Chapter 290: I'm Not a Vampire!
She wanted to grab Qiao Jiasen's arm again but he evaded with impatience, "All of you, out! My father has broken ribs, why don't you go see him? What are you doing here?"
Dou Yuemei reached out to nothing and was somewhat unhappy. "What's wrong with you, child? You're not as affectionate towards your grandma as you used to be. Have you forgotten how much she's doted on you when you were younger?"
"I forgot."
Dou Yuemei was taken aback, then said, "Even if you've forgotten your grandmother's kindness, how dare you hit your father?"
"As a son, you should be filial, obedient. You should never imitate your sister; she is not only unfilial but also took him to court, shattering the relationship between you and your father."
"You must stay away from her! She's full of malice. If you stay too close to her, she'll ruin you!"
"Listen to Grandma, come with me. Let's visit your father. You shouldn't be here taking care of her. Serves her right if she miscarries!"
With every word she said, Qiao Jiasen's face sank further. By the end of her speech, Qiao Jiasen looked as if rain could fall from his gloomy expression.
"So, this is the type of bastard you've raised my father to be!"
Dou Yuemei never expected that after all her bitter advice, her grandson would retort with such words!
"Dear grandson, what are you talking about? How can you talk like that?"
"My father coerced his daughter to have an abortion for money and conspired with that damned Madam Lu. He hasn't done a single decent thing! Moreover, his wrongdoings don't stop there. They are many, and there might even be a lot I don't know about!"
Qiao Jiasen recalled how Qiao Haidong had said before that he secretly extracted a betrothal gift of twenty million from Lu Lingche before Qiao Yin's marriage.
He was up in flames, "I know he's not a good father, but I never thought that Qiao Haidong could be such scum!"
"Had he not been my father, I would've done more than just breaking his ribs! A shameless man like him deserves to be crippled!"
"And if you dare to say anything about my sister deserving her miscarriage again, I'll break your ribs too! How could there be elders like you? She miscarried because her mother-in-law harmed her, and you are here blaming her!"
"All of you, get out, get out!"
His anger was so great that the Qiao Sisters retreated in fear, worrying they would upset him even further.
In the Qiao family, the boys were inherently valued more than the girls. From a young age, they learned to obey, to make all sacrifices for their brothers, never to compete for anything, or even argue with them.
Even though Qiao Jiasen was not their biological brother, his status within the Qiao family was even higher than their real brother. He was perhaps the most esteemed member of the Qiao family.
Dou Yuemei was also somewhat fearful of her grandson, but she was unwilling to let him side with Qiao Yin.
"Dear grandson, if you feel better by breaking your grandma's ribs, then go ahead."
"But you can't stand with Qiao Yin! You're still young and naive, and grandma won't blame you. When you grow up, you'll get how manipulative your sister is."
"Don't blame your father either. Who is he doing it for? Isn't it for you? The home is so indebted, your dad is trying to scrape together some money to keep the family going, it's a last resort!"
Qiao Jiasen's eyes reddened, "It's precisely because the money he got by hook or crook was 'for me' that I resent him! I don't need to live off the blood drained from my sister. I am not a vampire! I'm no parasitic vermin! I can look after myself!"
Qiao Yin sat on the bed, listening to his words, and her tears threatened to fall again.
Her brother's international middle school education wasn't a waste. These principles were definitely not instilled by their family members, but taught by his teachers at school.
He had a good heart.
