450. Chapter 450: Where Is It Right to Be So Calculating With Me?

When Qiao Lihua arrived, Qiao Sheng was having breakfast in the pavilion.

"Second sister, you're here, sit quickly."

Qiao Sheng invited Qiao Lihua to sit down and then asked whether she had eaten.

He learned that she had already eaten.

Qiao Sheng still urged her to have a bit more.

Qiao Lihua looked at her elder sister; even a simple breakfast was so lavish, and she couldn't help feeling surprised—Is this the life of the rich?

In the morning they ate not only buns, mantou, and dumplings, but also bird's nest and shark fin.

Perhaps he noticed Qiao Lihua's surprise.

Qiao Sheng whispered to Qiao Lihua that he was pregnant.

Qiao Lihua's eyes widened in surprise: "Elder sister, really?"

"Really."

Qiao Sheng nodded and said, "I originally planned to tell you all after a few days."

He listened as she finished.

Qiao Lihua spoke up: "If the month is later, it's indeed better. Have mother and the others found out? If they haven't, you can wait a few days before telling them."

Qiao Sheng shook his head: "They still don't know."

He ate a little.

Qiao Lihua wanted to speak but stopped.

Qiao Sheng looked straight at her and said, "Second sister, we are blood sisters; you can speak directly whatever you have."

"I..."

Qiao Lihua opened her mouth and still said it.

Just as her words fell.

Qiao Sheng looked at her and asked, "Second sister, do you want me to help Ji Xue?"

Upon hearing that.

Qiao Lihua replied honestly, "Elder sister, I wasn't asking you to help her; I respect your decision."

The implication.

Whether Qiao Sheng was willing to help or not,

she wouldn't say anything.

She had no opinion.

Qiao Sheng pursed his lips and said, "Second sister, if you put it that way, then I definitely won't help Ji Xue. As for her, you know what kind of person she is; even if I helped her, she might not be grateful."

"Hmm."

Qiao Lihua said nothing further.

She returned to the shop, and soon after sent someone back to convey the matter to Ji Xue.

When Ji Xue found out, she was beyond angry; she grabbed things from her room and smashed them on the floor: "Bastard, bastard, I knew she wouldn't help me."

Tian Cuifen happened to hear as she arrived.

She strode into the room and said, "What are you doing, you! We originally had little connection with Qiao Sheng; it's understandable that she doesn't help. She doesn't owe us."

"Am I talking about her? I'm talking about the sister-in-law!"

Ji Xue replied to Tian Cuifen.

Tian Cuifen sighed and said, "Why don't you think about how you used to treat your sister-in-law before?"

Ji Xue's expression froze.

After a while.

Ji Xue strained her neck and said, "I used to be unkind to Qiao Lihua, I didn't like her, but after that I didn't do anything else. She is my sister-in-law; why should she hold a grudge against me?"

She couldn't be persuaded.

Tian Cuifen simply gave up speaking.

"Enough, you, hurry back to your husband's family! Your son is still so young; it's been so long since you've seen him, he probably doesn't even know how to cry properly!"

"Indeed."

Her son probably doesn't know how to cry now.

Thinking of her own son's current situation,

Ji Xue felt distressed.

She couldn't worry about that any longer and decided to go directly to find Qiao Sheng.

Feng An Nuan, upon learning of this, muttered "fool" under his breath, then ordered someone to stop her.

Ji Xue was dragged away by them.

She struggled while shouting, "What are you doing, you? You made me do that, and now you won't let me go find…"

One of the men pulling her could barely stand her any longer.

"Shut up, you stinky woman; if you keep shouting, do you believe we'll slaughter you!"

Ji Xue fell silent instantly.

They dragged her to an empty place.

The man just warned, "My master said, if you really want to act directly, you bear the consequences yourself. If you dare involve her, we'll kill your entire family!"
