Chapter 197 The Women of the Qiao Family
Upon hearing Qiao Hongwei's words, Lu Wenguang looked at Qiao Zhennan and said, "In principle, Weiwei should apologize, but that child was too arrogant. Old Qiao, go back and tell Qiao Wei that she must apologize to Song Qiao for what happened today."
After saying this, Lu Wenguang glanced at Song Qiao and said, "Let's go."
Qiao Hongwei glared at Song Qiao, then looked at Lu Wenguang, ready to vent her anger: "Dad, are you going back to Yushan?"
Qiao Zhennan understood the implication of his daughter's words, clearly wanting her father-in-law to go back. He glared at her angrily and said, "How dare you! How dare you speak to your father like that? Have I failed to educate you properly? It's so late. Are you sure you don't feel comfortable letting your father go back to Yushan?"
After saying this, Qiao Zhennan ignored the anger in his wife and daughter's eyes and walked to Song Qiao's side: "I, Qiao Zhennan, apologize to you on behalf of my granddaughter. It was my Weiwei who was wrong. She shouldn't have broken your phone and hit you."
Song Qiao hadn't said anything until she heard Qiao Zhennan's apology. She quickly said, "Forget it, let's just let it go and not mention it again."
Song Qiao's magnanimity did not satisfy Wang Hehua.
"My dear in-law, you haven't been fooled. You're treating a divorced woman like a treasure, even though you don't know why she got divorced?"
Qiao Hongwei seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "That's right, Dad! Who is she? I don't recognize a daughter-in-law like that. If you think she's good, take her back to Yushan!"
Qiao Hongwei's words completely enraged Lu Wenguang, who looked at Qiao Zhennan and said, "Old Qiao, I won't say anything, but listen to what your daughter is saying?"
Lu Wenguang's chest heaved with anger, while Song Qiao looked at him with concern: "Grandpa, don't be angry, let's go."
Qiao Zhennan turned around and glared at Qiao Hongwei: "Apologize to your father!"
Qiao Hongwei was also a little scared when she saw Lu Wenguang's appearance. She was afraid that she would anger him to the point of injury, and Lu Xinjun would not let her off the hook.
"Dad! I'm sorry. I said something I shouldn't have because I saw you siding with this woman. Please don't be angry."
Upon hearing this, Wang Hehua snorted coldly: "In-law, isn't it all your fault? You insisted on making this divorced woman your daughter-in-law. Our Weiwei is so much better."
Hearing his wife's words, Qiao Zhennan turned around and glared at Wang Hehua: "If you keep talking nonsense, don't think I'm being disrespectful. Isn't what Weiwei did shameful enough?"
After saying this, he asked angrily, "Are you still going or not? If you're not going, we're going home."
Being reprimanded in front of so many people, Wang Hehua retorted defiantly, "Who said we weren't going? Weren't we going to see Xiao Xuan? I don't know what's wrong with this child. He'd rather find a divorced man than look at our Weiwei."
Hearing them keep mentioning her second marriage, Song Qiao couldn't hold back any longer: "So what if I'm second-time? I didn't steal or rob, I'm perfectly aboveboard. Mingxuan likes me, and I like him too. We're in love. If you want to give your blessings, then give them; if not, I have no objection."
Song Qiao's words were clearly provocative, and Qiao Hongwei angrily pointed at her: "Shameless!"
"Enough! This is Xinjun's hospital. As the director's wife, you're throwing a tantrum here. You're not only disgracing Xinjun, but also me," Qiao Zhennan roared, slapping his own face.
After leaving those words, Qiao Zhennan stormed into the building. Wang Hehua looked at her daughter and said, "Let's go, don't make your dad angry."
As Lu Wenguang watched Qiao Zhennan and his wife leave with his own Qiao Hongwei, he looked up at Song Qiao and said, "Qiao Qiao, don't take it personally with my daughter-in-law."
