Chapter 9 Crossing His Bottom Line

Half an hour ago.

Qiao Xuan received a call from his assistant Bai Chuan in the hospital.

"Something happened at Jiangda!"

Qiao Xuan rushed to Jiangda without stopping.

When he learned that Qu Ge had been called to the principal's office, he went straight to find her.

Who knew that I could hear her say loudly outside the door -

"My boyfriend sent me to school today!"

Boy friend.

Is she referring to the man on the motorcycle?

Then what is he?

Qiao Xuan's teeth were clenched so hard that they hurt.

He knocked hard on the principal's office door.

Principal Song shuddered with fear.

He had clearly asked his secretary to stand guard outside and not let anyone get close, so how could he be so quick...

"Principal Song, it's me."

Qiao Xuan's voice, filled with suppressed anger, made Principal Song's face turn pale in an instant.

Why did this big Buddha come at this time instead of earlier or later?

The heir of Qiao Group is someone he wouldn't dare to offend even if he had a hundred guts.

Principal Song immediately straightened his suit, made a gesture to Qu Ge to keep quiet, and then ran to open the door.

"Mr. Qiao, why are you here? Why didn't you say hello in advance so I could greet you at the door!"

"Don't bother."

Qiao Xuan glanced around.

The principal's office, which should have been tidy, was in a mess, with signs of a conflict that had just occurred.

He frowned and his eyes fell on Qu Ge.

Her hair was messy and a button of her shirt had been torn off.

Qiao Xuan immediately guessed what had just happened here.

Song Youde, President of Jiangnan University.

He had heard the old man's reputation as a lecher many times before.

But he never thought that Song Youde would dare to lay his hands on his woman!

I'm just tired of living!

Qiao Xuan walked straight towards Qu Ge and picked her up sideways.

Qu Ge frowned in resistance, but she couldn't resist him at all.

Seeing that she was still restless, Qiao Xu'an was displeased: "You don't want to leave with me, you want to stay here?"

Qu Ge suddenly didn't dare to move.

Although both men in front of her made her feel disgusted, in this situation, Qiao Xuan was obviously the safer choice.

Watching Qiao Xuan carrying Qu Ge away, Song Youde's face turned paler than paper, he trembled like a sieve, and his legs went limp as he collapsed to the ground.

"It's over... it's all over!"

…

Downstairs, the driver was already on standby.

Qiao Xuan forcefully stuffed Qu Ge into the car, his face still gloomy and ugly.

"What is your relationship with that man on the motorcycle?" he asked again.

Qu Ge didn't have the energy to explain this kind of problem right now.

She was still frightened by what had just happened. She just wanted to leave this place immediately and hide herself like an ostrich.

Qu Ge's silence made Qiao Xuan's chest ache.

He wanted to get angry, but when he glanced at her sideways and saw her haggard appearance with red eyes, the fire burning in his heart was instantly extinguished.

"I'll take care of Song Youde's affairs." He said slowly, trying to comfort her. "Don't worry, with me here, no one will dare to fire you."

Qu Ge still didn't say anything, but just curled up into a small ball.

She always did that when she was scared.

Qiao Xuan felt as if a needle had pricked his heart, causing a dull pain.

He sighed, his tone a little gentler: "I have asked people to remove the trending searches online. I will find out who took those photos."

check?

Do you need to check again?

This is something that is so obvious that even a blind person can see it.

Unfortunately, Qiao Xian is not blind with his eyes, but blind with his heart.

Qu Ge snorted coldly: "You can delete things on the Internet, but can you also delete the memories in other people's minds?"

Since the incident happened, I can’t count how many people have seen those dirty things.

What’s the point of deleting it now?

It just makes him feel less guilty.

Undisguised sarcasm was clearly visible on Qu Ge's lips.

This kind of expression is what Qiao Xuan dislikes the most.

The nameless anger that had just been suppressed once again burned in his deep eyes.

"Qu Ge, what's wrong with you lately? How long do you want to keep causing trouble before you're satisfied?!"

She broke up with him at every turn, but he endured it.

He endured hanging out with a wild man of unknown origin all day long.

He was embarrassed by the nonsense he said in front of Liu Yuan in the morning, but he endured it.

Now, he was so angry that he tried to coax her in a nice way, but he still had to be mocked by her in a sarcastic way!

Do you really think he's a Ninja Turtle?!

Qiao Xian's patience was running out, and his cold eyes clearly showed his final warning.

If Qu Ge still can't straighten her hair and admit her mistake to him, he will no longer tolerate her unreasonable behavior.

Qu Ge certainly knew where Qiao Xuan's bottom line was.

But this time she was determined to get over it.

"I thought I made it clear this morning that I wasn't trying to cause trouble with you."

"I'm breaking up with you!"

Qu Ge said the word "break up" clearly and decisively, more firmly than any time before.

In her opinion, they had actually broken up a long time ago.

After all, breaking up is not divorce and does not require the signatures of both parties. It is enough as long as one person is determined to leave.

Seeing the determination in Qu Ge's eyes, Qiao Xuan felt as if someone was strangling his throat and couldn't breathe.

His brows were furrowed, and every bulging vein on his forehead was roaring with anger.

"Have you thought it through?"

"Yes, I've thought it through."

