He understands that taking care of Lu Shangyi requires money, but what business is it of yours if your friend is pursuing a girlfriend?
Qiao Jinghuai felt that he would be driven crazy by his daughter one day. He didn't want to talk to her at all. Qiao Yu noticed this and quickly put on a heartbroken expression. "Dad, you've changed. You used to say that you loved me the most and that my birth was a blessing from God."
Qiao Jinghuai immediately had a bad feeling. Sure enough, Qiao Yu's next words were, "But now you won't even give me a mere five million. You still call me your precious daughter. You're just deceiving my feelings."
"I'm going to tell Mom that you have another little one in your heart!"
"You must have another woman in your heart, that's why there's no place for me and Mom there!"
Qiao Jinghuai was speechless. Did she think money grew on trees? A mere five million? He would have to work himself to the bone all day to earn that much! Qiao Jinghuai wanted to just leave, but after hearing Qiao Yu's unreasonable accusations and counter-accusations, he suddenly had a headache.
If she really goes to my wife and adds fuel to the fire, trying to sow discord, I won't be able to sleep in bed tonight.
Helpless, Qiao Jinghuai could only wave his hand impatiently, "I'll have someone transfer the money to you in a bit."
Qiao Yu was finally satisfied. "Thank you, Dad. Take care! Have a safe journey and all the best!"
Qiao Jinghuai felt that today was really unlucky. He didn't want to see his biological daughter for another second. She disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Just as Lu Shangyi returned to her room, Qiao Yu poured herself a cup of hot water to apologize and coax him. Just then, Lu Shangyi suddenly opened the door, and the two bumped into each other without warning. Boiling water spilled out, and Qiao Yu gasped. Her eyelashes fluttered down, and Lu Shangyi's gaze fell on the bright red back of her hand.
Qiao Yu's face twisted slightly. Although she wanted to pretend to be tough and resilient in front of Lu Shangyi, unfortunately, her delicate skin was in excruciating pain.
Lu Shangyi saw through her feigned strength. After taking out burn ointment from the Qiao family's first-aid kit, she brought her fingertips, coated with the warm and cool ointment, close to her hand, bringing a tingling sensation. Qiao Yu stared at Lu Shangyi's hand without moving and exclaimed to the system, "So beautiful."
Qiao Yu remained silent. Lu Shangyi looked up and asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt." Qiao Yu smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Sister, it's okay for you to be a little wild with me. I like you just the way you are."
Lu Shangyi was speechless for a moment. The system simply didn't have ears to listen to her flirtatious talk and silently turned on the mute button.
It's a positive and wholesome system with impeccable roots, so how did it end up with a host like Qiao Yu, who's full of witty remarks and nonsense? It's truly a Waterloo for its career.
After applying the medicine, Lu Shangyi looked somewhat tired. Qiao Yu, understanding and considerate, said, "Sister Lu, I have to go back to school for evening self-study. Don't wander around while you're home alone." She waved her phone, "If you feel unwell or encounter any danger, remember to call me immediately."
Qiao Yu stood ramrod straight. "I will protect you with my life."
Lu Shangyi stared intently at her, the close proximity allowing her to clearly see the fine downy hairs on Qiao Yu's face and the shimmering tears in her eyes. Her gaze was so sharp that the other woman blinked shyly and fearfully, then unconsciously shrank back, "Sister Lu?"
Qiao Yu turned her head away guiltily, her fine eyelashes trembling incessantly. Could it be that she had discovered Qiao Yu's little scheme of keeping a mistress in a secluded place?
Lu Shangyi's heart pounded nervously, but thankfully she quickly averted her probing gaze. "Okay."
Lu Shangyi reverted to her harmless demeanor, appearing delicate and frail, as if she would collapse at the slightest push. Qiao Yu loved this vulnerable look of hers, as if she had no strength to resist no matter what she was forced to do, perfectly fulfilling her unrealistic fantasies about married life.
Lu Shangyi's face was really pale, so Qiao Yu quickly urged her to lie back on the bed. After making an appointment with Meng E, she then took a car to school.
The senior year of high school is academically demanding, but most of the students in her class are from wealthy or privileged backgrounds, all hoping to study abroad through their family connections. For example, Qiao Yu's family intends to send her abroad to gain prestige, and then have her take over the family business after she graduates and returns to China.
Qiao Yu was pondering whether or not to follow her family's arrangements to go abroad when the phone rang again. Her delicate eyelashes drooped; it was Meng E again. "What is it?"
Meng E, an omega who usually speaks softly and gently, nearly deafened Qiao Yu with her loud voice. "Yu Yu, in broad daylight, how dare you reach out and grope Lu Shangyi?!"
