From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 325: A Normal Person Wouldn’t Do This!
Chapter 325: Chapter 325: A Normal Person Wouldn’t Do This!
Li Xia stood beside Mo Shaolin, oblivious as her ice cream melted in her hand.
Mo Shaolin handed a tissue to Li Xia: "Xiaxia, the ice cream is dripping onto your hand."
Li Xia snapped back to reality and noticed.
She took the tissue, and Mo Shaolin took the ice cream, wrapping the bottom with paper.
Li Xia’s hands felt sticky and it annoyed her greatly.
"Brother Shaolin, I’m going to wash my hands."
Li Xia walked into the nearby café to use the restroom.
Mo Shaolin looked at Li Xia’s dispirited appearance with heartache and wished he could take on some of her distress.
His phone rang at that moment, and Mo Shaolin saw the familiar number. It was Huo Siyu calling.
After some thought, Mo Shaolin still chose not to answer.
Li Xia had accepted him, wanting to try dating him. Mo Shaolin steeled his heart to cut ties with Huo Siyu once and for all.
When Mo Shaolin didn’t pick up, the phone rang again.
Mo Shaolin answered the call, and Huo Siyu’s voice came through: "Mo Shaolin, I want to talk to you."
Mo Shaolin’s brow furrowed, determined to end things with Huo Siyu, he decided to be thorough.
With an indifferent voice, Mo Shaolin spoke to Huo Siyu: "What’s there to talk about between us? Huo Siyu, I never liked you. Don’t call me again. Let’s pretend we don’t know each other."
Huo Siyu didn’t expect Mo Shaolin to say this. She really had something important to tell him.
"Mo Shaolin, I..."
"Don’t say anymore, Huo Siyu. Didn’t you hope I wouldn’t bother you? As you wish, stop calling me too, it wouldn’t be good to cause misunderstandings for Xiaxia."
Furious, Huo Siyu hung up the phone and blocked Mo Shaolin.
But what about her issues?
...
Nan Qiao walked into the private room where the whole family was gathered, including all three brothers.
Chen Hesong said with a cheerful smile: "Qiaoqiao is here, take a seat. Manman was just saying, it was her fault for being thoughtless, and she wants to sincerely apologize to you."
Chen Hesong gave a meaningful glance to Chen Man, and Chi Chang also nudged Chen Man. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Chen Man stood up, for the sake of money, she could only bow her head for now.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Man transformed into a girl with a feigned smile: "Qiaoqiao, it was all my fault, I was being petty. Don’t be mad at me, forgive me this time. I definitely won’t target you in the future, I promise to keep my word."
The corners of Nan Qiao’s mouth lifted slightly, she slowly said: "Sister Manman, you’re being too formal. We’re all family, there’s no need for this politeness. I understand, you’ve also been misled by bad people. I don’t blame you."
Nan Qiao’s magnanimity made Chen Hesong and Chi Chang feel that she was not the bad girl described by Chen Man. Isn’t this just wonderful?
Chen Man thought that Nan Qiao, backed by others, would take this opportunity to embarrass her, but she didn’t expect Nan Qiao to respond this way.
Chen Man suddenly felt that her own mindset had been too narrow...
Chen Xinwan took Nan Qiao’s hand and sat down: "Qiaoqiao, the dishes here taste pretty good, try some. If you like anything, I could invite the chef to our home to cook for you."
"Thank you, Mom." Nan Qiao said dutifully.
Chen Man sat to the side, feeling bitter inside.
Chen Hesong brought a large gift box and placed it in front of Nan Qiao: "Qiaoqiao, this is a greeting gift from your uncle. Since I knew you were coming back, I’ve been thinking about what gift to give you. After much consideration, I decided gold would be best. I had someone make golden jewelry for you, have a look and see if you like it."
Nan Qiao opened the box, and before her lay a crown, necklace, bracelet, and the like.
A conservative estimate would value it at around seven hundred thousand yuan.
"Thank you, Uncle." Nan Qiao accepted without reservation.
