Chapter 48: Confessing the Truth
Originally, they made an appointment with Chen Yingqiu to go shopping together before leaving, but Qiao Xing didn't see Chen Yingqiu's figure for a long time. thought that Chen Yingqiu might have been stumped by something again, so he was late.
But fortunately, she, a big idler, didn't have anything to do, so she simply sat on the sofa and casually found a magazine Dafa time.
Because I have been here a few times before, the clerks here all know Qiao Xing, after all, a gold owner like her is not something that can be met every day, and Qiao's daughter is how many people want to get close.
Seeing Qiao Xing sitting down, the clerks served tea and snacks for her, and patiently recommended new styles for her this season. Qiao Xing also patiently selected carefully.
"Mr. Jiang, you are here, my wife's clothes have arrived, I will go and get them for you now."
"Okay." The low and mellow boy rang in his ears, and the person on the sofa visibly stiffened for a moment.
People are like this, the more you want to avoid them, the easier it is to meet them.
Qiao Xing didn't have anything unusual, calmly put down the magazine, carefully selected a few sets, and then handed the card to the clerk to check out. The coherent movements were natural, and she ignored the burning gaze behind her.
Soon the clerk brought the wrapped clothes to her and said politely, "Welcome to the next visit." ”
"Thank you." Qiao Xing smiled as a result, turned around and left, deliberately pretending not to see Jiang Yifan standing at the door.
He just stood there, looking at Qiao Xing with burning eyes, and for a moment, Qiao Xing felt that he might fall into it with one careful step.
This is the first time we have met alone after the wedding, no, it should be a chance encounter. Jiang Yifan knew that Qiao Xing was deliberately avoiding him, so he naturally wouldn't let her succeed. The long legs stood in front of Qiao Xing with one step.
Qiao Xing took a deep breath angrily, then raised his head and smiled and said to Jiang Yifan: "Ah, what a coincidence, brother-in-law, you are also here to buy things?" ”
Jiang Yifan's eyes sank, she was deliberately angry with him, so she deliberately wanted to call him brother-in-law. Jiang Yifan stood in front of Qiao Xing, did not speak, and did not mean to get out of the way.
Qiao Xing felt that if she didn't leave, she would definitely be forced to get angry in public by Jiang Yifan, so she was patient and tried her best to squeeze out a good-looking smile: "Then you continue, I'll go first." ”
"Wait for me outside." As he passed by, he suddenly spoke, and his tone was not hurried or slow, as if it meant a command. Qiao Xing only felt a little funny, and let out a cold "heh", laughing at him for being too arrogant. Why did he get to this point, he still had the confidence to think that she would listen to him.
When Jiang Yifan chased him out, Qiao Xing was naturally gone. And what he didn't know was that when he looked for her like a madman at the entrance of the mall, she also hid in the corner and covered her mouth, and her tears were so unassuming, falling down one by one.
And Jiang Yifan also realized that some things really couldn't be delayed any longer, he had already lost her once, and he didn't want to do it a second time.
When Qiao Fei received the call, Qiao Xing had already returned home, packed his things, and prepared to board the plane the next day.
"Shouldn't you say goodbye to my sister before you leave?"
Qiao Fei's tone was light, as if yesterday's events had not affected her much.
Qiao Xing smiled slightly embarrassedly on the other end of the phone: "Didn't I see your newlywed Yan'er, afraid of disturbing you?"
The two of you and I are talking about some innocuous topics. In the end, Qiao Fei couldn't help it, so she suddenly asked Qiao Xing: "Do you really have any questions you want to ask me?"
"Do you know why he agreed to marry me?"
Qiao Xing didn't answer, burying her head absent-mindedly stirring the coffee in this cup, and seeing that she didn't answer, Qiao Fei asked herself: "It's just that I need a marriage partner, and he happens to be the most satisfactory candidate for my parents." First, he was raised by them, and secondly, he didn't have to worry about the Qiao family's family business being coveted by outsiders in the future, and then he ......"
At this point, Qiao Fei suddenly stopped, as if it was difficult to speak, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "Moreover, my father thinks that if he marries Jiang Yifan, he will not be afraid of becoming an opponent with his 'extraordinary' in the future, and he can even pocket him together." Speaking of which, I am just a chess piece in his hand, and Jiang Yifan is no exception. ”
The loneliness in Qiao Fei's eyes stung Qiao Xing deeply: "Then why do you still agree to marry him?"
Qiao Fei smiled bitterly: "Do you think I have the right to disagree?" My life has never been controlled by me, didn't the incident of An Yibai already explain everything? ”
"But Jiang Yifan was originally their adopted son, won't Qiao's and Feifei be a family in the future?" Qiao Xing's eyes showed puzzlement, but in fact, he probably thought of something in his heart.
The second uncle's city is very deep, maybe he has never regarded Jiang Yifan as a member of his Qiao family.
"What about a family? Family affection is the most vulnerable thing compared to his interests, and he ...... for the sake of interests."
Qiao Fei wanted to speak and stopped, unable to hide the anger on his face, and realized for a moment that he almost said something he shouldn't have said, and diverted Qiao Xing's attention by drinking coffee.
