61 61.

With a bang, the iron door was pushed open, and Qiao Shanquan didn't move, leaning lazily against the corner of the wall, looking up.

Mr. Hawke was not surprised to see her, and smiled slightly.

"Beautiful girl, why don't you go into the house?"

Twisting out the cigarette butt, Qiao Shanquan crossed the other party's shoulder, and saw Fei Li's expressionless face in the doorway, she frowned worriedly.

"This is leaving? Well, then go slowly, don't send. Dragged out her tone, Qiao Shanquan waved her hand perfunctorily, and when Hawke's back was gone, she raised her eyes and watched Ferry walk in front of her.

Ferry looked down at her, and stopped talking.

Raising her arm, Qiao Shanquan hooked his neck and blew into the root of his ear: "Do you have anything to say to me?" โ€

Taking a deep breath of her sweet scent, Ferrie closed his eyes and slowly felt her breath burrow into his alveoli, filling every cell of him, and washing away those oppressive gray โ–กโ–ก.

He smiled at the corners of his lips and lowered his head to kiss her sideburns.

"Let's go, let's go inside, the ice cream I prepared last night is ready to eat."

In the blink of an eye, Qiao Shanquan swallowed the question that came to her mouth, she cheered cooperatively, pursed her red lips and kissed his mouth, jumped into the kitchen, pumped and changed hands back and forth, and rushed up to the attic with a large bowl of cold air, pulling Juan down to share the good food and mood together.

Ferry loves the convivial atmosphere, he loves cooking for the family he values, and he loves the smiles they put on their faces.

Juan was holding a ball of ice cream that was stuffed by Qiao Shanquan, shivering from the cold, his face was wrinkled, and he was reluctant to spit it out, not to mention how cute his small appearance was.

Qiao Shanquan laughed when she saw it.

Aggrieved and desperate, Juan tried to swallow the ice cream, and while burrowing into her arms, he whispered, "Is that uncle gone?" โ€

"Baby, did you hear what they said?"

Juan shook his head honestly: "No, Daddy let me take a nap upstairs and wouldn't let me go down." I'm very well-behaved and don't make noise to him when I sleep. After saying that, he tilted his head and thought, "Daddy doesn't look very happy. โ€

Pouting, Qiao Shanquan was about to say something, but Fei Li pinched his phone and followed.

"Qiaoqi, I have something to discuss with you."

Qiao Shanquan licked the spoon and raised her eyebrows to look at him: "What's the matter?" โ€

Staring at the tip of her lovely pink tongue, Ferry stared at the tip of her lovely pink tongue, and her body tightened and burned uncontrollably.

His voice became deeper and more magnetic: "I'm going to go back to the manor alone. โ€

"Is something wrong?"

"The last time I left in a hurry, I was looking for a suspicious person on the estate, and the cowboy who was sent to follow the worker said that he had lost him, and we don't have any conclusive evidence of his collusion with Armando. Mr. Antonio called me just now to say that the cowboys, who were patrolling the ranch on horseback, had found the body of the worker near the border of our land. โ€

Qiao Shanquan's face changed drastically when she heard this: "How is this possible? He's actually dead? โ€

Sitting down, Ferry pressed his eyebrows, and said as he pondered, "That's right, he's dead." And because he died on the land of our estate, the police are going to investigate it. I expect that the news will spread soon, and the worker's relatives will need to come forward to reassure him...... There were so many things happening at the same time that I had to go back and take care of it myself. โ€

"It's just too bad." Holding the spoon, Qiao Shanquan lost the pleasure of enjoying the food.

Death, like a heavy stone weighing on her heart, she subconsciously looked for something to hold on to beside her, and Ferry tacitly reached out and held her tightly.

"Yes, but you don't have to worry, I'll go back to the manor, arrange all these trivial matters as soon as possible, and sort out the relevant accounts of the manor by the way, three months are about to arrive, Russell and they should come to the door and talk to me about the transfer procedures for the rest of the estates." Georgie, I'm sorry I can't continue to be with you. You took Juan to stay, to stay in New York. I'll be back as soon as I can, okay? โ€

Fingertips lifted her chin, and Ferry looked into her eyes in fascination, sliding the back of his fingers over her cool, smooth skin.

