Chapter 455

"Don't pry into my affairs, and don't speculate about Shu Xia either; she isn't the kind of woman you think she is. Nothing else? I'm leaving." Qiao Muting said this and was about to leave.

Not until Qiao Muting walked to the door did Jiang Tu react belatedly, "You're really married?"

Qiao Muting turned his head and glanced at Jiang Tu.

He didn't speak, but this glance made Jiang Tu understand that Qiao Muting was not joking.

After the door closed, Jiang Tu called Song Ziqi.

"Qiao Muting is already married, can you consider me now?"

Song Ziqi took a deep breath, "Even you know that Brother Mu Ting is married? Is he letting everyone around him know of Shu Xia's existence now?"

Listening to Song Ziqi's somewhat lonely and heartbroken rhetorical question over the phone, Jiang Tu felt both pain and jealousy in his heart.

"Yes, he told me. I had met Shu Xia before, but I didn't know the two of them were secretly married," Jiang Tu said truthfully.

It took several seconds for Song Ziqi to speak: "Do you think Brother Mu Ting likes her?"

This question left Jiang Tu not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"He seems to care quite a bit about Shu Xia."

But does he like her?

He seemed to have asked Qiao Muting just now, and Qiao Muting didn't answer directly.

Moreover, Qiao Muting said he was married and wouldn't get a divorce, which meant he was very satisfied with Shu Xia.

Song Ziqi was silent for another few seconds, "In another month, I'll return to Jing City once I graduate here."

Upon hearing that Song Ziqi was coming back, Jiang Tu was excited: "Tell me when you're coming back, I'll go to the airport to pick you up!"

Song Ziqi gave a faint "okay" in response.

——

Lin Miao had no choice but to return to the Lin Family.

The house was extremely quiet.

The servants didn't dare to make a sound while working.

Because the hospital matter was exposed, the Third Brother's work had almost completely stopped, and he could only stay at home.

The Second Brother and Father had gone to the company; she had asked Lin Bin about the company's situation, and now it was basically a matter of recovering as much loss as possible, as their family's company was going bankrupt.

The Eldest Brother was also at home and wouldn't go to work until tomorrow.

Now, everyone was hiding in their own rooms.

As for Chen Xiuyue...

She was likely resting alone in her room.

When Lin Miao was about to return to her own room, she passed by Chen Xiuyue's room, paused briefly, and then immediately left.

She didn't want to court disaster.

After quietly returning to her room, she saw Lin Qi in her room.

"Where did you go?" Lin Qi asked.

"I went to see Jiang Ye, hoping she could help persuade Shu Xia for the sake of being my biological mother. But I don't know what Shu Xia said to her; her attitude was very firm," Lin Miao lied without blushing or skipping a beat.

Lin Qi hadn't seen Lin Miao just now and thought Lin Miao would be like Shu Xia, leaving while the Lin Family was in trouble.

It seemed his worry was unnecessary.

How could Miaomiao be that kind of heartless person?

He stood up, walked in front of Lin Miao, hugged her, and in a moment of passion, kissed her.

Lin Miao also responded very proactively.

When the two were kissing intensely, they completely failed to notice that the door was not closed.

Standing before the half-open door was Lin Xu, who looked at this scene in shock.

He had only come to see if Lin Miao had returned, and look what he had seen!

"Brother... Miaomiao, you... you two..."

He was terrified!

Lin Qi and Lin Miao were siblings, and yet they were actually!
