Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

Chapter 1399: He Didn’t Want Anything Anymore

Hearing Old Mrs Qiao’s words, Nan Zhi hurriedly took the letter from Mu Sihan’s hands. The handwriting looked like Grandma’s words. But was the blood really Grandma’s?

It should be true.

Old Mrs Qiao probably wouldn’t take out a fake blood letter in such a situation. After all, it was easy to test if it was real or fake.

From the blood letter’s contents, Grandma was really disappointed with Uncle.

Recalling how Uncle was like back then, indeed, he had changed so much that no one knew him anymore.

It was only later that Nan Zhi found out that Uncle already had his drug addiction and he didn’t have control of many of his actions as well.

“Pei Lin had wrote very clearly on the letter that if one day, Qiao Yanze had devastated the Qiao family, she would disown this child and banish him from the Qiao family. The Duke title will then be inherited by her second son, Qiao Yanxuan.”

Mu Sihan furrowed his eyebrows as his cold expression glanced towards the quiet Qiao Yanze. After a few seconds, he finally spoke, “Old Mrs Qiao, I cannot interfere in your family matters. But according to the nation’s rules, we cannot change the person receiving the knighting just like that.”

Old Mrs Qiao nodded. “This time, I didn’t only bring Pei Lin’s letter with me. I also brought the signatures of more than a thousand Qiao family people, both in the country and overseas. They all agreed to banish the unfilial Qiao Yanze out of the Qiao family and let Qiao Yanxuan take charge of the Qiao family.

“Since Your Majesty said that this is our Qiao family’s matters, then I will be the one to take charge. From now on, Qiao Yanze will no longer be part of our Qiao family. It’s alright if Your Majesty doesn’t give Yanxuan the Duke title, but you cannot give an outsider our Qiao family’s Duke title anymore!”

Nan Zhi was extremely angered from Old Mrs Qiao’s words.

This woman had long planned this!

It wasn’t easy to get the signatures of more than a thousand of the Qiao family members in a short time. They had probably started planning and doing it ever since Uncle exterminated the criminal syndicate successfully and had started to rebuild the Qiao family.

Right now, they only appeared after Uncle had rebuilt the Qiao family’s reputation and cleared the Qiao family’s name with his hard work. Now they even banished Uncle from the Qiao family in front of all the nobilities here. Weren’t they being too much?

Nan Zhi suppressed her overwhelming emotions and kept her smile as she glanced towards Old Mrs Qiao. “If this is the Qiao family’s matters, I am also part of the Qiao family. Back then, Uncle was also a victim and he suffered no less than everyone else. He had also earned the knighting this time by exterminating a large criminal syndicate. Do you think a few words from you is enough to erase his achievements?”

Old Mrs Qiao stared at Nan Zhi, who was standing by Qiao Yanze. Her smile was friendly and kind, but a knife was hidden in it. “Your Majesty, I’m not erasing Qiao Yanze’s achievements. If you have an opinion against the family’s petition, you can write another opposing petition and get the family members to sign. In that case, my petition will be rendered useless.”

Hearing the woman’s callous words, Nan Zhi fumed internally. Writing another petition and getting more than a thousand people to sign was not doable within a short time for her, even if she was the Queen.

Everyone said that family matters will always preside over politics. With the Old Madam’s interruption, the knighting ceremony couldn’t continue anymore.

According to the S Country’s Royal rules, family petitions had a certain degree of legality. Back then, Qiao Yanze was adamant on falling for a girl who devastated the entire family and went against Mrs Qiao’s advice and this already angered a large majority of the Qiao family’s people.

Perhaps, there was a small minority that was willing to give Qiao Yanze another chance after his achievements. However, after seeing the blood letter Mrs Qiao had left, those people felt that Qiao Yanze really was a sinner.

Nan Zhi wanted to say more when the silent Qiao Yanze walked in front of her and said, “Zhizhi, let me see the letter.”

“Uncle...”

“It’s alright, just let me see it.” Qiao Yanze’s voice was hoarse.

Staring at Qiao Yanze, Nan Zhi’s eyes couldn’t help but redden. She passed the letter to Qiao Yanze.

Qiao Yanze took the letter and looked at it.

His fingers holding the letter merely trembled slightly at first, but towards the end, they started to shake tremendously.

The day Mother left, he had been arrested and couldn’t be by her side. He knew that Mother hated that he was so incompetent and couldn’t leave at ease.

He hadn’t been willing to recall that sad period. But when he saw Mother’s bloody letter, his heart and organs all clenched together tightly in pain.

His eyes filled with blood as they reddened.

Tears fell and landed on the letter.

“Uncle?”

Qiao Yanze closed his eyes. When he looked up again, he was clearly more calm. However, his eyes were still red. “Your Majesties, if my Second Brother is able to take charge of the Qiao family, I will agree to it. I didn’t want to take the Duke position at first and only took it to continue our family’s honor. If Second Brother wants this position and title, I can give it to him.

“As for the family petition, I will follow the family’s wishes. I cannot shred myself of responsibility from Mother’s death. I am willing to follow her wish.”

Nan Zhi was shocked. “Uncle, what are you saying?”

“Zhizhi, I know your heart aches for me, but I did hurt your Grandma before. Let’s stop talking about it now. Now that the organization has been exterminated, I have no more regrets!”

Qiao Yanze passed the letter back to Nan Zhi, before he turned around and left.

Staring at Qiao Yanze’s slender and lonely back, Nan Zhi didn’t know why but her heart clenched and tears started to fall uncontrollably.

What did Uncle mean?

Why did he say that he didn’t have any more regrets?

Nan Zhi got up, wanting to chase after Uncle. However, a warm and dry hand suddenly grabbed hers.

Nan Zhi turned back and glanced at Mu Sihan. It was then that she remembered that the nobilities were all staring at her.

She wasn’t only Uncle’s niece, she was also the nation’s Queen.

Nan Zhi wiped her tears, forcing herself to regain her senses as she announced the cancellation of the Qiao family’s knighting ceremony.

...

Back in the Crown Palace.

Nan Zhi took out her phone and called Qiao Yanze. However, no one answered the phone at all.

“Zhizhi, I know you’re worried about Uncle, but he’s definitely not in a good mood right now, so let him be alone for now.”

It had been a very long time since Nan Zhi had cried. However, Uncle’s sad and self-reprimanding expression, his low and hoarse voice made her heart ache terribly.

Mom was pregnant right now. If she found out about this, she would definitely be worried, so she could not tell Mom for now.

“I will write an opposing petition right now and get every member that signed that petition to sign again!”

...

Not too long after Qiao Yanze returned to the Qiao family’s old manor, Old Mrs Qiao arrived with Qiao Yanxuan.

Old Mrs Qiao had brought a new butler with her. “Your Second Young Master will be in-charge of this place from now on. As for Third Young Master, he will be banished from the Qiao family and have his name removed from the family tree!”
