Best friends transmigrated into the roles of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? This script is wrong

Qiao Manman looked at Qiao Qiqi in astonishment.

Why did she suddenly give her a gold bracelet?

Qiao Manman took it with surprise and looked at the label indicating a weight of thirty grams.

At the current gold price, just the weight alone would be nearly 30,000 yuan!

"Why...did you decide to give me a bracelet?"

Qiao Manman's tone softened considerably immediately.

Qiao Qiqi took the table out of the box, put it on her wrist, and then asked Qiao Manman to put it on as well.

She placed their hands together and said with a smile, "One for the older sister, one for me, that's how we look like real sisters."

A complex expression appeared in Qiao Manman's eyes.

She once heard a saying: "If someone is willing to spend money on you, you definitely hold a place in their heart."

Whether it's family, friendship, or love.

Qiao Manman withdrew her hand blankly, and then listened to Qiao Qiqi's explanation.

"The bracelet is an apology, for me entering my sister's bedroom without permission and thinking I did nothing wrong."

"Sister, can you forgive me? Please give me a chance to repent and start anew, considering how little I know about manners."

Qiao Qiqi's pleading, and the heavy reminder of the large gold bracelet on her wrist.

Even if Qiao Manman's heart wasn't soft, it was softened by the gold.

"Sigh, sisters shouldn't talk like that anymore."

Qiao Manman raised her hand and patted Qiao Qiqi's hand with a slightly stiff gesture.

"Just don't come into my room again next time."

Qiao Qiqi smiled and said, "Okay."

Watching Qiao Manman flaunt her gold bracelet with her classmates, Qiao Qiqi's eyes would occasionally flash with disdain.

She bribed Qiao Manman with a little money. What kind of rich girl is she?

If the Qiao family's reputation weren't so openly displayed, and given Qiao Manman's money-grubbing attitude, people would only think that the Qiao family was just a shell company.

You've really disgraced your father!

Staring at Qiao Manman's blissful and carefree expression, Qiao Qiqi suddenly thought of something.

She smiled and said, "Sister, actually, we have to thank Brother Yan for this idea."

Qiao Manman's smile froze for a moment.

Jiangting Banquet?

Why did he suddenly give Qiao Qiqi advice?

Qiao Qiqi saw Qiao Manman's expression: "Last night when I went downstairs to heat up milk, I ran into Brother Tingyan who had just come back from outside."

"The two of us chatted in the living room for quite a while in the middle of the night."

Qiao Manman didn't care what the two of them talked about.

What she was curious about was why Jiang Tingyan would give Qiao Qiqi this idea.

Why did Qiao Qiqi suddenly tell her about this?

Qiao Manman absentmindedly hummed in agreement, then said, "It's fine."

The answer was simple, but his expression was serious.

Qiao Qiqi couldn't help but have some answers in her heart.

These two people probably do indeed have an unspeakable secret, just as Mao Zhuyu said.

After sitting for ten minutes, Qiao Manman asked Zhu Liangqi to help take Qiao Qiqi back.

On her way back to school in a taxi, Qiao Manman sent a message to Qiao Qinian.

He recounted Qiao Qiqi's situation that day and the outcome of the matter to Qiao Qinian.

Just a few seconds after he sent it, Qiao Qinian replied with a thumbs up.

"Full..."

Zhu Liangqi suddenly spoke up: "When your sister mentioned chatting with Teacher Jiang late at night, your expression was clearly off."

"Have you fallen for Teacher Jiang?"

Qiao Manman was quite surprised by Zhu Liangqi's insight.

Unfortunately, she guessed wrong.

"Liang Qi, my surprised expression isn't because I'm concerned about their conversation. I'm concerned about why Qiao Qiqi suddenly brought this up with me. It's so abrupt."

After Qiao Manman said that, Zhu Liangqi realized what was going on.

"Indeed, you just said that out of the blue, and your sister was staring at you the whole time."

"Really??" Qiao Manman exclaimed in surprise, "And after asking that question, you kept staring at me??"

Zhu Liangqi nodded firmly: "I saw everything. There's no point in me lying to you."

Qiao Manman's brows furrowed slightly: "She might be testing whether I have feelings for Jiang Tingyan."

"I think so too, otherwise she wouldn't have explained it in such detail."

After a moment's thought, the two looked into each other's eyes and saw the answer there.

"There's really no need to treat me as a potential enemy."

Qiao Manman had a headache: "Even if she likes Jiang Tingyan, Jiang Tingyan will probably find it hard to even glance at her."

Zhu Liangqi disagreed: "Manman, you all live under the same roof, and many things are beyond your control."

Qiao Manman: "Even if Jiang Tingyan falls for Qiqi, and the two of them can get along well, that's their business."

As she spoke, Qiao Manman pursed her lips and turned to look out the car window.

A feeling of tightness and pressure lingered in her chest, making her want to catch her breath.

Zhu Liangqi moved closer to Qiao Manman and teased her with a smile.

"Manman, don't you like Teacher Jiang?"

Qiao Manman turned her head and glanced at her irritably: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhu Liangqi smiled without saying a word.

-

night.

As soon as Qiao Qinian and Jiang Shu arrived home, they saw Qiao Qiqi sitting on the sofa with her feet on a small stool, watching TV.

The two men went up to ask about her foot, and Qiao Qiqi reassured them, "It's nothing, just a minor injury. The doctor said it will heal with rest."

