Seeing Qiao Nuan reeking of alcohol, Li Wanyue frowned with worry.
She and Qiao Chu helped Qiao Nuan back to her room.
"Why did you drink so much?! Are you unconscious, or are you asleep?"
Qiao Yu's face was tense and serious. "She's being silly again. She still hasn't grown up."
Qiao Chu explained, "Dad, it was a company dinner. Qiao Nuan was in a good mood and drank a few too many drinks. It's nothing. Joe was in the news, you should have seen it. The press conference went very well, so it's only right that Qiao Nuan and her team celebrate."
"..." Li Wanyue was unhappy that Qiao Yu said such a thing about Qiao Nuan.
Her expression softened a little when she heard Qiao Chu speak up for her.
Qiao Yu was always very strict with Qiao Nuan.
He never encouraged Qiao Nuan, always saying she wasn't hardworking or ambitious enough.
Because of Qiao Chu's fame, both her father-in-law and husband ignored Qiao Nuan.
Her Qiao Nuan is also very capable and hardworking; it's just that they always nitpick.
If they encouraged Qiao Nuan more and acknowledged her, this child wouldn't be so prone to getting stuck on trivial matters.
...
Qiao Chu could tell that Li Wanyue was unhappy and had something to say about her.
She continued, "Dad, now that Julian is gone, Qiao Nuan has a chance to be promoted. She's very thoughtful and creative; with more practice, she'll become an outstanding fashion designer. This time, as Julian's assistant, she offered many suggestions, which Julian adopted."
Qiao Yu: "Julian is leaving? Joe's design team is missing two key members, which is not a good thing. You and A-Zhi need to handle this carefully."
"Dad, Ah Zhi understands. They should issue an announcement on Monday. It's late, I'm going home now. Mom, please take care of Qiao Nuan and watch out for her vomiting. Don't let her vomit while lying down, it's easy for vomit to block her airway."
Li Wanyue nodded, "I understand, thank you Qiao Chu!"
When Qiao Chu left, Li Wanyue also went downstairs to see her off.
Qiao Chu didn't mention that scene at all.
Tomorrow, Qiao Nuan will wake up and make her own decision.
...
As Luo Luo drove, she said, "You really care about the Qiao family. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Qiao Chu said earnestly, "When you drink water, you should remember its source and repay kindness! Without the Qiao family, I really wouldn't exist!"
“I can’t understand the suffering you’ve gone through, but when I see those homeless children online, I feel so sorry for them, and it breaks my heart. You’re kind to them, and I hope they’ll be kind to you in return.”
"Thank you for tonight!"
"We're all in this together, no need to be so polite. I felt really good hearing you beat Liang Zha so badly that he screamed and begged for mercy, and I'm glad we arrived in time."
"Tomorrow, could you please deliver a fruit basket to the security guard? I'm so grateful he notified me in time."
"knew."
...
The snacks that Xiao Liu brought up were left untouched.
Jiang Zhi was still in the study.
The pack of cigarettes in front of me is almost finished.
He drank quite a bit of that whiskey.
Qiao Chu came in, sat down by the desk, and looked at Jiang Zhi.
Suddenly, she took his cigarette and stubbed it out.
"Running the air conditioner and filling the room with the smell of smoke is a form of slow suicide!"
Jiang Zhi stared intently at Qiao Chu with his deep eyes.
"I heard you got into a fight."
Qiao Chu nodded, not avoiding Jiang Zhi's probing gaze, "Mm!"
"What happened?"
"First, Liang Kai mocked and ridiculed my husband for being incompetent, I must beat him to death!"
"..."
"Secondly, he tried to sexually assault me, so he deserved to be beaten up too!"
"..."
"Thirdly, he tried to assault Qiao Nuan, so he deserved to be beaten up!"
"..."
Jiang Zhi remained silent, staring intently at Qiao Chu.
The corners of his mouth involuntarily curled up, forming a wicked arc.
