Chapter 61: Time
Qiao Le's sudden departure caught the Mu family off guard, without any warning, Mu Qing thought that she had just gone out for a while, but she didn't expect that no one answered the phone, and she couldn't find anyone when she went to the gym, and asked Qiao Feifei again, and said that she hadn't seen her.
She can't be found in these places, where else can Qiao Le go?
left without leaving a word, and the key is that she also took her clothes with her, indicating that this was not a short departure.
found Cheng Yan again, Cheng Yan only said that she was not there, and did not say much else.
Mu Qing instructed Yuan Jing to find out where Qiao Le went, no matter where he was, he always needed a reason to leave!
However, at the end of the day, the news to him was that he didn't know where Qiao Le was, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.
In the afternoon of the same day, Xu Wenrui Duan Yu and Liao Baiyun gathered in Mu Qing's office together, they all heard about Qiao Le's departure, and knew that Mu Qing was in a hurry, so they came over to find a way.
"Brother, did you make her angry?" Liao Baiyun was the first to speak and directly accused Mu Qing.
He grimaced and nodded, "Yes, I her off because I didn't tell him the truth." ”
"What? What truth? When they heard this, it seemed as if there was something they didn't know.
At this moment, Tang Haotian came over, holding a document in his hand and putting it in front of Mu Qing, "This is a paternity test that Qiao Le came to me to do early this morning, Mu Qing, this is the fact you are hiding from her, right?" ”
Two paternity tests were made, one was handed over to Qiao Le, and the other was here, Qiao Le told Tang Haotian that this one must be handed over to Mu Qing himself.
Inside is the identification of Qiao Le and Ruibao, showing that they are mother and son, that is, Qiao Le knows it.
The others weren't very surprised, they had guessed something before, how could Mu Qing be so good to a woman for no reason? Then there must be a reason, either it is someone who has slept with it before, or it is the child's mother, and sure enough, Qiao Le is really Ruibao's biological mother.
"Brother! You already know this, don't you? You already knew that Qiao Le was Ruibao's mother, why didn't you say it earlier! You should have told her when Lu Bang came before! "Liao Baiyun can't understand Mu Qing's brain circuit, if he said it earlier, wouldn't there be nothing?
Mu Qing pursed his lips and didn't speak, he had his own plans in his heart, but ...... Qiao Le couldn't have known about her connection with Ruibao so quickly, someone must have said something! Thinking of someone, he rushed out of the office without saying a word.
"Huh? Where are you going? That's not all there is to it! ”
Mu Qing drove to the downstairs of Cheng Yan's apartment, took out the key from his pocket and went in directly, it was not easy for him to get the key? It's just that because Jo is happy, he doesn't want her to be even more angry.
"Didn't anyone tell you that you were trespassing on a house?" Cheng Yan sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed and said lightly.
This sentence sounded a little familiar, and Mu Qing remembered that Qiao Le had said it to him a long time ago.
Ignoring him, he went into the inner room and walked around, Qiao Le was not there, and there was nothing about her.
"Where's Jole?"
"How do I know? She's your wife, not mine! ”
"You know for sure!"
"I said I don't know!"
As soon as Cheng Yan's words were finished, Mu Qing had already swung his fist, he had long wanted to beat him up, and today was inevitable.
The two of you punch me and kick me, the movements are clever and never let the other party have a chance to breathe, Cheng Yan fought with him for a while before he found out that Mu Qing was actually a practitioner, he really didn't see it, and he didn't dare to take it lightly, and then Mu Qing's tricks.
After half an hour, Mu Qing grabbed his two hands, while Cheng Yan twisted his legs and did not back down.
"Say, where the hell is Qiao Le?"
"I don't know when Qiao Le left, besides, you have great powers, how can you not know where she went?"
No matter how powerful a person is, if someone wants to avoid him, he can't find it, at this time, Mu Qing was finally anxious, and he realized how much Qiao Le didn't want to meet him, and last night's tenderness and lingering seemed to be a silent goodbye.
"I really don't know, if I knew I would come and ask you?" Mu Qing let go of his hand, and at the same time, Cheng Yan also let go.
