CEO's Runaway Lover

Chapter 72, Mayor Qiao's Confession "Mom, I don't know how to tell you. I am your son, and you gave me life. However, without Wan Xiaoxuan, I really would rather die than live. I know you did that, and I don't blame you, but I hope it's the last time."

Mrs. Qiao took a step back, life would be worse than death, is it that serious?

"I know you don't like Rouyi, and I can't help it. I can force you to marry her, but I can't force you to like her. However, you can like anyone, but you can't like that Wan Xiaoxuan." Mrs. Qiao resolutely She said sharply that she did not expect that her son, whom she had always been proud of, would tell her that his life would be worse than death for a woman.

"Why? It's because she is that person's woman, but that person doesn't love her. She is just his reproductive tool. Once a child is born, she has nothing to do with him." Qiao He explained.

"If I say no, I can't, no matter whether she is someone else's woman or not, she just can't." Mrs. Qiao was also angry, and she told Qiao He more firmly, and then left there angrily.

Qiao He watched his mother leave and sighed helplessly.He knew that it would be difficult to persuade his mother to accept Xiaoxuan.However, I just can't figure out why my mother's attitude is so tough, which has never been done to him before.

He hurriedly took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and wanted to go to the hotel to find Xiaoxuan quickly.But when he came downstairs, he met his father, and Qiao He respectfully called his father.

Mayor Qiao nodded, and then said, "Come out with me, I have something to tell you."

"But I..."

"I know you have something to do, but it's not too late. Go out with me, and I'll tell you why your mother hates Wan Xiaoxuan."

"Okay," Qiao He nodded, and followed Mayor Qiao out of the house.

Fang Rouyi came out from another door, watched the father and son leave with vicious eyes, and then angrily walked to Mrs. Qiao's room.

Qiao He and his father came to the small river in the community, watching the scenery on both sides while walking.

After walking for a while, Qiao He couldn't help it anymore, and asked softly, "Father, you said you know the reason why Mom hates Xiaoxuan, what exactly is it?"

Mayor Qiao did not answer his words, but looked at the scenery on both sides, and said: "We have lived here for so many years, but we have never noticed such a beautiful scenery. In fact, people are really strange, and they always feel far away. Where the scenery is the most beautiful, but always ignore the most beautiful scenery around you.”

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said: "You must be very surprised why I told you this. For so many years, our father and son have never had a good heart-to-heart talk. It's me who is not good at being a father. I want to apologize to you."

"No, Dad, I know you're busy, and I never blamed you." Qiao He turned his head away after speaking, how could he not blame you.When he was young, he saw other children going out to play with his father, and when he grew up, he saw other children of the same age interacting with his father affectionately, how sad he felt.

Mayor Qiao noticed the sadness in his eyes, and felt a dull pain in his heart.For so many years, he has been looking at the scenery in the distance that no longer exists, but he has ignored the most important scenery around him.

"Don't you want to know why your mother hates Wan Xiaoxuan so much? Look at this." Mayor Qiao took out a wallet from his arms, and Qiao He looked at the wallet suspiciously. He was sure that it wasn't the wallet that Dad often used , he has never seen.And, it looks like it was many years ago.

Mayor Qiao took out a photo from his wallet and handed it to Qiao He, who looked at it in his hand and opened his mouth in surprise.The woman in the photo looks so much like Wan Xiaoxuan, it's almost the same.However, he knew that she was not Wan Xiaoxuan, and her eyes were different from Wan Xiaoxuan's shrewdness and cleverness.

"Who is she?" Joe asked.

"Her name is Mo Feng, and she was originally a servant of your mother's house. After I met your mother, I went to your mother's house as a guest one day. I met her that day, and it was love at first sight." Mayor Qiao said Said, while seeming to recall the past days, a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Qiao He's eyes were a little jerky, he had never seen his father have such a happy expression.Now he knows why his mother hates Wan Xiaoxuan, this woman who looks like Wan Xiaoxuan has completely robbed his father's heart.

"But Xiaoxuan is innocent, she just looks like her."

