After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

When Cao Yun said these words, she acted unusually calm. Even though Qiao Hong's eyes were filled with the desire to kill, she was not afraid at all.

"Do you hate me very much? Do you want to do something to me? In fact, there are many loopholes in these things, which can often be seen at a glance, but you didn't notice it because you were greedy. You took your interests too seriously and forgot about everything. It's risky, Qiao Hong, you are penniless now, it's all your fault, you can't blame anyone."

"You!" Qiao Hong gritted his teeth angrily and stretched out his hand to hit Cao Yun.

But Cao Yun didn't blink, just looked at him quietly.

The two looked at each other for more than ten seconds, and Qiao Hong finally put down his arm. He grabbed a handful of his hair, desperate and collapsed.

He never thought that what he had always thought was a sure victory would turn out to be a trap set by Cao Yun.

The reason why she forgave him and stopped mentioning the divorce was to pave the way for all these things.

"Why! Why on earth, what good will it do you to kill me!" Qiao Hong asked Cao Yun with a trembling voice, "If I really go to jail, have you ever thought about what your son and daughter will do? You said I am greedy , do whatever it takes for the sake of profit, what about you, isn’t everything you are doing now selfish?”

"Maybe." Cao Yun said: "No matter how selfish I am in your eyes, I have a clear conscience. Qiao Ying and Qiao Xi are not my children alone. I am not the only person who caused their misfortune. I have no obligation to devote all my energy to bear this for you because of your mistakes. My son and daughter can hate me, but this does not mean that I will have to endure hardships for you for the rest of my life."

After Cao Yun finished speaking, he stood up and took out his suitcase from the room.

"I have transferred this house to Yingying and Qiao Xi. I think they don't want to see you anymore, so I hope you move out of here as soon as possible and don't let the children's lives change because of you. Being affected again and again.”

With a bang, Cao Yun left without looking back.

The moment she walked out of this door, she might usher in a new life, but Qiao Hong's life fell to the bottom.

Qiao Hong received a call from Qiao Jie, saying that the old man failed to rescue him in the end and he was gone.

When Qiao Hong stumbled to the hospital, outside the operating room door, there was a crowd of people of all sizes, all from the Qiao family.

Mr. Qiao was just pushed out. Qiao Hong saw that the old man was covered with a piece of white cloth. It was like countless needles had been stuffed into his throat, and he couldn't even say "Dad".

There were cries in the corridor, and Qiao Hong's brain was numb as he listened to the cries.

In a daze, Qiao Jie rushed over angrily and punched him hard, "You bastard! Dad was so angry to death by you that you have ruined the face of our Qiao family for the rest of our lives!"

The third uncle also came over to reprimand him, "Among our sons, the one whom I love the most is you, but look at what you have done. How do you want us to be good people in the future? What do you want the children to do in the future?" "

Some of the grandchildren, whom the old man usually loves more than others, came over and beat Qiao Hong, crying, "Get out! You've made grandpa so angry, why do you still have the nerve to come to the hospital? Get out!"

Qiao Xi and Qiao Ying were also there, but they stood behind and did not come forward. They looked at Qiao Hong, who was about to turn fifty, with cold faces, being criticized and scolded by several juniors.

Although everyone knew very well that even without Qiao Hong's incident, the old man's body would not be able to survive this summer.

However, Qiao Hong still became the target of public criticism and became a reason for everyone to vent their anger and grief.

In Qiao Ying's words, this is Qiao Hong's retribution.

Qiao Hong was scolded by the juniors and couldn't hold his head up. When his eyes met Qiao Xi and Qiao Ying's eyes unintentionally, the alienation and disgust in their eyes deeply hurt Qiao Hong.

He also realized that what he had been doing for so long had not only come to nothing, but had even been disliked by his own daughter and son.

No one in this world failed more than him.

Qiao Xing learned about the death of Mr. Qiao the next day.

The call was from Qiao Jie. He changed his usual speaking style. When talking to Qiao Xing, his tone was much heavier, "I know you haven't seen the old man much since you were a child, but he is gone. How can you She is said to be the old man’s granddaughter, so if you have time, come and see him off.”

After Qiao Xing hung up the phone, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

She couldn't believe that the old man who had said he would have a birthday party two days ago suddenly said no and disappeared.

Qiao Xing couldn't tell whether he was sad or not, he just felt depressed and a little out of breath.

Grandpa Qin was sitting on a chair reading the newspaper. He turned around and saw that Qiao Xing was in a bad mood. He hurriedly took off his glasses and asked, "Xingxing, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"Mr. Qiao... passed away."

Grandpa Qin was also shocked, "Wasn't this fine two days ago? How could it be so sudden?"

Qiao Xing shook his head, "I don't know either."

Although she knew something about Mr. Qiao's physical condition before, when she heard the news of his death, Qiao Xing didn't know how to digest it.

Grandpa Qin knew that Qiao Xing was pregnant, and the most taboo thing about him was hearing about life and death. He quickly comforted Qiao Xing, "When people get old, it will happen sooner or later. Don't think about it. Qin Ce will be back soon. When he comes back, tell him what to do about this matter."

Mr. Qiao's funeral was scheduled for three days later. In the evening, Qin Ce came back from get off work. Qiao Xing told him about the incident. Qin Ce was silent for a while when he learned that Mr. Qiao had passed away.

"You want to send him off?"

Qiao Xing expressed his true thoughts, "Although he and I didn't have a deep relationship, I was still a little sad when I heard about his death. When we were alive, we didn't want to get close due to various reasons. , I don’t want to meet, and now that he is gone, I feel that there is nothing I can’t let go of. No matter what, I am a descendant of the Qiao family, so I should give him a gift.”

It's not that Qin Ce doesn't want her to go, it's just that her current physical condition makes it really inappropriate to go to that kind of occasion, "Do you have to go?"

Qiao Xing knew what he was worried about. She touched her belly and said, "It's okay. After all, they are the children's relatives. There is no need to deliberately avoid taboos. I will take good care of myself and nothing will go wrong." .”

Qin Ce was still worried, "I'll go with you."

Qiao Xing did not refuse, "Okay."

At the funeral, Qiao's family will all show up, including Qiao Hong. She doesn't hope that anything else will happen then. With Qin Ce here, she can feel more at ease.
