Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 138 He has gotten what he wanted.

Hearing Qiao Luo ask this, Qiao Yuanzhe shook his head and said, "Sister, I don't blame you. It was Mom who made a mistake, and she deserved to suffer for it. On the contrary, you were the one who got hurt because of it. Sister, I..."

Qiao Yuanzhe choked up and couldn't speak. After learning about his sister's childhood experiences online, he felt both sad and guilty.

He blamed himself for having such a mother, but what could he do?

Yu Huili was, after all, his mother.

The saying goes that children have to pay for their mother's debts, so he will have to repay his sister doubly in the future.

Thinking this through, he composed himself and said, "Sister, I will definitely make it up to you in the future."

He added in his mind, "I'll compensate you double."

Qiao Luo felt a mix of emotions as she listened to these words.

She was actually reluctant to recall those past events, as they were too painful. She had even been deliberately trying to forget them, because life is long, and it's not good to live in the past all the time.

If Yu Huili hadn't smeared her this time, she wouldn't have brought up these old grievances at all.

However, whatever the case, it's all in the past, and there's no need to bring it up again.

So she said to Qiao Yuanzhe, "Yuanzhe, let bygones be bygones, don't bring it up again, and think more about the future. As for your mother, I hope she can realize her mistakes this time."

Qiao Yuanzhe nodded in agreement.

Qiao Luo then ended the call. When she returned to the bedroom, Lu Tingnian was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at his phone.

Seeing that he was quite focused and hadn't even noticed her coming in, she stepped forward in confusion, "What are you looking at?"

Lu Tingnian: "I'm looking at your posts online."

"is it?"

"Well, you said, whose youth isn't filled with confusion? So, were you ever confused during your adolescence?"

Lu Tingnian asked curiously.

When Qiao Luo heard him ask that, she thought about it very seriously for a moment, "I think I have."

"Oh? What were you confused about back then?" Lu Tingnian asked curiously.

Qiao Luo thought about it seriously for a moment, then shook her head, "I can't quite remember."

After all, she spent her entire youth working a full range of part-time jobs. Even when she did have a moment of distraction, it was just a brief lapse in concentration and was insignificant compared to tuition fees and basic needs.

Lu Tingnian: "..."

He was quite disappointed that he didn't get to hear about her teenage years.

"And what about you?" Qiao Luo asked him in return.

Lu Tingnian nodded, "Of course I have."

"Really? Then what were you confused about back then?" Qiao Luo pressed on, her curiosity piqued.

This time, Lu Tingnian did not answer immediately, but thought about it carefully. He did have moments of confusion, and all those moments were spent with one person, Qiao Luo.

However, it doesn't matter now; he has already gotten what he wanted.

So he said, "I...forgot too."

Qiao Luo: "..."

She was eagerly anticipating his stories about adolescence, and had even prepared a small stool for him to sit on while he talked, but he said he forgot.

Qiao Luo strongly suspected that he was doing it on purpose, deliberately wasting her expression.

Just as she was about to confront Lu Tingnian, her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She said to Lu Tingnian, "I'll take this call first."

After saying that, she took her phone and went outside.

Lu Tingnian stared at her departing figure, sighed helplessly, and then turned his gaze to the Weibo page on his phone.

After a while, Qiao Luo finally finished her phone call and returned. Lu Tingnian was still scrolling through Weibo. She paused and said to him, "I have to go out for a bit."

Lu Tingnian was taken aback. "What happened?"

It's already so late.
