Retracting his eyes, Zhan Xingchuan caught a glimpse of Zhan Ruijue muffing out his cheeks while staring unhappily at the mobile phone that Ran Xixi kept in his hand with his beautiful big eyes.

Obviously, the little guy also realized her absent-mindedness and was jealous of the phone.

Zhan Xingchuan coughed lowly and gave his son a look, Zhan Rui Jue was blessed to his heart, and immediately understood what he meant. Swallowing the food in his mouth, he grabbed Ran Xixi's hand and said, "Mom, don't play with your phone, eat well." ”

The tone was as if an adult was talking about a child, and it was the other way around.

Ran Xixi finally came back to her senses, her face was slightly embarrassed, she paused for two seconds, and had to reply embarrassedly: "I didn't play with my mobile phone, what about eating." ”

After speaking, she subconsciously looked at Zhan Xingchuan who was sitting opposite, as if she was a little weak-hearted. And the man was showing a smiling expression, as if he had already seen through everything. This feeling of being understood made Ran Xixi feel very uncomfortable, and she was almost about to fidget, when the mobile phone that had been quiet for a long time rang, just in time to relieve the siege.

Grabbing her phone, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the name flashing on the screen, clenched it in her hand, got up and walked to the side to answer.

Seeing Ran Xixi walking into the distance, Zhan Ruijue was puzzled: "Why did Mom go away?" Is she mad at me? ”

Zhan Xingchuan didn't seem surprised at all as if he knew who was calling, he still cut the steak neatly, and replied without raising his head: "No, Mom will never be angry with you, she will only be angry with me." ”

Zhan Ruijue was even more dazed: "Why are you angry?" ”

Gently putting down the knife and fork in his hand, Zhan Xingchuan raised his head, thought about it seriously, and then replied: "Because Dad did something very bad, she should be angry." However, Dad regrets it now. ”

"Then you say, 'I'm sorry'!"

Zhan Ruijue quickly stuffed a steak into his mouth and said inarticulately.

smiled helplessly at his son, and a classic line suddenly appeared in Zhan Xingchuan's heart - "If the apology is useful, why do you need the police?" ”

Ran Xixi walked to a secluded place, and then said softly: "It's me." Have you been busy lately? William said you've been in meetings. ”

There was a brief silence, followed by a long sigh.

Hearing Qiao Sijie's voice, Ran Xixi's heart suddenly lifted, she knew that he was not a pessimistic person, nor was he an emotional person, and if something could upset him, it would mean that the matter was really serious.

"What's wrong?"

Her voice trembled slightly, and the outside world knew that the strife within the Qiao clan had reached the point of inextricability. As for Ran Xixi, she doesn't really care who wins or loses, she just doesn't want Qiao Sijie to be hurt in any way, especially from her family. She knew better than anyone how much he cared about Qiao Yanne, his only brother.

"Isn't Qiao Yan ...... him?"

Unable to wait for Qiao Sijie's answer, Ran Xixi couldn't help but get anxious, she had to make a bold guess, and prayed silently, hoping that things wouldn't get worse.

"Xixi, let's say it in person, do you have time? Right now, I'll ask William to pick you up, I can't leave the company for the time being, and in two hours, I have a meeting ......"

Qiao Sijie's tone was a little anxious, he rarely did this, so Ran Xixi's uneasy premonition widened.

She didn't ask anything, just glanced back at the father and son who were still in their seats, and immediately replied, "Okay." ”

Then, she gave the address of the restaurant where she was now. Qiao Sijie told Ran Xixi that William was already downstairs in the company and would set off immediately, because the distance was not very far, and he should be able to rush over soon.

Putting down the phone, Ran Xixi walked back to the table with a somewhat complicated mood, she hesitated how to speak, but unexpectedly, Zhan Xingchuan had already turned her head to Zhan Ruijue and asked: "Rui Rui, do you want to play the live-action version of CS, the kind we saw on TV last time?" ”

Zhan Ruijue immediately raised his hands and shouted loudly: "Okay! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Xingchuan reminded: "But this kind of game is not suitable for girls, let's let my mother go back to rest first, and the two of us will go, how about it?" ”

It can be seen that Ran Xixi can't go to this matter together, which makes Zhan Ruijue a little frustrated, but the temptation of the game is still too great, he thought about it, nodded, and said yes.

"I'll take him first, and if you have something to do, go and get busy."

Zhan Xingchuan picked up a tissue, wiped his mouth, and bowed softly to Ran Xixi, as if he had guessed that she was going to leave here next, so he deliberately gave her a step down.

In this way, Ran Xixi can only be grateful to him. She understood that he knew he was not good at speaking, especially in front of the child.

"Rui Rui is very smart, I suggest you have time to have a good chat with him."

