Qiao Fei wasn’t Qiao Jin’s biological mother, but she had raised her for 20 years.
She was a good mother, but Qiao Fei had a bizarre past. She’d once had an epic romance with the head of the Mu family. She’d given birth to three sons, but their legitimacy wasn’t accepted because of her inferior status. She couldn’t even acknowledge her own sons.
She left that sad place and adopted Qiao Jin.
Still, the head of the Mu family couldn’t forget her. After assuming power, he settled everything and brought Qiao Fei back.
But Mr. Mu wasn’t willing to raise a child that didn’t belong to him. He valued ??bloodline very much.
At Qiao Fei’s insistence, however, Qiao Jin was taken to the Imperial City as well.
Although she couldn’t live with Qiao Fei, Qiao Fei often visited her.
However, the well-behaved and endearing Qiao Jin she had brought up began to associate with shady people. She even got addicted to drugs!
Despite feeling shocked and angered, Qiao Fei didn’t even have the chance to cast too much blame on Qiao Jin before she received news of the girl’s attempted suicide.
For a while, she felt infuriated and enraged.
However, she didn’t know that the current Qiao Jin was no longer the same Qiao Jin who she’d known before the attempted suicide last night.
“If you hadn’t associated with those people, none of these things would have happened. Mother told you this long ago.”
Although Qiao Fei was saying this, she dared not speak too harshly.
Qiao Jin had been obedient and well-behaved since she was a child, and she was the poster child that everyone praised. Qiao Fei really couldn’t understand why Qiao Jin, who was once squeaky clean, had become addicted to drugs after spending only half a year in the imperial capital.
She knew that the fact that she couldn’t live with Qiao Jin was a blow to her, but it wasn’t as if she didn’t visit Qiao Jin often. She really couldn’t fathom it.
“Ah.” Qiao Jin suddenly sighed. “You don’t know the truth, so I don’t want to blame you.”
The Qiao Jin standing there was no longer the Qiao Jin of the past.
When Qiao Jin had attempted suicide last night, she had finally recovered her last fragment of compassionate consciousness, successfully pieced it completely together, and returned to her true self, after wandering through the chaotic world for thousands of years
She was the real Qiao Jin. The Qiao Jin of the past was only her compassionate consciousness.
Her true identity was the most powerful magic circle practitioner from ten thousand years ago, Qiao Jin.
If she hadn’t been ambushed by her enemy, she wouldn’t have had her soul’s consciousness broken into pieces, and it wouldn’t have taken ten thousand years for it to be successfully pieced together.
Instead, she was reborn into this whole new world.
These people lived in the modern world, and hers only existed in myths and legends.
Qiao Jin was indeed a good girl, but she became addicted to drugs for a reason. She was even framed.
“Can you tell me what you know?” Qiao Fei’s eyes grew red, and more tears started flowing. “I know you feel resentful towards me.”
Qiao Jin was quiet. She gazed at Qiao Fei and said earnestly, “I don’t feel resentful towards you.”
The Qiao Jin of the past hadn’t felt resentful, but now, Qiao Jin felt that no one could alleviate the emotional turmoil she felt inside, and resentment was trifling in comparison.
Qiao Fei cried more hysterically. “I knew it, you resent me!”
Qiao Jin said nothing. Why were women in modern society so frightening?
She and Qiao Fei had karma between them, so even as the most powerful magic circle practitioner seen in ten thousand years, Qiao Jin had no choice but to let Qiao Fei cry by her side. Even she couldn’t afford to mess with this sort of thing.
As for the crying, it would eventually come to a stop.
No matter how much she cried, the Qiao Jin of the past would no longer return.
From now on, she would be only the magic circle practitioner Qiao Jin.
She thought of the man she had just seen, and she felt a little pensive. Had the people of her bygone era really completely disappeared?
