Chapter 1786: Did They Think She Was a Weakling? (16)

Qiao Yiyi paused when she saw Li Tingting sitting by Lu Nanze’s bed.

Obviously, Li Tingting had changed her clothes. Although she still looked pale, she was chatting with Lu Nanze.

The man had initially been rather distracted, and even slightly impatient.

But when he heard the sound of someone entering, he turned to look. He instantly looked even more exasperated than before.

He wrinkled his brow and raised his voice, saying, “Why did you take such a long time?”

A long time?

The girl almost rolled her eyes.

She had driven a sports car. If she had done it in normal circumstances, surely it would have taken even longer.

Was Lu Nanze trying to find ways to criticize her?

Although she had these thoughts, she continued looking very passive and agreeable. “I- I’m sorry. This is a hospital, so it was hard to get a taxi.”

Hard to get a taxi?

If she had said this before, Lu Nanze would have never wondered about the meaning behind these words.

But ever since he had realized that Qiao Yiyiy was not as simple as she looked, he couldn’t help pondering the underlying meaning behind every word she said.

Shockingly, things that were seemingly innocent started to take a new meaning.

He suddenly realized that many times in the past, Qiao Yiyi had subtly mocked him.

Just like what she had said now was so obvious.

As Madam Lu, your wife, you don’t even bother calling a driver to send me home and get your clothes.

Lu Nanze was immediately filled with disgust.

Perhaps it was because he had grown up with Qiao Lian, but he had always hated having to guess what a woman was thinking.

Qiao Lian was the sort of upfront person who would call a spade a spade, and Traceless was the same. But Qiao Yiyi… she would play with her words, trying to be subtly sarcastic.

That was just annoying.

He then remembered that Traceless was angry because of Qiao Yiyi, she was the reason why she had left in a huff. This made Lu Nanze even angrier.

He smirked and asked, “What sort of clothes did you bring for me?”

Qiao Yiyi lowered her head and rolled her eyes. Making her go home to get his clothes had just been an excuse, so this had to be just another casual remark.

She held out the bag of clothes to him.

Lu Nanze took a glance at what was in the bag and then frowned. He chided her, “Did you bring these for a begger?!”

Qiao Yiyi: …!!

She looked inside the bag. The set of pajamas that she had carelessly taken from his wardrobe was an old set.

However, she had seen the man wearing these around the house.

She looked up at him instantly as Lu Nanze reprimanded her, “You have no taste at all. I really can’t imagine how you were brought up in the Qiao family.”

When Li Tingting heard this, she immediately added, “Exactly. Qiao Yiyi, you were an illegitimate child, you weren’t raised with love. But now you are Madam Lu, so the way you hold yourself should match Second Brother’s status, for you’re part of his image. Look at the clothes you’ve brought, what are these?”

Then she twitched her lips and continued, “Uncouth people will never look presentable. Even if you’ve married into high society, that hasn’t made you a classy person. You really have to work hard to improve your standing, or you’ll just be an embarrassment to Second Brother.”

She said that in a tone that didn’t sit well with Qiao Yiyi at all.

Qiao Yiyi’s pupils shrank back and she looked up at the other girl.

Then she shifted her gaze to Lu Nanze.

If Lu Nanze had said this, it would just be a husband chiding his wife. But since Li Tingting was the one doing it, that was just an indirect insult to Lu Nanze and a blow to his ego. Surely the man would not ignore this, right?
