Chapter 1351: What’s With Your Stepmother?
“I wonder if you’ll have time to come back for his banquet.”
Qiao Mianmian wasn’t surprised that Qiao Chen returned to the Mo family.
Qiao Chen had told her before.
Her only worry was Qiao Chen’s future.
Second Madam would definitely not let it go.
Thankfully, the Mo family, Mo Yesi, and Old Madam would help Qiao Chen, so she felt a little more at ease.
Qiao Mianmian thought about Madam Bai mentioning that Qiao Chen was reuniting with his family to hold the banquet. She thought for a while and told Mo Yesi about it.
Mo Yesi didn’t have any objections.
“If you return to the Bai family, the Bai family and the Mo family are indeed in-laws. The two families should have a meal and meet. How about this, I’ll let Grandma know first. You can set a time, and then our families can meet.”
This matter was settled.
They chatted for another half an hour before hanging up.
Mo Yesi had been so busy recently that he couldn’t come to City F.
He told Qiao Mianmian that he would be busy for about half a month.
He hadn’t had the time to look for her in F City for the past two weeks.
This was the first time they were really apart.
Qiao Mianmian didn’t think that she was a clingy woman. She wouldn’t be reluctant to part with him so soon after they parted.
But she wasn’t used to lying on the huge bed alone.
She started to miss Mo Yesi’s arms.
…
The next day, the shoot went smoothly as usual.
Halfway through the morning shoot, during the intermission, Nana walked to Qiao Mianmian with a bottle of water.
“Mianmian, you’re on Weibo again.” Nana handed the water to Qiao Mianmian and hesitated for a while before saying in a low voice, “Was the woman who came to look for you yesterday your stepmother? I just saw a news article. She was interviewed by an entertainment magazine. She said bad things about you in the interview.”
Qiao Mianmian’s cell phone rang.
She saw that it was Linda calling her and didn’t have time to ask Nana about the trending topic. She immediately picked up the call.
“Mianmian, what’s wrong with your stepmother?” Linda asked directly. “She accused you of being ungrateful in the interview. She said that you were cruel and ruthless to your own sister and even angered your father so much that he’s in the hospital.
“The public opinion is on her side now. Many people believe her and are calling you unfilial.
“Didn’t your stepmother have nothing to do with you? Why did she suddenly jump out to frame you?”
Qiao Mianmian frowned.
She recalled what Lin Huizhen said to her yesterday.
“Mianmian, your other problems aren’t too serious. But if others think that you’re unfilial and bad to your family, it’ll be serious. I know your stepmother must be talking nonsense and deliberately harming you, but the netizens don’t know.
“You have to clarify this quickly.”
Linda hung up quickly.
Nana said anxiously, “Sister Linda called, right? She must have called you because of that. Mianmian, your stepmother is so disgusting. You don’t know how she framed you in the interview.
“She cried and complained. I didn’t expect her acting to be so good.”
