Chapter 83

Xia Xia no longer held him, her father, in her heart.

Before, as long as he put on a stern face, she would admit her mistakes and try to please him, but now, she seemed to truly not be afraid anymore.

"You..."

Suddenly, the door behind them was pushed open.

Qiao Muting walked out.

He looked at Lin Guanda with an expressionless face, his gaze sweeping over Lin Guanda's raised hand without a ripple.

Lin Guanda did not react for a moment; hearing a sound behind him, he turned his head to look, and this glance made his expression change slightly.

Qiao?

"Qiao... Qiao!" Lin Miao also turned to look.

Shu Xia's pale, fair face looked toward Qiao Muting with little color.

Qiao Muting frowned slightly.

If he had come out one step later, would Lin Guanda's hand have struck her?

The Lin Family seemed to treat her even worse than he had imagined.

"Is Chairman Lin planning to hit someone?" Zhang Tezhu felt a shock in his heart and immediately spoke up to question him.

It had to be said that Lin Guanda's audacity was too great.

He was about to hit someone right at the entrance of the Qiao Group!

Looking again, Miss Shu's complexion was somewhat pale; had she been frightened?

"I, I didn't mean to hit anyone. She is my other daughter. She did something wrong these past two days, and I was reasoning with her. I've made a fool of myself in front of Qiao." Lin Guanda immediately defended himself with a stiff expression.

After speaking, he felt it was somewhat inappropriate.

If...

If the benefactor Xia Xia found was Zhang Tezhu, perhaps it would be very useful for him.

After all, Zhang Tezhu was a person trusted by Qiao.

Thinking that one daughter had become Zhang Tezhu's woman and the other had become Qiao's woman, wouldn't their Lin Family be able to walk sideways in Jing City from now on?

"Yes, my father just wanted to discuss some matters with my sister. I don't know why she had to talk back to her elder. Qiao, please don't misunderstand." Lin Miao hurriedly defended Lin Guanda.

She suddenly discovered that Shu Xia seemed to have become even more beautiful recently; her own expensive designer professional attire did not gain the upper hand against Shu Xia's jeans and white T-shirt.

She stood sideways, hoping to block Shu Xia slightly so that she could be the first one to stun Qiao Muting.

Qiao Muting did not look at the two of them, but looked straight at Shu Xia, "Did they hit you?"

After all, she was his wife now; if Lin Guanda hit her, it was no different from hitting him.

"They didn't get the chance to hit me yet." Shu Xia was somewhat stunned; was he worried about her?

Qiao Muting's pupils were terrifyingly deep, and he gave a cold grunt of acknowledgment.

"Qiao, she is my daughter, how could I possibly hit her? I came to the Qiao Group today because I wanted to talk to Qiao. I hope Qiao can give me a few minutes of his time." Lin Guanda seized the opportunity and hurriedly spoke.

He secretly glanced at Zhang Tezhu again; it seemed that Zhang Tezhu could speak up in front of Qiao.

Otherwise, Qiao would not have suddenly stepped in for Shu Xia.

It must be because he knew Xia Xia was Zhang Tezhu's woman.

Compared to Fu Chenyan, Zhang Tezhu was more useful; as a businessman, he quickly weighed the importance of each.
