Chapter 665: Deadly Wedding Dress
The light of the mobile phone could not illuminate the entire secret room, like a leopard in a tube, and Ling Chuchu's expressions became nervous, and even if it weren't for the presence of Fang Ming, Chen Ze and Ling Wei, they might not dare to enter.
"How can there be no lights?"
Zhang Shuchen's mobile phone light shone on the wall, trying to find the light turned on, but it just shone along the wall, and there was no light switch at all, which made Zhang Shuchen a little incomprehensible.
Generally speaking, the light switch will get to the wall next to the door, which is the position where the hand can touch, which is the common sense of all light switch design, but the strange thing about this secret room is that the light switch is not on the side of the door.
"There are no electric lights here. β
Fang Ming spoke, although the secret room was very dark, but with his line of sight, he could naturally see clearly, and walked directly towards it, the next moment, the dim light lit up in this secret room, and an oil lamp was lit in front of Fang Ming.
One, two, three......
There were a total of seven oil lamps in the entire secret room, which were in seven places in the secret room, and after these seven oil lamps were lit by Fang Ming, the boss of Ling Chuchu and the others with their mouths open looked at the secret room in front of them.
There were no unsavory secrets, no scary things, and no priceless treasures, but there was only one table in the whole secret room, and on this table were all kinds of scissors and threads, and not far from the table were a few pieces of cloth.
"Isn't this just a tailor's room, these things are used by tailors? β
Chen Ze had an incomprehensible look on his face, then Qiao Mao made a secret room in the study, and put these tailor things in the secret room, what did he want to do?
"What kind of reputation is Qiao Mao, why does a tailor's room have to be so mysterious. β
Ling Chuchu and the others also looked puzzled, among all the people on the scene, only Fang Ming looked at these things in the secret room, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a thoughtful look on his face.
"Ye Mei, does Qiao Mao have any psychological problems, I think you have to ask clearly, this is related to your future life. β
Zhang Shuchen looked at Ye Mei, but just as her words fell, there was a figure standing at the door of the secret room, this figure stood at the door, just blocking the light in the study, causing the brightness of the entire secret room to dim a little.
"Who?"
The change in luminosity made everyone present feel it, and they also looked at the door for the first time, but because it was the backlight, everyone couldn't see the face of this figure clearly.
"Qiao Mao?"
Ye Mei shouted softly, she naturally remembered the appearance of her fiancΓ©, although she couldn't see the face, but she could judge it from the figure.
"Hmm. A low voice of response came from the figure's mouth.
"I'm rubbing, you want to be scary, and when you come back, you don't speak, just stand at the door and say nothing. β
Chen Ze's face was dissatisfied, everyone's mood was relatively nervous, you were still standing at the door and didn't say a word, what did you want to do if you weren't scary?
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me outside? Why did you go into the secret room?"
Because he couldn't see Qiao Mao's facial expression, but from Qiao Mao's deep voice, he could also know the anger he was suppressing, obviously this secret room was discovered by Fang Ming and the others, which made him very angry in his heart.
"Qiao Mao, I don't think it's the reason why we can't enter the secret room now, or you should explain to us, why do you want to make a secret room in the study, and put so many tailoring tools in this secret room, is it possible that you still want to be a tailor?"
Ling Chuchu was dissatisfied, as Ye Mei's best friend, she naturally didn't want her best friend to marry a man with many secrets, because if a man had too many secrets, it meant that this man was somewhat perverted in his heart, which was not a good thing for her best friend's future, because living with such a man would encounter many problems.
"Isn't it okay to be a tailor?"
Qiao Mao finally moved away from the door and walked inside, but Ling Chuchu and the others were stunned by Qiao Mao's answer, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
"My Qiao family was originally a family of tailors, and I started as a tailor, as a Qiao family, is there anything wrong with learning tailoring skills?"
Qiao Mao walked up to Ye Mei and touched Ye Mei's hair, with a doting expression on his face, "The reason why I got a secret room out is actually because I don't want this matter to be exposed, after all, a man doing the work of a tailor will make people laugh at him after all." β
When he said this, Qiao Mao's expression was a little helpless, and Ye Mei's face showed a look of understanding, indeed, Qiao Mao is the president of Qiao's company, if such a man is known by outsiders that he likes to be a tailor and do needlework only for women, I am afraid that his prestige will be completely gone.
