Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 558 - 532: Thin Skin and Generous Filling

Chapter 558: Chapter 532: Thin Skin and Generous Filling

Xiao Qian turned to look at Father Liao with a hint of triumphant satisfaction in her eyes. It was easy to communicate with smart people since they knew each other’s thoughts.

“Uncle, since you’ve already figured it out, I won’t pretend. I admit you’re quite good, but I don’t want my mother to live in uncertainty every day. And your performance today made me decide to take back my first impression of you. You’re not as gentle and kind as you appear to be.”

Father Liao chuckled, “Only with truth can there be goodness. I am a rather honest person.”

Xiao Qian wanted to laugh…

This was nothing but an old fox in sheep’s clothing! He was simply an old schemer!

“As for your concern, I guarantee it won’t happen. The place I live in now is my previous house. The security in the old residential area is not very good, so I plan to move to a closed community. No more idle people will enter my home.”

Xiao Qian raised an eyebrow, “You’re not moving to the new house where our family lives, are you?”

Now, Jia Xiufang is living in a rented house, and they can only move into the house after the demolition and resettlement are finished later this year.

Father Liao smiled slightly, “Exactly, being close to her makes it easier to take care of her.”

Clearly, he planned for a long-term roundabout strategy.

“Hehe… Can a dean be so thick-skinned?”

What was this called, relentlessly chasing?

This old man was quite persistent, even buying a house in the same community as Jia Xiufang. It showed his sincerity towards her.

“Deans also have the right to pursue happiness.”

“May I ask what you see in my mom, exactly?”

“I admire her unconditional maternal love for her child and her down-to-earth nature. The fact that she raised you, a child like you, is enough to prove that she is not an ordinary woman. At least in my eyes, she is special.”

Xiao Qian really wanted to read some hypocrisy from his eyes, but based on her years of clinical experience, she concluded that this old schemer was telling the truth.

Some describe middle-aged love as an old house catching fire: if it doesn’t catch, it’s fine; but if it does, it burns fiercely, and no one can stop it.

“Please treat this extraordinary woman in your eyes well. If I find out that you make her sad, you’ve met my fiancé. You know what he does for a living. Breaking bricks with one hand is not a problem for him, let alone people. You know what to do—tell my mom that I’m going back to school when you pay the bill.”

Xiao Qian stood up, ready to leave for real this time.

“Won’t you go back and see her?”

“She probably wants to see you more right now. Let me repeat, be good to my mom. If you dare to bully her—”

“Old Yu Family won’t let me off, I understand. Girl, how come you suddenly agreed to my relationship with your mother?”

“I’m just not against it. How things turn out in the future depends on your performance. She may not like you, so don’t blame me for it. I neither support nor oppose it.”

Having seen many people in his life, Father Liao could tell that Xiao Qian was a very exceptional child. She was unpretentious and unfathomable, without any impatience that children of her age should have.

Xiao Qian had thoroughly investigated Father Liao, and Father Liao had learned about Xiao Qian too. He knew that Xiao Qian was opposed to his pursuit of Jia Xiufang and investigated her. And this investigation revealed something big.

She turned out to be the fourth daughter-in-law of the Yu Family. The Yu Family was no ordinary family. The fact that she was accepted by the entire Yu Family indicated her steadiness. However, it didn’t matter if she was the future daughter-in-law of the Yu Family or had a higher position. Liao’s pursuit of Jia Xiufang had nothing to do with it. Father Liao would retire in a few years anyway, and he didn’t have much desire for power. He didn’t want to climb any connections with Xiao Qian’s future in-laws, no matter how powerful they were.

“But previously, you seemed like you wouldn’t give any chance. Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?” Father Liao asked.

“Because in my heart, my mom is the best woman. I want to make her happy. Whoever makes her unhappy, I will deal with them. It’s that simple.”

Xiao Qian didn’t hide her true nature in front of Father Liao. She had to state her position first.

