Chapter 60: Are They Even Human?
CHAPTER 60: CHAPTER 60: ARE THEY EVEN HUMAN?
Qiao Yaozu naturally didn’t want his precious daughter to go hungry, so he immediately had his secretary bring in some food, and the father and daughter ate while chatting.
"Qiqi, what exactly do you want from dad?" Qiao Yaozu knew his daughter wouldn’t come all the way during lunchtime for no reason.
"Dad, now that our family has been kicked out, I think we should just sell that little estate." Qiao Qiqi directly stated her purpose.
"How could that work? Where would your grandmother and uncle live if we sold it?" Qiao Yaozu’s first reaction was to refuse.
"Dad, you’ve supported Uncle’s family long enough. Have you forgotten what aunt said yesterday? They actually want half of the company!"
Her words made Qiao Yaozu fall into deep thought. He hadn’t expected his sister-in-law to think this way, and it’s imaginable that his brother might think the same.
This company was built by him alone. Back then, when his brother was in college, he worked laboriously to support his education.
He has also been supporting his brother’s family over the years.
"I think Uncle’s family doesn’t just want half of the company; they probably want all of it! Dad, in fact, you are at fault too, as you’ve slowly indulged their appetite."
Qiao Qiqi thought Uncle’s family was indeed hateful, but her father’s limitless indulgence, making people feel he had no bottom line, was also a significant issue.
"If that’s the case, just let them live in the house. From now on, we can live our own lives separately."
"This morning, when I went to school, the driver deliberately broke the car. I split ways with two sisters and walked to school, and I encountered a gang of thugs, at least a dozen. If someone hadn’t passed by and saved me, I probably would have been killed by them."
Qiao Qiqi looked at her father with tear-filled eyes.
"What... Did you get hurt? Let dad take a look." Qiao Yaozu nervously checked on his daughter.
"The person came in time, I’m not hurt, but Dad, those people were sent by my cousin, just because I suggested you cut his allowance, he tried to kill me."
"Jixuan? Impossible!" Qiao Yaozu instinctively didn’t believe his nephew would be so ruthless.
"Dad, those people confessed, they’re still at the police station. If you really don’t believe it, you can go ask the police."
"..." Qiao Yaozu felt like a heavy stone was blocking his chest.
His brother’s two children could be said to have been raised by him; he paid for their living and tuition expenses, and all of his nephew’s study abroad expenses were covered by him as well.
Just because he stopped his allowance, he tried to kill his daughter!
Is he even human?
"Dad, we really can’t let this continue. I’m afraid if you can’t satisfy their growing desires, our whole family will be in danger."
Qiao Qiqi looked seriously at her father. The tragic events of her past life were still vivid; she would never tolerate her family getting into trouble again.
"Qiqi, I know you’ve grown up and have your own opinions now, just do what you think is right. I will fully support you! It’s just... them..."
"Dad, don’t worry, I would never truly abandon them to starve. After all, we’re family!"
Of course, she couldn’t just leave them alone, because many good shows were yet to come. How could you stage them without the main characters?
"I’ll give you the property deed." Qiao Yaozu planned to let his daughter handle the whole matter; his son was focused on entering the entertainment industry, so it would be tough on his daughter to inherit the family business.
