Qiao Yue walked around Qiao Ze's limited edition sports car to the passenger seat's side.
Just as Qiao Ze was about to gloat, the two of them saw Qiao Yue stretch out her legs and mounted a motorcycle next to the car.
With a loud vroom, the motorcycle drove off, leaving a trail of dust behind it.
"Ahem!"
Qiao Ze's face was covered in dust as he coughed a few times and stared blankly at Qiao Yue's departing figure.
"He, he left just like that? On a motorcycle?" Qiao Ze muttered in disbelief.
Qiao Jing lowered his eyes behind his glasses, casting a shadow over his face.
"Drive," ordered Qiao Jing.
The car started moving slowly and Qiao Jing's fingers ran across the photo of the young man on his tablet.
A Dodge Tomahawk? He was wondering just now why there was such vehicle in this small village, and it was casually parked outdoors. He really didn't expect it.
It seemed that the boy they were bringing home to the Qiao residence would bring them a lot of surprises. Qiao Jing adjusted his glasses and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly into a subtle smile.
Qiao Yue rode the Tomahawk and sped on the road, wind whooshing past her ears. She remembered that it was a few years ago that she was forced to learn how to drive. She almost broke a leg when she learned how to ride this.
After she learned it, she fell in love with the feeling of being in sync with the wind, soaring freely.
About two hours later, Qiao Yue's Tomahawk stopped in front of the Qiao family's manor.
Qiao Yue looked at the grounds in front of her and secretly compared it to her own residence.
"Yes, it's bigger than mine but not as big as Godfather's manor."
Not long after Qiao Yue stopped in front of the manor, a servant came to welcome her. The servant sized up the travelworn young man suspiciously.
The second and third young masters said that they were going to pick up the fifth young master today but why was the fifth young master like this? Also, the second and third young masters were nowhere to be seen yet.
Although the servant was suspicious, he still completed his job and brought Qiao Yue into the villa.
Qiao Yue didn't care about direct or indirect gazes that came her way. She was here to complete her mother's last wish and would leave as soon as it was done.
As Qiao Yue's arrival was too peculiar, the servant did not report her arrival to the old master. Instead, he asked the third Madam, who was at home.
In the servants' eyes, the third Madam was a good-tempered person. After all, she didn't birth a son in such a big family and couldn't say much. So, this Madam had always been a person who's not competitive.
"My health hasn't been good lately. Let Xin'er and Ying'er go and entertain the guest! We'll discuss the other things when big brother and the others are home!"
"Yes, Madam,"
The servant then went to look for the two young misses. At the same time, he sighed for the fifth young master. Miss Ying'er had a good temper like her mother, but Miss Xin'er... Sigh!
In the living room, Qiao Yue was sitting on the sofa drinking coffee.
The servant had asked her to wait here just now but she didn't know what or whom for. For old master Qiao? But that's impossible. Shouldn't the servant bring her to the elder instead of letting the old master come over?
Just as Qiao Yue mind wondered, a female voice sounded, "Yo! Where did this country bumpkin come from? Is he here to take advantage of our family? The Qiao family doesn't have any family member or friend with such disheveled clothes and body..."
The girl stopped talking the moment Qiao Yue turned around.
When the girl saw Qiao Yue's back just now, she only saw Qiao Yue's clothes and thought that he was a sloppy-looking boy. She didn't expect Qiao Yue to look so sunny and handsome when he turned around.
But Qiao Xin was dazed for only a second before she said, "Oh, it's the boy from a remote village who says that he's my aunt's son. Who knows if it's true? There are many people who want to be instantly rich these days."
Qiao Ying didn't expect Qiao Xin's words to be so sarcastic. She quickly pulled on her sister's sleeve, motioning her to stop.
Qiao Yue smiled, her expression unchanged in the face of Qiao Xin's ridicule, but her eyes vaguely revealed the kind of care that one had for the mentally disabled.
Qiao Ying didn't know if she was wrong, but she felt that her fifth brother seemed to be disdainful of Qiao Xin's behavior.
"I was invited back by Qiao Jing and Qiao Ze. If Miss Qiao is unhappy with the results, why don't you go and ask your second and third brothers?" Qiao Yue replied politely, her expression unchanged.
Qiao Yue had absolutely no interest in childish arguments.
"You! Your mom had embarrassed the Qiao family by eloping with someone back then! If you still have any self-esteem, you should leave the Qiao residence on your own accord! Don't even think about taking advantage of us!
