Qiao Xuan sighed. "I don't want to make things easy for them at all! Madame Qiao and Qiao Wei are greedy and don't want me to have a good life."
As long as Qiao Xuan was thriving, she was seen as the original sin in their eyes. They would do everything they could to ruin it.
Shao Yunduan chuckled. "Don't worry, as long as you've made up your mind, I'll support you. But… have you decided? If you want to—"
"No!" Before Shao Yunduan could finish, Qiao Xuan covered his lips and said firmly, "What do I need them for? I don't need that kind of family!"
She understood Shao Yunduan's implication. He might have thought that having her own family as a "backer" would make her appear more respectable and protect her from being looked down upon.
But the families of Officer Qiao and Madame Qiao weren't worth it.
She didn't want to keep feeling disgusted.
