So, Qiao Lingxiang brushed past Qiao Yuelan’s shoulder. She headed towards the staircase.
Qiao Yuelan was still lecturing Qiao Lingxiang when she noticed that Qiao Lingxiang was suddenly walking away. Astonishment appeared on her beautiful face. She hurriedly turned around and caught up with Qiao Lingxiang.
“Qiao Lingxiang, did you hear what I said? Qiao Lingxiang, I’m asking you to stop fighting with other people. You…”
“Sister.”
Qiao Lingxiang, who was walking ahead, suddenly stopped. She didn’t turn around. Instead, she paused for a moment before asking slowly, “Are you asking me to stop fighting because you’re afraid of trouble, or are you really concerned about me?”
“Is there a difference?”
Qiao Yuelan furrowed her pretty brows as she stood behind Qiao Lingxiang. She looked at Qiao Lingxiang’s fat back and opened her mouth.
“I hope you’ll stop fighting. This isn’t becoming of a good student. Don’t you know that you’ve already embarrassed our family enough? I don’t want to be laughed at because of you again. I keep owing Cen Yi more favors because of you too.”
“If you think that I have a choice in this, it just means that you’ve never understood my situation.”
Qiao Lingxiang took a deep breath. She still didn’t turn around. She knew that Qiao Yuelan would never understand what she said. She also wanted to have a happy and peaceful life, even if it wasn’t extraordinary or glamorous.
When did her situation turn out like this? When did everything start? Was it because she wasn’t kind to others? Had she committed any heinous crimes?
She hadn’t. Other people laughed at her because of her figure. Then her life slowly started to turn out like this, bit by bit.
Aside from Cen Yi and his friends, no one helped Qiao Lingxiang. If Qiao Lingxiang didn’t resist or counter violence with violence, an abyss would be waiting for her.
Since Cen Yi and his friends were bad students, Qiao Lingxiang decided that she would be a bad student from today onwards too!
After she finished speaking, Qiao Lingxiang continued to walk forward.
As expected, Qiao Yuelan didn’t understand what Qiao Lingxiang said. She followed Qiao Lingxiang and questioned her coldly, “So what? You said I’ve never understood your situation but what about you? Have you ever understood our parents and my situation? We suffered so much embarrassment because of you. Why didn’t you think of improving yourself for our sake?”
Qiao Lingxiang stopped at the top of the stairs and suddenly smiled mockingly. She shook her head and said in a helpless tone to Qiao Yuelan who was behind her, “That’s why we’re not a family, right? Since we can’t understand each other’s situations, let’s not be a family anymore. From now on, the Qiao family only has you, the golden daughter of the family. I don’t exist anymore.”
She had already told Hou Manrong to treat her like she was dead. She might’ve said that in a fit of anger and felt sullen at that time.
But now, when she said the same thing to Qiao Yuelan, she was sincerely informing her what she wanted Qiao Yuelan to do.
There was no sullenness, no hatred, no anger. She had no hope that her parents and older sister would do anything to try to get her to change her mind.
She would let it be. She didn’t want to work so hard and try to be a good child anymore. Just let it be.
The two of them went down the stairs. Qiao Yuelan wanted to continue reprimanding Qiao Lingxiang for her fighting but her words suddenly got stuck in her throat. She saw a bunch of student athletes standing at the entrance of the staircase on the first floor.
