Chapter 37: A Date with Daddy

Qiao Le glanced at Qiao Feifei, pretended to be fine, and said, "It's nothing, it's just ...... I want to ask you for one thing. ”

"Our relationship, let alone one thing, promise you everything."

"One of the contestants today is named Qiao Feifei, she is my sister, I want to ask you for a favor, can you let her win the championship? Please. Qiao Le said in a calm tone as much as possible.

Jennifer was silent for a moment on the other side of the phone, "I'll discuss it with a few other judges, but in the end, I made a decision, since it's your sister, it's better to decide on her." ”

"Thank you."

"We don't have to be so polite to each other." Jennifer hung up the phone.

"How? Satisfied? ”

Qiao Feifei smiled happily, with Jennifer's words, she would be relaxed in the next game, but ...... Looking at Qiao Le lying at her feet, she didn't want to let go easily.

"Satisfaction is satisfaction, but at the last moment, I won't let you go, you just stay here obediently, waiting for my good news!"

This place is very remote, and under normal circumstances, no one will come, and at this time, everyone is watching the live broadcast at the front desk, and they will not pay attention at all.

The two people who tied her up threw her into the corner, the phone was also taken away, the door was locked, Qiao Le was the only one in the dark dressing room, there was no movement outside, but the two should be waiting outside the door, Qiao Le thought, how to get out, I don't know if he would understand what she said to Jennifer just now.

Jennifer hung up the phone and looked at the phone, it was indeed Qiao Le's number, but it wasn't like something she would say.

In the past few years abroad, he still has some understanding of Qiao Le's family, this sister is not good at stubble, Qiao Le is not kind enough to let her win the championship, plus Qiao Le is not a person without measure, this kind of international competition, the whole process is live, how can it be because she changed the rules of the game with a word, something must have happened!

beckoned the assistant to come over, turned his head sideways and said something in his ear, the assistant understood, and went to Mu Qing's side.

"Mr. Mu, Jennifer asked me to tell you that Miss Qiao seems to have had an accident."

Qiao Le has been gone for so long and hasn't come back, Mu Qing has already guessed a few points and asked Yuan Jing to check, now that the live broadcast has started, he can't leave.

Jennifer glanced back, met Mu Qing's gaze, and gave him a reassuring look, Jennifer nodded, and turned to look at the players on the stage.

Yuan Jing took the work card, easily went to the backstage, turned around a few times and didn't find Qiao Le's shadow, and asked everyone else and said they didn't see it, how could a good person disappear?

At the end of the corridor, I saw a girl turn inside, Yuan Jing followed, and saw two people standing at the door over there, and felt a little strange.

"Are you looking for Qiao Le?" A girl suddenly asked him in the back, and when Yuan Jing turned around, he saw her, who was the person he was following.

He looked at her vigilantly and asked, "How do you know?" Who are you? ”

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not the one who kidnapped her, my name is Zhang Yingxue and Qiao Feifei's college classmate, just now I saw her lead someone to arrest Qiao Le, it's in there, it's just guarded, I'm a girl can't help it, I want to call someone to save her, I just saw you, so I notified you."

Yuan Jing looked at her carefully, a soft and weak girl, there was no threat, and she didn't lie to him when she wanted to.

Called two bodyguards, but just an instant of effort to knock the two down, Yuan Jing went over and kicked the door open, saw Qiao Le in the corner through the faint light, and quickly helped her untie the rope.

"Are you alright, ma'am? Are there any injuries? Yuan Jing didn't dare to check it, so he had to ask her.

Qiao Le shook his head, he had been in a dark place for a long time, and he was a little uncomfortable with the light outside, and after slowing down for a while, he opened his eyes and found that there was a girl standing next to Yuan Jing.

"What is this?"

"She's the one who found out you brought me here."

"Thank you." Qiao Le said, walked out of the dressing room, and saw the two people who were pressed in his hands by the bodyguard, "What should I do with these two people?" ”

"Mr. Mu didn't say anything."

