Chapter 056: You're Good, You Don't Need to Be Better Than Now

Leaving the He family, knowing that Chu Qiao hadn't woken up yet, Shang Fangyan went to Jingyi Garden non-stop.

Going to Jingyi Garden is not just to see Shang Zi. Regardless of whether Chu Qiao's accident in Jingyi Garden had anything to do with Bai Yun this time, Shang Fangyan just wanted to emphasize to Bai Yun again that Chu Qiao was the wife that he Shang Fangyan recognized, and anyone who touched her would pay the price, including anyone in the Shang family.

When Shang Fangyan arrived, Bai Yun was sitting on the edge of the bed feeding porridge to Shang Zi, who had just woken up, until now, when she thought of how she looked when Shi Zi was dying when she was fished out of the lake, Bai Yun still had palpitations and was afraid.

"Ah Zi, next time you dare to save others at the cost of your own life, you will stay in France for the rest of your life, and never come back to see my mother."

Shang Zi swallowed the white porridge in his mouth. Trying to tuggle the corners of her mouth, "Mother, Chu Qiao is no one else, she is the wife of the eldest brother." ”

"What a wife, she's nothing without my approval and that of your grandmother."

"Mother. Whether you and grandmother approve of it or not, Chu Qiao is my wife, the only wife in my life, if she dies, I will never marry a second person in my life. ”

Before Bai Yun's words fell, Shang Fangyan's low but sonorous voice sounded behind her, the voice was flat but shocking.

Bai Yun looked back at Shang Fangyan at the door, and his face showed a stunned look that he had never seen before.

"Big brother."

Shang Fangyan looked at Shang Zi and smiled gently, nodded, and then walked to the side of the bed, "Ah Zi, thank you." ”

Shang Zi also pursed her lips and smiled, "No, actually...... Sister Chu Qiao fell into the lake to save me, and I should save her. ”

Shang Fangyan walked to the side of the bed and reached out and caressed Shang Zi's hair lovingly. "No matter what, big brother doesn't want anything to happen to you."

Shang Zi smiled, "I'm fine, I just drank a few more sips of lake water." ”

"That's good, have a good rest, big brother will come to see you another day."

"Okay, big brother, hurry up and go home to take care of Sister Chu Qiao."

Shang Fangyan bowed his head slightly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Ayan, don't go." Bai Yun watched Shang Fangyan turn around and was about to leave, and immediately shouted, "Follow me to the study." ”

Shang Zi glanced at Bai Yun, who had a gloomy face, and then pouted at Shang Fangyan, trying to raise his hand to make a "victory" gesture.

Shang Fangyan nodded and smiled in response, and then followed Bai Yun to the study.

......

"Mother, Chu Qiao is still in a coma." Shang Fangyan stood at the door of the study, without the slightest intention of sitting down. "If you don't have anything important, I'll go back first."

Bai Yun sat down on the sofa slowly at this time, picked up the tea cup and took a sip elegantly and leisurely before asking lightly, "Ayan." Could it be that now in your heart, there is only room for Chu Qiao? ”

"She is my wife, and protecting and taking care of my wife and children is my most basic and unshirkable responsibility." Shang Fangyan looked at Bai Yun, his eyes were deep, flashing like a diamond, "My mother taught me to be a responsible man who stresses faith and righteousness since I was a child, and I have never forgotten it. ”

"Responsibility?! Play?! Bai Yun sneered, put the tea cup in his hand heavily on the coffee table, and looked at Shang Fangyan with a little fierceness, "Then what about your responsibility to the Shang family?" What about your responsibility to the Shang family? ”

"Chu Qiao only has a husband I can rely on, but I will still be fine without the Shang family." Shang Fangyan's voice was as light as a cloud, but it had the power of a blizzard.

"What did you say?!" Bai Yun's heart palpitated, and her eyes showed surprise, "You want to tell me now, are you willing to give up the entire Shang family for the sake of Chu Qiao?" ”

"Yes, if my mother and grandmother never accept Chu Qiao, then I will do it."

In fact, Shang Fangyan knew very well that if he gave up his qualification as the first heir of the Shang family, it would only make Chu Qiao fall into a more dangerous situation, whether it was Bai Yun or the old lady, he would not be allowed to give up the entire Shang family for the sake of one Chu Qiao, so what he had to do now was just to retreat and advance, and to give up inheriting the Shang family to blackmail Bai Yun to accept Chu Qiao.

Otherwise, he will face a double dilemma.

