Qiao Lan doesn't feel right. It's strange to see Qiao's second aunt here all of a sudden when she's not at home with the kids.

"No, I've spoken to a friend", Qiao Lan said, taking two steps back, "I'll leave when my friend arrives."

"Qiao's second aunt chased after her on her high heels and was about to grab Qiao Lan's arm when she noticed a middle-aged man walking towards her.

A middle-aged man, but looking particularly spry and tall, Qiao's second aunt was startled.

I was about to yell at him for what he was doing when I saw Qiao Lan greeting the middle-aged man and getting into the car opposite.

Qiao's second aunt was so angry that she tried to chase after him, but the first thing she saw was the car.

It's good not to look, but it's a shock to see.

Qiao's second aunt married a rich man and slowly got to know the so-called rich people and saw a lot of eye-opening things, such as cars.

Qiao's second aunt drove this car around and could not help but make a fool of herself when she met her former friends.

In addition to showing off her own car, Qiao's second aunt also likes to show off her husband's car.

Her husband had a Land Rover, over a million and nearly two million! But once there were a few guests in the hotel, and later the hotel staff told her that these were the ones who were really rich, there were three cars parked under the hotel, two of which were priced at up to eight figures!

A two million dollar car is already a luxury car that Qiao's second aunt can't even think about, and eight figures is even more astronomical.

Qiao's second aunt went to take a look, and when she came back, she told her husband about it, and he laughed at her for not knowing, and then the two of them got together and had a look at some real luxury cars.

Knowing a little about cars, it was immediately apparent that the car Qiao Lan was in was one she had seen in over eight figures.

Qiao's second aunt ������.

Even her husband can't afford such a car, not to mention Luo Nian, who is sitting in the back.

Qiao's second aunt returned to the car and Luo Nian said where is your sister.

"She said she was going to a classmate's house," Qiao's second aunt said.

Luo Nian was not very happy, he had been here for several days and had only managed to meet someone, but he hadn't even been able to keep them, so Luo Nian inevitably complained about Qiao's second aunt.

Qiao's second aunt was furious and wanted to scold her, but didn't dare, as she was counting on Luo Nian to help her.

Qiao's second aunt couldn't help but feel sorry for Luo Nian, who hadn't seen the car just now.

Qiao Lan got out of Qiao's second aunt, got into the car and looked up to meet Tan Mo who was looking at her.

I don't know how many times I had seen Tan Mo, but I don't know if it was because I hadn't seen him for a few days, or if it was because I had changed in my mind after my misguided "love talk" that day, but now when I met Tan Mo's eyes, Qiao Lan was a little embarrassed to dodge.

The good thing is that Tan Mo doesn't notice such small expressions, or if he does, he probably doesn't know what they mean, so Qiao Lan is relieved again.

Uncle Chan has been having a hard time for the past two days, but he still managed to put on some spirit with Qiao Lan and asked her who the person was who had just pulled her.

"My second sister."

Qiao Lan and Uncle Chan chatted casually, she did not treat Uncle Chan and Tan Mo as outsiders and was not kind enough to hide Qiao's second aunt from him, she simply told him about Qiao's second aunt.

Uncle Chan sometimes cannot understand how Qiao Lan, who is such a good and outstanding child, can behave like this in her family.

But there's no mood for that now.

He went out with Tan Mo today, specifically to have dinner with Tan Father.

Tan Mo said he wanted to go abroad.

Tan Mo didn't hide it from Uncle Chan, and perhaps because it was too hard to keep it inside, he wanted to tell someone.

Uncle Chan finally found out why Tan Mo had agreed to go for a check-up, but when he thought of the results, his heart ached again.

"Young master, in fact LanLan probably doesn't even care, she's a good girl."

Not caring that you have AS or that you have legs, Uncle Chan has known Qiao Lan for so long that he doesn't think Qiao Lan will find it as weird as anyone else to stay away from Tan Mo after learning that Tan Mo likes her.

"She doesn't care that I care," Tan Mo said.

"She's a good girl, so there's even less need to be tied to me."

Uncle Chan is silent.

Tan Mo has never understood feelings or love, but now he finally does, but understanding doesn't mean he's happy.

I had to leave because I liked it too much.

Uncle Chan wanted to say something, but looking at Tan Mo's face, he didn't say anything.

