Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

She grew increasingly displeased with her son, who was so uncouth. He was indeed raised in the countryside; he was petty about such trivial matters and couldn't compare to Qiao Ting.

Qiao Yu'an lowered his head, as if he had done something wrong, but still said in a muffled voice, "But, I just want my parents to see their biological son."

These words seemed to remind everyone that Qiao Ting was not their biological child; it was Qiao Yu'an.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Mr. Qiao said, "That's true, Xiaoting. They are your biological parents after all. Find some time to visit them."

Qiao's mother objected to this, saying angrily, "How can this be? That's the countryside. Tingting has been pampered since she was little. How can she go to a place like that?"

"They've never raised Tingting for even a single day, so why should we go after them?"

Thinking of the grassy smell she had just caught on Qiao Yu'an, she felt disgusted. What kind of nice place could the countryside be? It must be a place where people suffer in the fields.

Tingting is the child she raised herself, how could she go to such a place to suffer?

Qiao Yu'an then spoke up: "That's true. Unlike me, Brother Ting has been used to hardship since childhood."

Upon hearing this, Qiao's mother remembered that Qiao Yu'an had grown up there, and for a moment she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say.

But she didn't cause any of this, so we can't blame her, can we?

Mr. Qiao frowned as he looked at his wife, thinking that she had spoken without thinking today.

But he didn't refute what she said. Qiao Ting had been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, and he also loved this son very much.

Even if someone isn't particularly good-looking or tall, they can still make up for it with their clothing and demeanor.

On the other hand, Qiao Yu'an has a handsome face and is tall, but the way he eats with such gusto is just too unrestrained; it would be embarrassing to take him out in public.

Qiao Yu'an had just arrived today, so he didn't know what to say. He was already thinking about finding an etiquette teacher to teach him.

He wiped his mouth, stood up and walked out: "I have some things to take care of at the company."

Only after seeing him leave did Qiao Ting relax.

Qiao's father was not as easy to fool as Qiao's mother. Ever since she learned that she was not his biological child, Qiao Ting could clearly feel that he was not as nice to her as before.

This was not what he wanted to see. Qiao Ting only hated that he wasn't a biological child of the Qiao family.

I still hate that Qiao Yu'an was found and brought back. It's all too coincidental. I wonder who's behind it.

The nurse who told the Qiao family that Qiao Ting wasn't their biological daughter can no longer be found.

Qiao Ting didn't know who had sent the other party; she just felt that it all seemed like a dream and was unreal.

After that, Qiao's father secretly did a paternity test and quietly brought Qiao Yu'an back.

By the time Qiao Ting and her mother found out, Qiao's father had already sent people to pick up Qiao Yu'an, and it was too late for them to stop him.

Fortunately, Qiao's mother was foolish enough that as long as he pretended to be pitiful, she would speak up for him, and he could even continue to live in the Qiao family as the second young master.

As expected, when Qiao's mother saw that Qiao Ting looked unwell, she immediately comforted her, "Tingting, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Your face is so pale."

Qiao Ting shook her head, still holding the crab she had peeled for Qiao Yu'an: "It's okay, Mom. Dad won't send me away, will he? Mom, if I leave, you must take good care of yourself..."

As he spoke, Qiao Ting's voice became choked with sobs, as if someone was forcing him to leave.

"What nonsense are you talking about? No one can kick you out. This is your home. You're the child I raised. How can I let you leave?"

"But...but..."

Qiao Ting seemed unable to continue speaking, and then secretly glanced at Qiao Yu'an.

Seeing his reaction, Qiao's mother instantly became angry. She took the crab from Qiao Ting's hand and said:

"No buts. From now on, just tell everyone that Yu'an was lost when he was little. We already have three children in our family. In short, you are my biological child."

After saying that, Qiao's mother looked at Qiao Yu'an: "Yu'an, you don't have any objections, do you? Your parents didn't know about this all these years. You're not an abandoned child. This can't be blamed on me, and it certainly can't be blamed on Tingting."

Qiao Yu'an wanted to applaud them for what they said, but he didn't hold back.

"It's not your fault, it's mine. I climbed over there myself to switch places with Qiao Ting, okay?"

"What kind of attitude is this? Qiao Yu'an, I didn't want to argue with you when you first came back, but what about you? Is it so hard to peel a crab? Why do you have to ask Tingting to help you?" Qiao's mother completely dropped the pretense and spoke loudly to Qiao Yu'an.

Qiao Yu'an was stunned. He knew perfectly well that his mother didn't love him; he had known that in his past life.

But seeing her get angry at me like this because of Qiao Ting still makes my heart ache.

He was just an extrovert, not stupid. He could naturally tell that no one in the family liked him and didn't welcome his arrival.

Previously, he had hoped that all of this was just them being used by Jodin, and that they might not be bad people, but were simply being used by Jodin.

But now it seems...

Qiao Yu'an looked at the crabs that his mother had thrown on the table and said helplessly, "But he was the one who offered to peel them for me. I never asked him to."

Mrs. Qiao was speechless. She moved her mouth, feeling extremely angry, but didn't know what to say.

As if she were amused by her own anger, she nodded and said, "Alright, alright, it was my fault. Of course, I've never raised you for a single day, so how dare I lecture you?"

After saying that, she pulled up Qiao Ting, whose face was full of grievances: "Don't cry, Mom will take you out to eat."

After saying that, the two of them left.

In the huge restaurant, only Qiao Yu'an remained, facing a table full of delicious food.

The servants around looked at each other, not daring to go over and take the things away without permission.

Qiao Yu'an took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

"Could you come over and help me peel this crab?"

Qiao Yu'an looked at the maids standing there, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I really don't know how..."

This is true. He used to live on the grasslands, eating meat and drinking wine, and he had never eaten seafood before.

When he first came here in his previous life, he didn't understand anything either. In order to leave a good impression on his parents, he only dared to eat the dishes that didn't require him to cook.

He didn't want to compromise himself in this life; he wanted to try these beautiful things.

The maids knew that this was the young master of the house. No matter how much the Qiao family made a fuss earlier, it was the master's business. They didn't want to take sides, and they certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to oppose the young master.

Only a fool would do something so thankless and potentially dangerous that they could lose their job.

So, the group quickly went to the dining table and began peeling lobsters and crabs for the young master.

Then, the more I looked at him, the more I realized how handsome the young master was; he was even more handsome than the eldest young master.

Some of the maids couldn't help but smile and talk to the young master, teaching him how to peel shrimp.

Qiao Yu'an was studying diligently, completely unaware that someone was standing at the door.
