“Oh.” Qiao Nan responded with just a word and did not pursue it any further. It was just as well that Ding Jiayi had not called. It would only make her more annoyed. After all, rejecting Ding Jiayi took some effort. Thinking about Ding Jiayi’s persistence, Qiao Nan knew that just one less call from Ding Jiayi would make her life that much easier.

“Mom, it’s almost time for the three children’s tuition cla.s.s to end. I’ll pick them up.” Without trouble from her family, and with her children all obedient, Qiao Nan was in a good mood.

“All right, come back earlier. Drive safely on the way back.”

“Yes.”

Qiao Nan replied happily, driving down the familiar road to the three children’s tuition cla.s.s. “h.e.l.lo, teacher, you’ve worked hard!”

“h.e.l.lo.” When the three children’s teacher saw Qiao Nan, she was very respectful. There was no choice. After the saga with Qiao Zijin, whether it was the three children’s teachers in school or their weekend tuition teachers, everyone knew Qiao Nan and that the mother of their three students was their country’s minister of foreign affairs. Even if she was no longer a minister, she was still a national cadre and a very impressive woman!

As a woman herself, seeing such a strong woman in a political position, the three children’s teacher could not help but respect Qiao Nan. “You’re picking the children up personally? You’re working so hard!” She had such a high status, but she was still picking her children up personally. That was a rare sight! It was clear that this female minister placed great importance on her family.

She would never believe anyone who said that Minister Qiao disregarded her family.

“It’s not hard. Isn’t it our responsibility as parents?” Qiao Nan’s hands were already held by the three children by her side. “We’ll take our leave.”

The three children immediately chimed in. “Goodbye, miss.”

“Goodbye, miss.” After bidding farewell, Qiao Nan and the three children headed downstairs to their car.

The three children’s teacher watched them from afar. “They’ve been taught so well. If it had not been for the news, I wouldn’t have known that my three students came from such a privileged background.” She could not even tell that these three children had chiefs as their great-grandfather, grandfather, and father, and a mother who was the minister of foreign affairs.

The three children were so obedient that they could be model children. The children who lived next door to her were a hundred times harder to discipline that these triplets.

“Mom, has everything been settled?” Because he could sense that the dark clouds around his mother had dissipated, Da Bao’s mood was lifted as well. He had worried that this matter would have a negative impact on his mother’s work. Thankfully, there was still his grandpa and dad at home. Moreover, his mom had not done a single of these bad things she was being accused of.

“Of course! Mom was being wrongly maligned!” Er Bao patted Qiao Nan’s back. His anger exceeded that of Qiao Nan’s. “Thankfully, Mom was smart and was prepared. Otherwise, Mom would never have been able to clear her name this time. Mom, you’re awesome! I’ll have to learn from you in the future!”

Er Bao really wanted to say that he had been astounded when his mom produced this recording. He almost suspected that his mom could tell the future. Otherwise, how could she have known to record that day’s conversation?

But because of this incident, Er Bao had truly experienced how ‘amazing’ that legendary ‘elder auntie’ was. She was no longer a child, but she had so calmly demanded his mom to support and raise her, and her demands had even been so outrageous! Er Bao really wanted to meet Qiao Zijin and see for himself how thick Qiao Zijin’s skin was. Could it be that Qiao Zijin’s face had no meat at all but was made entirely out of skin?

Otherwise, how could his ‘elder auntie’ even spout such ridiculous words? He would never be able to understand that.

Er Bao wanted to lie down and shout that Qiao Zijin was simply unbelievable!

As for the other legendary grandma, Er Bao could not help but sigh. After seeing the power of his ‘elder auntie’, he was not at all curious about his legendary grandma’s temper. He pitied his mom for growing up in such an environment.

If either Da Bao or San Bao had such a temper, he would definitely punch them so much so that they would not even be able to recognize their mother. He did not believe that violence would not teach them a lesson.

“Mom has always been smart. You’re a little slow if you only realized that today.” San Bao purposely retorted Er Bao to cajole Qiao Nan. “Mom, grandma said that I’ve grown to resemble you even more. Dad said so too. I’m as pretty as Mom. That’s great!” San Bao stroked her small face narcissistically. Sigh, there had been a few more boys who had confessed to her lately.

Unfortunately, all these people were all too childish. They could not even compare to Da Bao or Er Bao, much less her dad. She would never accept these confessions. She liked tall, handsome, and mature men.

Upon hearing San Bao’s words, Da Bao and Er Bao had the same reaction. As pretty? It was obvious that their mom was much prettier. San Bao had not even blossomed. At the very most, she was just a bud. How was she pretty? To say that San Bao was as pretty as their mom? That person must have been blind! Even if their dad had been the one to say it, all they could say was that their dad did not open his eyes wide when saying that.

Qiao Nan took a glance in the rearview mirror and laughed at the girl’s narcissism. “You’re still young. When you grow older, I’ll be old and you’ll be much prettier than me then.” Qiao Nan had never thought of comparing her beauty with her daughter’s.

“Mom!” Da Bao’s eyes widened. “Mom! Stop! Stop!”

The moment Da Bao screamed, Qiao Nan had already seen what Da Bao saw and she immediately stepped on the clutch and the brake simultaneously. At the same time, she continuously honked the horn, signaling for the people on the road to get out of the way.

But this person had suddenly come out of nowhere and had been too close to the car. As such, Qiao Nan’s expression changed, finding it strange. It was as though this person had been eyeing her car and had waited for the best possible moment to jump out in front of her car. She had heard of such scams before but had never experienced it for herself.

The moment this person appeared, Qiao Nan almost thought that this would be her first experience. But looking at the distance between this person and her car, Qiao Nan thought that this could not be a scam. Perhaps, this person was trying to end his life? If this was truly a scam, why would this person appear at such a great distance away?

Even though Qiao Nan had never sped on the roads, and she was driving between thirty to forty kilometers per hour, it was inevitable that her car knocked the person down with a loud ‘bang’.

In that split second that her car hit the person, that person lifted up her head and smiled insidiously at Qiao Nan who was still in the car. It had not only frightened the children but Qiao Nan as well. “Qiao Zijin?!”
