Chapter 351: Chapter 351 She Actually Believed It Chapter 351: Chapter 351 She Actually Believed It After all, she had taken He Juanjuan out with her, and if anything happened to He Juanjuan, she couldn’t escape responsibility, or maybe she was just using her abilities to simply scare He Juanjuan?
That would make so sense.
She had indeed succeeded
in making He Juanjuan as neurotic as can be.
It’s just that Liu Ge probably didn’t expect He Juanjuan to take her hatred out on He Xuerong.
“Qiao Qingyu, what are you thinking? Say sothing, will you?”
“What do you want to say?”
“Say you believe , that I’m not just talking nonsense, that I’m not crazy, and I haven’t been having nightmares.”
“Would it help if I said that?” Qiao Qingyu asked indifferently.
Tears suddenly stread down He Juanjuan’s face, “Of course it would help. You’re not ; you don’t understand. As long as one person believes , I’ll know I’m not crazy.”
“…Please don’t cry; if your mom hears, she’ll think I’m bullying you,” Qiao Qingyu said helplessly.
“My mom doesn’t believe either,” He Juanjuan said with grievance.
“It’s been so long; whether or not she believes doesn’t really matter anymore.”
“I know it doesn’t matter, but as long as one person believes, I’m not afraid anymore.”
As she spoke, He Juanjuan suddenly yanked open the collar of her turtleneck sweater and took out several amulets, “I don’t have nightmares as frequently as before. It used to be every two or three days, but now, not even once in a couple of months.”
Qiao Qingyu was sowhat at a loss watching her wear so many amulets around her neck. It was probably just for a sense of security, but what could she say? Wearing them for so long, they naturally co to carry a sense of spirit.
“Qiao Qingyu, Liu Ge is definitely no good, she’s too evil. You must never let her into your house.”
“Given what you’ve said, I really do need to be more cautious.”
He Juanjuan’s eyes brightened, and she clenched her fists, parading excitedly around the room, “Yes, yes, yes, you have to be more cautious. That woman is ruthless.”
This was sothing Qiao Qingyu could definitely agree with; despite Liu Ge’s beautiful and gentle appearance and her soft-spoken manner, her heart was both cold and hard.
When lunchti ca, ng Siqi ca downstairs, only to find that He Juanjuan had also co down.
ng Siqi sharply noticed sothing different about her daughter. How to put it? It was hard to describe.
In any case, she had changed.
She looked gratefully at her son, He Xiuyu.
He Xiuyu, her youngest son, was the best gift heaven had given her.
Regardless of what happened, it had to be acknowledged that He Juanjuan and He Xuerong shared a close blood relationship.
So, with no psychological burden, He Juanjuan began to make various attempts to appease He Xuerong.
Being able to bend or stand tall was indeed comndable.
But no matter whether she felt guilty or not, she did still have a trace of humanity.
It would be enough to get safely through these few days; after all, she wouldn’t have much to do with He Xuerong in the future.
In the afternoon, He Xiuyu took Qiao Qingyu to the best restaurant in the West District.
The decor here was sowhat different from Lan Jianqing’s restaurant.
First of all, it was very quiet and not just anyone could co in, and there was no need for any mbership card.
Here, entrance was determined by one’s face.
Of course, it wasn’t facial recognition like in the future but more about the person themself.
Those who co here to dine are all part of a small circle from the West District.
Even though these people are smiling, they each maintain their own distinct aura.
The enthusiastic server led the two to a private room, opened the door, and everyone inside was already there. Seeing He Xiuyu and Qiao Qingyu appear at the entrance, everyone seated at the table rose to their feet.
A quick glance revealed that aside from Yuan Hengzhi, Qiao Qingyu naturally didn’t recognize anyone else. There were a total of seven people, four n and two won.
Along with the two of them, a large table was just filled.
The table wasn’t yet served with hot dishes; only beautifully arranged cold platters and pastries were present.
The pastries were freshly baked, emitting a faint aroma of cake upon entering the room.
This was also the first ti He Xiuyu had introduced Qiao Qingyu to his closest friends.
He was very proud, of course, but he was also very low-key, introducing his several good friends to Qiao Qingyu with a calm expression and a gentle voice.
He briefly ntioned where they worked.
Really, they were from all walks of life.
One of them even worked for the Agricultural Departnt.
Qiao Qingyu greeted this girl with particularly warm enthusiasm.
Although the girl’s emotions were sowhat delicate, she hid it very well.
She also radiated trendous goodwill towards Qiao Qingyu.
There was no overt one-upmanship or face-slapping here; everyone who mixed in this circle was cunning. How could they possibly engage in such foolish antics?
To put it crudely, even beating a dog requires looking at its owner.
Furthermore, even though He Xiuyu was very understated, these people could see that Qiao Qingyu was soone He Xiuyu held in high regard.
So everyone was all smiles, offering words that the other wanted to hear.
Not to ntion, even though Qiao Qingyu grew up in the countryside, she managed to pick up her studies through self-learning and beca the top scholar in humanities in West City.
Even in West City, where talent abounds, becoming a top scholar was no easy feat.
Her scores could have gotten her into the best university in Beijing.
But for Xichuan’s sand control and afforestation efforts, she stayed in a humble local agricultural college. Not to ntion anything else, just her vision alone was sothing they respected, let alone Qiao Qingyu’s grandfather’s formidable abilities.
Thus, the al was naturally filled with joy for both guests and host.
The restaurant’s food was also delicious, a taste Qiao Qingyu had never experienced before; she thought about whether to take Rongrong for a al before leaving.
Then, Qiao Qingyu exchanged contact information with Qin Duo, the lady from the Agricultural Departnt. As for the rest, He Xiuyu already had their details.
On the way ho that evening, Qiao Qingyu told He Xiuyu about Liu Ge’s matter.
He Xiuyu’s motion of drinking water paused, and then he set the teacup down on the table beside him.
“Now that you ntion it, two things seem to be connected,” he said softly after pondering for a mont.
“What things?”
“Do you rember when Liu Ge went to the base to visit Rongrong?”
“Of course.”
“When they left the base, their car got stuck in a snow pit, and a driver passing by the base found them—although Wu Hong had been away for a while because when the base driver found him, he wasn’t in the car.”
“Where did he go?”
“Not far from where their accident happened, there should be a small village called Xiwatun.”
“Xiwatun, have you been there?”
He Xiuyu shook his head, “I haven’t been there, but I’ll have Director Lin investigate it after we return.”
