The old butler gently lowered his eyes, but he didn't say much, just bent his back deeply towards the old lady in front of him, and said respectfully, "Yes." ”

After saying that, the old butler had already stepped aside.

Looking at the housekeeper who had retreated directly to the side, Old Madam Jian's eyes flickered slightly, and finally she didn't say anything more.

At this time, Qiao Xi was sitting in his room, looking at the layout around him, and there was a bit of cunning in his clear eyes.

She didn't say anything else just now, but fortunately, she had saved herself a lot of trouble, which was a good thing.

Just thinking about it, the door in front of Qiao Xi was knocked directly.

Slightly stunned, Qiao Xi looked his gaze towards the location of the door, and then Zhu Ling's lips opened coldly, and said slowly, "Come in." ”

With Qiao Xi's permission, the maid outside walked in.

Unlike the person who needed to protect Qiao Xi just now, this maid was obviously the lowest status of the Jian family, and she even hung her head from beginning to end.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Qiao Xi finally knew where this feeling came from.

The entire Jian family is like an ancient feudal imperial system!

Except for the people of the Jane family, the others are a little humble.

Only those who have the ability and are valued by the Jane family will have a relatively lofty status.

Just like the emperors of the past, everything they have can only be given by the Jane family.

After realizing this situation, Qiao Xi's eyebrows were tightly twisted, and he did not hide the dissatisfaction and rejection in his eyes.

But this attitude is not aimed at the girl in front of her, but at the entire Jian family, and everyone in the Jian family!

Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Qiao Xi finally sighed lightly, and then turned his gaze to the girl in front of him, and then his lips opened lightly, and said slowly, "What's the matter?" ”

"Miss Qiao Xi, Miss Caroline is waiting for you in the hall." After speaking, the girl stepped aside directly, looking very respectful, and respectfully made Qiao Xi's heart inexplicably a little more depressed.

But thinking of Caroline outside, Qiao Xi finally cleaned up this mood for a while, turned his eyes to the outside, and at the same time responded lightly, "Got it." ”

After speaking, Qiao Xi turned around and walked outside directly.

The people along the way are all the same, with a bit of numbness, and it is annoying to watch.

It wasn't until he saw Caroline in the living room that Qiao Xi's face finally eased, and there was finally a smile on his face.

"Caroline, you're back." Qiao Xi said as he walked in the direction of Caroline.

Seeing Qiao Xi, Caroline's eyes lit up in an instant, her blue eyes were watery, like a blue ocean, beautiful and beautiful.

Qiao Xi looked at Caroline, and the smile on her face was finally a little more sincere, and it was finally small from the heart.

"Sister Qiao Xi, I can be regarded as seeing you, and they won't let me in." Caroline pursed her lips as she spoke, with obvious displeasure on her face, "It's just unreasonable! Even if my friends go to my house, no one in my house will do it when I'm not at home. ”

Caroline said, it seemed that the anger in her heart was a little thicker, her pretty face was puffed up, and she was a little more cute for a while, and Qiao Xi's face was a little more helpless.

"Okay, okay, I know, I'll tell them next time, or I'll come down to you directly." Qiao Xi said, and sat down directly beside Caroline, picked up the teacup on the coffee table in front of him and took a sip gently.

Caroline blinked at Qiao Xi's reaction, with a little surprise in her big eyes.

Noticing Caroline's gaze, Qiao Xi raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and gently put down the teacup in his hand, and then turned his gaze to Caroline's body, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's okay......" Caroline shook her head, but those eyes full of curiosity still stared at Qiao Xi tightly, obviously there was something in her heart that she hadn't figured out, but she didn't ask.

Looking at Caroline, who obviously had something in mind, Qiao Xi sighed lightly, and looked at Caroline's eyes with a little more helplessness, "It's okay, just say whatever you want, want to ask about my current situation, or, do you want to know why I am staying here so naturally now?" ”

"That's right." Hearing Qiao Xi's words, Caroline's eyes lit up directly in an instant, and her palm-sized little face came directly in front of Qiao Xi, with a serious expression, "Sister Qiao Xi, I know you shouldn't like it here, but it's only been a short day, why do you seem to have accepted the Jian family?" ”

"I didn't accept the Jane family." Qiao Xi said, his eyes flickered slightly, and he also had a bit of complicated emotions, "It's just that I need to stay here now, and the situation here is not bad for me, and it can even be said that it will not have any effect, since we have nothing else to ask for, what are we afraid of?" ”

Caroline listened to Qiao Xi's words, winked at her, and then nodded solemnly, "Is that ......?"

