Chapter 905: 20 Taels of Silver

At this moment, Qiao Zhongheng very cowardly shrunk behind his wife, while Qiao Long also didn’t dare let out a peep.

Gritting her teeth, Xu Jiao shakily bent down to pick up that bag of silver.

The moment she opened that bag and saw the piece of silver inside, her eyes immediately bulged.

“20 taels?” It was as if a string in her mind had broken, making her mind suddenly explode!

Although Qiao Mu had curled up her lips, there wasn’t a hint of a smile within her pitch-black pupils as she stared at Xu Jiao and said, “Youngest Aunt-in-Law, if back then, you had even the slightest bit of…”

Qiao Mu stuck out her pinky to make a gesture. “Conscience.”

“Then you wouldn’t have so heartlessly conspired with Wu Yanzhen to sell my younger sister to the Dou Family.”

Xu Jiao’s entire body shook uncontrollably, and her eyes were suffused with disbelief as she looked up at Qiao Mu. “H-How did you know it was 20 taels?”

It was neither more nor less. Her commission was exactly 20 taels, but how did Qiao Mu, this child, know that?

Those were events that happened eight years ago!

Even the granny didn’t know! So how would a seven-year-old Qiao Mu know??

Yet Qiao Mu merely swept Xu Jiao a chilly gaze, and as she walked closer to that prison cell step by step, she softly spoke, “Did you know? That young master of the Dou Family was a psychopath! If Younger Sis really had been sent to that hell on earth by your conspiracy, do you think she would have lived past 12 years old?”

Xu Jiao trembled all over, and when she saw Qiao Mu’s nearly mental expression, she screeched in slight horror, “Don’t come over.”

Qiao Mu halted her footsteps and gazed at this woman coldly. “I’m buying the lives of your family of three with 20 taels. You can keep the change.”

At this point, Old Sixth Qiao and Sixth Aunt Qiao raised their heads and looked at Qiao Mu with slightly contracted pupils. It seemed as if they hadn’t expected that she could be so merciless as to forsake her own uncle and aunt-in-law.

On the other hand, Qiao Ya’s pair of apathetic eyes contained a faint puzzlement as they gazed at her just like that.

“Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu!!” Xu Jiao fell into a complete panic, tightly clenching the bag of silver as she bawled in regret, “Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, Aunt-in-Law knows her mistake! Aunt-in-Law really knows her mistake! Give me another chance, okay? Or, give your cousin a chance! Your cousin was merely a small child eight years ago, so he didn’t know anything, he is innocent! Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, I beg you, don’t be so cruel!”

Innocent. Qiao Mu scoffed, turning to look back at her deeply.

If she hadn’t been reborn, her younger sister would have died next year! At that time, who would there be to give Qiao Lin another chance?

Who would there be to take pity on Qiao Lin?

Who would there be to sympathize with her, who had lost her mother, her younger sister, and her younger brother, thereby becoming a person who had lost everything. Her future was so tragic…

Don’t blame her for being heartless!

This is an age where it’s either you live or I die!

But it’s more fitting for you to be the one to die!

While trailing behind Qiao Mu, Qiao Ya and her parents were subjected to everyone else’s envious gazes as they walked out of the prison cell. They had all sorts of feelings welling up in their hearts.

When Qiao Mu walked back out under the sun, she immediately saw that person turning around and grinning at her.

At that instant, something seemed to have melted her icy heart, causing it to ease up.

Qiao Mu instantly took to her heels and ran up and into Mo Lian’s embrace.

Simultaneously, that look of hers that was requesting for a hug made Crown Prince Mo wild with joy.
