Chapter 897 - Pointless

Chapter 897 Pointless

It was pointless to promise Shi Qing to fetch her and to come up with such a cheap trick.
In short, Feng Meng might be unhappy, but Qiao Nan was in a bad mood as well.
It was inconvenient for Qiao Nan to say anything, but Shi Qing, who was used to express her displeasure, openly could not stomach her anger.
Brother Feng Meng, if you are busy, there is no need to fetch me. We have a chauffeur at home. You could get the chauffeur to fetch me. I am unhappy that you behave in such a manner.

No matter the reason, if Feng Meng could not fetch her, Shi Qing would not be angry with him. But she was unhappy that he was here, yet he showed them his displeasure.

You are such a stupid girl. You treat others like your friends but they have, in fact, betrayed you.
Feng Meng was annoyed and amused. He was upset because he could not stand Shi Qing being bullied. But it was heartless of her to lose her temper at him because of an outsider. If Qing Qing was still young, he would have given her a spanking on the butt. She needed some discipline.


She had gotten out of control as her family doted on her.
Shi Qing turned to face Feng Meng.
Who are you referring to?

Making oblique accusations?
She would not allow that!
Feng Meng had a bad headache. Qing Qing was hurt by Qiao Nan’s words, yet she defended her the next instant. Did Qiao Nan bewitch Qing Qing such that she turned insane?

No one in particular. I have said the wrong words.
The outsider was still in the car. Feng Meng did not want to lecture his sister and embarrass her in front of Qiao Nan. If there was anything, he would talk to her at home when the outsider was not around.
Furthermore, Feng Meng might have said that he wanted to lecture Shi Qing for not being a good judge of people, but he could not bear to say harsh words to her. He doted on her too much to raise his voice at her.
Feng Meng had had a bad impression of Qiao Nan. On the other hand, Qiao Nan did not have a good impression of the people from the Feng family either.
Actually, Qiao Nan and Shi Qing belonged to two different worlds. It was impossible for Qiao Nan to know people like Shi Qing.
But Zhai Sheng was the role model in the quad. Ding Jiayi would mention him from time to time, saying that one must have a child like Zhai Sheng.


Most of the people in the quad knew that Shi Qing liked Zhai Sheng and almost quarreled with Qiu Chenxi because of that.
Therefore, Qiao Nan knew some gossip about Zhai Sheng through Ding Jiayi, and she also learned about Shi Qing as well.
However, Qiao Nan did not have much recollection of Zhai Sheng and Shi Qing right after her rebirth. She suspected that it might be due to the car accident and the rebirth.
But as she got to know Shi Qing better, she gradually remembered bits and pieces of the rumors regarding Shi Qing.
In the previous life, Shi Peng did not leave the army and was in bad health. He did not live long
In the previous life, she did not get to know Zhai Sheng and had no idea who he married in the end. But she was certain that he was married in the previous life! According to the series of events in this life, Qiu Chenxi might be the woman that Zhai Sheng married in the previous life.
After knowing Shi Qing for such a long time, Qiao Nan knew very well the kind of person that Old Master Shi was. Before Qiu Chenxi was engaged to Zhai Sheng, he was already very biased toward Qiu Chenxi.
After Qiu Chenxi married Zhai Sheng, and with Shi Peng not around to protect Shi Qing, Qiao Nan knew that Shi Qing did not have a good life living with Old Master Shi.
Qiao Nan vaguely remembered that like her, Shi Qing was single even when she was in her thirties.
The difference was that she was near her forties when she died because of her mother. She heard that Shi Qing was still single in her thirties and Old Master Shi tried to force her into a marriage.


If the Feng family valued and doted on Shi Qing, why would she remain single at such an age to the extent that she was almost being forced into a marriage by Old Master Shi?
Although her father was not around to protect her and she was being forced into a marriage by her grandpa, the Feng family should be able to render their help. But Shi Qing seemed to have a tragic life and Ding Jiayi would always gossip and joke about her. If the Feng family treated Shi Qing as their precious princess, where were the Feng family and Feng Meng in the previous life when Shi Qing needed their help?
Qiao Nan’s expression darkened at the thought of that. She looked more sullen than Feng Meng
Feng Meng saw her expression through the rearview mirror and laughed in exasperation. She had no self-awareness at all. How dared she show her displeasure at him! He doubted his uncle’s judgment of character. Why did he insist that she was a good lady and want Qing Qing to help her around? Such a bad-tempered and ill-disciplined lady like her did not have any positive traits.
They rode on in silence until they reached the Lin family’s house.
Lin Yuankang knew how to enjoy life. Although the house was in the capital, it was still very big and comfy. During the ten years of turmoil in China, Lin Yuankang spent the time studying overseas. During those ten years, the Lin family was in a precarious situation because of Lin Yuankang. He did not have many relatives because of the tumultuous times. He did not sever ties with them. Instead, it was his relatives who cut off all ties with him.
The Lin family was a rich family. Back then, all of their properties were confiscated.
After ten years of turmoil, the country needed talents like Lin Yuankang. He decided to give up his good life overseas and return to his homeland that was in a state of devastation.
The country could not provide Lin Yuankang with the same promising conditions that he had enjoyed overseas. But at the very least, they returned all the confiscated properties to him and gave him a lot of subsidies.
Take for instance the Lin family’s small quad. The government furnished it before returning it to Lin Yuankang.


Like Qiao Nan, Lin Yuankang was distant from his relatives. Therefore, he put in a lot of effort when choosing his disciples.
The relatives of the Lin family all came looking for him after he came back to the country. Although Lin Yuankang did not refuse to see them, he only exchanged polite greetings with them, keeping them at arm’s length.
Lin Yuankang went overseas when he was very young. He did not marry or have any children. His parents died at an early age after being implicated by him. It was also due to this reason that Lin Yuankang was not on close terms with his relatives.
Lin Yuankang had a firm attitude on this, and he did not give any leeway to the Lin family. Although they tried to make use of his reputation to succeed, they did not achieve their motives in the end.
Lin Yuankang had a small quad in the capital that was vacant, but he did not allow his relatives to stay in the house. They still lived in small houses that were only about ten to twenty square meters.
On the contrary, as an outsider, Qiao Nan was able to enjoy what the Lin family was not able to enjoy. She moved into the small quad that the Lin family had been coveting!
Qiao Nan moved her belongings into the Lin family’s small quad when the phone in the small quad rang, shocking her.
Hello, I am…