Nan Qiao accepted the gift, and Chen Hesong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If Nan Qiao was appeased, Bai Jingting surely wouldn’t call off the cooperation, right?
Chen Hesong took the initiative to toast to Bai Zhenyang again, constantly livening up the atmosphere.
Everyone was quite satisfied with the meal.
...
After the meal, Chen Hesong also invited Nan Qiao to go sing karaoke, but Nan Qiao declined.
Before Nan Qiao could decline, Hou Ze’s phone call came through.
Nan Qiao walked aside to answer the call, her expression growing increasingly grim.
"I’m on my way now."
Nan Qiao said to Chen Hesong, "Uncle, I’m sorry, but there’s something I need to take care of."
"Qiaoqiao, if you have things to handle, go ahead, we can get together another time."
Nan Qiao then said to the family, "A friend encountered a bit of trouble, I’m going to check on them."
Nan Qiao ran out in a hurry, hailed a taxi, and took off.
Chen Xinwan was very worried, fearing that Nan Qiao had run into some trouble.
In front of Chen Hesong, Chen Xinwan didn’t show anything; she didn’t want to go out, just wanted to go home, looking for a chance to ask Qiaoqiao if she needed any help.
...
Nan Qiao arrived at Huo Siyu’s home, entered the password, and walked in.
Hou Ze and Huo Siyu were sitting in the living room, Huo Siyu with a vacant look in her eyes; neither were speaking.
"Siyu, what’s the matter? Did that bastard Mo Shaolin bully you?"
Huo Siyu raised her head, showing a smile that looked uglier than crying.
"Qiaoqiao, I’m fine. I just can’t remember past events, and I soaked in the water trying to recall them. Hou Ze arrived in time, afraid I was doing something foolish."
Hou Ze was at a loss for words, his intended speech turned into a sigh.
"Is it that scumbag Mo Shaolin’s doing? Siyu, tell me, and I’ll get justice for you!" Nan Qiao was seething with anger.
Just mentioning Mo Shaolin made Nan Qiao’s rage shoot through the roof.
Seeing Huo Siyu in distress, Hou Ze’s mood became heavy too.
Hou Ze said angrily, "Siyu, just one word from you, and I’ll bring Mo Shaolin’s head here!"
Huo Siyu forced a smile and said to both of them, "Don’t worry about me, I’m fine, and it’s not because of Mo Shaolin. I have nothing to do with him anymore, I’ve blocked all his contact information, and there won’t be any involvement with him in the future."
"Even if you’ve blocked him, it doesn’t erase the fact that he hurt you," Nan Qiao said angrily.
Thinking of Mo Shaolin always fueled Nan Qiao’s anger.
How could Mo Shaolin treat Siyu as Li Xia’s substitute when she’s an amnesiac? No normal person could do such a thing!
Hou Ze, clenching his fists, said with righteous indignation, "Siyu, if he has bullied you, I must help you get revenge. Such a scumbag doesn’t deserve to live."
Huo Siyu advised them, "Thanks for coming to see me, I’m really fine. There’s nothing between me and Mo Shaolin anymore, so you don’t have to trouble yourselves with him. In my eyes, Mo Shaolin is just like a stranger."
With Huo Siyu saying that, Nan Qiao and Hou Ze had no more reason to continue speaking ill of Mo Shaolin.
A person like Mo Shaolin wasn’t even worth their discussion.
Hou Ze said, "Boss, you stay with Siyu, I’ll make something for Siyu to eat."
Hou Ze stood up; the dishes he had ordered had just arrived.
While Hou Ze was cooking in the kitchen, Nan Qiao kept Huo Siyu company.
"Siyu, let’s go out and have fun tomorrow. I know there are many fun places in Jing City, I’ll accompany you to clear your mind."
Huo Siyu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Qiaoqiao."
"No problem, we’ll all be there for you, we’re family after all."
Huo Siyu felt warmth in her heart, deeply grateful for Nan Qiao’s support.
