At this time, Mu Yize had already changed back into his clothes, and he was wearing a loose casual suit in a particularly stylish manner, and the yellowish light smeared his eyebrows, which was picturesque.

Of course, Qiao Xu didn't think any painter could depict his eyes.

She waited where she was, but she didn't wait for the boy to take the initiative to come to her.

Shrugging her shoulders indifferently, she took the initiative to walk up to him and looked up at him, "Aze, what a coincidence, I actually met you here." She kept her mouth shut about the farce she had just had.

Mu Yize was silent for a moment, looked away, and replied lightly: "Well, what a coincidence." ”

The woman tilted her head and looked at him with a smile, and at the end, she suddenly turned on a straight face, and said with a serious face: "If you have any difficulties, just tell me, and I can help you." ”

"Thank you." The boy put his hands in his pockets and his eyes fell on the opposite road, "I can solve it myself." ”

Qiao Xu nodded, not reluctantly, only said: "If you need it in the future, you can ask me for help at any time." ”

"Hmm." Mu Yize's expression was detached: "If it's okay, I'll go first." ”

"Back to school?" Qiao Xu always felt that tonight's little brother rose seemed to be keeping a distance from her.

The boy was silent, and under the cover of the lights, there seemed to be a pulse flowing in his eyes, "Go home." ”

Qiao Xu thought about it for a while, and thought of Mu Yize's disabled mother, he should have gone back to see his mother.

Thinking like this, Qiao Xu's eyes softened, and he asked lightly: "Where is your home, I'll send you." ”

She mentioned sending him many times, and each time she received a thank you from him, and then she refused. This time, there were no exceptions.

Mu Yize put his gaze back on her face, the sparkle in his eyes disappeared, replaced by endless blackness, "Thank you." He looked her straight and fixedly, "I think you should spend your time with your fiancé." ”

After saying this, the boy walked directly around Qiao Xu towards the other side of the road, Qiao Xu turned around, only to see his tall and thin back getting farther and farther away from her, until he disappeared into the traffic.

Blinking slowly, she stood still for a moment, then turned and sat back in the car. Subconsciously touched the cigarette case, only to find that the one he had just smoked was already the last one, Qiao Xu pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, but he couldn't help but think of the words of Brother Rose in his mind.

Aze seems to be angry, is it because she is pestering him?

Qiao Xu wrinkled her nose in confusion, and then drove her classic car back to the apartment.

When she arrived at the apartment, she casually cooked a bowl of instant noodles, turned on the TV, and ate noodles silently in the hustle and bustle of the room. Eating and drinking, she played tricks on Xiao Hei in her boredom, and when she was tired of playing, she simply took a shower and buried herself in the soft bed.

The dim wall lamps shrouded her room, as if covered with a veil, and the strange and strange interior style of the usual days had an illusion of tranquility and tranquility.

***

The next day, Qiao Xu stayed in the flower shop all day, and Mu Yize didn't even look at her.

So she was sure that Brother Rose was angry.

Qiao Xu thought about it and felt that it was because he indirectly caused him to lose his part-time job at KTV, so he ignored her.

"Hey." She sighed, what should I do if Brother Rose is colder to her? (ˇˇ)

Seeing that Mu Yize sent the last customer out of the door, Qiao Xu hurriedly seized the opportunity to come over.

"Aze."

The boy regarded her as an invisible person, and walked around her to Zhou Xiaoxiao's side.

Rao is Zhou Xiaoxiao has always lacked roots, and he also noticed that the atmosphere between the two was a little unusual.

Someone who was ignored pursed his lips helplessly, touched his head, and saw Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes swirling between her and Brother Rose, Qiao Xu raised her chin slightly, Zhou Xiaoxiao was blessed for a moment, "Sister Qiao, I'm ...... My stomach hurts, so I'll leave for a while. ”

Qiao Xu smiled and nodded, "Go ahead." But I thought in my heart, Xiaoxiao was finally smarter.

Without Zhou Xiaoxiao's light bulb, Qiao Xu pretended to look at the weather, but his legs spontaneously paced to Zhou Xiaoxiao's position.

"Aze, what do you want to eat in a moment?"

