Due to Xia Xibei’s tough attitude, what followed was quite peaceful, and the patriarch even gave her a house.

Their Qi family had been developing for so many years, it was only normal for them to have houses in the imperial capital.

Other people struggling for a lifetime could not buy a house, yet they had a lot of houses on hand and could give them out.

However, Xia Xibei’s expression was very calm.

Although she did not have a house in the imperial capital, she had the means and funds to buy one if she wanted to.

The old man also regarded her highly, seeing she was so calm.

This was how their Qi family’s children and grandchildren should look!

As for Qiao Yanjue, the old man didn’t say anything.

In his opinion, Xia Xibei was still young and immature in terms of relationships.

If they were forced to break up, it would make her rebel.

When she grew up and saw the difference between the Qi family and the Qiao family, she would naturally know that the two were not compatible.

When the time came, they would naturally break up, without the need for others to stir up trouble on the sidelines.

After the conversation ended, Xia Xibei wanted to take Qiao Yanjue and go home.

......

Seeing that they were leaving, Qi Zhiqiang immediately got anxious.

“Aren’t you staying?”

“No,” Xia Xibei shook her head, “I have a place to stay outside.”

“Where are you living? Can it be better than home?”

Qi Zhiqiang frowned and looked at Qiao Yanjue again.

“She’s staying at my house,” Qiao Yanjue finally spoke up, his eyes calm, steady, and strong.

When these words came out, Qi Zhiqiang’s face darkened, “Staying at your house?”

How old was Xia Xibei and how dare she move into Qiao Yanjue’s house?! How could she not take herself seriously?!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

What kind of girl offered herself like this?!

Sensing Qi Zhiqiang’s meaning, Xia Xibei swept him a glance, “I live in his house quite well, you do not need to worry.”

“But…”

Qi Zhiqiang was anxious.

It was too early for Xia Xibei to have a boyfriend, and she was living in the man’s home?! How embarrassing!

Xia Xibei interrupted him, “I have my ideas of what’s appropriate, you do not have to worry.”

Although she was only 18-years-old physically, her mental age was already old enough.

In her opinion, as long as she was physically and mentally mature enough to take responsibility for her own decisions, she could do anything.

Therefore, she did not care.

After being looked at by Xia Xibei, Qi Zhiqiang’s mouth opened and all of his intended words could only be swallowed back.

“Actually, we have already prepared a room for you, and the room is very nice,” Ling Xiao walked over and said to Xia Xibei.

After finding out that Xia Xibei was Qi Zhiqiang’s daughter, Ling Xiao stepped in to help.

It couldn’t be helped that Xia Xibei was indeed Qi Zhiqiang’s daughter, but an illegitimate one.

Qi Zhiqiang’s wife was very resistant to this matter and not willing to acknowledge Xia Xibei’s identity at all, so she was not even present today.

In this case, she would not come forward to arrange these things.

Therefore, Ling Xiao had to take the lead.

Although Xia Xibei was an illegitimate daughter, something Ling Xiao usually hated, Xia Xibei was her life-saver, so the situation was different.

Unexpectedly, Xia Xibei did not stay, but instead wanted to go back with Qiao Yanjue.

Ling Xiao’s feelings were very complicated. A girl going to live with a man…

Seeing Ling Xiao speak up, Qi Xin came over, took her arm and smiled, “Mom, don’t worry, she must have a sense of proportion.”

Xia Xibei smiled at Qi Xin, “Yes, I have my own way.”

Xia Xibei’s smile made Qi Xin feel a little ominous for some reason.
