Chapter 54
After speaking, Luo Chu was like a ball that was deflated all of a sudden, and the whole person collapsed.
If there were some children's willful nonsense just now, now it has dropped to the freezing point, and no one is allowed to approach.
"Mr. Luo, the driver is here, I'll send you back." The secretary saw a car parked outside the courtyard not far away, and whether he saw it or not, whether it was his car or not, took it away first.
We can't afford to lose face any longer.
Nan Qiao watched the two get into the car and walked away completely, before he withdrew his gaze, and when he turned his head, he met the gaze of Qi Rui, who was standing under the lamp and looking at him.
"Qi Rui?"
How long has he been standing? He saw it all just now?
"He, he's drunk." Nan Qiao was a little nervous, like a weak explanation, and he could only say that he was drunk, was he really drunk! Didn't lie!
Qi Rui frowned, "His alcohol consumption has always been very good. Approaching Nan Qiao, he picked up the coat that had fallen to the ground and draped it on her shoulders again, and then he stretched his brows slightly, although his face was still cold.
So, he frowned and got angry just now, because he was afraid that he would catch a cold?
"Maybe I encountered something sad and remembered a sad person, so no matter how good the amount of alcohol is, it's useless," Nan Qiao seemed to be moved.
"I know."
Qi Rui's eyes were gray, "Today is that person's birthday, no accident, that is, the day she died, he should be sad." ”
Qi Rui is the same as Luo Chu, no matter how many years have passed, no matter how long has passed, when describing that girl, he will unconsciously avoid words like "death day" and "death", as if that person is just leaving, asleep, and still living in a corner of the world, and even avoids mentioning her name and mentioning those two words.
They know that they can't deceive others, so they start to deceive themselves, and in the end, the people around them can only deceive them gradually.
It's not just Luo Chu who is sad, but also him, and many people.
"It's getting late, I'll send you back." Every time "she" is mentioned, even if it is just one word, this man, even the excuse is very clumsy, "it's late", "tired......
"Okay." However, Nan Qiao got used to it.
Because it's not just her.
At the beginning, when she appeared beside Qi Rui in a high-profile manner, there were a lot of gossips.
Most of the media reported on some, "Cinderella counterattacked a high-class socialite", "entered the entertainment industry and entered the upper class", "Qi Shao is affectionate and obsessed with love", some are not, they are all watched, they are very general, the same, all are routines.
It's just that occasionally there will be some people who will associate her with the Miss Jiang family back then, especially, when someone calls her "Miss Qiao", instead of Miss Nan, or Miss Nan Qiao, and the three young men of the Qi family, who have the slightest involvement in the Miss Jiang family in their hearts, can shrink themselves The three young men of the Qi family, this time, there is no reaction after hearing it, it can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence to such an appearance and existence, this is Nan Qiao, so that more people notice the difference of Nan Qiao.
At the beginning, Jiang Qiao, also called Miss Qiao, was also known as "Miss Qiao".
Old lady Jiang named her "Joe", in addition to emulating the glamorous dignity of the ancients "Big and Small Joe".
"Joe", towering, arbor, housewarming, beautiful meaning, arbor family, that is, noble, and "proud", proud and noble, but, Joe, and pretend, pretend, but still does not affect its own meaning, beautiful and noble, proud and dazzling.
And Nan Qiao may be the negative meaning that is not considered.
Later, Nan Qiao starred as the heroine of the movie invested by Qi Rui and officially appeared in front of the public. Some people say that Nan Qiao's face, the facial features are very soft, especially the eyes, big and godly, rare and pure, but the whole is aggressive and plastic, some people say, but it is just a little drama, but fortunately, the topic is high and the box office is not bad.
Everyone compared Nan Qiao with the previous "Miss Qiao", but no one dared to mention the "Miss Qiao" casually, and only secretly discussed a few words behind their backs.
Everyone said that Qi Rui fell in love with her appearance, her name, and her resemblance, so he tolerated her temper, her habits, and her debauchery.
"Stop."
When the car was halfway through, Luo Chu, who was sitting in the back seat, opened his mouth, and his tone was calm and self-controlled, not at all like the man who was drunk just now.
