Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Teacher Qiao Now Seems Quite the Virtuous Wife and Good Mother

Shen Dang moved a few steps and said indifferently, "It’s fine to go to the office later."

Qiao Xi frowned. "Tsk, you as the boss are setting a bad example for the company culture."

Shen Dang smiled slowly and arrogantly. "I am the boss, who dares to manage me?"

Qiao Xi: "..."

You’re the boss, you think you’re so great.

Shen Dang sat down opposite Qiao Xi.

He looked at her and asked, "How’s the breakfast today?"

Qiao Xi glanced up at Shen Dang. "Of course, it’s up to Chef Shen’s standard."

Praised, Shen Dang laughed leisurely. "So, letting me stay here is a good deal for you. Take your time to think about it."

Qiao Xi ignored him and urged, "Hurry to the office after breakfast."

After eating breakfast, Shen Dang wanted to clean up the dishes, but Qiao Xi stopped him. "I’ll clean up; you go to work."

Shen Dang’s gaze deepened as he looked at her.

His gaze was puzzling.

Qiao Xi looked back at him, somewhat blankly. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Shen Dang propped up his chin and lazy-smiled. "Teacher Qiao is quite the good wife and mother now."

It gave him the impulse to marry her right away.

But in fact, he hadn’t even won her over yet.

Now that’s a sad story.

Qiao Xi opened her mouth to say something, but Shen Dang’s phone suddenly rang.

The phone was in the living room. Shen Dang picked it up; it was a call from the company.

Shen Dang told Qiao Xi, "I’ll be busy first," then left her house while talking on the phone.

Qiao Xi slowly washed the dishes when suddenly she heard the doorbell again.

Thinking Shen Dang must have forgotten something, she walked to the door and opened it, her voice a mixture of coyness and complaint, "Why are you back..."

She abruptly stopped before finishing her sentence.

Qiao Xi’s face darkened, attempting to close the door, but it was blocked by the person outside.

With a frosty face, Qiao Xi’s voice grew heavy, "What are you doing here?"

Qiao Zhenbin barged into her home, his cold gaze scanning the surroundings before focusing back on Qiao Xi.

"What am I doing here?" Qiao Zhenbin glared at Qiao Xi, with raging anger in his eyes. "You sent Nannan to the hospital, what do you think I’m here for? Are you even human, hurting your sister like that? You’re hurting her, you’re hurting the Qiao Family, don’t you understand? Was I raising you for nothing? Or won’t you be satisfied until you see me bankrupt and unable to die peacefully?"

As Qiao Xi coolly lifted her eyelids, the indifference on her face was stark. "Are you done? If so, get out!"

Qiao Zhenbin, with a dark expression, said, "Come to the hospital with me; you must apologize to Nannan, then find a way to get her back on the show. She can’t be eliminated!"

He was still dreaming of a comeback.

Not only Qiao Nan’s dreams but also Qiao Zhenbin’s were shattered by Qiao Xi.

Possibly, they were the true father and daughter, cold-blooded and heartless in their bones.

Qiao Xi couldn’t help but scoff sarcastically, her voice chilly. "Sending Qiao Nan back to the show, you’re really delusional."

Her smile faded, and a chill rose in her eyes, like a layer of frost. "Apologizing to Qiao Nan is even more impossible, so you better leave now or I’ll call security!"

Qiao Zhenbin clenched his fists, his gaze menacing and terrifying. "Are you coming with me or not?"

Qiao Xi lifted her chin, her cool gaze tracing a proud arc, word by word. "I’ll say it again, I won’t go, you should give up that thought."

A fierce glint flashed in Qiao Zhenbin’s eyes as he raised his hand high and slapped Qiao Xi’s face with a "smack," turning her face to the side.

Her fair skin reddened instantly, her cheek swelling and a trace of blood seeping from her lip.

Qiao Xi’s entire face felt numb.

In fact, she had a chance to dodge, but she didn’t.

Qiao Zhenbin’s hand was also shaking.

The atmosphere grew tense and frosty.

Qiao Xi touched her face, and it really hurt, but it wasn’t as bad as the numbness in her heart.

Lips tight, she looked expressionlessly at Qiao Zhenbin, her voice unnaturally calm and icy. "I didn’t dodge because you are still my father in name, but with that slap today, you’ve completely destroyed what little father-daughter affection we had left. From now on, we have no relationship. I’ll find time to return to the Qiao Family and formally move my name out of the Qiao Family registry."

If possible, she didn’t even want this surname.

But life doesn’t offer that choice.

She wouldn’t rely on such illusory things anymore, the past and the future both had nothing to do with her. Emotions are finite, once gone, they’re gone, never to return.

"You... you unfilial daughter, how can you say such disrespectful words! I won’t let you get away with it today!"

Qiao Zhenbin looked into her bloodthirsty cold eyes, as if provoked by her, his heart panicked, overwhelmed by a manic darkness.

He wanted to teach this daughter a lesson, to show her what a father’s authority was!

But that slap never landed on Qiao Xi’s face.

Qiao Xi watched, stupefied, as a man suddenly appeared.

Shen Dang squinted his cold eyes at Qiao Xi, his expression unreadable. "Can’t you dodge?"

His voice was harsh, and Qiao Xi could tell he was angry.

Qiao Xi lowered her lashes, silently not speaking.

"You... How are you here?"

Qiao Zhenbin’s pupils shrunk; he was afraid of Shen Dang.

Shen Dang, with power and wealth, had easily taken possession of the gigantic Qiao’s. Without status, he had become a laughingstock in Hai City’s upper circles.

He was even less capable of provoking Shen Dang now.

Upon seeing Shen Dang, Qiao Zhenbin felt a mix of fear and dread.

It was a fear emanating from his very bones.

"President Qiao, it seems you haven’t taken my words to heart," Shen Dang said, still with a cold gaze but a hint of a smile on his lips.

Even though it was already summer, Qiao Zhenbin felt a chill as if he had fallen into an icy cellar, his lips quivering.

He knew all too well Shen Dang’s tactics.

"Was it this hand that hit her?"

Shen Dang’s contemptuous look, his lofty disdain, made Qiao Zhenbin feel like ragged trash, unworthy even of being there.

"I, I... What do you want to do?"

Shen Dang clenched his fingers, wishing he could crush Qiao Zhenbin’s bones.

He wouldn’t even let anyone touch her, yet she had been struck by this bastard!

Shen Dang’s eyes were icy, devoid of warmth. "Let’s make things simple, you used that hand to hit her, now use that hand to pay it back."

His smile was chilling; his intimidating presence instilled fear, and Qiao Zhenbin was genuinely scared.

"Xixi..." Qiao Zhenbin’s legs went weak.

Shen Dang, let it go."

Qiao Xi grabbed Shen Dang’s hand and shook her head at him.

Shen Dang’s eyes were still fiercely cold. He scoffed, half mocking, "Qiao Xi, are you really pleading for him?"
