Chapter 196 Love has to be talked about, and career has to be taken into account
Ye Zili: "Qiao Xinyi will no longer renew the contract with Aotian, it turns out that there are so many post-recruits, and her ambition is not small." ”
Gu Yuan: "It's a good choice to switch to the business world, but this Qiao Xinyi I don't think she looks like business material." ”
Bao Xiaoxi: "Agreed." ”
Qiao Du stared at Ye Zili, Gu Yuan, and Bao Xiaoxi who suddenly appeared, and found that it was not the work group of the three of them, but Qi Shuang's newly built chatting group, and she was pulled in at some point.
Qi Shuang: "I'm here, Shenma situation?" ”
Lu Xiaomeng: "Sister Shuangshuang, you came just in time, look at the website link I just shared, it's about Qiao Xinyi." ”
A little anxious, Qiao Duan put down her mobile phone, went to the bathroom and came back to find that > other party's name was Xu Li.
Very unfamiliar name.
Qiao Du vigilantly did not pass.
Almost all of her WeChat messages are close friends or work partners, and she doesn't feel the need to add them to a stranger.
Within a few minutes, the other party sent an application again, this time writing in the verification column: Xu Li, the female supporting role of "Yuanhai".
Supporting actress in "Yuanhai"?
Qiao Du went through it in her mind, in addition to Bai Yan being a supporting actress, there was indeed a supporting actress, as if she played the daughter of a famous family who later married the male protagonist.
Qiao Du hesitated for a moment and approved the friend application.
Xu Li: "Hey, thank you for adding me [sticking out my tongue]. ”
Qiao Dui: "Is there something wrong?" ”
Xu Li: "Big star, can't I add you if it's okay?" ”
Qiao Twilight thought for a moment, "It's okay, I'm going to sleep, good night." ”
Xu Li: "Sleep so early? It's only ten o'clock, do you want to come out and play? ”
Qiao Du didn't reply, she was a little unsure of Xu Li's personality, and she asked people to go out to play at ten o'clock in the evening, looking like a nightclub owner.
Xu Li then sent it enthusiastically: "If you send me your address, I'll pick you up." ”
Qiao Du confirmed his guess and ignored it.
The next day, Qiao Du was downstairs having breakfast alone, and the kitchen asked her what she wanted to eat last night, and she casually said something light, so today the kitchen boiled barley porridge and gave her another drawer of steamed buns and a few side dishes.
There was movement outside, and several nannies came in from outside pushing large and small suitcases, and she knew that Jian Pei was back.
"Morning eldest sister." Qiao Yun's greeting made Qiao Duan look up at him.
Qiao Yun has a good complexion, his skin seems to be whiter, he shows his white teeth when he smiles, he is wearing a black Moncler down jacket, and he is wearing a Burberry classic plaid cashmere scarf around his neck.
At first glance, it looks much more confident and cheerful than when he just came back, it seems that Jian Pei took Yun'er out for a while this time, which opened her eyes and had a little effect.
Qiao Du stopped chewing and smiled at him, "Back?" Have a good vacation? ”
"It's fun." Qiao Yun said with his face out, then walked over quickly, and whispered to her, "Sister, I want to see my mother, can you help me think of a way." ”
Qiao Du pursed her lips: "Didn't you just come back from vacation with your mother?" ”
"It's not." Qiao Yun hesitated, and then said more quietly: "I'm talking about my adoptive mother, you've seen her, I haven't seen her for a few days, if I hadn't been clamoring to come back, my biological mother would have to take me to Europe for a trip, or not come back until the next year." ”
After the words fell, Jian Pei walked in in a black fur, glanced at the light barley porridge in front of Qiao Duan, turned to Qiao Yun's gaze and immediately turned enthusiastic, touched Qiao Yun's face lovingly and said, "Son, you have to be clamoring to fly back in the middle of the night, are you hungry now?" Mom asked the kitchen to make something to eat for you, there is something you like to eat......"
"Mom, I've had enough of the greasy stuff." Qiao Yun interrupted a little impatiently, and then pushed Jian Pei's hand away: "Just let the kitchen serve me a bowl of porridge like my sister." ”
Jian Pei was not angry at all when she was treated like this by her son, but glared at Qiao Dui, and automatically counted the account on her head, thinking that she had said something to Qiao Yun.
Qiao Du was also shot while lying down, and was not surprised by Jian Pei's patriarchy, crooked her lower lip, lowered her head to drink porridge, and stopped talking.
