Chapter 171 Grit your teeth
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xia Nuanxin became ill, and she was sick for a whole month.
During this month, she doesn't like to communicate with anyone, and she doesn't like to laugh anymore, she pulls the corners of her mouth with a smile on everyone, which makes people panic, wishing she might as well not laugh.
When Xia Nuanxin came back, she learned that the problem of Qiao's Group had been solved with the help of Lin Yao. So she didn't show the photo to Qiao Yu, but instead collected it into a hidden folder.
After all, this is also the last and only connection between her and Huo Beixiao.
The problem of Qiao's Group was successfully solved, and Qiao Yu was naturally happy to unload his burden, and began to run to Xia Nuanxin here for three days and two ends.
Xia Nuanxin is bored when she stays alone in the house, and she is always prone to cranky thoughts, but with Qiao Yu here, it is more lively.
It's been four months, Xia Nuanxin's belly has taken on an obvious shape, and even Qiu Yating can't hide it.
But I don't know why, Qiu Yating didn't ask much, as if she already knew about it, but she was more attentive to Xia Nuanxin's care.
However, recently, she has been doing her best to prepare for the shareholders' meeting in two days, and sometimes she even stays overnight with David Edmond in the company, so at home, she basically relies on Qiao Yu to take care of her.
Xia Nuanxin understands Qiu Yating very well, and she feels very sorry for her, and has always let her rest assured to be busy with work. On the contrary, it was Qiu Yating who felt ashamed of her daughter.
Since she was a child, she has not fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother, and this daughter is about to give birth to a little grandson, but she still can't find time to take care of it. Throwing herself into a busy and stressful job with guilt suddenly made her look a lot older.
On this day, it was a rainy day, Qiao Yu came early in the morning, took care of Xia Nuanxin and had breakfast, the two sat in the living room while watching TV, and chatted with each other.
"Didn't you already know about my company?" Qiao Yu carefully peeled an apple peel in his hand, looking focused.
"Huh?" Xia Nuanxin turned her head slightly, she was watching the recent hit mother-in-law and daughter-in-law battle on TV, and she laughed when she saw it, and tears broke out of the corners of her eyes, "What do you say about Guo Beichao?" β
Qiao Yu nodded, handed the peeled apple to Xia Nuanxin, and then showed Xia Nuanxin the whole uninterrupted apple peel in his hand.
Xia Nuanxin smiled helplessly, tapped Qiao Yu with his fingertips, didn't say anything, but answered Qiao Yu's previous question: "Having said that, that matter is so big, you actually hide it from me, it's really not interesting." β
Qiao Yu wrinkled his nose and said, "You are pregnant, why are you telling you this?" It's not going to help you worry. When the time comes, I will break my body. β
Xia Nuanxin smiled: "How can I be so fragile? It's not papier-mΓ’chΓ©. We're all friends, and I want to do what I can...... Well, in the end, though, I still couldn't do anything. By the way, Lin Yao will never help people for no reason, what benefits did he ask for from your Qiao family? β
Qiao Yu went to get another apple's hand and stopped.
He frowned, recalling the scene after Guo Beichao left that day.
When Lin Yao asked to marry Qiao's family, Qiao Yu's reaction was relatively large, but to his surprise, Old Man Qiao didn't agree to this marriage.
"Why?" Xia Nuanxin raised her eyebrows, "Before Qiao...... Well, isn't the reason why my uncle arranged for us to go on a blind date just to be able to join forces? Now that he has changed to the Lin family, which has better conditions, why does he disagree? β
Qiao Yu's face froze, and he suddenly turned around and stopped talking.
Xia Nuanxin sensed that something was wrong, reached out to grab Qiao Yu's arm, and asked, "Did you say something that shouldn't be said?" β
Qiao Yu shook his arm, but instead of shaking off Xia Nuanxin's hand, he was grabbed tighter by her, and he said in a long voice in vain: "It's really not, it's just that the old man suddenly changed his attention......"
"Impossible." Xia Nuan looked at Qiao Yu suspiciously, she and Qiao Huifeng had not met a few times, but as far as she knew about the senior leaders, once they gave instructions, they would never change them easily, which was a necessary quality for the general manager of a group.
Suddenly, Xia Nuanxin remembered something, she slapped Qiao Yu's arm heavily, pointed at him and said in disbelief: "You won't be ......"
Xia Nuan thought carefully about the words: "You won't tell him about us...... The two of us ......" Xia Nuanxin's fingers pointed back and forth between Qiao Yu and herself, her face full of incredulity.
Seeing that it was exposed, Qiao Yu didn't seem to want to hide it anymore, after all, this matter, without the cooperation of the parties involved, he alone would not be able to play the whole play, he suddenly turned to look at Xia Nuanxin, and said solemnly:
"Actually, it's a little more exaggerated than this......" Qiao Yu's eyes slowly walked around Xia Nuanxin's abdomen, and then continued what he had not finished speaking, "I told the old man, me and you, the two of us...... ...... having children"
Qiao Yu's thin but powerful index finger pointed at Xia Nuanxin's stomach, and then immediately stood up before she could react, and instantly turned around and hid behind another single sofa.
