Sent Tong Shuyi back to Zongyuan Huafu, and Qiao Xiang drove back to Renhe Community.

Tong Shuyi wanted to keep her at home for the night, but tonight Qiao Xiang remembered those past events, and her mood became very depressed, she didn't want her parents to see her like this.

Xu Hui will only be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and Qiao Xiang will be alone again tonight.

After taking a shower, I snuggled up on the sofa and turned on the TV, but I was staring at the ceiling in a daze.

All kinds of things in the past, like a marquee, flickered in front of me, and the things that happened between him and Yan Ruisen six years ago, now I think about it, it is so clear.

At that time, she loved him so much that she would rather hide and suffer alone than question him—what was the point of questioning if there was no outcome between them, it would only make the relationship end more embarrassing.

Qiao Xiang didn't want to be embarrassed, and if he wanted it to end, he would end it quietly.

At most, they will never see each other again, he will get married, and she will get married.

It's just that I didn't expect that she was pregnant.

They have always been very careful, even if she is in the safe period, they have made him take measures, no matter how much they think, they can't remember when they had a child.

Yan Ruisen did say that he would marry her and ask her to give him a child, but since that woman appeared, those former promises have become so fragmented and nihilistic.

Qiao Xiang left Yan Ruisen's home in New York, and did not take anything that belonged to him, and she did not ask for the bank card, jewelry, or even the clothes he bought for her.

Qiao Xiang rented a house in Chinatown, went to work in a Chinese restaurant during the day, and read books and DVDs at night to pass the time.

It's not that she hasn't been betrayed, Sun Simian leaves her, she can fall in love with Yan Ruisen, and without Yan Ruisen, she can also fall in love with others.

She was so confident that she would forget him.

The following month after leaving Yan Ruisen, she fainted in a Chinese restaurant, and the proprietress took her to the hospital, where the doctor told her that she was pregnant.

Qiao Xiang was shocked, but quickly accepted this fact.

She is not yet twenty years old, but she already has children.

She spent the night thinking about her future life — she wanted the child.

Qiao Xiang was abandoned when he was born, and then picked up by Tong Shuyi, who had just lost her first child in the same hospital.

She was taken back to Qiao's house and named Qiao Xiang, which became the pearl of the Qiao family and the biggest secret of the Qiao family.

No one knew that Tong Shuyi and Qiao Yingcheng's child died just after birth, and no one knew that the swaddling clothes that were deliberately placed at the door of Tong Shuyi's delivery room replaced their dead child, and it was this little baby that made Tong Shuyi get out of the pain of losing her daughter.

Later, Tong Shuyi and Qiao Yingcheng had a second daughter, Qiao Yue, but they only cared for and loved Qiao Xiang a lot, and always regarded her as their own, if it weren't for Qiao Yingcheng getting drunk and mentioning Qiao Xiang's life experience to Tong Shuyi in the room that night, Qiao Xiang would not have run away from home at all.

At that time, Sun Simian had just broken up with Qiao Xiang and Yu Suyan and got together, Qiao Xiang was already hit hard by the betrayal of her boyfriend and best friend, and suddenly learned that she was an abandoned baby, her world completely collapsed, and no one wanted to see her again, she just wanted to hide alone.

So she went to the United States.

So she met Yan Ruisen.

With a child, she was very dazed and hesitant, but when she remembered her life experience and touched her abdomen, she decided to give birth to this child.

I can't deceive myself, but I love him.

Such an exact love is incomparable to Sun Simian, a childhood sweetheart, who hates him and resents him, in the final analysis, he just can't forget him.

If you can't get him, then keep his children.

Qiao Xiang is short of money, so she won't call the Qiao family again, she works in a Chinese restaurant during the day, and she has to tutor white children at night, she is desperate to make money, and wants the baby to eat better and dress warmer when she is born.

But Qiao Xiang, a Chinese, where can he give birth to a child in a hospital in the United States. Seeing that the due date was getting closer and closer, she had no choice, so she went to the proprietress of a Chinese restaurant and begged her to find a way to get her an American hukou.

The proprietress didn't have the ability to call for wind and rain, but she was a real person, and felt that Qiao Xiang was pitiful, so she managed to contact a staff member who worked in the consulate and handed over Qiao Xiang's information to him.

It also happened that the staff of this consulate was the younger brother of Qiao Yingcheng's friend, and as soon as he saw Qiao Xiang's information, he called China to inform the Qiao family and his wife, telling them that your daughter has a whereabouts.

Tong Shuyi and Qiao Yingcheng looked for their daughter for more than a year, and finally got the news, Tong Shuyi immediately bought the earliest ticket to New York, and didn't even take a piece of luggage.

When I found Qiao Xiang, Qiao Xiang was serving dishes in a Chinese restaurant, and Tong Shuyi looked at her daughter holding it in the palm of her hand as a waitress here, and she cried out in front of so many guests.

At that time, Qiao Xiang was already seven months pregnant, because she was petite, wearing spacious clothes, and her bulging abdomen couldn't be seen if she didn't look carefully.

When Tong Shuyi learned that Qiao Xiang was pregnant and was going to give birth to that child, she hit her for the first time in 20 years.

