Qiao Ran asked very directly and eagerly, she wanted to know the result of this matter too much.

Pei Hao didn't hide it from her, explaining: "Actually, you look very similar to my mother. ”

took out a yellowed old photo from the inner pocket of the suit and handed it to Qiao Ran, Pei Hao said, "This is a photo of grandpa and mother." ”

Qiao Ran took it and looked at it through the lights in the car, sure enough.

Although the photo is very old because of the long years, the facial features of the woman above are indeed very similar to herself.

"The first time I saw you, I thought you might be my sister, but there are too many people in this world who look like you, I'm not sure, so it's just ......" he coughed dryly, as if a little embarrassed, "just approaching you to find out who you are." ”

Qiao Ran held the old photo in her hand, and suddenly recalled a lot of things.

Turning her head to look at Pei Hao, she asked again: "So you want to see my mother that day, is it also because of this?" ”

Pei Hao nodded, "With all due respect, Ms. Qiao is not your biological mother, and you don't look like each other at all." ”

Qiao Ran disagreed, "My mother said I looked like my father." ”

How could she not know about the problem of looks? She has asked since she was a child, and Qiao Pingping told her, and she has never doubted it all these years.

Pei Hao didn't refute it, and said step by step: "It's not impossible, but I just asked two questions casually that day, and Ms. Qiao was very resistant." ”

After a pause, he added: "She is even more resistant to my surname, so I think she should know about your relationship with the Pei family." ”

As soon as he said this, Qiao Ran didn't know how to refute it for a while.

After all, after going back that day, Qiao Pingping's reaction was really too big, and she made up nonsense, saying that Pei Hao was rude to her, and she didn't even allow Qiao Ran to help Pei Hao speak.

Now that I think about it, Pei Hao's words may be true...... In other words, she is really Pei Lao's granddaughter, and Qiao Pingping knows all this, but she doesn't want her to have any contact with the Pei family.

My heart suddenly felt like I had knocked over the seasoning jar, so messy.

Qiao Ran frowned and looked at the photo in her hand again.

That man...... Is it really your own mother? So do she and Qiao Pingping know each other? What happened back then?

Her mind was very messy, and before she could figure out a clue, her mobile phone rang first, and she took out her mobile phone to see that it was Qiao Pingping's phone.

Thinking that Qiao Pingping saw that she hadn't gone back so late, and was worried about herself, Qiao Ran immediately picked up the phone: "Mom, I'm on the way ......"

Before the word "finished", a man's voice came from the mobile phone: "Girl, come to the bar to pick up your mother, she is drunk, and she is still here, I want to do business!" ”

Qiao Ran: "......"

Drunk again!

Before she went out, she told her not to go to the bar!

But after all, it's her own mother, what can she do?

In desperation, Qiao Ran had no choice but to ask the other party for the address and the name of the bar, and asked Pei Hao to send him over.

Pei Hao didn't mind at all, and drove Qiao Ran to Bar Street.

When they found Qiao Pingping in the bar, Qiao Pingping was lying on the bar and talking nonsense, Qiao Ran shouted at her several times but she didn't hear it, just kept urging the bartender to mix wine for her.

The bartender naturally didn't mix drinks for her, but shrugged his shoulders towards Qiao Ran, his face full of helplessness.

Qiao Ran was very irritable and pushed Qiao Pingping's shoulder, "Mom! Let's go, we're home! ”

The bartender had already handed over the bill at this time, and Pei Hao didn't let Qiao Ran take care of it, so he took the bill and paid the money.

After putting the wallet away, Pei Hao gently patted Qiao Ran's arm, "I'll come." ”

He is a man, and his strength is much greater than Qiao Ran, and Qiao Ran is still wearing a dress, which is really inconvenient.

So Qiao Ran was not polite, only said "It's troublesome", and handed Qiao Pingping over to Pei Hao.

Pei Hao carried Qiao Pingping out of the bar and put the person in the back seat of the car, and Qiao Ran also sat in the back seat.

On the way back, no one spoke again.

After helping Qiao Ran send Qiao Pingping home, Pei Hao watched Qiao Ran keep going in and out to take care of Qiao Pingping, and pursed the corners of his lips.

When Qiao Ran finally got free and poured him a glass of water, he saw that Qiao Ran was so busy that he didn't even bother to change the clothes on his body, and finally said that sentence: "Qiao Ran, you can go back to Pei's house with me, it is more suitable for you." ”

Although Qiao Pingping is drunk today, she doesn't talk as much as usual, on the contrary, she is very quiet, Qiao Ran has been busy taking care of her before, scrubbing and changing her clothes, and she has forgotten about the Pei family for the time being, but she didn't expect that at this time, Pei Hao mentioned it again.

She doesn't know anything about the Pei family, and she can't talk about any feelings, she only knows that her mother is Qiao Pingping, and they have been dependent on each other for 20 years.

"Mr. Pei," Qiao Ran hung her head, but she even changed her name to Pei Hao, "This matter, maybe it's really your mistake, I only have one mother, my mother is Qiao Pingping, and she is drunk now." ”

Pei Hao frowned, "But the conditions here ......"

