Chapter 145

In the courtyard of the Qiao family,

Qiao\'s father explained everything in detail.

At that time, Li Lilian was pregnant with twins. The older one was a boy, and the younger one was Qiao Lingling.

Due to inadequate nutrition during Li Lilian\'s pregnancy and limited conditions at the hospital, she had a difficult delivery. The older boy couldn\'t survive, leaving only Qiao Lingling.

Li Lilian fell into a coma after giving birth and didn\'t know the condition of her child. Qiao Shengquan, with a heavy heart, went home to get supplies for his wife. Unexpectedly, when he returned, he found Qiao Ying abandoned on the floor behind the hospital.

Looking at the baby who was only two days old,

Qiao Shengquan held the child and inquired throughout the hospital, finally confirming that the child had been intentionally abandoned by someone.

The hospital suggested that he take the child to the police station or welfare institution.

Looking at the child with a pale face in his arms, Qiao Shengquan thought that even if he found the child\'s biological parents, the child would not be treated well. He couldn\'t bear to send the child to a welfare institution, thinking that maybe this was fate, a gift from heaven.

He asked the doctor for help; he wanted to adopt the child.

At that time, it was common for families to prefer boys over girls, so it was not unusual for a family to adopt a child.

The doctor, seeing that he was honest and had just lost a child, knew that when the child\'s mother woke up, she would not be able to accept the death of her son, so he helped cover it up.

When Li Lilian woke up, she saw two daughters.

Su Zhan listened and expressed his profound gratitude to Qiao Shengquan. If they had encountered someone with ill intentions, they didn\'t know what might have happened to the child.

Seeing that Qiao\'s father was a sincere person who had been treating the child as his own, they did not mistreat the child.

Li Lilian, after listening, felt resentful in her heart.

Their lives were already difficult, and now she had unknowingly raised someone else\'s daughter for more than ten years. She had never looked at the daughter with favor and had caused her a lot of trouble.

If it weren\'t for Su Zhan being present and the opportunity to gain something, Li Lilian would have caused a scene with her husband.

After a moment, Qiao Shengquan spoke again. He solemnly said, "... this child has suffered with us. You should take her back and treat her well, and help her find her biological mother."

Knowing that Qiao Ying now had her own ideas, Qiao\'s father added, "If she is willing to go with you."

"Thank you, thank you very much. We, the Su family, will never forget your great kindness. Rest assured, we will take good care of her. Although her biological father is no longer here, I swear to treat her as my own child and make it up to her." Su Zhan held Qiao\'s father\'s hand, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.

"Mr. Su, my family is made up of honest people. We don\'t have many ulterior motives. I\'ve been working on construction sites for years, and it\'s only this year that my child got into Capital University. Thanks to my child, I found a less strenuous job, but I\'ve worked myself to the point of illness at the factory. As you\'ve seen, our family\'s circumstances are not good. If it weren\'t for raising our child, we wouldn\'t have endured such hardship our entire lives, becoming the laughingstock of our relatives. Although our family has been through tough times, we have never mistreated our child. We\'ve worked hard to put them through college, hoping that our child will have a bright future. As parents, we want to live a good life. Even though this child is not my biological child, after more than a decade of emotional connection, taking her away from me feels like ripping my heart apart..." Li Lilian said, tears streaming down her face.

"I understand," Su Zhan fully understood.

"Don\'t worry, whether this child wants to come with me to the Su family or not, the gratitude from her and from our Su family will always remain," Su Zhan said, taking out his wallet and pulling out a card.

"I arrived in a hurry and didn\'t bring a lot of money with me, but there\'s five billion in this card. Consider it a gesture of goodwill, you can have it for now."

Even though they hadn\'t done a paternity test yet, Su Zhan was certain that the child was his elder brother\'s.

Five billion?

Li Lilian and Qiao Lingling were dumbfounded upon hearing this number.