Qiao Xing would only be so resentful when she recalled An Yibai's things back then, in fact, if she thought about it carefully, then many things in the future might not happen.
"What about Jiang Yifan? Does he really want to marry you? He...... Love you? Qiao Xing asked this question with great difficulty, which she had wanted to ask for a long time.
Qiao Fei smiled bitterly again and shook his head, Qiao Xing began to be a little desperate to get a definite answer, "Then why did he agree to marry you?" ”
"It's not that you don't know him, as long as it's my parents, he always obeys his words.
My dad was getting older, and he knew that I wouldn't take over his business, so he turned his attention to Jiang Yifan. It's just that he was afraid that the identity of a son would not be able to keep Jiang Yifan's heart, so he used the identity of a son-in-law again, so that he could be foolproof. ”
He said in a calm tone: "You know that he bought a house outside, and he has been living alone all these years, and his house has not even been entered by my parents."
A few days ago, he had acute gastroenteritis and needed to be hospitalized, so I took his keys to his house and prepared to help him pack a few changes of clothes and daily necessities. None of this is the point, the point is that when I pushed open his closet, I realized that he was the same as me, and there lived in his heart a person who wanted to love but could not love.
Not only did he have clothes in his closet, but he also hid several women's clothes, and not only that, but he also hid underwear and underwear. Do you know whose that is? ”
Qiao Xing thought at first that she was saying that Jiang Yifan had someone outside, but the next second she suddenly woke up. When I came back last year, it was summer, and Mo Jinyu happened to have something to do that day and didn't accompany her. It rained on the way back from paying homage to her parents, and the road was not easy to take a taxi, and she was already soaking wet when she returned to the Blue Mountains North Garden.
The next day, I was in a hurry, and before I had time to wash my clothes, I left them at home and didn't take them with me. No wonder I came back this time to ask Aunt Zhang, but Aunt Zhang said that she had never seen her dress.
Qiao Xing is right, Jiang Yifan is really a pervert. ”
In the face of Qiao Fei's deliberate temptation, Qiao Xing didn't dare to face her and simply changed the topic: "Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to try on a wedding dress?"
But who knew that the topic change was not successful, Qiao Fei shook his head again and again and sighed: "Qiao Xing, do you really plan not to tell me for the rest of your life?"
After hearing this, Qiao Xing looked at Qiao Fei with wide eyes in horror: "You, you know everything?"
Qiao Fei looked at Qiao Xing's appearance, and finally confirmed his previous guess.
"I'm not sure if I really know, but now I'm sure. So, are you planning not to tell me for the rest of your life, and then when I get married to Jiang Yifan, you will continue to 'wander the world', and then let me become a bad person who takes my sister's heart? ”
Qiao Xing didn't seem to understand the meaning of Qiao Fei's words, it stands to reason that Qiao Fei knew that Jiang Yifan secretly had a leg with her, shouldn't he angrily give her a few big mouths, and then angrily scold her for being shameless? But what does Qiao Fei's face mean by the gloomy look on his face now.
"The dress is yours, isn't it? I remember the one you wore when you came back last year. Aunt Zhang took it back to my house from Blue Mountain Beiyuan to wash it, and then Jiang Yifan came back and the clothes disappeared, you said that it was a coincidence that I found it in his closet. ”
"What are you talking about? Anyway, the person who married him was you, and even if he and I had something, it was a thing of the past. Don't worry, I promise you that I will never appear in front of you again after this time, and I will not disturb your life. ”
"Qiao Xing, Qiao Xing, what should I say to understand! The person he loves is that you marry me, but my parents just want it. ”
"But what about you, what are you going to do?"
Qiao Fei smiled at the corners of her mouth, and the sunlight shone on her through the window, as if covered with a layer of golden light. "I've had enough of this life for a long time, I want to pursue what I want, in fact, I envy you for traveling the world all these years, and I want to give it a try."
Qiao Fei didn't tell Qiao Xing that it was also a dream she once shared with another person.
"Don't worry, I just had a wedding with him, I didn't get a license and didn't have a room, he is still yours."
Qiao Xing was ashamed and didn't dare to look up, no matter what, she was acting as this third party.
"Qiao Fei, I feel even more embarrassed when you treat me so well."
"We don't need so much explanation between the two of us, you just need to remember that no matter what happens, you are my sister."
Qiao Fei felt very sorry for Qiao Xing, but more than distressed, she felt guilty, this fool obviously didn't do anything to be sorry for her, but she didn't dare to face her, the person who should feel sorry was her Qiao Fei.
If Qiao Xing knew the truth in the future, would she still be willing to call her sister?
Qiao Fei saw Qiao Xing's thoughtful look, so he asked, "What are you thinking?"
Qiao Xing smiled helplessly: "I'm thinking, maybe this is the crux of our love." Too often, we choose to remain silent when we can solve problems that can be solved by opening our mouths. I think now, if he had been willing to tell me the truth earlier, then you and I wouldn't be as embarrassed as we are now. ”
