Announced divorce, madly criticized Ling Shaochang for kneeling down

"Qiao Ruyi, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Shut up!" Qiao He interrupted Li Ling harshly, "How dare you talk like that!"

He pointed at Li Ling, who was slumped on the sofa, in frustration. "You've framed Ruyi time and time again, causing unrest in the entire Qiao Mansion. What on earth are you doing?! If you're tired of staying here, just go back to your hometown in the countryside!"

When Li Ling heard this, her face turned pale.

Qiao He is going to kick her out!

"Old Qiao! I was wrong!" She hurriedly got down from the sofa, her legs and feet weak as she fell to the ground. She didn't care about her dignity at all, and crawled to Qiao He's legs with her hands and feet, grabbing his trouser legs. "Old Qiao, you can't kick me out. I raised Ruyuan and gave birth to Xile for you over the years. Even if I didn't have any merits, I worked hard. You can't just kick me out like this!"

She performed the sad drama very well, but Qiao Ruyi didn't like watching it.

"Uh--"

She suddenly frowned, raised her hand to touch her temple, and her face looked a little painful.

Qiao He saw that something was wrong with her, and without caring about Li Ling, he quickly asked her, "Ruyi, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Ruyi frowned and rubbed his temples. "Dad, I might have been too stimulated just now. My head hurts so much now. I'm afraid I'll get sick again soon. I want to go back first."

"Okay, okay!" Qiao He said as he stepped forward and wanted to raise his hand to touch her head, but Qiao Ruyi dodged him.

Qiao He looked even more guilty, "Ruyi, today Dad is sorry for you, I——"

"Dad, you saw the injustice I suffered today." Qiao Ruyi raised her eyes, tears in her eyes. "You even said you would beat me to death. It really makes me sad."

Qiao He quickly said, "Dad is wrong! Dad will definitely make it up to you!"

Qiao Ruyi shook her head. "Actually, I can't blame you entirely. I know you're just too angry."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Ling, who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy. "If you want to blame someone, blame me for always displeasing Aunt Li. My birth was a mistake to her, so she tried every possible way to get me away from you."

"Qiao Ruyi, you are so vicious! You——"

Qiao He suddenly raised his foot and kicked her, "Shut up!"

Li Ling fell to the ground after being kicked, tears streaming down her face.

This was the first time in all these years that Qiao He kicked her.

He was really angry.

"Ruyi." Qiao He looked at Qiao Ruyi kindly, "Dad promises you that I will never doubt you or distrust you for no reason again. No one can use these despicable means to drive you away from Dad again."

Qiao Ruyi nodded with tears in her eyes. "Dad, I won't get involved in your affairs with Aunt Li. I know you will definitely give me an explanation, right?"

"Of course." Qiao He promised her, "Dad will definitely not let you suffer in vain regarding what happened today."

Qiao Ruyi rubbed his head in pain and said, "Then I'll go back first."

As soon as she reached the door, Qiao Ruyi heard Li Ling's crying and begging for mercy and Qiao He's furious voice through the closed study door.

She put down her hand that was rubbing her temple and smiled with the corners of her lips curled up.

The louder the noise inside, the bigger her smile became.

She went downstairs and entered the side room. Yin Rufang's tablet was spotless and the fruit in front of it was fresh.

She chuckled and offered incense to Yin Rufang.

Looking at the black and white photo of her smiling face, she spoke softly.

"Mom, I will take back everything that belongs to you. There's still a long time to go, and I have plenty of time to let them play slowly."

She raised her hand and touched the smiling face in the photo. "But the Qiao Mansion will never be peaceful again. Just turn a blind eye."

......

The light purple sports car drove out of Qiao Mansion and stopped on the side of the road after passing two traffic lights.

Qiao Ruyi picked up her cell phone and made a call.

The other end seemed busy and no one answered after the phone rang several times. Just when she was about to hang up, the other party picked up.

"As one wishes?"

The other person's voice was clear and gentle.

"Yi Mu." Qiao Ruyi smiled faintly, "You have helped me a lot again, thank you."

"It's my duty." Cheng Yimu said gently, "When you asked me to do your medical records, I guessed that this day would come, so I gave you a few more instructions."

Director Wang, whom Li Ling met, happened to know Cheng Yi Mu, so as soon as Li Ling found her, she told Cheng Yi Mu about this matter, and this was how they got evidence of Li Ling's mischief.

Listening to Cheng Yimu's gentle tone, Qiao Ruyi felt a little apologetic.

She knew what Cheng Yimu thought of her, but she couldn't respond to him and had asked him for help several times, which made her feel guilty no matter how she thought about it.

"Yimu, I—"

"Ruyi, you don't have to say anything." Cheng Yimu seemed to guess what she was going to say and interrupted her, "It's too early to say some things now. I'm an adult and I know what I'm doing. I'm happy that you need my help. Whenever you need my help in the future, I'll be here."

Qiao Ruyi took a deep breath and said, "Thank you."

At this moment, the two words "thank you" contain thousands of words.

......

After hanging up the phone and just about to drive to LS Group, the phone rang again.

Qiao Ruyi picked up the phone and saw an unfamiliar number.

As soon as I picked up the phone, a familiar female voice came over.

"Hello, is this Ruyi? I'm Xu Zhaozhao."

"It's me." Qiao Ruyi smiled when she heard the other person's voice. "What's wrong, Zhao Zhao?"

"Help me, Ruyi!" Xu Zhaozhao was helpless and anxious on the other end of the phone. "Are you in the company now?"

"I'm outside and just about to go back to the company."

"That's perfect." Xu Zhaozhao seemed relieved on the other end of the line. "Look, your project is almost ready. Ling Che asked me to talk to a real estate client. That will make it easier to connect with your fashion show."

At this point, Xu Zhaozhao felt a headache. "I made an appointment with Mr. Wan from Wanqing Real Estate yesterday for a meeting at 4 o'clock this afternoon, but I'm meeting an important client outside right now, so our schedules just happened to clash, and I can't break Mr. Wan's appointment."

Qiao Ruyi understood what she meant. Xu Zhaozhao wanted her to meet Mr. Wan on her behalf.

"Ye Qing is in charge of this project." Qiao Ruyi said, "It would be more appropriate to let Ye Qing go."

"I thought so too, but Ye Qing has a very important meeting to attend later."

Xu Zhaozhao softened her tone over the phone, even sounding a bit coquettish. "Besides you and Ye Qing, there's no one more suitable in the entire project department. You're especially knowledgeable about this project. Ruyi, please help me out and negotiate for me."

Xu Zhaozhao was worried she would feel pressured, so she added, "It doesn't matter whether we can reach an agreement or not. I'll take the blame for you in front of Ling Che. It would be really unreasonable if you didn't show up."

Now that things had come to this, Qiao Ruyi couldn't refuse any longer. She glanced at the time and saw that it was almost the agreed time. "Okay, I'll go over now."

"Thank you, Ruyi! I really appreciate you so much!"
