Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Su Qingyan is Stabbed Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Su Qingyan is Stabbed Su Qingqing felt very sorry as she said to Qiao Yun, “Cousin, I’m sorry. Just ignore my mom, that’s how she is.”
Qiao Yun replied succinctly, “Stranger, I don’t mind.”
Su Qingqing looked troubled and did not say much, chasing after her mother instead.
Su Mian laughed, “Did you see the expression on Ye Miaoshan’s face just now? It killed . She doesn’t even feel embarrassed.”
Looking at his wife who seed to be gloating over Ye Miaoshan’s misfortune, Lu Rui helplessly reminded her, “That’s your brother’s wife. If she loses face, so does your brother.”
Su Mian dismissed it, “Why should I care? She was being so an to Qiaoqiao. I really don’t understand her; why does she always feel the need to compete with ?”
Qiao Yun also didn’t understand it; competing with her… one might as well be dood.
…
After the speech, there was a session for offline interaction.
Qiao Yun wasn’t interested in this segnt, so she went off to eat sothing, with Su Qingqing sticking close by her side.
Lu Rui saw a few acquaintances and went over to greet them, while Su Mian also ran into a person she knew, her junior sister Lin Si.
“I was just looking for you,” said Lin Si, her makeup flawless and her deanor graceful, sowhat surprised to encounter her here.
“What’s the matter?” Su Mian saw that Lin Si appeared a bit excited, which puzzled her.
Lin Si quickly asked, “Do you still have so of that Nourishing Face Cream from last ti?”
Su Mian shook her head: “No, I used it all up.”
In fact, she did have a little left, but she was too reluctant to use it up.
Lin Si looked disappointed, “That’s really too bad.”
“Your family makes skincare products, do you really need to feel so bad about it?” Su Mian couldn’t make sense of it.
“Do you rember last ti you promoted your Nourishing Face Cream to , and I took a little from you?”
“Of course, I rember.”
That was all last year’s news. Afterwards, Lin Si didn’t ask further, and Su Mian had thought Lin Si also considered the Nourishing Face Cream given by Qiaoqiao as a non-branded product.
“At that ti, was I not suspicious that the Nourishing Face Cream was identical to a prototype researched by Qiaose Research Institute?”, Lin Si said excitedly, her eyes shining.
Su Mian nodded blankly, “Right, I rember, but I also said it wasn’t possible. The Nourishing Face Cream was brought back by my daughter from the countryside, how could it possibly be related to Qiaose Research Institute?”
Lin Si regretfully said, “You really look at pearls as if they’re re fish eyes. My brother is a researcher at Qiaose Research Institute. After taking a sample from you, I took it to my brother for testing. He had been out training with his ntor and only recently returned. And then…”
Su Mian, anxious, followed up, “And then what?”
Lin Si looked at Su Mian as though she was frustrated with her ignorance, “Then, my brother said that the Nourishing Face Cream you had is indeed a genuine product from their institute!”
“Wha-what? Could you repeat that, it’s a genuine product?” Su Mian looked bewildered.
“Yes, it’s true. This Nourishing Face Cream is an unsaleable product, supposedly made specifically for a particular person. How did you manage to get your hands on it? Did your daughter really give it to you?”
Su Mian inwardly scread, Yes, my daughter gave it to ! But how did Qiaoqiao get the Nourishing Face Cream from Qiaose Research Institute?
She couldn’t understand—since it was unsaleable, it must be very precious. What kind of place is Qiaose Research Institute, and even if you have connections and networks, they wouldn’t just give away sothing so valuable.
Getting it through backdoor ans was nearly impossible.
Lin Si continued questioning, “Mianmian, we’re such good friends, just tell , how did you manage to get it? My brother said, so far only Professor Qiao has taken two bottles away, do you know Professor Qiao?”
“How could I possibly know Professor Qiao,” Su Mian paused.
Two bottles, and Qiaoqiao had just given her two bottles…
With a sinking feeling, Su Mian thought of Lu Zhanxing’s car accident, how Qiaose and Qiao Xun had coincidentally appeared, could it be…
With her mind racing and her expression dazed, Su Mian said to Lin Si, “I have sothing to handle, I’ll leave first, let’s catch up another ti.”
“Ah…” Lin Si didn’t even have ti to stop Su Mian.
Su Mian returned to Qiao Yun and Lu Rui’s side, and Su Qingyan had already co out as well.
Su Mian didn’t pay attention to them, her expression sowhat strange as she stared at Qiao Yun, as if trying to see sothing in her.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Rui noticed Su Mian’s discomfort and asked her with concern, “Are you feeling unwell?”
“No.”
Su Mian had too many questions to ask. The words circulated on the tip of her tongue, and she chose to ask bluntly, “Qiaoqiao, I have a question for you. Can you tell mommy the truth?”
Qiao Yun didn’t hesitate and said, “Okay.”
Su Mian opened her mouth, choosing her words carefully, “It’s just, are you and the Qiao Family…”
“Su Qingyan!”
Su Mian hadn’t finished speaking when a voice filled with resentnt suddenly rose, attracting the attention of everyone at the venue.
Qiao Yun looked toward the sound, only to see a young man dressed in servants’ clothing next to Su Qingyan suddenly pulling out a knife and stabbing at Su Qingyan.
“If I can’t have a good life, neither can you!”
It was Song Li, who had been expelled from Qing University.
Nobody expected him to appear here, nor did they know how he had sneaked in. He even attempted a desperate move intended to bring mutual destruction with Su Qingyan.
Ye Miaoshan watched in horror as a man with a knife rushed toward Su Qingyan, and she scread out loud.
“Ah—”
The venue instantly turned into chaos.
Lu Rui and Su Mian were also startled, montarily unable to react.
Qiao Yun was not far from Su Qingyan, and in the confusion, she calmly and rationally reached out to pull Su Qingyan away but stumbled towards him instead.
Su Mian shouted loudly, “Qiaoqiao!”
In that mont, she unleashed all her strength and pulled Qiao Yun away.
The knife slid over Qiao Yun’s arm and viciously stabbed toward the unsuspecting Su Qingyan.
All of this happened too quickly, less than a few seconds in total, yet Su Mian felt as if a century had passed.
She held Qiao Yun tightly, not yet asking her if she was hurt.
Suddenly, she heard Ye Miaoshan’s frantic scream.
“Qingyan!”
Su Qingyan’s ears buzzed, and he touched his abdon with his hand, lifting it to see a hand full of blood.
Song Li laughed sinisterly, like a madman: “It’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be living such a miserable life. Why should you have all the glory! Go die, go die, go die!”
Su Qingyan, despite being injured, responded with a calm taunt to Song Li: “Trash should go to the recycling bin.”
Song Li was enraged, but before he could do anything else, security quickly subdued him.
Qiao Yun looked toward the panic-stricken Ye Miaoshan, who didn’t know what to do, her eyes deep with emotion.
…
A few minutes later.
Su Qingyan was rushed to the nearest Shengqiao Hospital and taken directly to the ergency room.
Upon receiving the news, Lu Jingzhi hurried over. When he heard Qiao Yun had nearly been involved, for the first ti in a long while he took a firm stance, insisting Qiao Yun get examined.
