My Identities Were All Exposed After I Was Pampered by Everyone at My Grandfather’s House! - Chapter 303
303 Yin He
At the track within the Qiao property, Qiao Xin was running in circles.
Her clothes were soaked in sweat, and her legs were sore. Every step she took felt like she was stepping on the edge of a knife.
She had barely completed 3 kilometers, but she felt completely exhausted, like all her strength had been sucked out of her.
Qiao Xin was usually a spoiled child. She was the kind of person who would take sick leave so she could get out of running 800 meters, but she had to run a whole 8 kilometers this time.
!!
“Qiao Yue, you and I are sworn enemies forever! How dare you sow discord between me and second brother this time and make him punish me?”
Qiao Xin clenched her fists.
After she finished the 8 kilometers, she still had to clean the ancestral hall. The Qiao family ancestral hall was a full 100 square meters, and it was filled with ancestral tablets and Buddha statues.
Qiao Xin already found the ancestral hall eerie whenever she had to pay respects there, let alone cleaning it all by herself at night.
A whole 100 square meters… Wouldn’t she be spending the whole night with her ancestors and other, possibly evil, ghosts? Qiao Xin shuddered at the thought.
Qiao Xin brought a rag with her to the ancestral hall.
The Qiao family ancestral hall was built of sandalwood; even the floor was made of red sandalwood.
This wood was very delicate, and the floor must be cleaned by hand using a rag while kneeling on the ground.
This work would take a long time and would be very tiring.
Even an experienced servant would feel pain all over their body after cleaning the entire floor.
A pampered young lady like Qiao Xin already felt her back ache and saw stars after she wiped just ten tiles.
“Stupid Qiao Yue. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be here.”
Qiao Xin massaged her shoulders and looked at the ancestral tablets in front of her. She clasped her hands together and made a wish, “My dear ancestors, please bless me and make Qiao Yue, the b*stard of unknown origin, leave the Qiao family.”
Although Qiao Xin felt a little scared when she looked at the ancestral tablets, she really hoped that their spirits would help her punish Qiao Yue.
“Haha, Miss Qiao has quite a temper.”
Someone walked out from behind a pillar in the hall.
It was a man in a black suit who looked about the same age as Qiao Jing. Unlike Qiao Jing’s cold and stern appearance, he looked gentle and had a kind of androgenous beauty.
“Who are you?” Qiao Xin asked.
Since when did the Qiao residence welcome such a guest?
“I’m Qiao Jing’s guest. I lost my way and ended up in the ancestral hall. You must be Miss Qiao Xin?” The man chuckled. “You are indeed as beautiful as rumored.”
Qiao Xin loved to hear such flattering words. She blushed and looked at him.
“But my fifth brother has caused trouble, and I’ve been punished to clean the ancestral hall.” Qiao Xin continued angrily, “My fifth brother is a b*stard. He’s not of Qiao blood yet he’s acting like tyrant in our home.”
The man just quietly listened to Qiao Xin’s complaints.
“I’m sorry for telling you so many bad things about our family.”
The man laughed. “I’m willing to listen. I’m also very willing to help Miss Qiao take revenge on your so-called fifth brother.”
“What?” Qiao Xin was a little surprised and jumped up from the floor.
At this moment, the family butler entered the ancestral hall.
“Mr. Yin He, you’re here.” The butler saw the man and quickly walked up.
“The second young master has been looking for you. I didn’t expect you to be in the ancestral hall.” The butler saw Qiao Xin wiping the floor and quickly explained with embarrassment, “This is the second young miss of the family. She has been punished to clean the ancestral hall because of something she did. Please pardon us.”
“It’s nothing. When I was young, I have also been punished to clean my family ancestral hall for a whole year because I was naughty.” Yin He smiled.
He looked very kind, and he spoke with dignity.
“Second young master Qiao is still waiting for you in the study. Let’s bring you over there now.”
“Alright.” Yin He turned and nodded at Qiao Xin. “See you next time, Miss Qiao Xin.”
Qiao Xin clutched her pounding heart and reluctantly watched Yin He leave.
This Mr. Yin He was the son of a prominent family in C-Country. Qiao Xin has seen his name in her father’s files. If she could be with this young master Yin, her father should be very happy, right?
Moreover, this Yin He seemed to have something against Qiao Yue and even suggested that he would deal with Qiao Yue someday.
This would be so great. She wouldn’t have to fight Qiao Yue alone anymore.
She went back on all fours to wipe the floor, scolding Qiao Yue in her heart as she wiped.
