âThe next day, there was another family banquet. â
âWhen Qiao Yanze arrived at the old residence, he realized that something was wrong. ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHe didnât know what Qiao Yanxun had done wrong, but for the first time, Qiao Fengnian didnât care about his eldest sonâs face and reprimanded him mercilessly in front of the others and even the servants at home. Although he lowered his voice so that no one could hear him, he knew from his expression that it wasnât anything good. To Qiao Yanxun, this scene was embarrassing enough. â
!!
He pursed his lips and looked extremely gloomy.
âQiao Yansen, who was watching the show, sneered while Qiao Yanni seemed to be gloating. â
Qiao Yanzeâs eyes flashed and he quickly guessed the reason.
âEver since he joined the board of directors, Qiao Yansen and Qiao Yanni had been targeting him. Qiao Yanxun had been watching from the sidelines, but now it seemed⦠Qiao Yanxun was the target of their schemes again. â
âObviously, ever since he met him last time, Qiao Yansen had realized that his brother had been fanning the flames and sowing discord. With Qiao Yansenâs vengeful personality, how could he not take revenge? â
âWith the internal strife at this stage, the so-called brotherhood was no longer there. â
Qiao Yanze suddenly found it ridiculous.
âHe walked in and greeted everyone. Qiao Fengnian glanced at him and ended his lecture to Qiao Yanxun. He said in a low voice, ââSince everyone is here, letâs eat.ââ â
âQiao Yanni immediately walked over with a smile and held Qiao Fengnianâs arm affectionately. ââDad, donât be angry. I was just careless.ââ â
âAs the only daughter, Qiao Yanni would occasionally wheedle or do some intimate actions, which made Qiao Fengnian quite happy, so he snorted and did not refute. â
âQiao Yanxun seemed to have calmed down. When he walked over, he bumped into Qiao Yansen. Their gazes were burning. â
âââBrother, do you like this gift?ââ Qiao Yansen chuckled, not hiding that he had done it in private. â
âââDo you know that you have no hope, so youâre acting like a mad dog?ââ Qiao Yanxun said coldly. â
âQiao Yansenâs facial features were distorted. ââHow dare you mentionâ¦ââ â
âââYouâre the one who attacked. Why donât I dare mention it?ââ Qiao Yanxun sneered. ââYanze was lucky this time. Why? Are you planning to do the same to me?ââ â
âQiao Yansen was furious. Just as he was about to attack, Qiao Yanze placed his hand on his shoulder. ââSecond Brother, thatâs enough.ââ â
His tone was cold and emotionless.
Qiao Yansen snorted coldly and turned to walk to the dining room.
âQiao Yanxun turned to Qiao Yanze and smiled. ââYouâre back from your vacation! Was it fun in Interlaken?ââ â
Qiao Yanzeâs pupils constricted.
âââItâs alright,ââ he replied calmly. â
âQiao Yanxun put on an ambiguous smile and didnât continue asking, but his smile was enough to make Qiao Yanze wary. â
He pursed his lips and looked at Qiao Yanxunâs back for a long time until Madam Qiao came out to greet him with a smile.
âThe dining table was quieter than usual. Other than asking Qiao Yanze about his recovery, Qiao Fengnian didnât say much. Because of his silence, Madam Qiao didnât joke around like she used to. â
âAfter dinner, the children returned to their respective homes. â
Qiao Yanze walked to the car and saw Qiao Yanxun driving past him.
There was that ambiguous smile again on his face.
Qiao Yanze suddenly gripped his car keys tightly.
