Chapter 584 Meeting (4)
Qiao Mo also couldn’t get any new information from Qiao Yin that differed from Song Yuqin’s. She didn’t know why Qiao Dehou insisted they couldn’t mention that name in front of Qiao Mo.But ever since eight years ago, no one in the Qiao family had seen that Qiao Yun again.
Qiao Mo looked at the woman in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke softly, "Where... are you working now?"
Qiao Yin was taken aback, clearly not expecting Qiao Mo to ask such a question. She let out a sneer, "What? Now that you’re Young Master Fu’s fiancée, are you planning to humiliate me?"
Qiao Mo frowned slightly, lowered her gaze, and said, "No. I just wanted to advise you to work hard. You’re actually very talented, there’s no need to look for shortcuts and always aim to reach the top in one step."
Qiao Yin was stunned again, lost in watching Qiao Mo. She couldn’t quite grasp it for a moment.
Qiao Mo gave her a slight smile, "I know you’ve always had hostility towards me. Maybe I’m not good at expressing myself. And maybe you think I’m quite delicate, but honestly, getting diarrhea from drinking cold water and having allergic reactions to clothing fabric is really uncomfortable."
Qiao Yin never expected Qiao Mo to say these things, but Qiao Mo didn’t intend for her to respond.
Perhaps it was because she had just become a mother, but facing these formerly tense relatives, she even felt a bit of warmth.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now. Work hard and don’t mix with those messy men." Qiao Mo picked up her bag and prepared to leave.
In fact, when she first entered the Qiao family, she wasn’t that delicate.
But as the days went on, her ailments increased. During her first half-year at the Qiao family, hardly a day went by that was good.
One fine day, she drank some water and ended up in the hospital. After Qiao Dehou replaced all the water at home, she started losing sleep because the light in her room wasn’t quite right.
Once Qiao Dehou changed her room, she then developed an allergy to the fabric of the bed, causing her to lie in a hospital for an entire week. One could say she suffered quite a lot.
Maybe she didn’t understand it back then, but thinking back now, maybe in Qiao Yin’s mind, she thought she was doing it on purpose.
Maybe she believed that she wanted to compete with her for father’s affection and thought she was excessively delicate.
But in fact, she really did endure a lot, even she found all of it inexplicably frustrating.
Regarding Qiao Dehou’s talk of her being born a princess, she never believed it. During that time, she had been tormented so much that she felt wronged as to why he treated her so, which is why Qiao Dehou said those things to comfort her.
It wasn’t until Qiao Mo walked more than ten meters away that Qiao Yin snapped out of it, suddenly stood up, and called out, "Qiao Mo!"
Qiao Mo paused her steps slightly and turned to look at her.
Qiao Yin was momentarily awkward; she didn’t know why she suddenly stopped her.
After a few seconds of silence, she spoke uncomfortably, "Hey... don’t think that just because you’re pretending to be nice that I’ll forgive you."
Qiao Mo nodded. She didn’t expect Qiao Yin to make peace with her, she just didn’t want things to always be so tense and confrontational. After all, no one wants their relatives to be their enemies.
Qiao Yin picked up her bag and walked past her, but after a couple of steps, she turned back, looking down at Qiao Mo, "By the way... eight years ago there was a big fire at the Qiao family warehouse. After that, I never saw Qiao Yun again. Dad said she was sent abroad, but I think she probably died."
