307 Resemblance

When Qiao Yue and Qiao Yu arrived home, Qiao Xin was walking out of the ancestral hall.

After running and cleaning the floor, she was completely exhausted and stood panting at the door.

But Qiao Yue and Qiao Yu were standing at the door with bags of desserts and food from a nearby restaurant, as if they were mocking her.

“You guys can still go out and eat? Qiao Yue, you really have no sense of shame.”

Qiao Yue was baffled by the scolding and sneered, “You deserve your punishment of cleaning the ancestral hall. What does that have anything to do with me?”

Qiao Yu shielded Qiao Yue to prevent Qiao Xin from hurting her.

“Fourth brother, why are you also protecting this guy?” Qiao Xin was so angry that she threw the rag at Qiao Yu.

“Qiao Xin, what are you doing?” Qiao Yu threw the rag on the floor in disgust and flicked the dirty water off his body.

“Why do all of you take his side? Second brother did that, and so are you. I clearly didn’t do anything wrong!”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. Why did you bully your classmate? I saw the video.”

The school disciplinary committee had already posted the video of Qiao Xin’s bullying on the school website. Qiao Yu had personally reviewed and approved the post.

“But these were all forged by Qiao Yue to sow discord! Didn’t you realize that since Qiao Yue came here, nothing good has happened to our family?” Qiao Xin questioned.

“That’s because there are too many things in our family that need to be changed.” Qiao Yu turned and left.

Qiao Xin screamed and shouted behind them.

When the two of them entered the house, Yin He was standing in the living room, ready to leave.

Yin He lowered his head slightly when he saw Qiao Yu and Qiao Yue. “Hello, second young master, fifth young master.”

Qiao Yue sized up the man standing in front of her. He was extremely good-looking, and there was a little effeminate charm between his eyes, but his eyes resembled hers. Who was this person?

“This is the sixth young master of the Yin family.” Qiao Jing introduced.

The Yin family was an aristocratic family of similar status with the Qiao’s. But since the previous family head, Yin Xun, ran away for a woman, the family was in shambles. Fortunately, Yin He was a very capable person, and he saved the Yin family from its mess.

“Hello, Yin He.” Qiao Yue reached out and shook hands with the man.

Yin He’s smile was gentle. “I think young master Qiao Yue and I look alike. It must be fate.”

“You might even be related. Qiao Yue only came back this year. His mother is my grandfather’s adopted daughter.”

“Other than an uncle who had passed away a long time ago, our family has no relatives. It is probably just fate.” Yin He said with a smile. “But I think young master Qiao Yue and I will get along fine. I’ll count on young master Qiao Yue for our upcoming project.”

“Project?” Qiao Yue asked.

“Go to K-Country with me when the school holidays begin.” Qiao Jing said.

At that moment, Qiao Xin walked into the house and was shocked to hear Qiao Jing mention the project in K-Country.

She had heard her father mention this project before. It was supposed to be her father’s, but why did Qiao Jing give it to Qiao Yue without saying a word?

Qiao Xin clenched her fists as she watched the four people chatting happily in the living room before she went upstairs.

“And this is?” Yin He looked at Qiao Xin’s back and asked.

“She’s my sixth sister. She’s being punished for doing something bad recently. She’s in a bad mood and that’s why she’s like this.”

Yin He’s eyes glistened with a hint of playfulness.

The few of them chatted for a while more before Yin He took his leave.

Qiao Yu went back to his room while Qiao Yue followed Qiao Jing to the latter’s study. She wanted to ask Qiao Jing what the project was about, why he had to go abroad and take her with him.

Qiao Jing motioned for Qiao Yue to sit when they entered his study.

“I know what you want to ask me. I’ve already prepared the information for you.”

Qiao Jing handed a file to Qiao Yue.

This was a healthcare project with a few million yuan in funds, which was plentiful.

“This project is a collaboration with the Yin family. We’ll go to K-Country together for a site visit. There might be some charity activities involved. We’ll stay there for a while together.”
