Chapter 1801: Baffled

That young lady’s life was already so miserable. She had never done anything wrong in her life, and yet, she had been bullied so extensively. There was no need for outsiders like them to add to this young lady’s troubles. This young lady’s life was even more miserable than his own!

At least, he had met his savior, the chief, at the lowest point in his life. After he retired from the military, the chief had made a suggestion and had even lent him money to start his own company. Qiao Nan had no such savior in her life to pull her up at her lowest.

“Young lady…” Zhai Sheng’s reaction was a little strange at the mention of these two words. “She is indeed still a young lady.” And a young lady nearing the age of forty at that.

When he had first heard that Qiao Nan was single, Zhai Sheng’s first thought was that Qiao Nan was just like himself and had gotten married but then gotten divorced years ago. That was why he had felt at ease. But now that he knew that Qiao Nan had never been married, Zhai Sheng could not understand why, but he felt joy in his heart.

“Isn’t that right? With a family like this, she would never have the chance to change her status of a young lady even if she wanted to!” Sun Guohong felt that it was unfair to Qiao Nan. He was thankful that he could make his own decisions as a man.

At least, after learning of the kind of person his younger brother was, he had safely held all his earnings in his own hands and had not let his mom or brother take advantage of him any longer. But Qiao Nan was different. Even after knowing what kind of people her family was, Qiao Nan had still been oppressed and squeezed dry for so many years. She was almost forty years old, but she did not even have a boyfriend, let alone a partner for marriage.

The only time she had ever dated in her life, she had almost walked into a church and gotten married. But everything had been ruined by her own biological mother and sister. ‘Pitiful’ was insufficient to describe her situation.

“The news has been talking about their family of four lately. Chief, you might not have watched the news. That’s why you haven’t seen how ugly her mom is. Before everyone knew about their family’s situation, she had been sobbing and acting pitiful. She had even painted a horrible portrait of the Qiao family. Now, everyone knows that the Qiao family not only has a house but even has two apartments. But they still claimed that they’re poor and have no money for treatment, and they even begged others for donations. Knowing that they wouldn’t be able to get those donations, that crazy woman went on a rage and called everyone around her all sorts of nasty things!”

The more Sun Guohong saw, the more empathetic he felt toward Qiao Nan. He finally understood why Qiao Nan had decided not to stay in Ping Cheng and had instead moved to such a rural town like Qingshui Town.

If she did not move away, Qiao Nan would never be able to lead a good life with her family around. It was only by distancing herself from her family would Qiao Nan be able to start a new life afresh. Forty was not a young age. If she did not start a new life for herself, Qiao Nan’s whole life would truly be a tragedy.

“I saw it.” Sun Guohong’s information was rather detailed, but he had not been able to show Zhai Sheng the clips from the news. However, Sun Guohong had managed to include newspaper clippings and articles from magazines for Zhai Sheng to see. “You said that this is Qiao Nan’s first time in Qingshui Town. Are you sure?”

“Yes, don’t worry, chief. This is absolutely reliable.”

“From your impression, do you think it’s possible that the situation of the Zhai family’s old villa could have been leaked?” Since this was Qiao Nan’s first time in Qingshui Town, she must not have been to the Zhai family’s old villa in the past. If that was the case, wasn’t Qiao Nan’s behavior even more worthy of consideration and attention?