Qiao Lan feels that Tan Mo and Uncle Chan are strange, but they don't say anything.

Qiao Lan didn't recognise her at first glance, but when the man said he had seen her last Friday, Qiao Lan remembered that this was the same person who had been sitting in the back of Qiao's second aunt's car that day.

He asked Qiao's second aunt to come again, but Qiao's second aunt refused to come, so Luo Nian was angry and cursed, so he came himself.

He drives his own million dollar car, wears a brand name, and stands in front of the school like a lamppost, causing everyone to look at him.

Qiao Lan immediately took two steps back and raised his eyes to ask him, "Something wrong?"

Luo Nian looked at Qiao Lan with a cold face and thought to himself that Qiao Lan probably didn't even recognise the designer labels she was wearing, so she was really a girl from a poor family and had no knowledge.

But poor is poor, but his face still looks good, and Luo Nian smiled and said, "Your second sister and I are friends, and I met your mother the other day."

"So?"

Luo Nian was stunned, "Didn't your mother and sister tell you?"

Qiao Lan and Luo Nian distanced themselves, "I haven't seen my mother for six months, you need to talk to her."

Turning his head after saying this, he walked away.

It was not until he had run a good distance away that he stood still, in silence, for some time.

She thought she would be able to live a clean life by staying away from the Qiao Family, but the Qiao Family's shamelessness really exceeded her expectations.

Qiao Lan is not stupid, and when she thinks about Qiao's second aunt, she can immediately guess why this Luo Nian has come to see her.

Is the Qiao Family so poor that they have to find ways to sell their daughters that they kicked out?

Qiao Lan was so angry that she felt uncomfortable in her heart, but when she suddenly received a text message from Luo Nian after the evening study, Qiao Lan was totally confused.

Where on earth did Luo Nian get her phone number?

Luo Nian is like a psychopath, sending her harassing text messages every day, Qiao Lan is so annoyed that she just turns off her phone.

When Luo Nian said he wanted to invite her to dinner, Qiao Lan said no. Luo Nian grabbed her wrist and headed for the car.

Tan Mo is preparing to leave at the end of this month, which is three days later.

He pulled open the drawer and saw a green bank card in the drawer.

"Tan Mo , this is all my savings for the past two years, will you save it for me."

He promised her then, very solemnly, that he would say yes.

The thought of preparing to leave without saying goodbye was wiped clean by a bank card.

He should always have spoken to her, although he was worried that he might not be able to leave again once he saw her.

Tan Mo looked at the card for a long time, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat to Qiao Lan, but no reply came after a long time.

Qiao Lan never fails to reply to his WeChat messages.

Tan Mo had a vague feeling that something was not right and redialed Qiao Lan's number, but the answer was that the phone was switched off and could not be reached.

Tan Mo suddenly clutched the card in his hand.

After a few seconds of silence, Uncle Chan was approached directly and sped off in the direction of the school.

Qiao Lan and Bai Yu are pestered by Luo Nian, who is too big to let Qiao Lan go, and Qiao Lan can't get away.

When Qiao Lan saw Luo Nian reaching for her wrist, Qiao Lan was furious and told him to get lost.

Luo Nian had never heard anyone tell him to get lost before in his life, so he couldn't face it and got angry, revealing his true nature in a few words.

"Your mother and sister are begging me every day to take you back, don't think you're somebody just because you're pretty and well educated..."

As Uncle Chan's car sped by, Tan Mo saw an aggressive man standing in front of Qiao Lan, reaching out as if he was about to get violent.

Tan Mo's pupils suddenly flinched as Uncle Chan rushed out of the car to stop Luo Nian without Tan Mo having to say anything.

There were some students around, some of whom wanted to come forward but never dared, but now when they saw people rushing up, they also rushed up in twos and threes, blocking Luo Nian in.

Luo Nian's face became even more ugly.

Before leaving, he said something like "Tell Qiao Lan to wait", then got into his car and left.

Qiao Lan looked at Uncle Chan with a pale face and then looked at Tan Mo in his wheelchair at the back and ran over in two or three steps, "Tan Mo, what are you doing here?"

Tan Mo's eyes looked at the place where Luo Nian had left, unable to suppress the harshness and anger, "Who was that!"
