Qiao Yaozu asked where Bai Xiaoru was.

Hearing the question, Old Mrs. Qiao was stunned.

That day, when Bai Xiaoru was giving birth to the baby, she looked so pitiful. For the first time, Old Mrs. Qiao called Qiao Yaozu to come, but he refused.

She had thought that Qiao Yaozu had no feelings for Bai Xiaoru.

But now, his grandson asked about her.

Old Mrs. Qiao certainly wouldn't tell Qiao Yaozu the truth.

Bai Xiaoru's matter had caused so much trouble. She would never let Qiao Yaozu have anything to do with that woman again.

She put on a long face and said, "Yaozu, why did you ask about Bai Xiaoru? I asked you to come when Bai Xiaoru was giving birth to the baby, but you refused to come."

Qiao Yaozu lowered his head in silence.

What Qiao Shaoting had told him that day came to his mind.

After a long while, he said in a low voice, "Grandma, I won't ask about her anymore."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

He walked away slowly with a depressed look.

Old Mrs. Qiao didn't stop him. Instead, she had a headache.

Because of the recent incidents about Fang Liyuan and Liu Qingqing, she had no time to care about Bai Xiaoru.

Now that Qiao Yaozu had mentioned her, she realized that Bai Xiaoru was also big trouble.

After all, she was taking care of her great-grandson.

She had planned to give her great-grandson to Fang Liyuan, but what Qiao Shaoting said dispelled her idea.

Especially when she saw that Fang Liyuan had done such an extreme thing, she didn't dare to bring her great-grandson to her anymore.

But if she didn't do that, should the baby continue to be taken care of by Bai Xiaoru?

It was impossible because Bai Xiaoru would not have anything to do with Qiao Yaozu. It would be best if she disappeared in the North from now on.

The more she thought about it, the more pain she felt. In the end, she gave up.

She was too old to think of a good idea.

What happened recently did frustrate her.

As for Bai Xiaoru's matter, she'd better wait for Shaoting to come back and discuss it with him.

It was getting late.

It was winter now, and the cold wind was blowing at night.

The North was very cold in winter. Even though there was heating in Qiao Palace, it still made people feel quite cold.

Qiao Yaozu shuddered.

He wanted to cover himself with the quilt and have a sleep.

But Fang Liyuan did not let him do that.

She asked him to wait for Qiao Shaoting to come back.

Qiao Yaozu looked at her pitifully and said, "Honey, can I sleep first? I am sleepy. I'll talk to Shaoting tomorrow."

How could Fang Liyuan be willing to wait till tomorrow?

She had to ask Qiao Yaozu to say he loved her in front of Qiao Shaoting today.

After all, today was the first day that she returned. If Qiao Yaozu came to Qiao Shaoting and said those words to show the value of her identity, she would be relieved.

Fang Liyuan coaxed him in a kind tone, "Yaozu, wait for a long while. Shaoting will be back soon. Tell him that you love me very much, and you can go to bed."

"Honey, I'm so cold. I don't want to wait any longer."

In the past, if he didn't agree to Fang Liyuan's request, she would have slapped on his face.

But now, things had changed.

Fang Liyuan didn't dare to use force against Qiao Yaozu, nor did she dare to scold him. She could only coax him with sweet words.

It had to be said that she was still important to Qiao Yaozu. No matter how cold he was, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