Cheng Yan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed him one, Mu Qing subconsciously took it, just clicked on it, remembering that Qiao Le said that he was not allowed to smoke, would he smoke and she would come back?
The two sat side by side on the couch, each smoking a cigarette and slowly exhaling the smoke.
"You don't have to worry, I think she may have gone out for a walk, so she will be back soon, no matter where you go, you are husband and wife after all!" Cheng Yan patted him on the shoulder.
When he said this, he felt a little lost in his heart, no matter how they are husband and wife, and he can only be a friend, maybe not even a friend, Cheng Yan often thinks, what kind of feelings does he have for Qiao Le?
Is it like? Or do you think she's funny and that's why you're interested? Or was it because of Jiang Xichen that he deliberately approached Qiao Le?
He didn't know, and he didn't want to think about it, many things changed after thinking deeply, and Cheng Yan didn't want to do this.
After sitting for a while, Mu Qing saw that he really didn't seem to know where Qiao Le was, so he had to leave.
When he walked to the door, Cheng Yan suddenly said at the moment when he was about to close the door: "By the way, Qiao Feifei came to the house before and said something to Qiao Le, it seems to be about the child she was back then, and then I helped her and told her that her son is Ruibao, and she may be angry that you already knew about it but didn't tell her." ”
With that, he quickly closed the door and locked it inside.
Mu Qing glared angrily at a pair of eyes, sure enough! still can't get out of the relationship with him, this Cheng Yan, just can't see him well!
Watching Mu Qing leave, Cheng Yan took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to an unfamiliar number: I sent Mu Qing away according to your request, but ...... Where the hell are you?
Qiao Le was lying on the chaise longue at this time, basking in the sun comfortably, the sun was shining on her body, and the most conspicuous thing was the small and delicate snuffbox she wore in her throat, and the kitten in it was vivid.
This is the one that Cheng Yan bought in the jewelry store that time, when Qiao Le went to Cheng Yan's house this morning to say goodbye to him, he just entered the door and saw Cheng Yan lying on the sofa, holding this in his hand, he was distracted, and was snatched away by Qiao Le, and saw the pattern on it, but Cheng Yan blushed and asked her to return it to him.
Cheng Yan will blush one day? It's really strange, just looking at the little cat on it, Qiao Le probably guessed that this description must be her, and sure enough, after a few words, Cheng Yan admitted it, so this naturally became Qiao Le's thing.
Seeing the content on the text message, Qiao Le did not reply, deleted the message and turned it off.
At the door of the room behind her, the old lady was carrying a stool to come out, Qiao Le hurried over when she saw this, "Grandma, I'll help you!" ”
"You rarely have time to come back, how can I ask you to do rough work?"
"It's okay, didn't I always help you when I was a child!"
The old lady smiled, glanced at her, and came back alone without a sound, and did not say how long she lived, as shrewd as she was, and quickly thought of something, and did not say anything.
"Okay, then it just so happens that all the things at home are left to you, I'm old, so I'll take a good rest."
"No problem!"
Qiao Le didn't go anywhere, just in the countryside of her grandmother's house, from Ancheng city is only an hour's drive, in the morning I went to the hospital to see the appraisal report, she was surprised and sad, no wonder she and Ruibao get along so well, it turned out to be a biological mother and son, and it was doomed in the dark.
However, what she can't forgive is Mu Qing, who knew everything from the beginning, but didn't say a word to her from beginning to end, this is deception, if he reveals a little bit, she won't leave without saying a word, it just so happens that she also wants to take time to accompany her grandmother, and she also wants to be quiet.
The news of Qiao Le's departure soon became known to everyone who knew her, including Liao Xinyue, Rui Bao even went home from school, crying and shouting to see Qiao Le, Mu Qing got the news and returned to the old house.
Su Ke Mu Nanyi, Mu Chenyi, his wife and Rui Bao were all waiting for him in the living room, wondering why Qiao Le left, and a large part of this must be due to Mu Qing.
"Tell me why Qiao Le left suddenly." A large family sat on the sofa and questioned him.
"Because I deceived her, Ruibao is Qiao Le's biological son."
A short sentence explained everything, and the most surprised were Liao Xinyue and Ruibao.