After a while, Jian Pei and Qiao Yun sat at the dining table and started to have breakfast, Qiao Du had almost eaten, she picked up a napkin and wiped her lips, said "slow use", and went upstairs first.
Soon she came down again, with a coat over her body and a purse in her hand, as if she was going to go out.
Qiao Yun stretched his neck and stopped her: "Eldest sister, where are you going?" Would you like to bring me with you? ”
"Yun'er." As soon as Jian Pei heard that her baby son was going to follow Qiao Dui, her psychological shadow instantly came up, and she bluffed and shouted: "No, you can't go with her!" ”
"Mom, I'm thirteen years old, I'll be fourteen after the New Year, I'm not a child, even if I get lost, I'll recognize home." Qiao Yun has reached the age of development, and it is also the age of rebellion, often adults don't let him do anything, he just wants to do something.
"But ......" Jian Pei was still not at ease.
"Okay, that's it, big sister, let's go." Qiao Yun threw down Jian Pei and pulled Qiao Du out of Qiao's house quickly.
Jian Pei hurriedly called the driver at home to hurry up.
The driver drove out of Qiao's house, and there was still the shadow of the sister and brother on the road, so he had to go back to recover his life.
Jian Pei stomped her feet in the room, and at this moment, there was the sound of a sports car outside, Qiao Xinyi came back with a spring breeze on her face, and wrapped her arms around Jian Pei affectionately: "Mom, why are you so angry?" What about Yun'er? ”
"Don't mention it, I was taken away by Qiao Dui's brute." Jian Pei was angry and angry.
"Mom, don't be angry." Qiao Xinyi patted Jian Pei's back considerately and gently, "Yun'er is older, Qiao Duan doesn't dare to attack him again, you can rest assured." ”
Jian Pei had her daughter's comfort, patted her chest and breathed a lot easier, and then she was looking at Qiao Xinyi: "Qiao's business is done?" ”
"That's it." Qiao Xinyi continued to play a good daughter obediently, and helped Jian Pei to sit down on the chair, "Those people on the board of directors are very optimistic about me, and this is also thanks to your support, if you hadn't recorded a video and I showed it to them, they wouldn't have elected me as CEO so quickly." ”
"Or do you have a conscience and know how to be grateful." Jian Pei was angry and pointed to the door: "Look at your brother, I have believed in Qiao Dui's brute since he was a child, he has suffered so many years outside, and he doesn't have a long memory, and when he comes back, he still goes to that brute, I don't know what to say about him, if he is half as filial and sensible and obedient as you, will I hide outside for so long and not come back?" ”
Qiao Xinyi flattered quietly: "Yes, Mom, Yun'er's adoptive mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp, it is inconvenient for you to come forward again, do you want me to come forward and send her away, and never suffer in the future?" ”
When Jian Pei heard this, he waved his hand: "Forget it, let's look at it again, Yun'er is older, not so easy to coax when he was a child, he is still thinking about that poor woman in his heart, if he does too much, he will definitely be angry, and finally get him back, I don't want to make the mother-son relationship between me and him too stiff." ”
"Oh, okay, listen to you." Qiao Xinyi agreed in her mouth, but she was sneering in her heart, don't you want to stiffen the relationship between mother and son? It's not as you like, wait and see, I'll let you know what it means to have a completely stiff relationship between mother and son.
-
As soon as Qiao Du and Qiao Yun walked out of Qiao's house, a Rolls-Royce drove over from under a tree in the distance, and the driver opened the rear door and said, "Miss Qiao, please." ”
Qiao Yun's eyes widened, and after getting into the car, he asked her, "Sister, whose car is this?" It looks better than all the cars in the Qiao family. ”
After returning to Qiao's house for a while, Qiao Yun was familiar with it, and he could also see at a glance which ones were good and which ones were expensive.
Qiao Du smiled casually and lied: "The company gave me the car." ”
"I know, I've seen the news, you signed a contract with Hanhuang Entertainment, which is a big company." Qiao Yun is full of envy for Qiao Dui's star life: "Eldest sister, you are much more famous than Qiao Xinyi, I have been on vacation with my mother these days, and I can see the advertising posters endorsed by you everywhere, as well as the TV series you starred in, I have watched all the episodes with my tablet, it is so good-looking, eldest sister, you acted so well." ”
Qiao Du laughed and changed the subject: "Yun'er, have you studied in the past few years?" ”
Qiao Yun lowered his head: "No, my adoptive mother said that I don't have a hukou, I can't go to nine-year compulsory education, she can't read, I can only read books by myself occasionally." ”
Qiao Du was sad for a while, touched his head and said, "It's okay, you're back now, let your mother give you Zhang Luo's school another day." ”
"I don't want to go." Qiao Yun shook his head.