"Ye Mei, you also know the situation of our family, I was brought by my grandmother, my grandmother was a tailor at that time, and I have been exposed to these tailoring jobs since I was a child, at that time I felt that my grandmother could support the family with her craftsmanship is really great, so I also liked tailors when I was a child. β
Qiao Mao's expression was a little bitter, but this time Ling Chuchu and the others did not laugh at Qiao Mao, a person's personality and habits are indeed very easy to be affected by the environment when he was a child, Qiao Mao has been influenced by his grandmother since he was a child, so he likes tailors in the past.
It is indeed not a glorious thing for a big man to like tailoring, and it is understandable that Qiao Mao is reluctant to let outsiders know.
"Mr. Qiao, tailoring has now become another profession, that is, fashion designer, and as far as I know, there are many men in this industry, and many of them have reached the top level, and there seems to be nothing unseemly. β
Fang Ming spoke, his eyes looked at Qiao Mao with deep meaning, and continued: "Mr. Qiao's explanation seems to be a little unreasonable. β
"Who is this?"
Qiao Mao looked at Fang Ming, because he had seen the picture of the study through the mobile phone camera before, and knew that it was the man in front of him who knocked down the bookshelf, exposing his secret room in front of everyone.
"His name is Fang Ming, and he is my friend. Ling Chuchu introduced on the side, "This is Fang Ming's girlfriend, and the other two are also Fang Ming's friends." β
Qiao Mao's gaze swept over Ye Ziyu and Tang Yan and Chen Ze, among the people present, he had never seen Fang Ming and the four, as for Ling Chuchu and Ling Wei, he had seen them, after all, there were only a few girlfriends of his fiancΓ©e.
"Mr. Fang, for ordinary people, designers are indeed a profession of gundam, and it is a matter of pride if they can become a famous designer in the industry, but my situation is different, I am the heir of the Qiao family, managing all the industries of the entire Qiao family, and my father has not looked at me since I was a child, because my father is afraid that I will lose my mind as a plaything. β
For some big families, no matter how popular and tall the designer industry is, in their eyes it is just a tailor, which is like a star now, no matter how bright the king is, how high the income is, but in the eyes of some high-level and some old-fashioned old people, the star is a drama and cannot be put on the stage.
"I see. β
Fang Ming's voice was deliberately lengthened, and he didn't continue the topic, but walked to the bamboo basket on the side of the table, which contained some clothes, which were sewn by Qiao Mao, and when Fang Ming took these clothes, Qiao Mao's face changed a few times.
"Hey, Mr. Qiao used to like to sew wedding dresses. β
The clothes in this bamboo basket are red wedding dresses, and the workmanship is also very good, but Qiao Mao is obviously not very satisfied, otherwise he would not have thrown it away in this garbage basket.
"Ahem, yes. β
"The wedding dress has a meaning, if I remember correctly, Sister Ye Mei already has a wedding dress, Mr. Qiao, you still sew the wedding dress, I don't know what the meaning is?"
When Fang Ming asked this, his eyes stared at Qiao Mao, but Qiao Mao was a little unable to answer, and finally simply avoided looking at Fang Ming.
"Mr. Qiao doesn't want to say why, so let me tell you. β
Seeing Qiao Mao, Fang Ming had already confirmed his judgment one hundred percent, and now all he had to do was to break through Qiao Mao's psychological defense.
"Fang Ming, what are you going to say?"
Ling Chuchu and his entourage all looked at Fang Ming, and Fang Ming smiled faintly, put the wedding dress in his hand on the table, and said slowly: "I heard Sister Ye Mei say that the Ye family and the Qiao family are world friends, Ye Mei and Qiao Mao also knew each other when they were young, and Ye Mei also liked to pester Qiao Mao when she was a child, and followed Qiao Mao like a fart. β
Hearing Fang Ming's words, Ye Meiqiao's face turned red, and her expression became a little shy, because she did often pester Qiao Mao when she was a child.
