Chapter 328: Chapter 328: An Accident That Erased Chapter 328: Chapter 328: An Accident That Erased Luo Qiao heard this and couldn’t help but be stunned, then she ca back to her senses and asked, “Is it the military unit not far from Shang Chaoyang Commune?”
Lu Yichen replied, “Yeah, that person said the incident caused quite a stir yesterday.”
Luo Qiao carefully recalled the plot of the book, not rembering such an event, and said, “Zhao Jianing really knows how to make a fuss, but she wouldn’t have gone to the military to look for the Zhang Family, would she?”
Lu Yichen asked, “Do you know soone from the Zhang Family?”
Luo Qiao sighed, “More than just know them, the Zhang Family was quite close to my own father back in the day. When I was born, they were bustling about, helping out. It’s just a pity that they ended up losing by accident.”
After saying that, she even started to laugh.
Lu Yichen now understood, and he instantly felt uncomfortable. The man this morning had not made things clear, only ntioning that Zhao Jianing had gone to the military, and rumors flew that it was to seek out her betrothed child-fiancé.
So that would an the Zhao Family definitely wouldn’t have betrothed her to anyone, which implies that the child-fiancé they were talking about was Luo Qiao’s. Realizing this, his mood soured instantly.
As he ca to this conclusion, so did Luo Qiao. She hadn’t expected Zhao Jianing to stoop so low; even this could be exploited by her. She really wished her good luck in her audacity.
Soon Luo Qiao learned the truth of the matter. That day when she went back to the school to get her report card, she ran into Zhang Xiao, who was waiting at the school gates.
Seeing Luo Qiao approaching, Zhang Xiao quickly walked up to her and grabbed her, saying, “I’ve been waiting for you.”
Luo Qiao knew what she was about to say just from seeing Zhang Xiao and asked indifferently, “Why did you co so early today?”
Zhang Xiao looked around and pulled her to the side, whispering, “That Zhao Jianing ca to our military compound a few days ago and found my house.”
Luo Qiao didn’t say anything, just waited there for Zhang Xiao to continue. Zhang Xiao went on, “Aren’t you curious about why she ca to find us?”
Luo Qiao smiled and replied, “Isn’t that why I’m waiting for you to go on?”
Zhang Xiao took a deep breath, “You don’t know how disgusting that person is, she ca to our place and said… ugh, I’m embarrassed even to repeat it.”
Luo Qiao chuckled, “If you don’t tell , I’ll have to leave. The bell is about to ring.”
Only then did Zhang Xiao grimly say, “She claid to be betrothed to my brother as a child, which is absurd. If such an arrangent existed, it would be with you, not her. She’s got so nerve.”
Luo Qiao responded calmly, “You shouldn’t spread such talk, and I will pretend I never heard it.”
Zhang Xiao hurriedly said, “I’m just so annoyed, I won’t say it again in the future. I apologize to you; please don’t be mad at .”
Seeing that Luo Qiao wasn’t angry, Zhang Xiao continued, “She made a big scene at our place, claiming she’s betrothed to my brother, and now she’s in trouble and seeking our family’s help. It got so noisy that all the neighbors ca to watch, totally embarrassing.”
Luo Qiao inquired, “And then what happened?”
Zhang Xiao blurted, “Aren’t you angry?”
Luo Qiao replied dispassionately, “Why should I be angry? What does this have to do with ?”
Zhang Xiao gave Luo Qiao a thumbs up, “She’s still riding on your family’s coattails, even trying to impersonate you. You really are magnanimous.”
With a laugh, Luo Qiao said, “She’s digging her own grave, only making herself look more foolish. I suppose she had no other choice at the end of her rope. But how did she know about your family?”
Zhang Xiao fud, “It was your birth mother who tipped her off. I guess she used to look down on my brother when she was in Capital City. He visited Capital City several tis, and she never ntioned the betrothal. Now that she’s back in Qingshan Village, she ca directly to us. My brother would never agree to it.”
Luo Qiao suggested, “The bell is about to ring; let’s head to the classroom.”
As expected, Luo Qiao remained the top student in her grade for the entire year, which sort of dismayed her classmates. They had given it their all, and yet they still couldn’t beat soone who had taken a long leave of absence.
Xiao Ya said to Luo Qiao mockingly, “Qiaoqiao, you’re really thrashing our entire grade. How do you expect us to face this?” She even mid the action of hanging herself by the neck.
Luo Qiao replied, “I had already studied this material before, so don’t let it get to you.”
Teacher Ge announced the final results and encouraged everyone to keep up the good work next sester. After reminding the students about what to pay attention to during the vacation, he finally declared the holiday started.
