Chapter 937: Not a Good Person
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Qiao Yanjue had just returned home when he saw Xia Xibei sitting on the sofa, not looking too happy.
He immediately walked up and asked, “What’s wrong? Who upset you?”
Xia Xibei looked up at him, “Who else could it be?”
“Xia Jun?” Qiao Yanjue’s face went cold. “What did he do?”
Xia Xibei snorted, “Do you know why he asked to see me today?”
“Why?”
“There was another man there.”
Qiao Yanjue immediately responded, “Qiao Haoming?”
“How did you guess?”
This time, it was Xia Xibei’s turn to be surprised.
“Who else could it be?” Qiao Yanjue’s eyes turned cold. “I’ve met Xia Jun once or twice before.”
“Oh? What kind of person is he?”
Xia Xibei was curious. She had been “reunited with her family” for more than a month, but she hadn’t had much interaction with Xia Jun, and she hadn’t talked much about him.
“Arrogant and obsessed with money.”
Qiao Yanjue’s comment was not polite at all.
Although Xia Jun was Xia Xibei’s father, he knew that she would not really treat him like a father.
He and Xia Xibei had been together for so long, and he naturally understood her.
She looked strong on the outside, and was also quite strong and cold on the inside.
However, as long as one found a way, one could slowly soften her up.
Xia Jun, with his character, could not possibly get her to soften toward him.
This girl’s temperament would not allow her to treat Xia Jun differently or give in to him because of his ident.i.ty as her “father.”
Therefore, he was not afraid of Xia Xibei’s displeasure.
“You’re right,” Xia Xibei nodded in agreement. “He is exactly this kind of person! So, it’s really not surprising that he would bring Qiao Haoming over today!”
“Indeed, it’s not surprising,” Qiao Yanjue also nodded. “I’ve seen him bringing Xia Qinghan to meet Qiao Haoming and his father before.”
“How was it?”
“It was a good thing that Xia Qinghan liked Qiao Haoming.”
Xia Xibei froze for a moment before she figured out what he meant.
“It would be a tragedy if Xia Qinghan didn’t like Qiao Haoming.”
“Right.” Qiao Yanjue gave her an appreciative kiss. “Xia Jun is not a good father. He would only be good to Xia Qinghan if she did what he wanted her to do.”
Xia Xibei nodded, “I understand.”
If Xia Qinghan liked someone who couldn’t bring him benefits, Xia Jun would definitely have a different att.i.tude.
“Such a father… It’s so disappointing!” Xia Xibei shook her head and sighed.
“It’s okay. If you don’t want to deal with him, just ignore him.” Qiao Yanjue looked justified. “He wouldn’t dare to do anything to you.”
“He even tried to beat me up today!” Xia Xibei wrinkled her little nose and hummed.
“What?” Qiao Yanjue’s face instantly darkened, looking her up and down. “He tried to hit you? Are you okay?”
Xia Xibei was going to say no, but on second thought, she nodded with a bit of resignation, “Yes.”
“What did he do to you?!”
Qiao Yanjue’s expression became even more frightening.
“My hand hurts.” Xia Xibei lifted her hand in aggravation. “His skin is so thick.”
The corners of Qiao Yanjue’s mouth twitched for a moment before he pulled her hand over in amus.e.m.e.nt and examined it carefully. “Then he deserved it! He made your hand hurt!”
“That’s right!” Xia Xibei said unhappily. “Luckily, I kicked him!”
“Let me see if your foot is hurt.”
