Chapter 400

Qiao Xinying smiled with delight after seeing Qiao Ranxin take the initiative to admit her mistake.

The displeasure and resentment I felt earlier vanished in an instant.

Actually, she wasn't particularly angry about it. The reason her mother acted so perfectly in front of her was because she hoped that she would be just as outstanding in the future.

This is a very simple and easy-to-understand thing; she couldn't possibly not see her mother's good intentions.

However, her mother is clearly a lazy homebody, yet she insists on making her perform so well. She must have worked very hard all these years.

"I don't care about my mother's image collapsing, but you shouldn't have kept it from me for so long."

Qiao Xinying stirred the hot tea in her cup and tapped it lightly on the table. Actually, seeing her mother's most authentic side was more important than anything else.

A mother doesn't have to be exceptionally outstanding, but she must treat her child with genuine sincerity.

Because in the hearts of all children in the world, there is nothing more joyful than being able to truly connect with their mothers.

"I'm really surprised you're not angry."

Qiao Ranxin was also very puzzled by how quickly Xinying accepted reality.

You know, this child has always regarded herself as a role model, so why isn't this girl angry at all?

"Who would be angry with their mother, especially since you are doing it for my own good."

"I'm eighteen years old now, how could I be so immature as to throw a tantrum at you?"

Qiao Xinying shrugged, indicating that she didn't take the matter to heart at all.

Now that she had spoken her mind to her mother, there was nothing left for her to be angry about.

However, there is one more thing to do now, and I need my mother's help.

"My daughter is becoming more and more outstanding."

"How did you know that I stay at home all the time and am a homebody? Logically speaking, not many people should know this."

Qiao Ranxin also felt somewhat puzzled after saying this.

The number of people in the entire Huihuangxing Academy who knew about this could be counted on one hand.

Besides Yun Xi and Su Qian, only Teacher Ye knew about her decadent lifestyle.

Yun Xi definitely didn't tell Xinying the truth, and as for Su Qian and Teacher Ye, it goes without saying that they couldn't possibly have had any contact.

But aside from these people, who else knows anything about themselves...?

"Not many people know about this? That can't be right. I found out about it from a boy from the Huihuangxing Academy."

Qiao Xinying was also taken aback. Wasn't this something that everyone in the school knew about?

You should know that the boy she met in the park knew everything about her mother.

She even mentioned having discussed this with her mother multiple times, which hardly seems like a top-secret matter.

"A male student from the Huihuangxing Academy?"

Qiao Ranxin frowned and tilted her head in confusion.

She had absolutely no recollection of ever inviting any rascals...

"Wait... wait a minute..."

"Xinying, could you describe the boy's appearance and demeanor to me?"

A strange feeling suddenly rose from the depths of her heart.

My God, no way, it can't be such a coincidence, can it be that the boy Xinying met was...?

Chapter 45: (The previous chapter was 44, the title was misspelled)

The once cozy atmosphere in the room suddenly dropped to an eerie temperature.

The biting cold lingered in the hearts of Qiao Ranxin and Qiao Xinying for a long time.

After comparing the boy they were talking about, the two women realized with a start that the boy they were referring to was the same person.

However, Qiao Ranxin had prepared herself mentally beforehand, so she wasn't too affected when she heard that Xinying had met with the other party.

However, Qiao Xinying was different. She had no idea that the boy she met in the park was Wu Liang, whom she had "played" with since childhood.

The little brat who used to have a fierce look and always had his hair styled in a pigtail has now transformed into a handsome, dashing, and polite gentleman.

Are you kidding me? Are you joking? What kind of international joke is this?

Is this for real? Those two people have completely different faces.

Is the boy she and her mother were talking about really the same person? They must be completely different people.

Not only has her appearance undergone a complete transformation, but even her way of speaking and her overall demeanor are completely different, as if she has become a different person.

You said the handsome young man she met in the park was Wu Liang. What's the difference between that and pointing at a stray dog and saying it's a lion?

"Mom, let me sort out my thoughts first."

"I think our description might not be quite right, or there might be some mistake."

He took two deep breaths to forcefully suppress the shock in his heart.

Qiao Xinying rubbed her throbbing temples hard. "This can't be real. How could something like this, which only happens in novels or Korean dramas, possibly happen to me?"

A villainous young master suddenly has an epiphany and turns over a new leaf, becoming a charming and handsome gentleman loved by everyone? What kind of Mary Sue novel plot is this...?

"The young man you met should be Wu Liang himself. Your description of him is exactly the same as the current Wu Liang without any difference."

"Judging from how well he knows about my situation, and the way he looked down on me, he must be your fiancé— Wu Liang."

Qiao Ranxin was also surprised that the two young people had met so soon.

And the meeting was even conducted without any prior knowledge of the other party's identity.

This was quite dramatic for both Wu Liang and Xin Ying, and their initial meeting didn't go very well.

This was entirely due to Xin Ying's misunderstanding of Wu Liang, which likely caused Wu Liang to develop considerable resentment towards her.