Mu Yize paused, "I'll go back to school to eat." ”

"......" Qiao Xu unconsciously pulled the stars in his hand, was quiet for a moment, and asked again: "It's almost May Day, have you thought about where to play?" ”

"I'm going to work."

Qiao Xu wanted to tell him not to go to work, she could give him a raise, but she couldn't find a reason to do so.

was depressed, and a man's voice came from his ears: "Qiao Xu." ”

"Huh?" Qiao Xu's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but hold his breath.

"In the future, please call me by my name."

“……”

Qiao Xu lifted his eyelids to look at him, and the boy was looking at her quietly, as if he didn't mind the title of the name. I couldn't help but feel a little deflated in my heart, but the smile on my face bloomed peacefully, and the woman narrowed her eyes slightly, "What should I do, I still prefer to call you Aze." ”

"......" Mu Yize frowned slightly, and the curvature of his jaw was a little tight.

But in the end, nothing was said again.

From that day on, Qiao Xu felt that Brother Rose had fewer words. Although Brother Rose did not communicate with her, he was still meticulous in his work, and the turnover of the flower shop increased several times in just two months.

Zhou Xiaoxiao couldn't close her mouth happily, but Qiao Xu, who should be the most happy, couldn't laugh.

If she had a choice, she would rather Brother Rose not be so dedicated, every time she saw him talking and laughing with those female customers, Qiao Xu felt sour water in her heart.

Don't be too obvious about the difference, it's clear that she is his boss!

Because he was deflated on Mu Yize's side, Qiao Xu stretched out his magic grasp to Xiao Hei. Carefully calculated, the time she raised this crow was no less than a few days of hiring Brother Rose. Xiao Hei is very arrogant, he always looks at her with his head held high, and even when he is hungry, he croaks like an old crow.

When Qiao Xu arrived home, he heard Xiao Hei howling in his throat.

Closing the door and changing into slippers, Qiao Xu moved a stool and sat in front of Xiao Hei without hurry, picked up the fragrant takeaway in his hand, and started eating. She deliberately showed a look of enjoyment, slowing down the action of eating, so that Xiao Hei could see how she was stuffing the meat in her mouth.

Seeing this, Xiao Hei screamed even more fiercely, and his wings fluttered hard, setting off gusts of wind.

Qiao Xu calmly moved the chair back a little and continued to eat slowly, and at the end, she sandwiched a piece of braised pork, made a feeding feint, and then leisurely stuffed it into her mouth.

Xiao Hei closed the big beak of the bird, and stopped screaming, and the two bird's eyes stared at her without blinking.

How dare this abominable human being provoke it like this! If eyes could kill, Qiao Xu would have been shot through by Xiao Hei's cold eyes.

I stare and I stare again.

Then, it watched as Qiao Xu ate all the bowls full of rice, leaving no single bite for it.

Blackie: ╭(╯^╰)╮

Qiao Xu burped, threw the plastic food box into the trash, and then rubbed his hands with a smile, "Xiao Hei, I have prepared a special dinner for you." ”

Blackie: (☆▽☆)

Qiao Xu took out a bag of green vegetables, took out one and shook it at Xiao Hei, "It's a healthy and nutritious vegetable." ”

Blackie: (#‵′) Convex

***

When Qiao Hongsheng called Qiao Xu again, she answered very simply.

Sometimes thinking about it, Qiao Hongsheng is really strange, knowing that every time they meet, they will quarrel, and after a while, he calls her home like no one.

Go home? Is that still her home?

Qiao Xu stepped on it, and when she arrived at Qiao's house, the family of three was already in place at the dining table, waiting for her, an outsider.

With a rough sweep, Qiao Hongsheng sat in the main seat, and Zhang Meiqi and Qiao Anan sat on both sides. At this time, Qiao Hongsheng was quite disgusted by her tardiness, but finally suppressed it,

"Sister, sit next to me." Qiao Anan stood up and pointed to the empty seat next to Qiao Xu.

Qiao Xu skimmed lightly and sat opposite Qiao Hongsheng, with a distance of nearly three meters between the two.

Qiao An'an stood in place with an embarrassed face, smiled in disguise, and sat back in place silently. Seeing this, Qiao Hongsheng saw this, and the folds between his eyebrows deepened.

