Chapter 390
Su Lu was of course aware that he was her ex-husband, having heard Bo Jingshen mention something about Jing Qiao once.
Su Lu felt that her life had been quite miserable for the past twenty or so years.
But compared to Jing Qiao, it seemed somewhat better, which goes to show that one must not compare oneself with others, or they might actually become content.
Jing Qiao was Jing Ce’s illegitimate daughter, but her life had initially been decent because Jing Qiao’s mother wasn’t as obsessive as Bo Jingshen’s mother.
Jing Qiao’s mother had no such obsessions and never gave birth to her daughter as a means to gain anything from Jing Ce.
It was purely out of an unwillingness to let go of the small life growing inside her. After Jing Qiao was born, she and her mother depended solely on each other. The trouble started as Jing Qiao grew up and became increasingly beautiful.
After seeing her once, Jing Ce started to voluntarily provide child support. Loving her daughter, the mother used the money to nurture her, ensuring she received a better education.
Jing Qiao indeed lived up to expectations, excelling remarkably, not only in ballet but also academically. When it was time for college entrance exams, she didn’t go for an arts-specific exam but took the regular one and got into one of the top universities.
To put it bluntly, not many daughters from wealthy families could match Jing Qiao’s excellence.
And then one day, her mother died suddenly in a traffic accident.
A heavy truck that was overloaded, a driver fatigued from driving, and her gentle mother became a gruesomely disfigured corpse.