"I'm used to it." Qiao Ran raised her head, but there was no too bright light in her beautiful eyes.

She looked at Pei Hao and smiled slightly, "It's not early, you should go back too, if you stay any longer, I'm afraid it's not convenient." ”

Although this was said politely, Pei Hao could also hear that this was Qiao Ran's eviction order.

Although he was a little unwilling, since Qiao Ran said so, and he also felt that Qiao Ran should be given some time first, he didn't force it anymore.

After leaving Qiao Ran's house, Pei Hao went to the old mansion.

Although the two had not agreed, Pei Lao waited for him in the living room as if he knew that Pei Hao would come over.

Pei Hao kept his eyes closed, although he was old, his hearing was fine, and when he heard the movement at the door, he didn't open his eyes, but just asked, "Are you back?" ”

Pei Hao answered and went to Pei Lao's face, but did not sit down, but bowed deeply, "Grandpa, I'm sorry." ”

He should have told Pei Lao about Qiao Ran earlier, but it has been delayed until now.

Pei Lao didn't blame him.

Slowly opened his eyes and stared at Pei Hao for a long time, Pei Lao took his arm, let him sit beside him, and asked him, "Did you send Ran Ran back?" ”

Pei Hao's hand pulled his suit pants, looking at the kindness in Pei Lao's eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it, just nodded, "Well, send it back." ”

Pei Lao nodded, as if relieved.

Neither of the grandparents spoke.

After a long while, Pei Lao asked, "Since you knew her before, you should know something about her, right?" Tell me, how is she doing? ”

Judging from Qiao Ran's performance in the banquet hall today, Qiao Ran was somewhat wary of him, so he wasn't sure if Qiao Ran was telling him the truth.

It's better to confirm with Pei Hao.

Pei Hao then said, 1510, and told Pei Lao everything he knew.

On the other side, Qiao Ran had almost never slept all night, and had been guarding Qiao Pingping all the time.

This is not entirely because she is worried about Qiao Pingping, after all, after so many years, she has seen Qiao Pingping drunk many times, and she can't count it.

At first, she felt uncomfortable, and sometimes she even got angry, and she would always stay by Qiao Pingping's side to take care of her, but after many times, she got used to it, and she would sleep by herself after wiping Qiao Pingping.

Anyway, Qiao Pingping is an adult, and she is at home, so nothing will happen to her, so she has nothing to worry about.

Tonight is different, though.

She suddenly knew a lot of things, knew that she was probably not Qiao Pingping's biological daughter, and knew that her grandfather might be the chairman of the Pei family, the head of the Pei family, and Pei Hao......

She had regretted it before, although she called Pei Hao her brother, but in the end she was not her own brother, she still thought that it would be good if she could really have a brother.

But she didn't expect that Pei Hao was really her brother.

Although she didn't want to admit it, and she didn't know what was going on back then, she had to say that Pei Hao's words also made sense, as well as the old photo......

Qiao Ran looked at Qiao Pingping, who was sleeping quietly on the bed, looked at the big open face, and held her face with both hands and rubbed it vigorously.

When it was almost dawn, Qiao Pingping woke up in a daze.

The light in the room was not turned off, and she felt that her eyes were shaking, so she did not open them immediately, but stretched out a hand to block her eyes, and after a while of getting used to it, she took it away.

But as soon as she took her hand away, she was stunned.

Qiao Ran sat on the edge of the bed, leaning on the bedside table with one hand on her forehead, frowning slightly, as if she had fallen asleep like this.

"Ran?" Qiao Pingping sat up and gently pushed Qiao Ran's shoulder.

Qiao Ran was already asleep, but when Qiao Pingping pushed her like this, she woke up immediately.

"Are you awake?" looked at Qiao Pingping, Qiao Ran handed her the water that had been poured a long time ago.

Qiao Pingping took it, took a sip of the cup in both hands, and peeked at Qiao Ran while drinking, seemingly a little worried and a little scared.

The worry is that Qiao Ran is worried that she has not rested well, and she is afraid that Qiao Ran will scold her.

But after waiting for a while, Qiao Ran didn't speak, Qiao Pingping felt a little guilty and a little uneasy, and asked Qiao Ran: "Ranran, you slept like this all night?" ”

"It's okay, I'm not tired." Qiao Ran replied casually, pondered for a while, and asked the words that had been hovering in her heart for hours, "Mom, what kind of person is my dad?" ”

didn't expect Qiao Ran to ask such a question, Qiao Pingping was stunned, immediately lowered her eyes, didn't look at her anymore, and her voice was pitiful: "Why are you asking this?" ”

"I saw a guy at the banquet last night." Qiao Ran didn't want to hide it from Qiao Pingping, so she said the truth, "That person said that I am his granddaughter." ”

As soon as she heard the words "granddaughter", Qiao Pingping's hand let go, and the cup in her hand fell on the quilt.

Fortunately, the water in it had been drunk by her, otherwise the quilt would have been wet.

Picking up the cup in a hurry, Qiao Pingping laughed dryly, "How is it possible?" My dad is long dead......"

"That person's surname is Pei." Qiao Ran said as she carefully observed Qiao Pingping's reaction.