"You say Rui Bao is Qiao Le's child? Really? ”
Mu Qing handed her the paternity test, and it was clearly written, "This is Qiao Le's own identification with Ruibao's hair, it's true, I picked up Ruibao at the back door of the hospital five years ago, and I knew that Qiao Le was born and raised, and at that time she had been sent abroad by the Qiao family, so it led to a series of things that happened later." ”
Liao Xinyue looked at it carefully over and over again, and Rui Bao also stared at her side, although he didn't know what was written on it, and he didn't know what this identification was, but he understood a little, that is, his biological mother was Qiao Le.
"Dad, are you telling the truth? My mom is Sister Jole? ”
"Of course it's true, there's no need to lie to you."
"Grandma, I have a mother! Grandpa and grandma, I have a mother! Ruibao was happy to tell everyone the news, but ...... Qiao Le wasn't there, and he still couldn't really be happy.
"Where did Qiao Le go? Does she already know it all? ”
"Yes, I know it all, it's me who is wrong, I didn't tell her at first, and she should be angry." Mu Qing can fully understand Qiao Le's feelings, he has been deceived by the person he likes for so long, if he can forgive him immediately, it will not be Qiao Le.
"You are really, the last time Lu Bangwan was here, you should have said it directly! You have to drag it out until now, and you can see how angry people go! Liao Xinyue saw that Qiao Le was Ruibao's biological mother and protected her, "Poor Ruibao just had a mother and it's gone, you hurry up and get it back for me, don't go home if you don't find it!" ”
"That's it, if you don't find your daughter-in-law, what are you doing here?" Mu Chenyi also echoed.
Looking at the second elder next to him, he also nodded in agreement, Mu Qing has no status in this family at all.
"Dad, if you don't get Mommy back, I'll ...... I won't call you Daddy anymore, huh! "Ruibao is also a temperamental person, and finally had a mother before he could be a good coquettish and was lost by his unobtrusive father.
Mu Qing was also anxious, but there was no news, and he was also very helpless, so he had no choice but to let people continue to look for where Qiao Le was.
It is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place, and they never imagined that Qiao Le was in the countryside of Ancheng and did not go anywhere.
Mu Qing specially asked Jennifer if Qiao Le had contacted him, but what he got was a reprimand from Jennifer.
"I handed over my family baby to you, and now you have lost her, and you are still coming to me for someone? Are you embarrassed? ”
Mu Qing looked gray and didn't ask any more questions.
Time passed day by day, Qiao Le accompanied her grandmother in the countryside, she didn't know anything about Ancheng, she was happy and happy, but she suffered Mu Qing and ...... His group of friends.
As soon as it was time for dinner, Xu Wenrui and a few people were called over by Mu Qing's life-threatening serial urge, and began to eat first, and did not let them leave after eating, stayed to play cards and mahjong, and never let them go home until twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
For a week, several people couldn't stand it anymore and complained again and again.
"Lao Mu, don't toss us, I still want to live a few more years!"
"That's it, my family An Tong is still waiting for me to go back...... Xu Wenrui is even more miserable, he was finally with An Tong, and he was called by Mu Qing to play cards with him for a few days.
Mu Qing doesn't care, he only uses one reason: a person is too boring.
"You're bored, go find your wife!"
"Shut up!" As soon as Mu Qing finished speaking, he pushed the row of mahjong in front of him, and said easily, "Hu." ”
"It's unreasonable! It's inhumane! Why am I desperately playing mahjong with you, and I still have to lose money! Xu Wenrui and Duan Yu were lying on the table and shouting aggrievedly, Tang Haotian shook his head and sighed, this also complained about Mu Qing, he was also anxious, if he didn't have entertainment, I was afraid he would go crazy.
How could Mu Qing really ask them to take the money? Every time he won, he would always invite them to dinner the next day, and he didn't make any money.
got up and walked to the window, felt a cigarette on it, Tang Haotian came over and asked him for one.
"I remember you didn't quit smoking?" The two took a sip at the same time, and Tang Haotian asked him.
Mu Qing smiled slightly, "It's quitting, it's not that no one is urging me to quit smoking now, so I smoke." ”
He looked into the distance, his expression was indifferent, but his left hand holding the edge of the window was tightly gripped, and he had been restrained, restraining the pain of longing in his heart.