Song Qiao shook her head: "Grandpa, I didn't. Let's go."
Song Qiao also hoped to gain Qiao Hongwei's approval, but from beginning to end, she was insulted with words, not only mentioning her second marriage, but today Wang Hehua even said such things to her. It seems that birds of a feather flock together.
Song Qiao helped Lu Wenguang into the car, glanced up in the direction of Lu Mingxuan's ward, and left the hospital.
After Qiao Zhennan entered the building, Qiao Hongwei rushed to press the elevator button. After watching her parents enter the elevator, she finally went in.
“You have really disappointed me today, Hongwei. That was your father-in-law, Xinjun’s father. You showed no respect for your elders and said such things. If Xinjun finds out, he will divorce you.”
Hearing this, Wang Hehua glared angrily at Qiao Zhennan: "How can you talk about your daughter like that? You're siding with outsiders in front of them."
"Alright! Stop talking. Look at the daughters and granddaughters you raised! Do you think you've gained the upper hand? Only a fool would do this. This will only make Lu Wenguang less likely to accept Weiwei. If you continue like this, you will definitely make your daughter and son-in-law divorce."
Qiao Zhennan looked back at his daughter: "No wonder Xiao Xuan is so cold to you. I understand now. It's your domineering and autocratic attitude as a mother that has gradually alienated him from you."
Qiao Hongwei's eyes showed a hint of bitterness when he heard Qiao Zhennan's words, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Dad, I'm doing this for the sake of the Qiao family. You can see that Weiwei likes Mingxuan. As her aunt, I can't just stand by and do nothing, can I?"
Hearing this, Wang Hehua looked at her daughter with heartache: "Old Qiao, don't blame Hongwei. She did it all for her family."
If these words had been spoken in the morning, Qiao Zhennan would have genuinely believed that Qiao Hongwei truly cared for Qiao Wei. However, at noon, Lu Mingxuan called him to inquire about the glass of juice.
Later, Qiao Zhennan asked the nanny, Xiao Cui, about the doctor who came to the hospital at noon to deliver medicine to Qiao Hongwei when the guests arrived. Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhennan thought of the incident where Qiao Wei drugged Lu Mingxuan.
As the elevator reached the sixth floor, Qiao Zhennan looked at his daughter and said, "If you've done something wrong, go and explain it to Xinjun as soon as possible and ask Xiaoxuan for forgiveness. Don't wait until everyone turns against you, because then it will be too late to regret it."
As soon as Qiao Zhennan finished speaking, the elevator doors opened, and three people stepped out.
Qiao Hongwei walked down the corridor, glancing at Qiao Zhennan repeatedly. She wondered if her father had found out about what happened at noon. His words just now were clearly a reminder that she was the one who drugged him.
But being always arrogant, she didn't want to admit it, and Qiao Wei agreed not to tell anyone.
"Mom and Dad, is Xiaoxuan in this room?"
Upon entering, Qiao Zhennan and Wang Hehua saw Lu Mingxuan alone there and hurried over.
"Grandpa, Grandma, what brings you here?" Lu Mingxuan sat up quickly when he saw the two of them.
"Xiao Xuan, lie down quickly, don't sit up." Wang Hehua saw Lu Mingxuan sit up and quickly gestured for him to lie down.
"Grandma, I have a back injury, it's more comfortable to sit down."
"A back injury? So that means at noon..."
Wang Hehua recalled the position Lu Mingxuan was in on the bed in the Qiao family's guest room at noon. Qiao Wei not only drugged her, but also made him lie on the bed, and more importantly, she pressed her body against him. It seemed that he knew nothing at the time.
In other words, it is impossible for Lu Mingxuan to have a relationship with Qiao Wei.
Qiao Zhennan also thought of this, and looked at Lu Mingxuan and said, "Mingxuan, Qiao Wei was too embarrassed to come herself for what happened at noon, so she asked us to apologize on her behalf!"