Zhan Xingchuan pointed out, no matter whether Ran Xixi would marry Qiao Sijie smoothly or not, she should give the child an explanation on the matter of "divorce", so that he could understand what it really means.

"I ...... I know. I just don't want him to feel like he's different from other kids......"

Ran Xixi hesitated a little and argued in a low voice.

After a few minutes, Zhan Xingchuan took Zhan Ruijue to leave the restaurant first, and after another ten minutes, William arrived downstairs in the restaurant, and Ran Xixi immediately went down.

"Miss Ran, Mr. Qiao asked me to pick you up, please get in the car."

William said politely, the two dark circles on his face were very obvious, and he still had a paper cup of coffee in his hand that he had drunk and threw it into the garbage bin on the side of the road.

It can be seen that the boss works overtime, and it is even harder to work as an assistant.

"I'm sorry for you to run."

Ran Xixi got into the car, but couldn't help but ask, "Is he okay?" Listening to the voice, it seems to be very tired. ”

William immediately started the car, glanced at her in the rearview mirror, and said in a rather helpless tone: "I don't sleep much, I don't eat much, I'm so busy, I'm really tired." ”

She nodded, and instead looked out the window, looking dazed.

Qiao Sijie worked so hard, is there a possibility that it was because he wanted to marry her? Ran Xixi didn't know.

However, according to Qiao's consistent style, in such a traditional big family, Qiao Sijie, who is the eldest son of the eldest son, actually plans to marry a divorced woman with children, this woman has been exposed to various scandals recently, and his life must not be easy.

Not to mention, there is also Qiao Yanne on the side.

Brothers marrying sisters is sometimes a beautiful conversation, but what happened to the four of them is a bad relationship.

Soon, Qiao's building was close in front of him, and William drove the car directly to the underground parking garage, and then took Ran Xixi to an inconspicuous corner and took her around.

"I'm sorry, Miss Ran......"

He was a little embarrassed, because he couldn't take Ran Xixi up the stairs from the main entrance with a swagger.

She nodded knowingly: "It's okay, let's go." ”

The two got into the elevator and made their way to Qiao Sijie's office. He was already waiting there, and as soon as he saw Ran Xixi, he quickly walked up to meet her, and stretched out his hand to hug her.

William gently closed the door and gave them a private space.

"...... in the end"

As soon as Ran Xixi spoke, he was interrupted by Qiao Sijie: "Don't talk yet." ”

He hugged her gently, only feeling that the body in his arms was soft and warm, giving him infinite strength and courage, and how happy it would be if time could completely stand still in this moment.

Two minutes later, Joss let go.

Ran Xixi looked at him and found that his eye sockets were deep and his beard was unkempt, and he looked like he should have stayed up for a few days and nights, and he was very haggard. A wave of self-blame welled up in her heart, feeling that she really didn't care enough about him, but now at this special moment, she was too busy to take care of herself and rashly showed up, which could only cause chaos for him.

"I know everything. He came to me privately, and if I didn't give up this position, he would announce everything to the public. ”

Taking a deep breath, Qiao Sijie didn't go around the bend and said directly.

Ran Xixi was stunned, she didn't understand what he meant, so she subconsciously asked, "What does he know?" ”

After asking, she reacted suddenly, her face suddenly turned pale, her lips moved, and Ran Xixi stammered again: "Should it be...... Isn't that the thing...... How would he—how would he know? ”

Qiao Sijie lowered his eyes: "Yes." ”

After a pause, he said again: "Two days ago, my mother had a big quarrel with Yan Ne, and she didn't choose what to say, and she leaked her mouth, which aroused Yan Ne's suspicion. Then, remembering that I used to keep a diary, he logged on to a blog I used back then and found some text......"

Qiao Sijie was alone abroad, and he did have the habit of writing a few words before going to bed every day, and he also mentioned this matter to Qiao Yanne in the video. And his login password is also very simple, it is a string of birthday numbers, so Qiao Yanne only tried it twice, and he got it right, and he saw the content inside effortlessly.

There is nothing explicit in the diary, most of it is just some emotional expression, but it is precisely because of this kind of text that seems to be a little ambiguous, so it is easier to be made a big fuss by those who care.

Qiao Yanne seized this point and used it to blackmail Qiao Sijie and make him withdraw from the competition early.

"What if you don't say yes?"

Ran Xixi frowned, she couldn't have imagined that Qiao Yanne had become so cold-blooded and shameless since she got married, and she didn't even let go of her own brother.

"If I don't agree, he will make my ** public, telling the public that I like men, and the object of sexual intercourse is still his own brother, and marrying you is just to hide people's eyes."

Qiao Sijie didn't look up, looking very depressed.

It's no wonder that when he hit a snake and hit seven inches, Qiao Yanne did catch his "seven inches" this time, which was very accurate and hit with one hit. If this matter really spreads, not to mention the shame, even Qiao's image will be greatly affected.