"Why? Afraid that your classmates will laugh at you? Qiao Du saw his thoughts, he had just entered the second grade when he left, and if he was normally in the second year of junior high school.
"Hmm." Qiao Yun lowered his head and played with his fingers.
This is indeed a problem, if he goes back to school, at least from the second grade of primary school, if you look at it this way, he will become the same grade as Fu Chengrui.
"Miss Joe." The driver spoke in front of him: "Where are you going?" If I'm not busy, I'm going to deliver something to Mr. Fu. ”
"What to send?" Qiao Du was a little strange: "Isn't he in Liuliwan?" ”
"No, Mr. Fu is still in Dongcheng Group." The driver replied: "Mr. Fu didn't go back last night, Uncle Jiang called this morning and said that Mr. Fu was sick, and he had boiled old hen soup in the kitchen and asked him to send it over." ”
Yes?
Qiao Du was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Then you hurry up." ”
"Then Master Qiao......" The driver hesitated.
Qiao Yun was a little curious about the title "Mr. Fu" in his heart, but he still said with interest: "Sister, the front is where I want to go, just put me at the crossroads." ”
Qiao Du glanced at the old town ahead, with its dilapidated houses, narrow, damp streets, and chaotic flow of people.
This is the most chaotic place in Licheng, and Qiao Duan never dared to live here when he was most impoverished.
Qiao Du said worriedly, "Yun'er, your own mother lives here?" ”
"Yes." Qiao Yun said without reservation: "Brother Yun Shen arranged a place for us to live when he took us back, my adoptive mother was not used to living here, so she moved here, she said that it was comfortable to live here." ”
"It's not safe here."
"No, sister, you don't know if you haven't lived, the neighbors here are good, although there are occasional people with unclean hands and feet, but overall it's quite safe." Qiao Yun likes it very much.
Qiao Du nodded, "Do you have a mobile phone?" Call me for something. ”
"Yes." Qiao Yun took out the latest iphonex that Jian Pei bought for him, he had been familiar with this smartphone for a while now, and casually reported his number to Qiao Dui.
After Qiao Du wrote it down, she watched Qiao Yun get out of the car, if it weren't for the fact that she remembered Fu Jingchao's body, she would have liked to go down and take a look.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Rolls-Royce drove into the underground parking lot of the East Side Group, and when Qiao Du got out of the car, he saw the Maybach in the parking space next to it.
She wrapped her scarf, put on a mask, and took the elevator to the top floor.
In a hurry to see him, she took the wrong elevator, it was the rush hour at work, she entered the elevator and rose to the first floor to stop, and many Dongcheng Group employees who were in a hurry to go to work poured in outside.
On a cold day, turning a scarf is nothing, the key is that Qiao Du still has sunglasses on her face, and when she sees so many people, she desperately hides in the corner.
Many people have noticed the difference in Qiao Dui.
Looking at the buttons on the elevator again, it was actually the top floor, and suddenly everyone's expressions were as if they had discovered a new continent.
Everyone has seen several secretaries in the president's office, this girl is not wearing professional clothes, a pink tweed coat with boots, and a pair of long legs are perfectly displayed, young and fashionable.
Is this Mr. Fu's new love?
Many people immediately thought of the most scandalous object uploaded on the Internet - the newcomer of the Han Emperor, Bai Yan.
Qiao Du hid for a long time, and finally hid until everyone went out.
The elevator was empty, the air was fresh, she breathed a sigh of relief, and watched the elevator go straight to the top floor, wondering how he was sick and whether he had seen a doctor.
The elevator opened, and she hurried out.
There was a knock on the door, and a cold voice came from inside: "Come in." ”
She pushed the door open and entered, and the man behind the desk was putting on a blazer with one hand.
"I'll help you." She hurriedly put the insulated box in her hand to the corner of the desk, walked over and reached out to put his sleeve on.
Fu Jingchao stared at her, cooperating with her movements, with a shallow smile on his face: "Why are you here?" ”
"Do you have a woman hiding here? Can't I come? She dressed him and tilted her head to look at him.