"Ayan, you..." Bai Yun was speechless for a while, she didn't expect that her proudest son, the son she had always pinned her hopes on, would actually give up the entire Shang family for a woman like Chu Qiao.

If Shang Fangyan really gave up inheriting the Shang family, then what was her efforts for so many years? Although she still has Shang Yu, but now Shang Yu has been targeted by Interpol, and it is still difficult to protect herself, let alone inherit the entire Shang family.

Moreover, Shang Yu's qualifications are not enough to inherit the entire Shang family and convince the entire Shang family.

Bai Yun looked at Shang Fangyan, there was no hint of joking on his face and eyes, besides, for so many years, he had not shown any interest in the Shang family's family business.

What's even more terrifying is that Shang Fangyan has never said the same thing and will not make repeated decisions.

Therefore, Bai Yun had enough reason to believe that if she did not agree to accept Chu Qiao now, Shang Fangyan would definitely give up taking over the Shang family without hesitation.

"Okay." Bai Yun took a deep breath and suppressed the anger and pain surging in her chest, "Okay, I promise you, Chu Qiao is your wife, with her, I won't force you to marry any woman again." ”

"Then mother will treat Chu Qiao as a relative, and she won't have any bad thoughts about her, right?" What Shang Fangyan wanted was a guarantee that Bai Yun would not have any more thoughts of wanting to hurt Chu Qiao.

Bai Yun gritted her teeth and quickly let go, "Yes, from now on, Chu Qiao is a member of my Shang family, and no one from the Shang family will hurt her." ”

Bai Yun has been the head of the house in the Shang family for more than 20 years, so naturally she will not be untrustworthy, and moreover, for so many years, Shang Fangyan has also respected Bai Yun's mother, and he will not doubt her words.

With a light breath, Shang Fangyan's tense nerves finally relaxed, looking at Bai Yun, Shang Fangyan's eyes swelled with a trace of gratitude, after all, he knew very well that it was indeed a difficult thing for a proud woman like Bai Yun to accept Chu Qiao without knowing anything.

"Thank you, Mother."

"No, you just need to remember that I am your mother, and I will never hurt you."

************

When Chu Qiao woke up, it was already the next morning, and before she woke up, she had a very beautiful dream, she dreamed that a year later, Shang Fangyan helped her regain her son, but her contract marriage with Shang Fangyan did not end a year later, Shang Fangyan fell in love with her, held a grand wedding for her, and announced to the world that Chu Qiao was his legal wife of Shang Fangyan.

At the wedding, she was wearing a white wedding dress, Shang Fangyan was standing on the other end of the red carpet not far away, smiling and waiting for her, while her son and Shang Fangxu stood on her left and right like brothers, they called her "Mommy" together, walked happily with her together, and called Shang Fangyan "Daddy" together, their family of four lived happily together.

Shang Fangyan looked at Chu Qiao, who gradually opened his eyes from a smile, and his whole slightly cool heart seemed to be bathed in the warmest sunlight in the early morning, and gradually began to warm and comfortable.

He couldn't imagine what kind of panic and fear Chu Qiao, who couldn't swim, was when he fell into such a deep lake, and he didn't dare to recall the fear and helplessness he felt when he knew that Chu Qiao was no longer breathing.

At this moment, seeing Chu Qiao open his eyes with a smile on his face, Shang Fangyan could not be more satisfied, his whole world was re-lit because of Chu Qiao's awakening, and it was brilliant and colorful because of Chu Qiao's smile.

"Little Joe, you're awake." Shang Fangxu, who had been guarding the side, shouted excitedly.

Chu Qiao saw two similar faces in front of him, one big and one small, and the corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a smile as warm as the morning sun.

"Xiao Xu, Shang Fangyan..." Although Chu Qiao's voice was very weak, her eyes clearly reflected the shadows of Shang Fangyan and Shang Fangxu, and her eyes were even clearer and more amazing, "I dreamed of you just now." ”

Shang Fangyan looked at the smiling woman in front of him in a daze, and lost his words for a while.

What kind of woman can make Shang Fangyan cherish all his life, before, he never thought about it, but now, he found it.

This woman is Chu Qiao, he must hold her in the palm of his hand all his life, put her at the tip of his heart, and spend his whole life caring for her.

Raising his lips and smiling, Shang Fangyan raised his hand, and his warm fingertips gently fell on Chu Qiao's cheeks, and his eyes were like the most dazzling diamonds under the light, all of which were on Chu Qiao's face.

"What do you dream of us?" He asked.

