Chapter 80 - A Final Warning

Qiao Xin wasn’t sure if it was because her life was threatened that a light bulb went on in her head. She grabbed Qiao Yue’s hands with hers to give herself space to breathe.

“I, ahem, I don’t know what exactly she stole, but I, uh, know that your mother must have stolen it.”

Qiao Xin took a deep breath and continued, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask any of the elders in the Qiao family. They all know about it.”

Qiao Yue frowned deeply when she heard this. Qiao Xin had no reason to lie to her at this time. So, what exactly did her mother steal?

Qiao Yue shook off Qiao Xin’s hands with great force and took out a tissue to wipe her hands as if she had touched something dirty.

Qiao Xin couldn’t care less about Qiao Yue’s actions. She fell to the ground and started panting. What suffocated her wasn’t Qiao Yue’s strength, but her oppression. It was as if she was being stared at by a beast that would tear her into pieces if she said anything wrong.

Qiao Xin couldn’t stop crying. She had always been a princess admired by many since young, but why? Why did everyone change when they met Qiao Yue? On what basis?

At the thought of this, Qiao Xin couldn’t help but glare at Qiao Yue angrily. She didn’t expect that Qiao Yue was also looking at her and looked away quickly.

Qiao Yue sneered. “Qiao Xin, even though you haven’t told me your reasons for picking on me, I can only think of three. First, your family will get less inheritance once I’m back in the Qiao family. Second, I stole the limelight from you, the princess of the Qiao family, but this is quite strange because how does a boy steal the limelight from a princess? I don’t get it. And the third reason, because second brother seems to be paying more attention to me compared to you.”

Qiao Xin’s breathing stopped. Qiao Yue had psychoanalyzed her perfectly and all her dark thoughts had been exposed. Why did he do this?

“You’re curious why I’m telling you all this, right?”

Qiao Yue was clearly smiling, but Qiao Xin felt extremely cold.

“Because I’m giving you a final warning. No matter what you do, it’s just a clown’s trick to me. You’re worried that I’ll take away some of the Qiao family’s assets, but there’s nothing you can do if the old master decides to take me back. Not only you. Your mother couldn’t do anything either. As for your jealousy and resentment, the admiration and love you crave had to be given by others. What’s the point of being jealous and resentful? Ask yourself, without all these, what do you have left?”

Qiao Yue’s words were like a sharp knife, but also a hypnotizing pocket watch. Qiao Xin’s mind followed them unconsciously.

Unknowingly, Qiao Xin’s tears had covered her entire face and she looked embarrassing.

Qiao Yue had a bad habit. If the person whom she defeated wasn’t truly evil, she would remind them to try to change their ways. If that person continued to act stubborn and continued to find trouble with her, she would be ruthless.

Just as Qiao Yue turned to leave, she heard Qiao Xin say in a low voice, “Qiao Yue, you said that I’m useless, then what about you? What do you have that’s worthy of attention?”

Qiao Yue could still hear the resentment in Qiao Xin’s voice, but it was less vicious.

Qiao Yue watched the teenagers who were playing carefreely on the basketball court from afar and chuckled, “Something worthy of attention? It’s probably because they want to know something from me!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Qiao Yue didn’t give Qiao Xin a chance to ask more questions and left.

In Qiao Yue’s eyes, Qiao Xin was just an immature, naughty child. When she was bad, she was really bad and made you want to kill her. But in the end, the main reason naughty children behaved this way was because their parents didn’t teach them well. So, Qiao Yue gave Qiao Xin a warning. What she did next was up to her. However, Qiao Yue had said a lot since she came back but very few people listened.

Qiao Xin was a little stunned as she watched Qiao Yue leave. Qiao Yue was older than her by less than a year but he seemed to have experienced a lot.

Although she used to think that Qiao Yue was scary, she believed that Qiao Yue would not dare to touch her no matter what until today. She didn’t think so now. If it wasn’t because she was sure that Qiao Yue’s mother had stolen something, she believed that Qiao Yue would really beat her to death just now.