"Poof." He lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek, teasing: "There is indeed a woman hidden, and she is still a little woman covered in vinegar." ”
Qiao Dui didn't dodge her head sideways, her waist was held by him, her powerful palm was supported on her waist, and her thin lips came up again.
He smiled with his eyes, afraid of infecting her with a cold, so he didn't kiss her mouth, but pecked her eyes, nose, eyebrows, and forehead one by one, teasing her, like an addiction.
Qiao Du pressed his face with both hands, stopped him from kissing her, and said softly, "Don't make trouble." ”
His thin lips hooked lightly, and he whispered: "Then I'll let you help me take it off, and you let me kiss it, it's irrelevant." ”
This man is really easy to change, and his nature is difficult to change.
Qiao Du didn't want to pay attention to him, but thinking that he was not feeling well, he hurriedly touched his forehead: "How do you feel?" ”
"What did the driver tell you?"
She touched his forehead, it was indeed a little hot, no wonder the driver brought the old hen soup.
"The kitchen boiled old hen soup to cure your cold, I brought it, and I brought it to you right away." Qiao Du hurriedly walked over, opened the thermos, and handed him the steaming soup.
Fu Jingchao looked at her with a smile in his eyes: "I knew that I was so sick so well, I should have told you last night." ”
"Okay, why do you catch a cold?" Qiao Du felt that the chicken soup was a little hot, and asked him while blowing it cold.
"No one covered me at night." The man spoke in a tone like a puppy that no one wants.
Qiao Dui: "......"
Her little hand was pulled over by the man and rubbed on Jun's face: "Has anyone covered me with a quilt tonight, huh?" ”
Qiao Du was afraid of him, and said angrily and funny: "Yes, but I am going to Donglin Satellite TV to record the Spring Festival Gala today, and I may have to go back very late, do you want to wait for me?" ”
"I'll wait for you for as long as I want." As soon as he heard that she could finally return to Liuliwan, he instantly kissed her palm several times.
The chicken soup was finally not hot, she served it to him, he put the chicken soup on the desk, pulled her to sit on his lap, and hugged her before he was willing to drink it.
Fu Jingchao put down the empty insulated box, Qiao Duan picked up the lid and covered it, and put it back into the delicate and small insulated bag.
"Did you stay here last night?" She looked at him as if he was still wearing yesterday's shirt and blazer.
Fu Jingchao lowered his eyes and looked at her, snorted and said, "You're not here, it's not interesting for me to go back, and I'm busy at the end of the year, so I'll just spend the night in the office." ”
"Okay, I also said that I smelled vinegar, and I felt sour in your complaining tone." Qiao Du smiled coquettishly and hugged his waist: "You should have heard about Qiao Yuanjing?" ”
The private hospital is his territory, how can he not know the truth when there is a wind and grass, even if the Qiao family wants to hide it from the world, it will definitely not be able to hide it from him.
"Hmm." Fu Jingchao looked at the little girl who took the initiative to hug him in his arms, and said softly: "What did Qiao Yuanjing tell you?" ”
In front of him, she did not hide this secret: "He said that he wanted to transfer all the shares in his hand to me, and asked me to come forward to reconvene the board of directors and drive Qiao Xinyi down." ”
Fu Jingchao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "You didn't agree?" ”
"How do you know?"
"If you say yes, you won't look like you're tangled and don't know what to do." He smirked and smoothed her frown with his fingers.
It turned out that her expression betrayed her.
Qiao Du lowered her eyelashes and asked him later, "Grandma also talked to me last night, do you think I should agree?" ”
Fu Jingchao rested one hand on the office desktop, and tapped his fingers twice: "You decide your own affairs, I will not participate." ”
Qiao Du lowered his little face, sighed, buried his face in his chest, listened to his powerful heartbeat, and said to himself: "It's really tangled, logically speaking, I should nod, but I have no clue about business, it is a new and strange environment for me, I am really useless except acting." Qiao's Group is not a small company, with so many employees, so many directors, so many pairs of eyes and so many mouths waiting to be fed, my head is big when I think about it. ”
"I have a solution, do you want to listen?"
"What?"
"You can hire a professional manager."
It turned out to be this.
Qiao Du was even more weak: "I proposed to invite professional managers, but they disagreed, saying that outsiders could not be trusted...... If I have to take care of it, how can I be, it will be almost as good as a joke when the time comes. ”
"You can't give up your acting career, can you?" He lifted her jaw awkwardly.
