"If saying something like that makes you know yourself more clearly, I don't think it's okay to talk about it."

Qiao Jingyan's face was indescribably depressed.

For this cousin, she has never dared to refute, the Qiao family reached the third generation, and only gave birth to a boy like Qiao Jinyu, and then no matter how hard her father and third uncle tried, they never gave birth to a son, even if it was an illegitimate outside, it was also a bunch of illegitimate daughters.

In addition, Qiao Jinyu's ability is really outstanding, and his grandfather directly passed the uncle and handed over the position of president to Qiao Jinyu.

These cousins, in Qiao Jinyu's eyes, are just sisters who may marry in the future, and they don't have many special feelings.

Qiao Jingyan pursed her lips bitterly: "That brother, I'll go to the hospital tomorrow to see you." ”

"Yes." Qiao Jinyu replied casually, not caring at all whether this cousin came to see him or not.

Hung up the phone, Qiao Jing looked at the mobile phone in her hand unspeakably, her heart was anxious, she insisted on being with Huo Yunzheng at the beginning, at that time Huo Yunzheng had just fallen out of love, and after she was drunk and told her that she wanted to marry her, she felt that she was definitely going to marry Huo Yunzheng in her life, so she went crazy and had to be with Huo Yunzheng at home.

The family was so troubled that they had no choice but to call Huo Yunzheng over and ask about the engagement.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yunzheng did not let go of his engagement, but turned to the Qiao family to start talking about cooperation.

Until the end, Huo Yunzheng did not have a formal engagement ceremony with her, but he did not object to her following him.

Even if Huo Yunzheng's attitude was very indifferent later, she also felt that since he said that he wanted to get married, he must be married.

But as long as she thought of that night, Huo Yunzheng said that the marriage proposal was just a mistake, he took her for Lin Man, and only said that he wanted to marry her after getting drunk, she was very unwilling.

I still remember that night, when it was dark very early, she knew that Huo Yunzheng was coming over, so she happily made steak and made a candlelight dinner.

Less than eight o'clock, Huo Yunzheng walked in with a full body of starlight and the cold wind of the night.

Perfect like a god.

She was so nervous that she walked over and tried to reach out but he took off his suit, but he raised his hand to block it: "No need." ”

When she heard his indifferent refusal, her heart suddenly cooled.

Seeing her candlelight dinner, Huo Yunzheng's face did not change, but he raised his hand and turned on the lights in the restaurant.

She smiled reluctantly, and her voice trembled: "Yun Zheng, what are you doing here?" ”

"There's something I want to make clear to you today." Huo Yunzheng's voice was faint, and his tone seemed a little careless.

She walked to the table, sat down, held the knife in her fingers, and nervously cut the steak: "Sit down and talk while eating, you won't even want to have a meal with me now." ”

Huo Yunzheng looked at her fixedly for a while before obediently picking up the dinner knife and starting to cut it.

"Jingyan, are you going to find Mrs. Lin?" Huo Yunzheng asked lightly while cutting the steak.

She felt sad in her heart, sniffed, and took a sip of red wine: "Did she sue you?" I didn't expect that Mr. Lin was just a villain who said bad things about people behind his back. ”

"Don't you know that the hospital is my property?"

The man's cool voice sounded leisurely, and her whole body began to chill unconsciously, because she heard Huo Yunzheng say that the hospital was his property, not the Huo family's property.

She smiled desolately, her fingers clenched tighter and tighter, and her knuckles were white: "I see...... Have you already taken everything under her wing so early? Huo Yunzheng, do you have a heart, since you don't like me, why did you give me hope in the first place. ”

"At that time, I was drunk and thought you were Lin Man, so I said to marry you, but even so, I didn't have a relationship with you, did I? Jingyan, don't be obsessed, I have no feelings for you, and my body doesn't have any reaction to you. If my previous actions have caused you any illusion, then I am here to apologize to you, sorry, all these years, I have been saying that we are not suitable, it is your father who has been asking me not to embarrass you. ”

She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.

"So, you mean to say that the reason why you indulged me to stay by your side is because of my father's request, not because you have even the slightest affection for me?" ”

Huo Yunzheng nodded, his expression was indifferent, and he said lightly and indifferently; "Yes."

"I don't believe it." Her eyes turned red.

She absolutely didn't believe that the truth of the matter turned out to be like this.

She thought that one day she would completely melt his heart of ice, but now he told her that it was all her whim, and that if it weren't for her father, she wouldn't even have a chance to stay by his side.

"If you don't believe it, there's no way, because I say it's the truth." Huo Yunzheng's face stiffened slightly, and he shook his head: "What did you put in the dish?" ”

She looked at him suspiciously: "Just ordinary spices, what can I put in?" As she spoke, she suddenly found that Tang Jinyu's face was not quite right, and suddenly, her head was also dizzy: "My head is so dizzy." ”

Huo Yunzheng stared at her fiercely, as if she was sure that she had been drugged, she was dizzy and uncomfortable, and wanted to explain, but found that she had no strength to speak.

Before she fell into darkness, she looked at Huo Yunzheng's eyes closed with anger.

At that moment, she knew that in this life, I was afraid that there would be no more possibilities between them.