As she spoke, Qiao Qiqi reached out and gently rubbed the skin near the wound.

A golden table slipped onto her wrist. Qiao Qinian saw it and then understood why Qiao Qiqi had suddenly gone out today.

"Qiqi, if you want to buy gold in the future, you can have it delivered to your home. You won't have to go there yourself."

Qiao Qiqi glanced at her hand and then withdrew it: "Dad, if I want to buy it myself, I can have them deliver it."

"The main reason is that I want to buy it as a gift for my sister. She's as fair-skinned and thin as me, so I need to go and try it on myself before I can choose."

Upon hearing Qiao Qiqi say she wanted to give Qiao Manman a gold bracelet, Qiao Qinian's face immediately lit up with a smile.

He reached out and patted Qiao Qiqi's head: "If you two get along well, Dad will be very happy."

Qiao Qiqi smiled and cooperated, observing Qiao Qinian.

After Qiao Qinian spoke up for Qiao Manman that night, Qiao Qiqi understood.

Compared to Qiao Manman, there was actually no affection between her and Qiao Qinian; at most, it was just a sense of responsibility.

Qiao Manman is different; she was raised by Qiao Qinian.

Over time, their relationship developed into one like that of a mother to her child.

The kind of person who would feel heartache even for the slightest bump or bruise.

Therefore, if she wants to take everything away from Qiao Manman, she needs to lay a solid foundation for her relationship with Qiao Qinian and his daughter.

It's 10:30 p.m.

Qiao Manman arrived at the villa entrance exhausted, and Jiang Tingyan also returned at the same time.

Qiao Manman glared resentfully at Jiang Tingyan as he got out of the car.

When he walked up to her, Qiao Manman finally spoke: "Teacher Jiang, could you please not push people so hard next time?"

"Even an old ox needs to stop and catch its breath while plowing the field, but you don't even give me a chance to catch my breath."

Jiang Tingyan, however, seemed not to hear Qiao Manman's complaints and retorted ruthlessly.

"If you use the time you would otherwise be dozing off to write your review, you won't be short of time."

Qiao Manman stopped and suddenly turned to look at him.

"You were spying on me in the library?!"

Jiang Tingyan glanced at her sideways, recalling what he had seen when he passed by the library these past two days.

Almost every day after lunch, Qiao Manman and Zhu Liangqi would go to the library to read.

When he passed by, he either saw Qiao Manman sleeping with a book in her hands or sleeping with her chin resting on her hand.

He didn't know how long he had slept.

She's asleep, she must be asleep.

He explained, "I just happened to be passing by. You were sitting by the window, so it would be hard for me not to see you."

Qiao Manman rolled her eyes at his retreating back: "When are you going to grade the homework?"

Jiang Tingyan: "If you finish it, I can work through the night to correct it."

Qiao Manman yawned repeatedly. She was exhausted after a long day and didn't want Jiang Tingyan to make her correct her homework that night.

Just as she was about to refuse, Qiao Manman's phone suddenly received a message.

She took out her phone and saw that it was a message from Zhu Liangqi.

Zhu Liangqi: [Manman, are you home yet?]

Qiao Manman took a picture of her front door: [Arrived, how about you?]

Zhu Liangqi's lips curled into a bitter smile as she looked at the locked door of her home.

These past few nights I've been coming home late every night because of homework, and I haven't been able to help my aunt with anything, which she's been keeping in mind.

Unexpectedly, her aunt locked her out while her uncle was away on a business trip.

She dared not knock on the door too many times, firstly because she was afraid her aunt would scold her, and secondly because if she startled her cousin, she was destined to be in trouble that night.

So, all I can do right now is chat with Qiao Manman for a few minutes to ease the grievances and bitterness in my heart.

Zhu Liangqi: [Are all the lights still on? Are they waiting for you to come back?]

Qiao Manman changed into slippers in the entryway and saw Qiao Qinian and the others sitting in the living room waiting. She then replied to Zhu Liangqi.

Yes, everyone's still waiting. Your aunt hasn't scolded you for coming home late these past few days, has she?

As soon as the message was sent, Qiao Qinian turned around and looked at Qiao Manman and Jiang Tingyan.

"You're back! Come and have something to eat. Sister Wang made a midnight snack."

Qiao Manman was starving, so she jogged over to the coffee table.

Seeing the food on the table, Qiao Manman almost drooled.

Grilled conch, abalone, steamed oysters, Australian lobster, king crab, etc.

Qiao Manman swallowed hard and sat down, intending to send the photos to Zhu Liangqi.

The moment the camera was turned on, Qiao Manman paused again.

Given how harshly Liang Qi's aunt treated her, she probably wouldn't make her a midnight snack.

She shouldn't tempt her anymore.

She looked at the message Zhu Liangqi had sent. Zhu Liangqi replied: "No, my aunt has been busy playing cards these past few days and hasn't had time to talk to me."

Qiao Manman breathed a sigh of relief: [That's good. Don't let yourself be bullied. Be sure to tell me in advance if anything happens.]

Zhu Liangqi rubbed her arms and hugged her slightly cold body.

Seeing that only 10% of the battery remained, Zhu Liangqi decided to end the conversation.

【Manman, I'm going to wash up now. I'll chat with you later.】

Qiao Manman sent a goodnight message, rolled up her sleeves, put on her gloves, and prepared to get to work.

"Sister, eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you, we've already eaten."

Qiao Manman's hand, which was reaching for the oyster, suddenly stopped.
