Chapter 608
Li Qiao stepped into the foyer concentratingly, and came to the entrance of the living room with light steps, and a conversation came slowly.
"Xiaoyan has no bad intentions. He has become the deputy secretary-general of the Nanyang Secretariat by himself. In terms of ability and character, at least he is better than you."
This voice is extraordinarily gentle, like the soft words of Wu Nong from Jiangnan, even if the words are contemptuous, they still can't stop the gentleness of the soft words.
Li Qiao stopped in her tracks, the corners of her lips twitched evilly, and her eyes were cold.
It turned out to be Mrs. Xiao.
From the moment Li Qiao escaped from the border to now, she has been investigating what happened to Emperor Yan along the way.
She really thought he was back on business, but she didn't expect such a big surprise tonight.
Back in Shang Yu's study, she heard Mrs. Xiao's recognizable voice on the phone for the first time, which still left a deep impression on her.
That kind of gentle timbre hurts people, like a blunt knife grinding flesh, not sharp, but it breaks people's hearts every inch.
For example, at this moment, her so-called Xiaoyan is Xiao Yeyan, the stepson who framed her elder brother Li Jun.
Obviously her methods are despicable and her character is low, but she described her as outstanding.
Li Qiao suddenly understood one thing.
Shang Yu's paranoia may be due to the fact that she has been tormenting and suppressing him on the psychological and spiritual levels with this kind of "teaching" guidance for a long time.
It's hard to imagine that she taught Shang Yu's medical skills with her own hands, so when she slandered him for the first time, she must have left an indelible mark on his heart.
Li Qiao stood there expressionless, her eyes were full of frost, and she was filled with anger.
Such a good man, how did she turn black and white against her conscience?
At this time, the crisp sound of the teacup being placed on the coffee table attracted Li Qiao's attention.
Then came Shang Yu's low and mocking voice, "Since Mrs. Xiao thinks that he has outstanding abilities, it should not be difficult to return to the position of Deputy Secretary-General of Nanyang on her own."
"That's natural." Mrs. Xiao sat on the sofa, with her back straight and her knees together, her sitting posture was the standard of a noble lady, "So I'll send him back this time, and from now on, you will each rely on your own abilities. In addition, I also want to give you a piece of advice, don't try to hurt him again."
Shang Yu crossed his legs and leaned sideways on the back of the chair. Hearing this, he raised his brows, his eyes were as deep as the sea, "You also said that each depends on his own ability, even if he gets injured, it is inevitable."
Mrs. Xiao folded her hands on her knees, touched her nails, and smiled softly: "You are right, after all, it's not like you haven't killed your own brother before."
In an instant, the air in the living room seemed to be still.
Li Qiao raised her eyes suddenly, and a trace of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
Killing his own brother...
Shangyu?
Mrs. Xiao said these words in a lively manner, but it is not difficult to hear the hatred hidden in them.
The word 'hand blade' was especially clear when she said it.
So, this is the reason why their mother and son turned against each other?
The silence continued to spread, like a wall isolating everything from the outside world.
Li Qiao put down all her guesses and raised her foot to enter the door, but she heard Mrs. Xiao smile again and said, "Why don't you speak? Did you also remember how miserable your brother died at that time? Broken hands, broken legs , the bloody pool is really unforgettable."
At this moment, Li Qiao had fine pimples all over her body.
Mrs. Xiao described her son's death in a tone of laughing at Yanyan.
It seemed that it had nothing to do with him, but it was even more terrifying.
Mrs. Xiao dragged Shang Yu into hell step by step with her gentle protective look.
She tirelessly put him in the shackles of her younger brother, tortured him physically and mentally, and destroyed him.
Li Qiao closed her eyes, an unprecedented desire to protect grew from the bottom of her heart.
Her pretty face was frosty, her eyes were dark and wrapped in coldness, she walked slowly with her legs open, and her light tone resounded at the entrance of the living room, "It really sounds unforgettable."
Li Qiao's appearance was unexpected.
In the living room, apart from Shang Yu and Mrs. Xiao, there was also a row of solemn black-clothed bodyguards standing behind Mrs. Xiao with their hands behind their hands.
Under the bright crystal lamp, Shang Yu faced Mrs. Xiao alone.
The light was very bright, without warmth, and it fell on his whole body, making him look more and more alone.
Li Qiao threw the briefcase in her hand on the coffee table, walked forward and sat in the middle of the sofa.
She crossed her legs and turned her face to look at Mrs. Xiao Ming Dailan. When their eyes met, they were both startled.
Li Qiao didn't expect that she was so beautiful.
Mrs. Xiao didn't expect her face...to be so familiar.
Ming Dailan is over fifty years old, and she is still so beautiful that it attracts attention.
Years and age did not make her beautiful, but added to her elegant style and graceful charm.
And Shang Yu and Ming Dailan are 70% similar.
She was once shocked by Shang Yu's appearance, but now she has found the source in Ming Dailan.
At the same time, Ming Dailan was also looking at Li Qiao, with a light smile on her lips, making her look extraordinarily gentle and elegant.
The moment Li Qiao appeared, Shang Yu's aura suddenly changed. Although he didn't look at her, his fingers on the armrest clenched into fists.
He lowered his head halfway, his posture seemed lazy and leisurely, but he was uncontrollably stiff.
After all, it failed to prevent her from going back to Nanyang, and after all, she heard about the dark past.
"No wonder Shang Zonghai wanted to write your name into the genealogy despite the opposition of the Elder Hall, so... so." At this time, Ming Dailan looked away from Li Qiao, expressing a deep emotion.
Li Qiao bent her lips calmly, leaning on the sofa and narrowing her eyes, "Does Mrs. Xiao always like to play tricks?"
Ming Dailan's smile remained undiminished, her voice was still slow and soft, "Little girl, since you don't understand, why ask me to humiliate yourself?"
Li Qiao smiled secretly, raised her eyebrows bluntly and frankly, her expression was a bit flamboyant and a bit willful, "Are you sure I don't understand? You should know Jing Yilan too."
Ming Dailan looked at her without changing her face, and after a few seconds, she sighed with a little regret: "I really know her, but it's a pity... If you are too sharp, you will leave hidden dangers."
This is a pun.
When Li Qiao faced Ming Dailan, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and even maintained a consistent calm and calm facial expression.
She will not underestimate any opponent, let alone Ming Dailan who is good at playing psychological tactics.
She can become the mistress of the Shang family and marry the Duke's mansion again. Apart from her beautiful skin, she must also be blessed with wisdom.
What's more, she is still Shang Yu's mother.
If Shang Yu hated her, he would definitely not use the honorific title all the time.
And Ming Dailan used all means to suppress and destroy, presumably relying on Shang Yu's guilt.
The younger brother who was 'slashed' by him was probably the beginning of the collapse of their relationship.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through my mind, in fact, it was only a blink of an eye.