"Then throw it to Xu Wenrui, he must have a way to solve it." Qiao Le said casually, Yuan Jing was frightened, who in this Ancheng didn't know that Xu Wenrui was notoriously ruthless, and he could torture a complete person to death without blood on his body, when did Qiao Le become so ruthless?

In fact, it's not that Qiao Le has become ruthless, she just understands that in the face of the person who bullied her, there is a bit of kindness, and that person can't give her back a bit of kindness, but will only use more malice towards her, since this is the case, then there is no need for her to leave a bit of kindness.

Yuan Jing waved his hand, and the bodyguard took the two away.

Qiao Le looked at the clothes on her body, they were already dirty, this was Jennifer's special choice of clothes for her, and she was ruined like this before she had time to watch the game performance, which was really unpleasant.

"Ma'am, are we going back to the scene now?"

"Go back? If Qiao Feifei saw me appear, wouldn't her purpose be unattainable? Do you have a work permit? Take me where she can't see, and I'm going to see how she gets the title. ”

Yuan Jing gave her the work card and followed her over, Mu Qing was not there, he was the best bodyguard.

"Wait a minute, Sister Qiao Le." Zhang Yingxue called them to stop.

Qiao Le turned around, saw that she was a little familiar, and remembered that she seemed to have seen her in the photos of Qiao Feifei's classmates, "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”

"Actually...... I have something I want to trouble you, I don't know if I can ask you for help, if you are embarrassed, forget it. Zhang Yingxue said very shyly, she watched the recent news and knew that Qiao Le was now Mu Qing's person, so she must be sure.

"Let's talk about it."

A few minutes later, Yuan Jing returned to Mu Qing and whispered a few words to him, Mu Qing nodded slightly, "I know, let someone arrange it." ”

"Okay."

After a few rounds of competition, Qiao Feifei successfully entered the final round, eliminating two out of five players, and finally competing for the best designer.

Entering the intermission, Jennifer looked a little tired and got up to go backstage to rest for a while.

Qiao Feifei followed and stopped him, "Hello Mr. Jennifer, I'm Qiao Feifei, one of today's contestants, can you please help me sign a name?" ”

Jennifer squinted her eyes and looked at her carefully, she and Qiao Le were two appearances at all, even if it was a half-sister, there should be two similarities, but it couldn't be seen in her at all.

"Sorry, I'm a little tired."

"Jennifer ......"

Jennifer took two steps and turned back, smiled faintly and said, "You're Qiao Le's sister, right?" I remembered. With that, he left.

Qiao Feifei stood in place with the notebook and didn't step forward, the main purpose of her coming over was to remind Jennifer that Qiao Le was still in her hands, and don't forget what she promised.

During the intermission, it was stipulated that the designer contestants could not leave, and Qiao Feifei had been waiting on the stage, looking at the empty seat next to Mu Qing under the stage, Qiao Le really didn't come back.

However, what she didn't know was that in the background, Qiao Le saw Qiao Feifei's every move from the director's perspective, and she really thought that she would easily win the championship? I'm afraid what will happen next will make her fall from heaven to hell.

Jennifer walked around from behind, saw Qiao Le sitting next to the chief director, and settled down, she had received the words she asked people to bring, and she also said yes to the other judges.

Ten minutes later, the competition continued, and the designers tried on the models one by one with good designs, and explained the design concept.

In fact, Qiao Feifei is very design-minded, she pursues perfection, every piece of clothing is the most delicate look, if her mind is right, there is no problem at all to become a professional fashion designer, the most important thing is that she does not.

The last dress was also showcased, and the three designers stood on the stage waiting for the judges to announce it.

Qiao Feifei quietly looked at the two people next to her, they were very nervous, unlike her indifferent face, of course, it was easy to know who the champion was.

