Chapter 125: Relationships are Complicated.
Xia Qimo didn't pay attention to the information at first, but Ding Ning was worried that it was a matter of work, so let him take a look first.
Xia Qimo let go of Ding Ning and took out his mobile phone to take a look.
"What's the matter?" asked Ding Ning.
Shang Nan said that Ms. Yu Shiqin was here. Xia Qimo's eyes fell on the office door, and there seemed to be footsteps outside.
Ding Ning got up from the chair when he heard this, and asked anxiously, "What should I do, do I want to hide?"
"Why hide. Xia Qimo looked calm, "It's time for the noon break, it's normal for you to come up and chat with me." ”
"It's not normal at all, at least in your mother's eyes. ”
The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, Ding Ning glanced at the office, and then quickly rushed into the room and closed the door.
At the same time, the office door opened, and Yu Shiqin's smiling face appeared in the doorway.
"Ambiguous!"
Xia Qimo was still half-leaning on the desk, holding a glass of water and turning his head to look at the door.
"Why are you here?" the tone was not very enthusiastic, and he took a leisurely sip of water after asking.
Yu Shiqin walked up to Xia Qimo with a smile and asked, "Don't you take a break at noon?"
Xia Qimo took another sip of water, and looked at his mother lightly, and that look seemed to be saying how I can rest when you come here.
"I won't delay you for long. Yu Shiqin found a place to sit down, and then looked around, she saw that the cup that Ding Ning had just drunk was placed next to Xia Qimo.
"Has anyone been here?" she asked.
At this time, Shang Nan came in with a cup of coffee, and hurriedly explained when he heard Yu Shiqin ask, "The boss was meeting guests just now, and it was the guest I sent out downstairs, Miss Ambella." ”
"Ambella?" Yu Shiqin searched for the name in her memory, and she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Xia Qimo with surprise, "It's the daughter of the An family, right?"
Xia Qimo nodded, "Yes." ”
As he spoke, he stood up and sat down on the couch, glancing over the middle door.
The door opened a crack, Ding Ning's eyes peeked through the crack, and he shook his head and smiled.
"Why did she come to you?" Yu Shiqin was very interested in this matter.
"Business matters. Xia Qimo didn't want to say too much.
And Ambella didn't look for him for business matters, as for what, Xia Qimo didn't want to reveal it to Yu Shiqin.
But Yu Shiqin didn't want to miss this topic, she asked Xia Qimo, "What business does this little girl from the An family have to ask you to invest in her project?"
"It's not about investing in me, it's about marketing her new jewelry. ”
"Oh, I see. Yu Shiqin thought for a while, "The little girl from the An family seems to have a jewelry brand, and she is quite capable." ”
Xia Qimo laughed, "Mom, do you know this Ambella?"
"I've heard people talk about it, otherwise how would I know she has a jewelry brand!"
"And how do you know she's capable?"
"A girl created a brand in the imperial capital at a young age, can't you do it?"
"Then do you know that An Jia has invested tens of millions of dollars in the early stage to create a brand for this Miss An, and there has not been a penny of profit so far. I took a look at the jewelry she designed, and how to say that it is like a child's house, and it is okay to wear it for Barbie. ”
"So ......"
"So this Miss An is just a loser, not capable. ”
But she's also a brand founder. ”
"Your requirements for entrepreneurship are really low, to be honest, I don't like those young people who take the family's money and toss blindly, whether it is to do things or start a business, you must be down-to-earth, I think Ding Ning is very good, first go to the imperial capital for internship, and then plan the next way to go, step by step is not good to be ambitious. ”
"What did you say about her? ”
"Because I think she's a lot like me, I admire her. ”
"Can she compare to Miss An?"
"What you said is very true, Ding Ning really can't be compared with Miss An," Xia Qimo put down the teacup and said very seriously, "Ding Ning is independent, Miss An is pampered, she can't even compare to one-tenth of Ding Ning, and it is really inappropriate to compare Ding Ning with her." ”
Yu Shiqin, "......" Did she say that Ambera is not as good as Ding Ning?
