Chapter XXXIX: Substantive Rewards

"Jennifer!" Qiao Le rushed forward to check on his injuries, but he didn't dare to move when he saw the blood flowing.

"Inform Tang Haotian, you will send people to the hospital immediately." Mu Qing put his arm around Qiao Le and asked them to transfer Jennifer out, because of Mu Qing's cover, they easily escaped the reporter's eyes.

Yuan Jing knew a little bit of bandaging and helped his wound to do a simple treatment.

Along the way, Qiao Le looked at Jennifer with red eyes, in her impression, Jennifer had never been so haggard as today, every time she saw him, he was always bright and refreshed, holding his hand tightly, his fingers were cold, and there was no sign of life at all.

"Mu Qing, Jennifer will be fine, right?" Qiao Le stared at Jennifer, but asked Mu Qing, his tone was more uncertain.

"It'll be fine, you have to believe in Haotian's medical skills."

Qiao Le is also willing to believe in Tang Haotian and believes that Jennifer will be fine.

Soon arrived at the hospital, the doctors and nurses pushed Jennifer into the operating room, Yuan Jing and Tang Haotian roughly talked about the situation, Tang Haotian reassured them, put on a mask and went in.

As the minutes passed, Qiao Le stood at the door and watched.

Mu Qing looked distressed, and said softly, "You have been standing for so long, go and sit next to you." ”

"I want to see Jennifer come out for the first time." Qiao Le insisted on accompaniing, and Mu Qing couldn't stand next to her without being able to.

The lights in the operating room were still on, only the nurses were in a hurry to get in and out, and Qiao Le promised Jennifer that no matter what happened, she would be by his side as soon as possible and would never break her promise.

For Jolle, Jennifer is like her brother and family, and she is a very important person.

Yuan Jing came over quietly after completing the formalities, and said something in Mu Qing's ear, Mu Qing's eyes turned to Qiao Le, "Find out the person who spread the news." ”

"Who is it?" Qiao Le instantly became serious.

"Qiao Feifei, let a little reporter write the report, and now someone has brought it." Yuan Jing said that fortunately, Mu Qing's uncle had connections in the newspaper, and he only needed to find the little reporter through his check.

Hearing Qiao Feifei's name, Qiao Le understood that Jennifer's private affairs must have been brought out because of a grudge against that game, and it was really careless to let her leave easily at that time.

"I want to meet the little reporter." Qiao Le followed, and looked at the operating room uneasily, Mu Qing saw her worry and comforted her, "Haotian is here, don't worry." ”

"Hmm."

The little reporter's name is Xiao Gang, standing in Tang Haotian's office at this time, when he saw Mu Qing and others coming in, he hurriedly begged for mercy and said, "Don't arrest me!" It's none of my business! It was Qiao Feifei who approached me and asked me to write this news, and promised me that it would definitely be a fire! ”

Mu Qing glanced at him, knowing that he was not lying, a reporter who had just come out of society always wanted to write a good news to gain a foothold in the company, and there was nothing wrong with that.

"I know it has nothing to do with you, how much did Qiao Feifei give you?" Qiao Le asked.

Xiao Gang's eyes flickered, and he didn't say a complete word.

"You don't say? I forgot to tell you, Qiao Feifei also asked me to take 200,000, with her current situation, no matter how much money she promised you, it is impossible to really give it to you, are you sure you don't say it? Qiao Le sat down and looked up at him.

Xiao Gang calculated the account in his mind, and he knew about Qiao Feifei's accident as soon as possible, because he was also at the scene, but he really didn't know about borrowing money, if there was such a thing, wouldn't the money promised to him be yellow?

"I say! Qiao Feifei promised me 50,000 yuan, and also let me follow the report at any time! ”

Sure enough, a simple sentence was blown up, 50,000 yuan is indeed a lot of money for a person who has just worked, no wonder he will be tempted, and Qiao Feifei is also accurate, Xiao Gang is an unknown reporter, even if he writes it, he may not find it.

"When are you trading?"

"She said that she would give me all the money after she completely broke Jennifer and made him lose all his reputation in the industry."

