Chapter 1070: Are You The Qiao Family's Biological Daughter?
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
Shu Xinyu looked like she was completely immersed in the family atmosphere. Qiao Mu did not see that gentle expression on her face often. It was the gentleness Shu Xinyu used to show Ning Tongtong, but it was even more intense now.
Qiao Mu only felt a stinging pain in her eyes, but she didnât stop and walked past the roomâs door.
Qiao Mu felt that Shu Xinyu was truly ironic. She abandoned her child, yet she lived a blissful life with a clear conscience. In the past, Qiao Mu would still think that Shu Xinyu was a good mother to Ning Tongtong, but now, she only felt nauseous. Perhaps everything Shu Xinyu did, whether it was playing the role of a good mother or playing the role of a good person at the orphanage, was all to make up for the mistakes she had once committed.
No! Shu Xinyu had never felt that she had done anything wrong. This woman was truly terrifyingly selfish.
Qiao Mu always thought that if her mother wasnât so terrible, perhaps she wouldâve kept harboring the thought of acknowledging her mother. Fortunately, Shu Xinyu was so heartless that she completely let go of this thought.
Since she had nothing to do with that woman for the past 18 years, she hoped that the time in the future would remain the same forever.
When Qiao Mu walked past the door of the room, Shu Xinyuâs gaze caught her, and her expression changed. She said that she was going to the washroom and got up to leave the room.
Qiao Mu stood in front of the sink in the bathroom to wash her hands. When she looked up at the mirror, she realized that Shu Xinyu was standing behind her.
Her expression darkened and she looked at him expressionlessly. She wiped her hands clean and turned around to leave.
âQiao Mu, I have something to ask you,â Shu Xinyu said at this moment.
Qiao Mu stopped in her tracks, her eyes cold. â Madam Shu, I donât think I can help you with anything. â
â Then Iâll get straight to the point. I want to know if youâre the biological daughter of the Qiao family. â Shu Xinyu looked at Qiao Mu with a hint of uncertainty in her tone.
Upon hearing her words, Qiao Muâs pupils constricted. â What do you mean? â
Shu Xinyu observed Qiao Mu. â When I was at the orphanage, I heard the director say that youâre an orphan. Is this true? â
Hearing the other partyâs questioning tone, Qiao Mu sneered. â Donât you think youâre very rude? You asked me if Iâm an orphan right away. What does it have to do with you? Ms. Shu is being kind and wants to care about me, the person youâve always hated and despised?â
Qiao Mu, Iâm asking you calmly. â
âHeh, why should I answer you when you ask me?â
Qiao Mu clenched her fists tightly, sinking them into her palms. She desperately reminded herself to calm down and not reveal any trace of agitation.
Shu Xinyu frowned. â With your upbringing, itâs not surprising that youâre an orphan. Is this how Qiao Jiannan taught you to talk to your elders? You have no manners at all!â
At this moment, Qiao Mu really wanted to laugh out loud. This was what Shu Xinyu should have said. This was her true colors!
The woman who had been pretending to be gentle and talking to her just now was not Shu Xinyuâs nature at all!
Qiao Mu looked straight at Shu Xinyu and said word by word, ââ Ms. Shu, my upbringing has nothing to do with you. You donât have the right to criticize my father. You were the one who took the initiative to look for me. I donât want to have any conversation with you. Iâve always been like this to irrelevant people. â
Shu Xinyuâs expression turned ugly. She did not expect Qiao Mu to not give her face like this.
