The next room.

Qiao Lingling lay on the kang with her eyes wide open and her face pale with anger. After fainting yesterday, she was sent to the kang, and apart from Zhang Ru taking care of her, no one else came to see her.

In the past, Qiao Sunshi would always hold her hand and say, "You are my most beloved granddaughter, and you are the one I love the most in my heart."

The warmth she couldn't feel at home was made up for here. But now she's being told it was all an illusion. Everything Sun Qiao told her before was a lie, just to curry favor with his family and get more money.

Liar! Liar! Liar!

Clutching the quilt tightly in both hands, she punctured the surface with too much force, revealing the cotton inside. As if she had found a way out, she pulled hard on the torn quilt, tearing the decades-old quilt apart in an instant.

The tattered cotton was sticking out and scattered all over the place, even on her face.

Just then, footsteps came from outside. Only then did she realize that she had done something wrong. It was too late to cover it up. With the quilt torn like that, there was nowhere to hide.

Wang Qin was shocked by the scene before her when she pushed open the door. They had only remembered that they hadn't taken their daughter with them when they reached the door, so they turned back.

What happened?

Qiao Lingling was overjoyed to see her biological mother arrive. Suddenly, an idea popped into her head: to pretend to be stupid. Would that bring bad luck to Qiao Xiaoshan?

If they can't handle Qiao Xiaoni, can't they handle Qiao Xiaoshan?

What would it feel like to have Qiao Xiaoni kneeling before him and begging for his life?

Thinking of this, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled blankly, giving the impression of being an idiot.

Wang Qin was terrified by her daughter's appearance and quickly went over to put her arm around her shoulder.

"Child, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"

Qiao Lingling kept giggling, feeling that her act was unconvincing. She even fiddled with her stray hairs, her eyes unwavering. She saw worry in Wang Qin's eyes, which made her very happy.

How long has it been since I saw worry in my mother's eyes?

Ha ha!

I was so happy I wanted to burst out laughing, but I had to hold it in.

Wang Qin was terrified when she saw her daughter's silly appearance, which made her look like a fool on the street. She could only turn around and shout at the door.

"Haixing, come inside quickly and see that our daughter has become an idiot."

Qiao Haixing was squatting by the door smoking when he heard this. He immediately threw his cigarette on the ground. He had only known that his daughter had fainted the previous morning when he arrived, but he hadn't taken it seriously, assuming she was just tired. How could she have woken up as a mentally challenged person?

When he rushed into the house and saw his daughter's appearance, he gasped in shock.

What's going on?

Wang Qin stamped her foot, "You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?"

Seeing his daughter suddenly become mentally impaired, Qiao Haixing's anger flared. Already feeling aggrieved, he found an outlet and stormed back into the main house, shouting at Qiao Tianli.

"What exactly happened yesterday? Why is the child like that?"

Qiao Tianli looked up, "What happened to Lingling?"

"She's gone mad! She's sitting in the house, grinning like an idiot!" Qiao Haixing said, hands on his hips. "Dad, you have to give me an explanation today! What happened yesterday? Didn't she say she fainted at home? How did she suddenly become like this?"