"But your mother doesn't think so. She sees Wan Xiaoxuan as if she sees Mo Feng in front of her eyes. Not to mention her, even I feel this way too. Moreover, it's scary. Ever since Wan Xiaoxuan moved in In our family, I haven't had a good night's sleep. I believe that your mother is the same, and I can see her waking up from nightmares every day."

"Could it be that Mo Feng...is dead. Besides, it has something to do with her mother." Qiao He was shocked when he said his guess.He couldn't believe that his mother, who had always been timid, would have anything to do with human life.

"I don't know whether Mo Feng is dead or not, but he has indeed been dead for more than [-] years, at least in our opinion."

"Did Mom really do it?"

Mayor Qiao sighed and did not answer Qiao He’s question, but recalled: “At that time, I fell in love with Mo Feng. Of course your mother was very angry when she found out. It lowered her status very much, not to mention that I, a poor boy, let such a rich lady like her not love her, but fell in love with her maid. Her self-esteem couldn't bear this blow, so she found a I dismissed Mo Feng for a reason. But it gave me a chance to get close to Mo Feng more easily. From then on, whenever I had the opportunity, I would go to her and do anything for her.

However, I gradually discovered that I was just wishful thinking.Mo Feng doesn't like me, she even told me several times to tell me not to go to her again, and refused my help to her.However, I was young at that time, and young people always don't like to admit defeat.I still persist, because I believe that as long as I persist, I will be able to move her heart.

At that time, I was also very proud, thinking that I was outstanding, and even a wealthy daughter like your mother would be fascinated by me, let alone a small servant.It will be a matter of time before Mo Feng falls in love with me.

I did not overestimate myself, but underestimated Mo Feng.Because, she is not an ordinary servant at all, and her cleverness and dexterity are incomparable to many young ladies.On this point, Fang Rouyi's father also had the same insight as me. He also fell in love with Mo Feng. For Mo Feng, he even wanted to dissolve his marriage with his childhood sweetheart fiancee.

You know your mother's temper best. She has always been a very proud person. How could she allow this kind of thing to happen.So, she asked someone to kidnap Mo Feng, and then sank her to the bottom of the sea.I found out about it later, and your mother always thought I didn't know.In fact, I was the first to guess your mother as soon as Mo Feng had an accident, but I didn't say anything.Because the people who kidnapped Mo Feng also died for no reason.I'm very surprised, this must not be your mother's doing.She didn't have the scheming, the courage and the necessity.

So, I started to investigate this matter secretly.However, due to my limited ability, it is very difficult to check.Coincidentally, since Mo Feng disappeared, your mother has launched an offensive against me again, so I followed suit and agreed to do things with your mother.Of course, you also inherited your grandfather's huge family property and social status.Then I slowly got to where I am today. Needless to say, I have put in hard work and sweat, but the most important thing that supports me is to find out about Mo Feng. "

"What about now? Have you checked it out?" Qiao He suddenly felt a little nervous for some reason, vaguely feeling that this matter would have something to do with Wan Xiaoxuan.

Mayor Qiao was a little sad at this moment, he opened his mouth hesitantly, and finally said: "No, it's not easy to investigate this matter. However, I have figured it out now. I was young at that time, and I always thought that there would be A lot of suspense. Now that I think about it, it’s actually very simple. The only thing I’m sorry for is your mother. She did it because she loves me. Now seeing her suffer from such pain every day, I really feel sorry for you. It’s very hard. Over the years, I have cared too little for you, and I hope you can forgive me.”

"Father, do you know something?" Qiao He always felt that his father knew something, but he refused to say it.

"Really not, I just want to tell you. Your mother is not easy. Even if you did something wrong before, you did it because you love me. Now, it's the same. Everything you do is because You will only do it if you love you. You have to understand her and forgive her. I will persuade her about Wan Xiaoxuan again, but we cannot force her to accept it. As for whether you and Wan Xiaoxuan will have results in the future, It depends on your luck."

Qiao He nodded, seeing his father's flickering eyes, he was even more sure that his father must know something, but he couldn't tell him.
