"Best friend. ”

It's obvious. Lu Qinghuan answered this question. Actually, it's doubtful. But he didn't want to say it too explicitly. aroused Ran Xixi's disgust. Originally. He's not a man of many words, either. can see that she is a "friend". I always feel that she is too simple.

Men and women make friends. Only purely friendly. Not for nothing.

Merely. The situation tends to be a little more special.

And Joss Jie and her ...... No matter what Lu Qinghuan thinks. He didn't feel that simple. Especially. When he stumbled upon it. The camera used by Ran Xixi was given to her by Qiao Sijie. It's worth a lot of money. And it's not something that can be bought with just money. Lu Qinghuan was even more unconvinced. The man was just a friend of her.

A man wants to be nice to a woman. Want to spend money for a woman. What it means. Presumably every man knows it in his heart.

"yes. What's wrong. ”

Ran Xixi didn't fail to see Lu Qinghuan's suspicions. But she didn't want to explain. If explained. I want to tell Qiao Sijie's personal **. That's a no-no.

"It's fine. He's back. ”

Lu Qinghuan took the initiative to end this topic. Reminded aloud.

Really. Qiao Sijie walked over with an embarrassed expression. Holding his phone in his hand. Very embarrassed, he said, "Xi." My mom wants to say a few words to you...... She has to ask for your phone number. I don't give it to her. As a result, she is clamoring to go to Paris to find you. I had to tell her. You're right next to me right now......"

He never imagined that his mother would be so willful. At times like these. And force yourself to do this kind of thing.

Ran Xixi was extremely embarrassed. She looked at Qiao Sijie. I didn't know if I should answer it. Or should you go and say no.

At last. She still stubbornly snapped. Took the phone. Put it in your ear. Whispered, "Mrs. Joe." Hello ......"

Don't wait for Ran Xixi to finish. Mrs. Qiao cried and said, "Please help me persuade Xiaojie." He's in his thirties. He can't see his son get married. We have two sons though. But for so many years, I haven't had the days of teasing my grandson. Now Old Joe is going to die. I can't find a word. He couldn't close his eyes anymore. If Xiao Jie keeps single. Our Qiao family is ......"

She cried so hard. Hiccups repeatedly. I can barely say the whole thing.

Ran Xixi can't stand people crying the most. Especially women crying. Her scalp tingled. I always felt that women like Mrs. Joe were actually very scary creatures: when they were willing to show their dignified and generous side. More noble and gentle than anyone else. But when they lay down their faces to sprinkle. and more open-minded than anyone else.

"Mrs. Joe. You calm down first. After all, marriage depends on the fate of two people. I can understand your feelings. But you also need the person to be willing......"

She said. While looking at Qiao Sijie beside him. Ran Xixi had a bitter face. Even his facial features were wrinkled together. Keep blinking. That means to say. I really can't handle it now.

“……”

Joss was also very embarrassed. In this world. The woman he is not good at dealing with is his mother.

"That girl from the Wen family. I have always wanted to marry into our Qiao family. She didn't stare at Yan Ne now. Staring at Xiao Jie. She didn't want to think about it either. What a broken flower and a willow she is. How can I let this kind of woman ruin the lintel. You are abroad now. There are no girls from middle-class families around? Don't be too rich. As long as it's a serious and innocent person. I also studied abroad. I must be able to have a common language with Xiao Jie......"

Mrs. Jo changed her mind. Obviously, he asked Ran Xixi to introduce a suitable girlfriend to Qiao Sijie.

For her statement. Ran Xixi felt surprised. It's funny again.

When will I be able to be a matchmaker? And. Even if she could accept it. When did Qiao Sijie fall to the point where he needed to introduce his marriage partner. This Mrs. Joe. It's really been off the line for a few years.

And. It's not like she doesn't know what happened to her son. It's just playing the piano randomly.

"Mrs. Joe. This one...... I'm sorry. I can't really help you......"

Ran Xixi said stiffly.

"You don't mean to say. Xiao Jie doesn't like women's things. I've already secretly asked people. Now there is a lot of technology. Even if it's not the same room. As long as you want to have children. It is also capable of giving birth. In a word. Our Qiao family will not be sorry for the daughter-in-law that Ming Media is marrying. I will treat her like my own daughter. I have children in the future. We raised the baby together......

The more Mrs. Joe talked, the more outrageous it became. Hearing this, Ran Xixi only felt a tingling in his heart. See. This is how the elders of most families think about the marriage of their children. As long as it can be passed on from generation to generation. As long as you can have children. They don't care about the feelings between husband and wife at all. I don't even think it matters at all. Because life is spent on firewood, rice, oil and salt. It's not a storm.

