Announced divorce, madly criticized Ling Shaochang for kneeling down

The sports car stopped by the roadside. Qiao Ruyi frowned and asked, "Aunt Chen, have you been waiting for me?"

"Yes, I've been waiting for you." Chen Juan choked up and said, "You were still young when Li Ling kicked me out of the Qiao Mansion. At that time, I couldn't tell you much about your mother. Later, you went abroad. I had no way to contact you, and I didn't dare to go to the Qiao Mansion to look for you..."

Speaking of this, Chen Juan burst into tears, "I have finally waited for you."

Qiao Ruyi immediately grasped the key point, "What about my mother?"

When she mentioned Yin Rufang, her eyes became red. "Aunt Chen, can you tell me why my mother committed suicide?"

This was a question that had troubled her for fifteen years. No matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't understand why her mother, who was always gentle, calm and extremely stable, would suddenly commit suicide by cutting her wrists.

This was even more unacceptable to her than an accident.

"I don't know why Madam was so depressed back then."

That day fifteen years ago was still vivid in her mind. Chen Juan recounted the story truthfully, "That afternoon, Madam received a phone call. She seemed upset, but it didn't seem like she had argued with Mr. Qiao. That afternoon, she locked herself in her room arranging flowers. We didn't dare disturb her, but that afternoon, Madam... just so suddenly..."

The following words were drowned out by Chen Juan's crying.

"Answered the phone?"

Qiao Ruyi frowned, clutching the phone tightly in her hand, her eyes red as she asked, "Who's calling?"

Chen Juan sobbed, "I don't know. Mr. Qiao didn't find out either. Later, he didn't let us talk about it anymore."

Qiao Ruyi gripped the steering wheel tightly with one hand. "Aunt Chen, you also think there's something fishy about my mother's death, right?"

"I didn't think much about it originally, but when Li Ling suddenly came to see me a while ago, I couldn't help but think about it more."

Chen Juan said, recalling the scene when Li Ling came to see her that day -

In the coffee shop, Li Ling elegantly picked up the coffee and took a sip.

Chen Juan sat opposite her and looked at her carefully.

Chen Juan said, "Li Ling, after all these years, what do you want to see me about?"

Li Ling put down her coffee and said with a smile, "Don't you want to see how you're doing after leaving the Qiao Mansion?"

"Don't be so hypocritical. When you first entered the Qiao family, you drove away all the servants. Didn't you just see that we were all hired by the Madam? Did you go to such lengths to drive us away because you didn't like us?"

Chen Juan was indignant when she thought of what happened back then. "Miss Ruyi was so young back then, and her mother had just passed away less than a year ago, and you wanted to drive me away, Liling, what on earth were you thinking?"

"Chen Juan, who are you to talk to me?" Li Ling glanced at her with disdain. "Don't forget, I'm the mistress of the Qiao Mansion now. I have the final say in the entire Qiao Mansion."

She took a sip of coffee and asked straight to the point, "You've taken care of Qiao Ruyi for so many years, don't you want to know if she's doing well?"

When Qiao Ruyi's name was mentioned, Chen Juan was stunned. Looking at Li Ling's arrogant look, it didn't seem like she would treat Ruyi well.

She lowered her voice, "Li Ling, I accept it even if you kick me out. Ruyi's biological mother passed away early, so please don't bully her."

"Chen Juan, I promise you." Li Ling answered simply, "As long as you never appear in front of Qiao Ruyi, she will always be the eldest daughter of the Qiao Mansion, and I will always treat her as my own daughter."

Never appear in front of Qiao Ruyi again?

"Why?" Chen Juan asked.

Li Ling turned the jade ring in her hand with disdain, "Because I am now the mistress of the Qiao Mansion, I don't like all the old things in the Qiao Mansion."

She raised her eyes and stared at Chen Juan in front of her, "Including you."

......

Chen Juan told Qiao Ruyi everything about their meeting with Li Ling, and her eyes darkened slightly.

Li Ling has driven Aunt Chen out of the Qiao Mansion for more than ten years. As long as she is in the Qiao Mansion, Aunt Chen will never go back.

Then why did she suddenly find Aunt Chen and threaten her not to meet her?

Or is Li Ling afraid of something or hiding something?

Are you afraid that if Aunt Chen meets you, it will be bad for her?

Was it because she was jealous of her mother or because she felt guilty that she replaced all the servants in the Qiao Mansion so hastily?

"Aunt Chen, let's meet. When you return to Beijing, I'll pick you up at the airport."

There are some things she must figure out.

......

As soon as I entered the office and sat down, a cup of fragrant coffee was placed on the table.

No sugar, no milk, double concentrate.

Qiao Ruyi looked up and met Guan Mei's uneasy expression.

"Xiaomei, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Guan Mei stood in front of her, originally with her head down, but when she heard her voice, she raised her head and curled the corners of her mouth, "Sister Ruyi, I'll bring you coffee."

"Thank you."

Qiao Ruyi glanced at the coffee in front of her, opened the design draft and started drawing.

Guan Mei still stood there and didn't leave.

"Is there anything else?" Qiao Ruyi asked.

Guan Mei pursed her lips and asked, "Sister Ruyi, are you going to resign?"

Qiao Ruyi smiled softly, without stopping the drawing in her hand. "It's just a change of working environment, what's wrong with that?"

"Nothing, I hope Sister Ruyi's work goes smoothly." Guan Mei glanced at her design draft and asked, "Sister Ruyi, is this the new design draft you drew?"

"Oh, this?" Qiao Ruyi pointed to the drawing in her hand and said with a smile, "This is the unfinished design from our previous collaboration with LS Group. I plan to refine it and save it for the next project."

"Oh, then you go ahead and do your work. I'll be out first."

Qiao Ruyi watched her back as she walked out of the office, as if she saw the smart and well-behaved little assistant who used to be by her side.

She smiled silently and continued to perfect the several drafts she had already designed.

At this time, outside the office, Guan Mei received a text message on her mobile phone.

[Guan Mei, hurry up and get her design draft, we don't have much time.]

By the time get off work gets off work, most people in the company have left.

Until night fell, the huge company was so quiet that even the slightest footsteps seemed to be amplified several times.

There was no light on in the room, and a dark figure stood at the door of the design director's office.

He skillfully pressed the code on the door and then pushed it open and walked in.

As the lights in the office came on, the young girl's delicate face appeared under the light.

She quickly took out the design draft that Qiao Ruyi had drawn during the day from the drawer, then took out her mobile phone and quickly took a photo.

Only after she had photographed all the drawings did a smile of accomplishment appear on her pretty face.

Then restore the drawing to its original state and put it back in the original drawer, turn off the lights and close the door.

After the young girl left, a tall figure walked out from the corner.

The phone in my hand contains the video I just recorded.

She stood in the dark, feeling extremely complicated.