He casually handed out five billion, and from Su Zhan\'s tone, it seemed like this was just a fraction of his gratitude. Qiao Lingling finally confirmed that the person in front of her was from the Su family in the capital city, the same family as Su Qingyu.

After the shock subsided, Qiao Lingling became insanely jealous. The fat boy she had bullied since childhood turned out to be the lost daughter of the Su family in the capital city. Why did this fat boy have such good luck?

Why couldn\'t any of these good things happen to her?

Li Lilian had initially planned to ask Su Zhan to help Qiao Lingling get into a better school later on, but she didn\'t expect Su Zhan to immediately produce five billion for her.

With this five billion, who would worry about not being able to attend a good school?

Why waste time studying?

"Fi-fi-five billion...?" Li Lilian was so shocked that she couldn\'t even speak properly, her outstretched hand trembling.

Upon hearing this number, Qiao\'s father was also taken aback, and he wanted to stop his wife from accepting it.

At that moment, the front door was pushed open.

Qiao\'s father stood up from the doorstep when he saw the person entering.

"Xiao Ying?"

Upon hearing Qiao\'s father\'s voice, Su Zhan instinctively turned around.

It was just two centimeters away. Li Lilian watched helplessly as the card turned, her hand desperately reaching out but failing to grasp it.

"Uh, uh..." she involuntarily muttered.

Li Lilian looked up, her heart sinking.

How did this brat suddenly come back?

She couldn\'t help but feel anxious about that card.

Qiao Ying saw the Bentley with the license plate from the capital city at the door. The neighbors started gossiping when they saw her, wondering who had come to the Qiao family. Upon entering, she saw Su Zhan in the living room, the same person she had met a couple of days ago.

Su Zhan: "Child..."

Seeing Su Zhan visibly excited and the deep, complex emotions in his eyes, and glancing at Qiao\'s father\'s expression, Qiao Ying was puzzled.

She walked in with big strides.

Qiao Ying\'s tone was unfriendly: "Chairman Su, you\'ve come to apologize, but are you apologizing to me or to the Qiao family?"

"I... I came to find you."

Su Zhan didn\'t expect Qiao Ying to come back, and he didn\'t know what to do for a moment. He was afraid that Qiao Ying wouldn\'t be able to accept it and that he would hurt her.

Qiao Ying walked over and said, "I\'m busy."

She had already given him a chance in the restaurant a few days ago.

Qiao\'s father looked at his daughter, feeling ashamed of the question, but wanting to talk to her. So he cautiously asked, "Qiao Ying, why did you come back during school hours? Is something wrong?"

But Qiao Ying looked at Su Zhan and said, "I have some matters to attend to now. Do I need to ask you to leave?"

Her momentum even overwhelmed Su Zhan, a tycoon in the business world.

Su Zhan was at a loss for how to respond, but unexpectedly Qiao\'s father spoke up for him, saying, "Qiao Ying, he came to find you."

As the saying goes, don\'t air your dirty laundry in public, but since Qiao Ying didn\'t consider this a family matter, she didn\'t bother to hide it.

She took out something from her pocket and slapped it on the table, saying, "This is the divorce agreement. Both of you sign it."

Qiao Ying\'s gaze swept over the crumpled papers on the table.

She continued, addressing both of them, "Qiao Yi will split the old house between you two. And as for the 500,000 yuan compensation, you can dream about it."

"Divorce?" Su Zhan looked at Qiao\'s married couple.

"What divorce? Who said anything about divorcing? Those were just angry words from your father. How could you take them seriously?" Li Lilian laughed and secretly glanced at Su Zhan.

In her heart, she cursed, "Why did this brat have to come back at this time?"

Qiao Ying said, "Whether you divorce or not is not up to you. But if you don\'t sign this document, I\'ll send both of you to jail tonight."

"Don\'t talk about cheating on the house and money. Just based on the fact that you two stole my test and cheated to secure a spot at Capital University, I can make you and your daughter rot in there until you die."
