Chapter 308 - 310: Teasing_1
Li Qiao gave a vague response, not because she intended to conceal the situation of her residence in the city but because Li Jiaojiao had soft ears and was easily deceived by Li Shengcai.
If the address got exposed, dealing with Li Shengcai and Dong Lamei showing up at her doorstep would be too troublesome.
As the sky darkened, Li Jiaojiao invited Li Qiao to stay for dinner, which she refused.
In a little while, it would be dark and difficult to see clearly on the road—quite inconvenient.
Li Qiao rode alone to the junction, where, by coincidence, she encountered Cai Hechuan’s mother, being chauffeured by a middle-aged man.
"Oh, isn’t this the Top Scholar? Finally deciding to come back home for the summer holiday," He Qiurong said with a sarcastic tone.
Li Qiao ignored her.
He Qiurong boasted, "Our Hechuan has also been assigned a job in Beijing, with a dormitory provided by the unit. He plans to bring me to Beijing to stay for a few days."
"Jin’s household registration has been transferred to Beijing too," Li Qiao began to boast as well.
He Qiurong said shrilly, "You’re bragging, right? He’s got neither a job nor an education. Which unit would take him in?" Her own son, a college student, hadn’t even transferred his household registration to Beijing yet.
"Jin has a job. He passed the self-taught accounting qualification, and now he’s an honorable accountant, working in a transportation unit, and he’s even been recommended to learn to drive," Li Qiao bragged about Qin Jin’s abilities. She knew He Qiurong’s intention was to compare Cai Hechuan with Qin Jin and to belittle Qin Jin.
