The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 256

"You..." Joe's mother was exasperated and clutched her own chest, her face was ashen.

"Forgive your daughter for being unfilial. If I don't do this, I will regret it for the rest of my life and forever feel remorse."

Qiao Wanzhou looked at Joe's parents with icy cold eyes. The obedient smile that had always been on her face turned icy cold.

After speaking, she dragged her suitcase and left Joe's home.

Although the New Year had passed, the spring wind was still unusually cold.

After leaving, Qiao Wanzhou sat in the car and realized that in this huge prosperous city, there was no place for her to stay.

With no other choice, she called Rong Dai again.

She didn't even understand why she trusted Rong Dai so much.

Rong Dai gave her a sense of trust and reliance. She couldn't help but want to get close to someone like this.

Rong Dai didn't sleep well last night and had just gotten up. After washing up, she saw seven or eight missed calls on her phone, some from Huo Shao Ting and some from her mother-in-law.

She was about to call Huo Shao Ting back when Qiao Wanzhou's call came in.

"Sister Wanzhou, is there anything else?"

To reassure Qiao Wanzhou, she had to change the casual "Miss Qiao" to "Sister Wanzhou."

On the phone, Qiao Wanzhou hesitated a little, and her tone was apologetic, "...Rong Dai, I'm really sorry, this has nothing to do with you originally."

"I left the Qiao family and have nowhere to go. Can I...come to your house? Or can you find a place to shelter me for a while? Just a few days..."

For the first time, Qiao Wanzhou realized how lonely she was.

In order to chase after Zhou Jing, she had built her whole world around him, and lost herself.

Rong Dai frowned. 𝗳r𝐞𝐞w𝐞bn𝚘ve𝚕.co𝐦

She was still busy with work, and the matter between Qiao Wanzhou and Zhou Jing was at its most precarious point.

Recalling when Qiao Wanzhou was drunk before, she was a little apprehensive.

Other than taking care of Huo Shao Ting, she was not good at taking care of others.

But thinking of the vicious words on Weibo last night, and her experience from her previous life telling her that Qiao Wanzhou's situation was very difficult right now.

She couldn't help sighing deeply in her heart, feeling very helpless and disgusted with herself.

She had said she wouldn't get involved in other people's business, but here she was getting involved again.

Helping Qiao Wanzhou twice already went against her principles.

"Then come over, be low-key, don't drive your own car. Tell me where you are and I'll have Uncle Li pick you up."

Rong Dai finally answered after a few seconds.

"Thank you, Rong Dai. I really..."

Qiao Wanzhou almost cried. She never thought there would come a day when she would be so disheveled.

"You can stay with me for a few days, but Shao Ting is coming back, and I can arrange a place for you to live. You need to resolve things with Senior Zhou, and I'm busy with work these days so I may not have time to accompany you."

Rong Dai clearly laid out her expectations upfront.

Although she knew Qiao Wanzhou was not an unreasonable woman, sometimes when helping people, even with good intentions, things may not turn out as hoped, and she would end up working hard for no reward.

She didn't want to be the bad guy or waste her time on other people's affairs.

Helping Qiao Wanzhou three times already exceeded her principles.

"I understand, thank you."

Qiao Wanzhou nodded and replied to her, then gave her an address.

After hanging up, Rong Dai didn't hesitate to call Uncle Li.

Just after ending the call with Uncle Li, Huo Shao Ting's call came in.

Seeing his call, Rong Dai immediately answered.

"Still sleepy?"

Huo Shao Ting sat in a chair, his handsome face looked tired, but when he spoke to her, his deep eyes were full of tenderness.

"Not sleepy anymore. Are you okay? You should be sleeping at this time."

Hearing his voice, Rong Dai's heart inexplicably calmed down, and she softly asked him.

"Mm, going to sleep soon, was worried about you so wanted to talk to you first."

The man's voice was light and clear. Even across thousands of miles, she could hear his deep longing and tenderness.

After the husband and wife shared their longing for each other, Rong Dai briefly recounted what happened last night.

"You handle it well, I trust my wife's capabilities."

Of course Huo Shao Ting knew what was happening in Shenjing. Anything related to his wife, no matter how small, he would take to heart.

Since his wife thought Qiao Wanzhou was worth helping, as long as she was happy doing it, then go ahead and do it well.

Even if she failed, he would still be behind her.

"Don't have any worries. Other than you, there is no one in this world who can defeat me. I only care about you, your happiness is more important than anything."

Before Rong Dai could even voice her concerns, Huo Shao Ting seemed to foresee them and took the initiative to reassure her and set her mind at ease.

"Don't care what others say. As long as you think this is something you want to do, and won't harm innocent people, then do it. I unconditionally support you, dear."

Huo Shao Ting reassured her.

Although his little woman was smart and calm, sometimes she seemed a bit cold and heartless.

No one was born heartless. It was only because her passion had been frozen and shattered countless times that she became cold.

She had a softer heart than anyone else.

Rong Dai's heart shuddered, and a warm feeling spread from her heart through her limbs and body. Her nose couldn't help but turn slightly sour.

The worries in her heart dissipated bit by bit.

This man was always so gentle, always so considerate.

The feeling of being trusted and cared for by someone resolved the discord from her past like a healing balm.

"Thank you, Shao Ting."

Her fingers clasping the phone tightened slightly as she looked down at the cup in her hand, tenderness and moved feelings intertwined in her beautiful eyes, extremely touching.

"Come back soon, I'll be waiting for you at home."

"Mm, be sure to eat on time and rest well."

Huo Shao Ting exhorted her, and the husband and wife reluctantly hung up.

Looking at the now silent phone, longing surged in Rong Dai's heart like the tides. She desperately wanted to lean against his chest, listen to his heartbeat, and feel the warmth of his body.

It took a long time for the warmth and longing in her heart to subside. She remembered there were still missed calls from her mother-in-law to return, so she immediately called back.

When Lu Zheng answered her call, her mood was a bit unhappy.

"Mother, I'm truly sorry I didn't answer your call last night. I slept too late. Is there something going on? Do you need me to come back?"

Rong Dai's tone was very low when she spoke first, her attitude was very humble and sensible. Lu Zheng certainly couldn't bring herself to scold her.

In fact, Rong Dai knew why her mother-in-law had called her.

Her mother-in-law was close friends with Qiao's mother, and she had sent over screenshots from Weibo last night.

From her experience in her previous life, in addition to Zhou Jing's own issues, the attitude of the Qiao family was also a reason why he was so insecure.

A family background like the Qiaos certainly didn't want someone like Zhou Jing as their son-in-law.

For Qiao Wanzhou and Zhou Jing, who had never had any scandals before, last night's news could at most be considered some stormy waves, not really a scandal.

But for the Qiao family, it was a scandal. They were already very dissatisfied that Qiao Wanzhou entered the entertainment industry.

Now there was also this entanglement with someone in the industry. Of course their mentality would collapse.