Meng E was shocked. "Yu Yu, do you really not know what Lu Shangyi represents? I always thought that you liked to look at beautiful women just to cultivate your character and refine your temperament, but I never expected you to be so audacious as to even lay a finger on Lu Shangyi!"
"For the sake of our friendship, when the Lu family is after you, I will definitely try my best to beg them to leave you with a whole corpse." Meng E was speechless. "You know that Lu Shangyi is the apple of Madam Lu's eye. Now that you have tainted her innocence, she will definitely not let you off easily."
"I advise you to turn back now, as this is a bottomless pit of suffering. Be sensible and take Miss Lu back with you. Go to her door in person to apologize and beg for Madam Lu's forgiveness."
Qiao Yu was full of questions, and before she could even offer a word of explanation, Tang Shu called again. Qiao Yu had no choice but to hang up on Meng E. "E'e, I have something to do here. I'll contact you later."
Tang Shu rarely contacted her first. When Qiao Yu answered the phone, Tang Shu's shocked yet gloating voice rang out as soon as she said "hello," "Qiao Yu, you can't escape this time. You've defiled Madam Lu's most precious treasure, you can just wait to die."
"I specifically warned you not to provoke Lu Shangyi that day."
Qiao Yu was speechless for a moment. She admitted that she had ulterior motives towards Lu Shangyi, but the key question was, how exactly had she tarnished Lu Shangyi's reputation? Qiao Yu was furious. "Which bastard is spreading rumors and slandering my name?!"
This time it was Tang Shu's turn to be puzzled. "This matter has spread like wildfire, and there are even dedicated threads about it online. You still don't know?"
Tang Shu was immediately disgusted. "You're so shameless! You did such a thing and you still don't want to admit it. If someone hadn't caught the evidence, you lecherous playboy would have become an outlaw."
There are even posts about it online? Qiao Yu felt a wave of dizziness. "Stop gloating."
"You're just jealous that Sister Lu has me, but you don't." Since she was already in the muddy water, she might as well fight like a ghost, one by one, so that no one could escape. "You've always liked to take things from me since we were little. Every time, you deliberately steal the people I like and keep them for yourself, as if you're afraid that I'll be with other women."
"Tang Shu, do you have a crush on me?"
Tang Shu was taken aback. "What?"
Qiao Yu's tone became cheerful, yet subtly tinged with embarrassment, "If you like me, just tell me directly. I won't look down on you. Why go to such lengths to get me?"
“I understand your dilemma. After all, I am so charming and I can differentiate into an extremely excellent alpha, so it is understandable that you have fantasies and feelings for me. Although you know in your heart that you shouldn't do this, and we are best friends, doing this will deeply hurt our relationship, Shushu, if you suppress your feelings for too long, you will get sick.”
"With such a broad mind, how could I possibly laugh at you over such a trivial matter?"
"I'm so happy!"
Tang Shu grew increasingly furious. What nonsense was this crazy woman spouting? Enraged, she slammed down the phone. "Qiao Yu, you shameless bastard!"
Tang Shu trembled with anger; she must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to have met this crazy woman.
He has a crush on her? No way!
Is she crazy? Of all the alphas in the world, she's the only one who likes Qiao Yu.
How could she say such things with a clear conscience?
Tang Shu decisively blocked Qiao Yu. Blocking one phone number wasn't enough; Tang Shu also deleted Qiao Yu's WeChat and unfollowed her on Weibo until she could no longer find any trace of Qiao Yu. But even after doing all this, Tang Shu was still very angry, so angry that her cheeks were puffed out and she crossed her arms, unable to concentrate on anything.
"Qiao Yu is shameless!" she concluded again.
If Qiao Yu doesn't kneel down and beg her this time, she can forget about making up with her.
Even if you sent yourself a cake with a diameter of ten meters, it wouldn't make a difference!
Although she had angered Tang Shu and driven her away, Qiao Yu was still terrified as she looked at the news online. She had no choice but to ask the system for help: "Can you find a way to delete these things?"
The system shook its head mercilessly, "No."
"Not a single flower or blade of grass in the original world should be easily altered, otherwise the entire world will collapse."
Qiao Yu was speechless. So what use was this broken system to her? After abandoning the unattractive and useless system, Qiao Yu sat in the car racking her brains. Just as she was about to ask her dear old father for help, her phone suddenly vibrated three times in a row.
She picked it up and was so shocked she almost threw the phone away.
Jiang Mei, Song Wanzi, and Lu Shangyi, the other protagonist in this matter, all sent her text messages at the same time: "What's going on with the news online?"
Qiao Yu clicked on the news and saw: [The Love-Hate Relationship Between the Qiao Family's Daughter and the Lu Family's Daughter: She Flees, She Chases, Neither Can Escape!]
Qiao Yu: "…………" I've never been so speechless in my life.