Xia Qimo continued, "Mom, the next time you meet Uncle Ding, don't say that I compare Ding Ning with others, I'm afraid that Uncle Ding will be unhappy." ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Yu Shiqin very sincerely, as if he was really afraid that his discussion behind his back would be spread.
Xia Qimo's attitude made Yu Shiqin not very happy, "You are plucking Ding Ning, what do they not like?"
"......" Xia Qimo smiled and said nothing.
The two of them sat and drank tea.
Xia Qimo asked Yu Shiqin, "Mom, should you come here today just to chat with me?"
"Of course not. Only then did Yu Shiqin remember what was going on.
"On the 25th of this month, the old man of the Shao family will celebrate his seventieth birthday, do you know this?"
"Yes. ”
"You must go when the time comes. ”
"That's it?"
"Uh......"
"It's just a phone call to say this, you don't have to make a trip yourself. ”
"I was afraid that you wouldn't go, so I came here, you have now taken over the family's business, and walking around with these famous families more will also help our Xia family's career. ”
Xia Qimo smiled, he looked at Yu Shiqin, "Mom, you haven't figured out what kind of business our Xia family is doing until now, investment is that we take money to some people who need money to invest in their projects, and we get benefits from it, why did Old Man Shao invite us for his seventieth birthday, not because Dad has a good relationship with the old man but because we have funds in our hands." ”
"You mean that if you go or not, they won't ignore our Xia family?"
Xia Qimo nodded.
"Are you going then?"
"Of course I went, I only went to celebrate my birthday because of my relationship with Shao Qian, not business. Xia Qimo hoped that Yu Shiqin would understand.
He values feelings rather than Vanity Fair.
Yu Shiqin didn't understand anything about business at all, and she didn't come to Xia Qimo to talk about business matters.
"That Qimo, if you go that day, shouldn't you bring a female companion over, Qin ......" Yu Shiqin and Qin Yuna hadn't finished the three words, and Xia Qimo snatched the words.
"Ding Ning will go with us. ”
"Ding Ning, what is she going to do?"
"Of course, it is to pay a birthday to Master Shao, she is Shao Qian's friend, and Shao Qian invited her. ”
"How could Shao Qian invite her, and he doesn't know her?"
"How do you know they don't know each other?" Xia Qimo asked solemnly.
"Ding Ning has not been in the emperor for a long time, and how can her circle intersect with Shao Qian?"
"There are so many wonderful things in this world, maybe they know it through someone. "For example, he Xia Qimo.
"Could it be that Qihao introduced them to each other?" Yu Shiqin began to answer her doubts, Xia Qihao had a good relationship with Ding Ning before, and asked her to deal with various things during the competition.
Yu Shiqin couldn't care if she wanted to think like this, Xia Qimo couldn't do it, he smiled and continued to drink tea.
Yu Shiqin began to sneer after solving her doubts, "I didn't expect that Song Wenqing's daughter would be quite good at doing things, and as soon as she arrived in the imperial capital, she would use all kinds of connections to make friends with people in high society." ”
Xia Qimo immediately said, "Making friends doesn't mean that you can make friends if you want to, but also depends on whether you have similar interests and whether the other party is worth befriending." Shao Qian regarded Ding Ning as a friend, which showed that there was something in Ding Ning that attracted him. ”
"What would be there in a small place that attracts people?"
"Sincere, kind, beautiful. ”
Yu Shiqin was a little nervous, because she looked longing when she saw Xia Qimo say this.
"Qimo, why are you praising her again?"
"I'm not boasting, I'm telling the truth. ”
"Are you going to ......?"
"Mom, stop!" Xia Qimo hurriedly made a stop gesture, "Don't encourage me to chase Ding Ning." ”
"Mom didn't mean that. She really didn't mean that, on the contrary, she was worried that Xia Qimo would like Ding Ning again.
"You'd better not have that meaning, two days ago you went to City A, Uncle Ding and Aunt Song came over, we had a meal, and Aunt Song didn't seem to like Ding Ning marrying into a family like ours at that time. ”
"What's the matter, she Song Wenqing still doesn't look down on us?"
