Chapter 177: You Lunatic!
Although Qiao Chen had already said it, Qiao Anxin still did not believe that Qiao Mianmian was already married to that man.
How was it possible.
How could such a classy man pick someone like Qiao Mianmian as a wife?
The wealthy were very particular about finding a good match.
She was able to be with Su Ze because of the success in her career. Even as the Qiao family wasnât rich enough, she was earning a pretty good sum on her own.
But Qiao Mianmian?
Besides her slightly better looks, she was nothing but a poor woman. The most she was worthy of was to be someoneâs mistress for them to play around with.
She was no more than a mistress to that outstanding man!
She was being pampered now, but sheâd be dumped in no time.
âYouâre talking crap!â Qiao Anxin flew into a rage upon hearing her words. âSister isnât that sort of person. Qiao Anxin, donât think everyoneâs as shameless as you are.
âGet out, get out now!
âIf you dare mention another bad word about my sister, donât blame me for being mean.â Qiao Chen raised a fist.
Qiao Anxin was very upset.
She didnât expect Qiao Chen to be this protective of Qiao Mianmian.
She swallowed her anger and continued feigning gentleness.
After taking a deep breath, she went on trying to convince him. âChen Chen, Iâm speaking the truth. Sister has been...â
âScram!â Qiao Chen picked up a glass from his bedside cabinet and hurled it towards her. âScram now!â
Qiao Anxin saw a glass coming her way before she was done talking.
She quickly evaded it.
The glass landed on the floor and water spilled all over.
âQiao Chen, are you mad!â Qiao Anxin finally erupted.
âYouâre not leaving?â Qiao Chen grabbed a vase.
âY-You lunatic!â Qiao Anxin hurriedly dashed for the door as she saw that he might aim the vase at her.
She stopped at the door and said indignantly, âChen Chen, everything I said is true. Sister knows you wouldnât be able to accept it, so she lied about the marriage. Your surgery cost a bomb, and she was unwilling to receive help from me and Brother Ah Ze. Honestly, she did it all for you, but...â
She sighed again. âThis isnât anything glamorous. Iâve said my piece, itâs up to you to believe it.â
With that, Qiao Anxin left the ward.
...
Qiao Mianmian woke up and found herself in a foreign place.
She walked out of the lounge and saw Mo Yesi sitting at his work desk.
His sleeves had been rolled up his forearms and the first two buttons of his black shirt had been undone, revealing his chest.
The way he hung his head low made his jawline appear exceedingly attractive.
The office was quiet, and she could hear the occasional flipping of papers as he looked through a document.
The curtains were drawn halfway, and light poured onto the ash-colored ground with shadows of the curtainsâ patterns.
They said that men looked the most alluring when they were serious.
Qiao Mianmian couldnât agree more at this point in time.
Mo Yesi looked extremely captivating when he was concentrating on his work.
Even without speaking, even without any expression, he exuded a thick air of asceticism.
