The fake daughter of a book, the villain who was humiliated ascended the throne

"Jiaojiao, you...what's wrong with you?"

When Tao Zhixing saw this, he thought Tao Jiaojiao had suffered some injustice and felt very sorry for her.

Tao Jiaojiao cried and shook her head.

Tao Zhixing was at a loss for words.

Yu Ansheng also felt a little at a loss as to what to do.

Helplessly, he had to wink at Tao Zhiheng standing beside him and ask him to go and call Tao.

Tao Jiaojiao cried so sadly that she couldn't control herself for a long time.

Soon, Tao arrived.

"Mother..."

Tao Jiaojiao shouted.

Tao moved her lips, trying to remind Tao Jiaojiao that her mother was Lu.

But after all, she was the daughter he had loved for more than ten years, and in the end he couldn't bear it and lost her face in front of so many people.

"Come in and talk."

Tao had a cold expression on his face. After saying this, he turned and walked towards the conference room.

Tao Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, feeling a chill in her heart.

She knew that Tao really had a grudge against her.

As expected, I am not her biological daughter after all.

In this case, she would not have to feel any psychological burden in taking advantage of the Tao family.

In fact, she had already had the idea of ​​taking advantage of the Tao family, and had no psychological burden at all.

Several people went to the flower hall and sat down.

"Why did you come to my house twice?"

As soon as everyone was seated, Tao, who was at the head of the table, asked Tao Jiaojiao directly.

Mrs. Tao felt that Tao Jiaojiao came to see her twice, definitely not just to explain.

In the past, to use Shu Xin's modern words, Tao had a filter for Tao Jiaojiao, so he explained some of her behaviors for her in his heart.

However, now that she looked at things from a different perspective, she thought about it carefully and saw the clue.

Tao Jiaojiao is a person with clear goals and will not do anything without benefits.

That's why she asked directly.

She really didn't want to hear Tao Jiaojiao crying and complaining.

Tao Zhixing looked at his mother in surprise.

Yu Ansheng was also a little surprised.

Tao Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, and the tears that she had finally stopped welled up again.

"Mother, you don't call me Jiaojiao anymore?"

Tao smiled bitterly and did not respond.

Tao Zhixing wanted to speak up to defend Tao Jiaojiao, but was stopped by a look from Tao.

Tao Zhixing could see that his mother was really angry.

Tao has a cheerful and lively personality, but she is relatively gentle towards the children in the family.

She rarely appears to be so timid.

Tao Zhixing didn't dare to provoke her.

Yu Ansheng also became serious. He remembered what Tao had said to him in private before.

If you continue to have an unclear attitude, it will only chill Shu Xin's heart.

Although he didn't have the heart to do that to Tao Jiaojiao, Shuxin and Miaomiao had indeed suffered this time, and they still didn't know what the situation was.

Seeing that Tao Zhixing and Yu Ansheng didn't speak up for her, Tao Jiaojiao looked dejected.

After a long time, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

She looked up at Tao, with a smile on her face that was uglier than crying.

"Mother, whether you believe it or not, Shuxin and the others were not arrested because of me. It was that villain... He saw Shuxin's look, and saw Shuxin and Miaomiao took the initiative to talk to me, so he had evil intentions."

Tao frowned.

Tao Jiaojiao's statement is consistent with Tao Zhixing's guess.

Tao was full of doubts.

But when Xiao Beiyuan came back that day, he said that Tao Miaomiao and Shu Xin bravely followed Tao Jiaojiao's carriage in order to save Tao Jiaojiao.

As a result, the enemy counterattacked and took advantage of the opportunity to seize Shuxin and her companions' carriage.

While resisting, she was thrown off the carriage and fainted.

As to whether it was Tao Jiaojiao who harmed Shu Xin and the others, Xiao Beiyuan fainted and she had no idea.

It was Xiao Beiyuan who suspected that Tao Miaomiao was in collusion with the bad guy.

Otherwise, that group of people wouldn't have come back.

But Xiao Beiyuan is a girl from the Xiao family.

She is still sick at this time, so it is not appropriate to call her over for a confrontation.

She thought about it carefully and didn't say anything.

Tao Zhixing on the side gestured to Tao Jiaojiao to continue.

"Later, one of the criminals stopped Shuxin and her friends' carriage, and I took the opportunity to escape."

"Of course, it was my maid Linglan who helped me, but she was captured."

Tao and Yu Ansheng looked at each other, both frowning in confusion.

That day, Xiao Beiyuan came back and said that he saw the criminals taking away Tao Jiaojiao's maid. Tao Jiaojiao escaped from the carriage and met the people who came to pick her up.

As for the fact that Tao Jiaojiao gave the lily of the valley to Peng Si on her own initiative, Xiao Beiyuan was far away and did not hear it.

Seeing that they had no questions, Tao Jiaojiao guessed that the girl who ran away did not know that it was she who took the initiative to push Linglan out to replace herself.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I originally thought that I would find someone to rescue them when I got back to the city. But an epidemic broke out in the city at this time, and my father, the Marquis, and the Third Prince were too busy to help. I really had no way..."

She looked helpless, feeling both self-blaming and sad.

When talking about Shu Hu, he did not forget to change his words in time.

What she said might be true or false. Now Shuxin and the others are unknown whether they are alive or dead, so there is no way to verify whether what she said is true or false.

Although Tao still had some doubts in her heart, Yu Ansheng and Tao Zhixing both believed her.

"It's all my fault. If Miaomiao hadn't seen me, she wouldn't have chased after me out of worry about me, and Shuxin and the others wouldn't have been captured by that villain! Mom, Dad, I'm sorry."

As she spoke, she was about to kneel down and kowtow to Tao and Yu Ansheng.

She cried so sadly, with big tears rolling down her face.

"Jiaojiao, don't cry, we all believe you are innocent."

Tao Zhixing quickly spoke to comfort him.

Tao Jiaojiao looked at Tao Zhixing with gratitude.

However, she still looked at Tao and Yu Ansheng with hope, hoping that they could forgive her.

Yu Ansheng sighed.

"Stand up and talk first, don't kneel all the time."

Yu Ansheng said this, and Tao did not stop him.

He waved his hand and asked Tao Jiaojiao to stand up.

But she didn't give in.

"Shu Xin and the others are still missing. Let's talk about the truth later."

Tao looked sad.

Tao Jiaojiao froze for a moment.

She secretly hated it.

Tao actually still hoped that they would come back.

She would never let Shuxin and the others come back alive.

But I don’t know whether Liu Dongtang has succeeded. I have to find a way to contact him and ask about the situation over there.

"By the way, I remember a girl fell off the carriage that day. Is she okay?"

Tao Jiaojiao wanted to ask about Xiao Beiyuan's situation and find out what she had talked about with the Tao family.

Tao stared at her with sharp eyes.

Tao Jiaojiao felt as if her thoughts had been seen through, and she felt flustered.

Afraid that Tao would notice something, she smiled obediently.

"Mother, why are you looking at me like that? I was thinking that the young lady had suffered an undeserved disaster because of me, and I wanted to care about her situation."

Tao looked at Tao Jiaojiao and sighed in her heart.

Was Tao Jiaojiao always like this? How come she never noticed?

Tao was lost in his own thoughts, slightly dazed.

"Jiaojiao, you are kind-hearted, so it's natural for you to care about her."

"She is Xiao Beiyuan, the concubine of the Xiao family. She fell ill the day she came back and has not recovered yet."

Tao Zhixing quickly responded, not wanting Tao Jiaojiao's words to fall into obscurity.
