Officer Qiao was present as well.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan walked in and greeted them politely.
Officer Qiao and his wife were not at all interested in their presents. The maids took them away the moment they accepted them.
Officer Qiao nodded at them and behaved as if he had given them the biggest favor. "Take a seat."
"Thanks, Father-in-law."
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan sat down. Qiao Xuan had her eyes lowered and uttered no sound.
Officer Qiao frowned and looked disgusted by how Qiao Xuan behaved.
This was the concubine's daughter he hated the most. She was timid, weak and quiet. She was not open-minded like Wei, nor was she lovely like Kou. She was not at all interesting for anyone to hang out with.
She simply wasn't pleasing to look at.
But Officer Qiao had not thought about what made Qiao Xuan become so. Her mother, who was alive in the past, had been bullied by his wife all the time. What could a concubine's daughter like her do to survive?