"Isn't there any news from Qiao Le yet?"
"Nope."
"I think she'll be okay now, don't worry, she'll forgive you after a long time."
Forgive? Mu Qing doesn't ask for her forgiveness, as long as she ...... It's good to be able to be by his side, even if you ignore him, beat him and scold him, don't let him see her.
……
One afternoon a month later, Cheng Yu came to Qiao Le's residence with a huge package, a remote mountain village, tired and panting, he finally couldn't hold back and threw the package on the ground, and sat down.
"Damn, I'm tired of it." After a pause, he shouted at the door, "Qiao Le, you come out for me!" ”
Then I saw a girl with her hair tied up in a high ponytail, wearing a cotton and linen long skirt, and Cheng Yu really didn't recognize her for a while.
"Yo, it's hard work, can you help me carry my things to the yard?" Qiao Le said with a smile.
"Okay." Cheng Yu originally wanted her to help, but when she saw Qiao Le's smile, she didn't know where to throw away the words that she had prepared to move together.
Qiao Le saw that he was sweating profusely, took a towel and brought water to him, "Thank you for your hard work, rest for a while." ”
Cheng Yu was not polite, she felt much better after a glass of water, looked at the road in front of her, and said dissatisfiedly: "Can't you move to the front?" It's too far away for the key car to drive in! It's exhausting for me to carry such a heavy thing. ”
"My grandmother has lived here all her life, and she is reluctant to leave."
"Where's Grandma?"
As she was talking, the old lady came, holding the melons and fruits she had just picked from the field, and saw Cheng Yu greet with a smile, "You are Lele's good friend, right?" Sit down, this fresh melon and fruit is just right to eat at this time. ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for my grandmother."
Cheng Yu didn't want to leave in such a hurry, after such a long time, Qiao Le told him the address where she lived, how could she leave easily?
There is a gazebo in the courtyard, with two reclining chairs below, which should be where Qiao Le and his grandmother are usually here, looking at the surrounding environment, green grass and trees, it is indeed a place to retire.
Qiao Le came out with the fruit, saw that he was looking at the surroundings, and asked, "How is it?" Do you like it here? ”
"It's really good, and it would be nice if I could drive the car in." Cheng Yu took a bite of the fruit, and the click was really crispy.
"I don't understand any emotion, if the car can be driven in casually, is it still in the countryside? It's good that you don't have the feeling of being in the city. ”
Qiao Le lay down on the recliner next to him, and the two of them took a sip of a cup of flower tea at the same time, blowing a gust of breeze, which was also very comfortable.
"You've been here with your grandmother for so long?" Cheng Yan still couldn't believe it.
"Of course, I think it's nice to be here, it's quiet."
It was almost December, and it was a little cold, so Qiao Le got up and took a blanket to cover his body, and asked him, "Would you like to get a coat for you?" ”
"No, I'm still hot." Cheng Yan glanced at her and found that she was wearing a lot, and she was ...... Seems to have gained a little weight, "You've been eating well lately?" Look like you're fat. ”
"If you don't do anything every day, except for eating and sleeping, can you not get fat? If I go out like this, I'm afraid no one will think I'm a fitness instructor. ”
The two chatted casually for a while, Qiao Le didn't mention anything about Ancheng, not even a word from Mu Qing.
"By the way, why don't you ask me how Mu Qing is?" Cheng Yan still couldn't help it.
"How is he?" Qiao Le asked as he spoke, without saying a word more.
Cheng Yan told her about Mu Qing tossing Xu Wenrui and a few people, which caused Qiao Le to laugh, sure enough, this is Mu Qing's style, even if she is not there, he can always live a good life and do everything possible to find the fun of passing the time.
Seeing that she was smiling so brightly, and her eyes fell on the snuffbox she was wearing around her neck, which she had been carrying, Cheng Yan suddenly asked her a question very seriously, "You say, if there is no Mu Qing and the existence of that child, will we be together?" ”
"Don't be funny, okay! We're just friends! Qiao Le shook her head, she never thought that such a thing could happen.
