Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 426 - Chapter 426 Chapter 426 Blinded_1

Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Blinded_1 Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Blinded_1 Nan Fei joked, “And then what? Why didn’t you try to scare her off with a butcher knife?”

“Tch! She doesn’t want to hang out with me, well, I don’t need her company either!”

Lu Qing Tian made a disdainful face before turning serious, “Brother Bei Jiang has always been the man we kids in the village most admire. Everyone loves to play with Brother Bei Jiang, and because He Jinlan is his sister, people try to please her, too.”

“However…”

Lu Qing Tian paused, seeming to feel guilty about gossiping behind someone’s back, but she thought she shouldn’t hide this from her best friend, so she continued: “Back then, He Jinlan always declared herself as Brother Bei Jiang’s adopted daughter. That’s why I know that she likes Brother Bei Jiang. You cannot treat her as your little sister-in-law or something, she is your love rival.”

The pen that Nanfei was holding in her hand slipped and rolled onto the table. She just lay there listlessly, startling Lu Qing Tian.

“Nan Fei, are you okay?”

“I’m fine.” She just felt she was foolish, simple, and far too self-assured.

In her previous life, all she did was trust He Jinlan, missing the chance to make real friends. What vexed her even more was that she was oblivious to what even outsiders knew.

Just how naive could she be!

“Nan Fei, Nan Fei, Aunt Yuan is here!” Lu Qing Tian looked up and saw Yuan Xueshan standing at the classroom door. The teacher leading the morning reading got up and left after seeing her. Soon after, Qiao Jingxuan was called outside too.

Hearing this, Nan Fei looked up in time to see Qiao Jingxuan turn back to look at her as he exited the room.

Their gazes met in mid-air, Qiao Jingxuan arrogantly lifted his head and offered her a deep, enigmatic smile.

Nan Fei was taken aback, a foreboding thought surging in her mind.

She lost interest in reading and kept a vigilant eye on what was happening outside.

In the corridor outside the classroom, the teacher called Qiao Jingxuan out and then went back in, leaving Yuan Xueshan alone with Qiao Jingxuan.

“You’re Qiao Jingxuan, right?” Yuan Xueshan couldn’t reconcile the handsome youth in front of her with the cruel and ruthless character he was rumored to possess.

She felt she had to confront him, or else she wouldn’t sleep well.

Especially about her son.

If Jiang Nanfei had indeed cuckolded her son, she was prepared to fight to the death for her son’s honor.

“That’s right, and you are?” Qiao Jingxuan had hit He Jinlan the day before and was expecting this. He indeed looked down on her, but the woman had her ways.

Otherwise, given her illegitimate status, how could she have persuaded his parents to allow her to marry him instead of He Shasha?

“Tell me the truth.”

Once confirmed that the young man before her was Qiao Jingxuan, Yuan Xueshan dropped all pretense, asking directly: “Did you cause Jin Lan’s injuries yesterday?”

This was what he and He Jinlan agreed on yesterday. He was willing to do anything to get Jiang Nanfei now.

“Yes, I did hit her.”

Yuan Xueshan gasped with a cold smile, glaring at Qiao Jingxuan in anger, “How could you be so cruel? What right do you have to hit her?”

“I can hit whoever I want. What’s it to you?”

“You… I’ll teach you a lesson…” Yuan Xueshan tried to hit Qiao Jingxuan, but he grasped her wrist before she could land a strike.

“Auntie, I warn you to mind your own business. This is between me and He Jinlan.” Qiao Jingxuan’s eyes were full of disdain. He was truly perplexed at how the intelligent, wise school principal could have married such a vulgar woman.

Was he blind?

If it were not for the fact that he had to continue studying here, he would have called her ‘old woman’ instead of ‘auntie’.