"Very well, then I'll make a deal with you too." Qiao Le suddenly thought of a way, but it was just ...... She also needed Mu Qing's help and turned her head to look at him.

"Mu Qing, can you please lend me 100,000 yuan, and I will pay you back when I get Qiao Feifei's 200,000 yuan."

"As I said before, what's mine is yours." Mu Qing took the bag from Yuan Jing's hand and took out a card for her, "This is all my salary, use it as you like." ”

Qiao Le was stunned, Mu Qing, as the CEO of Mu Group, not to mention the company's profits, his salary is not a small amount until now, right? Just give it to her?

"Too much, isn't it...... I ......"

"Not much, only millions."

Burst...... Qiao Le almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, a few million is not much? She just needs 100,000 yuan, why give her so much?

"That...... I'll give you the card when I'm done using it. ”

Looking at Xiao Gang, Qiao Le said: "I will give you 100,000 yuan to report a piece of news, which will make you famous in the industry, but I have one condition." ”

"On what terms?" When Xiao Gang heard that there was money to take, he couldn't wait to say.

"It's to expose Qiao Feifei to me, saying that you took the money to do things for her, but you can't get over it with your conscience, so I continued to follow up and report and found that Jennifer's incident was made up by her, for which Jennifer was hospitalized by a halo, and all the medical expenses were borne by Qiao Feifei, so that you can get fame and take money again, why not?"

Qiao Le's words made Xiao Gang moved, didn't he take money to write news just to get ahead in front of reporters? Now that there is such a good choice in front of him, why wouldn't he use it?

"That'...... Is Jennifer's thing real or fake? ”

"It's none of your business, I'll pay you to write whatever you want! As I say, the 100,000 pieces are yours. ”

Qiao Le finally realized how awesome it is to be rich at this moment, he had only heard that money could make ghosts grind, but he had never experienced it.

Xiao Gang can't manage it so much, since she said that Qiao Feifei's money can't be obtained, it is better to take the 100,000 yuan, not to mention that with Mu Qing and Mu Group as a guarantee, she will not run away.

"Good! I write! ”

The agreement was reached, leaving his contact information, and letting him go.

Qiao Le turned around and found Mu Qing looking at her with a smile and touching her cheek, "Is there something on my face?" Staring at me? ”

"You're good-looking." In the scene just now, Qiao Le exerted her unique logical thinking, which not only pushed Qiao Feifei out but also preserved Jennifer's reputation, the best of both worlds, which ordinary people can't even imagine.

Qiao Le's face flushed slightly, and he pushed him, "Don't make trouble!" ”

"I'm telling the truth." Mu Qing gently stroked her face, in fact, he could easily solve this kind of thing, and he didn't need Qiao Le to do it, but he didn't do it, he wanted Qiao Le to solve it himself, so that she could grow and become stronger step by step, "You remember, I will always be your backer and your backing, so do whatever you want." ”

His words warmed Qiao Le's heart, and also made her stand straighter, and rarely took the initiative to hug him, pressed against his chest, and silently said thank you in her heart.

Mu Qing didn't like that she was always polite, so thank you in my heart.

"Mr. Mu, Jennifer is out of the operating room." Yuan Jing said at the door.

Qiao Le quickly let go of him and ran to the ward to see him, Jennifer's left wrist was tightly bandaged, and her face was still pale and lying on the bed calmly.

"Dr. Tang, he ...... How's it going? ”

"I lost too much blood, but fortunately I found it in time, I gave him a blood transfusion, and it would be good to make up for it later, but ......" Tang Haotian was extremely serious, and he stopped talking.

"But what?"

"He seems to have depression, you know?"

Depression? Qiao Lezhen didn't know that Jennifer was sick, and he had never heard him say it, how could a person who seemed so happy have depression? She shook her head, "I don't know, is it serious?" ”

"I think he should have taken medication, but let's wait until he wakes up, and if he needs a psychiatrist, just speak." Tang Haotian went out.

Qiao Le sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him, how could Jennifer be depressed? So today I committed suicide by cutting my wrists because of depression?

