Chapter 282: Chapter 282: Qiao Nan was taken away by one of the old men, and your dad watched with his own eyes
Qiao Nan could not figure out Chu Xiuyun’s attitude at all.
She tentatively asked, "After I leave, can I still come back if I want to?"
Chu Xiuyun snorted ambiguously, "Come back if you want."
His voice was very cold.
Now Qiao Nan was even more unsure about what Chu Xiuyun really meant for her.
To say he liked her, he hadn’t taken any action.
To say he didn’t like her, then why did he bring her here and treat her so well?
Qiao Nan wanted to say more, but Chu Xiuyun hung up the phone directly.
Qiao Nan did not dare to add Chu Xiuyun on WeChat and could only send him a text message, "I’m my father’s only daughter now. I’m going back to check on him, but I’ll come back. Thanks for your care these days, Young Master Chu."
Naturally, Chu Xiuyun did not reply to her.
The next day, Qiao Nan returned to the Qiao Family.
The driver from Chu Xiuyun’s villa dropped her off at the Qiao Family’s house and then left.
Qiao Zhenbin had been waiting at home for Qiao Nan and felt relieved when he saw her return.
What followed was naturally a performance of deep father-daughter affection.
Qiao Nan and Qiao Zhenbin regained their close relationship.
Qiao Nan specifically posted a photo with Qiao Zhenbin on Weibo, expressing their deep father-daughter affection in the text.
Her posting photos was just to show off intentionally.
Even though Qiao Xi had broken ties with the Qiao Family, Qiao Nan knew Qiao Xi still cared.
Qiao Xi had always been envious since childhood because their father treated her better.
After knowing that Qiao Xi was not her biological sister, the relationship between the already distant sisters grew even colder.
With the pampering from her parents, Qiao Nan had spared no effort to secretly bully Qiao Xi.
Qiao Nan’s Weibo account had been managed by her agent before, but now that she had terminated her contract with Le Entertainment, and Chu Xiuyun had compensated her with a breach of contract fee, the account now belonged to her personally.
The fans from before were still there.
Seeing mentions of Qiao Xi in the comments, Qiao Nan hooked a smug smile on her lips through her phone.
See, the fatherly love you couldn’t get is effortlessly obtainable to me.
Qiao Nan felt she had won over Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi had not seen Qiao Nan’s Weibo post, but even if she had, she wouldn’t care.
While Qiao Xi was at home, she did hear about the uproar at the Chu Family.
Ran Jing, accompanied by Shen Hongxuan, stormed into the Chu Family’s house and slammed the paternity test results in front of them.
Previously, the confrontation between the Shen and Chu families had been quietly happening behind closed doors, but now, due to Chu Wan’s matter, it had been thrust into the open.
As for why the Chu family was so confident, it was because Chu Wan had adamantly claimed that the child was Shen Dang’s.
With what had happened before, there was no reason for the Chu family not to believe her.
Unexpectantly, the results turned out this way.
It was a shock that knocked the Chu family speechless.
The sound of being slapped in the face was almost audible.
Even Chu Xiuyun had been deceived by Chu Wan.
Chu Wan’s dream of marrying into the Shen Family was completely shattered.
She probably couldn’t stand the shock and wanted to terminate the pregnancy, but thankfully, her family found out in time and prevented it.
Who the father of the child in her womb really was remained a secret.
As Ran Jing left the Chu Family household triumphantly with Shen Hongxuan, their faces were full of pride, in contrast to the gloomy faces of the Chu family.
Qiao Xi thought her former mother-in-law was indeed formidable.
Wang Li and Qiao Xi agreed on the time to join the filming crew.
Qiao Xi had also received the official script.
In the evening, as the sun set, its last ray of light finally dipped below the horizon, leaving only a layer of pale yellow glow.
The vast sky turned indigo, seemingly swallowing up that bit of light, until night covered everything.
Qiao Xi sat on the balcony of her room reading the script she had gotten this morning when her phone suddenly rang.
It was Qu Keke’s call.
She had called quite frequently these days; Qiao Xi was no longer surprised.
Qiao Xi answered nonchalantly, "What’s up?"
"Qiao Xi, I saw Qiao Nan dining with your dad and a few executives!"
Qu Keke’s voice held an excited, somewhat strange tone, quite intriguing.
Qiao Xi didn’t care and replied lazily, "Why are you telling me this?"
She clarified, "Plus, he’s not my dad."
Qu Keke thought her ability to break ties with her family was cool, just one word: Respect!
She really respected Qiao Xi.
Qu Keke curiously said, "It’s strange for an executive to bring his daughter to a business meal, don’t you think?"
Qiao Xi contemplated her words and let out a cold, mocking smile, "None of this concerns me."
Qiao Xi knew from Wang Li that Qiao Nan had posted a photo on Weibo. Seeing it, she only found it laughable and nothing else.
Whether they had a close father-daughter relationship or if Qiao Zhenbin had ulterior motives with Qiao Nan, none of it concerned her.
Qu Keke pouted, "Just gossiping."
Qiao Xi indifferently replied, "Hanging up."
"Wait! Qiao Nan was taken away by one of the old men, and your dad watched the whole thing and even smiled!"
Qiao Xi: "..."
Qu Keke seemed to be reporting to her live, sighing, "This is in a hotel! Qiao Nan has disappeared."
Raised pampered and protected despite being from a wealthy family, no one dared to mess with Qu Keke.
But that didn’t mean she was unaware of some dark rules in the circle; such things in the wealthy circle were just the way they were.
She instantly understood.
"Your dad, uh, President Qiao, he..."
Qu Keke was confused but greatly shocked that a father could do such a thing to his daughter.
Is he even her real father?
Qu Keke stamped her foot, "So you really don’t care about your sister?"
Qiao Xi coldly uttered two words, "Don’t care."
That was their father and daughter’s business.
Qiao Zhenbin had once used her marriage as a bargaining chip; now, he could naturally use Qiao Nan.
Perhaps to him, a daughter was merely a business asset.
What did blood relations count for?
"Alright."
Qu Keke didn’t know what else to say.
Putting herself in Qiao Xi’s shoes, she probably wouldn’t care either.
None of her business!
As soon as Qiao Xi hung up, she heard a knock at the door.
Putting down the script, she walked to the door to open it.
"Want some juice? Should I make some?"
Qiao Xi glanced at Shen Dang’s apron, her lips twitched as she looked up at him, "Let’s have a drink."
She suspected Boss Shen wanted to switch careers to become a chef.
The apron on him looked quite out of place.
She felt like laughing.
But she held it back.
Shen Dang raised an eyebrow, leaned in close, and surveyed her face, "Drink when you can’t hold your liquor?"
Her face was plain but looked as if it had a filter, inexplicably beautiful.
Her expression was also very ordinary.
Shen Dang couldn’t see through the sudden behavior.
Qiao Xi said coolly, "Being drunk might be good."
Shen Dang squinted his peach-blossom eyes, his gaze ambiguous, "Are you clearly telling me to take advantage of you?"