Zhang Meiqi on the side reached out and patted the back of his hand, and said with a soft smile: "Hongsheng, it's rare for Xiaoxu to come back, let's have a good meal as a family." ”

After that, Zhang Meiqi asked the nanny to bring the meal.

During this meal, no one spoke, only the crisp sound of chopsticks colliding with the dishes and chopsticks occasionally sounded.

After the meal, Qiao Xu rarely did not leave immediately, but looked at Qiao Hongsheng and said, "I have something I want to tell you." ”

When Qiao Hongsheng heard this, his eyebrows raised, and a trace of surprise crossed his eyes.

"Come to my study." After throwing off a sentence, Qiao Hongsheng walked towards the study.

Qiao Xu didn't rush to leave, and glanced at Zhang Meiqi and Qiao An'an with a smile, and then followed unhurriedly.

Zhang Meiqi, who stayed in place, changed slightly, and regained her calm in an instant.

When he arrived at the study, Qiao Xu closed the door of the study, and when he turned around, Qiao Hongsheng's low and majestic voice came from the front: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Qiao Xu paused and leaned lazily against the wall, "It's not a big deal, I just want to tell you about the dissolution of my marriage contract with Ling Key." ”

"Dissolution of the marriage?" Qiao Hongsheng's eyes were sharp, "Didn't I tell you before, don't mention this topic again?" ”

He was imposing, cold as a knife, but Qiao Xu looked at him calmly, and at the end, the corners of his lips curled a little, "My life doesn't need you to be at your mercy." ”

"At the mercy?" Qiao Hongsheng couldn't help but reach out and rub his throbbing eyebrows, and sighed: "Qiao Xu, I am your father, and I do this for your good." ”

Good for her? It was the funniest joke she'd ever heard.

"I don't like Ling Key." Qiao Xu put away the smile on the corner of his mouth and calmly stated this fact.

Qiao Hongsheng looked at her with complicated eyes, this daughter who has always been rebellious and does not play cards according to common sense.

"Feelings can be cultivated, you and Ling Key's childhood sweetheart, there is still love."

Who knew that Qiao Xu listened, stared at him tightly, and asked, "What about you, have you fallen in love with her in the nine years you have been with my mother?" ”

Before the words fell, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Qiao Hongsheng was a little stunned, and a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "The matter between me and your mother has passed." ”

"Hmm." Qiao Xu nodded, his eyes mocking, "You married her because of interests, so the tragedy between you will continue on me?" ”

Qiao Hongsheng came back to his senses, angry and angry, and finally closed his eyes weakly, and his voice floated in the air in a deep voice.

"Qiao Xu, I can see that Ling Jian likes you, even if he doesn't like you in the future, for the sake of the love you grew up together, he won't treat you badly." Qiao Hongsheng's voice was very good, but Qiao Xu heard a hint of old age in it, "In case you get sick in the future, he will at least be your last support." ”

He made this decision after careful consideration, Ling Jian and Qiao Xu have a marriage contract, as long as he does not regret it, the Ling family, which has always paid attention to commitment, will never regret the marriage.

Of course, Qiao Xu knew what Qiao Hongsheng was worried about, her family suffered from familial inherited mental illness, and her grandmother and mother both killed themselves because of schizophrenia. This is also the reason why Qiao Hongsheng arranged for Zhao Zheng to conduct regular psychological examinations for her.

"I'm not sick." Although he has always been regarded by Qiao Hongsheng as a psychopath, Qiao Xu never thought that he would get sick.

Qiao Hongsheng paused for a moment before he said: "Qiao Xu, listen to my advice, don't think about ethereal love, love will kill you." ”

Qiao Xu sneered, feeling that there was no need to talk to Qiao Hongsheng.

She shook her head, turned around and opened the door, the light outside the door drove away the darkness in the study, and in the next moment, Qiao Hongsheng heard Qiao Xu's low and indistinguishable words: "I am not Liu Manru, I am not so fragile, and the man I am looking for in the future will never fail me." ”

The door of the study closed in front of Qiao Hongsheng's eyes, and the room fell silent again, and he stared at an inkstone on the desk in a daze.

In his memory, the woman who should have been vague suddenly and clearly imprinted in his mind at this time.

Ah Sheng, have you ever loved me?