"Mr. Luo?" The secretary sitting in the passenger seat, through the rearview mirror, looked at his president, still with his head down, this place is not easy to park.
"Stop."
The driver still found a place and listened to the car on the side of the road.
"Mr. Luo, what's wrong?" The secretary turned his head to look at the president he had followed for many years.
Today's Luo is really capricious and judgmental.
"Get out of the car." Luo Chu raised his head slightly, "Leave the car keys." It was a commanding tone, cold and unrefutable.
"Mr. Luo?" What's going on here?
"I'll get you out of the car." The tone was a little heavier, and he seemed a little impatient.
"Mr. Luo, you're drinking," the secretary persuaded him with good words, hoping to persuade him to come back, "Where are you going, the driver will send you the same." "A drunkard, just got drunk and went crazy, calmed down for a while, and now I still want to drag racing, big brother, the domestic drunk driving investigation is very strict, even if you just returned to China, you have to have a little basic common sense, the most caught to go to jail, when the time comes, I will make headlines, I have to go to prison to hand over the work to you.
However, it is of no avail.
"Die, will you come with you?" Luo Chu raised his head and looked at the secretary's gaze, deep and cold, but it seemed to be saying extremely flat words.
"Get out of the car." Obviously, Mr. Luo didn't want to explain too much, so he opened the car door, got out of the car, and walked to the driver's seat of the front door.
"Okay, Mr. Luo, take care of yourself." The driver was the first to get out of the car, leaving the keys in the car, looking like I couldn't mess with.
The secretary glanced at it uncomfortably, and then got out of the car.
Before he could stand still, the car started and drove away.
At eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, on the day of returning to China, the secretary and a driver who did not have a car could not stop shivering, but it was not entirely because of the cold.
The secretary faintly felt that in the city of Nancheng, he shouldn't have come back with his family Luo, or I should go to the airport, buy a plane ticket, and go back to the United States.
I forgot to mention that this secretary is called Wang Xizhou, and he is a key person.
"I'm here, thank you for sending me back, see you tomorrow."
Qi Rui drove Nan Qiao to the downstairs of Nan Qiao's community, because of the second half of the night, and it arrived quickly, and it was very quiet along the way, there were no people or even any vehicles.
"Okay, good night." Qi Rui smiled sideways at Nan Qiao.
"Good night."
Nan Qiao unbuckled his seat belt and was about to get out of the car with half the car door, "Aqiao,"
"Huh?" Nan Qiao turned his head, and the hair scattered on his shoulders was gently shaken, and was brushed aside by Nan Qiao.
"Don't grieve yourself,"
"Okay."
This is a sentence that Qi Rui often says to Nan Qiao, "Don't wronged yourself", and Nan Qiao told Qi Rui more than once, I am not wronged, really, not wronged.
Many times, Nan Qiao doesn't know where this grievance comes from, which makes people feel very wronged, and Nan Qiao doesn't know what it means to be wronged or what not to be wronged.
But Nan Qiao is undoubtedly lucky, and she will never wronged herself.
Qi Rui sat in the car and watched Nan Qiao's departing back, and did not drive away until he completely disappeared from his sight.
Qi Rui often picks up and drops off Nan Qiao, but he never gets out of the car, not once, always parks the car to the side, and he sits in the driver's seat, quietly waiting for Nan Qiao to get in the car and send Nan Qiao off.
"Nan Qiao,"
Nan Qiao entered the house, didn't plan to turn on the light, changed his shoes, and saw a figure sitting on the sofa, with his head down, his hands supporting his forehead, depressed and anxious.
"Why are you here?" Nan Qiao said very sparsely and ordinarily, but he walked towards the restaurant without caring about him, nor did he intend to entertain him, but just poured himself a glass of water and took a big sip.
She's really tired, tonight, especially tired.
"It's so late, where have you been? With the young master of the Qi family again? "Listening to the voice is a man, the tone and attitude are very forbearing, and he is also very impatient, probably waiting too long.
Nan Qiao didn't answer, which was a tacit acquiescence.