Immediately after, a beige hug with the sound of whirring wind came head-on......
If it weren't for Qiao Yu's quick movements, he would have been smashed by this "murder weapon" this time.
One pillow was not enough, Xia Nuanxin picked up the blanket covering her body again, rubbed it and threw it towards Qiao Yu, until she threw away all the things she could throw at hand, she stopped and looked at Qiao Yu breathlessly.
Anger started in his heart, but he was helpless: "I said how could Qiao Huifeng inject NuanHeart for no reason, it turned out to be ...... It turns out that you are talking nonsense behind my back! β
"What's there? Everyone takes what they need, and they don't lose anything. Qiao Yu poked his head out from behind the sofa and saw that Xia Nuanxin really had nothing at hand, so he sat down on the single sofa leisurely, and put his two long legs on the armrests of the sofa, looking leisurely and complacent.
Xia Nuanxin glanced at Qiao Yu with disgust, and continued to admonish bitterly: "Qiao Yu, don't you understand that you can't eat food indiscriminately?" You tell your dad so, we'll ...... in the future What do we do next? β
Qiao Yu shrugged his shoulders and looked indifferent: "What to do?" This is the general trend, and if I don't say that, your company won't get the capital injection...... If you can't get the capital injection, isn't it going to go out of business? Once you go out of business, you're going to be sad again, and I don't want you to be sad...... So that's all I can say. My intentions are actually good. β
"......" Xia Nuanxin was almost laughed at angrily, she gritted her teeth and continued to accuse, "Okay, just when you lied to your father for our company at the beginning, and said that we were dating, forget it, then ...... What about children? β
Qiao Yu scratched his head very indifferently, and smiled cheaply: "Isn't that just because the relationship is not so powerful, you can break up...... Lin Yao's grandson has been encouraging me to let me break up with you, so I just told them directly that the two of us have ...... Raw rice is cooked and matured, and even the baby has a ......"
"Stinky Qiao Yu! You dare to use me as a shield! If you say that, how will it end in the future! Xia Nuan was anxious, but he didn't dare to make too many moves, so he had to sit and scold a few words without rain.
Qiao Yu has thick skin, and he has long been immune to Xia Nuanxin's set, he saw that Xia Nuanxin calmed down, so he got up and sat back beside her. Shoved her shoulder.
"Hey......"
Xia Nuanxin frowned and moved to the side, ignoring it.
"Oops...... Don't ignore me......" Qiao Yu moved his ass and pushed her again.
In this way, several times back and forth, when Xia Nuanxin was able to retreat to the floor again, she finally shouted impatiently: "What are you doing, if you have something to say, say it quickly!" The gentleman doesn't move his hands! β
Qiao Yu leaned his head over angrily, and looked at Xia Nuanxin's face carefully with big eyes: "What?" Really angry? β
Xia Nuanxin rolled her eyes angrily: "What can you do if you are angry?" It's already like this, and I can only find a chance to make it clear. β
"What's there to say...... Qiao Yu muttered, "It's a big deal that we really do a fake show, I really don't mind." β
Xia Nuanxin was two big, gritted his teeth and said, "I mind!" Good no good! I mind! β
The two of them were noisy, a morning passed quickly, and Qiao's group had an important meeting in the afternoon, Qiao Huifeng raised his face, and repeatedly emphasized that Qiao Yu must participate, and he is not allowed to be late.
No matter how disobedient Qiao Yu is, he is also Qiao Huifeng's biological son, seeing that he is a lot older, he is afraid that he will blatantly oppose him, and he is afraid that if the old man gets angry, he will have to take the pot of Qiao's Group early.
So before twelve o'clock at noon, he left Xia Nuanxin's home for the first time.
Xia Nuanxin stood in place for a while, and the smile on her face gradually retracted. , she touched her phone and dialed an unfamiliar number.
This is a transoceanic phone, on the other end of the phone, it is a nodding friend who has only met each other, but I don't know why, Xia Nuanxin can only think of her at this moment.
"Hello, is this Su Luozhan?"
After the phone was connected, Xia Nuan was afraid that the other party would think it was a harassing call, so he hurriedly and politely reported to his home.
There was silence for a while, and then, a pleasant voice like a silver bell happily passed through the earpiece and entered Xia Nuanxin's ears, so that she had to subconsciously take out some mobile phones, so as not to deafen her ears with the other party's ultra-high decibels.
ββ¦β¦ Sister Heart! It's you! How could you call me! β
The voice on the other end of Sulozhan was very noisy, not like it was in a school, but in some public property.
"Luo Zhan, after a while, I also plan to go to the United States for a while, can you be tired and act as a tour guide for Sister Xin?"
Xia Nuanxin heard the sound of clicking footsteps over there, and then the environment was completely quiet. Su Luozhan's voice came again, still unable to hide her excitement: "Of course it's good, sister, when are you coming?" This time is just dissatisfied, and there is absolutely time to entertain you. β
Xia Nuan sighed for a moment and replied, "It's only for this week or two." I'll contact you when the time comes. β
