Chu Qiao sneered secretly, full of sincerity? Huh…… Where did she get the face to say such a thing? The stability and harmony of this family were all based on her hard work and resentment. In her previous life, she sacrificed most of her life for this family. 

He Jihong and Chu Yuanzhi were a loving husband and wife, Xu Bilian had a successful career, Chu Peng was admitted to a prestigious university, went abroad for further studies, and has a very promising future.

Everyone praised He Jihong for her good fortune, her son and daughter were successful, and said that she taught them well.

But no one thought of her stepdaughter, who was like a slave. When she was mentioned, He Jihong casually replied, “Chu Qiao ah…… I haven’t seen her for a long time, and If I do, I won’t say much.”

Chu Qiao gritted her teeth and thought of the pain and hatred before her death in the previous life. According to the doctor’s tone, her daughter also couldn’t be saved. That’s fine then, How could a child without mother’s protection live well? It would be better to be reincarnated early.

She wouldn’t have any more children in the future, let alone get married. It was good for her to live alone, but she had to find a way to be independent and move her hukou1 to Shanghai. He Jihong, this old bitch, had never moved her hukou. Her hukou was still in the countryside and was under the name of Sun Yinxiu.

1Hukou : a system of household registration used in mainland China.

Chu Qiao had a sudden thought, and she couldn’t wait to move her hukou to Shanghai. She would think of the solution in this matter later. But now, the matter of Gu Jianshe should be solved first.

“Aunt He, we’d better meet outside. If the first meeting is in the house, in case we aren’t a match, others will gossip.” Chu Qiao said.

He Jihong was unwilling. In her opinion, there was no chance of being not suitable. Chu Qiao must have married Gu Jianshe. The meeting was just a formality.

“Why should it be done outside? Just stay at home……”

Before He Jihong could finish speaking, Chu Peng suddenly said coldly, “Tang Weiguo will come to our house to do his homework tomorrow. I’ll call him and tell him not to come.”

“Weiguo is coming? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If you do, Mom will arrange it sooner. Xiao Chu, you should buy more prawns tomorrow morning. Weiguo likes to eat them.”

He Jihong’s face was full of smiles. Tang Weiguo’s family background was much higher than He family. She could not wait for Tang Weiguo to visit.

“Qiao Qiao, you can meet Jianshe outside tomorrow. There is a teahouse nearby, just go there to meet him. I’ll call Jianshe to let him know.”

He Jihong agreed to let her go out for the blind date. Chu Qiao, who couldn’t be shown publicly, would be better off not staying at home and embarrassing her. Anyway, this step daughter does not have any capability to do anything out of her control.

Chu Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. He Jihong couldn’t control her when she went outside. She could refuse Gu Jianshe and she had to look ugly. It would be better for Gu Jianshe to dislike her ugliness and look down on her.

In the previous life, she listened to He Jihong’s, and clipped her bangs, which revealed her whole face to Gu Jianshe to look straight at her. At that time, she was happy. She thought the man liked her. But now she knew that with this kind of face, nine out of ten men would be dumbfounded.

She was so beautiful. Even if Xu Bilian cut her bones a hundred times, she wouldn’t be able to look more beautiful than Chu Qiao.

After Chu Peng had eaten, he got up and went to his room. He had never been very talkative at home and was very indifferent. Chu Qiao looked suspiciously at the back of her half brother and always felt that Chu Peng was helping her just now.

But how could it be possible? Chu Peng disliked her to death. He never spoke to her since he was young. He always called her stupid.

Maybe it was just a coincidence. Tang Weiguo and Chu Peng really had a good relationship. In the previous life, they went abroad and started a business together. Their brotherhood had always been very good. They were classmates. Tang Weiguo often came to visit to do his homework. In fact, he just copied Chu Peng’s homework. Tang Weiguo’s study was a mess. These two people were the first in the class, one from the right order and the other one from the backwards.
