Qiao Yuqi pressed her ear against the door and listened for a long time, but she couldn't hear anything at all.

About twenty minutes later, Qiao Wanwan opened the door and came out.

"How did it go?" Qiao Shengguo hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Has President Zhao forgiven you?"

"He forgave me," Qiao Wanwan said calmly. "I was so sincere, of course he was willing to forgive me."

"I don't believe you. You stay right here and don't move."

Qiao Shengguo entered the ward and inquired. Lying on the hospital bed, Zhao Shaogang weakly said, "There was a misunderstanding between Miss Qiao and me, but it's been cleared up now, and everything is fine... I will fulfill my promise regarding the capital injection required by the Qiao Group. You can repay me the 500 million slowly later..."

Qiao Shengguo was flattered and overwhelmed. "President Zhao, thank you so much!"

"Don't mention it. Even if we can't be family, we can still be friends."

"That's absolutely right! From now on, we're good friends!"

Qiao Wanwan sneered and quickly left.

Qiao Shengguo and Qiao Yuqi also left. Just as they stepped out of the hospital, Qiao Yuqi suddenly said, "Dad, I forgot my bag. I have to go back. You go home first."

Qiao Shengguo yawned. "Alright, I haven't slept well these past two days because I was worried that President Zhao would blame me. I'll go home and catch up on my sleep now."

"Um."

Qiao Yuqi watched him leave, her smile completely fading.

Why did she feel like something was off?

Given Qiao Wanwan's personality, even though she didn't lose her virginity to Zhao Shaogang, she wouldn't be so obedient as to come and apologize, would she?

And then there's Zhao Shaogang, who clearly wanted to kill Qiao Wanwan, yet forgave her in such a short time?

They even became friends with the Qiao family?

She has to go back and find out.

Qiao Yuqi returned to Zhao Shaogang's hospital room and asked, "Mr. Zhao, why did you suddenly forgive Qiao Wanwan?"

Zhao Shaogang glanced at her, his cloudy eyes flickering. "A strategic retreat, understand?"

Qiao Yuqi was delighted. "So, you're not planning to let her go?"

"That's natural!"

Qiao Yuqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief; she knew this wouldn't be over so easily!

"Mr. Zhao, it's a real pity that we couldn't succeed this time."

Zhao Shaogang looked her over with an ambiguous expression. "Yes, I have failed to live up to Miss Qiao's good intentions in planning for me."

“Since Mr. Zhao is not prepared to give up on my sister, I am willing to offer you another chance.”

It's such a pity that we couldn't use Zhao Shaogang to ruin Qiao Wanwan this time.

She had to find a way to ruin Qiao Wanwan's reputation!

In this way, no matter who her sugar daddy is, they will all treat Qiao Wanwan like trash!

Only by making Qiao Wanwan a lowly, homeless dog can she marry Xu Lin and inherit the Qiao Group with peace of mind!

"Oh?" Zhao Shaogang became interested. "You have another idea?"

"Yes, this weekend is my sister's and my birthday. We always have a very lively celebration every year. Mr. Zhao is a good friend of the Qiao family now, so of course he can attend. My sister will definitely drink too much. I'll take her to your room..."

Zhao Shaogang's eyes lit up. "It's a deal!"

Qiao Wanwan soon received a call from Qiao Yuqi, "Wanwan, who are you going to invite to your birthday party this year? Remember to send the list to your sister."

Qiao Wanwan refused, "But I don't want to celebrate my birthday with you this year."

"How can that be?" Qiao Yuqi said anxiously. "We're sisters, we celebrate our birthdays together every year. Wanwan, you can't not come."

Qiao Wanwan smiled faintly. She was just testing the waters. Of course, she would go to the birthday party.

After all, she had carefully prepared a congratulatory gift for Qiao Yuqi, waiting to give her a surprise!

"Alright then," Qiao Wanwan said reluctantly. "Since you're so eager for me to go, I naturally can't refuse."

"That's more like it! I'm so looking forward to my birthday this year."

"I'm looking forward to it too." Looking forward to seeing you on the verge of tears!

......

Cheng Zaozao's birthday was only a week later than Qiao Wanwan's. She took some time to go to the mall to buy Cheng Zaozao a gift.

The first floor was full of luxury brands, which she couldn't afford. Just as she was about to go to the second floor, her peripheral vision was suddenly drawn to a dark blue suit in the shop window.

Although Zhan Jingting couldn't stand up, she could tell he had a great physique and would look very handsome in that suit.

Qiao Wanwan walked into the shop, and the sales clerk immediately came to greet her. However, upon seeing her attire and noticing that she was lame, the clerk looked disgusted and asked, "What do you want to buy?"

"Hello, I'd like to ask how much that suit in the shop window costs."

"No need to ask, you can't afford it."

Qiao Wanwan frowned. "Regardless of whether I can afford it or not, as a customer, I certainly have the right to know the price, right?"

"Knowing will only make you feel more inferior." The salesperson looked her up and down. "This limited edition suit just arrived this morning, and there's only one available. It costs 1.08 million."

Qiao Wanwan was dumbfounded; it was indeed something she couldn't afford!

Although houses in the capital are expensive, 1.08 million yuan can cover half of the down payment in the suburbs. What kind of person can afford such expensive clothes!

Qiao Wanwan never liked to pretend to be rich when she was not, especially since she really didn't have that much money on her. "I really can't afford it, thank you."

The sales clerk rolled her eyes. "I already said I can't afford it. If you insist on asking, go away and don't delay our business!"

There was no point in arguing with someone like that. Just as she was about to leave, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her, "Wanwan, are you here to buy something?"

Qiao Wanwan turned around and saw Qiao Yuqi and Wang Chuning, the two best friends, walking over hand in hand.
