Hidden identities of the AI Heiress

Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Lu Jingzhi and Qiao Yun Have An Argument

Lu Guangyao spotted Qiao Yun and immediately stood up to walk towards her.

“Lu Xue already knows her mistakes. Let’s just forget it this time, shall we? She’s still a child.”

“She’s eighteen, not a minor anymore.”

The look in Qiao Yun’s eyes did not change, yet Lu Guangyao inexplicably felt breathless.

“What will it take for you to forgive her?”

However, Qiao Yun replied, “It’s none of your business; I’ve taken care of it for you, no thanks needed.”

Lu Guangyao choked up.

Su Mian blocked Qiao Yun and said to Lu Guangyao, “It’s precisely because we are all relatives that we cannot easily forgive Lu Xue. Let her learn her lesson so she won’t cause trouble for you again.”

Lu Guangyao’s mouth twitched stiffly.

So he should thank them for taking Lu Xue to the police station?

He could no longer stay and left with a somber face.

Only then did Su Mian say, “Qiaoqiao, you are amazing. I didn’t expect you to be so good at aggravating people.”

Qiao Yun looked bewildered, “I was genuinely telling the truth.”

Lu Rui silently smiled, looking at Qiao Yun with a mix of sympathy and amusement.

“Whether it’s the truth or aggravating, you did exactly right; she shouldn’t be easily forgiven.”

After finishing her sentence, Su Mian went to the kitchen to make something delicious to calm Qiao Yun’s nerves.

Lu Rui, after understanding the cause and effect from Qiao Yun, went up to the study and called a friend to attempt to interfere with Lu Guangyao’s business.

How could he not hold a grudge after his daughter was bullied?

The living room was left with Jingzhi and Qiao Yun.

Jingzhi looked at Qiao Yun for a moment before speaking, “From now on, stop associating with Pei Ya and Li Hanzhou.”

Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids and stared at him silently.

Jingzhi explained, “The reason this incident happened is because you were too close with them.”

When statuses are disparate, misunderstandings are inevitable.

If someone of equal status to Qiao Yun were involved, the incident would not have had such an impact.

Qiao Yun indifferently said, “They are my friends.”

Jingzhi pondered, “If you want friends, I can find some for you. There are several children of our company’s partners who are about your age.”

He thought this was a good idea and a great way to deepen cooperation between their families.

Qiao Yun objected, “You can’t make decisions about my friends for me.”

Seeing Qiao Yun’s resoluteness, Jingzhi persuaded, “I’m your elder brother. Whatever decision I make is for your own good; listen to me this time.”

Qiao Yun silently watched him, her eyes unswayed.

Jingzhi held her gaze, “The Pei and Li families have different circumstances from ours; you don’t know if they have other motives.”

Qiao Yun frowned, her tone stern, “You can’t talk about them like that; they have been good to me.”

Jingzhi paused, astonished that his sister was getting angry at him for outsiders.

He had indeed misunderstood Qiao Yun before, but he had realized his mistake and was now trying to mend their relationship.

His words were not misplaced.

People like them had inscrutable intentions, and Qiao Yun had suffered because of them.

He was just worried about Qiao Yun being played by them.

But why couldn’t Qiao Yun understand?

If it were Lu Ting, she would definitely have listened to him obediently.

He was momentarily annoyed and blurted out, “With so many people at school, why must you befriend them?”

As soon as the words left his mouth, Jingzhi pursed his lips, seemingly regretting them a bit.

Qiao Yun opened her mouth, her tone serious as she told him.

“Don’t worry, the matter is settled. I won’t disgrace the Lu Family; this kind of thing won’t happen again.”

Her gaze was clear, yet inexplicably, there seemed to be an understanding as if she had seen through everything.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