In her heart, family was sacred and untouchable. It was the reverse scale in her heart; whoever dared to touch it would be dealt with. The Second Uncle’s family was the perfect example.Xiao Qian left Liao’s father with a fierce back shadow after speaking harsh words. To Liao’s father, Xiao Qian’s fierceness not only didn’t offend him, but it proved that the child had her mother in her heart and appreciated Jia Xiufang’s unconditional motherly love.

“This child is truly considerate, it’s great to have daughters. Xiufang has educated her well,” Liao’s father muttered to himself while looking at Xiao Qian’s retreating figure.

Suddenly, he realized that everything this child had done before was to show him that she had the capability to protect her mother and to test his attitude!

If he hadn’t met Xiao Qian’s expectations and lowered his stance to have such a conversation with her, he wouldn’t even have been able to touch Jia Xiufang’s sleeve!

Heaven had helped him, allowing him to get injured for Jia Xiufang’s sake and take care of her. Xiao Qian had seen all this and lowered her assessment difficulty for him.

Otherwise, with this child’s cunning nature, if these things hadn’t happened, who knows what kind of tests she would’ve come up with for him, and if he failed, he would never see Xiufang again.

But she wasn’t someone who didn’t understand boundaries. After seeing his sincerity, she hinted to him that Jia Xiufang had a strong backing, and then let go.

Such a considerate, sensible, intelligent, and sharp child, who protected her mother without a single leak and wouldn’t obstruct her mother’s happiness. Xiufang was fortunate to have such a daughter.

Thinking that such a sweet niece might become his own daughter in the future, his mood improved again.

After leaving the coffee shop, Xiao Qian didn’t go straight back to school but headed straight to the computer city. She spent a lot of money on a computer. Although she knew it had a mediocre configuration from her experienced perspective, it was considered decent by current standards.

She took the computer home, found her dumb brother, and severely punished him for his behavior of slapping others. She increased his homework, and after ending Chen Zilong’s pleasant sick leave with his little friends, Xiao Qian got on the car back to school.

Actually, she really wanted to go to the hospital to see her mother and accompany her.

But she knew that her mother wanted Liao’s father to be with her even more right now.

“Sister, I heard you’re a psychologist, right?” The driver who was driving Xiao Qian was one of Big Brother Yu’s men. He was close to Big Brother Yu and knew that his boss’s sibling was an extraordinary psychologist.

“Yes.”

“Can you help me analyze it? My daughter has been sticking to me lately, and she interrupts me five times in half an hour when I’m doing something at home. It’s really delaying my work. Does she have some mental illness?”

Xiao Qian smiled faintly, “Is the child still under five?”

“Yes, she just turned four.”

“Go home and spend more time with her. This child needs you.”

“Ah? There’s no problem?”

“Her actions express her inner thoughts. You must have spent less time with her lately. She’s seeking your attention by interrupting you. Just spend more time with her, and it’ll be fine. It’s not a mental illness, just a child longing for her father’s company.”

“So that’s why! Thank you, Dr. Chen!” The driver suddenly understood.

“Whether parents or children, when they need it, reach out and hold their hands tightly so they don’t feel lonely. Holding their hands is love, but when the time is right, let go and let them explore their own lives, giving them their own space to live. That’s also love.”

“Dr. Chen, your words are so insightful!” The driver admired Xiao Qian immensely.

Xiao Qian hooked the corner of her mouth, looking out the car window at the still busy street. Every time she left home for school, her heart would be uneasy about her mother, but this time was different.

It was time to let go. Her mother’s hand would be entrusted to another man now. What she had to do was to release her mother’s hand and stand behind her to protect her quietly. If anyone dared to bully her mother, she would wipe out their entire family.

Behind every person hides a heart, and behind every action lies the inner needs. Finding the right way to untie the knots in their hearts is her job.

When Xiao Qian first returned, she hated thinking about the future. She only wanted to kill everyone she disliked and exile herself. But now, it was different.

She drew a heart shape on the car window and seemed to see Yu Minglang’s face in her mind.

It was him who made her have such expectations.

Though there might be countless medical cases waiting for her, the only thing she wanted to explore and discover was this heart. She didn’t know if tomorrow would be better, but at this moment, she was filled with anticipation.
