His actions were despicable.
"What exactly do you have to show me?"
Qiao Qiao stared at He Shaochen's back and asked suspiciously.
He Shaochen's lips curled. He turned around and said to Qiao Qiao, "You'll know when you get there. I think you'll be very interested in this."
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and said nonchalantly, "Why are you being so mysterious? I still have a lot of things to do. Hurry up."
She still had three meetings to attend today and a speech event after that. At night, she still had to hire a professional tutor to tutor her on royal etiquette. She would be busy from start to finish.
He Shaochen brought her to his office and picked up a document from the table. He waved it in front of Qiao Qiao's eyes and said, "Take a look at this first."
"What is this?"
Qiao Qiao took it and flipped it open.
After flipping through a few pages, her expression turned ugly. She angrily threw the document on the floor and looked at He Shaochen with displeasure. "He Shaochen, what is the meaning of this?"
He Shaochen raised his brows and sneered. "Darling, don't tell me you can't read? It's written clearly on there. "
Qiao Qiao clenched her hands into fists. She suppressed the anger in her heart and said, "He Shaochen, I know you don't get along with Adam, but you don't have to target him like this. You even have to weave such a lie to deceive me!"
He actually said that Adam's current identity was fake. Not only him, but Eve's identity was also fake. They weren't siblings at all, but members of the same mysterious organization. What a joke. How could she believe such a lie!
"This is the truth!"
"You're the one who planned this, aren't you?" Qiao Qiao sneered. Her attitude suddenly became cold. Her face was terrifyingly gloomy and her amber eyes emitted a bone-chilling light. "He Shaochen, I can't control your thoughts. It's fine if you hate Adam, but please don't use such despicable means to slander him!"
"You mean despicable?" The smile on He Shaochen's face disappeared.
He reached out and pinched Qiao Qiao's chin. His eyes were as scary as a demon's. "Darling, do you know who you're talking to?"
Qiao Qiao slapped He Shaochen's hand away and took a few steps back. She said in disgust..... If you continue to treat Adam with such enmity, I believe that I will not be able to continue staying in this place. Please remember this! "
. With that, she turned to leave.
But before she could take a few steps, He Shaochen grabbed her back. The expression on his face became more and more terrible, and his voice seemed to freeze her. "Joe Qiao, you don't hesitate to fall out with me because of that man? Even if I cooperate with Ravel? "
"It doesn't matter!"
Joe Qiao's voice was extremely cold.
She said coldly, "It doesn't matter who you want to cooperate with. I, Lilith Lampedite Charlie, am not afraid. But please don't sow discord, because it's very despicable. No matter what you do, I won't believe it."
With that, Qiao Qiao shook off He Shaochen's hand and was about to go out.
He Shaochen's voice came from behind when she just walked to the door. "Joe Qiao, you're a fool. Why do you believe that man unconditionally? Don't you think it's strange? You don't even trust your husband because of that man. How stupid are you? "
Qiaoqiao's hands were tightly clenched into fists. She came back to her senses, raised her chin, and sneered. "Trust is mutual. At the very least, Adam has never done anything to hurt me. Instead, as my husband, you have hurt me time and time again. If it were you, who would you choose to trust?"
He Shaochen was speechless.
"Mr. He, if you still want us to maintain a good relationship in the future, please don't do anything to Adam. Otherwise, I don't know what I'll do!"
Qiao Qiao disappeared around the corner after she finished speaking.
He Shaochen kicked the wall fiercely. When he retracted his foot, a deep dent appeared in the poor wall.
After Qiao Qiao left, Qin Dong walked in and said, "He Shaochen, does Young Madam not believe the evidence you gave her?"
He Shaochen did not say anything, but Qin Dong knew the answer from his expression.
He lowered his head and looked at the investigation results that had been thrown aside. He felt that it was unfair for He Shaochen and said angrily, "Young Madam really can't tell right from wrong. The truth is right in front of her eyes, but she still doesn't believe Young Master's words. He Shaochen, no matter what we do, she won't appreciate it!"
He Shaochen looked through the huge floor-to-ceiling window and watched Qiao Qiao leave with Adam, who had been waiting for a long time. He clenched his fists and said coldly, "I finally understand why that man is so fearless. No matter what we say, Qiao Qiao won't believe us. He must have hinted at something to Joe Qiao."
As long as it had something to do with Adam, she would trust him unconditionally and without any principles. She would never doubt him.
This was the only reason that could explain Qiao Qiao's abnormal behavior.
After hearing this, Qin Dong was a little puzzled. "Hypnosis can even do this? If the hypnosis is not lifted, then won't Young Madam continue to reject Young Master? "
After all, as long as Adam really wanted to instigate, Qiao Qiao could become He Shaochen's enemy at any time.
Qin Dong's words deeply provoked He Shaochen. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Ha, what an amazing hypnotist, to be able to do this!"

In the car.
After the argument with He Shaochen, Qiao Qiao was a little tired.
Qiao Qiao tilted her head and looked at the passing scenery outside the car window. She recalled what He Shaochen had said just now.
Is Adam really just a fake identity?
Then why did he want to get close to me?
Speaking of which, Adam's identity was indeed mysterious. He was just the son of a declining aristocrat. At such a young age, he was able to gain control of such a powerful organization like the Elders' Home. He even established his own network in just a few years. It was unbelievable.
Could it be as He Shaochen had said, that there was a hidden force behind him that was secretly manipulating everything?
Was Adam not trustworthy?
As soon as this thought appeared, her mind went blank.
A voice began to echo slowly.
"Adam is the only trustworthy person. Everyone else is an enemy."
"Adam is the only trustworthy person …"
Qiao Qiao could not help but recite it.
Sitting opposite her, Adam heard Qiao Qiao's muttering and could not help but be stunned. He looked up at Qiao Qiao and asked, "Lilith, what's wrong?"
Only Adam could be trusted.
Anyone who tried to sow discord between her and Adam was an enemy.
Enemy!
"Ugh …"
Qiao Qiao's head began to hurt again. She pressed her head and spoke faster and faster, "Only Adam can be trusted. Only Adam can be trusted. Only Adam can be trusted …"
When Adam heard Qiao Qiao's words, his expression changed.
His dark red eyes flashed with a strange color. Was this girl finally beginning to suspect him?
That was why the hint in his mind was triggered.
Adam sat beside Qiao Qiao and gently stroked her head. He said softly, "Lilith, calm down."
"Adam, Adam …"
Qiao Qiao tightly held his sleeve and whispered, "You are the only person I can trust …"
"Yes, I am the only person you can trust. Only I will never hurt you." Adam's expression was extremely calm.
"Only you can trust …" Qiao Qiao repeated. Her eyes were a little sad and her tone was pleading. "So, only you can never betray me. Adam, please, don't let me down!"
She vaguely knew that Adam was hiding something from her.
However, she could not help but trust him completely.
Contradiction.
It was such a strange contradiction again.
It was the same when she was with He Shaochen. She clearly wanted to get close to him, but she also repelled him.
It was the same. It was a contradiction.
Moreover, once such a conflict arose, her head would hurt terribly.
Then her behavior would be dominated by the voice in her head.
Why was it like this?
Was she sick?
Seeing Qiao Qiao in so much pain, Adam couldn't bear it. He covered Qiao Qiao's eyes with his hand and said very slowly, "Lilith, sleep for a while. You are too tired. Sleep, sleep."
Hearing this voice, Qiao Qiao calmed down a lot.
Gradually, she fell asleep.