"Why can't you let us go back with you?" Qiao Shanquan was a little dissatisfied.

"I don't want to get you into those troubles, you know? What's more, I have one more thing to tell you. โ€

Raising her eyebrows for him to continue, Qiao Shan scooped a spoonful of ice cream into Juan's mouth and pinched his cheek.

Speaking of this, Fei Li's eyebrows brought a little joy: "Qiaoqi, aren't you worried about which media interview you should accept?" Also, if you want to further expand your brand awareness now, in addition to finding an investor who is willing to pay for it, there is another way, and that is to work with people. โ€

"What do you mean......"

"It just so happened that a friend of mine was investing in a film that he was going to shoot in New York with his team, and I recommended you to him because I wanted to...... Maybe you could try to be a costume consultant for them? โ€

Qiao Shanquan's heart first stopped, and then beat violently and rapidly.

Ferry's words lit a lamp for her and opened a window.

He was right.

As a designer, in addition to guarding her own studio, drawing design drawings, and sewing samples herself, she can certainly provide advice on clothing matching for film and television works.

If the work can arouse enough topic and heat, it will play a very good publicity effect for her and her brand.

"Oh, bearded, you're so smart!" Gragging his ear, Qiao Shanquan leaned over and took two bites, kissed him the cheek, and her bright eyes flashed with eager light, "Of course I'm willing to try it!" What's that friend's name? Can you give me his contact information? I will make an appointment with him to discuss further and try to satisfy him......"

Juan's staring at him made Ferrier's roots burn red. He looked away uncomfortably, not knowing whether to tell the excited woman, but when he made a little suggestion, the other party agreed to it......

Watching Qiao Shanquan jump up, biting the spoon and running around to dig out all the works he had participated in in the past and the materials he had sorted out, the tenderness between Fei Li's eyebrows couldn't help but ripple.

She was so dazzling and full of energy, he wanted not to let the gloom of his past and the troubles in the manor affect her, and he was willing to give everything to protect her, so that she could always keep this smile and do what she wanted.

Because he was in a hurry to leave, Ferry drove Juan away and held Qiao Shan for a long time.

The two hugged each other fiercely, each making them cherish their last moments more.

Until the breathing of the person in his arms became long, Ferry carefully pulled out his arm and let her lie down on the soft pillow. Standing up, he looked at her infatuated for a while, remembering that she was so tired that her eyelids kept drooping down, and she was still holding on to talk to him, and her childish reluctance made his heart so soft that it almost melted.

Holding her hand and kissing her on the lips, Ferrie brushed away her loose hair, got up to pack her things, and left their attic.

When I woke up, the other half of the bed was already cold.

Qiao Shanquan was stunned, reached out and touched it, retracted her paws again, and covered herself.

The body has adapted to the life of two people one step earlier than reason, accustomed to having his temperature and breath lingering. Now that I think about it, this habit is really addictive, no wonder my mother would carry her father, who was always on a business trip, and found other lovers, and later, the paper could not contain the fire, and the marriage and family were completely broken.

Covering her eyes with her backhand, Qiao Shanquan sighed: "Don't think about it, why do you keep thinking about the past recently?" โ€

Yes, it must have been the bearded man.

It's all because he suddenly had a father who wanted to recognize his relatives, and he couldn't hide the depression in his eyes, so he even took her nervously and remembered too many things that shouldn't be remembered.

She couldn't remember her father's appearance a little, but she remembered that he was a well-mannered and bookish man.

In contrast, Ferry's father, Mr. Hawke, has six or seven similar facial features to Ferry and his eyebrows and eyes are almost identical, with retro elegant lines, with a touch of mystery and melancholy that cannot be dissolved. makes his entire facial features look even more unpredictable and intriguing.

When Mr. Hawke left yesterday, Qiao Shanquan noticed the fleeting helplessness and regret on his face.

It seems that Ferry's stubbornness is not only manifested in other aspects, even in the face of his own father, he is still like a hard stinky stone.

However, Qiao Shanquan did not intend to meddle in this matter, she hoped that Ferry would respect herself, so she would respect his choice as well.