"Is something happening to Aunt Nan?"
Nan Qiao poured herself another glass of water.
"No, she's in the hospital, she's fine."
"With Sanshao's care, she will naturally be fine." That's how Nan Qiao replied.
Yes, with the care of the three young people of the Qi family, it is naturally good, and everything is convenient.
"Is there anything else?" Nan Qiao took a big sip of water, put the cup on the table, and said, "I'm tired, if it's okay, I'll go to rest, it's late, you can go back too." With that, he went to the back room, not intending to keep him.
No one turned on the lights in the room, it was always dark, but fortunately, there was a slight hint of light in the night outside, so I could still see some directions, and simply look at an outline.
When he was halfway there, he suddenly seemed to have something important, and turned his head and pointed to the table on the side, "There is some money on the table, which is considered living expenses, Aunt Nan is not in good health, buy her more things." "I didn't look at the people on the couch too much.
The man sitting on the sofa is called Nantian, and Nan Qiao's aunt who has been mentioned from the mouth after entering the door is Nantian's mother and Nan Qiao's adoptive mother.
was sick, had surgery a few years ago, and her health has not been particularly good, and now she is nursing in a nursing home, and she has been living in a nursing home, and Qi Rui entrusted someone to take care of her.
Over the years, the money for Aunt Nan's illness and hospitalization and surgery was all from Nan Qiao, to be precise, from Qi Rui, including Nantian's daily living expenses.
Nantian is Aunt Nan's biological son, regarded as Nan Qiao's elder brother, and has no serious work, and has been doing some part-time jobs sporadically, half of which is because of Aunt Nan's illness and needs to be taken care of from time to time, and part of the reason is because of Nantian's character, he is always some, with low eyes and low hands, and complains about life excessively.
Fortunately, in these years, there is Qi Rui.
Nan Qiao has always been very grateful to Qi Rui, and it is precisely because of this that Nan Qiao is reminded all the time that Qi Rui is good, and she and Qi Rui are never people of the same world, and they are always vigilant about Nan Qiao.
Nantian, who had been sitting on the sofa, finally stood up, got up from the sofa, sat down again, lowered his head and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Today is your birthday, happy birthday." ”
"Thank you." Nan Qiao didn't look back, but said thank you lightly, and then walked into the room, closed the door, and didn't care about the person outside the door.
Nan Qiao, who entered the room, closed the door and leaned against the door.
Today is your birthday, and everyone is wishing you a happy birthday, but this is Nan Qiao's birthday, my dear Aqiao, what about your birthday? Does anyone still remember?
Nan Qiao didn't even want to take a shower, lying on the bed, too late to take off the high heels on the soles of his feet.
It is said that Cinderella's crystal slipper will bring good luck to people, and even princesses envy it.
Why didn't she like it at all.
If she could, she would not want to wear a crystal slipper or meet a prince.
Nan Qiao looked at the gray ceiling, the apartment where Nan Qiao lives now was arranged by Qi Rui, the night scene is very beautiful, Nan Qiao is afraid of loneliness, and he is also afraid of the dark, he can't sleep at all without turning on the light, but Nan Qiao is afraid of turning on the light.
There were no stars outside the window, but they were still mottled and shining, but she fell on Nan Qiao's body through the window.
The corners of Nan Qiao's mouth twitched, but you are Cinderella.
Nan Qiao closed his eyes.
She hates the night, she hates quiet, she hates loneliness, but she lives in the dark and lives a lonely life.
After a while, Nan Qiao heard the sound of the door being closed outside, very lightly, very lightly, and the person who closed the door was really careful and careful.
Nan Qiao opened the door of his bedroom, the person who was originally sitting on the sofa left, and Nan Qiao finally turned on the light.
The lights in the living room were bright and harsh.
The whole room was empty, it was Nan Qiao left, and it was quiet.
There was an obvious indentation on the sofa cushion, and it was obvious that the person who had just sat there had been sitting there for a long, long time, in such a quiet and dark place, for a long, long time.
Nan Qiao, you are so cheap.