No one knew the news of Jennifer's hospitalization, Mu Qing specially ordered the doctors in the hospital not to be publicized, and also invited nurses and bodyguards to take turns to take care of them in the ward, such a subtle move made Qiao Le very moved.

Qiao Le has been waiting for him to wake up in front of the hospital bed, Mu Qing took the computer to work next to him, and Yuan Jing went to inquire about Qiao Feifei's whereabouts, but there was no news yet.

After two hours, Jennifer's hand moved slightly, Qiao Le didn't dare to use force, only held his hand lightly, "Jennifer? ”

Jennifer slowly opened her eyes, saw Qiao Le's worried look, pulled the corners of her mouth, and said in a hoarse voice, "Le baby...... Why are you here? ”

"Where else can I be if I'm not here? You're scaring me to death! ”

"I'm sorry ......"

"Don't say I'm sorry, don't do this in the future!"

Qiao Le dragged him back and asked him to sit up, Jennifer saw Mu Qing sitting opposite, she was not surprised that he was here at all, looked at the surroundings, there were no reporters, and I thought it was because of him.

"Eat something, you have lost too much blood, you need to replenish your body." Qiao Le took the food he had just bought and put it on the table.

Speaking of excessive blood loss, Jennifer is a little unnatural, because Mu Qingzai is there, he must have also seen the news, and his private life is something he is reluctant to men, let alone talk about it in front of men.

Mu Qing raised his head, saw unnatural emotions in his eyes, and went out consciously, anyway, nothing would happen to him and Qiao Le when they stayed together.

"Jennifer, now it's just the two of us here, you and I have a good talk, why did you cut your wrists? Is it because you ......"

"I have depression, it's very serious." Jennifer took the initiative to say that he had not admitted it in front of anyone, not even his former boyfriend did not know, the source of his depression was his family, and as an adult, he had a preliminary understanding of the relationship between men and women, but he had no interest in girls, and at that time he realized that he liked men.

He hid well in front of his family, he was a normal man in the eyes of relatives and friends, until the family urged him to talk about marriage, he refused, trying to tell his parents about his sexual orientation, but they didn't understand, but felt that he was a monster, unbearable, and with the blow of words, Jennifer was simply living like a year at that time, and finally left the house one day without being able to stand it.

Depression suddenly appeared at that time, without any signs, he didn't care at first, until he talked about his boyfriend for more than two years, and accidentally heard him say that he hated himself, and he was with him for his money, at that time Jennifer was also a little famous in the clothing design industry, and there were many people looking for him to design clothes, hearing his words, Jennifer was very angry, after the breakup, he was depressed for a long time, depressed and depressed at home every day, and once wanted to commit suicide and was found by the staff before he succeeded, Later, he met Qiao Le and made new friends, he thought that the depression had been cured, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't bear it when today's news broke out.

Qiao Le listened to his story, and she had mixed feelings, and she now finally understood why Jennifer understood her and why she never mentioned her family to her.

For everyone, home is a warm harbor, no matter what happens outside, as long as you come home, it is as if you are protected, and she, like Jennifer, has never felt the warmth of home.

"So, you've been taking medicine quietly, haven't you?"

"Hmm."

"I'm sure you'll be fine, Jennifer, don't worry, I'll help you solve this matter, and I won't let your reputation be damaged!" Qiao Le said firmly.

Jennifer smiled, he didn't care about his reputation, anyway, people in the industry knew that he had a weird temper and was difficult to get along with, and only those who knew him knew that he was a very good person to get along with.

"By the way, Zhang Yingxue came to see you halfway, but you hadn't woken up yet, call her back."

"Okay, thank you for today."

"What do we have to do with each other? And I'm still polite? You have a good rest after eating, there are nurses here, you have something to tell them, I still have important things to do. ”

Qiao Le walked out of the ward and let out a long exhale, his mood extremely heavy.

"Finished talking?"

"Well, you go back first, I'm going back to my house to do something." He stayed here all night, and Qiao Le was embarrassed to let him follow him back to Qiao's house again.