"The winner of this year's designer competition is ......" Jennifer got up, glanced at the audience, and her eyes fell on Qiao Feifei, "Qiao Feifei!" ”

There was warm applause from the audience, and she won all the hearts of the audience for her award.

Just as the whole process was full of blessings and applause, Qiao Le, who was next to the chief director, handed Zhang Yingxue a microphone, encouraged her to be brave, and pushed her to the front.

"Qiao Feifei won the championship by plagiarizing my work!"

Wow...... Suddenly, the applause went out, everyone was stunned, and they all looked towards the voice, it was a weak little girl, who was invited to the stage by the host, Qiao Feifei was nervous when she saw her, and pretended not to know her.

"This young lady, just now you said that Miss Qiao plagiarized your work?"

"Yes, I designed her last entry."

"You talk nonsense! This is obviously my own drawing, what does it have to do with you! Qiao Feifei retorted to her loudly, and in the afterglow, she saw Qiao Le in the back slowly walking to the front and sitting down next to Mu Qing, and she was even more surprised, how did she get released? So this Zhang Yingxue was also arranged by her?

"You said you drew it, is there any evidence? Can you name the original design concept for this dress? Qiao Feifei can't say it, because it's not your stuff in the first place, and what you said just now is all made up! Zhang Yingxue raised her head, looked at her head-on, and was no longer afraid.

"I ......" Qiao Feifei couldn't say, she really didn't know.

"I didn't expect it to be plagiarism......"

"That's it, such a beautiful dress was not designed by myself, and I am still proud."

"I can't see that such a good-looking girl would do such a thing, I'm so disappointed......"

The discussion of the audience fell into Qiao Feifei's ears word by word, she wanted to explain, but she couldn't say a word of explanation at all, this was a live broadcast, people in Ancheng and many other places were watching, she was going to finish......

The judges and the host were learning the truth of the matter, and Zhang Yingxue and Qiao Feifei were standing side by side.

"Zhang Yingxue, you are so good! Unexpectedly join Qiao Le to me together! ”

"You stole my work in the first place, no wonder I did."

"Excellent! You'll regret it! ”

Zhang Yingxue doesn't care, she doesn't want to watch the things she worked so hard to create be possessed by others, and she doesn't want to do this kind of thing as watching others win awards with her things and make wedding clothes for others.

Soon the result was decided, Qiao Feifei did use Zhang Yingxue's design, and the host immediately announced that Qiao Feifei's championship was invalid and would never be eligible to participate.

This is a joint international designer competition, the rules are extremely strict, before the competition every contestant understands the rules of the competition, if there is a suspicion of plagiarism, this will be the result.

The audience was very satisfied with this decision, and shouted loudly for Qiao Feifei to get out, and two security guards came outside and pulled Qiao Feifei away from the scene.

"Let me go! It's not fair! Qiao Feifei was still shouting, but no one paid attention to her.

The live broadcast continues, and this matter will be reported in the design circle, and it is estimated that Qiao Feifei will not make any progress in the design industry.

"Jennifer, is the game going to go on now?" The host asked him quietly.

Jennifer looked at Zhang Yingxue on the stage and said with a smile: "Isn't there another player?" Then go ahead. ”

"Me?" Zhang Yingxue pointed at herself a little unexpectedly, she ...... If I don't succeed in registration, can I still have a chance?

"Of course, since you said that Qiao Feifei took your design, then now, show me your true skills." Jennifer and several other judges looked at each other in agreement.

Zhang Yingxue was entangled in the fact that she didn't bring anything here, how could she participate?

Just when she didn't know what to do, Qiao Le took a few people to move all her things to the stage, and whispered in her ear: "Come on, I believe in you, Jennifer is very optimistic about you!" ”

After speaking, he didn't linger long, and returned to sit next to Mu Qing.

Zhang Yingxue gave her a grateful look on stage and began to enter the creative state.

"It's not hurt, is it?" Mu Qing asked in a low voice.

