"Yu Qiao, no, Sister Yuan Jiang! I was wrong, I shouldn't have spoken so rudely, please forgive me..." Zhu Jiang cried as she tugged at Yu Qiao's trouser leg, pleading.
Yu Qiao looked down at Zhu Jiang with a cold expression, her crimson lips curving into a slight smile, her voice cold and ethereal: "Crying?"
Zhu Jiang looked up at Yu Qiao with her tear-streaked face, nodding pitifully, "Sister Yuan Jiang, please persuade Mom and Dad not to send me away..."
Yu Qiao let out a cold laugh, her pretty face turning indifferent and sinister: "That won't do."
She tilted her head, looking at the police car speeding towards her in the distance, and curled her lips into a smile: "Someone's here to pick you up."
Zhu Jiang suddenly paused, and the next moment, she saw several men in uniform. Her eyes widened immediately, and she turned to run away.
"Hey! You think you can run away when I'm here?" Fang Jiaojiao put on her sunglasses with a dashing air, struck what she thought was a cool pose, and tripped Zhu Jiang with a swipe of her leg.
Before Zhu Jiang could even react after falling flat on her face, she felt a chill on her wrist as she was handcuffed with cold handcuffs.
"Miss Zhu Jiang, you are suspected of a murder case, as well as group sex and drug use. Please come with us."
Zhu Jiang's mind went blank for a moment.
How could that be?! Impossible! She did that very discreetly! It's impossible for her to be discovered!
She looked at the man in uniform, her red lips moving slightly: "I...I didn't..."
That day, she brought home a male model. The two of them got so excited from taking drugs that they forgot the dosage. She miraculously survived, but the man died in bed...
No! She clearly chopped that man into pieces and dumped him in the wilderness, so how could they still find her?!
"We have sufficient evidence. Please come with us." After saying this, the uniformed man nodded to the others and forcefully led Zhu Jiang away.
Zhu Jiang's eyes were wide open, almost popping out of their sockets, and her whole body was trembling. Suddenly, she struggled to break free, knelt down in front of Jiang Zhujun, and kowtowed violently.
"Mom, save me! I'm your daughter, you can't just stand by and watch me die! I didn't mean to, I didn't know that man would die, it was his suggestion, it has nothing to do with me..."
Jiang Zhujun's temples throbbed, her usually gentle face darkened completely, and she suddenly raised her foot and kicked Zhu Jiang hard in the chest.
His eyes were filled with utter disappointment: "For so many years, I have raised you as my own daughter, but what have you done? Zhu Jiang, if you have made a mistake, you must accept the punishment!"
Jiang Zhujun closed her eyes and refused to look at Zhu Jiang again.
No matter how unwilling or angry Zhu Jiang was, it was all in vain. She went from crying and pleading at the beginning to cursing at the end.
"Mom and Dad, save me! Please don't do this to me, I beg you, I promise I'll change my ways and take good care of you!"
"Pah! You deserve to have your daughter kidnapped and sold into the mountains. With Yu Qiao's vixen-like appearance, she's already been used up by men in the mountains!"
"You'll all die a horrible death! Yu Qiao, why don't you just die!"
"..."
Shen Zhao leaned down slightly, covered Yu Qiao's ears with both hands, his peach blossom eyes shimmering with tears: "Baby, don't listen."
Yu Qiao blinked, thinking that Shen Zhao was dazed, but she still nodded, pretending that she hadn't heard him: "Mmm."
Jiang Zhujun and Yuan Zhiling exchanged a glance, their expressions not good, but when they saw Yu Qiao, their eyes quickly welled up with tears.
This sudden turn of events stunned Qin Jin'er: "At first, I just thought Yuan and Zhu Jiang were a bit petty and cunning, but I never expected that she would actually be involved in these shady deals?!"
“However…” Shen Yujin pondered, “How did they find out about Yuan Jiang?”
Shen Hanting and Shen Hanyang glanced silently at Shen Zhao, who remained expressionless, keeping their eyes down and their minds at ease.