Nan Qiao squatted on the ground with herself in her arms, helpless and hesitant, her small body shrunk into a circle, small, very weak, and kept trembling, if she hadn't seen the tears oozing from the corners of her eyes, she couldn't detect or hear at all, it turned out that she was crying.
On the other side, Luo Chu had already crossed most of the city at this time. When the sky began to light slightly, he came to a cemetery on the outskirts of Nancheng, where his Aqiao was buried.
Luo Chu knelt in front of a cemetery, his hands trembling and his eyes teary-eyed.
He trembled and touched her name engraved on the tombstone, Jiang Qiao, there is nothing else, not even a photo, Luo Chu is almost unable to remember her appearance, the girl he put in his heart, the girl who has not had time to grow up, the eyebrows and eyes are crooked, the smile is shallow, and the soft and glutinous call, "Brother A Chu", it's so good.
That's his Acho, it's his unique Ajo, and it's the best Ajo.
"Ajo, happy birthday."
"Ajo, I miss you."
"Aqiao, I don't dare to miss you."
At this moment, the proud and sunny teenager was like an addict, and he didn't have any life, just blindly lowered his head, against his head, and his hands hung down in one place, but he clenched his fists.
Past events.
When Luo Chu first met Jiang Qiao, he was in the Qi family.
That day was the ninth birthday of the third young master of the Qi family, that is, Qi Rui, and the eight-year-old Luo Chu met the five-year-old Jiang Qiao, and he looked at him for ten thousand years.
"Third brother, happy birthday,"
When little Jiang Qiao handed the gift to Qi Rui, Luo Chu and Qi Rui were in the courtyard outside.
"When did you have an extra sister?"
Qi Rui is the only son in the family, the Sun family was born as a daughter, and the Ling family was also a daughter, as for the Yan family, they were not particularly close at that time, so they met Luo Chu, plus they were of the same age, and the two little boys were always able to play together, so Qi Rui was very good with Luo Chu since he was a child, and he always stayed together to play.
At that time, the Luo family had just come to Nancheng, although it was a good friend of the old lady of the Jiang family, but it was only a matter of the grandparents' generation, not to mention that Luo Chu's parents were not familiar with the environment, let alone an eight-year-old boy, before this, Luo Chu didn't even recognize Qi Rui, so naturally he didn't recognize Jiang Qiao.
Seeing the little girl in front of me calling Qi Rui "third brother", she just felt strange.
Qi Rui didn't pay attention to Luo Chu on the side, but took the gift from Jiang Qiao's hand with a smile, skillfully and affectionately took Jiang Qiao's hand, pulled her aside and sat down, and handed Jiang Qiao the toy in his hand, letting her choose whatever she wanted.
didn't plan to introduce Luo Chu to him, but Jiang Qiao asked Luo Chu first.
"Who are you?"
"Luo Chu,"
"Oh, you are the Luo Chu of the Luo family that grandpa often mentions,"
Jiang Qiao seemed to have heard of Luo Chu.
"Grandpa?"
"My name is Jiang Qiao, Qiao of Nansheng Arbor,"
When the girl laughed, she bent her eyebrows, her smile was shallow, very good-looking, imprinted in Luo Chu's eyes, and she only felt as moving as a spring scenery.
The southern arbor is as it was first seen.
Later, Luo Chu learned that she was the little lady of the Jiang family, the granddaughter of the old lady Jiang, Jiang Qiao, and the Jiang family's Aqiao, who became famous in Nancheng at a young age.
In the days that followed, Luo Chu no longer went to Qi's house to play with Qi Rui, but pestered Jiang Qiao at Jiang's house every day, just to hear her call him "Brother Achu", just like calling Qi Rui "third brother", soft and glutinous, and his voice was sweet.
"Call my brother,"
"Don't,"
"Why do you call Qi Rui my brother?"
"He's older than me, so he's naturally my brother,"
"I'm older than you, why don't you call me brother?"
"Don't,"
"Be obedient, call me 'Brother Ah Chu', it's fine, I also want to have a sister, I will be even better than Qi Rui to you,"
"Don't,"
"Why are you willing to call me brother?"
“......”
Luo Chu is a stubborn person, and he is also a stubborn person, especially for Jiang Qiao.
