220 Departure
“Dad, I can’t be part of this family anymore.”
Qiao Yi sat on the floor and wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. The color of blood spread across his cheek and made him look sinister.
“Qiao Yi! Did your mother and I give birth to you and raise you just to have you involve yourself in that kind of unscrupulous business?” Old Master Qiao reprimanded his son.
Qiao Yi shook his head and slowly got up. He looked at the other descendants of the Qiao family who were kneeling and said, “Dad, you’ve told me since young that I can inherit the Qiao family assets only if I do my job well.”
Qiao Yi looked at Old Master Qiao with a cold smile. “I didn’t do well in the mainstream businesses, so you sent me overseas to gain experience. I worked hard alone for so many years and finally found a way to make a fortune, but you say that I’m unscrupulous.”
“Dad, are your sons and grandsons not as good as your goddaughter and her son? But you must know that Qiao Qing’s surname isn’t Qiao. Neither is Qiao Yue’s. They’re not your family!”
Qiao Yue looked coldly at her uncle who was crying and laughing at the same time. This man looked almost insane.
Old Master Qiao couldn’t be blamed for not handing over the family assets to Qiao Yi. His impatient personality didn’t make him a suitable heir.
“You see, because big brother likes your goddaughter, you’re willing to help him. I’m just...”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” The old master took the punishment cane from one of the bodyguards and struck Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi stood up straight and received the forceful stroke.
Old Master Qiao was very forceful. After he caned Qiao Yi, he lost his balance and fell backward.
Qiao Jing and Qiao Yue immediately went forward to support Old Master Qiao.
“If you want to leave, then leave today. Apart from Qiao Yi, finish caning the rest!” The old master fainted as soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone carried the old master back to his room in a flurry.
Qiao Ren was still kneeling on the floor.
Qiao Yi looked at the crowd from afar and sneered, “Big brother, it’s been hard on you too. You’re always so weak and useless.”
“You’re the one who’s useless.”
Qiao Ren replied without even looking at Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi was struck rather forcefully just now. There was a deep wrinkle on the back of his shirt and blood was seeping out.
“Big brother, I shan’t say more but I can’t be here anymore.”
Qiao Yi turned to leave.
A few bodyguards saw that Qiao Yi was about to leave and came forward to stop him.
“Let him go,” Qiao Ren said.
“Young Master Ren, the old master...” the butler whispered to Qiao Ren.
“Let him go. I’ll explain to the old master.”
Qiao Yi quickly went upstairs to pack up and leave with his wife and Qiao Ze.
When he was leaving, he saw Qiao Yu standing at the door. “Qiao Yu, aren’t you coming with us?”
Qiao Yi frowned as he looked at his unmoved younger son.
“Dad, now is not the time for you to leave the Qiao family.”
“The Qiao family has already abandoned me to this extent, and the old master has already fainted because of me. Do you think Qiao Jing and Qiao Yue will let me off?”
“Dad, let it go.” Qiao Yu looked at Qiao Yi and said. “Your businesses overseas aren’t upright at all and you almost killed me and fifth brother the last time. Are you really going to continue?”
Qiao Yi looked at his son, who had always been well-behaved and hadn’t complained even after the kidnapping incident, and was moved.
It was a pity that he was blinded by his lucrative business overseas and he couldn’t think straight.
“Qiao Yu, you are all grown up now. You don’t need Dad to teach you anything anymore.” Qiao Yi lowered his head and smiled helplessly. “In any case, the Qiao family still treats you like a grandson. You don’t have to tell people that I’m your father in future.”
Qiao Yi walked past Qiao Yu and out the door.
Qiao Yu looked at Qiao Ze, who was following behind their father, and the two of them exchanged a brief look.
Qiao Yu let out a long sigh as he watched his three closest family members get into the car.
He always assumed that his father would cut all ties with the Qiao family someday, but he never expected the day to come so soon and so suddenly.
Qiao Yi’s room had already become empty. Qiao Yu looked at the place where he grew up and felt a strong sense of unfamiliarity and loss.
Since young, his father had forced him to be on good terms with everyone and live a perfect life like Qiao Xuan. But he had never figured out the meaningfulness of it all.