I couldn't hear what my mother was saying. But seeing Ran Xixi's expression getting more and more ugly. Qiao Sijie couldn't hold back any longer. A handful snatched the phone from her hand. Quickly stepped aside. Lowered his voice and yelled, "Mom." Don't talk about it. No matter what you say. Anyway, I won't talk about it anymore. What time is it now? You don't stay with my dad. I'm still worried about this kind of thing. Are you thinking I'm not busy enough...... Wen Yitong. What's wrong with her. She loves it as much as she likes. If she goes to the house again, make trouble. You just call the police. Let's see who is the shame in the end. ”

Shouted in one breath. Qiao Sijie hung up the phone.

He walked back to the bar. Ask someone to make a glass of wine for yourself.

Ran Xixi tried to stop him: "Did you drive?" ”

Qiao Sijie shook his head: "It's okay." I asked the driver to come and pick me up in a moment. ”

Only then did she withdraw her hand.

Soon. A few snacks ordered by Lu Qinghuan were also served. Both he and Ran Xixi were already hungry. On the contrary, I can't eat much. Jostier, on the other hand, doesn't eat at all. Just sip and drink the stuffy wine.

All in all. There was something a little weird about the atmosphere between the three of them.

At last. It was Lu Qinghuan who broke this uncomfortable embarrassment. He wiped his mouth. He whispered, "It tastes good." Seemingly. We stumbled by mistake today. I was able to eat a rare delicacy. ”

Ran Xixi poked a corner of the pie on the plate with a fork. I had to echo: "Yes." Very well rated online. Esprit. You're really in the right place. At present, the domestic economic environment is not very good. Maybe the professional stock trader has not set up a stall to sell it, and the early one makes more money. ”

Amused by her words, Qiao Sijie finally smiled. He shook the wine glass in his hand. Said helplessly: "Don't mention it." Yan Ne also said just now. His money is trapped in investments. Do you think he really came back because he was worried about the old man? I'm so embarrassed to say. He'......"

Later words. Qiao Sijie didn't say anything more. But Lu Qinghuan and Ran Xixi all understood.

The Qiao family is a mountain of gold after all. Even if the past few years have not been as beautiful as before. But the foundation of Jinshan is still there. The foundation is still there. Just dig a few times. There is also money to be taken. Qiao Yanne has been adrift outside for so long. Now it's having trouble with money. His first reaction. Or ask your family for help.

Lu Qinghuan is fine. In the spirit of not caring about yourself. But Ran Xixi was very shocked. She didn't expect it. Qiao Yanne has changed so much now. Seemingly. Some things are really ink-black. I've been with that woman for a long time. He has now learned that his six relatives do not recognize him. There is only money in the eyes. There is no family affection anymore.

Before leaving. Qiao Sijie specially told Ran Xixi. About those words his mom said. Let her not take it to heart.

"I know. She was also too anxious. I want your dad to go without regrets. But. This kind of thing. I'm an outsider. There's really no way to meddle. If there's anything I can do. You must call me. ”

She said with a sincere face.

Qiao Sijie nodded. Then he asked, "When will you go?" ”

Ran Xixi paused slightly. Still tell the truth: "I'm waiting for news from Zhanxingchuan." is preparing to divorce him. He should also contact the lawyer in the next two days. Wait until he's got it all right. I'll sign and leave. ”

"Divorce. Haven't you left? ”

Joss was taken aback. Day. It was still the Civil Affairs Bureau where he accompanied Ran Xixi. He remembers it well. When Ran Xixi walked out. In his hand, he did hold the divorce certificate with Zhan Xingchuan.

She was helpless. I had to briefly tell him the ins and outs of the whole thing.

After listening. Qiao Sijie also frowned deeply.

He was not very clear about the relevant laws in that area. But since Zhan Xingchuan dares to make a big fuss about this issue. It shows that he still has a law to follow. There is a law to follow. It can't be a lie.

"That's the case. All right. How careful you are. ”

Qiao Sijie could only tell her a few words. Then personally sent Lu Qinghuan and Ran Xixi out of the door. Let them come back when they are free.

See them get in the car and leave. He stood in the doorway. Smiled bitterly helplessly.

Dozens of hours without sleep. Drunk again. Joss had a splitting headache. He picked up his phone. Call the driver. Let him pick him up right away. He had to go and rest first.

Although she had long known that Ran Xixi ruined the marriage she had already engaged with Qiao Sijie as her sister. But. So directly and face-to-face with Qiao Sijie. For Lu Qinghuan. It's the first time I've ever experienced it.

Short and direct confrontation. It gave him a strong sense of crisis.

Although Qiao Sijie and Zhan Xingchuan are not the same kind of people. But precisely because they are not the same kind of people. The former is even more insignificant.

"Since he is gracious to you. Then you will repay the favor. After divorcing Zhan Xingchuan. Marry him directly. Aren't the people in his family in a hurry? was forced to marry by his dying father. That's a lot of pressure, too. ”

There was no rush to start the car. Lu Qinghuan said lightly.

Since Ran Xixi and him euphemistically broke up. He felt that his whole person's anger had become very heavy. There was a breath of anger in the body. There is nowhere to vent.