The feelings when I was young started abruptly, grew quickly, and ended up helpless, without the slightest reason.
is like Luo Chu to Jiang Qiao, at first it was just to hear her shouting "Brother Ah Chu" in her mouth, just because others had him or not.
Luo Chu cares about Jiang Qiao, this is an indisputable fact.
No one knows how much Luo Chu cares about Jiang Qiao.
And whether this concern is out of liking, no one knows.
Because this girl didn't have time to grow up.
It is precisely because of this that this is a lifelong regret and a lifelong expectation, which others can't compare, and can't compare.
After Qi Rui sent Nan Qiao home, he waited downstairs at Nan Qiao's house for a long time before driving away and returning to Qi's house again.
After the Qi family's field was dispersed, the Qi family was as empty as before, Qi Rui was lying on the sofa in the living room, a little groggy, after all, he had drunk a lot of wine and moved a lot of anger.
"Young Master, someone is looking for you outside, saying that it is Young Master Luo's person," After a while, I heard the housekeeper say, saying that someone from outside was looking for you. Originally, let alone Qi Rui, even the housekeeper wouldn't bother with it, but as soon as he heard that it was "Young Master Luo", he had a mouthful, and came in to say to Qi Rui, after all, Young Master Luo is not an ordinary person, and few people will act in the name of Young Master Luo.
"Let him in,"
"Okay."
Qi Rui half-propped up from the sofa and took a sip of the tea that had been cooled on the coffee table, which was considered to be sober.
"Hello, Mr. Qi," came in with an unfamiliar face.
"I'm sorry to bother you so late, I'm Mr. Luo's secretary, surnamed Wang," Luo Chu's secretary, Wang Xizhou, was one of the people who followed Luo Chu back to China this time.
The Luo family has been doing business abroad, and the business has also been doing well, and in recent years, they have the intention of returning to China for development, so they sent Luo Chu back to dive and explore the bottom wind.
And Qi Rui looked at this secretary acting boldly, and he was not a small person, either he was deeply trusted by Luo Chu, or he was valued and trusted by the Luo family.
"What's the matter?" Qi Rui said.
"Our Mr. Luo has caused you trouble tonight, I have come to make amends," the secretary looked at the person sitting on the sofa, the legendary third young master of the Qi family, the most expensive young master in Nancheng.
"You Luo always asked you to come?" Qi Rui felt that this secretary's words were a bit awkward when he heard it, based on his understanding of Luo Chu, 98% of it was the secretary's own opinion, and the remaining two percent was an excuse and step down for Luo Chu's abnormality today. If Luo Chu could really understand the balance with him like this, then he would really cause him trouble.
"It's... Of course, it is what our Mr. Luo meant, "The secretary is a little shivering, his Mr. Luo, now he doesn't know where to go, he has caused a mess, the person is gone, but I can't come to the door overnight to make amends, I just arrived, or on other people's territory, as the saying goes, a strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, who knows, you can't be cautious...
No, that doesn't seem right...
"Mr. Luo is a newcomer, and I don't know how to measure, and it is my dereliction of duty to disturb your dinner," the secretary continued.
"If you Luo always knew that his secretary had come to the Qi family to find me to make amends for him, it is estimated that there would be no secretary tomorrow," Qi Rui teased.
"Qi... What Mr. Qi said is really... humor, "The secretary is trustworthy and has a core view of interests, takes a streamlined route, things to things, people to people, receives a salary to do a thing, arranges clearly, and doesn't know much about the world."
"Everyone is used to calling me 'three less'," Qi Rui listened to the title of "Mr. Qi", and really felt a little abrupt.
"Three Shao," the secretary changed his name.
"You go back,"
"I... This... Okay,"
In order to cooperate with Luo Chu, the secretary also took some gifts as reparations, and brought them together just now and put them aside, Qi Rui saw it, and then said, "Just leave the things, I am not so hypocritical with Luo Chu, and you don't have to take it seriously,"
Although what he said was a little ambiguous and sounded fake, it was real, and Qi Rui and Luo Chu were really not so hypocritical.
