From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love-Chapter 366: The Man Outside the Window

Chen Man didn’t expect Zhengyang to refuse her so decisively.

The family was watching her, making Chen Man feel very embarrassed.

Chen Man asked angrily, "Zhengyang, I’m just asking to borrow five million dollars, not saying I won’t pay it back. You won’t even lend five million dollars?"

"Manman, it’s not that I don’t want to lend it to you, it’s that I really don’t have five million dollars right now,"

"Zhengyang, you won’t agree even if I write an IOU?"

"Manman, it’s not about the IOU, it’s about me literally not having the money right now. The company is scaling up production, and I need the funds. Manman, you are always so understanding, you can understand this, right?"

"I can’t understand, I really can’t understand," Chen Man hung up the phone.

Yao Yuzhi said, "Manman, take my advice and break up with this kind of man. Although he may not necessarily have to lend you the money, he refused without even hesitating; do you really think he loves you?"

Chen Man didn’t speak.

At that moment, Xinwan and Qiaoqiao walked out from inside.

Xinwan said, "Mom, big brother, sister-in-law, everything is packed up, and the discharge procedures are completed. I’ll leave first with Qiaoqiao. Qiaoqiao has classes in the afternoon, I’ll take her to school."

Yao Yuzhi nodded lovingly: "Qiaoqiao, you worked hard."

"It’s not hard, Grandma, Uncle, Aunt, I’ll go ahead."

Chen Hesong said with a smile, "Qiaoqiao, let me take you."

"No need, I will take Qiaoqiao, you guys chat," Xinwan said.

Xinwan left with Qiaoqiao, and neither of them spoke to Chen Man.

Chen Man stood still, she hadn’t expected Xinwan and Qiaoqiao to be inside. Hadn’t they just witnessed her embarrassment?

Chen Man’s emotions were written all over her face, Chi Chang saw it in a glance what she was thinking and said, "Manman, Qiaoqiao and your aunt came to drop us. We asked them to come, don’t overthink it. We didn’t expect you to come, considering how you’ve been so absorbed in your relationship that you don’t recognize your own relatives anymore."

Chen Man kept her head down, silent.

...

Xinwan took Qiaoqiao to have dinner at a western restaurant.

The mother and daughter were talking when a young man in a suit approached, warmly greeting them.

"Aunt Bai, what a coincidence, you are dining here too."

Qiaoqiao looked up to see a handsome, well-mannered man greeting Xinwan.

Xinwan smiled and said, "Lu Wang, long time no see."

Lu Wang pulled out a chair, uninvited, "Aunt Bai, is this your daughter?"

"Yes, this is my daughter Nan Qiao."

Nan Qiao smiled politely, "Hello, I am Nan Qiao."

Lu Wang extended his hand, humbly and politely, "Hello."

Nan Qiao extended her hand, briefly shook it, then withdrew her hand.

"Lu Wang, I haven’t seen your mother for a long time, how is she doing lately?"

"She is doing well. My mom said she’ll have time for tea together with you."

Nan Qiao listened to their conversation, who was Lu Wang?

She knew the Lu Family, like Zhengyang’s family.

Nan Qiao stayed quiet, listening to their conversation.

After a while, Lu Wang left.

Nan Qiao quietly asked, "Mom, could it be that Lu Wang is related to Zhengyang’s family?"

Xinwan softly replied, "Yes, Zhengyang is the illegitimate son, and Lu Wang is the legitimate child of the Lu Family. Lu Wang’s mother fell ill over this matter and was sent abroad for recuperation by Lu Wang. Lu Wang often travels between domestic and international locations, a filial son."

Xinwan continued, "Zhengyang and his mother live in the Lu Family home, and Lu Wang’s father has lost his senses, choosing not to enjoy his good days, instead, he opted to pursue an affair. Lu Wang has commendable business skills; weighing the pros and cons, his father handed over most of the family business to him to manage, giving nothing to Zhengyang."

Nan Qiao snorted disdainfully, "If Lu Wang didn’t have business skills, his father wouldn’t let him manage the family business. His father is a scoundrel too, unfaithful to his wife, and not good to his children."

Speaking of this, Xinwan sighed, "When a couple lives together, in the end, it’s all about conscience. Lu Wang’s mother didn’t divorce because she didn’t want the mistress to enter the Lu Family legally, intending to keep the mistress forever just that."

Nan Qiao gave a thumbs up: "Lu Wang’s mom is really open-minded,"

The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

...

Nan Qiao returned to school and went to the Principal’s office.

Upon hearing the knock, Principal Qi personally went to open the door for Nan Qiao.

"Big Boss, you’re here. Would you like some tea, coffee, or a soft drink?"

As Nan Qiao walked in, she saw that the Principal had bought many different kinds of beverages, including several types of tea.

Nan Qiao: "..."

"Principal Qi, you’re being too polite; you didn’t have to buy all these drinks specially."

"Big Boss, it’s what I should do," replied the Principal.

Nan Qiao sat down, and Principal Qi also sat down.

"Principal Qi, what did you need me for?" Nan Qiao asked.

"Well, Big Boss, our school is planning to join a competition. Since you’re also here at the school, could you please participate in the Medical College competition?"

Without even thinking, Nan Qiao refused: "Principal Qi, I came to study with a wish to keep a low profile. You should find other students for the competition. You know I’m quite busy and really don’t have time for it."

The Principal’s mood turned bitterer than a bitter melon.

"Big Boss, please help us out," Principal Qi pleaded with a sorrowful expression.

Nan Qiao stood up: "Principal Qi, I’m really sorry, but I truly do not have the time. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first."

Nan Qiao got up and left gracefully.

The Principal sighed and took out his cellphone to make a call.

"Old Yu, you and your bad ideas, the Big Boss didn’t agree! It’s all because of your poor suggestion. When asking for a favor, it’s definitely better to arrange a table at a restaurant."

Old Yu burst into laughter: "Old Qi, not to criticize you, but you really are clueless. Knowing the Big Boss won’t help you actually reassures me."

Old Yu hung up the phone.

Principal Qi: ?

He suddenly realized something!

"Old Yu, that old fox, he’s setting me up! To think I’ve considered him a good friend for decades, yet he’s putting me in this spot!" Principal Qi slapped his thigh, filled with regret.

Meanwhile.

Nan Qiao was walking on a campus path when she received a call from Old Mr. Yu.

Nan Qiao told him, "Sorry, I prefer to keep a low profile and not join these competitions."

Nan Qiao hung up the phone.

...

At night, Nan Qiao lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Nan Qiao sat up, talking to herself: "Could it be the milk tea I drank at night that’s keeping me awake?"

Lying in bed, Nan Qiao took out her cellphone to message Li Yehan.

Nan Qiao: Li Yehan, when will you be back? How is it going with my senior brother? Do you need any help?

Nan Qiao didn’t wait for Li Yehan’s reply, but she heard the notification sound for a new message.

Nan Qiao: ??

Nan Qiao sat up and looked out the window.

Li Yehan stood by the window, his handsome face as captivating as ever.

Nan Qiao’s eyes widened in disbelief, then turned to wild joy. Without even putting on shoes, she ran to the window.

Li Yehan pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.
