âIt hasnât been decided yet, but itâs definitely not a problem. Donât tell your grandmother yet, wait until Iâve decided.â Tang Yaozong had a plan in mind. He felt that Chu Qiao would definitely not reject him.
He had a car and a house, and he wasnât bad looking. He even doted on his wife. There were many girls outside who wanted to marry him, but he didnât like any of them.
âWhat does my future aunt do? Let me take a look.â Tang Weiguo was interested. He wanted to know how beautiful this beauty, who had been single for 28 years, was?
How could she be more beautiful than his outstanding beauty?
âIâll introduce you to each other in the future. Donât come to my place. Itâs not a place for you kids to come.â
Tang Yaozong pushed him impatiently. Although his dance hall was a formal singing and dancing hall, it was also very messy. He did not want his nephew to learn to be bad.
âIâll leave if you give me the videotape!â
Tang Weiguoâs coaxing made Tang Yaozong impatient. He went to his room and randomly found a few videos of Jackie Chan and gave them to him. He hid the other rare editions tightly and couldnât let his nephew see them.
âIâve seen all of these. I want to see whatâs in there.â Tang Weiguo pointed at the small cabinet. He knew that his uncle would hide the good things in there.
âGet lost!â
Tang Yaozong kicked his nephew out and took out the treasure in the small cabinet. He locked it into the safe. Inside was the daily flow of the dance hall. He could earn tens of thousands of dollars in a night, it was not safe not to put the safe in.
These videotapes had to be locked up too. Otherwise, that sly nephew of his would definitely come and steal them.
Outside the door, Tang Weiguo touched his nose regretfully. He took the videotape of brother Jackie Chan and left in a hurry. He actually wanted to take some color videotapes to watch. He was already eighteen years old and had a girl he liked. So what if he wanted to watch some color?
In the foreign countries, he could date at sixteen years old. He was still a virgin, which meant that his self-control was quite strong. He wouldnât be affected even if he watched some color videos. He just wanted to learn some skills.
Chu Qiao had already gone home. He Jihong was watching TV in the living room. Seeing her sullen face and ignoring her, Chu Qiao didnât mind. He ran to Chu Pengâs room and rummaged through the cabinets. Chu Peng wasnât in the room, and he only came back after taking a nap in the afternoon, he usually went to the library to read and would only come back after dinner.
When Xu Bilian wasnât married, she lived in the same room as Chu Peng, separated in half by a curtain. After she got married, she left a lot of things at home. She had the most clothes, and many of them were still seventy to eighty percent new, Chu Qiao casually rummaged through and found a white dress, and then a light green one. They were all quite new, but a little fat. He just needed to modify the waist.
âWhat are you doing flipping through Bilianâs clothes?âHe Jihong rebuked unhappily.
âI donât have any clothes to wear.â
Chu Qiao replied without beating around the bush. He lifted the cloth cover of the sewing machine and compared the dress to his own body. He had a rough idea of what was going on. It was easy to modify the dress, and it would be completed in no time.
âArenât you wearing clothes? Put the dress back!âHe Jihong raised her voice, a fire burning in her heart. She felt that her stepdaughter was a little out of control. Recently, she was getting bolder and bolder. was she going to rebel.
âIâm wearing a beggarâs uniform. Aunt He, if you donât make me new clothes, I can only change Xu Bilianâs old clothes. If that doesnât work, letâs go find director Bi and reason with her.â
Chu Qiao did not have the patience to waste his breath on her, so he directly brought out the female director. This director Bi had always been at odds with He Jihong.
As expected, when he heard director Bi, he Jihongâs face turned even uglier. However, she was worried that Chu Qiao would really go and complain to that Bi, so she gritted her teeth, she shouted into the house, âChu Yuanzhi, youâre in charge of your daughter. I canât even say anything now, and you still want to sue me? Iâve worked hard for five years to raise an ingrate!â
âWhat now?â
Chu Yuanzhi had a headache. It had just ended in the morning, and it started again in the afternoon. There was no end to this day. Sigh!
âAunt He, why didnât you say that Iâve worked hard in this house for five years, and I havenât received a single salary? You have to pay at least twenty yuan a month to hire a nanny, including food and accommodation. Iâve been working in this house for five years for nothing and havenât taken a single cent. Iâm not an ungrateful wretch. If you keep saying that, Iâll go find director Bi right now to reason with you!â
Chu Qiao was furious when he heard the words âUngrateful wretchâ. He couldnât be bothered to feign civility with this woman anymore. The weaker she was, the more outrageous this woman would be. He simply couldnât bear it anymore and broke up with her.
Moreover, her household registration was in the countryside, under her motherâs account. It wasnât in he Jihongâs hands. This woman couldnât control her, so she had nothing to be afraid of. However, she still had to seize the time to move her household registration, she didnât want to let Xu Bilian get away with that house.
In this life, she wouldnât give in to Xu Bilian at all!
He Jihongâs eyes were wide open. She couldnât believe her ears. Was this the submissive Chu Qiao?
Did she eat a bearâs heart or a leopardâs guts?
She actually dared to talk back to her?
âQiaoqiao, why are you talking to your aunt he? Hurry up and apologize to Aunt He!â Chu Yuanzhi had a terrible headache. Previously, he had applied a thick layer of cooling oil, which made him feel slightly better. Now, it was starting to hurt like a drill in his heart.
Chu Qiao secretly sneered. As her father, she was the best at making peace. No matter what happened, she didnât ask for the reason and just talked about her first. In the past, she was honest and cowardly, and she deserved to be trampled on by this family. In the future, she could forget about it.
âI canât take It!â
He Jihong laughed coldly. She still hadnât realized the change in Chu Qiaoâs nature. She thought that it was only because she was bullied by her daughter, Bilian, a few days ago. She felt some resentment in her heart. It had happened before, she only needed to scold him a little, and it would be suppressed. This time, it was a little more serious, but she didnât take it to heart. It was just an honest dough that couldnât be flipped out of her palm. There was nothing to be afraid of.
After she finished mocking them, she waited for Chu Yuanzhi to apologize. It was how it was in the past.
âWhy did you ask me to apologize? Did I say something wrong? Didnât I work for you for the past five years? Did you give me a penny of your salary? You didnât even give me a new piece of clothing to make, and you had the nerve to let me wear the clothes Iâm wearing out the door? Do you know what people call me when I go out, Dad?â
Chu Qiao burst out in anger and yelled at Chu Yuanzhi. She blamed he jihong, but she hated Chu Yuanzhi even more, this useless biological father.
Chu Yuanzhi was a little confused. In his impression, his daughter had always been obedient, just like a puppet. What happened today?
She had already lost her temper twice?
âEveryone calls me auntie. Look at my clothes. Auntie Wang is wearing better clothes than me. Dad, Iâm your biological daughter. Donât you earn a salary? Do you think your face will shine when Iâm wearing such shabby clothes? Iâm only changing two old clothes, and you guys are so unwilling. Youâre even forcing me to marry a widower as your stepmother. Auntie he isnât my biological mother, so I donât blame her. Dad, youâre my biological father. Arenât you afraid that Grandpa will come to look for you at night?â
Chu Qiao gritted his teeth and questioned him, even mentioning Grandpa..
