Rebirth: Jiaojiao is delicate in public, but ruthless in private.

Everyone: Five hundred yuan!

"Qiao Chengyi, this is unethical of you! Seventy or eighty yuan a month, nearly a thousand yuan a year, and it's been more than ten years, that's at least ten thousand yuan, and now you're still clinging to five hundred yuan in compensation?"

"Exactly, we can't really let a young girl go north penniless, can we?"

"They really think they're so good to their niece. I think they're a heartless family."

The Qiao family was caught off guard by the sudden scolding, but they couldn't refute it and could only watch helplessly as Qiao Ruan looked like she was about to cry.

Uncle Qiao said awkwardly, "Who said I wouldn't give it to you? I just forgot for a moment, I forgot..."

His aunt secretly pinched him. Five hundred yuan! You really want to give it to him? She wouldn't be willing to part with it.

What could Uncle Qiao do? He couldn't bring himself to swallow his niece's living expenses in front of him after all these years.

"Ruanruan, here, take this money. Your uncle will give you another three hundred. When you go to the Fu family, you must behave well." He counted out a sum of money and handed it to Qiao Ruan.

Qiao Ruan accepted it without hesitation. In her previous life, she was so confused that she forgot about it, and the money was embezzled by the Qiao family!

In this lifetime, don't even think about taking a single penny from her!

She took the money and walked up to Fu Hanchen. "I'm all better now, let's go."

Fu Hanchen stared at her without saying a word. The pitiful appearance she had just made in front of Qiao Family Village, the feigned grievances and timely tears, might not be obvious to others, but they could not fool Fu Hanchen.

He hates scheming women the most. The one in front of him looks weak, but she is actually quick-witted and good at acting. She is not innocent at all.

Even if he believed that she should indeed receive the compensation, she could have done it in a more open and aboveboard way.

Rather than putting on a show!

Fu Hanchen didn't bother to pay any more attention to her and walked out.

The driver was very friendly and came over to ask, "Miss Qiao, where is your luggage? Let me help you put it in the car."

Luggage? Qiao Ruan shook her head. "I don't have any luggage."

The ridiculous thing is that she has lived in the Qiao family for so many years, but she doesn't even have a single piece of clothing of her own. She can only wear what Qiao Meng has left over.

"Let's go." She didn't look back and followed the driver outside.

Just like in her previous life, she left Qiao Family Village, but in this life, she will definitely live a different one!

She should live a good life!

Once in the car, Qiao Ruan glanced uncomfortably at the man next to her.

The back seat of the jeep was spacious, but the man was tall and had long legs, taking up a lot of space. To make matters worse, he had a cold face and looked like he didn't want to be approached.

He was the one who picked her up in her past life, but she was timid and didn't dare to look at him too much. Later, he left her at the Fu family's place and left.

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Ruan looked at him earnestly and said from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you for coming all this way to pick me up."

Trying to get close to him? Seduce him? Fu Hanchen glanced at her coldly, and seeing her obedient appearance, he couldn't help but tease her: "Miss Qiao is quite impressive."

Ok?

"His father passed away, and he was able to accept his situation so quickly and live a good life. That is admirable."

He was mocking her.

Qiao Ruan suddenly tugged at her lips, revealing a faint smile, "My father once said that for a man to die on his own battlefield is the highest honor and his final resting place."

“My father chose the path he chose, and I respect and admire him. Although I haven’t seen him for many years, he lives in my heart.”

After speaking frankly, Qiao Ruan turned her head away from him. She had figured it out: this man didn't like her, so there was no need for her to try to win him over.

I originally wanted to get along amicably, but since things have come to this, let's just forget about it.

Fu Hanchen, on the other hand, stared thoughtfully at her profile as she looked out the window. Her puffed-up cheeks clearly showed a hint of anger.