As if she had thought of something, Caroline suddenly turned her head and continued to speak towards Qiao Xi, "Sister Qiao Xi, I'm about to forget, I came here to tell you about Xiao Hansheng, I saw him today." ”

"When?" Qiao Xi heard Caroline's words, her pupils widened suddenly, and she grabbed Caroline's wrist, although she had already thought in her heart that this "Mr. X" might not be Xiao Hansheng.

But at the beginning of the feast, she still couldn't believe that her feelings could be wrong.

And everything seems to be too much of a coincidence.

Listening to Qiao Xi's words, Caroline was also slightly stunned, obviously not knowing why Qiao Xi's emotions were so excited.

But after only being stunned for a while, Caroline came back to her senses, nodded her head at Qiao Xi, and continued to speak, "It's just ......"

Caroline's words didn't wait for her to finish, and a woman's mean voice suddenly sounded behind the two, which directly interrupted the direct conversation between the two.

"Yo? Isn't this Qiao Xi? Jian Ning said as she walked towards Qiao Xi's position with the people behind her, with a bright smile on her face, she couldn't see any disagreement between her and Qiao Xi at all, and even like two old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, they were very harmonious, "Why are you so idle now." ”

Listening to Jian Ning's words, Qiao Xi also turned his gaze towards her, his clear eyes flickered slightly, and then his lips raised slightly, and he gently hooked an arc towards her, "It's okay, it just happened that Caroline came, just here to familiarize yourself." ”

"Familiar?" Jian Ning said, and walked directly to Qiao Xi's side, the smile on his face did not decrease, and continued, "You should familiarize yourself with it, after all, if you want to live here in the future, it is always convenient to be familiar with it." ”

Saying that, Jian Ning turned her gaze to Caroline on the side, smiled slightly, and continued, "Is Caroline also coming to live?" There are quite a lot of places in Jane's house, but before you said that you were not a member of Jane's family, and you didn't want to come back, I thought you wouldn't come back to live, but you didn't prepare more rooms. ”

Caroline's eyebrows furrowed as she listened to Jane's words.

This seems to be ordinary small talk, but anyone with a brain can think of what Qiao Xi said before.

Although it is true that Qiao Xi is reluctant to return to the Jian family, but now she has to admit that she is still standing in the Jian family.

This matter is like directly slapping Qiao Xi in the face.

Listening to Jian Ning's words, Caroline's little face turned red, obviously with a slight anger.

But in the end, he still didn't find any reason or words for the seizure.

Taking a deep breath, Caroline didn't wait to say anything, Qiao Xi on the side had already gently reached out and patted Caroline's shoulder, and gestured to her, and then walked directly in front of Caroline, facing Jian Ning, the calm in her clear eyes was excessive, as if Jian Ning's words did not affect her at all.

"Don't bother, the old lady has prepared the room." After speaking, Qiao Xi just smiled at Jian Ning.

The delicate and excessive face was smiling, and for a while it was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it at all, and even the faces of several people who came with Jian Ning were unconsciously stunned by Qiao Xi's laughter.

It's like with a fatal attraction, making everyone shake slightly.

Noticing the reactions of the people around her, Jian Ning's face was a little embarrassed.

But the most angry thing is not the reaction of these people, but Qiao Xi's calm attitude!

Suddenly, the smile on Jian Ning's face froze, and there was a feeling of punching cotton.

I almost got angry with myself and got an internal injury.

Taking a deep breath, Jian Ning suppressed the anger in her heart, but still raised a smile towards Qiao Xi, and continued, "Yes, but I don't seem to have heard of my grandmother cleaning up any room here, but there is a room that has always been cleaned up." “

As he spoke, the emotions on Jian Ning's face had been dispelled cleanly, leaving a faint smile, and he said to Qiao Xi, "And are your rooms all arranged in the style of Country A?" ”

Qiao Xi listened to Jian Ning's words, his heart paused slightly, followed by a trace of uneasiness, and without waiting to think about it any more, Jian Ning had already spoken again, and said slowly, "My aunt before, that is, your mother Jian Lin'er also seemed to like the style of country A, from this point of view, in the end, she died in country A, which can be regarded as a consummation." ”

Having said this, Jian Ning didn't say much, just glanced at Qiao Xi lightly, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, tilted his chin slightly, and turned away directly regardless of the emotions on Qiao Xi's face at this time.

Qiao Xi looked at the proud Jian Ning in front of him, the emotional inconvenience on his face was still calm and excessive, but a layer of ripples had already swayed in those clear eyes, as if they were soaked in stormy waves, bottomless.
