Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

He Jihong was so angry that her hands were trembling. She had worked so hard to maintain her good reputation for five years, but this day was completely ruined by the little slut. If she had known that this day would come, why would she have swallowed her anger for five years?

“Chu Yuanzhi, i… I don’t care anymore!”

He Jihong went back to her room to sulk. In the future, she would not pretend to be a virtuous person anymore. She would be sullen and unable to get anything out of it. Tomorrow, she would ask someone to find a man. It did not matter if he was older. As long as he could afford the 500 yuan betrothal gift, she would agree to the marriage.

Chu yuanzhi rubbed his temples. His head was about to explode. He wanted to hide back in the room, but he couldn’t. He had to go out and solve the problem.

Chu Qiao was becoming more and more disobedient. Sigh!

“Qiao Qiao, get up quickly. Your aunt he only said a few words. What are you doing?”Chu Yuanzhi wanted to help his daughter up, but Chu Qiao avoided him. He looked at him coldly, his face full of tears, “Didn’t you ask me to kowtow to Aunt He and admit my guilt? I kowtowed to you according to your words. I beg aunt he to be magnanimous and spare me. If there’s anything you’re not satisfied with, I’ll kowtow again!”

“How can you be so childish? Get up quickly!”

Chu Yuanzhi had a splitting headache. He could even feel the disdainful looks from his neighbors. In the hospital, no one looked up to him. They said behind his back that he was living off a woman, but he pretended not to hear it. Now that Chu Qiao was making such a scene, these people were probably looking down on him even more.

Sigh, what was going on!

The others also tried to persuade him. After a stalemate of more than ten minutes, Chu Qiao’s knees were numb. Then, he took the opportunity to make a request. “Dad, you won’t force me to marry again, right?”

The eyes of the neighbors became clear. No wonder an honest man would make such a scene twice in a row. It turned out that it was about marrying over to be a stepmother. He Jihong was really heartless.

“Dr. Chu, Chu Qiao is not old. There’s no need to hurry to get married. It’s not that you two can’t afford the salary. It’s a new society now. We don’t do arranged marriages!”

“Chu Qiao is so beautiful. What kind of good young man can’t get married? Why do you need to marry her and become the stepmother of your two children? Dr. Chu, you’re the biological father.”

Everyone tried to persuade him earnestly. Chu Yuanzhi couldn’t help but smile apologetically, but his smile became stiffer and stiffer. He didn’t feel good in his heart. He didn’t want to force his daughter to get married, but he didn’t have the final say in this family. He was also in a difficult position.

“I won’t. Jihong didn’t force Qiao Qiao to marry, she just discussed it with her,” Chu Yuanzhi explained vaguely.

Not to mention that Chu Qiao didn’t believe it, even the neighbors didn’t believe it. However, they didn’t expose it. She wasn’t their biological daughter, so there was no need to rush to offend people. A few words of persuasion were enough.

“Dad, don’t worry. I’ve already found a job. I work in a clothing factory. In the future, I’ll earn my own money. I Won’t let you get caught in the middle again.” Chu Qiao’s words shocked everyone.

Chu Yuanzhi was even more shocked. He Jihong, who was eavesdropping in the room, was also shocked. The little b*tch actually found a job. No wonder her wings had hardened. No, she couldn’t let the little b*tch go out to work. Otherwise, she would be ambitious and even more disobedient.

However, she didn’t want to go out. With so many people surrounding the door, she couldn’t hold back her face. He Jihong was so anxious that she circled around the room. She hoped that Chu Yuanzhi wouldn’t disappoint her.

“It’s a happy thing to find a job. Chairman said that women hold up half the sky, and we women can still contribute to the construction of socialism. Chu Qiao used to be idle at home for five years, and now he’s finally come to his senses. Not bad!”

The woman who spoke spoke spoke in an official tone, and he Jihong’s heart turned cold. This woman was her sworn enemy, department director Bi. Back then, she and this person surnamed Bi fought for the position of department director of women. In the end, she lost, and she could only go for an ultrasound, although the work was easy, the chief was a leader, and according to the ultrasound, he was just an ordinary doctor. The difference in salary was a grade. After that, He Jihong and chief bi didn’t even bother to greet each other, and they didn’t even have the slightest bit of face.

Chief BI looked at Chu Qiao with a smile. The honest man finally rebelled, and she was also holding on to He Jihong’s little pigtail.

“Chu Qiao, Aunt Bi supports you to work in the clothing factory. We women have to be independent and spend our own money. There’s no hurry to get married. In the future, Aunt Bi will introduce you to someone better. You’re so beautiful, and you’re not that old. Work hard first, and only after you have a career foundation can you marry a better young man!”

Although Director Bi was singing the opposite of He Jihong and was not a decent person, she had a good heart, and her words had hit the nail on the head of Chu Qiao.

Many people said that no matter how well a woman did, it was still not as good as marrying well. A beautiful woman could marry a good man. Chu Qiao had thought the same in the past, but now she was clear-headed.

There were only two kinds of women who could marry into a rich family. One was the daughter of a rich family, and they were of equal status.

The other was that the woman herself was very outstanding. Even if she didn’t have a prominent family background, the bright spots on her body were enough for her to establish herself in a rich family.

In his previous life, Chu Qiao liked to read the gossip in the entertainment circle, and he realized that many rich and powerful families wouldn’t marry female celebrities. At most, they would just play around as lovers. The real wife wasn’t the daughter of a rich and powerful family, she was an outstanding woman who had made great achievements in her career. For example, a certain Olympic champion. Her family was just an ordinary family, but she herself was extremely outstanding. She married into a top-tier rich and powerful family, and the media even described her as a lowly wife.

After the marriage, the couple was also very loving. This Olympic champion was very respected in her husband’s family. Naturally, it was because of her personality and charm, as well as the halo above her head. She was completely a match for the young master of a wealthy family.

Chu Qiao understood. No matter how beautiful a woman was, if she wasn’t outstanding enough, she wouldn’t even have the chance to meet an elite man. She wouldn’t be able to enter that circle at all. Director Bi’s words were absolutely right.

“Aunt Bi, I think so too. I’m only 21 years old. There’s no rush to get married. I want to work hard now and work hard to improve myself.”Chu Qiao also spoke the truth. The conflict between director Bi and He Jihong, it was beneficial to her.

She wanted to use the pressure of public opinion to force He Jihong to temporarily not dare to have any more ideas about her. After a week, she would go to the dance hall to work. She would ask President Tang to take her to see the staff quarters. If the conditions were okay, she would move out, if she couldn’t, she would rent an apartment. She would first ask President Tang for an advance on her salary. Although that President Tang looked fierce, he was still quite easy to talk to.

After listening to these words, everyone couldn’t help but have a different opinion of Chu Qiao. This child was honest and well-behaved, but she still had her own opinions. Director bi was especially satisfied. She really liked Chu Qiao being tough.

Chu Qiao being tough meant that he jihong wouldn’t be able to live a comfortable life. She couldn’t wait for the Chu family to be in chaos every day, and then she would come over to watch the joke. She would also tease He Jihong a few times, and tonight, she would definitely be able to eat an extra bowl of rice.

“Chu Qiao, you’ve finally awakened. That’s how it has to be. Aunt Bi supports you. Work hard. In two years, Aunt Bi will introduce you to a university student!”Director bi gave him a thumbs up and praised him. She even promised such a good partner to a university student.

He Jihong in the room was about to faint from anger. Damn it, the old b*tch and little b*tch had hooked up. The most infuriating thing was that this Bi’s in-law’s family was also from the Quad. When she went back to scold him, her father would definitely ask her to go back and lecture him..
