Chapter 336 Who Are You Closer To?

lly die on this mountain. Her mind was blank, unable to think of anything. When her forehead slammed against a sharp, jagged rock, the pain brought some clarity. She struggled to crawl behind the larg..."The traffic police asked me to go back there at noon to cooperate with their investigation. If nothing comes up, I'll head back to the city..."

Qiao Bao'er wants to escape the city, this ominous place.

In fact, she knew very well that wherever she went, it wouldn't be her home.

Maybe it was because she usually had a fierce demeanor, always energetic and enthusiastic no matter what she encountered. But now, Lu Qinan noticed a touch of melancholy on her beautiful cheek, something that didn't belong to her.

Suddenly, he had some things he wanted to tell her.

"What do you need me for"

At that moment, Qiao Bao'er's phone suddenly rang. She glanced at her phone and pressed the answer button, her voice instantly turning cold.

Lu Qinan curiously glanced at her phone, raising an eyebrow. "Who"

Although Qiao Baobao doesn't usually get close to people, there aren't many people she dislikes.

She held her phone, her expression was indeed impatient, as if she was about to hang up immediately.

On the phone, Ye Wei’s voice was a bit urgent and angry. She barked orders, "I want you to immediately release Ye Xi."

Qiao Bao'er coldly and coolly retorted, "Are you trying to befriend me now and appeal to my emotions Ye Wei, both of you sisters are really disgusting."

Ye Wei's voice was sharp and angry, " Qiao Baoer, Ye Xi's injuries are more serious, she's still in the intensive care unit, Zhu Xiao Wei has already been discharged..."

"How badly my sister is injured has nothing to do with you. This is all Ye Xi's fault. She was the one who caused the accident and drove her car straight at us."

Jo Bao'er really disliked the Ye sisters. They were like ghosts, constantly bothering her and dragging down her friends as well, which made her even angrier and more resentful.

“If I and Zhu Xiaowu were hit to death by her car back then, wouldn't we deserve to die Ye Wei, you really think too highly of yourself. If it wasn't for the Qiao family backing you up, what capital would you have Why should I listen to you” By the end, Qiao Baoruer almost gritted her teeth.

Human connection, family ties...this Ye surname's sisters are ungrateful and have caused her family to fall apart. Qiao Bao'er hates them through and through.

Hearing this, Lu Qinan on the side also understood.

His tone grew cold, and he raised his voice intentionally. "Just lock that Ye Qi up for ten or eight years. That way, she won't be able to cause any more trouble in the world."

On the phone, Ye Wei could clearly hear what Lu Qinian said, and she was even more angry, gritting her teeth wanting to retort.

But, what capital does one have.

Jo Baoer is right, the two sisters are nothing. They were originally abandoned children from the mountains who studied hard and squeezed into the big city just to have a better life and climb onto the Qiao family's ladder.

She is incomparable to Qiao Baoer.

The more this happened, the more Ye Wei felt that fate was unfair, and the more she hated this Qiao Miss who had been spoiled since childhood.

"Jo Bao'er, when you go back to the police station to give your statement later, I suggest you be careful with what you say. If Ye Xi gets a harsh sentence because of your wealthy friends, you'll regret it."

Qiao Bao'er found this woman particularly amusing. "You're threatening me at a time like this Ye Wei, you're three years older than me, and you actually have the nerve to tell others that you're my stepmother My dad is old enough to take you on as his goddaughter! You have no shame, it's truly invincible. I really don't understand what meaning your life holds."

" Qiao Bao'er, I am three years older than you, but all the pain I've encountered and know of is a thousand or ten thousand times greater than yours. I live just to survive, I want to have a good life!"

As an actress, Ye Wei is usually very good at acting. This time, it seems to have stimulated her, causing her to lose control and shout angrily.

"Why would Ye Xi drive straight at you without any reason"

"Why did your friend Zhu Xiaowei get hurt"

Yè Wèiyuè became more and more agitated, a sinister sneer creeping across her face, laced with palpable sarcasm. “Liú Yīyī, in an attempt to get revenge on you, intentionally provoked Yè Xì. Over this past year, Yè Xì's mental state has been severely damaged, leaving her mentally unstable. Liú Yīyī wanted to use a knife to kill you, but Zhū Xiǎowéi was unfortunately dragged into this mess. Qiáo Bǎo’ěr, all these misfortunes and harm inflicted upon everything are your fault. It's all because of you; it's you who caused this."

Qiao Bao'er's face paled for a moment, her hand clutching the phone tightly, not knowing how to refute.

Lu Qinian glanced at her and immediately snatched the phone from her hand. Without a word, he ended the call.

Ye Wei just spoke very loudly, and he could hear it.

"Wait a moment, I'll go to the police station with you." Lu Qinian also wanted to learn more about this traffic accident.

Qiao Bao'er adjusted her emotions, took back her phone, and said in a calm tone, "I won't compromise on Ye Xi's matter so easily."

Even if Ye Wei said those things just now, she wouldn't let Ye Xi off easily because Zhu Xiaowei was the one who got hurt this time.

Lu Qinan didn't say anything else.

It seems that the last thing Ye Wei said just now still had some effect on her.

Ye Wei, having witnessed the ugliness of this world, understood even better how to manipulate people. To deal with Qiao Baoer, she couldn't confront her head-on; she had to strike at her weaknesses. Qiao Baoer was arrogant and willful, but soft-hearted beneath it all.

It was around noon when the two of them found a nearby Chinese restaurant for lunch. They didn't have much appetite. During the meal, Gu Ruyue called to chat with her, mentioning that Qiao Wenyu's health had recovered but he needed to pay attention to his health care in the future.

Joe Bao'er responded to the matters concerning her family, as she always had, with indifference. She quickly hung up the phone.

"Joe, who are you closest to"

Lu Qinan saw that she had hung up the phone, and suddenly remembered this question. Because she didn't have any particular preferences, nothing seemed to hold her attention.

"My grandfather," she replied quickly.

After my grandfather passed away, it should have been my aunt.

Jo Baoer wasn't hungry. She held a fork, poking at a piece of pizza on her plate listlessly as she reminisced.

“My dad and grandma were pretty good to me when I was a kid. Actually, my mom and I weren't very close. Later, my dad cheated, and I had a falling out with the Qiao family. My mom was falsely accused by my dad and sent to prison. She committed suicide in prison. This event had a huge impact on me. At that time, I hated the Qiao family very much. Even though I don't hate them now, there's still a distance between us. You wouldn't understand. An incomplete family relationship means even when you meet, it feels awkward and distant.”

To have relatives is like having none at all.

Her bright eyes were a little dimmed, her voice soft. "Actually, I feel a bit...I don't know how to describe it, towards my aunt now. It's not as open and trusting as it was those few years when we depended on each other. Zhu is my best friend, and I'm afraid my problems would burden her life. So there are many things, even if I know them, I keep them to myself and don't want to tell anyone."

Qiao Bao'er couldn't remember when it started, but she increasingly didn't trust people.

No trust, no sense of belonging.

"Where is the Shepherd of that clan" Lu Qinian suddenly asked.

She said so much, and didn't mention Jun Zhi Mu at all.

Joe Bauer seemed to have not considered this name herself, her expression faltered for a moment.

"With no children, there's nothing left between us." She replied quickly, directly.

Lu Qinan looked at her earnest eyes, suddenly, he didn't know how to respond.pened with his fourth son and Jun Zhimu dragging Tang Yu into the hospital before. He frowned, "Regardless of what happened, you all knew each other before. He's being discharged today, you should go...
