My Identities Were All Exposed After I Was Pampered by Everyone at My Grandfather's House!

161 Homecoming of Old Master Qiao

Because of the information Trand had provided, Qiao Yue wanted to continue with the investigation immediately but the old master’s trip home disrupted her plans.

Homecoming of Old Master Qiao. By right, the whole family should be there to welcome him but Qiao Que was injured and it was inconvenient for her to go to the airport. Qiao Yu, Qiao Ying and all had also school, so the responsibility of picking up the old master fell on the first and the third madams. Naturally, Qiao Jing had to be there as well.

According to Qiao Yu, Qiao Jing wanted to fly the old master back using a private jet, but the old master thought that it was too ostentatious and refused.

Qiao Yue wheeled herself to a floor-to-ceiling window. From there, she’d be able to see them the moment they came home.

Trand had told her that her mother had documents about several international organizations. Although her mother grew up in the Qiao family, she was only an adopted daughter. Even if the Qiao family had documents about these organizations, they would not give them to her. After eliminating the possibilities, the only person who might give these things to her mother was Qiao Yue’s father.

!!

Considering her father’s job as a military instructor, Qiao Yue suspected that the documents contained information about these organizations’ crimes, hideouts, and such.

However, she needed someone to confirm her suspicion. And that person was Old Master Qiao, her maternal grandfather.

Qiao Yue sighed at the thought of this. From her grandfather’s previous reaction, he didn’t want her to investigate the matter but she couldn’t back down now.

Moreover, she had another suspicion, that these documents might be related to her mother’s exile and Qiao Xin’s claim that her mother had stolen from the Qiao family.

Seconds and minutes passed. After an hour, the few members of the Qiao family finally appeared at the door. Qiao Yue moved her wheelchair to meet them.

Qiao Xuan and Old Master Qiao didn’t look surprised when they saw Qiao Yue in a wheelchair. Qiao Jing must have told them everything on the way home.

Old Master Qiao’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions when he heard Qiao Jing explain the reason for Qiao Yue’s injuries. There was relief, but also disappointment, as if he had some other thoughts. Old Master Qiao asked Qiao Xuan to push him back to his room as he didn’t want to see anyone else.

Old Master Qiao’s strange behavior confused Qiao Yue. When she saw Qiao Xuan come out, she went up to him and asked, “Big brother, what’s wrong with Grandpa?”

Qiao Yue had a slight frown on her face. She didn’t understand why the old master’s attitude was so different when he saw her this time.

Qiao Xuan walked to Qiao Yue’s wheelchair and patted her head with a smile. “It’s nothing. Maybe Grandpa is reminded of your mother.”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the first and third madams of the Qiao family didn’t look well.

Back when Qiao Yue’s mother was still living at the Qiao residence, she was the one most doted on family member. She didn’t look like she was adopted at all, more like a real little princess envied by many.

They were all women from prominent families, but some of them became tools for marriage, while others were pampered like treasures and even found the man they liked.

If it wasn’t for what happened later and Qiao Qing’s passing at such a young age, they wouldn’t have let Qiao Yue return to the Qiao family.

Qiao Yue’s eyes lit up when Qiao Xuan mentioned her mother. She asked quickly, “Big brother, do you know my mother well?”

Qiao Xuan smiled and said, “I know her a little, but not too well.”

Qiao Jing frowned and looked at his brother. He did not want Qiao Yue to get too involved in matters of the past.

Qiao Xuan gave Qiao Jing a comforting smile and pushed Qiao Yue into the study, without a care for the first and third madams, who were left looking at each other in the living room.

The first madam looked at Qiao Jing and frowned. The third madam looked calm on the outside but was panicking inside.

When she first married into the Qiao family, she hated Qiao Qing and often secretly made things difficult for her. Although the old master didn’t know, Qiao Xuan had heard about it a few times. She didn’t know if Qiao Xuan would still remember what happened so long ago.

Qiao Xuan pushed Qiao Yue to desk in the study and sat across from her.

Qiao Yue looked into Qiao Xuan’s kind eyes and suddenly didn’t know where to start. She wanted to know what documents her mother had, what kind of life she had in the Qiao family, and most of all, what the man she had run off with was like.
