Best friends transmigrated into the roles of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? This script is wrong
Chapter 87 You're Not That Kind of Child
Qiao Qinian smiled and didn't respond to Qiao Manman's question.
"So, the second thing is, are you familiar with the two female students who reported the restaurant?"
Qiao Manman answered truthfully, "Dad, to be honest, I'm not familiar with them."
"Oh?" Qiao Qinian asked curiously, "Aren't you classmates?"
Qiao Manman said helplessly, "Dad, who says that classmates will definitely know each other and will definitely have a good relationship?"
"I only know Zhu Liangqi in my class, but Zhu Liangqi's story has gone viral online, and my dad must have seen it, right?"
Qiao Qinian said earnestly, "I've heard a little about it."
Qiao Manman: "I've been having a headache lately because of Zhu Liangqi's matter, so I really don't have the mind to care about Jiang Shu's matter."
"Besides, Dad, I really have no interest in dealing with Jiang Shu; it wouldn't do me any good."
Qiao Qinian nodded and said, "Yes, Dad knows. Dad just told your stepmother that you're not that kind of child."
After this incident escalated to this point, Qiao Manman finally heard someone speak a sensible word.
Qiao Qinian continued, "Then, the third question."
To be honest, Qiao Manman didn't know what else Qiao Qinian had to ask.
There's a third question?
She said, "Go ahead and ask."
Qiao Qinian asked with a smile, "What's your relationship with Shen Que?"
Qiao Manman was stunned, never expecting Qiao Qinian to ask such a question.
She thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth.
"Shen Que is my suitor..."
Qiao Qinian was surprised, but his eyes were quickly filled with joy.
"Oh, really?" His smile deepened. "I know this kid. He's very honest and ambitious."
"When Lao Shen was unwell a while ago, he stayed by Lao Shen's side and helped him with company affairs."
Qiao Manman suddenly remembered that there was a short period of time when Shen Que had not appeared at school.
She said thoughtfully, "And then?"
Qiao Qinian: "If you can give Shen Que a chance, he might become a reliable boyfriend for you."
"Daddy, Daddy! Stop! Stop!!"
Qiao Manman quickly stopped Qiao Qinian from continuing.
She felt that Qiao Qinian's ideas were very dangerous.
Qiao Manman asked, "Dad, is it that I have to be in a relationship at this age, or do you simply think that Shen Que is a rare and wonderful man?"
Qiao Qinian stroked his chin: "Dad thinks that even if you never want to get married, Dad can still support you. But the second half of what you said is true."
"Shen is indeed a very good kid. He is loyal, filial, intelligent, and has a good personality."
Hearing Qiao Qinian say this, Qiao Manman also felt that after getting to know Shen Que over this period of time, she couldn't find any problems with him in any aspect.
But the key point is...
She's not attracted to him...
She could live together as a couple, but she really couldn't develop feelings for him.
To put it bluntly, she's starting to see Shen Que as a brother.
In addition, she felt that dating Shen Que was a huge loss for her.
If one day they break up because of a relationship, they won't even be able to be friends anymore!
Qiao Manman shook her head vigorously: "Dad, let's talk about it later. I just want to finish reading my books right now."
Qiao Qinian did not try to persuade him further.
After all, her daughter is also very outstanding, and there's no need for her to rush into a relationship with a man.
The conversation ended with small talk.
After leaving the room, Qiao Qinian made a phone call to Jiang Tingyan.
After he answered the call, Qiao Qinian went downstairs: "Tingyan, are you resting?"
Jiang Tingyan was handling her work when she put her phone on speakerphone on her desk.
"No, Uncle Qiao, is there something you need?"
Qiao Qinian cut to the chase: "Regarding the restaurant, how likely do you think it is?"
Jiang Tingyan paused, then his expression darkened slightly.
He stopped what he was doing, picked up his phone, and asked, "Is Uncle Qiao suspecting his own daughter?"
Qiao Qinian: "No, it's about asking questions rationally and objectively from the sidelines; you could say we're investigating this matter."
Jiang Tingyan said coldly, "It's not Qiao Manman, so there's no need to suspect her."
"Oh?" Qiao Qinian was somewhat surprised. "So sure?"
Jiang Tingyan: "She wasn't familiar with those two girls, so why would she do this? You could even say they didn't get along."
Jiang Tingyan has his own sources of information, so he knows very well the details of Qiao Manman's situation in the class.
Of course, this also makes it certain that Qiao Manman would not do such a thing.
Qiao Qinian walked to the sofa and sat down, puzzled. "So, Tingyan, who do you think did this?"
Jiang Tingyan fell silent, his mind blank.
He said in a deep voice, "We need to start the investigation by looking at those two girls. Speculation alone is useless."
"It's time to investigate," Qiao Qinian said with a smile, but there was a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Otherwise, the roof of our house will be ripped off again."
Jiang Tingyan frowned slightly: "My mother and Qiao Manman are arguing again."
Qiao Qinian: "It's just a regular meal. By the way, why haven't you been staying at home lately?"
"I'm quite busy."
Jiang Tingyan answered Qiao Qinian's question with concise words.
Qiao Qinian didn't press further, but instead said, "Next Friday is New Year's Day, remember to come home for dinner."
Jiang Tingyan said calmly, "Okay, I understand."
After they hung up the phone, the smile on Qiao Qinian's face gradually faded.
His expression darkened slightly as he dialed another number. Once the other party answered, he instructed, "Help me thoroughly investigate the two girls who caused trouble at Jiang Shu Restaurant."

The next morning, Qiao Manman was woken up by a series of text messages on her phone.
She groggily reached for her phone to check the messages, and when she saw the PowerPoint presentation that Zhu Liangqi had finished overnight, her sleepiness vanished almost instantly.
Did Liang Qi not sleep all night?
However, Qiao Manman soon stopped speculating about Zhu Liangqi's situation.
Whether she's asleep or not, what does it have to do with me?
What she said yesterday was enough to make her completely disappointed in Zhu Liangqi.
Qiao Manman yawned, and suddenly received another message from Jiang Tingyan on her phone.
Jiang Tingyan: [Inspection today.]
After saying that, he tagged Qiao Manman: 【How much have you completed?】
Qiao Manman thought of the untouched computer in her car and decided to play dead and remain silent.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Liangqi suddenly said something in the group chat.
Given Manman's personality, he probably hasn't even taken the first step yet.
Upon seeing Zhu Liangqi's words, Qiao Manman's expression turned noticeably unpleasant.
What does she mean by that?
Even after Zhu Liangqi said that, Qiao Manman still didn't respond.
Then Zhu Liangqi suddenly tagged her again: 【Manman, you agree, right?】
Qiao Manman was completely baffled. She was the one who said they were breaking off relations, but now she was the one trying to speak up again.