Before he could finish his words, Qu Ge answered without hesitation.

Her bluntness only made him more irritated.

After three seconds of dead silence, he squeezed out a few words hoarsely from between his almost broken teeth.

"Okay, I promise!"

Qu Ge really angered Qiao Xuan this time.

The man, who always maintained his gentlemanly manners, stopped the car, left her on the side of the road and drove away.

Watching the black Maybach disappear around the corner, Qu Ge breathed a sigh of relief.

He accepted her proposal to break up.

Does this mean that she can finally extricate herself from this disgusting and hypocritical relationship?

So……

Next, she still has more than half a month to concentrate on finding a way to deal with Qiao Wanwan!

…

Qu Ge dragged his tired body back home.

She wanted to have a good sleep first, but when she went upstairs and saw the half-open door, she remembered that Rong Zhoubai had broken the door lock in the morning to save her.

Now, she had to clean up the mess in the room first.

Qu Ge took a deep breath and called a locksmith.

It just so happened that after changing the door lock, Qiao Xuan no longer had to ask him for the key back.

Qu Ge returned to the room.

There was a photo of her and Qiao Xuan on the bedside table.

It looks unlucky.

She simply packed up all the things related to Qiao Xuan and threw them into the trash can at once.

Group photo taken over the three years.

The ring he gave her when he proposed to her.

And also, those shabby puppets that she bought from who knows where to fool her...

After cleaning these things, the house instantly became a lot cleaner.

Qu Ge could finally sleep comfortably wrapped in the quilt.

This was the most sound sleep she had had in a while, and those nightmares never disturbed her again.

It was dusk when I woke up.

Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, Qu Ge felt inexplicably empty in his heart.

After taking a shower, a notification suddenly popped up on the laptop on the table -

"You have a new email."

Sender: RONG.

Is it daylight?

As soon as Qu Ge opened the email, he received a call from Rong Zhoubai.

"I sent you a form, fill it out when you have time."

The title of the email attachment read "Immigration Application Form".

Qu Ge raised an eyebrow: "I still need to fill out a form? I thought you rich people could just make a phone call and everything would be done."

"Who told you that? Rich people are also legal citizens and have to follow the rules."

“That’s what it says in novels.”

While wiping his hair, Qu Ge carefully looked at the contents of the form.

I had just filled in a few words when my phone rang again.

This time it's a schedule reminder.

"Eight o'clock in the evening, tutoring on Yongkang Road."

When he saw this line of words, Qu Ge remembered that he had taken this job on a part-time software platform half a month ago.

So many things had happened these days that she had long forgotten about this.

During the three years that she was with Qiao Xuan, although he always transferred money to her and bought her gifts, Qu Ge never spent the money.

When Qu Shunzhi was still alive, she always kept the words she read in the book on her lips:

“The gifts from heaven have already been secretly marked with a price. Don’t always think about getting something for nothing, because you don’t know what you will pay for it.”

When Qu Ge was young, he didn't understand what this meant.

Now, nothing is more appropriate for her than this sentence.

In the past, everyone said that her family must have accumulated blessings for several lifetimes to have found a perfect son-in-law like Qiao Xuan.

But what about now?

There was a bitter arc on Qu Ge's lips.

Get up.

Change clothes and go out.

Revenge must be taken.

Life must go on.

You have to eat tomorrow's meal.

Qu Ge took the bus to Yongkang Road.

For some reason, as soon as she got in the car, her right eyelid kept twitching.

The elders always say that if you jump to the left, you will get wealth, and if you jump to the right, you will get disaster.

She couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

At this time, a message from the employer was received on the part-time job software.

"Teacher Qu, don't forget to come and teach Zihao tonight."

"Of course, I'm on my way. Don't worry, I'll be there on time."

After replying to the message, Qu Ge clicked on the employer's information page and read it carefully.

He is an old user who is often active on the platform, and his profile picture is a photo of his family.

There shouldn't be any problem.

Qu Ge comforted himself.

Maybe it's because I've been experiencing so much lately that I've become so suspicious...

Half an hour later.

Qu Ge got out of the car and went to the address given by his employer.

The winding alleys made her dizzy.

Fortunately, there are bustling residential areas nearby, and there are many passers-by walking in and out of the alley, so it is not too deserted.

After crossing another alley, she finally arrived at the apartment building her employer mentioned.

It is called an apartment, but in fact it is a self-built house in the urban village. The landlord puts up a sign and rents the house at a higher price to young people who come to Jiangzhou City to work in the surrounding office buildings.

“501…”

Qu Ge found the door by following the house number.

The person who opened the door was a young man who looked about her age.

Qu Ge thought he had found the wrong place and confirmed the address again.

The other person urged her into the house with a smile on his face.

"Teacher Qu, right? Yes, it's right here, come in!"

"You are... Zihao's brother?"

Qu Ge walked inside suspiciously, his finger always on the emergency call button of his phone.

Looking around——

This house does show signs of a family of three living there.

There were children's toys everywhere, and a few slippers of different sizes and colors were scattered next to the shoe cabinet at the door.

However, Qu Ge had been in the room for such a long time, but he didn't see anyone else except the man next to him.

Bang!

The door slammed shut behind him.

Before Qu Ge could react, a woman's shrill, sneering laugh suddenly emanated from the innermost room...
