Chapter 3 My money was swallowed by the white-eyed wolf
Meng Xian accompanied Qiao Xiao as she cried and rambled throughout the night, and found out more about the situation of the Qiao family.
The history of the Qiao family is quite complicated, they were a large family during the Republican period, but during Qiao Xia grandfather's generation, the Qiao family had fallen from grace, barely able to maintain a modest living.
Qiao Xia mother was an only child, her family's situation was good, the husband and wife supported each other, and suprisingly brought development and growth to the Qiao, almost monopolizing the market in A city. In A city, the Qiao alone had eight large supermarket chains, and even dozens more across the country. They became an industry leader.
Eleven years ago, Qiao Xia's family of four went on a trip to Egypt and met with an anti-government revolutionary army riot, Qiao Xia's parents and sister died in a foreign country, and Qiao Xia miraculously survived after being kidnapped for a month.
Qiao Xia had an uncle, Qiao Guang, who was uneducated when he was young and worked as a manager in one of Qiao's supermarkets. When the family was divided, Grandpa Qiao gave him two houses and a supermarket, and the Qiao family's two-hundred-year-old house was left to Qiao Xia's father.
After the death of Qiao Xia's parents, the Qiao family lost its pillars, and Grandpa Qiao was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer.
Before he died, he entrusted Qiao Xia and the Qiao family to Qiao Guang. Qiao Guang became Qiao Xia's guardian as a matter of course.
After ten years passed.
Qiao Guang and her aunt treated Qiao Xia worse than a stranger, and the eight-year-long indifference made Qiao Xia suffer so much that once Qiao Xia became an adult at the age of 18, she moved out of the Qiao family's old house and rented a house outside.
Li Hui and Qiao Xia grew up as childhood sweethearts, and the two families made a verbal marriage contract early on. The two were so in love that they started their relationship in their first year of high school.
Qiao Lan was the eldest daughter of Qiao Guang, and was three years older than Qiao Xia.
Meng Xian was furious to hear that Qiao Guang's family not only hijacked Qiao Xia's property, she even said nothing and moved out away from them. Qiao Lan even stole Qiao Xia's fiancé, they were simply a family of white-eyed wolves.
Qiao Xia went to work with red and swollen eyes, and even her heavy makeup couldn't cover her eyes.
TVE Entertainment's media department has always been a fashion and gossip trendsetter, with a large number of women, and the competition was particularly strong.
Qiao Xia was silent no matter what people said to her. They thought it was strange, if it was the usual, Qiao Xia would have already fired back. With how she was today, it was not at all like Qiao Xia.
Before she didn't bring any news from yesterday, Qiao Xia was scolded in the director's office, add a morning of pandemonium, and her lack of appetite, it was particularly difficult for her.
"Qiao Xia, I happen to be near your company, it's been a long time, let's go for a meal." It was lunch break when Qiao Xia received the call from Fang Xiaoxia.
Fang Xiaoxia was Li Hui's mother. She and Qiao Xia's mother were classmates and had a good relationship, and the Qiao and Li families were also connected by the two of them.
In the first two years of her bereavement, Fang Xiaoxia treated her well and always took care of her, but in the past few years, she was much colder, and when Li Hui took her home for dinner, Fang Xiaoxia's attitude was always indifferent.
She wouldn't invite Qiao Xia for dinner.
"Okay."
Fang Xiaoxia asked her to meet her at a western restaurant, and when she went over, Qiao Lan was there, the two of them were as intimate as mother and daughter. Qiao Xia's head went blank, as if she had been slapped in the face.
They could really humiliate her.
After doing something like that, they still dare to come over and humiliate her.
"Qiao Xia, you're here ......" Qiao Lan's voice was dainty and she couldn't hide the trimuph between her eys, "Aunt Fang said she hadn't seen you for a long time and invited me to dinner too, you don't mind right."
"I do mind!" Qiao Xia's face was deadpan.
Qiao Lan's face stiffened, she did not expect Qiao Xia to be so blunt, and was about to attack, but because Fang Xiaoxia was here, she had to put up with her anger. She couldn't give Fang Xiaoxia a bad impression.
"Xiao Xia, saying this, are you blaming Aunt Fang?" Fang Xiaoxia also had a frosty expression.
Qiao Xia still had a frosty face, Qiao Lan tried to smooth things over, portraying herself as gentle and lovely, "Aunt Fang, the food in this restaurant is good, no need to be polite Qiao Xia, thinking about it, you have not come to eat in such a restaurant for a long time."
Her words mocked Qiao Xia's poorness, and set up herself as a model of a caring sister.
Qiao Xia smiled, "Yes, my money has been swallowed by a bunch of white-eyed wolves."
Qiao Lan's colour changed. This was true, but Qiao Xia has never mentioned it in the open. She originally thought Qiao Xia was afraid of them, but she never expected her to say it in front of Fang Xiaoxia so bluntly.
"Who are you calling a white-eyed wolf?"
