AKIT7 158




Chapter 158


Xiao Qiao suddenly sat up from the bed with a gloomy expression on her face.

She dreamed about things from her previous life again.

In her previous life, she was trapped in that fool's body. Unable to speak or move, she had to face the life of being ridiculed every day. Then there was a Da Qiao beside her for comparison!

So after she found out that she was reborn again, she wanted to kill Da Qiao. Unexpectedly, Da Qiao was too lucky. She survived even when she fell into the pit trap!

She and Huo Cai Jun had been in the Shen City for almost two years. She originally thought that Shen City was full of gold and with her prediction of the future, she will be able to make a lot of money as soon as she got here. Unforeseen, things weren’t simple as they imagined.

The two of them had no start-up capital. So they can only start from small things. She had thought about selling her ideas to others. However, the first problem was that she had no access to rich bosses at all. Second, she was afraid of her secret being discovered by the other party and get controlled by the other party.

She had seen many such things in other books. She dared not take risks with herself against sinister hearts.

Relying on themselves to accumulate start-up funds bit by bit was tedious. First, they went near the station to sell food. Day in, day out, they fared against the weather. Not only were they exhausted, they also had to pay various protection fees. Once the money falls into their hands, it wasn’t much at all!

The most annoying thing was that Huo Cai Jun was lazy and useless. She didn't understand how he became the richest man in the previous life!

Moreover, they had been in Shen City so long and had never found out about his biological father's whereabouts. These depressing days made her lose patience day by day!

At this moment, the door was pushed open with a squeak. Huo Cai Jun walked in from the outside.

Xiao Qiao glanced at him before lay down again. Then she pulled up the quilt to cover her head.

Huo Cai Jun came over and sat by the bed. He placed his hands on her slim body: "Jiao Jiao, what’s wrong? Are you still angry with me?"

Xiao Qiao stretched out a hand from under the quilt and heavily slapped his hand away, "Don't touch me!"

Huo Cai Jun's complexion instantly darkened: "Jiao Jiao, what are you doing? Are you disdaing me, Huo Cai Jun, for being useless now?"

They had been in Shen City for almost two years. Her attitude toward him was changing day by day. He wasn’t fool. He can naturally see this.

He felt that Jiao Jiao had always looked down on him and treated him with an attitude of being superior. Just like when he was still on the farm, she would give him food every once in a while. He was indeed very grateful to her at that time.

But he was no longer a wicked one. Neither was more noble than anyone else. Why should she look down on him?

Besides, she was a weak woman who came to Shen City. If it wasn't for him, the man, she would had been eaten by others long ago!

"What are you thinking about all day long? I haven't thought that. By the way, you should go to open the shop today. I'm not feeling well. I'll go there in the afternoon!"

Xiao Qiao felt irk at the sound of his voice. But she didn't want to give up on him just yet.

Huo Cai Jun was like a chicken rib to her now. Tasteless to eat, but also a pity to discard it!

Huo Cai Jun saw how perfuntory her words were. When speaking, she didn't even look at him from the beginning to the end. His face became even more ugly.

A gloomy glint flashed in his eyes while he said on the surface: "Okay, I'll go then. This is the breakfast I bought for you. The soy milk is still hot. You can drink it now."

Xiao Qiao originally wanted to say put it there and she’ll drink it later. However, they had quarreled a good few times in the past few days. The relationship was very tense. Now Huo Cai Jun was willing to bow his head. If she refuses, the relationship between the two will only get worse.

She still doesn't want to give up tasteless chicken rib Huo Cai Jun. So she swallowed the irritability in her heart, sat up, and drank the soy milk.

Huo Cai Jun watched her eat both the soy milk and the steamed stuffed bun with a strange smile on his lips.

Xiao Qiao found his reaction a little strange. A niggling feeling surged in her heart. The next moment, her head began to feel dizzy.

Her complexion changed at once. The ominous feeling in her heart became more and more intense: "I...why am I so dizzy? You put.. in soy milk..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she fell backwards. She was knocked out.

Huo Cai Jun looked at her with a sneer. Then he began to rummage through the boxes. After a long while, he found for the deed of the shop that had hidden by her under the bed.

How sneaky! To actually stick the property deed on the back of the bed. No wonder he couldn't find it before!

Holding the house deed certificate, he glanced at Xiao Qiao's curvy figure. His adam’s apple bobbed. In the end, he rushed out without touching her.

By the time Xiao Qiao woke up, it was already too late.

The store she had saved for two years was sold by Huo Cai Jun. And all the valuables in the house were taken away by him. Not a dime was left for her!

