Chapter 753: Chapter 783: Happiness Is Fought For
Of course, many things in this life had also been beyond her expectations.
Qin Jiao had also heard about her uncle and Aunt Jiang, and she was very happy for them.
Perhaps fate could be unfair at times, but life was long. Whether one ended up happy or not was, for the most part, a matter of personal choice.
As long as you worked hard, you had a chance to fight for your own happiness.
Take Qin Jiao herself, for example. In her past life, her marriage to Shen Yi had been a complete mess. The two of them had tormented each other, and their daily life wasn’t truly living—it was an ordeal.
After her rebirth, Qin Jiao had initially wanted to avoid Shen Yi at all costs. ’I hated him, of course, but I also hated my weak and cowardly self from my past life. For all sorts of reasons, I just wanted to get away and not repeat the same mistakes.’
But later, when she truly opened her heart to Shen Yi and let go of all her grudges, Qin Jiao knew better than anyone how difficult that process had been.
To be honest, Qin Jiao really admired Aunt Jiang. It must have been incredibly difficult for her to take this step as well.
Fortunately, her uncle, Qin Jiqun, had responded in kind.
She hoped that in the days to come, the two of them could walk hand in hand and live a good life together.
However, Qin Jiao was a little worried about how Qin Tao would feel about his father remarrying.
Qin Jiao asked Jiang Xiaoyue, "Does Aunt Jiang really not mind about Xiao Tao?"
Jiang Xiaoyue replied, "My mom said that Xiao Tao isn’t a bad kid by nature. He might not have developed good habits growing up, but the killing later on was actually an accident. If Feng Lan hadn’t brought him to that family back then, it never would have happened."
"Of course, my mom also said that the child has to agree to this. When you’re forming a blended family and there are children involved, you have to get their consent, and Xiao Tao is not a little kid anymore. So, my mom said that when they find the time, she and Uncle Qin San will go to the prison to see Xiao Tao together."
Qin Jiao was truly impressed with Aunt Jiang. ’She thinks of everything.’
She seemed so gentle, but at times she was incredibly tough and resilient.
It was exactly this kind of woman who could face so many hardships and raise Xiao Yue all by herself.
In the last life, Xiao Yue’s life had been difficult, and by extension, Jiang Ling’s probably hadn’t been easy either.
Qin Jiao hoped that in this life, both mother and daughter could be healthy and safe.
Before long, a call came from the organizers of the fashion exhibition. It was Manager Li again. He said that after much difficulty, he had finally managed to secure a few more slots for Jiu Yi.
Just as Qin Jiao had guessed, it was now five outfits for the show.
In addition, each clothing company would have its own exhibition booth where they could display more outfits on plastic mannequins, so it didn’t really mean they had to make extra clothes.
The two exchanged some pleasantries, both seeming very satisfied and appearing to have a pleasant conversation. Right before hanging up, Qin Jiao asked with a smile, "Manager Li, how many outfits does Jinyi get to show this time?"
Manager Li didn’t say anything.
Qin Jiao said, "I know it has nothing to do with you. I just want to know the number. I won’t go make trouble for them."
"Eight outfits."
"Oh, alright. Thank you. I’ll see you on the day of the exhibition."
After hanging up, Qin Jiao narrowed her eyes. The sunlight refracting through the glass window was a bit dazzling.
’It seems the big shot behind Lin Nian is quite powerful, to be able to get so many exhibition slots for a new company.’
’To make a bolder guess... perhaps that big shot, or someone very close to them, will appear at this exhibition?’
Qin Jiao immediately went back to look over the exhibition materials. She was very familiar with most of the people in the industry.
She marked down the unfamiliar names on the list to investigate their backgrounds.
