Luo Qiao pulled her inside, "Don’t worry, we don’t need to do it ourselves. To deal with soone like Zhao Jianing, you have to use so tactics. She’s like a cockroach in the gutter, disgusting."
Gu Qianru, being straightforward, agreed, "Exactly, she’s really annoying. Coming to borrow money and being so self-righteous about it, even threatening to kneel at the factory gate if we don’t lend it to her. Isn’t that just being a scoundrel?"
Luo Qiao brewed a pot of tea, "Co, co, co, sit down. Getting angry makes you age faster. It’s not worth getting upset over others."
She poured a cup of tea and handed it to Gu Qianru, "What does my dad an by this?"
Gu Qianru said angrily, "Seeing Zhao Jianing in tears made him a bit soft-hearted. I understand him; after all, they raised Zhao Jianing for fifteen years. But Zhao Jianing easily asks for eighty thousand yuan and finally resorts to threats, which I can’t accept.
So in this matter, if your dad dares to intervene, I’ll definitely distance myself from him. She’s done so many things wrong to you, and just because she’s not doing well now, doesn’t an she can be forgiven. Her current situation is not caused by others, but by her own choices, no one forced her."
Luo Qiao nodded, "This ti, I’m with you. If my dad really helps Zhao Jianing, that ans he’s choosing to cut ties with the five of us, or at least with . I won’t have any more interactions with him in the future.
You’re right, just because soone is living miserably doesn’t an they deserve forgiveness. If that were the case, society wouldn’t function. Why bother learning about propriety and integrity? Everyone would just play the pity card."
Just as Luo Haotian was returning ho from work, he overheard this. Any pity he had for Zhao Jianing was gone. If he lost his daughter and his love for her, not just them but his sons might not talk to him either.
He couldn’t, nor did he want to, lose them. The life he was living now was exactly what he wanted, and no one was going to ruin it.
So he turned around and left, went back to the factory, made a call to handle things, and then returned ho.
As he entered the courtyard, he shouted, "Honey, I’m back. Is our daughter back?"
Gu Qianru ignored him with a cold face.
Luo Haotian entered and saw his daughter, "Qiaoqiao, I saw your car."
Luo Qiao, lacking her usual warmth, said plainly, "I ca to bring you so oil tea, but mom just said you might actually need it."
Hearing this, Luo Haotian felt a wave of sadness, relieved that he hadn’t done anything wrong; otherwise, he might have returned to how things were before.
Seeing Luo Haotian in a daze, Luo Qiao added fuel to the fire, "Mom, Stone’s family went back to live with Grandfather’s for a few days."
Knowing about Fengfeng’s situation, Gu Qianru wasn’t surprised, "Did the Ning Family co and cause trouble?"
Luo Qiao sipped her tea, "Not just the Ning Family, the day I went over, the family of the driver from the Valve Factory who helped Sun Yu also ca to plead. So I let them stay with the Gu family to avoid trouble."
After finishing, she glanced at Luo Haotian, "Auntie Tang said she wanted company anyway, she’s usually quite lonely."
Upon hearing this, Luo Haotian glared at his daughter and quickly went to sit beside Gu Qianru, expressing his stance, "Qianru, I think you’re right, so things are beyond our control."
Gu Qianru didn’t fully trust him, "Have you really thought it through, or are you just trying to placate ?"
Luo Haotian coughed lightly, "Yesterday, she ca begging, crying so sorrowfully. I thought, since we could afford it, why not lend it to her this ti? Even if she didn’t repay, surely she wouldn’t have the face to co begging again. I just wanted to buy so peace with money.
But now I’ve figured it out. If we give in once, she might get used to it, and then it’ll be even harder to shake her off. Don’t worry, I’ll have soone take care of it. I was wrong before."
Seeing his sincerity, Gu Qianru let the matter drop.
Luo Qiao didn’t stay much longer. Seeing them reconcile, she got up to leave.
Gu Qianru urged, "Why don’t you stay and have dinner before you go?"
Luo Qiao waved her hand, "No, I need to pick up the kids anyway."
Seeing his daughter put on her coat, Luo Haotian finally said, "Yichen is likely to be busy lately, co ho early and don’t stay out too late, it’s not safe."
Pausing her hand on the zipper, Luo Qiao thought to herself, "Indeed, my old man is sothing, he probably has another identity. Otherwise, how would he know about this?"
She smiled faintly, "Okay, I know."
The couple walked her to the small square, watched her drive away, and then returned ho.
Gu Qianru looked up, "Luo Haotian, why did you change your mind? You wouldn’t have overheard my conversation with Qiaoqiao, would you?"
Surprised his wife knew he had gone back, Luo Haotian said, "Hearing what you both said, I felt a chill. How did you know I went back?"
Gu Qianru thought to herself, you ca back fifteen minutes later than usual today, and although I heard soone enter the courtyard, no one ca inside for a long ti. But she kept silent and just quickened her pace ho.