It's a void to not have family around, but they have each other now, don't they?

As the days go by, they will continue to walk and fill in all the gaps in each other's lives.

Without Ferry by her side, Qiao Shanquan worked hard to live her life to the fullest.

In fact, nothing seems to have changed in her life either.

Accompany Juan, teach him some preliminary pre-school knowledge, and take him to paint by the way.

The media was still trying to contact her, Qiao Shanquan simply threw her phone into the refrigerator and followed them to call, she didn't bother to pay attention.

As for her lawsuit with AJ Group, Emon would update her on the progress of the case in emails from time to time, and the whole judicial process would take quite a while, and Qiao Shanquan had been prepared for it, and she was not worried about losing the case.

In the face of the upcoming trial, the stock price of AJ Group has plummeted, and investment confidence has been seriously affected, and other news, from time to time, will float on the front page of the day's financial news, and Qiao Shanquan will pass by it.

As she could imagine, that bastard from Jalent must be having a terrible time right now.

She even happily imagined that with Jalent's urine, after getting into a plagiarism lawsuit, would she pass the buck with Demi and kick the ball to others, so that Demi would completely carry the blame, wash his name, and protect his position in the group.

Think about it, the scene of two sluts tearing each other apart must be quite exciting.

But Qiao Shanquan didn't have the energy to pay attention to them, she had more important things to do.

The contact information left by Ferry was not signed with the other party's name, Qiao Shanquan didn't think much about it, picked a suitable time to call, and after the phone was connected, the familiar Chinese sounded on the other end.

Before Qiao Shanquan could recover from her shock, she murmured to the door, and she was completely stunned by the bright and hearty laughter on the other end of the phone and the name that followed.

It's actually Chinese!

And he is also the actor who has won the little golden man and won the Palme d'Or - Mu Ningyue!

Qiao Shanquan continued to be in a state of distraction and messiness throughout the call, and when the call ended, her arms hung down, and her empty gaze gradually focused on it.

"Ahh

Screaming pierced the sky.

Juan ran over barefoot and threw himself into her arms: "Qiaoqi, Qiaoqi, what's wrong with you?" Did you see the big rats? โ€

The kid went downstairs and passed by the garbage dump a few days ago and was startled by a few rats that popped up.

Qiao Shanquan put her arms around him, casually comforted him, and fell back sharply, lying on the bed kicking and screaming.

"Oh my God! I really didn't expect that the bearded man actually knew that actor, Mu Ningyue! This nasty fellow, he's never talked to me...... By the way, a few years ago, Mu Ningyue walked a fashion show that shook the fashion circle, and that time it opened ...... That's right, it's a beard that hasn't grown a beard yet. As soon as the light bulb above her head lit up, Qiao Shanquan remembered.

Juan lay beside her confused: "Qiaoqi, what are you talking about, I don't understand." โ€

Qiao Shanquan smiled and kissed him on the cheek: "It's okay if you don't understand, let me think about it......"

Being able to work with international actor Mu Ningyue and his team is definitely a good opportunity for Qiao Shanquan not to be missed. I'm afraid that there are countless designers out there who have squeezed their heads and thought of getting a kick here.

However, she is confident that she has worked and lived abroad for many years, and can grasp the similarities and differences between European and American and Eastern cultures and aesthetics, and try her best to make the design consultant work of the film as perfect as possible.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, Qiao Shanquan was full of joy and fighting spirit, and after calming down, she missed the tall man who matched her and paid silently.

She had a lot of questions to ask him face to face, and she wanted to throw herself into his arms desperately, kiss him hard, strip him naked of his eyesore, enjoy his beautiful body, and indulge in the supreme passion that only he could bring her.

Qiao Shanquan stood up and looked at Juan with sparkling eyes.

"Baby, shall we sneak into your daddy? Give him a surprise. โ€

"Yes, yes!" Nodding his head like pounding garlic, Juan clapped his hands desperately, he was content as long as he could be with Georgie and Daddy.

One big and one small hugged each other, smiling so much that their eyes narrowed, and their eyebrows were crooked. 166 Reading Network
