The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 262
Wu Lening was also startled, and seeing her daughter run out, she immediately got up to follow her.
Qiao Yue’er and Old Mrs. Qiao exchanged glances, and Qiao Yue’er hurriedly pretended to help the old lady walk outside.
Qiao Yue’er was seething inside, just when Mom was about to get angry, a conflict would surely arise between her and Qiao Qiqi, creating a rift that would be very advantageous for her. Just at that moment, someone’s scream diverted everyone’s attention.
What bad luck!
Qiao Qiqi and Wu Lening stepped outside, only to see Sister-in-law Zhang running from the direction of the second level, calling out as she ran, her face pale with fright.
"What’s going on?" Qiao Qiqi stopped Sister-in-law Zhang.
"Ghosts! There are ghosts! There are ghosts in the basement!" Sister-in-law Zhang was evidently frightened, even stammering as she spoke.
"Stop talking nonsense, where would ghosts come from in broad daylight?" Wu Lening immediately scolded.
"Don’t be anxious, just calm down and tell us what happened, okay?" Qiao Qiqi couldn’t help but give a big nod to Sister-in-law Zhang’s acting skills, yes, this was all arranged by her in advance.
She knew very well that Qiao Yue’er would come back and complain to Mom, she didn’t want to hear Mom nag, so she used Qian Mentao to divert Mom’s attention, once Mom discovered that woman, she would have no time to reprimand her, avoiding the mother-daughter conflict.
"There really is a ghost! Just in the basement, Madam, you can come and see if you don’t believe me." Sister-in-law Zhang’s panic made Wu Lening also nervous inside, forgetting all about the previous matter of reproving her daughter.
Qiao Yue’er and Old Mrs. Qiao exchanged glances again, already knowing that it was Qian Mentao who had been discovered, this matter absolutely couldn’t be spread, especially not let Qiao Qiqi, that little wild seed, know, if she knew, who knows what trouble she would stir up!
With her heartless nature, she would likely have the police arrest Qiao Guangzong.
Qiao Yue’er was still planning to notify the mistress’s lover to pick up the person tonight, surely they wouldn’t let Qiao Qiqi off, but unexpectedly Qiao Qiqi acted quicker.
"Everyone, come over here, lead the way and we’ll go see!" Wu Lening didn’t believe it was a ghost, but just what was the matter, she had to get it clear in her own house.
"Wait! Don’t go." Old Mrs. Qiao feared her eldest son would be implicated and spoke to stop the second daughter-in-law.
"Mom, what’s wrong? We must see what’s going on, otherwise the house isn’t safe."
"I said there’s no need to go!" Old Mrs. Qiao’s expression turned grim, since moving house, this daughter-in-law had become increasingly disobedient.
"It seems Grandma knows what’s going on, why don’t you tell us what’s really inside?" Qiao Qiqi looked at Old Mrs. Qiao as she questioned.
Old Mrs. Qiao glared at her and said, "Anyway, I said you mustn’t go, don’t meddle with what’s there! I will handle it myself."
Wu Lening furrowed her brows even tighter listening to this, subconsciously looking at her daughter. Qiao Qiqi said, "If Grandma refuses to talk, I think we should go take a look, Mom, this is our family, if something really happens, Dad might be in trouble with the law."
"Yes, we can’t ignore it, we have to see." Her husband was Wu Lening’s everything, she would agree to anything, but her husband must not be in trouble.
"Wu Lening, are you not even listening to me now!" Old Mrs. Qiao became anxious, rushing over to grab her second daughter-in-law.
Qiao Qiqi stepped forward to block the old lady, who rushed too fiercely, and being suddenly blocked, she fell backward, landing squarely on her behind.
