Old Madam Qiao had no choice but to agree to meet up with Qiao Weiyang.
She went straight to the hotel that Qiao Weiyang had mentioned without anyone accompanying her.
She had just entered the shop when she was stopped by a few family friends she knew. âOld Madam Qiao? Oh, why are you here alone?â
âThatâs right. Why isnât there anyone with you?â
Old Madam Qiao had a smile on her face. âI want to come out alone today to have some peace and quiet.â
âThatâs true. The children in her family are all promising. Sometimes, itâs inevitable that they donât have time to accompany her,â a noblewoman said. âI heard that Dongliang is studying in a very good school overseas. I think itâs called the Ivy League University of Northern California, right?â
âThat school is really amazing! Two of our familyâs shareholdersâ children are in this school! Itâs very impressive. Ordinary people canât get into it!â another noblewoman said.
Old Madam Qiao was in a good mood when she heard that. Qiao Jierou had carefully chosen this school for him. Every time it was mentioned, people would praise it. It could be seen how powerful it was.
Only Qiao Dongliang, who was deceived by Qiao Weiyang, would not cherish such good resources and rush back.
âOld Madam, the next time Dongliang comes back, I want him to guide my good-for-nothing son. I also want him to go overseas to study as soon as possible, so he might as well not take the college entrance examination. With more connections overseas, he can gain more experience and develop the ability to handle international affairs in the future.â
âOf course. When Dongliang comes back, Iâll bring him to meet everyone.â Old Madam Qiao was even more determined to let Qiao Dongliang continue to study overseas.
âI still have something on, so I wonât be accompanying you guys.â Old Madam Qiao stood up.
âOkay, Old Madam. Take care.â
Old Madam Qiao walked out of their line of sight and found the private room Qiao Weiyang had mentioned. She knocked on the door angrily.
The door opened. The radiant Qiao Weiyang stood in front of Old Madam Qiao and said calmly, âPlease come in.â
âWhereâs the file?â Old Madam Qiao didnât want to say anything else and went straight to the point.
âI donât have his file.â Qiao Weiyang spread her hands.
âYou!â Old Madam Qiao was like a firecracker. Qiao Weiyangâs words could ignite her. âDongliang was called back by you, right? Canât you bear to see him do well? Although he wasnât born by the same mother as you, heâs still a child born by the same father! Dongliang treats you well and has always protected you. How can you bear to treat him like this?! How can you bear to?!â
Facing Old Madam Qiaoâs unreasonable accusations, Qiao Weiyang quietly turned on the TV in front of her.
The news was playing on the TV, but Old Madam Qiao was not in the mood to watch it. âQiao Weiyang, Iâm talking to you! You have to listen carefully today. Promise me that in the futureâ¦
âOld Madam, I think youâd better take a look at all the relevant news about this university called the Ivy League University of Northern California, â Qiao Weiyang said.
Hearing the words âthe Ivy League University of Northern Californiaâ, Old Madam Qiaoâs attention was attracted.
Some of the news on TV was foreign news with subtitles, but there was also a lot of domestic news, so it ws clear what was being said.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âRecently, many students have gathered at the Ivy League University of Northern California to do drugs, attracting the attention of all parties. This isnât the first time this school has been involved in such incidents. Itâs reported that this school doesnât have the qualifications to operate. Later on, although it gained the qualifications after the principal fought for it, there are many group incidents every yearâ¦
âCases of beating up students and bullying the girls in the school are also rampant.
âThe participation of students in gambling has already attracted strong attention and opposition from wealthy families in many European countries.â
As Old Madam Qiao listened to the news on the TV, her expression became uglier and uglier.
She pointed at Qiao Weiyang. âWhere did you find all this news? You think you can fool me with some news? You want me to change my mind? Itâs not that simple.â
âThere are also newspaper clippings here.â Qiao Weiyang pointed at a large pile of newspapers and said, âBelieve it if you want to. But if you donât⦠Since Qiao Dongliang still calls me âSisterâ, I wonât sit back and do nothing! Iâll let him go to any school he wants!â
âDonât even think about it!â Old Madam Qiao looked at the news and newspapers, her heart wavering.
She had always been very cautious when it came to things that were bad for Qiao Dongliang.
However, this was the information provided by Qiao Weiyang, so she was suspicious and refused to believe it.
If it had been Qiao Jierou who presented this information, Old Madam Qiao would definitely believe it on the spot.
âIâve already made it clear to you. If youâre still stubborn, Iâll use my own methods,â Qiao Weiyang said calmly.
Of course, Old Madam Qiao would not be threatened. âAlright, letâs see whoâs really doing this for Qiao Dongliangâs own good!â
With that, she flicked her sleeves and walked out.
She felt even more disgusted with Qiao Weiyang. Why was she everywhere? She even had to interfere in her familyâs matters!
Old Madam Qiao would never let Qiao Weiyang interfere in Qiao Dongliangâs matters!
She made up her mind and called the butler, asking him to send more bodyguards to keep an eye on Qiao Dongliang. This had to be done until he was sent overseas.
Then, Old Madam Qiao immediately called Lin Heng. âLin Heng, book a few plane tickets. I want to send Dongliang overseas!â
âThis⦠Grandma, are you sure?â Lin Heng asked. Could it be that Qiao Weiyang and Old Madam Qiao had not reached an agreement?
âIâm sure! Arrange it for me immediately!â Old Madam Qiao couldnât wait any longer. Even if she hadnât gotten Qiao Dongliangâs file yet, she had to send him away first so that Qiao Weiyang wouldnât interfere.
Lin Heng could only agree first.
After agreeing, he called Qiao Weiyang.
Qiao Weiyang frowned. Was Old Madam Qiao really stubborn?
When Old Madam Qiao arrived at the dining hall, the noblewomen had yet to leave.
When they saw Old Madam Qiao, someone immediately spoke to her.
âOld Madam, you havenât left yet! I just received a piece of news and want to tell you about it,â one of the noblewomen said loudly.
Old Madam Qiao walked over and asked, âWhat news?â
âThe latest news from just now is that thereâs been a shooting at the Ivy League University in Northern California! Dozens of students have died! Itâs said that this isnât the first time such a thing has happened!â
âThatâs right. In some countries, guns are legal. As long as youâre an adult, you can buy guns legally. Itâs really dangerous!â
âBesides, I just got someone to ask around. They said that not only are there shootings in this school, but there are also drugs, fights, and gambling. Anyway, the students there do all kinds of drugs..â
