Qiao Manman's words startled Qiao Qinian.

He knew it all too well.

If either Manman or Shushu starts arguing, it won't be long before they start fighting.

Qiao Qinian knew he probably couldn't continue asking about this matter.

Just as he was thinking about how to get away from them, Jiang Shu's angry voice suddenly rang out.

"Qiao Manman, who's really shameless here? How dare you bring up these despicable things you've done to me?!"

Qiao Manman: "Me, a despicable person? I didn't do anything and you're already insulting me like this? What about you, who did you do? Are you shameless in broad daylight??"

Jiang Shu stood up angrily and pointed at Qiao Qiqi, who was staring at her from the side.

"I only said a few things to you in front of Qiao Qiqi, do you really have to call me shameless?"

Qiao Manman couldn't sit still any longer and stood up, saying, "You just admitted that you instructed my classmates to frame me, and now you're denying it in the blink of an eye?"

Jiang Shu's eyes widened: "When did I ever instruct your classmates to frame you? I don't even know your classmates, why would I do that?"

"Are you still pretending??"

Qiao Manman was utterly disgusted by Jiang Shu's pretentious act: "He's shameless indeed! He admitted it himself, but then he denied it behind my back!"

"I only admit to talking about you in front of Qiao Qiqi. What else am I supposed to admit to?"

"Didn't you try to persuade those two female classmates who caused trouble at your restaurant to come forward in your son's class and accuse me of instigating them to do it?"

Jiang Shu felt like she had heard something incredible.

"No, those two caused trouble in my restaurant, and I'm supposed to tell them to come and mess with you?"

Jiang Shu herself laughed when she said it: "Am I some kind of idiot? Why would I do that? Wouldn't it be better to just expose you online?!"

Qiao Manman: "Maybe that's exactly what you're thinking, trying to use this opportunity to have other classmates take pictures and expose me!"

Jiang Shu: "Qiao Manman, go look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are before you talk to me like this!"

"I'd rather use this time to make more money than waste it on you!"

Jiang Shu bent down, grabbed her bag from the sofa, and glared angrily at Qiao Manman.

"Qiao Manman, you just wait and see. Not only did you not apologize for what happened before, but today you're turning around and picking a fight with me. You'll regret this later!"

After saying that, Jiang Shu stormed upstairs in a huff.

Seeing this, Qiao Qinian sighed and patted Qiao Qiqi on the shoulder: "Comfort your sister."

After saying that, he caught up with Jiang Shu and they hurried upstairs together.

Qiao Qiqi listened to Qiao Qinian's words and wanted to comfort Qiao Manman.

She stood up and reached for Qiao Manman's hand, but Qiao Manman brushed it away unhappily.

Qiao Qiqi's leg wasn't fully healed yet, and she lost her balance and fell onto the sofa.

She looked at Qiao Manman in astonishment: "Sister... I didn't do anything wrong..."

Qiao Manman sneered, "Don't think I don't know what you've done!"

Qiao Qiqi was taken aback, a hint of panic appearing in her eyes.

However, before being discovered, he hurriedly tried to cover it up: "Sister, sister, what... what did I do?"

Qiao Manman stared at her with a cold and stern expression.

Only Qiao Qiqi herself knows best what she did and said.

the reason is simple.

If Jiang Shu had said something to Qiao Qinian, then Qiao Qinian would have called her long ago when both of them were free.

There is another reason.

She had never seen Qiao Qinian with such an unpleasant expression when she entered the room.

She will ask Qiao Qinian about this matter.

If Qiao Qiqi embellishes or says something she shouldn't, she will definitely demand an explanation from Qiao Qiqi.

upstairs.

Qiao Qinian followed Jiang Shu into the room, and Jiang Shu turned around and threw the bag she was holding at Qiao Qinian.

Qiao Qinian hurriedly took the bag and greeted him with a smile: "Have you vented your anger enough?"

Jiang Shu was completely powerless against Qiao Qinian, a gentle and guiding man.

But she still pouted and punched Qiao Qinian's chest twice.

"And you, why didn't you say a word when you were downstairs? What's wrong with saying something for me?"

Qiao Qinian took Jiang Shu's hand and pulled her to sit down on the sofa.

"Shushu, I can't speak up for any of you until I've fully figured out this matter."

Qiao Qinian said earnestly, "I know you're upset about this, but let's think about it: what if Manman hadn't done it either, and was wrongly accused? Would she feel better?"

Jiang Shu withdrew her hand, crossed her arms, and asked in an annoyed tone.

"It's already very clear what happened, so why defend her?"

Qiao Qinian: "Shushu, try to put yourself in my shoes. Give me some time, and I'll investigate this for you, okay?"

Jiang Shu curled her lip: "How long?"

Qiao Qinian pondered for a few seconds, then held up two fingers.

"Two days, how about that?"

Jiang Shu then agreed, "Alright, deal. If we still haven't found anything after two days, then you can go and tell your daughter to stay away from me!"

Qiao Qinian smiled and said, "Okay."

downstairs.

After Qiao Manman finished washing up and lay down, there was a sudden knock on the door.

She looked towards the door and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's Dad." Qiao Qinian's voice rang out from outside the door.

Qiao Manman thought for a few seconds, then grabbed a coat and put it on, saying, "Dad, come in."

Qiao Qinian pushed open the door and entered, seeing Qiao Manman sitting on the edge of the bed. He asked gently, "Did Dad disturb your rest?"

Qiao Manman shook her head: "No, but Dad, is there something you need that's coming over so late?"

Qiao Qinian walked to the bedside, pulled over a stool from under the dressing table, and sat down.

"Your father came here to ask you a few questions."

Qiao Manman knew that Qiao Qinian's question must be related to the restaurant!

But things always need to be resolved, so Qiao Manman calmly replied, "Okay, go ahead and ask."

Qiao Qinian: "Did you go to dinner alone that day?"

"no."

Qiao Manman picked up her phone from the bedside table, found the surveillance footage she had pulled up, and showed it to Qiao Qinian.

"Dad, look, I was having dinner with my friends at the time."

Qiao Qinian took the phone and zoomed in to take a look.

Upon seeing Shen Que, he frowned slightly: "This is Shen Tianyang's son, Shen Que?"

Qiao Manman was taken aback: "You know Dad?"

Qiao Qinian nodded and handed the phone back to Qiao Manman: "We're not only acquaintances, but also business partners."

Qiao Manman smiled and said, "That's very convenient. Dad, you can ask Shen Que what exactly happened that day. He knows very well."

Hearing Qiao Manman's affirmative words, Qiao Qinian's doubts about her lessened somewhat.
