Translator: 549690339

Qiao Mu got up and prepared to leave, but after taking a few steps, Shu Xinyu’s voice sounded behind her. “” Qiao Mu, allow me to remind you that a girl shouldn’t be so ambitious. Even if you have Li Yan backing you up, it won’t last long. After all, Li Yan already has a fiancée. Since you’re unwilling to stop in time, I’ll wait and see what kind of work you can produce in the finals! ”

Faced with Shu Xinyu’s mockery, a cold glint flashed across Qiao Mu’s eyes. She did not argue and left immediately.

She had finally seen how Shu Xinyu protected Ning Tongtong without distinguishing between right and wrong. Her daughter was right, and everyone else was wrong.

She couldn’t change what others thought of her. All she could do was use her strength to shut others up!

Due to Shu Xinyu’s interference, Qiao Mu was no longer in the mood to continue shopping. She called Li Yan, who came over to pick her up when it was time to get off work.

Qiao Mu got into the car with a puffed up face, looking as if she had been provoked.

She was unwilling to show her emotions in front of others. After all, she had been in the Qiao family for so many years, so she could hide her feelings very well.

However, when she faced Li Yan, those little grievances instantly appeared and she could not suppress them.

Li Yan looked down at her. ” What’s wrong? ”

“Uncle, what if I’m bullied?” As Qiao Mu spoke, she plunged into Li Yan’s embrace.

Li Yan’s eyes turned cold when he saw the aggrieved look on the little woman’s face. ” With me around, who would dare to bully you? ”

This simple sentence instantly warmed Qiao Mu’s heart.

Sometimes, Qiao Mu would think that the heavens were fair. They gave her a man like him to protect her, so there would be people who would bully her. Otherwise, how could she display her uncle’s might and dominance?!

Qiao Mu’s anger subsided, but she still angrily said, “”I met Shu Xinyu when I was shopping just now. She wanted me to withdraw from the competition and even said that I could name any conditions! Just thinking about it makes me angry.”

“Shu Xinyu?” Li Yan didn’t frown. A chill gradually appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Qiao Mu nodded. ” Shu Xinyu seems to be kept in the dark by Ning Tongtong and doesn’t know that Ning Tongtong bought my work, so she firmly believes that I plagiarized Ning Tongtong’s work. She’s really competent as a stepmother. ”

Li Yan looked down at her. ” Do you hate Shu Xinyu? ”

Qiao Mu thought about it. ” I don’t really hate him. I just don’t like him. ” She only felt that what she had done was a little overboard, but thinking about it carefully, she had done it for Ning Tongtong’s good. As a mother, she was a little confused. I just don’t know if she’ll continue to protect Ning Tongtong after she finds out that Ning Tongtong lied to her. ”

At this point, Qiao Mu leaned on Li Yan’s shoulder, and her tone softened a little. ” Although Ning Tongtong isn’t that great of a person, I’m still quite envious of her in some aspects. At least she can get along so well with her stepmother. She’s like her own mother. ”

Li Yan raised his hand and patted Qiao Mu’s head. ” Mumu, if you find your mother and realize that she’s not as beautiful as you think she is, will you regret acknowledging her? ”

Qiao Mu was startled, and her expression dimmed a little. ” I didn’t imagine her to be that wonderful in the first place. She abandoned me when I was born, so how wonderful could she be? ”

Qiao Mu snuggled into Li Yan’s embrace. ” I have you, Auntie, and my father. I’m already very satisfied. “