After all, he kindly told Xinying the truth but was met with a furious rebuke, which would be hard for anyone to accept. "Fiancé... fiancé..."

Qiao Xinying's eyes twitched when she heard this.

But for some reason, she suddenly doesn't feel so resistant to the word "fiancé" anymore.

She felt nauseous when those three words were mentioned when she got off the plane not long ago.

Now, hearing it from my mother, I'm a little more able to accept and understand her.

What's going on? Did you change your opinion of Wu Liang just because you talked to him for a while in the park?

Because Wu Liang is no longer a villain or scoundrel, he now accepts Wu Liang?

No, it's probably just psychological. No matter what Wu Liang becomes, his villainous nature won't change in the slightest.

"Xinying, why did you suddenly come back this time?"

Qiao Ranxin squinted at Xinying in front of her. No matter what, Xinying was her daughter.

She knew better than anyone what the child was thinking.

However, this is not something she can decide on her own. If Xinying is determined, then she will probably have to meet with that man.

"I have finished my studies abroad and will stay by your side and live with you from now on."

"Therefore, I cannot live with the title of 'someone's fiancée' any longer. My first goal upon returning is to dissolve the engagement with the Wu family."

Qiao Xinying remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking, but at that very moment, a subtle struggle flashed through her mind.

The image of Wu Liang, whom I had seen in the park, suddenly flashed through my mind.

At that time, Wu Liang was quite stylish, both in terms of temperament and appearance.

"If this is truly your wish, then I have no right to interfere with your choice."

"If you've made up your mind and are prepared to face Wu Liang and his father, then we can set off to find them now."

Qiao Ranxin leaned back on the sofa and spoke softly.

Actually, if she thought about it carefully, it had been a long time since she had seen Wu Xingsheng and Mu Xinrou.

I wonder how those two are doing lately. It seems like it's been many years since I last saw them.

Now that you mention it, I really want to meet those two people, especially that girl Mu Xinrou. Has she become even more beautiful?

"Now?"

Qiao Xinying was taken aback; this was not how things had turned out.

She had thought her mother would try to persuade her for Wu Liang's sake, but why did she agree so easily now?

"You are my daughter, of course I have to follow my daughter's wishes. Do you think I would speak up for that brat Wu Liang?"

"Even though he has become very successful now, I would not have any objection if my precious daughter did not like him."

Qiao Ranxin picked up her wine glass, took a sip of the red wine, and smiled elegantly.

She wasn't particularly interested in the relationship between children, but she actually hoped that Xinying would pay more attention to Wu Liang.

After all, she had witnessed the changes in that brat firsthand; Wu Liang was no longer the hoodlum he used to be.

If Xinying could spend some time with Wu Liang, she would probably change her opinion of him.

"Hmm... there's no need to rush... I'd rather observe for a while first..."

Qiao Xinying never expected her mother to agree so readily.

It's actually inappropriate for her to break off the engagement now, since she hasn't even had any contact with the other party yet.

Since the other party has changed a lot, she should at least have a basic understanding of Wu Liang.

Furthermore, given the previous misunderstanding about their relationship, she still owes them an apology.

"Oh, then I suggest you talk to him privately for a while. I think Wu Liang should be easy to arouse now."

Qiao Ranxin raised an eyebrow and smiled meaningfully. This girl is wavering...

P. S.: Here's another picture. She's actually a couple with the pretty lady from before. (Those who know, know; I won't explain further.)

Chapter 46: You can stay here tonight.

"Wu Liang, I truly never dreamed you would become so... so outstanding..."

Su Chengluo no longer knew how to describe the excitement in his heart.

He felt very gratified by Wu Liang's current state; the kid had truly been reborn from the ashes, just as Qianqian had said.

No wonder Xixi is so fond of Wu Liang. Not to mention Xixi, even if Su Chengluo were a young girl now, he might fall in love with him too.

In terms of both appearance and temperament, Wu Liang has far surpassed his peers. There is no comparison between Wu Liang and the young masters of other families.

"Then, Uncle Su, let's agree on our family cooperation plan verbally for now."

"I will have Yao Shi draft an accurate contract and mail it to you later."

Wu Liang breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully his acting skills were getting better and better, and he managed to fool the other party.

However, all of this was thanks to Yao Shi's cooperation beforehand. If Yao Shi hadn't spoken up from time to time to distract Su Chengluo, he really wouldn't have been very confident.

Bringing Yao Shi along this time was definitely the wisest choice, as Yao Shi has an extremely deep understanding of the business world.

Before Su Chengluo could even ask any questions, Yao Shi had already guessed his question and given an answer.

Furthermore, Yao Shi answered questions very skillfully, not only soothing Su Chengluo's concerns but also cleverly avoiding the issue of her own real power.

If Yao Shi hadn't been there to support him, his conversation with Su Chengluo wouldn't have gone so smoothly tonight.

"Logically, I should be the one thanking you. I know my family's situation better than anyone. To receive such a gift from the Wu family is something I never dared to dream of in my life."

"But I have to tell you the truth now. Actually, before we even met, I was planning to reject you and send you back today."