Mu Qing asked Yuan Jing to go with her, and he went back to accompany Ruibao first.

On the way, Qiao Le specially bought some supplements to take back.

Qiao's house, Liu Xiufang was the only one in the living room, and when she heard footsteps outside, she looked up and saw Qiao Le coming in with something, followed by Yuan Jing, subconsciously got up and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"Do I need a reason to go home? Where's my dad? ”

"Didn't you disown this family a long time ago? What are you doing back? Your dad isn't here. ”

"Liu Xiufang, it's okay if you want to quarrel, but not now, if you want to quarrel, I'll accompany you to argue slowly another day, and call my dad down."

Liu Xiufang reluctantly went upstairs to call someone, and a few minutes later, Qiao Zhenhua went downstairs, "Qiao Le? How do you have time to come over today? ”

"Dad, I haven't been back for a long time, I specially brought you something, you are not in good health, this is for you to make up for your body." Qiao Le put the gift in front of him.

Qiao Zhenhua was a little surprised in the face of his eldest daughter's sudden concern.

"What are you? What's the matter? ”

"Didn't I hear two days ago that Fei Fei participated in the competition and won the championship? Specially came to congratulate her, what about the people? Qiao Le said this deliberately, staring at Qiao Zhenhua's face gradually darkened, "What's wrong?" She's not there? ”

"I haven't been back for a few days."

"Really? I guess I'm very busy after winning the championship, and I still have something to look for her. Qiao Le looked very sorry.

"Say whatever you want."

Qiao Le looked very embarrassed, and took out an IOU from his bag, "Didn't I borrow her 200,000?" That's the working capital I left for myself to buy equipment, thinking that if she wins the championship, this money should be repaid, after all, I am still waiting to use it in the store, you see......"

Liu Xiufang, who didn't speak on the side, heard the asking for money, and immediately stood up and pointed at Qiao Le and said, "How can anyone just borrow money and ask someone to repay it a few days ago?" Fei Fei's career has just started, where will the money come to you? ”

"Little aunt, you can't say that, when I borrowed money, it was very simple, and I am very optimistic about Fei Fei, with her strength, this money is not a problem, not to mention that the IOU is clearly written, the money will be repaid within half a month, and now it is the last day as of tomorrow, can I not be in a hurry?"

Qiao Le put the IOU on the table, and the two of them opened their eyes wide, and the words were clear in black and white.

"You didn't say it at the time!"

"It's not you who borrowed the money, what am I telling you to do? Fei Fei didn't tell you after signing it? ”

Liu Xiufang glanced at Qiao Zhenhua, Qiao Feifei didn't seem to sign without even looking at it, and she didn't say when she would have to pay back?

"Lele, look, can Feifei's money be slow? If you are in a hurry, you can ask Mr. Mu to give it to you first, Fei Fei is a little tight......"

"Dad, do you think Mu Qing is a relief house? He will give me as much as I want? I'm embarrassed if you're embarrassed, this 200,000 yuan is my personal money, and it is not difficult to borrow it again if I borrow it well, and I won't dare to borrow money in the future if you do this. ”

Qiao Le is so deadlocked, he must see the money before he is willing to leave, but where can Qiao Zhenhua get the 200,000 yuan on this big night!

Yuan Jing suddenly hummed and handed the phone to Qiao Le, "Madam, this is the later report on the day of the game, Qiao Feifei seems to have found out about plagiarism." ”

Qiao Zhenhua They didn't know that Qiao Le was at the scene, thinking that Qiao Le really only found out now.

"Oh my God! How could Fei Fei do such a thing, Dad, you must be very sad, right? Fei Fei has always been your pride, what do you say, auntie? Qiao Le pretended to be very sorry and said.

The old faces of the two couldn't hold back, and neither of them spoke.

Qiao Le achieved his goal, did not embarrass them, and dropped a sentence: "I can postpone the repayment of the money for another week, and if I don't repay the money after a week, I will use legal means, Assistant Yuan, this has a legal effect, right?" ”

"Yes."

