Qiao Xuan would stay in S Country for a few more days. After all, he still had to perform the surgery on the Old Master. He would only leave after the Old Master recovered and returned to the country.

Before she left, Qiao Yue had a private conversation with the Old Master and asked about her mother, “Grandfather, I’ve heard some rumors since I returned to the Qiao family. I wonder if you know about them.”

Old master Qiao looked at Qiao Yue gently, his eyes full of the love of an elder to a junior, “What is it?”

Qiao Yue thought for a moment and decided to get straight to the point, “Grandpa, I heard that you didn’t chase my mother out of the Qiao family because she eloped with someone. Instead, my mother stole something, right?”

In fact, the rumor was that her mother had been chased out of the family because she had eloped, but when Qiao Yue was asking Old Master Qiao about it, she still said that rumors had it her mother had stolen something. She wanted to see his reaction.

Upon hearing Qiao Yue’s words, Old Master Qiao’s expression abruptly changed and his voice was full of coldness, “Who spread the rumors? Tell me, Grandpa will help you!”

Although Qiao Yue had expected Old Master Qiao to have a reaction to this matter, she didn’t expect it to be so big.

“I just heard it by chance. I’m not sure who spread the rumors exactly,” Qiao Yue said vaguely.

“The servants said that?” Old master Qiao asked.

“I’m not too sure about this. I only heard about it from outside the door,” Qiao Yue naturally couldn’t say that it was Qiao Yu and Qiao Xin who told her, so she could only give a vague answer. Qiao Yu had only told her out of good intentions, so she couldn’t possibly sell him. As for Qiao Xin, she still wanted to learn more from her, so she couldn’t tell on her either.

Old master Qiao snorted coldly, “These people don’t know anything and yet they dare to spread rumors. When I return, I’ll help you teach them a lesson.”

Qiao Yue was silent for a moment. She didn’t let the Old Master change the topic. Instead, she asked again, “Grandpa, did my mother really take something from the Qiao family?”

The more Old Master Qiao tried to change the topic, the more it showed that something had really happened, and Qiao Yue wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Old master Qiao looked at Qiao Yue with a complicated expression. He knew that his grandson wanted to get to the bottom of it, so he only sighed and said, “Your mother didn’t take anything from the Qiao family. If you hear gossip or someone asks you in the future, you can tell them that your mother left the Qiao family empty-handed and didn’t take anything with her. If they ask you how you know, just say that your grandfather said it himself.”

Qiao Yue’s eyes darkened slightly. Whether it was a misunderstanding or something else, there must be a reason for rumors to spread. Moreover, judging from her grandfather’s actions now, he must know something that he wasn’t telling her.

“Grandpa, if it’s not because of elopement or theft, why did you kick my mother out of the Qiao family?”

Qiao Yue kept asking questions, and Old Master Qiao’s gaze on her became increasingly complicated, “Xiao Yue, let bygones be bygones. Since your mother didn’t tell you, I won’t tell you either. Go along, then. Xiao Jing told me you have to go back to school tomorrow, so you should return home early and have a good rest.”

Qiao Yue could hear the heavy tone in her grandfather’s words. What exactly happened that year that made even the head of the Qiao family reluctant to disclose?

After confirming that she wouldn’t be able to find out more about the situation back then, Qiao Yue could only tell her grandfather to rest well.

However, she noticed that ever since she mentioned the theft, her grandfather had been in a very low mood. He didn’t even say anything about her returning to the country.

Before leaving the ward, Qiao Yue looked back at the emaciated Old Master lying on the bed. She opened her mouth, but in the end, only left silently.

Outside the door, Qiao Xuan and Qiao Jing were waiting for her. Seeing her come out, Qiao Xuan walked over and asked, “How is it? What did you talk to grandpa about?”

Qiao Yue collected her emotions and smiled, “It’s nothing. I just told grandpa to rest more. Grandpa is very good to me, so I hope that he can get better soon.”

Qiao Xuan looked at Qiao Yue for a while before smiling and nodding.

After sending the two of them to the airport, Qiao Xuan placed an exquisitely wrapped box in Qiao Yue’s hands, “You came and left in a hurry this time, so I didn’t prepare anything. Take this first, and when I get back, I’ll get you something better.”
