Chapter 282: Venting is Good for the Body
Little Auntie Luo asked with some excitement, "Is there any way to treat the spots on my face?"
Luo Qiao said, "I’m afraid I won’t have time these few days, but once I get back to Ji City, I’ll prepare it and send it to Little Auntie. You can rest assured there won’t be any side effects. However, it can only lighten them, not cure them instantly. It will probably take a few months."
Gu Hongjuan was overjoyed to hear this. She always felt envious when she saw someone with fair skin because the melasma on her face hadn’t faded over the years, and she had invested a lot of effort into trying to treat it.
Everyone else began to ask about Luo Qiao’s life and studies, and she answered all their questions in detail. Everyone felt sorry for Luo Qiao and collectively condemned the Zhao Family and the Luo Family.
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "It’s all in the past; I’m doing pretty well now. You all don’t need to dwell on what happened before."
Grandma Luo said, "That’s right, my granddaughter is correct. We have to look forward. Can’t Qiaoqiao come back to Capital City for high school?"
Luo Qiao patted her grandmother’s hand beside her, "I’m doing quite well at Ji City First Middle School, and I was exempted from tuition fees when I went there. I can’t just up and leave now. It’s only a few years anyway, and I plan to work hard and return to Capital City through my own efforts."
Luo Qiao didn’t want to come back early for several reasons: first, she wouldn’t be as free; second, she wasn’t used to it; third, she didn’t want others to think she had gone from a sparrow to a phoenix overnight. She was fully capable of getting back to Capital on her own merit, without wanting to invite any criticism.
While everyone was enthusiastically chatting, there was a noise at the gate. Younger Cousin Luo Jiayue stood up and looked outside, "It’s my second auntie who’s returned."
Ning Xueling entered the yard, propped up her bicycle and felt somewhat conflicted. She felt she hadn’t been fair to her daughter, yet she wasn’t sure if she could get along well with her biological daughter. She had thought about going to visit her personally, but she hesitated in the end.
As she opened the door and went in, she saw her daughter sitting beside her mother-in-law at first glance. The child looked so much like her own mother, even more so than herself, her biological daughter.