Chu Qiao looked at Shang Fangyan and smiled.

His countenance was dyed with exhaustion, but it was a soft mess.

With such a husband, how could she not be satisfied, everything is already good now, how dare she hope for a year from now, just let that dream remain in her memory, just think about it occasionally.

"I'm hungry."

At this time, no matter how much warm words there were, as long as Shang Fangyan had a look and a move, Chu Qiao knew all his thoughts.

How lucky she is that Chu Qiao can actually meet a man like Shang Fangyan, even if she is destined to be with him for only one year, she has no regrets in her life.

"Daddy cooked porridge for you, I'll serve it now." As he spoke, Shang Fangxu jumped out of bed like a smoke and ran out.

Chu Qiao and Shang Fangyan both smiled when they looked at Shang Fangxu, and after Shang Fangxu's figure disappeared into the room, they retracted their gaze and looked at each other, their eyes were slender, gentle as water.

"Isn't the porridge you cooked very bad?" Chu Qiao frowned and teased.

Shang Fangyan smiled, lowered his head and kissed Chu Qiao's eyebrows, "The first time I cook it, if it doesn't taste good, you teach me next time." ”

Chu Qiao stared at Shang Fangyan's tired but handsome and timeless face that was close at hand, and his eyes were wet.

With a man like Shang Fangyan willing to wash her hands and make soup for her, what else does she have to complain about and what is not satisfied.

Shaking his head, Chu Qiao smiled with tears in his eyes and said like a flower, "No, I won't teach you." ”

"Why?" Shang Fangyan's warm fingertips rubbed Chu Qiao's cheeks over and over again, extremely gentle.

"It's okay that I'm going to take care of you, and I'm going to be a qualified wife."

Shang Fangyan, a year is so short, how can I be willing to let you learn to cook porridge and cook for me, I just want to use a year to let you remember my good for the rest of your life.

Shang Fangyan chuckled, and the kiss fell on Chu Qiao's eyebrows again, "Chu Qiao, you are fine, very good, you don't need to be better than now." ”

.......

After feeding Chu Qiao and drinking a bowl of porridge, seeing that Chu Qiao was indeed fine, Shang Fangxu obediently went back to his room to sleep, he, like Shang Fangyan, almost didn't sleep all night. Giant lead to the table.

After Shang Fangxu left, Shang Fangyan also lay down on the bed, and then gently hugged Chu Qiao into his arms, his thin lips kissed the soft hair on the top of her head, and whispered, "Chu Qiao." ”

"Hmm." Now, even if he just heard Shang Fangyan call his name, Chu Qiao felt that it was a great happiness.

"Do you want to know who He Yashi is?" Instead of letting Chu Qiao know from others what the reason for He Yashi's existence, it is better to let him tell Chu Qiao himself now.

Chu Qiao's side face was pressed against Shang Fangyan's face, and listening to his powerful heartbeat, he felt that the whole world was stable and silent.

"Yes." Through the thin fabric, Chu Qiao rubbed Shang Fangyan's chest, like a lazy kitten, "It can be seen that He Yashi likes you very much." ”

Shang Fangyan's eyebrows raised slightly, and every time he touched Chu Qiao's body, it was scorching, and his whole body began to tense.

"Are you jealous?"

Chu Qiao raised his head and squinted at Shang Fangyan, then the hand on Shang Fangyan's waist reached into his clothes and pinched him fiercely.

"I didn't."

Shang Fangyan chuckled and grabbed Chu Qiao's fanning hand, put it to his lips and kissed it, "Are you sure?!" ”

Chu Qiao tried hard to pull his hand out of Shang Fangyan's hand, but it was useless to use any force, he glanced at Shang Fangyan, lowered his head with a blushing face and said, "You don't like her, why should I be jealous." ”

Shang Fangyan nodded slightly, no longer joking, and said in a low voice, "The Shang family has a century-old inheritance, the family is huge, and there are many things happening in the family every day, and everything needs to be presided over and taken care of by someone with high status." ”

Chu Qiao nodded slightly, she had only heard that in the past, some big families would select a suitable woman from the family when the heir of the family was still very young to be the heir's wife, that is, the future mistress of the family to accompany her, but she didn't expect this kind of thing to be true, and it would have something to do with herself.