Wang Xizhou didn't recognize this Qi Rui, but he had heard of it, of course, most of it was heard from Luo Chu, after all, some news newspapers were not very credible, at first Wang Xizhou also doubted how the three young men of the Qi family could become good brothers with Luo Chu, the Qi family is the most important etiquette and etiquette people, if it is placed in ancient times, it is the Qingliu official eunuch family, the most important thing is the reputation, and the children taught are also gentle and elegant, and then think about the little Luo of his own family, it is really... It's hard to put into words, how these two people can be so good together, it's unimaginable.
Thinking about it now, it's really strange, this Qi Rui is exactly the same as his Luo Chu, some fight, one stays in Nancheng safely, one stays abroad, one is flirting in the open, the other is playing in secret, they are all affectionate, each has its own preferences, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, one is a gloomy and cold teenager plus the big brother next door, at first it makes you feel warm as jade, but in fact it is as cold as frost, difficult to approach, and one takes the route of humor and domineering president, At first, it makes you feel excited, but in fact, it is also cold as frost and difficult to approach
There is only one point, which is all cold and unapproachable.
However, it turns out that it is so strange and very simple.
"Xie Sanshao, our Mr. Luo will trouble you,"
Only then did the secretary believe that it was really fine, and left the Qi family after speaking. Everything has been accepted, it should be in response to your affection, I can finally rest assured, although the secretary doesn't know why Luo Chu did such an abnormal and outrageous thing tonight, but now Luo Chu can't be contacted is indeed true, and he came back with Luo Chu, he is far from being familiar with Luo Chu in Nancheng, and he doesn't understand it very well, it will take a while to get used to, and I really can't guess where Luo Chu went, if the relationship between Qi Rui and Luo Chu is really so good, I should also know some hidden secrets. Maybe Qi Rui can contact Luo Chu before him, which is also good.
Sure enough, after the secretary left, Qi Rui took his mobile phone and called Luo Chu, but Luo Chu didn't answer, Qi Rui sent a message to Luo Chu.
"Ah Chu, I've made enough trouble, it's time to come back,"
Qi Rui is four years older than Jiang Qiao, one year older than Luo Chu, Luo Chu and Jiang Qiao are the children of the two families since childhood, Jiang Qiao shouted "third brother", Qi Rui naturally deserves Luo Chu's "third brother".
Since he is the third brother, he naturally has to do what his brother should do, for Luo Chu and Jiang Qiao.
Not to mention, Qi Rui knows that Jiang Qiao is the most precious of her "Brother A Chu", if Luo Chu is not doing well, Jiang Qiao will also be sad.
"Aqiao, is Luo Chu bad?"
"Nature is good,"
"Since Aqiao likes him, why don't you want to call him 'brother'?"
"If I call him 'Ah Chu' brother, won't I recognize him as my brother, if he really treats me as a sister, what should I do, I don't want to,"
"He is good-looking, white-looking, and very interesting, and always brings me fun and delicious food, and often makes me laugh,"
"Aqiao likes him very much, it's different from the third brother's liking,"
That year, Jiang Qiao was six years old, the Luo family had been in Nancheng for a year, and Luo Chu had been pestering Jiang Qiao to call his brother for nearly a year. This year, the Luo family found a lot of strange things to send to the Jiang family, to the quirky little lady of the Jiang family, Jiang Qiao accepted all these gifts, but he always refused to do what Luo Chu wanted, and called Luo Chu "Brother Achu".
That year, Qi Rui asked Jiang Qiao, it was the first time Jiang Qiao told Qi Rui that she liked Luo Chu, and Jiang Qiao liked Luo Chu, which was different from her liking Qi Rui.
I see.
A little child is already such a mustard.
Later, everyone in the Luo family's Ah Chu thought that he fell in love with the Jiang family's Ah Qiao, so attentive...
Later, the Luo family and the Jiang family agreed to marry their children, and promised to marry the Jiang family A Qiao Xu to the Luo family, and when the Luo family was about to leave Nancheng, the two families also held a banquet, drank the children's wine, and waited for the two to become adults, and the Luo family came to the door to marry.