"I'm fine, fortunately Yuan Jing came in time, and Zhang Yingxue's help, Qiao Feifei just trapped me and didn't let me affect her to win the championship."

Although her clothes were dirty and there was some dust on her face, in Mu Qing's eyes, she looked very good, and she reached out and grabbed her hand tightly, not letting her go.

The result of the competition is obvious, Zhang Yingxue won the championship position, and was also accepted by Jennifer as an apprentice, which can be said to be a counterattack.

At the end, the crowd was crowded, Mu Qing and Qiao Le quietly left the scene, and she still didn't participate in this atmosphere.

Getting into his car and on the way back, Mu Qing asked, "Why did you help that girl?" ”

"Because she has dreams, and if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be here safely, it's just a personal favor," Qiao Le said lightly.

For her, it is a simple favor, but for Zhang Yingxue, it is a life-changing thing.

In the past, Qiao Le would also help many people and do her meager strength, unlike the feelings that brought her today, first of all, she suppressed Qiao Feifei to make her very happy, and in addition, she helped Zhang Yingxue, making her think that when she was abroad, if she hadn't met Jennifer, she didn't know what she would have lived like when she was abroad, but it was not as good as today.

Mu Qing looked at the girl next to him with a smile, he just liked her kindness, not the kindness of the Virgin, but knowing under what circumstances he was kind and knowing when to fight back.

When he arrived at the door of the gym, Mu Qing didn't stay until he had something to do, and before he entered the door, An Tong ran out and shouted: "Qiao Le, come and take care of it!" ”

"What's wrong?"

Deng Xiang was cleaning in the gym, carrying a bucket to wipe things everywhere, and when he saw Qiao Le coming, he immediately stood in front of her.

"Boss, what more instructions do you need?"

"You...... What are you doing? ”

"The boss told me that you helped me intercede and let me go back to the casino to work, but the boss didn't forgive me and let me experience with you, so ...... I'm also an employee of the gym now, and I don't have to pay but work on a voluntary basis. ”

Poof, Qiao Le laughed out loud, is this Deng Xiang here to be funny?

"I don't have any work to do, what are you supposed to do?"

"No, this is the boss's order, I must listen." Deng Xiang was still standing there.

Qiao Le saw that he had no choice, so he had to say, "Since you work with me, do you want to listen to me?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay, let's go in with me and do a set of training first!" Qiao Le said, went to change her clothes, she usually insists on exercising, her figure is not ordinarily good, and the vest line with her waist and abdomen exposed is faintly visible.

Deng Xiang didn't dare to slack off and followed her in.

In only half an hour, Deng Xiang was tired and collapsed on the ground, Qiao Le stood in front of him and looked at him and shook his head, "You can't do this physique, you might as well exercise more if you have cleaning skills, go rest for a while, and do the set just now." ”

Sure enough, just like she thought, she had an empty appearance and no combat effectiveness.

An Tong kept applauding and looked at her with admiration, "Qiao Le, you're still amazing, it's easy to get it." ”

"You, don't talk about me here, as the second owner of the gym, you must also have good physical fitness!"

"Okay, I'm not like you, I'm so strict with myself."

Speaking carefully, Qiao Le fell in love with sports during the time when she went abroad, because after giving birth, she didn't do a good job during the confinement period, her physical fitness was too poor, and she got sick every once in a while, and later after Jennifer's introduction, she went to the gym to do basic exercises, and over time, she also liked sports, especially the feeling of sweating after doing a set of training, as if all the unhappiness and sadness had disappeared.

I took a shower and went back to the front desk to check today's results.

There were two old men at the door, one of whom was holding a leaflet in his hand, looked at it carefully, and asked the old lady next to him uncertainly, "Coco, is this here?" ”

The old lady glanced up at the words on it and nodded, "That's it!" Let's go. ”

The two pushed the door in, saw a girl sitting at the bar, and asked, "May I ask if this is the Letong Fitness Club?" That one...... Is Jole here? ”

Qiao Le hurriedly came out and brought them a stool to sit down, "Hello grandparents, I am, do you have anything to do?" ”

The two glanced at each other, pursed their lips and smiled, and whispered, "The vision is not bad, just like you." ”

"Well, of course I have a good eye."