"It's not that I look down on us, it's that I don't like to let Ding Ning marry into a family with too much money, Aunt Song said that the right family should be right, but this family is talking about the values and outlook on life of the two families, not who has money and who doesn't, and it's too vulgar to measure whether two people can be together with money. ”
This is said only by people who have no money. ”
Xia Qimo smiled, "I knew you would say that, that's why Aunt Song looked down on our family, because your words made people feel that our family looked down on the poor a little bit, and had no cultivation and quality." ”
Yu Shiqin's face couldn't hold it, she could only hold her arms and say a word, which was really funny.
"I just don't like Ding Ning's kid!"
Xia Qimo glanced at the direction of the middle of his eyes, then looked back at Yu Shiqin again, and he put the teacup heavily on the coffee table.
"It seems that I am even less qualified to like Ding Ning. He said, "Aunt Song also said that the person Ding Ning is going to marry in the future not only must he love her, but his family must also accept her, otherwise it is better not to marry if she marries and is angry." ”
"What do you want to do with this qualification?"
"Because so far I have only rejected Ding Ning, other women ......" he shook his head.
Yu Shiqin hurriedly said, "Qimo, you reject it because you don't know other people. ”
"If you understand it, you can know if you like it or not?"
"Of course. ”
"Then do you know Ding Ning?"
"What do I need to know about her?"
"You don't understand why she said she didn't like her so surely?"
"I ......"
"It's all the same, so don't convince me. But I want to advise you, Ding Ning is Uncle Ding's daughter, and your dislike is very inappropriate. And I don't know why you don't like Ding Ning, is it because I have shown that I like her before?"
Yu Shiqin didn't know what to say.
Xia Qimo smiled slightly, "It seems that I guessed correctly! Mom, you make me very embarrassed by this, fortunately, I am not interested in any woman now, if I am interested, I don't know how you will deal with those women I like." ”
This time, Yu Shiqin opened her mouth to refute.
Xia Qimo didn't give her a chance to speak, "Don't say let me find a woman you like, I don't believe in your vision." ”
Xia Qimo said this, and suddenly asked Yu Shiqin, "How much do you know about Qin Yuna?"
"Nana's tutor is good and dignified. ”
"Did you know she had an abortion two years ago?"
"Ahh
She'd never heard anyone talk about it.
Xia Qimo smiled again, "Mom, did you investigate before you introduced her to me?"
"I thought she was the daughter of the Qin family......"
"Oh, it turns out that you haven't done an investigation, just because she is the daughter of the Qin family, are you giving me a girlfriend or finding a decent daughter-in-law for you?"
"Mom, you're not doing it for my good, it's just for your good, for your decency. It's a pity......" Xia Qimo sneered, "Your decency almost made me a joke, and now you still want me to marry Qin Yuna?"
Qin Yuna still forgot it. Yu Shiqin lowered her head in some shame.
Xia Qimo tilted his head to look at his mother, and asked again, "What's the matter, haven't you always been very optimistic about her, and think that she is the best choice for your daughter-in-law." ”
"I didn't know about these things. ”
"Look, likes and dislikes are so superficial!" Xia Qimo spread his hands helplessly, "You wanted her to be my girlfriend a minute ago, and you didn't think so a minute later, so why don't you like Ding Ning, and you don't know her, just because the Ding family is not rich enough?"
"Qimo, that's not what I meant!"
"You have always meant this," Xia Qimo said slowly, "I heard Qihao say that Ding Ning went to our house to play before, and you turned around and said that people want to climb the high branch of our Xia family, the reason why you don't like Ding Ning is very simple, she can't meet the decency you want, but your decency is only yours, what does it have to do with Ding Ning, she didn't say that she wanted to marry me." ”
"What if?"
"If you want to marry me, the decision is mine and not yours, do you understand?"
"Ambiguous!"
Xia Qimo raised his hand, "Mom, in fact, you should thank Ding Ning, thank her for not thinking about me unkindly, otherwise I might not want to call you this mother." ”
"How do you know she doesn't have thoughts about you?"
Because when Aunt Song was expressing her opinion, Ding Ning also expressed her opinion. ”
"What's the point of view?"
"She's going to be someone who no one else can climb. ”
"Just her?"