Qiao Xiang, you are so confused!

Are you going to me and your dad to death! 
You tell me who he is, I'll go find him!

Xiangxiang, you will hurt yourself!

The mother and daughter burst into tears.

Qiao Xiang's stubbornness made Tong Shuyi helpless, and a few days later, Tong Shuyi contacted the hospital, called a few trustworthy bodyguards from China, and got Qiao Xiang to the hospital.

It was October 9th.

On October 9, 2011, Qiao Xiang was lying on the cold operating table and was given anesthetic, but she felt so clearly that her child was peeling off from her body little by little......

Two months later, Qiao Xiang was discharged from the hospital, and Tong Shuyi arranged a helicopter to take her home directly.

Qiao Xiang returned to Qiao's house and continued to be the eldest lady of the Qiao family, the daughter of Qiao Yingcheng and his wife, and Qiao Yue's sister.

Everything seems to be back to the beginning, the first tranquility, the initial stability.

Only Qiao Xiang knew that when the child died, she had already died once, and her relationship with Yan Ruisen was completely dead on that cloudy morning in New York.

……

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

This morning, Yan Jianan arrived at school relatively early. When I arrived at the classroom, the teacher and aunt were taking care of the other children for breakfast.

Yan Jianan usually comes back after eating at home, and Aunt Lin will cook a lot of delicious food for him at home, but the school cannot.

But the tuition fee includes two meals and a little bit, and Yan Jianan never comes to school for breakfast, which is too wasteful.

The children arrived at the classroom one after another, and Yan Jianan sat in the corner of the book to read, holding a book of dinosaur world in his hand and watching it with relish.

Qiao Xiang walked over and rubbed him when he was free, "What did Aunt Lin do for you in the morning?" ”

"Bacon Sandwich."

Yan Jianan replied, without raising his head, focusing on the book.

Qiao Xiang glanced at the dinosaur world and asked, "Does Canaan like dinosaurs very much?" ”

There was a big box of dinosaur models in his bedroom, which were his treasures, and he showed them in front of Qiao Xiang.

"yes, dinosaurs are cool, my dad bought me a lot of them."

There are quite a lot, and there are still a few boxes at home in New York, all of which he has collected in the past five years.

Qiao Xiang smiled and touched his head, and whispered, "Then I'll take you to buy dinosaurs another day." ”

Yan Jianan finally raised her head and smiled, "Thank you, stepmother." ”

“……”

Qiao Xiang frowned and glared at him, turned around to leave, Yan Jianan immediately grabbed her, "Xiangxiang, my dad came back early tonight." ”

"So fast? Isn't it tomorrow? ”

"I just spoke to him on the phone last night, and the matter is done, of course I have to come back early."

After Yan Jianan finished speaking, he went to read other books, and Qiao Xiang stood in place in a trance.

The last time I contacted him was a week ago, and he hadn't looked for her for a whole week, Qiao Xiang didn't know if he was too busy, or if he was also waiting for her to take the initiative to contact him.

But Qiao Xiang couldn't help it, even though she couldn't deny that she missed him a little, she still didn't call him.

Because Qiao Xiang didn't know what the two of them were now.

After school in the afternoon, when Aunt Lin came to pick up Yan Jianan, she also told Qiao Xiang that Mr. Yan would return to Huicheng tonight.

Qiao Xiang just smiled and nodded, indicating that she already knew.

After leaving school, Qiao Xiang went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables, went back to make two dishes and one soup, and waited for Xu Hui to come back from work to eat together.

After learning that Yan Ruisen was coming back today in the morning, Qiao Xiang was a little absent-minded all day, looking at his phone more than once, for fear of missing his phone or message.

However, from day to night, more than ten hours passed, and Yan Ruisen was no longer looking for her.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Qiao Xiang and Xu Hui were sitting in the living room watching TV.

Xu Hui swallowed melon seeds and chatted with Qiao Xiang about her work. Xu Hui is a very good girl, after graduating from university, she worked in Huicheng Evening News, in three years, from a small intern, she has become the deputy editor-in-chief of the B version, and she is about to be promoted to editor-in-chief, another colleague in the same position with her is too strong, and everything suppresses Xu Hui, competing with Xu Hui for the position of editor-in-chief, which makes Xu Hui very stressed.

"My ability is stronger than her, and I still have this self-confidence, but she was lucky enough to interview swimming champion Pan Lingling at the beginning of this year, and that manuscript has now become a model for our newspaper."

"No matter what line of work, the ability alone is not necessarily useful, or it depends on the right time and place - I am more unlucky, at the end of last year, I had the opportunity to interview Wei Guangzhi, the king of Rongcheng plastics, but that day Wei Guangzhi's secretary called me, saying that Wei Guangzhi's son broke his leg skiing in Switzerland, and the family rushed to Switzerland, so I watched the opportunity slip away in front of me."

Xu Hui sighed as she spoke, and put her hand on Qiao Xiang's leg, "To be honest, I really want to interview Yan Ruisen, if I can do his interview, it will be a hard win, but you are not willing to help me." ”

Qiao Xiang blinked his eyes, "I didn't want to help you, I can't take care of Yan Ruisen's affairs, and I and him are not as good as you think." ”
