right? It seems that the lesson I gave you just now was not enough.”
As Qiao Nuan’s palm landed, Qiao Yu fell to the ground unsteadily. This was not an act. From the rapidly swelling palm print on Qiao Yu’s face, one could tell just how strong Qiao Nuan was..