"Xiao Rui, come and see your Grandpa Jiang,"
"Aqiao, this is your Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi,"
"Hello grandpa,"
"Hello uncle, good aunt,"
"This is your brother Qi Rui, the third young master of the Qi family, four years older than you,"
That year was the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Jiang family, and it was also the first time Qi Rui met Jiang Qiao. Although the Qi family and the Jiang family are old friends, in fact, there is no big dealing, it is nothing more than looking at the thin face of the old lady Jiang.
The Qi family has many heirs, and the direct lineage, all of them are not fuel-efficient lamps, and the Jiang family except for an old lady Jiang, in fact, there is no particularly outstanding character, the old lady Jiang is a person who likes children, but he only got a son, but he didn't have much ability, he only got the name of a favorite wife and filial piety, married a daughter-in-law, was sick, married for many years, and only gave birth to a daughter, that is, Jiang Qiao, although it was a daughter, but it really made the old lady Jiang very happy.
"This is for you," Qi Rui took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and put it in his hand, handing it to Jiang Qiao.
"Ah Qiao, you can't be so rude," Jiang Qiao was scolded before he could take it, retracted his fleshy little hand, hid it behind his back, and didn't forget to stick out his tongue, which was very cute.
"It's okay, if my sister likes it, I'll give it to my sister," Qi Rui stuffed the chocolate in his hand to Jiang Qiao, and Jiang Qiao stretched out his hand again to pick it up.
"Thank you, third brother," Jiang Qiao had just learned to speak at that time, a small person, wearing a red and joyful dress at his grandfather's birthday banquet, very cute.
"This kid is really rude, making everyone laugh,"
At that time, Jiang Qiao would not have known that the Jiang family was already high on the Qi family, and the Qi family was also a mixture of dragons and snakes, and not to mention whether there was a meaning of whether they looked at it or not, it was not so intimate that they were so affectionate that they shouted "third brother" at will, and recognized a person as a sister in vain.
And this "third brother" will inevitably not let people with a heart look for it, saying that the Jiang family deliberately wants to climb the Qi family and wants to win over a family affair.
"If Ah Qiao likes it, the third brother will be Ah Qiao's third brother and protect you for the rest of your life, okay?"
"Okay,"
Qi Rui will never forget it for the rest of his life, this girl, many times, always bends those good-looking eyebrows, with a shallow smile, and her voice is sweet, and she calls him "third brother" softly and glutinously.
Later, many people said that the third young master of the Qi family's golden and expensive family accepted the Jiang family's Aqiao's "third brother", which was a lifelong thing.
Some people also say that at a young age, Ah Qiao of the Jiang family recognized the third young man of the Qi family as his elder brother and promised the eldest young man of the Luo family to be his daughter-in-law, which was a big step for the Jiang family.
No matter why, whether it is a coincidence or not, the "third brother" of the Jiang family Aqiao, when he shouted, was sweet and very soft and glutinous, and it was also the "third brother" who turned people's hearts into the hearts of the people, and he trapped Qi Rui for the rest of his life.
Except for Aqiao of the Jiang family, no one called Qi Rui "third brother" again, and no one dared to call the third brother of the Qi family.
And since the fire in the Jiang family, no one has mentioned the Jiang family, and the Jiang family has been mentioned Aqiao, and these two families are even more so.
It's just that whether it is Qi Rui, the third young man of the Qi family, or Luo Chu, the eldest young man of the Luo family, one continues to stay in Nancheng with the family, and the other goes abroad with his parents.
They are all guarding their hearts in their respective places, looking for that Aqiao, looking for the person who looks like Aqiao, looking forward to Aqiao.
Because she walked in her youth, because she failed to grow up, she thought of countless possibilities, so she refused to let go, stubborn every day, and looked forward to it every day.
What would Acho be like if she grew up......
I drank a drink the night before, and when I got up the next day, I always felt that my head was swollen, my body was sore, and my heart was empty.
I met someone a few years ago, and when I remembered it a few years later, it was naturally the same.
And Qi Rui and Luo Chu are such two people, living such a life, and their methods are very different.
