Chapter 84: Good-looking, huh?

A bit dark?

Is Qiao Sheng really that dark?

Feng Qingyang really wanted to ask, "Madam, you say that—doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Too bad he only dared to say that in his heart.

Shi Qi regretted coming here; he should have stayed in the army camp leading troops—what was he doing here? Now it's done, leaving probably isn't easy.

The next morning.

Qiao Sheng sent Xiao Shitou to study at Feng Ji Private School; Na Lan Ruo Lan kept her for a few words, then, as they talked, she led her to where Shi Qi practiced martial arts.

Shi Qi would practice martial arts not long after breakfast every day; today was no exception—he was practicing his sword technique.

"It's him."

Qiao Sheng recognized him at a glance.

Na Lan Ruo Lan chuckled and said, "Qiao Sheng, this is my husband's little disciple—good-looking, huh?"

"Good-looking."

Qiao Sheng answered her seriously.

Shi Qi's hand gripping the sword paused.

Na Lan Ruo Lan continued, "You don't have a husband, do you? Look at Xiao Shi Qi—don't let his youth fool you; he's actually twenty-two this year. Not only is he good-looking, his martial arts aren't bad either—look…"

When they looked over.

Shi Qi fell into a patch of grass on the side.

Na Lan Ruo Lan forced a smile and said, "This, this is definitely an accident—definitely a slip on the wet ground, after all it rained a little last night."

Thud.

Having gotten up, Shi Qi fell again.

Qiao Sheng laughed.

Na Lan Ruo Lan sensed an opportunity, she waved at Shi Qi: "Shi Qi, didn't you see Qiao Sheng coming? Come over…"

"Madam Teacher, I'm going to change clothes."

Shi Qi got up and ran, his speed was incredibly fast.

"Hey, this kid!"

Na Lan Ruo Lan figured it out—Shi Qi was doing it on purpose.

Qiao Sheng said on the side, "Grandma, thank you for your kindness, but I'm not planning to look for a husband now—I think having a son is enough. Grandma, thank you for looking after our restaurant's business."

Seeing Qiao Sheng say that.

Na Lan Ruo Lan began to speak.

"You child, who doesn't look for a husband? Once you find one you'll see how good a husband can be. Find someone who dotes on you—you can have him do whatever you want, how great? Speaking of looking after your restaurant business, that's only because your food is tasty; if it weren't, I certainly couldn't keep sending people to buy from you."

Finding someone who dotes on you is not bad.

But what if you end up with someone who annoys you?

Qiao Sheng didn't know why, but she suddenly thought of Shi Lin.

"Grandma, even if I were to look, it would be later. If you have nothing else, I'll head out now—our restaurant still has plenty of work to do."

"Alright, go ahead!"

Na Lan Ruo Lan knew it wasn't happening today, so she didn't keep Qiao Sheng; besides, there would be plenty of chances later.

Zhao Family.

Upon learning that the person they were looking for wasn't a match for Qiao Sheng—and that she had backup—Qiao Jinzhi didn't dare act rashly anymore, and she told Hu Cuicui and the others to hold off on doing anything for now.

"Daughter, we haven't had much money to use lately."

Hu Cuicui said to Qiao Jinzhi.

Upon hearing that, Qiao Jinzhi knew her mother was after money.

She said displeasedly, "Mom, do you really think I'm the young lady of the Zhao Family? I can't even step out the door now—where would I get money to give you? If you're truly broke, go find work."

Without waiting for them to say anything.

She had the maid see the guests out.

Hu Cuicui was furious and cursed in her heart, but she only dared to curse silently—she didn't dare speak it aloud, fearing she'd offend her daughter and never get a penny from her again.
