Qiao Xiang took Ye Linlang's words to heart.
Qiao Xiang walked quietly with Ye Linlang in the alley. The alley was not far away and they only needed to walk a few steps to reach it.
"Linlang, goodbye."
Ye Linlang also said to Qiao Xiang: "You should also go to bed early. Good night."
Ye Linlang returned home and washed up directly. After washing up, she sat down at the desk to review the information about virus A in her mind.
She was a little concerned about Xie Xuning's situation and wanted to call to ask about the details.
She picked up the phone, dialed the number, chatted with Xie Xuning for a while, then ended the call reluctantly and went to rest.
Qiao Xiang did not go straight home, but went to a nearby pub.
In a tavern like this, the customers are generally acquaintances from the neighborhood. Most of the acquaintances are elderly, and young girls like Qiao Xiang are still very rare.
Qiao Xiang sat at the table, eating peanuts and drinking brewed plum wine.
She was in a very low mood, so low that the tavern owner calmly called Qiao Xiang's parents.
"Qiao Xiang?"
Sheng Xing, who was sitting in the corner, walked to the opposite side of Qiao Xiang and sat down gently.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
Qiao Xiang looked at Sheng Xing with drunken eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm Shengxing, a teacher at Xia Tian School. I once saw you take over Xia Tian."
When Qiao Xiang heard this, she said softly, "Really? I have no impression of you. Stay away from me."
Sheng Xing was about to say something when Xia Zhi hurried in and sat down next to Qiao Xiang.
The boss understood and brought Xia Zhi another pot of plum wine.
"Aunt." Sheng Xing greeted Xia Zhi warmly.
Xia Zhi nodded coldly and said, "Can you leave us alone in peace?"
Sheng Xing smiled and said, "Okay."
"Qiao Xiang, you wanted to drink, but why did you come here alone?" Xia Zhiqing took a sip of plum wine, which tasted quite good. "Are you in a bad mood?"
Qiao Xiang covered her chest with her hands and whispered, "Yes, I'm in a bad mood and feel suffocated."
"Because of Qiao Yu and Gong Mio's marriage."
Xia Zhi used affirmative sentences instead of interrogative sentences.
She has lived with Qiao Xiang for some time and is more familiar with the personalities of the two sisters. Qiao Yu is carefree and says whatever she wants, while Qiao Xiang is the kind of person who is meticulous and can hide things easily.
Just like back then, Qiao Xiang had long known that Xia Jing was not her biological mother, but after knowing the truth, she concealed it completely.
Even Qiao Yu had been hiding it. She just didn't have any expectations of Xia Jing, but she never thought of telling other people in the Qiao family about their true life experiences.
"Yes, I'm jealous of Qiao Yu." Qiao Xiang took a sip of wine and said softly, "Mom, do you know? It was Linlang who introduced Gong Mio to me first. If I hadn't refused, Gong Mio would be mine."
Xia Zhi's temples were throbbing.
She didn't know that the two sisters had such a past.
"Qiao Xiang, don't mention this matter again. You know Qiao Yu's character. If she knew about this, she would be angry with Gong Mio."
As soon as Xia Zhi finished speaking, Qiao Xiang burst into tears out of grievance.
"Mom, I'm your daughter too. Why...why don't you think about me? Obviously...I can be so happy too."
Qiao Xiang's crying was fragmented.
Xia Zhi's heart softened when she heard this, but she also knew very well that this matter should not be delayed any longer. She only said: "Qiao Xiang, did Gong Mio like you at that time? If Gong Mio liked you then and now likes Qiao Yu, then I will not agree to their marriage."