Xiao Qiao was so pissed that she almost vomited blood. She smashed everything in the rental house!

——

The weather was getting colder and colder. The dripping water turned into ice.

Da Qiao originally thought about skipping a grade in her third year. But she finished all her second year’s subjects ahead of time. So she advanced her plan.

She had already submitted an application to the department for skipping grades. In this year’s final exam, she will take the exam along with the third years. If her grades can reach above excellent, the school will approve the application for skipping grades.

When the third years saw Da Qiao walk into the classroom, all eyes were on her.

All the third-year students recognise this junior sister, Da Qiao. After all, as a flower in their Finance and Economics Department. As soon as she came to register, a sensation stirred through the entire department at once.

The news that she was the top scorer in the college entrance examination was dug up by everyone. What they didn't expect was the junior sister to be so powerful and finish two years of courses in just one year!

How embarrassing was this for them as senior brothers and sisters?

Da Qiao was used to other people's eyes focusing on her. As long as these gazes were harmless, she wouldn’t care.

She found her seat and sat down. The pen and paper were taken. After that, she quietly waited for the invigilator to arrive.

Suddenly, a girl sitting behind her poked her back with a pen.

Turning around, she softly spoke, "Senior Sister, are you looking for me?"

The girl's eyes fell on her fair and smooth face. She said enviously: "Junior Sister, I heard that your family sells dried roses, which are good for the skin after drinking. Is it true?"

When the girl poked Da Qiao, the boys’ ears pricked up, wanting to hear what questions she would ask. They didn't expect such a precious opportunity was to ask such useless topics. What a waste!

Da Qiao pursed her lips into a slight smile, "If the dried roses are bought from my shop, it will indeed be useful. If you buy them from other places, then I can't guarantee the effect!"

After Cai Ru Nan consumed the dried roses she gave her, her skin got better day by day. In addition, she started to pay attention to dressing up after falling in love. It had immediately attracted the attention of other girls.

So many people asked her what skin care products she used. At first, she didn't want to say. But she couldn't win against people asking her every day. In the end, she explained that she used the dried roses that Da Qiao gave her.

After everyone knew about it, they came to Da Qiao one after another, wanting to buy dried roses from her.

Da Qiao remembered what happened in high school. So she told them to go to her family’s store to buy them. She won't sell them herself.

Only then did everyone know that Da Qiao's family was so rich. She was actually a heiress!

Some people went to the store to buy it. It was effective as soon as it was consumed. So the reputation of dried roses gradually spread in schools.

Da Qiao was worried that someone will sell counterfeit dried roses. So the dried roses she grew were only sold in her family's store. This way, it can prevent subsequent troubles.

When the senior sister heard this, her eyes fell on her flawless face again. She instantly made up her mind, "Okay, I'll buy it after the exam!"

After finishing speaking, the invigilator came in. Da Qiao quickly turned around.

Da Qiao had completed all her second year subjects by herself and had mastered them thoroughly. So the test questions for this final exam weren’t difficult for her.

Exam week passed in the blink of an eye like a tense cloud.

After the exam, everyone packed up their things again and prepared to go home for the New Year.

This time, Da Qiao wasn’t the only perosn Cai Ru Nan couldn’t bear to part. There was an addition of Tang Han Hai.

At first, Da Qiao wasn’t very optimistic about Tang Han Hai. After all, the first impression he left on her was too terrible. In addition, he also have a vicious younger cousin sister, Tang Miao Shan. So it was really difficult for her to have a good impression of him.

Tang Han Hai had become a changed man. Not did he seriously went to work in his dad's factory every day, but also picked up his textbooks to study again under Cai Ru Nan's supervision.

The ones who was happiest with Tang Han Hai’s change wasn’t Cai Ru Nan, but Tang Han Hai's family members. Especially Tang Han Hai's dad. He even hid secretly and wiped away tears a few times.

He thought this son would be useless in this life. Every time he woke up at night, what he worried most was that after they left, his son would starve to death!

That day, when Tang Han Hai suddenly went home and told him that he was going to work, he looked at him like he had seen a ghost. He couldn’t recover his senses for a long time.

At first, he thought it was passing interest for his son. He had even suspected that he was doing this to cheat money from him. Later, he witnessed his son punctually coming to the factory to work every day and asked the factory's old masters for advice. Only then, he believed he had really reformed!

He inquired from his group of gangster friends. The reason for such a change was because of a female college student. She told him to do this.

