"What's wrong with that woman? Shaoting has been so humble. What else does she want?" Old Mrs. Qiao complained.

Waston sighed, "Old Mrs. Qiao, Mr. Qiao has broken Qin Yu's heart, so she refused to be with him."

He spoke for Qin Yu because when he met her last time, she spoke what she thought. He knew that she did feel heartbroken.

He had no reason to blame Qin Yu.

So when Old Mrs. Qiao criticized Qin Yu, Waston subconsciously defended her.

Old Mrs. Qiao fell silent.

After a moment, she said, "Is Shaoting really unable to win back that woman's favor? Is she really unwilling to get back together with him?"

"I suppose so," Waston answered. "Old Mrs. Qiao, to tell you the truth, Mr. Qiao has tried many ways to win her love, but none of them works."

Old Mrs. Qiao didn't say anything more but hung up the phone.

After that, she was a little angry.

How dare Qin Yu refuse to forgive Qiao Shaoting!

Her grandson was the dignified president of the North, while Qin Yu was just an ordinary woman. Although he had misunderstood her before, now that he knew he was wrong and wanted to get back together with her, she should immediately agree.

Why didn't she agree?

It was so unreasonable.

The anger inside Old Mrs. Qiao did not disappear for a long while. Then it gradually dissipated because she had thought it through.

It was useless for her to be angry.

Qin Yu wouldn't come back if she did nothing.

In that way, her grandson would be in a bad mood forever.

Old Mrs. Qiao was not stupid.

Since Qin Yu left the North, she had seen Qiao Shaoting's changes.

And Qiao Palace was getting more and more lonely.

When Qin Yu was living here, although Old Mrs. Qiao didn't like her and often got angry, at least Qiao Palace was lively.

Unlike now, Old Mrs. Qiao couldn't see anyone except the servants.

Time passed, and it was noon.

Old Mrs. Qiao asked the servant to call Qiao Shaoting for lunch. A moment later, the servant came back and told Old Mrs. Qiao that she couldn't wake him up.

Old Mrs. Qiao made no answer.

She knew that it was not because Qiao Shaoting couldn't wake up but because he didn't want to wake up.

"Forget it. It doesn't matter," Old Mrs. Qiao said. "I'm afraid he's not in the mood to have lunch now."

Qiao Shaoting didn't come for lunch, but Fang Liyuan did.

She noticed that Old Mrs. Qiao was indifferent to her now, so she tried her best to please her.

"Why isn't Yaozu here?" Old Mrs. Qiao asked Fang Liyuan.

Fang Liyuan answered with a smile, "Yaozu doesn't want to have lunch now. I'll enjoy the meal with you first. Then I'll go to accompany him."

Old Mrs. Qiao nodded and thought of something else.

She had called Waston before. He said that Qin Yu was too sad to forgive Qiao Shaoting.

It was probably not just because of Qiao Shaoting.

Old Mrs. Qiao didn't forget how she treated Qin Yu when she lived in Qiao Palace.

She did do something to make Qin Yu sad.

"Old Mrs. Qiao, taste the cabbage. It's delicious." Fang Liyuan offered to pick up some cabbages for Old Mrs. Qiao.

Old Mrs. Qiao didn't eat anything but looked at Fang Liyuan thoughtfully.

Fang Liyuan was confused.

Being stared at by Old Mrs. Qiao, she got goosebumps all over. She forced a smile and said, "Old Mrs. Qiao, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Liyuan, I have something to tell you," Old Mrs. Qiao said.