Closing her eyes suddenly, Qiao Jingyan knew that she couldn't think about it anymore, otherwise the unwillingness in her heart would definitely be like a beast that would devour her completely.

Thinking of this, she reached for her phone again and dialed a call.

Soon the assistant's voice came from there: "Mr. Qiao." ”

"Last time I told you about it, how did you check?"

The assistant said with some hesitation: "After finding out about Mr., I lost the clue." ”

Qiao Jingyan was stunned in her heart, Dad?

Could it be Daddy's doing?

Thinking of her father's request for Huo Yunzheng, she felt that everything was possible, after all, her father had been very supportive of her and Huo Yunzheng since before.

It's better to say that her father values Huo Yunzheng's personal ability more.

She sat down dejectedly, leaning on the wide chair, she looked at the ceiling blankly, and could only hope that Huo Yunzheng didn't find out that it was her father's hand, otherwise, I am afraid that the status of their second room in the Qiao family will be shocked.

People say that overseas Chinese who have received a democratic education abroad must be very open, fair, and just.

Actually, it's all wrong.

Compared with the current domestic modernization, it is the overseas Chinese who are more traditional.

They pursue male inheritance, family unity, and the supremacy of the ancestral hall.

There is a more classical and old-fashioned existence than any modern family, Qiao Jingyan grew up in such a family, and the concept that she was instilled since childhood is that her marriage is the only bargaining chip to contribute everything to the Qiao family.

It's just that she herself is unwilling.

…………

Early the next morning.

Lin Man asked Wang's mother to stew bone broth, as well as pig's trotter soybean soup, and he went to the company to deal with the matter first.

Then he went to Jiang Chenyi's side to meet Lin Yusheng.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yusheng did not scold this time, but met her very calmly, and did not even ask her to take him out, but just looked at her with a smile that seemed to be not a smile, with pity and happiness in his eyes.

Lin Man didn't know why his attitude had suddenly changed so much.

Jiang Chenyi only said that after he made a phone call with Mrs. Lin, he had been very calm, and as for the content of their conversation, he didn't know very well.

Lin Man was restless and took the soup and drove directly to the hospital.

Standing in front of the door of Ward 9, he took a deep breath and reached out and knocked on the door.

Soon, there was a sound of rustling inside, the door was suddenly opened, and a dignifiedly dressed middle-aged woman held the door and looked at her suspiciously: "Miss, who are you looking for?" ”

Lin Man was stunned, and suddenly realized that this might be the person who took care of Qiao Jingshan, and hurriedly smiled and nodded at her: "Hello, I'm looking for Miss Qiao Jingshan." ”

"Mother Lin, who is it?" A crisp sound came from within.

The middle-aged woman turned her head away, and her voice was puzzled: "Third Miss, a young lady said that she came to you." ”

After a while, Qiao Jingshan, who was wearing a blue and white hospital gown, appeared in front of Lin Man, looking only sixteen or seventeen years old, with round eyes full of curiosity on her chubby face: "Who are you?" What's the matter with me? ”

Lin Man didn't expect Qiao Jingshan to be so fat.

was slightly stunned at first, and then hurriedly smiled at her, bowing slightly: "Miss Qiao, my surname is Lin, Mr. Qiao was a little injured yesterday because he saved me, and asked me to come and visit you." ”

Qiao Jingshan was stunned for a moment, then remembered something, and suddenly looked at her excitedly, and her voice was an octave higher: "I know you, you are Lin Man, aren't you?" ”

Lin Man nodded awkwardly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became far-fetched.

It seems that her popularity in Qiao's family is quite high.

Qiao Jingshan didn't seem to notice her unnaturalness, she pulled her in very excitedly, and kept talking: "I have long wanted to see you, you don't know how much I admire you, Qiao Jingyan That woman is going to die now, she deserves it, let her eyes grow on the top of her head all day long, and she looks down on people, I tell you, Brother Huo doesn't like her at all, she said that she wants to get engaged, Brother Huo doesn't want to get engaged if he doesn't cooperate with his brother, and I don't know what to do all day long, The man she likes doesn't even want to look at her, if it weren't for my second uncle's dead face, do you think Brother Huo is willing to entangle with her? ”

Qiao Jingshan's voice is like a yellow warbler out of the valley, crisp and beautiful.

It's just that it is not difficult to see from her words that she is quite unkind to see Qiao Jingyan, so that in front of her, who is her sister's rival, she also belittles her sister for nothing.

"Once I overheard Brother Huo talking to my brother, and they mentioned you at that time, and I was very curious about you at that time."

Qiao Jingshan's accent was a little strange, probably because she grew up abroad, but unexpectedly, she didn't hear such an accent on Qiao Jingyan and Qiao Jinyu.

Lin Man was a little surprised, Huo Yunzheng actually mentioned her to Qiao Jin Yu.

She put the soup in her hand on the table, her eyelids drooping slightly: "What are you curious about me?" Curious about what kind of heartless woman I was in the first place? ”

Qiao Jingshan looked at her with some embarrassment.

At that time, it was true that for Huo Yunzheng, she was a ruthless woman, but she could tell that Brother Huo still loved her deeply.

Without deep love, there is no such hatred.

She could see that what supported Brother Huo at that time was not so much hatred, but the thought of coming back to see her all the time.