"Very well, we'll see you in a week." After walking two steps, Qiao Le turned back again, looked at Liu Xiufang and said, "I remember that my little aunt still has a little dowry, and she can also get it, no matter how bad it is, this house is not bad." ”

"You! Are you trying to leave us with no place to live! Liu Xiufang is angry, and she doesn't care what her image is, she looks hideous.

"How so? You helped your brother buy a small western-style house two years ago, so you can go and live there! ”

After Qiao Le finished speaking, he ignored them and left Qiao's house.

On the way here, Yuan Jing collected all the information about Liu Xiufang, only to know that she bought a small western-style building for Liu Youquan in the best area of Ancheng two years ago, and spent a lot of money, and all this money was in the name of the Qiao family, did she really think that no one knew what she had done?

Qiao Le stood on the side of the road and didn't rush to get into the car, took a deep breath of fresh air, it feels good to have a backer, do whatever you want, as soon as she thinks of being able to clean up Qiao Feifei and Liu Xiufang, she is very happy, the more a person cares about something, take away what she cares about, that is the most painful.

The reporters who squatted near Jennifer's house waited until midnight and saw no one come out, leaving one after another.

Nearby, Xiao Gang saw everything in his eyes and left quietly.

Early the next morning, the latest news in Ancheng, about Jennifer's tracking report, as Qiao Le said, Xiao Gang confessed Qiao Feifei in the fastest time, because the game correction plagiarism made her resentful, so she made up lies to frame Jennifer, causing Jennifer to be hospitalized in a bad body, and all the consequences caused will be handed over to the law, and Qiao Feifei will be traced.

Seeing this news, Qiao Le smiled happily.

Mu Qing, who was sitting opposite her, also saw it and asked, "Very happy?" ”

"Of course, you don't know how ugly Liu Xiufang's face was when I went to Qiao's house last night! I should have taken a picture at that time! Qiao Le is like a child at this time, without the domineering spirit of yesterday.

"So, you shouldn't thank me for a moment?"

"Didn't you say I shouldn't be polite to you?"

"I want to thank you substantively."

After speaking, Mu Qing suddenly got up, dragged her chin and kissed the corner of her mouth, and didn't forget to lick the corner of her mouth.

Qiao Le's face turned red, this ...... In this broad daylight, I don't say a word if I want to kiss.

"I'm done." Qiao Le hurriedly dropped his chopsticks and ran away, and Mu Qing's low laughter came from behind him.

Jennifer, who was in the hospital, also saw the news, and knew that Qiao Le must have done it without reading the content, and Mu Qing's credit was inevitable.

As soon as he dropped the newspaper, Qiao Le came in.

"I've brought you breakfast, this is red bean porridge that nourishes blood and qi, and the doctor said you can only eat some warm food now."

"Silly girl, you did so much for me and didn't tell me?"

"Tell you what? The personal grudge between me and Qiao Feifei, I don't want to get involved with you, not to mention that you are my family, and it is also appropriate to help you, eat quickly. ”

They never need to thank each other, a simple gesture will make it clear.

After taking care of him and eating, Tang Haotian came over to check it again, and the wound was replaced with new medicine.

Before he could chat with Jennifer, Qiao Le's phone rang.

"An Tong, what's wrong?"

"Qiao Le, come to the store quickly......" An Tong's voice sounded like he was about to cry, Qiao Le panicked, could it be that something happened in the store?

"If you have something to do, go get busy."

Qiao Le arrived at the store as quickly as possible, the whole person was stunned at the door, the door of the store was smashed and couldn't see clearly, the equipment and equipment inside were also fragmented and couldn't see the original appearance, the staff and An Tong were packing up things, An Tong looked up and saw Qiao Le, as if he saw hope.

"You're here, I was scared to death when I came here in the morning!"

"Who did it?"

An Tong shook his head, "I don't know, the computer was also smashed, and it is estimated that the monitoring will not be visible." ”

This is really ruthless, Qiao Le took a turn inside, there is almost nothing that can be used, these are all new equipment that I just bought when the store opened, it looks like it is going to close today.