The two people who spoke were Mu Nanyi and Su Ke, who had just returned from a trip to a certain country, and after inquiring, they knew that the girl who was with Mu Qing was Qiao Le, so they came to take a look, but Qiao Le didn't recognize it.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you, do you have any activities here?"

"Do you want to work out?" Qiao Le stared at Mu Nanyi in surprise, looking about sixty years old from the outside, but there were really no people of such age in the store who came to exercise, and she couldn't say, "If it's for you to exercise, I recommend getting this card, it's not expensive, and there are some equipment that is specially provided for you." ”

Qiao Le said, pointing to a certain package on the single page.

Mu Nanyi had seen it a long time ago, and knew that Qiao Le's recommendation was correct, so he looked at Su Ke and took out a card for her.

"Little girl, we'll do this."

"Okay."

Let's not talk about whether it is refreshing or not, I still came to apply for a card for fitness at such an old age, Qiao Le met it for the first time, and after going through the formalities, I handed him the card.

"Grandpa, this is your card, put it away, you can come directly next time."

"Okay, thank you, by the way, can you leave a number of yours for Coco? So that next time we come to you directly. ”

"Absolutely." Qiao Le reported her mobile phone number, still thinking in her heart, at such an old age, she still calls her by her nickname, should she be more affectionate when she is young?

The two saved their mobile phone numbers, and just turned around to leave, when they saw a car parked at the door, their faces changed instantly.

"Little girl, where is your bathroom?"

"Here, I'll take you there."

Before he could take two steps, a small figure ran in.

"Sister!" Rui Bao rushed over and hugged Qiao Le, "You haven't picked me up from school for a long time, and you promised me to come to see me as long as you are free?" Your words don't count! ”

"Rui Bao is good, isn't this my sister a guest? I'm too busy to have time, I'm sorry! ”

Rui Bao stretched out his little head to look at the two people over there, and looked a little familiar from the back, and suddenly remembered, and ran over to see that it was!

"Grandpa and grandma! Why are you here? ”

Mu Nanyi desperately covered his face, but he still recognized it, and sighed helplessly, this little great-grandson is too smart!

"We ...... Let's borrow a restroom here. ”

Wait, Qiao Le noticed what Rui Bao called them, and looked at them in surprise, Rui Bao called them too grandpa and grandma, that is to say...... Are they Mu Qing's grandparents?

"I'm sorry, grandparents, I didn't know you were ......"

"It's okay, we're not going to let you know." Su Ke rubbed Ruibao's head, blaming this little kid, he wanted to come over quietly to observe the situation, but he was ruined by this kid.

"Sister, my grandpa and grandma just came back from vacation, just to celebrate my birthday, can you come along?" Rui Bao looked at Qiao Le with wide eyes, eager for her to be with him.

"I ...... I have something to do in the evening. ”

It's not that Qiao Le is unwilling, it's just that she wants to go to Mu's house for dinner, and she always has to see Mu Qing's parents, they are all people from a well-behaved family, and how can a person like her be accepted? As soon as he thought of the way they looked at him, Qiao Le didn't want to go.

Her hesitation, in Ruibao's opinion, is not like that.

"Sister, are you dating your dad at night, so you didn't come to my birthday? I'm not happy anymore! You don't want me anymore with your daddy! Ruibao angrily turned away from her.

"Ruibao...... How so? I didn't date your father, I just ......" Qiao Le asked for help from Na Mu Nanyi and Su Ke, and they couldn't help it.

"Okay, okay, I'll promise you." Qiao Le couldn't help it, in the face of Ruibao's coquettishness and anger, she had nothing to do.