"If the story is like this, it should be a happy love story, two children who have no guesses have grown up and come together, what an enviable love. β
Fang Ming sighed slightly, looked at Qiao Mao, and continued: "But in this incident, Mr. Qiao, as the male protagonist, doesn't have much feeling for Sister Ye Mei, at least when he was a child, and then as the Ye family moved out of the old house, the two families slowly became estranged, and no one mentioned the baby relatives that the adults joked about at the beginning. β
Regarding the story between Ye Mei and Qiao Mao, when they were eating before, Fang Ming also knew a lot from Ye Mei and Ling Chuchu and others, and it was completely surmising the story between the two.
"Originally, there is nothing like this, if the children have a good time when they are young, they will be together, then this world is full of childhood sweethearts, after the Ye family moved away, the contact between the two families has decreased, and Sister Ye Mei has long forgotten the little boy she liked when she was a child, so when she knew that she was going to be engaged to Mr. Qiao, her heart was full of resistance, and even the idea of escaping from marriage was born. β
The story between Ye Mei and Qiao Mao is very simple, the two childhood playmates later separated, and then the woman had no impression of the man, until many years later, the Ye family returned to the capital, and the parents of the two families once again mentioned the matter of the two children, they all knew the roots, and finally had this marriage.
However, Fang Ming was sure of one thing, that is, Ye Mei ignored a detail, which Ye Mei herself didn't know, and Fang Ming also thought of it when he saw the wedding dress in the bamboo basket.
"Mr. Qiao should love Sister Ye Mei very much, and even fell in love with Sister Ye Mei when he was a child. β
Fang Ming looked at Qiao Mao, the corners of Qiao Mao's mouth twitched, but Ye Mei interrupted Fang Ming's words at this time, and exclaimed: "This is impossible, he hated me when he was a child, and he didn't play with me." β
"If he doesn't play with you, it doesn't mean that he doesn't like you, on the contrary, he will not play with you if he likes you, because only in this way can he protect you, Mr. Qiao, am I right?"
Facing Fang Ming's inquiry, Qiao Mao didn't say a word, but his face became gloomy.
"Fang Ming, you've confused me, since Qiao Mao liked Ye Mei when he was a child, why didn't he play with Ye Mei when he was a child?" Ling Chuchu also asked with a frown.
"I know, this is called wanting to get away with it, obviously like a woman, deliberately pretending not to be interested in her, so that it will arouse the curiosity of the woman and let the woman take the initiative to get close to her. Ling Wei suddenly shouted on the side, and his words were approved by Chen Ze, and he nodded.
Belch......
Fang Ming was a little speechless, but Ling Chuchu glanced at his younger brother angrily, Ye Mei was only four or five years old at that time, and Qiao Mao was less than ten years old, how could such a young child know what it means to be captured.
"Fang Ming, what you mean is that Mr. Qiao can't show his liking for Sister Ye Mei, otherwise it will bring danger to Sister Ye Mei, so Mr. Qiao deliberately pretended not to be interested in Sister Ye Mei. Ye Ziyu thought for a moment and said.
"That's right, that's why. β
Fang Ming nodded, his eyes still looking at Qiao Mao, but at this time, Qiao Mao smiled, with a sarcastic look on his face, and said: "It's just nonsense, if I like Ye Mei will bring danger to Ye Mei, then why should I agree to the engagement between the family and Ye Mei?"
"That's because you think you have the ability to solve the danger that Sister Ye Mei will encounter, so you agreed to this engagement. Fang Ming replied word by word.
Qiao Mao's body shook slightly, but he still pursed his lips and didn't say a word.
"Fang Ming, you make it clear, we are getting more and more confused about what you said. Chen Ze was a little dissatisfied on the side, did Fang Ming deliberately hang everyone's appetite?
"Actually, these failed wedding dresses are already telling, haven't you noticed that Mr. Qiao is sewing the wedding dress that his grandmother gave to Sister Ye Mei in this secret room?"
"Even if Mr. Qiao likes to sew, or even like wedding dresses, then there is no need to sew exactly the same wedding dress as his grandmother, the only reason is that Mr. Qiao has to do this, and his purpose in doing this is actually very simple......"
When he said this, the corners of Fang Ming's mouth hooked up a touch of deep meaning, looked at Qiao Mao, and said word by word: "Mr. Qiao's purpose is to replace the wedding dress that Sister Ye Mei was going to wear when she got engaged, because he knew that the wedding dress would be Sister Ye Mei's life-threatening clothes. β
