Chapter 3 So, It''s a Hidden Big Boss
His mother had mentioned before that his Second Aunt used to be much prettier than all the current
female celebrities when she was younger.
Back then, he thought that his mother had no idea what she was talking about.-
But he trusted her now!
What a p to his own face.
She was so beautiful...
On the other side, Qiao Nian was talking to someone on the phone.
"Damn, the Qiao family really chased you out? They''re terrible! They used you in exchange for your
sister''s life and even guilt-tripped you by iming to be your kin... And now they''re chasing you out
the moment they no longer see a use for you!
"Had you known, you shouldn''t have done so much to treat Qiao Chen''s illness. They don''t know
that if it wasn''t for you, Qiao Chen wouldn''t even be able to live past 20. They think that hemophilia
is a flu or something and can be treated with just a pill!"
Qiao Nian saw someone walking towards her now. She casually said on the phone, "No matter
what, the Qiao family did raise me. I''ve repaid them by treating Qiao Chen. Now, we have nothing to
do with each other."
The person on the line sounded indignant. "Don''t you know how much you''ve helped the Qiao
family all these years? If it wasn''t for you, Qiao Weimin would never have been able to expand his
family from Rao City to the capital. He''s too dumb for that!N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"And that younger sister of yours. You gave her tuition and helped her with her tunes. That family
made you do everything possible!
"I used to think that they were your biological family members, but were simply biased towards your
sister. Then, when I found out that they were actually not rted to you, I realized how shameless
they were!
"They knew full well that you weren''t rted to them by blood and still took advantage of you
without treating you like family."
Qiao Nian smiled, knowing that everything the other party said was urate.
"I know all about it!"
Qiao Nian saw that Jiang Li was approaching and lowered her volume. "I have something else to
attend to, I''ll hang up first."
"Where are you staying tonight, do you need me to fetch you from Rao City?"
"No need, my family ising to get me."
"You''re really going to look for your biological parents?"
Qiao Nian looked rather nonchnt as she said, "I need to know my roots at least — who I am and
where Ie from."
The person on the line went quiet.
Qiao Nian didn''t want to guess what he was thinking and simply said, "Bye."
She hung up and kept her cell phone in her pocket before Jiang Li got to her.
Everyone liked pretty people and things. Jiang Li happily took her stuff and carried them for her.
"Nian Nian, am I right? I''m your cousin, Jiang Li. Just calling me Second Brother will do."
Qiao Nian looked up at him. Jiang Li was tall and rather good-looking, with a smile that made him
look approachable. Some of his hair was highlighted in a bright purple, giving him a unique
personality in his simple elegance.
Hm, she felt like she''d seen this face before.
Qiao Nian wasn''t one who remembered faces well. If someone wasn''t important enough to her,
she''d just forget them.
"Mm. Nice to meet you, I''m Qiao Nian." She greeted him politely. So far, she seemed rather
obedient and sweet, at least to Jiang Li.
"Grandpa''s legs aren''t in a very good condition and he can''t take a ne, so he got me to pick you
up. He''s taking a train and will arriveter. Your dad and my parents have reserved a ce at
Waterside Loft, and they should be there by now. Let''s head there."
Jiang Li smiled as he spoke to her.
"Nian Nian, I''ve got another friend in the car. He''ll be joining uster. I hope you don''t mind?"
