Chapter 260: Chapter 260 Can’t Sleep? I’ll Come Pick You Up
In the middle of the night, Qiao Xi posted a Weibo.
[Qiao Xi V: In response to certain media and marketing accounts’ reports, here’s an explanation: Cutting ties is true, targeting Qiao Nan is false.
I share the same father but different mothers with Qiao Nan, who, along with her birth mother, Lady Wang, arrived at the Qiao Family later. Much later, I found out that Mr. Qiao’s affair with Lady Wang had led to my mother’s accidental death when she tried to salvage their marriage.
Qiao Nan joined "Dream Chasing Camp," and Mr. Qiao forced me to ensure Qiao Nan’s debut. After Qiao Nan was eliminated, Mr. Qiao furiously slapped me at my home. I cannot forgive the person who hurt my mother, nor can I forgive Mr. Qiao for the continual harm he has caused. Hence, I decided to sever ties with Mr. Qiao, and he has signed the agreement.
As for matters concerning Qiao Nan, please continue to follow "Dream Chasing Camp." Justice lies in the hearts of the people.
Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. Time will eventually be kind to those who are kind. I hope everyone will not overly focus on my family, and I will not respond further to this matter.]
Qiao Xi released the photo of herself after being hit by Qiao Zhenbin, and the evidence of Qiao Zhenbin’s affair during his marriage was Qiao Nan.
Qiao Xi was only a few years older than Qiao Nan, which means that Qiao Zhenbin had had Qiao Nan with another woman while he was still married.
Waiting for Qiao Xi’s clarification were not only Wang Li but also her public relations team. Upon seeing this lengthy blog post, they were all moved to tears.
They never expected that the Goddess of Divine Beauty would have such a tragic private life.
Qiao Xi’s fans went crazy when they saw this; they felt so sorry for their idol!
Qiao Nan’s Weibo was still active. While comforting Qiao Xi, the fans went to Qiao Nan’s Weibo to vent their anger.
In the middle of the night, there were still plenty of people online watching the drama unfold.
The PR team also took this moment to strongly shift the public’s perception in favor of Qiao Xi.
Qiao Nan was happily waiting for Qiao Xi to be ousted from the entertainment industry, but she was dumbfounded when she saw Qiao Xi’s Weibo.
She couldn’t believe it and directly ran to confront Qiao Zhenbin: "Dad, you and mom were in a normal relationship, right? You didn’t have an affair; my mom isn’t a mistress, and I’m not the daughter of a mistress!"
Qiao Zhenbin was drinking in the middle of the night, his eyes red as he yelled, "Don’t talk to me about that bitch, your mom!"
Qiao Nan was startled by Qiao Zhenbin’s fierce appearance but still mustered the courage to press on: "Dad, tell me none of this is true!"
Qiao Zhenbin laughed maniacally: "It’s true, your mom was a mistress. I regret it so much now, to have forsaken my original wife for a woman like your mom! Without your mom, I wouldn’t have ended up like this!"
He could have had a happy family, a beautiful and gentle wife, and an unbeatable pretty and adorable daughter.
But everything changed after he met Wang Wen.
Qiao Zhenbin felt it was all retribution.
He had betrayed that woman, and now he suffered the betrayal of another!
Qiao Zhenbin roared at Qiao Nan: "Get out! I don’t want to see you right now! Go away with your mother!"
Qiao Nan held back her tears, but they slipped from her eyes regardless. She bit her lip tightly and after a few seconds, ran out of the Qiao Family home, crying.
"Boom!"
On the oppressively hot night, a loud thunderclap suddenly rang through the sky.
"Squeak—"
On a rarely-traveled road, a sapphire blue car suddenly stopped in front of Qiao Nan.
Exhausted, Qiao Nan fell to the ground.
The car door opened, and a man stepped out and walked towards Qiao Nan, step by step.
"Do you want to come with me?"
Qiao Nan looked up blankly, her eyes tearful, but still she clearly saw the person in front of her.
...
At this moment, Qiao Xi had not yet fallen asleep. After posting the Weibo, her heart had settled into silence.
The weather thundered without rain. Qiao Xi stood on the balcony outside her room, feeling the wind blowing from afar.
She didn’t mind the wind tousling her hair.
Her phone’s dim light illuminated her face, casting a delicate, flawless pallor.
Her entire life, affection had been scant, and she groped her way through a long and lonely path alone.
Fortunately, she had sensed some rare familial affection from the Shen Family members.
She thought that what she had lost would somehow be compensated in other ways.
But some things were never meant to be hers, they would come and go even if they did appear.
So she didn’t hold much expectation for things that didn’t belong to her.
She had grown up feeling that many things could be faced alone.
But if she encountered or felt sincere emotions, she would be greedy enough not to want to let go.
It is in one’s emotions that greed can arise.
And with time, a longing can develop.
She seemed to want to grasp something.
But at this moment, she was clearly unable to grasp anything.
Even her thoughts were a bit scattered with the wind, as if they would disperse as soon as it blew.
On this intermittent thundering night, the only person Qiao Xi could think of was Shen Dang.
She chuckled to herself.
The phone screen had gone dark. Qiao Xi bowed her head once more, reactivated her phone, and entered Shen Dang’s chat window.
She typed a few characters, tapped her finger, and sent them out.
She froze for a few seconds, considering retracting the message, when she saw the words "The other party is typing" appear above.
Before Shen Dang’s message arrived, the phone rang.
Unsurprisingly, it was a call from Shen Dang.
In the night, this sound was abrupt.
Yet, Qiao Xi felt something spreading in her heart.
Qiao Xi answered the call; another thunderclap boomed through the phone to Shen Dang.
"Why aren’t you sleeping?"
Shen Dang’s deep voice came through, involuntarily intruding into her heart and inexplicably bringing a feeling of comfort in this night.
Humans are, after all, social creatures.
One person needs another.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, calmed her emotions, and said calmly, "I’m about to."
Qiao Xi was a bit impulsive tonight.
Moreover, it was very late. She didn’t expect Shen Dang to be awake as well.
Seems she wasn’t the only one with insomnia.
"You’re lying."
Shen Dang bluntly exposed her lie.
He was awake because someone had sent him a screenshot of Qiao Xi’s Weibo.
Exposing her wounds to the public was clearly not a pleasant matter.
Qiao Xi: "..."
Couldn’t we have a proper conversation?
Shen Dang’s voice was low, tinged with an imperceptible tenderness: "Can’t sleep? I’ll come pick you up."
Qiao Xi laughed, her voice light, "Pick me up for what?"
"To watch the sunrise."
After an eerie silence, Qiao Xi asked, "Don’t you hear the thunder right now?"
Shen Dang’s voice was lazily indifferent: "Does it affect watching the sunrise tomorrow?"
Qiao Xi paused, then retorted: "...What do you think?"
Shen Dang chuckled casually: "I don’t know."
Qiao Xi exhaled: "Hanging up."
She shouldn’t have messaged him.
Shen Dang’s voice suddenly became serious: "Nothing else you want to tell me?"
