Chapter 422 Song Song is no longer the same as before
Helian Sulan didn’t hesitate at all, she directly agreed to Feng Wen Yue’s conditions and soon after Feng Wen Yue left, she called Qiao Yu...Because it couldn’t be explained clearly over the phone, she arranged to meet her at a café to talk in detail.
Recently, Qiao Yu was troubled by how to sabotage Xiao Jinghuai and Song Song’s relationship, as if all her previous efforts had been in vain.
So when she heard this good news, she was momentarily excited, "Mom, is everything you said true?"
"Yes, of course, judging by your expression, it seems you and I are on the same page."
Helian Sulan elegantly stirred her coffee, "It looks like this matter will soon be resolved."
"No." Qiao Yu suddenly furrowed her brows tightly and said: "My words no longer carry any weight with Xiao Jinghuai, so it’s a bit tricky."
Helian Sulan confidently replied, "Xiao Jinghuai is a sentimental man. If it weren’t for you back then... he wouldn’t be in his current situation. So in his heart, you still hold a certain importance, if not someone he wants to marry, then at least a very important sister."
"Therefore, Yu’er, you must grasp this mindset of his, understand?"
Qiao Yu nodded, she knew this was a perfect opportunity; if she uses it well, she can certainly drive a wedge between Xiao Jinghuai and Song Song...
She realized during this period that Xiao Jiuru’s mind was completely elsewhere and not helping her, so she couldn’t rely on him, just hope he doesn’t hinder her.
But there was still something she didn’t understand...
"Mom, why did you listen to Feng Wen Yue? What exactly does she know that makes you so afraid?"
Helian Sulan’s eyes flashed briefly, "Yu’er, would you blame me if I told you?"
Qiao Yu smiled, "Of course not, you are my mom, no matter what you do, I will forgive you."
Helian Sulan’s eyes brimmed with tears, she held Qiao Yu’s hands tightly, "Daughter, listen to me. I knew your dad before he had anything. But at that time, I was afraid he wouldn’t accept me because of our social class difference, so I never confessed, just stayed by his side as a friend and sister. I didn’t expect he would later meet Song Xueqin. That woman used her beauty to seduce your dad, and shortly after, they got married and established the Qiao Family..."
"Daughter, how do you expect me to accept this? I was the one who liked your dad first, what right does Song Xueqin have to steal love? So later I came up with a plan. Your dad hates betrayal, especially from the woman he deeply loves, so I set Song Xueqin up with Huo Chen, allowing them to be caught in the act by your dad. In a fit of rage, your dad broke Huo Chen’s leg, and soon after, Song Xueqin discovered she was pregnant, which led to Song Song."
"I know that woman. She would never willingly do a DNA test when driven out by your dad. But unexpectedly, Song Song really isn’t your dad’s child, hahaha..."
"She really is Huo Chen’s bastard, a bastard! This is karma, karma for stealing love!"
"..."
Helian Sulan became more and more agitated. The thought that Qiao Yanjing still had Song Xueqin in his heart made her gnash her teeth in hatred.
That he still longed for a woman who physically betrayed him showed how deep his feelings for her truly were!
This matter was a substantial blow to Qiao Yu. For a moment, she was completely stunned, as she had always assumed Song Xueqin was the mistress, only to find the real mistress was her own mother...
But what does it matter?
These things have already passed, now she is the rightful heiress of the Qiao Family.
Qiao Yu slowly organized her thoughts, "Feng Wen Yue learned about this accidentally while serving our family, and used it to threaten you?"
Helian Sulan nodded helplessly, "That’s why daughter, you must help me."
"How can you be sure that after this matter is settled, she will really keep quiet, what if she continues to threaten you?"
Helian Sulan had thought about this too, "Don’t worry, I’d say if she dares to speak, I’ll let her son go to jail!"
"...Alright, I’ll go talk to Brother Jinghuai, wait for my good news."
Helian Sulan was finally relieved, "Yu’er, I’m counting entirely on you for this."
"Yes, don’t worry, I’ll definitely get it done." Qiao Yu responded with a smile.
Even if it’s just to break up Xiao Jinghuai and that Song Song, she will certainly get it done.
...
Qiao Yu struck while the iron was hot, leaving the café and immediately heading to the Xiao Family...
That’s where she could easily find Xiao Jinghuai, and only there could they have a better conversation.
Xiao Jinghuai didn’t expect Qiao Yu to come looking for him at this time, he furrowed his sword-like eyebrows slightly, "Are you looking for me?"
Qiao Yu feigned hesitation, sweetly saying, "Brother Jinghuai, I have an unreasonable request today, I’m not sure if you will agree?"
Xiao Jinghuai put down the pen in his hand, a deep light flickered in the depths of his dark eyes, "Qiao Yu, I already told you last time, except for matters of marriage and some illegal activities, I can agree to anything else."
"Really?" Qiao Yu’s smile was youthful and radiant, but then she appeared somewhat anxious, "But that matter does relate to the law somewhat, but it’s not asking Brother Jinghuai to commit any wrongdoing, I just want to..."
Xiao Jinghuai squinted his eyes, he had a vague idea of what she wanted to say, "Because of Xu Lang?"
Qiao Yu smiled with her eyes and eyebrows, nodding, "Brother Jinghuai, you’re so smart, you guessed it right away. You should know Mengni is my best friend, her feelings for Xu Lang run deep, I don’t want to see her sad and unhappy, so I want you to spare him."
Xiao Jinghuai suddenly became somewhat curious, "Why do you think I would deal with him?"
"Because... Song Song!"
Qiao Yu’s face seemed very innocent, "The current Song Song is different from the past, now that Lin Man is dead, she would definitely blame Xu Lang and do everything to make him suffer terribly. Brother Jinghuai, you... love Song Song so much, so you will surely help her, right!"
"I know in your heart, I’m definitely not as important as Song Song, but still, I came to ask this favor, will... you agree?"
"Okay—"
Qiao Yu was a bit surprised, "Wha—what?"
She didn’t expect him to agree so readily; that should be impossible!
He doesn’t consider Song Song’s feelings?
It seems Song Song’s position in his heart is not that significant after all.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yu’s mood turned joyful.
But in the next moment, she felt as if she was plunged into an icy cell as the man said, "This time I can agree, but from now on we are done. Meaning if anything happens in the future, I won’t do you any favors, do you understand?"
Qiao Yu stared at the handsome and extraordinary man in front of her, "Done?"
Xiao Jinghuai had a serious expression, his gaze as firm as a rock, "Yes, past matters are done, in the future you are just Qiao Yu, my uncle’s fiancée."
"No longer..."