Cheng Yan suddenly got up and came to her, the distance between the two was only five centimeters, Cheng Yan's breath blew on her face, and the two of them were flushed by the warm sun, and they couldn't tell whether they were blushing or involuntarily blushing at the moment.
"You don't know, I like you, don't you?"
Faced with his sudden confession, Qiao Le was a little caught off guard, although he had been joking before, saying that he had his own selfishness, but at this time she didn't see any joke in his eyes, he ...... Is it serious?
"Mu Qing and I haven't divorced yet."
With a poof, Cheng Yan smiled, revealing two good-looking dimples, and flicked her head, "Little girl, I'm just joking, look at you, why are you so serious?" ”
"Am I serious? Or are you serious? Qiao Le raised an eyebrow.
Cheng Yan bowed to the wind, he returned to his seat, afraid that he really couldn't control himself, and he was afraid that he would make other moves, and he wouldn't even have a chance to be friends with her at that time.
"Forget it, it's boring to always quarrel with you, so you plan to hang Mu Qing? Aren't you afraid of other women around him? ”
"I haven't forgiven him yet."
Actually, Qiao Le's heart has long been forgiven, probably a week after returning to the countryside, she thought clearly, since God let her child not die, and it is still a child born with Mu Qing, it means that the fate between them is destined in the dark, God favors it, so what can you do to change it?
But the reason why she hasn't gone back is that she wants to rest for a while and take care of her mood.
It was getting late, Qiao Le finally got up and kept him, "It's rare to come over, let's go back after eating." ”
"I'll keep and eat what you made with your own hands, if not, forget it."
Qiao Le slapped him angrily, "My grandmother is old, are you embarrassed to let her cook herself!" Of course I do! ”
"It hurts!" Cheng Yan dodged with a hippie smile, "Then I'll reluctantly stay." ”
Watching Qiao Le enter, Cheng Yan put away his joking side and looked up at the sun gradually sinking in the west, how he wished that time would stop at that moment just now, so that he could always be by Qiao Le's side.
"I really envy Mu Qing, he has a lifetime to accompany you, and I ...... Only for a short time. ”
Cheng Yan didn't tell Qiao Le that the joke he said to Qiao Le just now was true, he liked Qiao Le, and he didn't remember when it started, and suddenly he liked Qiao Le so much, but ...... It's not to the point of domination, it's good to be able to keep arguing with Qiao Le like this, he is content.
What is that sentence called: friendship is supreme, lovers are not full, it makes sense.
"What are you doing there? Time to eat. When Qiao Le came out of cooking, he saw him staring at the sky in a daze and shouting at him.
"I'm coming!" Cheng Yan jumped off the pavilion and ran in.
After the meal, Cheng Yan still had work the next day, so he didn't stay much and drove away.
The things that Qiao Le asked him to bring over were prepared by Jennifer for her, and some of the things that were bought for her grandmother, let Cheng Yan send them over, he asked her all day long and asked where she lived, since she wanted to come over, how could she do it without doing coolies?
Cheng Yan drove back satisfied, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of the community, he saw Mu Qing's car parked there and blocked him.
"Mr. Mu? Why are you so interested in coming to me so late? Cheng Yan didn't get out of the car, poked his head out and asked with a smile.
Mu Qing stepped forward, stared at him and didn't speak, for a month, he had been letting people follow him quietly to see if he had any news of Qiao Le, but there was no movement at all, every day except for the company is two ends of the house, until this afternoon, he suddenly went to a far away place, felt suspicious, and was blocked here.
"Where the hell does Qiao Le live?"
"She's your wife, what do you ask me for?"
"You really don't know?"
"I really don't know!" Cheng Yan looked innocent, thinking in his heart, he shouldn't know, right? But he walked very carefully, and no one followed him, "If you don't have anything else, don't get in my way, I'm busy." ”
Mu Qing waved his hand and asked Yuan Jing to drive out, watched Cheng Yan's car go in, and was about to get in the car and leave, when he suddenly found something on the ground, squatted down and picked it up, it was a grass, it was estimated that it was stained on the wheel and fell off, this thing ...... He thought of it! There is a place where there are the most such plants, how can Cheng Yan go to the countryside in a good way? Except for Qiao Le, he couldn't think of anyone else.