Gently rubbing the back of Chu Qiao's hand, Shang Fangyan continued, "The Shang family has family rules, the male protagonist is the female protagonist, when I was three years old, the family chose the daughters of various families for me as wives to cultivate, and when I was twelve years old, I would choose one of the women I liked from these families that I cultivated. ”

Chu Qiao nodded, so it sees, no wonder He Yashi was arranged to sit at the main table at the old lady's eightieth birthday banquet, and whether it was words, deeds or temperament, He Yashi seemed to be like Bai Yun.

"So, He Yashi actually started going in and out of the Shang family as your fiancΓ©e when you were twelve years old?"

"Hmm."

After receiving Shang Fangyan's affirmative answer, Chu Qiao's heart suddenly contracted, as if he had been pricked by a needle in an instant, and there was a dull pain.

He Yashi is the wife cultivated by the Shang family for Shang Fangyan, that is, after the expiration of their contract, she must leave Shang Fangyan, and then He Yashi will become Shang Fangyan's rightful wife.

Lowering his eyes, even if Shang Fangyan couldn't see it, Chu Qiao also tried to hide the sadness and sadness in his eyes.

"Shang Fangyan, will you marry He Yashi?"

From Chu Qiao's breathing that became solemn, Shang Fangyan felt the change in Chu Qiao's mood, and he knew that she was thinking too much.

"No, I won't marry her, not at any time."

Chu Qiao looked up at Shang Fangyan and asked with eagerness and longing, "Why?" ”

The sadness and sadness in Chu Qiao's eyes stung Shang Fangyan's eyes in an instant, making his heart hurt.

Raising his lips and smiling, he kissed Chu Qiao's eyebrows, "Because I already have you." ”

Chu Qiao was puzzled, "He Yashi is your own chosen fiancΓ©e, why haven't you married her for so many years, and you don't like her?" ”

"I didn't choose He Yashi because I liked her, but I had to choose one, but she grew up with me, and I knew she was my fiancΓ©e since I was a child, so I always thought that I would officially marry her before I was thirty." As he spoke, Shang Fangyan held Chu Qiao's hand and gradually moved down, guiding her hand to explore, slowly covering his huge scorching heat.

When the hot temperature came from the palm of her hand, Chu Qiao almost subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but she was tightly controlled by Shang Fangyan, and then guided her five fingers to tighten, wrapping the huge hardness in her five fingers.

Chu Qiao buried his head deep in Shang Fangyan's chest, his face flushed so much that he could almost drip blood.

Shang Fangyan smiled with satisfaction, and continued happily and contentedly, "However, three years ago, He Yashi saw Xiao Xu fall into the lake by the lake in Jingyi Garden, but chose to hide behind the stones to watch, and Xiao Xu almost lost his life if he didn't save or call people, and since then, I have made up my mind that no matter what, I will never marry her again in my life. ”

"Xiao Xu also fell into the lake, and almost lost his life?!" Chu Qiao looked up at Shang Fangyan in surprise again, completely forgetting the heat in his palm, his eyes full of shock.

Shang Fangyan nodded, So, Chu Qiao, how scared I was when I knew that you and Xiao Xu didn't breathe because you fell into the lake?

Chu Qiao's eyebrows furrowed, and he was afraid for a while.

If Shi Fangxu hadn't been rescued at that time, what should Shang Fangyan do?

"Xiaoxu is so cute, why did He Yashi choose to do that?"

Shang Fangyan shook his head helplessly, even after going through so many things and sufferings, Chu Qiao was still just like a child.

But it was precisely this Chu Qiao that really moved him and made him choose her in the last time.

"Because Xiao Xu is also surnamed Shang Fang and is the eldest grandson of the Shang family, even if He Yashi marries me, the children she gives birth to in the future will no longer have the surname Shang Fang."

That's right, Chu Qiao then understood, in the Shang family, the surname Shang Fang is the most noble symbol of identity and status, and the surname Shang Fang is equivalent to having everything in the Shang family, if Xiao Xu is gone, then there can be a boy from the Shang family who will be crowned with the surname Shang Fang to inherit everything in the Shang family.

Chu Qiao sighed lightly, it turned out that it was so sad to be born among the people of the world, they had wealth and glory that outsiders could not match, but they also had pain that outsiders could not understand.

"I'm going to learn how to swim, so that next time I fall into the lake again, it won't be okay."

Shang Fangyan smiled happily, his eyebrows shining, "No, such a thing will never happen again in the future." ”

"Shang Fangyan..."

"In the future, you don't need to force yourself to do anything you don't like to do." Shang Fangyan locked Chu Qiao's eyes, his gaze was as warm as water, "You know? ”

β€œ...... Good. ”