Shen Zhao's lips curled slightly, his eyes darkening with a surging, chilling killing intent.
He will not allow anyone who poses a threat to the baby to exist.
Yu Qiao glanced at Zhu Jiang, who had been taken away, then lowered her eyes, her expression remaining calm and unchanged.
Her fair and slender fingers grasped Shen Zhao's hand.
Shen Zhao lowered his hand from Yu Qiao's, narrowed his peach blossom eyes, bent down, and pressed his lips to her earlobe: "Baby, what's wrong?"
Yu Qiao raised her phoenix eyes slightly, meeting his seemingly drunken yet shimmering eyes, and said thoughtfully, "It's nothing."
Zhu Jiang's matter has come to an end.
Yuan Zhiling looked at Yu Qiao hesitantly, then at Shen Zhao, a loving and gentle expression appearing on his solemn face. He asked cautiously, "Jiang Jiang, are you with Shen Zhao?"
Yu Qiao gripped Shen Zhao's fingers tighter. Feeling awkward in front of so many people, she lowered her head and hid behind Shen Zhao, whispering, "Mmm."
“Our Jiang Jiang has such good taste. Of all the men I’ve met, there aren’t many as handsome as Zhao Bao.” Jiang Zhujun quickly chimed in, trying to say things that Yu Qiao would like to hear and trying to please her.
He winked at Yuan Zhiling.
Yuan Zhiling suddenly realized, and then said, "Ah, right, right, I've watched Shen Zhao grow up. He's always been very virtuous and upright. This is the first time I've seen him in a relationship! I never expected that he would be dating our daughter, hahaha..."
Silence reigned.
Qin Jin'er and Shen Yujin stared at the two of them speechlessly.
Shen Hanting and Shen Hanyang couldn't bear to watch any longer and pretended to be busy playing on their phones.
The air suddenly seemed to freeze.
Jiang Zhujun and Yuan Zhiling scratched their heads awkwardly: "Did I... say something wrong?"
Yu Qiao peeked out from behind Shen Zhao, blinked, and shook her head, saying, "You're right."
"Young Master is the best!"
It's already hers!
Yu Qiao looked at Shen Zhao with sparkling eyes, as if she had found an extremely precious treasure. She covered her lips and chuckled, her ear tips burning red. She said, "We want to get married."
marry? !
Jiang Zhujun was dumbfounded and a little unhappy. Her daughter, whom she had just found, was about to be kidnapped by that brat.
Knowing that she had a rift with Yu Qiao, she didn't dare to stop her and could only stare at Yuan Zhiling with resentment.
Yuan Zhiling, a complete doting father, immediately agreed, grumbling, "Jiang Jiang wants to get married? Then we absolutely have to!"
As they talked, he put his arm around Shen Yujin's shoulder: "Good brother, hurry up and pick a suitable day to hold a wedding for these two kids! In my opinion, you have three sons and I only have one daughter, so let Shen Zhao marry into the family!"
"Marry into the family?!" Shen Yujin was shocked.
"Of course! My daughter has finally come back, so of course she should stay home as much as possible. Now that these two kids are getting married, they have to move in with my family! They'll be staying at my place!"
"..."
The sound faded into the distance.
Yu Qiao shook Shen Zhao's arm, her eyebrows curving into a smile, and called out the name she had never uttered in over a decade: "Dad wants you to marry into his family."
In Luwei Village, those people forced her to change her address to Yu Zhendong as "Dad".
She was beaten half to death but didn't cry out. She didn't know why she had such a strong sense of pride, even though she was so destitute that she had to beg for food.
But she has never uttered the words "Dad" or "Mom".
Yu Qiao gazed at Yuan Zhiling's retreating figure, then looked at Jiang Zhujun, who was still staring at her expectantly, and curled her lips into a smile.
These are her parents.
"Marrying into the family?" Shen Zhao pressed his tongue against his back teeth, his peony-like lips curving into a smile, his fingertips brushing aside a strand of her hair. "That's fine, as long as..."
