Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Qiao Haidong, My Patience Has Limits
Qiao Jiasen had never paid attention to the flowers in his home before. He hadn’t realized that flowers could cost so much!
He erupted with anger, “What was, was! Now is now! The company is already bankrupt, yet you still dare to spend so recklessly?! From now on, not even a single flower shall be bought! Not a single vase shall be bought! If you dare to buy, I dare to smash them all!”
Jiang Huiru was both terrified and aggrieved. She fell onto the sofa, bursting into tears, “It was only a flower that I bought, and you threatened to smash all my vases. You’re not the same as before, you’ve completely changed!”
“You’re not my son anymore. Give me back the obedient boy you used to be!”
“You used to never care about these little things, you never used to get angry at me!”
Qiao Jiasen looked at her coldly, “Your son has already died, ever since our home went bankrupt. When you and my dad repeatedly forced Qiao Yin to give money, and you squandered it all away, I had already died.”
“When you incurred a huge amount of debt, but still tried to transfer assets to evade responsibility, I had already died.”
“When your true greedy and shameless faces were revealed, I no longer wanted to be your son because it was just too embarrassing!”
Hearing his harsh words, Jiang Huiru cried even more bitterly, “It’s all Qiao Yin’s fault! She must have brainwashed you. She never wished us well, deliberately driving a wedge between our mother-son relationship! She is just a jinx, whoever she appears around will face great calamity!”
In the past, Jiang Huiru always rambled to Qiao Jiasen about how Qiao Yin was a jinx that brings misfortune to everyone else.
Qiao Jiasen had once truly believed that Qiao Yin was the root of all bad luck.
But now, he knew better. Qiao Yin wasn’t the source of the misfortune; she was just the most pitiful victim.
“Qiao Yin has never tried to break up our family. It’s your paranoia. Next time, I don’t want to hear you slander her as a jinx, because she’s not!”
Jiang Huiru’s eyes widened, “Now you’re completely siding with Qiao Yin, and not with your own mother? What kind of spell has she put on you!”
Ignoring her, Qiao Jiasen walked over to Qiao Haidong.
He stretched out his hand to Qiao Haidong, “Hand it over.”
Qiao Haidong took a step back, “What?”
“The bank card, the one you hid yesterday.”
Qiao Haidong forced a smile, “What bank card? You must be mistaken, son.”
“Qiao Haidong, my patience is limited.”
“There really isn’t any. Last time, you already took away all the money at home, I’m broke now!”
“No money left?”
Qiao Jiasen’s gaze turned to the mess on the floor, the weirdly colored flowers, “If there’s no money, how could my mother afford to spend sixty or seventy thousand on flowers? A dozen varieties, most of which I don’t even recognize. The stranger the flower, the more expensive it is. Given she purchased them so readily, you must have earned quite a bit, didn’t you?”
Feeling annoyed, Qiao Haidong glared at Jiang Huiru and couldn’t help but berate her, “I gave you the money for household expenses, to buy clothes and food for our son. What’s the point of buying these fancy, impractical flowers? Qiao Yin was already disgusted by it, and now our son too. Are you trying to get me killed!”
Jiang Huiru continued to cry, “Why is everyone blaming me! I just bought some flowers, what’s the big deal? Doesn’t every household buy flowers? They make me feel better, so yes I will buy them! Other people buy even more, I’m already considered very thrifty!”
Qiao Jiasen didn’t bother listening to her crying or protesting. She never reflects on her actions. She doesn’t want to contribute, just wants to live a good life. When there’s a problem, she only knows to blame others.
His gaze firmly fixed on Qiao Haidong, “Exactly how much did you earn? How did you earn it? Why would Qiao Yin come here? Tell me!”
