Chapter 106: Scheming
Qiao Shan also felt that Qiao Nian had gone too far. Haughtily, he said, "Hurry up and bring back all the Suranne Grass that you’ve taken to the Gu residence. Then, I won’t pursue the fact that you talked back to your elders today!"
Qiao Nian clenched her fists tightly.
Ha!
Pursuing the matter.
What a great turn of phrase!
Qiao Nian had never expected Qiao Shan to brazenly shield Qiao Xin, the thief, just for a pot of Suranne Grass.
Qiao Nian was even starting to doubt whether she was Qiao Shan and Su Xue’s biological daughter. Why did their attitudes towards their two daughters differ so much?
Qiao Nian put away her thoughts and looked coldly at Qiao Xin, her lips curving up slightly as she said, "Qiao Xin, since you don’t want to return the Suranne Grass, then I won’t want it either. But you have to think this through carefully. Whether you can afford to keep this pot of Suranne Grass around is a matter you evidently haven’t considered. When the time comes, I hope you won’t kneel down and beg me to accept it!"
