When Zijin returned to the room, he was still a little dizzy.
It has been five years since she married into the Qiao family, but she has never heard that Qiao Jinglian has an older brother.
So, when she heard the argument between Qiao Shiyun and Li Muhua at the door just now, was it actually because of this "brother"?
So, is this "brother" not Li Muhua's son, but... his half-brother?
According to Li Muhua's protective personality, if it were her own son, it would be impossible for him to not appear in the Qiao family for more than twenty years.
Thinking back to Qiao Shiyun's hesitant expression just now, the only possibility left is - half-mother!
But when I thought about it again, I realized it was no big deal.
Isn't this the kind of complicated relationship that a wealthy family has?
It would be strange if a "product" like an illegitimate child did not exist.
Zijin didn't dwell on this "brother" for too long. At worst, he would come back tomorrow and she would call him "big brother" too.
Standing in this luxuriously decorated wedding room after five years of absence, Zijin couldn't help but close his eyes——
Finally she came back, this place was her home, but it didn't feel like home at all.
All the luxurious decorations gave her the only feeling of being a golden cage.
She put her suitcase in the cloakroom, took another set of clothes, and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The best thing about being a young mistress of a wealthy family is that even if you don’t live there for 5 years, your room will still be spotless, and all the supplies in the bathroom are available. She soaked in the bathtub for a while, then got up and put on her pajamas.
When I left the bathroom, the room was still empty.
Her "husband" would definitely not come back today, but she was relieved, at least she didn't have to face a man suddenly.
When going to bed at night, Zijin felt a little uncomfortable with the bed. After all, she had slept in an apartment in the UK for 5 years and changed to a big bed. She tossed and turned for most of the night and couldn't sleep well. The next day, she woke up at dawn,
I decided to go to the hospital to see my father today.
When she was washing up, she found that she was in low spirits, so she found some cosmetics that she hadn't used for a long time and put on light makeup.
When she went downstairs to have breakfast, she was surprised to find that the mother and daughter of the Qiao family who hated her the most were not there. Only Qiao Shiyun was sitting in the dining room, flipping through the newspaper.
"Zijin, are you up?" Qiao Shiyun looked up and saw her coming downstairs, and immediately ordered the servant to prepare breakfast for her.
Zijin walked into the restaurant and said, "Dad, morning."
"Jinglian had something to do last night and didn't come back. I told him that he will be here soon." Qiao Shiyun raised his wrist and looked at the time. He also took Zijin's face into account and said so smoothly, "Sit down first."
Let's have breakfast, and Jinglian will take you to the hospital in a moment."
"Dad, actually it doesn't matter if I go by myself. Qiao...Jinglian is so busy, so there's no need to bother."
"No need to worry about it, he is your husband, and you should go and visit your father."
Qiao Shiyun folded the newspaper, and his cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller number, and Zijin saw his eyes suddenly light up, and then he couldn't wait to answer the phone.
"...won't it arrive tomorrow?"
Zijin's ears twitched slightly, listening to Qiao Shiyun's words, this person who "will not arrive until tomorrow" could be Qiao Jinglian's brother, right?
Sure enough, I heard him say again, "...are we here now? I'll ask the driver to pick you up right away."
Qiao Shiyun seemed very nervous. He stood up, made a gesture to Zijin to let her continue eating breakfast, and walked out of the restaurant.
The distance was a bit far, and Zijin vaguely seemed to hear him say something again: "...Someone has already gone to pick you up? Then I will wait for you at home..."
