My Identities Were All Exposed After I Was Pampered by Everyone at My Grandfather's House!-Chapter 46 - A Heated Argument

Qiao Yue was thoroughly convinced. Her second brother was such a serious and cold person. Why did he have such a funny assistant?

And he was still sniffing? Didn’t he notice that the two of them were staring at him?

“Focus on driving.” Qiao Jing said to his assistant to stop him from acting stupid.

“Yes, Master Jing.”

As if he was grabbed by the neck, the assistant quickly reverted to his usual appearance.

But because of this interruption from the assistant, the two of them did not continue their previous conversation.

As soon as they arrived at the Qiao residence, Qiao Yue followed Qiao Jing to the study. She didn’t want to, but the look in Qiao Jing’s eyes told her to follow him.

After closing the door to the study, Qiao Jing sat on the sofa, took off his glasses and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Qiao Yue wanted to massage Qiao Jing’s temples like last time, but she was stopped by Qiao Jing’s gaze.

“It wasn’t convenient to say too much in the car just now. Shouldn’t you tell me now what you were up to last night?” Qiao Jing looked at Qiao Yue sharply.

Qiao Yue was taken aback by Qiao Jing’s stare, and she frowned.

She felt close to Qiao Jing because he gave her the feeling of family, but she was not that close to him. Wasn’t he being too controlling by questioning her like this?

Qiao Yue lowered her eyes to avoid eye contact with Qiao Jing as she sat obediently across from him. But her words weren’t as obedient.

“Second brother, you knew from the start that I have a lot of secrets, why ask so much?”

Qiao Jing thought that Qiao Yue was close to him since he came back to the Qiao residence. He didn’t expect Qiao Yue to not give him face by not answering him.

Qiao Jing’s expression turned colder. “Qiao Yue, I won’t ask you too much about your past, but since you’ve joined the Qiao family, you’re a part of us. I’m responsible for your safety.”

Qiao Jing’s eyes fell on Qiao Yue’s bandaged neck as he said this.

Qiao Yue felt strange in her heart when she heard Qiao Jing’s words. It made her feel very uncomfortable.

“I’ll be responsible for my own safety. There are some things that I hope you won’t ask too much about. The Qiao family has not accepted me yet, so I’m not a part of the family yet.”

Qiao Jing’s face was frosty. This was the first time someone defied him in his face.

“Qiao Yue!” Qiao Jing’s voice suddenly rose two pitches.

Qiao Yue raised her head and looked into his eyes. The two of them were like two wild beasts defending their territory from the other party’s invasion.

“Qiao Yue, since you said so, I won’t care about you anymore. Don’t bring home the troubles you caused outside. Get someone else to help you solve them.”

Since Qiao Jing had said that, Qiao Yue felt that there was no need to continue the conversation. She gave Qiao Jing a mocking smile and turned to leave.

As soon as the door to the study opened, Qiao Yue came face to face with Qiao Jing’s assistant who was standing outside, about to knock on the door.

Qiao Yue glanced at him indifferently and left.

The assistant outside the door was confused. Weren’t they fine in the car just now? Why did the two of them fall out within ten minutes of entering the study?

After knocking on the door twice, the assistant said, “Master Jing, I’m here to deliver the documents for the collaboration.”

“Enter.”

…

Back in her room, Qiao Yue felt irritated everywhere she looked. How worried was Qiao Jing that she would cause trouble for the Qiao family that he had to keep asking? She had foolishly thought that Qiao Jing was on her side in the Qiao family.

Once Qiao Yue got angry, she felt the wound on her shoulder hurt even more.

No one would get used to pain. Even though she had suffered countless injuries since young and had walked on the edge of life and death many times, she wanted to talk about the pain, but no one let her.

Qiao Yue went into the bathroom and took off her clothes. Blood was already leaking out of the bandage. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Zhou Yun had told her that if there were any blood stains, she would need to remove the bandage and redress her wound. Zhou Yun had changed the bandage before she left, which by right should last her until the next morning. But Qiao Jing had upset her and sped up her blood circulation. Now she had to change the bandage before nightfall, and she couldn’t even ask for help. It’s indeed troublesome.

Just as Qiao Yue pushed open the bathroom door to get the first aid kit, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Qiao Yue frowned slightly. Who’s looking for her now? Third brother? Fourth brother?

“Coming.” Qiao Yue called out and put on her clothes before opening the door. But she didn’t expect the person outside the door at all.

“Master Yue, can we have a chat?”