After he found out, he secretly told the news to other members of the family. The family members were very grateful to the girl and looked forward to Tang Han Hai bringing her home.

Right at this moment, Cai Ru Nan was hugging Da Qiao. She remarked with a look of reluctance: "I won't see you for a few months. I don't even want to go back!"

Da Qiao hooked her lips and pushed her lightly: "Your match is waiting for you below. SHouldn’t you hurry up?"

Cai Ru Nan curled her lips and said, "Let him wait!"

At the side, Song Yu Lian was also packing up her things. Hearing this, she suddenly yelled to Chen Xiao Lan: "My match is waiting for me below. I won't wait for you. See you next year!"

This semester, Song Yu Lian started dating. It was heard the guy was a third year in the Department of Mechanical Engineering who came from the same place as her.

An envious glance flashed from Chen Xiao Lan's eyes and she responded, "Oh, alright See you next year!"

Song Yu Lian used to be very envious and jealous that Da Qiao and Cai Ru Nan had a match. Especially toward Cai Ru Nan.

In her opinion, Cai Ru Nan looks like a he-woman. She never thought that such a person would be wanted by a man. And would find a match before her. She couldn’t accept it.

So when her senior brother from the same village pursued her, she only held back for a moment before agreeing.

At this moment, she walked past the two of them with her chest up and a proud expression on her face.

Seeing her like this, Cai Ru Nan's eyes almost rolled up to the ceiling.

Seeing her like this, Da Qiao couldn't help pursing her lips in amusement.

After packing up their things, they went downstairs together.

When Huo Chi and Tang Han Hai saw their match, they immediately went to take their suitcase.

As boyfriends, both of them were very considerate. However, Tang Han Hai was a novice. He was soon overshadowed by Huo Chi.

He put the coat he prepared early on on Da Qiao. Then a hand warmer pack was taken out of his pocket and placed in her hand: "Take this to warm your hands. Don't freeze."

Da Qiao raised her head and curled her lips: "Thank you Elder Brother Huo Chi!"

Huo Chi dotingly looked at her: "Let's go. I have prepared a lot of food in the car. There’s ginger and sugar water. After you get in the car, take a sip to rid off the chill."

Facing such a caring object, Da Qiao felt warm in her heart.

While on the other side, Cai Ru Nan looked at Tang Han Hai who was empty-handed. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Is that how you came here?"

No hand warmer, no jacket, no food. Just brought himself here?

Under this cold wintry weather, Tang Han Hai broke out in a cold sweat: "...About that, Cai Cai, I have no experience. I will definitely change next time!"

Angry, Cai Ru Nan pouted her mouth.

Sure enough, comparison makes a man miserable!

But when she reached the school gate, her anger dissipated.

Because she saw Song Yu Lian carrying a few heavy luggage bags and the person standing next to her didn't seem to want to share the burden for her.

Sure enough, comparison makes a man miserable!

She walked in front of Song Yu Lian with her chest puffed up. Under the other party’s gaze she got into the car driven by Tang Han Hai and departed away.

Song Yu Lian watched two people in her dorm got into the car and left. And she had to wait here for other fellow villagers to come over. Afterward, they’ll a long way to squeeze into a bus. A burst of irritation sprouted in her heart

——

After the holiday started, the year end was getting closer and closer.

On this day, Da Qiao, her grandfather, her grandmother, and several younger siblings went shopping for new year's goods together.

Although her family runs a store, some things were still unavailable and need to be bought in a department store.

After shopping around, everyone's hands were full.

Suddenly, a boy with very handsome facial features walked towards him. Da Qiao recognized him as little Dong Yun's little friend in the choir.

The reason why she knew him was because little Dong Yun had once came back from the choir, took out a photo, and pointed to a little boy on it. She told her that she liked that little boy very much. He was good-looking and sang very well .

Da Qiao wasn’t worried about younger sister falling in love at such a young age. After all, look at her innocent expression. She didn’t understanc anything. She chatted with her like a friend about him.

Since then, she had often heard things about this little boy.

That was why she recognized him immediately when she saw him.

She touched little Dong Yun and pointed out, "Dong Yun, isn't that your little friend in the choir? Do you want to go up and say hello to him?"

She thought little Dong Yun would definitely nod and say yes. Instead, she saw her head shake, "Elder Sister, I don't like him anymore!"

Da Qiao was stumped for a moment: "Why don't you like him all of a sudden?"

Little Dong Yun sighed like a little grown-up: "One time when the choir was practicing, I saw him secretly scratching his butthole with his hand. So I don't like him anymore!!"

Da Qiao: "………………"