No matter how wonderful the world will be, no matter how graceful the beauties will be, they will always live in their memories, in the past, they just wish, remember that face, dream of that person, and continue to reverie, it is enough.
"Ah Chu will come in a while, don't stop him, you go to the gate and wait for him, it should be soon," Qi Rui said to the previous butler.
"Young Master Chu is coming?" The Luo family has been away from Nancheng for a long time, and Luo Chu has also left Nancheng for a long time.
"Maybe, it's always good to keep a door," Qi Rui's eyes glanced at the box of wine that Wang Xizhou had brought earlier.
Sure enough, within half an hour, Luo Chu drove to the door of Qi's house.
The Qi family is very large, there are a lot of people coming and going, and it is very deserted when it comes out, at least at this time, Luo Chu is standing outside the door, and in the entire Qi family, there are only three lights on, one is the outside light, leading Luo Chu home, one is the decorative lamp in the living room inside, and the other is naturally the main lamp in Qi Rui's study.
Luo Chu lowered his head and looked at the light and shadow on the ground, and after a long time, he raised his feet and walked into Qi's house, and then went upstairs.
The door of the study was hidden, Qi Rui knew early in the morning that he would come, when Luo Chu came in, Qi Rui was sitting on a chair, with his back against the door, he should be asleep, and there was a bottle of red wine and two glasses on the coffee table in front of the desk.
"Looking for me for a drink?" Luo Chu said relaxedly, went straight to the sofa in front of the coffee table, sat down, half lying and half sitting, looking out the window, but his eyes were blank.
"En," Qi Rui half-opened his eyes, mumbled, and didn't look back.
"Right here? That's boring! Luo Chu was very disdainful, although his eyes were blank and confused, his tone was still very frivolous.
"Where's the fun?" Qi Rui said, turned the chair around as he spoke, and looked at Luo Chu, who was pretending to be pretending and pretentious. Over the years, he still hasn't grown at all.
"Nature is ......" is naturally interesting in places where there are many women.
Before he could say the words, Luo Chu raised his head and met Qi Rui's eyes looking at him, Qi Rui's eyes have always been very deep and gloomy, since he was a child, people who see it are unpredictable and flustered, and people can't help but want to escape, always feeling that he has done something really bad, which is very incompatible with his warm and jade-like face. When I was a child, adults always said that Qi Rui was like an old pedant, and he must be a nerd when he grew up, who would have thought that Jiang Qiao would die in that fire and die on her twelfth birthday.
And those eyes that were only gentle like water to Jiang Qiao, Luo Chu never saw them from Qi Rui again, and today, today, which should have been Jiang Qiao's twentieth birthday, Luo Chu saw Qi Rui's eyes looking at Jiang Qiao, looking at other women, and that woman, who was also politely called "Miss Qiao", was treated differently by Qi Rui, and shined at today's dinner, which was enviable.
Luo Chu's mind suddenly appeared that the woman named Nan Qiao just now, with delicate manners, frivolous words, and seductive eyes, said to him without shame, Okay, who to accompany is not to accompany.
It's really cheap.
If Aqiao is here, she will definitely be the best and most beautiful girl in Nancheng, bright and dazzling, but not cheap.
His Aqiao, Achu's Aqiao, Luo Chu doesn't remember much anymore.
Luo Chu only remembered that the first time he saw Jiang Qiao, it was in the courtyard of the Qi family's old mansion, which was exactly the same as Qi Rui's courtyard now.
Later, for nearly a year, Luo Chu was chasing Jiang Qiao and calling his brother, wanting to hear Jiang Qiao's brother, just like Qi Rui's "third brother", soft, warm, and sweet.
Luo Chu felt that he had never seen such a good-looking girl, just like a delicate porcelain doll, this porcelain doll can also speak, and when she speaks, it is like glutinous rice candy, soft and glutinous, and not sweet.
This is the impression that Luo Chu can only think of clearly when he leaves Jiang Qiao, that girl, with curved eyebrows and eyes, with a shallow smile, shouted "Brother Ah Chu" to Luo Chu under the pear blossom tree planted in the courtyard of the Jiang family.
