"Mom has made it very clear," Rong Yan nodded.
She was also frightened, her mind was unsettled, and her thoughts drifted into memories of the past.
Inexplicably, Chen Siyun's cry for help echoed in her mind...
"Sister... save me... sister..."
"Auntie... help me... Auntie... help me..."
"Mommy...Mommy...Waaaaah...Mommy..."
The sweet, childlike voice faded into the distance, and the person disappeared from sight, but it seemed to linger in my mind, impossible to shake off.
Rong Yan stared at her mother in horror and astonishment.
Yang Lijuan: "Are you scared? If Zhou Kaiyun knew about this, do you think she would be even crazier than you?"
"..." Rong Yan bit her lower lip tightly, remaining silent.
Yang Lijuan continued, "Don't cause any more trouble for the Rong Group. I heard that those shareholders have already confronted your father. If the Rong Group continues to decline this year, they will jointly invite Zhou Kaiyun back to China and back to the Rong Group. Do you think your father will still be in charge then?"
"..."
Suddenly, Yang Lijuan also became agitated, "That's like asking a Buddha to come back! It's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away, haven't you heard that saying? Rong Yan, what do you have to be so smug about? What makes you so arrogant? Everything you have now is given to you by me and your father. Without us, you have nothing, you are nothing!"
"..."
Yang Lijuan was also quite angry, feeling disappointed that her son was not living up to his potential.
Yang Lijuan also lost her temper.
"Qiao Chu is someone you can't afford to offend. Whether you hate her, are angry with her, or dislike her, you have to keep it to yourself."
"..."
"If Shen Siyun comes back, our Rong family will have to make room for her, you know? That's like inviting one Buddha after another. Don't you think you're being stupid?"
"..."
Rong Yan had no way to refute it.
She was also afraid that what happened back then would be discovered.
She also had doubts.
Yang Lijuan looked at her daughter and said bluntly, "Your father and I are both worried that Qiao Chu is Shen Siyun, who was abducted back then. She is just as capable as Zhou Kaiyun, and even surpasses her. Her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Zhou Kaiyun's."
"..."
“Zhou Kaiyun has been out of the public eye for 20 years. Many people don’t know her, and it’s not surprising that no one has pointed out that Qiao Chu looks like her. But your father and I are acquainted with her. When we see Qiao Chu, we think she looks like Zhou Kaiyun.”
"..."
"If Zhou Kaiyun finds out about this, do you think she'll come back to find out what happened? So, everything you say and do is stirring up a hornet's nest. If the hornets fly out and sting you, you might be the one who gets stung to death."
"..."
"If you're not afraid of death, if you really want to lose everything, then keep provoking Qiao Chu. Don't blame your father and me for not saving you or helping you then."
"..."
"I've told you everything I needed to say. You'd better take care of yourself. I won't say anything more to you or try to persuade you anymore."
After saying that, Yang Lijuan left Rong Yan's room.
Rong Yan remained seated there, stunned!
What a coincidence!
Why is it Qiao Chu again?
Why is it always her who's picking on her?
God is so unfair, so unfair!
******
Qiao Chu is trending on social media; it's impossible for her not to become famous!
Everyone knows about her important status.
Many people envy and are jealous of her!
Her phone kept ringing.
Not only did relatives and friends ask her to verify the news trending on social media, but many media outlets and magazines also wanted to book interviews with her, or even invite her to appear on their covers.
Jiang Zhi took Qiao Chu's phone, put it on silent mode, and then ignored it.
He also booked a private room at Diecuixuan Restaurant. Tonight, the two families will have dinner together, and he will answer their questions one by one in person.
...
Upon seeing her sister, Qiao Nuan gave her a hug.
"Sis, you're amazing! You're truly my idol! I want to learn from you and work hard! This is the best surprise ever, I'm so happy, I'm a little smug!"
Li Wanyue was careful around Qiao Chu, worried that Qiao Nuan might bump into Qiao Chu's stomach.
She chimed in from the side, "Qiao Nuan, that's enough! Let go of Qiao Chu and let her sit down before we talk. You have to be careful and gently touch Qiao Chu's belly."
Qiao Nuanhao smiled happily: "Mom, I know, I'll be careful!"
With great care, Qiao Nuan let go of her sister and pulled out a chair for her to sit down first.
Qiao Nuan: "Wow, that's shocking! Sister, you're our pride! Rong Yan was so angry. She tried to hit me backstage and even kicked my things. She got exposed and trended on social media. She deserves all the criticism! That person is so petty and has no good intentions. Being her bodyguard is so miserable; she even gets hit by things."
Qiao Chu: "As long as she doesn't bother you, don't stoop to her level. She's really narrow-minded and can't stand seeing others do well. She's also very unreasonable, so just ignore her. Qiao Nuan, congratulations on advancing! You're great too, keep it up!"
Qiao Nuan smiled brightly, "Thank you! I will definitely work hard and win the award. I won't let my sister down."
In an instant, everyone toasted, first congratulating Qiao Nuan on advancing to the next round.
...
Jiang Chi was overjoyed to have such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law, and he couldn't stop smiling!
Jiang Chi: "Here, I would like to express my special thanks to Elder Qiao and the two young juniors. This is a blessing for both the Jiang and Qiao families."
Qiao Yijue: "You flatter me! I only have one request: you must treat Qiao Chu well, cherish her, understand each other, we are all family, let's live in harmony, and everyone should be happy and healthy."
Both elders picked up their wine glasses, and Jiang Yan also picked up hers and said a few words.
"Qiao Chu, I truly admire you. You are really amazing, and I really respect you! Your marriage into the Jiang family is a blessing for the Jiang family and a lucky angel for all of us."
Qiao Chu picked up her drink and expressed her respect to everyone, "Let's toast! It's not just my achievement; everyone worked hard and made contributions. Happiness belongs to everyone. I also hope that my good fortune can favor everyone and bring blessings to everyone, so that everyone can be happy!"
Jiang Chi: "Great! Let's all be happy!"
Everyone responded, cheers!
Life is getting more and more comfortable and pleasant!
It's really great!
Finally, all those ups and downs are over, and all we see is hope and joy!
May the happiness bus travel further and further!
******
Why does the Jiang family always seem to get all the good things?
Upon learning that Qiao Chu was Daisy, who was also ZOE's boss, Rong Sheng felt immense regret.
He often sighed deeply.
Rong Zhan also had many regrets and frustrations.
How could he have been so blind back then?
Such a huge treasure has been lost!
Dongyang Group expanded very well in the second half of last year, and with the relationship between Qiao Chu and ZOE, its development this year is even more promising.
Rong Sheng and Rong Zhan both anticipated that this year would likely be another difficult one.
