Did Uncle Qiao want to ask where Qiao Nan was now? Unfortunately, he had not dared to do so. It was probably because of the situation the Qiao family was in that Uncle Qiao did not have the guts to ask about Qiao Nan's whereabouts.

Qiao Nan did not know that Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin had gotten her address from Chen Jun and were rushing to find her with some devious plans up their sleeves. By the time Qiao Nan received news of it, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin had already been scared away by the fierce landlord.

The landlord was surprised when she talked to her son about this. "Xiao Qiao looks like a nice person to me. She has a good temper and she never raises her voice. She looks so gentle. How could a person like that have such an unreasonable mother and sister? That's not right. Xiao Qiao doesn't look like them either. Were they scammers?"

The landlord thought that this was a rather laughable situation. In her years of experience, she had never once seen people like that. She had already explained that Xiao Qiao had moved away and that she had no idea about Xiao Qiao's whereabouts. She was indeed a landlord, but she could only look after Xiao Qiao while she was a tenant. It was unreasonable to expect her to know where her tenant had moved to and even more so ridiculous to demand that she be responsible for finding Miss Qiao for them.

This made no sense at all.

She was merely a landlord. Why should she have to do that?

Upon learning that Qiao Nan's biological mother and sister had come, the landlord had thought of getting them to know them. Xiao Qiao had already found a partner in the chief's son. As long as she got along well with Xiao Qiao, the chief would probably treat her son better in the future. She had to get along well with Qiao Nan, but she had clearly just messed up her relationship with Qiao Nan's family!

No matter how great the landlord's plan was, she could not prepare for what Ding Jiayi had in mind.

Upon learning that Chen Jun had feelings for Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi was sure that Qiao Nan was still in that house. She shouted for someone to open the door, but no one came. This made Ding Jiayi think back to the time when she had gone to Qiao Nan's old apartment to look for her. At that time, Qiao Nan had secretly terminated her lease without letting her know, causing her to stand at the door foolishly for half a day.

The infuriated Ding Jiayi felt that Qiao Nan was deliberately hiding from her. She was clearly at home but was simply trying to avoid her. Even that experience in the past was not enough for Ding Jiayi to learn anything from it.

It was just that afternoon that she had found out that Qiao Dongliang had handed the property deed of the courtyard over to Qiao Nan. Ding Jiayi had been holding her anger in all this while. Now, she was truly enraged. As such, she could not care less whether Qiao Nan had bought this apartment or whether she had simply rented it. Without a second thought, she started kicking the door.

Anyone would care about their own house. Besides, one should not be so unreasonable. As soon as the landlord saw Ding Jiayi kicking her door, she immediately pulled Ding Jiayi aside roughly.

Three women make a market, not to mention how both Ding Jiayi and the landlord were strong as bulls. Just the two of them alone would be able to make a market. There was no need for a third.

The landlord was infuriated. Clearly, Ding Jiayi was not looking for her daughter out of kinship. The landlord was not foolish either, and after tugging on Ding Jiayi a few times, she simply said, "Oh, you're Xiao Qiao's mother? During the new year period, I saw that Xiao Qiao was alone and she didn't even receive any calls. I thought that all of Xiao Qiao's family was dead. I didn't know that they are still alive. I guess I can finally understand why someone with a family like Xiao Qiao would rather escape to a rural and small town like Qingshui Town. After all, Qingshui Town doesn't have that many evil and vicious people around. I'm warning you that this is my house, and this is my door. Xiao Qiao did rent an apartment here in the past, but she moved away a month ago."

Looking at the footprints on her door, the landlord was upset. "You've destroyed someone else's property by kicking on it. It's illegal. Thankfully for you, I'm magnanimous. Since the door isn't spoiled, I won't ask you to compensate me for it, but you'd better wipe off all of your footprints from the door. If you don't, I'll make sure the police come to help me out!"

"She moved away? Where did she move to?" Qiao Zijin had the biggest reaction. She had thought that she had finally found Qiao Nan. Why had she suddenly moved away again? Was this not too much of a coincidence? "My mom might not have a good temper, but she's Qiao Nan's biological mother, after all, and I'm Qiao Nan's biological sister. My mom's only angry because Qiao Nan was at fault. My mom simply wants to teach her a lesson. My mom will definitely wipe off those footprints from the door. But I hope that you can tell us where Qiao Nan is. No matter what, we're still Qiao Nan's family."

Qiao Nan was also a little evil. Which of Qiao Nan's acquaintances did not know that their mom had such a temper? Even while knowing that their mom had a foul temper, those people still dared to help Qiao Nan and had even given all the money to Qiao Nan. Qiao Zijin had reason to believe that Qiao Nan had already badmouthed the Qiao family in front of the landlord. That was why the landlord had lied to them, saying that Qiao Nan had already moved away a month ago.

Thinking about how all outsiders, including Chen Jun, were so friendly toward Qiao Nan, Qiao Zijin felt sour. Qiao Nan was so dull and introverted. Were all those people blind? Why could they not differentiate between good and bad people?

But the landlord was not Ding Jiayi and had not fallen for Qiao Zijin's tricks. The landlord had even seen through Qiao Zijin's tricks. "You can believe whatever you want. You'd better wipe those footprints off. She doesn't stay here anymore. After wiping those footprints off, you'd better scram! Otherwise, I'll call the police."

She had been too muddleheaded. Xiao Qiao had been staying here for almost half a year. Xiao Qiao was such a good person but had never mentioned having any family, much less having any contact with her family. Based on that, she should have guessed that Xiao Qiao probably had no family or that her family was not worth keeping in touch with.

Otherwise, who would be willing to uproot and move to an unfamiliar place to start a new life?

The landlord had already made her words very clear. There were other witnesses who also supported the claim that the person living in that apartment had not been around for about a month. They had wondered about it, but this scene had proved their suspicions.

Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin had rushed to Qingshui Town angrily because of their house and money. They had been rehearsing how they would lecture and punish Qiao Nan to the point of crying once they met her. But who would have known that Qiao Nan had already vanished into thin air?
