Chapter 907 Apology

Qiao Xing stopped and turned to look at her. "What's wrong?"

"This is the Qin family, not your humble Qiao family. You don't even have the most basic manners and etiquette. Is this how your parents raised you?"

Qiao Xing was too lazy to argue with Qin Fei, because she knew perfectly well what Qin Fei would argue about with her even with her eyes closed.

It's nothing more than things like, "Your status is not good enough for the Qin family," or "You are lucky to have married Qin Ce."

Qin Fei's identity fits perfectly; she often sees brainless supporting female characters in short drama videos, or spoiled and willful rich girls from a young age.

They lack emotional intelligence, but they're masters at making things difficult for you.

Qiao Xing's silence made Qin Fei even more dissatisfied. "I'm talking to you!"

Qiao Xing was utterly exhausted. To demonstrate the politeness and etiquette Qin Fei had mentioned, she forced a smile and said to Qin Fei, "No matter how you look at it, I'm your elder. Shouldn't you be the one greeting people?"

Qin Fei said arrogantly, "Take a closer look. This is the Qin family home. Everything you wear and use, even a pair of socks, was bought with the Qin family's money. To put it bluntly, even if you marry Qin Ce, you are still an outsider. When did it become your turn to act as an elder of the Qin family?"

Qiao Xing said with a forced smile, "Just because you don't want to admit it doesn't mean I don't. Just like you don't call Qin Ce 'brother,' it still doesn't change the fact that he is the eldest son of the Qin family."

"Feifei, as an elder, I have to give you some advice." Qiao Xing deliberately spoke to Qin Fei in the tone of Grandpa Qin, "Some things are not as you wish to be. Don't be too willful, or you will suffer sooner or later."

"you!"

Qin Fei puffed up her cheeks with anger and glared fiercely at Qiao Xing.

Qiao Xing found her expression hilarious.

Even though you can't win an argument, you still insist on causing trouble for no reason. In the end, you don't gain anything and just make yourself angry. What's the point?

Qiao Xing's smile remained unchanged, but his tone became slightly sarcastic.

"I won't hold it against you this time. Next time you see me, remember to call me sister-in-law and say hello."

"You're just a country bumpkin! What right do you have to act so arrogantly in front of me!" Qin Fei's face turned pale and then green, she looked extremely angry.

"Even if I came from outer space, I'm still your sister-in-law. As long as Qin Ce and I are not divorced, I will always be your elder."

"You're not!"

Qin Fei was so angry she was about to explode.

Qiao Xing felt that arguing with her was a waste of his energy. They were just arguing about these pointless topics, like arguing with elementary school students.

Qiao Xing ignored her and turned to leave.

Unexpectedly, Qin Fei caught up with Qiao Xing in a few steps and grabbed him.

"I haven't finished speaking yet! Who said you could leave!"

Qiao Xing said helplessly, "Miss, what else do you want to do?"

Qin Fei questioned her, "What do you want from the Qin family! Isn't Qin Ce the one who cares least about the Qin family? Why are you suddenly back now? Are you plotting something?!"

Hearing her words, Qiao Xing felt that she was absolutely right.

Qin Fei really resembles those female supporting characters who court disaster.

Not only are they brainless, but they're also incredibly annoying.

Qiao Xing tried to pull her wrist away, but Qin Fei wouldn't let go.

Worried that an argument might harm her unborn child, she softened her tone and said to Qin Fei, "Don't worry, we came back because of Grandpa's matter, not to fight for the Qin family's property, and certainly not to kick you out. Can you let me go first?"

"Who are you trying to fool! Don't think I don't know that Qin Ce keeps saying he doesn't care about the Qin family's things, but he's been staying at the Qin family's house and won't leave. Now he's even brought you to live at the Qin family's house. His intentions are so obvious, what are you still pretending for!"

Qiao Xing couldn't help but frown.

She could tolerate Qin Fei's spoiled, domineering, and unreasonable behavior.

But she couldn't accept it; she was being unfairly slandered against her and Qin Ce.

What wasn't originally a fact suddenly seemed to become quite real after she mentioned it.

The main concern is what she says, but what if outsiders find out?

Everyone knows that what is said without intention may be taken to heart by the listener. The Qin family's situation is already quite sensitive, and there are many outsiders who want to see the Qin family make a fool of themselves.

If someone with malicious intent were to exploit this incident, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Qiao Xing's face turned cold as she stared at Qin Fei and said, "Qin Fei, since you know you're from the Qin family, you should know what you should and shouldn't say. Everything requires evidence. You're spreading these rumors out of nowhere. Have you thought about the consequences for others?"

Qin Fei not only did not back down, but also took Qiao Xing's words as mere sophistry.

"Did I hit the nail on the head? You still dare to say you have no ulterior motives? If you really had no intentions, why did you come to the Qin family right after my brother had problems at the company?"

"I think Grandpa is just a cover; you're all hiding something you're not!"

Qiao Xing had expected Qin Fei to be willful, but she hadn't expected her to be so unreasonable.

They can't listen to anything, good or bad.

Qiao Xing didn't even have the energy to refute her. "Then what can I say for you to believe me?"

"Don't blame me for not warning you, before this gets out of hand, you and Qin Ce should leave the Qin family right away, or you'll be the ones who lose face!"

Qiao Xing was both amused and exasperated. "Why do you think I should listen to you?"

"Because your surname is Qiao, not Qin!"

Qiao Xing felt that Qin Fei was beyond saving. "I don't want to argue with you. Let go of my hand."

Qin Fei persisted, "I'm giving you three days to leave the Qin family immediately, do you hear me!"

Qin Fei was afraid that Qiao Xing would run away, so she not only didn't let go, but gripped him even tighter.

Qiao Xing was in a bit of pain from her pinch, but dared not use too much force. As they were arguing, a shout suddenly came from upstairs.

"Feifei! Stop fooling around!"

Qiao Xing and Qin Fei looked up at the same time and saw Qin Liang coming downstairs with a dark face.

"Feifei, let go of my hand," Qin Liang said seriously to Qin Fei.

Qin Fei refused, "Dad, you don't know, they..."

"I told you to let them go!" Qin Liang raised his voice and repeated.

Qin Fei shrank back in fright before slowly releasing Qiao Xing's hand.

Qin Liang said, "Apologize to your sister-in-law."

Qiao Xing and Qin Fei both widened their eyes in unison.

Qiao Xing was surprised because this was the first time she had heard Qin Liang acknowledge her identity.

I don't know if it's just for show.

Qin Fei was incredulous because Qin Liang had asked her to apologize to Qiao Xing.

"Why should I apologize!" Qin Fei said angrily. "I didn't do anything wrong!"
