The lawyer was stunned by Qiao Jiabao's question. The next second, he said calmly, "She passed away peacefully."
"Then I feel relieved. Thank you for telling me this." Qiao Jiabao did not continue to dig deeper. He was afraid that he would get some painful answers. As long as he knew that Cen Juan did not suffer, he would be satisfied.
"You're welcome. I'll call you when the notarization is completed," the lawyer continued.
Qiao Jiabao nodded and hung up the phone.
The next second, he raised his head, looked at Jiang Ranran and the children of the Gu family, and said in a calm tone: "Cen Juan died and left me some assets. The lawyer called to discuss the inheritance."
After briefly explaining the situation, Qiao Jiabao stopped talking.
The children of the Gu family looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Jiang Ranran. Of course, they knew that Cen Juan was the culprit who hit Jiang Ranran, and her death did not deserve it, but she was Qiao Jiabao's biological mother after all.
"Jiabao, do you want to go and bring back Cen Juan's body?" Jiang Ranran's words shocked everyone.
Jiang Ranran is already so magnanimous that even if Cen Juan tries her best to hurt her, she is willing to let Qiao Jiabao bury Cen Juan?
But Qiao Jiabao refused without a second thought, "I won't. She's not my mother anymore."
After this incident, although Qiao Jiabao felt sad, he rationally knew that he should look forward and not look back. The future is the most important thing for Qiao Jiabao.
Jiang Ranran opened her mouth and wanted to continue persuading, but was stopped by Gu Sinan.
"Mom, let's respect Qiao Jiabao. This is his own choice." Gu Sinan has always been rational, and Jiang Ranran always considers his words seriously. Hearing him say this, Jiang Ranran swallowed back what she wanted to say.
Jiang Ranran looked at Qiao Jiabao tenderly and gave up trying to persuade him. "Jiabao, what do you think?"
"I plan to donate all my property to the orphanage after my lawyer asks me to notarize it," Qiao Jiabao said with a determined look.
When these words came out, Jiang Ranran and the children were all stunned. They looked at Qiao Jiabao in surprise.
"Jiabao, this is a considerable sum of money, enough for you to live on for the rest of your life. Do you really want to donate so much money to the orphanage?" Jiang Ranran found it unbelievable, and at the same time worried that Qiao Jiabao made the decision on impulse.
With such a huge sum of money, she would rather Qiao Jiabao leave it to herself rather than spend it on the orphanage.
After all, Qiao Jiabao is still young, and he will need a lot of money for study and life in the future. This money can be used for Qiao Jiabao's education in the future.
Qiao Jiabao answered Jiang Ranran almost without thinking, "I've already made up my mind. I'll donate it to the orphanage for those children without parents. They need a lot of money."
"But Jiabao, you have to understand that you will need money in the future. This money can be used for your studies, but if you donate it to an orphanage, it will be a bottomless pit." Jiang Ranran knew how much money the orphanage cost, so she did not approve of Qiao Jiabao's behavior.
Qiao Jiabao clenched his fists lightly. He knew that the amount of money was not small, and he also knew that he was making a major decision, and once he made it, he would never regret it.
But he had really thought it through.
It is far less meaningful to spend the money on an orphanage than to spend it on yourself.
"I've made up my mind, Mom. Don't try to persuade me anymore. I just want to donate it to the orphanage. I want to help you run the orphanage. I don't want to see you working so hard." Qiao Jiabao's words deeply moved Jiang Ranran.
Hearing Qiao Jiabao say this, Jiang Ranran felt warm in her heart.
"But..." Jiang Ranran wanted to say something else.
"Don't say anything, Mom. Just listen to me. I really don't regret it. I've thought it through." There was a hint of pleading in Qiao Jiabao's eyes, and they were full of sincerity.
Seeing this, Jiang Ranran had no choice but to relent and said, "Okay, I'll agree to it for now, but I'll give you time to think about it. You can always regret it before donating."
In the end, Jiang Ranran gave Qiao Jiabao a chance to change his mind instead of agreeing to him right away.
Qiao Jiabao didn't want to argue any more, so he simply nodded and agreed to Jiang Ranran.
The day of notarization soon arrived, and the lawyer called Qiao Jiabao again.
Qiao Jiabao came to the agreed place alone, which was a coffee shop. Jiang Ranran and Gu Tingchen wanted to accompany him, but Qiao Jiabao did not agree. He wanted to face it alone and did not want Jiang Ranran and Gu Tingchen to see his complicated emotions.
Qiao Jiabao was neither very happy nor very sad about taking over Cen Juan's property.
In short, Qiao Jiabao was in such a complicated mood that he wanted to find a place to hide.
He was like a child who had done something wrong, eager to hide his clues and not want anyone to find out.
When he arrived at the coffee shop, Qiao Jiabao met the lawyer who contacted him, a thin middle-aged man.
He was wearing a very professional suit and had a thick stack of documents in front of him, which were probably the documents that needed to be notarized.
Upon seeing Qiao Jiabao, the lawyer hurriedly stood up and said to him, "Hello, Master Qiao."
"Just call me Qiao Jiabao from now on. I'm no longer the young master of the Qiao family." Qiao Jiabao said coldly.
Hearing him say that, the lawyer quickly changed his address, "Okay, Jiabao."
"I have brought all the notarized documents this time. Let's have a cup of coffee and take a break, and then rush to these two properties immediately, okay?" The lawyer suggested to Qiao Jiabao very professionally.
Qiao Jiabao nodded without any objection.
They had a cup of coffee and then set off to the property's location.
The two properties were indeed as the lawyer had said before, both located in luxurious locations and were luxurious villas. One of the villas was the one where Qiao Jiabao had lived before, the one he had lived in when he was beaten on the back by Cen Juan.
Coming to this place again, Qiao Jiabao couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts. In the hall, there were still traces of him being beaten.
"Jiabao, these two properties are yours now. Here are the property certificates for you." The lawyer said respectfully to Qiao Jiabao.
Qiao Jiabao took the property certificate, but his eyes seemed a little dull. This was the last thing Cen Juan left for him.
When I opened the property certificate, Qiao Jiabao's name was clearly written on it.
"Are these all mine?" Qiao Jiabao asked in disbelief.
The lawyer nodded and said, "Yes, these procedures are fair and valid. These things are now yours to do with as you please."
"Okay, please help me draft the materials and donate them to the orphanage in this city." Qiao Jiabao answered without hesitation.