"Well, reluctantly." Qiao Du took a breath: "I really like acting, I enjoy the process of creating plump three-dimensional characters, enjoy the satisfaction of entering the soul of another character and bringing them to life, I admit it, I like flowers, I like applause, I like to be affirmed for my acting skills, do you think I'm vain?" ”
"Vanity can't be talked about." Fu Jingchao's eyes were soft, and his magnetic and calm voice said: "Everyone likes to be affirmed by others when they do things, and no one likes to be denied by others. You're young, and that's not wrong. ”
Hearing him say this, she felt better, nestled in his arms, raised her face to look at him slightly, and stroked his angular handsome face with her little hand: "I suddenly feel that you are so charming, mature and stable, and you can boil chicken soup for the soul, is this the legendary uncle?" ”
Fu Jingchao raised his lips, lowered his head and gestured to bite her nose, and said fiercely: "Dare to dislike me again?" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." She laughed and avoided him, writhing around his lap.
Fu Jingchao's eyes contracted, the whole person was not good, he hummed and pressed her in his arms, and his handsome face was buried in her neck and rubbed around.
In his arms, she was dizzy and intoxicated, and she only remembered that the man's lips were hot and hot, and that when he occasionally raised his head, those deep black eyes stared at her as if they would bewitch people.
There was a knock on the door, and Qiao Twilight somehow broke free from his arms, and she fled to the sofa, sat in the corner, and heard his voice, "Come in." ”
There was a sound of high heels, a respectful voice from the secretary Bai He asking him to sign, followed by the sound of papers being opened, and after a while, the office was quiet again.
Before she could get up from the sofa, a familiar masculine aura approached behind her, her shoulders were pressed by him, and her voice overflowed above her head: "What time do you go to the TV station in the afternoon?" ”
There was heating in the office, and she took off her coat and wore only a sweater, but she could still feel the burning palm of his hand, and said, "Forget it, I'm not going." ”
"Why don't you go?"
"You have a fever and I want to stay and take care of you."
Fu Jingchao pressed her shoulder, sat around the sofa and hugged her, "Have you signed a contract yet?" You have to do what you promise to others, you have to lose money, you have a big reputation, and the same is true for doing business, it's just a cold, I'm fine. ”
The amount of information in his words was a bit large, as if he was teaching her to do business.
Qiao Du thought about it, what he said made sense, nodded and said, "You really don't want me to accompany you?" ”
"Not yet." He thought it was funny and scraped the tip of her nose with his fingers: "Love has to be talked about, and career has to be taken into account, this is the Qiao Du I know." ”
He knew her well.
Qiao Dui pursed her lips warmly, leaned over and kissed him twice on the face.
The two hugged each other to enjoy this rare warm moment, and no one spoke for a while, and silence was better than sound at this time.
In the middle of the night, he kissed the top of her hair, "Continuing the topic of yesterday in the hospital." ”
"What?"
"You don't want to know who Rui'er's real mother is?"
She paused for a few seconds and exhaled softly, "I don't want to." ”
"Why?"
"I don't want to." She fiddled with the buttons on his blazer with her fingers and said in a relaxed tone, "It's like you don't ask about my past, do you?" ”
This sentence taught him to be silent, and he wanted to ask her back, what if he asked her about her past?
Then he sighed silently and gave up.
Qiao Du leaned on his arms, suddenly thought of another question, and looked up at him: "Is there any latest progress in Qiao Yuanjing's car accident?" ”
"Yes." He said lightly: "Behind the scenes, it may be done by foreign gangs." ”
"Offshore gangs?" She was inexplicable: "What overseas gang?" ”
Fu Jingchao didn't know where to start, and said succinctly: "It's an overseas drug trafficking organization that has worked closely with the Sansi Society for many years. ”
"How so?" Qiao Du was incredulous: "Why did they deal with Qiao Yuanjing, he is a businessman and can't contact them at all, why did they cause a car accident?" ”
"You can reason backwards, Qiao Yuanjing was in a car accident, who is the biggest beneficiary?" He unhurriedly reminded her.
She said without thinking: "Of course it's Qiao Xinyi, she was afraid that Qiao Yun would say in front of Qiao Yuanjing that she had abducted him, and after Qiao Yuanjing's accident, Qiao Yun changed his mind and said that he was lost back then." As she spoke, she suddenly gasped: "Could it be ...... Qiao Xinyi is related to this overseas drug trafficking organization? ”
