Chapter 1053: Chapter 1113

Mi Huan’s face was a little red, but she still nodded.

Qiao Jiezhe saw her agree, and his heart was overflowing with joy. Although she hadn’t agreed to date him yet, as long as she didn’t reject him, he was happy.

Qiao Qiqi, "..."

In the beginning, Qiao Jiezhe was talking to Mi Huan across the aisle. Qiao Qiqi couldn’t stand it anymore and switched seats with Mi Huan, letting them sit next to each other.

It seems like this sister-in-law is a sure thing now.

Throughout the journey, Qiao Qiqi watched her brother chat energetically with Mi Huan, looking more lively than when he was working.

Mi Huan kept chatting with a red face, and she seemed quite happy too.

Qiao Qiqi thought about it and then eagerly invited Mi Huan to stay at their home for a few days. Qiao Jiezhe’s eyes lit up even more after hearing that.

Mi Huan was initially hesitant, but Qiao Qiqi was so enthusiastic that she eventually agreed.

After getting off the plane, they went straight back home.

Qiao Yaozu, upon hearing that his daughter and son were coming back together, went home early to prepare. He made a table full of delicious dishes that evening. Mi Huan felt particularly embarrassed because she came empty-handed.

Qiao Yaozu was not a stubborn person; he was always kind and didn’t mind at all. In fact, he liked this somewhat simple and shy young girl very much.

At the dinner table, Qiao Jiezhe warmly picked food for Mi Huan. His affection was palpable even from a distance.

Qiao Yaozu, having experienced life, naturally knew that his son liked this girl and was pursuing her.

He felt relieved that his son was finally coming to his senses.

That night, Qiao Qiqi chatted with her dad about the current situation of the Lu Family.

"There’s no movement from the Lu Family right now." Qiao Yaozu found his daughter’s question somewhat perplexing, wondering if something might happen with the Lu Family.

"No, I was just asking casually."

Since her dad didn’t know, she decided not to worry him for now.

That night, Qiao Qiqi went to the Lu Family’s house, secretly entering their home late at night.

The Lu Family had already fallen asleep by then. Using her experience and a bit of her memory from a past life, Qiao Qiqi found Mr. Lu’s room.

There were people guarding his room, and a woman was wiping her tears at the bedside.

When Qiao Qiqi came in, she startled the two of them. She said, "Don’t be afraid. I am Qiao Qiqi. I came to see Grandpa Lu."

"What are you doing here so late?" The woman, Mr. Lu’s daughter, glared unhappily at the girl who entered through the window.

"Mr. Lu isn’t ill. He’s been poisoned," Qiao Qiqi concluded after just one look at Mr. Lu’s complexion.

"What?" The woman looked at her in horror, then turned to look at her father.

The butler was also shocked, looking disbelievingly at the sick old man on the bed.

"If you trust me, I can treat him. However, in front of others, let Grandpa Lu pretend to be sick. Someone in your family is eager to seize power." Qiao Qiqi explained her intentions.

Her words turned the faces of the butler and Lu Juan pale, but the experienced butler immediately rushed to the door and locked it.

Qiao Qiqi was certain that, at the very least, these two could be trusted.

"How do you know?" Lu Juan anxiously inquired, her eyes still wary.

"Let me first check on Grandpa Lu and see what kind of poison it is," Qiao Qiqi said.

Lu Juan hesitated but eventually agreed. She figured that Qiao Qiqi was just a little girl; how could she have come to the Lu Family to harm anyone?

Qiao Qiqi examined Mr. Lu and, as she had expected, he was indeed poisoned, and it was not a matter of a day or two; it had been at least half a year.
