Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 209: What Happened to Your Face, You Look Like You Were Beaten Up

She reluctantly gave the cab driver the fare and headed home as he sized her up.

Dad, Mom, Grandma, Im home.
Not in good spirits, Qiao Chen changed out of her shoes and walked in tiredly.

The atmosphere at home had been heavy these days.

I heard that Zhao Jingwei is about to be sentenced.

Qiao Chen saw her parents usual disappointed expressions the moment she entered, and that made her feel even worse.

Qiao Nian was such a jinx!

If only shed just gone to Luohe County, but no, shed chosen to stay in Rao City.
Ever since she left their family, they seemed to have been cursed by her.
Every day was terrible.

Shen Qiongzhi quickly got up when she saw that Qiao Chen was home.
She got the housemaid to help her carry her stuff while forcing a smile.
Chen Chen, youre back.
Was it tiring in school today? Youre back only now, were you out having dinner with Fu Ge?

Qiao Chen stammered while avoiding her eyes.
Im not tired Mm, we had dinner.

So, Fu Ge sent you back? Shen Qiongzhis smile finally turned genuine.
She felt relieved deep down.
No matter the family situation, as long as Qiao Chen was still with Fu Ge, she wouldnt have to worry about her daughters future.

Qiao Chen felt as if she had been stabbed in the heart, and by her own mother at that.
She bit her lip and tried to save herself from embarrassment.
Mm.

Anyone who listened closely would be able to tell that her response was unconvincing.
Even her eyes were shifting.

But Shen Qiongzhi had been depending on this one matter for security for the past whole month and did not sense anything different about Qiao Chens mood.

She even teased her.
Since hes already sent you back, how could you not have called Fu Ge to come in and have a seat? Mom could pare some fruits for him and the both of you can talk for a bit more.

Qiao Chen felt bad now and quickly cut her off.
Mom, hes busy.
Another day.

Shen Qiongzhi knew that the Fu family was different from theirs.
The Fu family was such an important household in Rao City and Fu Ge was such a young, handsome talent.
He had so much expected of him, so this was no surprise.

She didnt harp on this and instead, casually said, Thats true.
Ask him out when hes free, then.
Get him to come over and have a meal with us, Ill prepare his favorite dishes for him.
Let your father and him have a good talk over some tea.

Although Qiao Weimin was upset at how the Fu family was leaving the Qiao Corporation in the lurch, he was still very satisfied with Fu Ge as a son-in-law.

Moreover, he knew that Fu Ge couldnt call the shots in the Fu family yet.

But Fu Ge was the most outstanding child among his cousins in the Fu family, and also a high-achieving student in Qing University.
The Fu familys power would be handed to him someday.
If Qiao Chen married him in the future, there were only benefits to be reaped.

Hence, he added as Shen Qiongzhi tried to teach her daughter the ropes, Your mom is right.
Fu Ge has been back for so long, but you havent even invited him over for a meal yet.
Youve got to be more caring as a girlfriend.
Dont just go with the flow without showing much concern.
No matter how much a guy loves you, his heart would still go cold if you go on being like that.

Moreover, Fu Ge respects you and hasnt spent the night with you since youre still young.
This makes it even more plausible for others to come between you.
Hes such a fine young man, youd better do whats right for yourself.

Qiao Chen felt her face go red and covered her cheeks with her hands.
She raised her voice at her dad as her eyes were filled with shame and frustration.
Dad, what are you saying!

Shen Qiongzhi suddenly noticed her slightly swollen face.
Wait a minute, Chen Chen, what happened to your face and knees?

Her knees were wrapped in a bandage.

And she appeared to have been beaten on the face?