"Just her. ”
"Really good at big talk. ”
"I don't know if it's a big deal, anyway, Shao Qian took the initiative to send her an invitation, and he gave it by himself, and it seems that our family sent it, right?"
"What does this mean?"
"It shows that in Shao Qian's eyes, she is more important than our Xia family. ”
Yu Shiqin frowned, "Is that Shao Qian trying to chase her?" ”
"Who knows, I'm not Shao Qian. ”
Yu Shiqin stopped talking, she felt that this was the case nine times out of ten.
Ding Ning's appearance is good-looking, and it is not impossible to be liked by Shao Qian.
If this Ding Ning really marries the Shao family, she is the granddaughter-in-law of the first family in the imperial capital.
I don't know why Yu Shiqin felt strange when she heard the news, she could even see Song Wenqing's appearance in front of her in the future.
What she wanted by all means, Song Wenqing got it so easily, and she was unhappy.
Yu Shiqin set her eyes on Xia Qimo, hoping that he could be like Ding Ning, but she didn't expect that before she could speak, Xia Qimo yawned with a sleepy look.
"Mom, if you don't go back in advance, I have a habit of taking a lunch break, and I'm so sleepy now!"
Yu Shiqin can also go back.
Ding Ning saw that Yu Shiqin was gone, and hurriedly dodged out of the room, she was hiding in the room just now, but she heard it, and Xia Qimo was rhythmic again.
But all of his rhythms were directed towards her.
tepidly made Yu Shiqin speechless.
"Brother Qimo, thank you!" she walked over to him and gently took his arm.
Xia Qimo turned to look at her sideways, smiled and pinched her nose.
"In the future, Ms. Yu Shiqin will definitely envy your mother. He said.
Ding Ning smiled, she understood what Xia Qimo was referring to.
"So I still have to cooperate, pretending to have a relationship with Brother Shao Qian?" she said with a smile on her head.
Xia Qimo didn't smile, he looked at Ding Ning and asked, "Do you know why I said that Shao Qian wanted to chase you?"
"Why?"
"Because there is a person who likes Shao Qian. ”
"Who?"
"My grandfather and his ex-wife had a total of three children, two boys and one girl, and the woman who likes Shao Qian is the eldest daughter of the eldest son, named Yu Fei. ”
Yu Shiqin's half-brother, that is, Xia Qimo's uncle, his daughter......
"Your cousin?" Oh my God, the real cousin has come out.
Xia Qimo shook his head, "It's not my cousin, it's my cousin, she's a year older than me." ”
"Have you seen this Yufei?"
Xia Qimo shook his head again.
Ding Ning thought about it, from Yu Fei's standpoint, her grandfather had an affair and gave birth to a child outside, although this person was her aunt, she would not have anything to do with it.
"Brother Qimo, has your family never had contact with some of your grandfather's other family members?"
"I've always been in City A, so I've never met them, but I don't know if my mom met them or not. Although the old man later married my grandmother, the family's property was still left to the children of his ex-wife, so there was no conflict between the two families. ”
is also said that the old man's ex-wife has passed away for so many years, and only the property is not given to the stepmother, but they can be in peace.
It seems that only money has nothing to say.
"Then if you, Cousin Yufei, marry Shao Qian, Shao Qian will be your cousin-in-law in the future, so that the Shao family, one of the four major families, will finally have a connection with your family, and your mother will definitely be very happy. Ding Ning suddenly realized a problem when he said this.
"No, your mother shouldn't be happy, because you just told her that Shao Qian wants to chase me, so won't I become a bad person who ruined Shao Qian's marriage with your cousin?"
So Yu Shiqin will hate her even more.
Unexpectedly, Xia Qimo smiled.
"You, you don't know human nature too much, forty years ago my grandfather's ex-wife forced my grandmother out of the imperial capital, for my mother those people are the culprits who made her leave her homeland, she doesn't like that family. ”
"So ......"
"So she'll be glad you're here on the 25th, and I can even see her happily introducing you to others. ”
Xia Qimo looked at Ding Ning with a smile, "You will feel her unprecedented enthusiasm!"
