Chapter 70: You've Always Been a Brother

In the evening, Xie Zhengyu came back late because he had a party, and Qiao Wen ate a little casually and had nothing to do at home.

She had been back for a long time, and she was suddenly a little worried about the B&B.

Just as she was thinking about it, Lingda's call came.

"Hey."

"When are you coming back?" Ling Da got straight to the point, he thought that Qiao Wen had not heard from him for so long, so he should have made a decision.

Qiao Wen hesitated, she glanced at the calendar: "Tomorrow." ”

"So fast?"

"Well, I'll tell you something when I get back. Sister Zining gets married next weekend, and I want to come back to watch the ceremony. ”

"Okay, then I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow."

Qiao Wen hung up the phone and sat alone in front of the window and sighed softly, she suddenly didn't know how to face Lingda, but she still had to face it after all.

"Whew~"

She breathed a sigh of relief, then got up and began to pack.

It didn't take long to go back, Qiao Wen only took two changes of clothes, and the rest was packed with some Jiangcheng specialties, which were originally bought back to take photos, but I didn't expect them to come in handy this time.

"What are you doing?"

Xie Zhengyu didn't know when he would come back, and as soon as he walked into the room, he saw Qiao Wen packing his luggage, he immediately panicked, and pulled Qiao Wen up and asked.

"Where are you going?"

Qiao Wen's hand was pulled by him, and he was a little displeased: "What are you doing?" Let go of me. ”

"Say, where are you going? Why are you packing your bags again while I'm not at home? ”

"You're mistaken." Qiao Wen vigorously shook off Xie Zhengyu's hand: "I'm going back to Xicheng, and I have to pack my luggage first before you come back, not to go secretly." ”

"Why do you want to go back?"

"My career is still there, I can't ignore it."

Qiao Wen said this, Xie Zhengyu gradually calmed down, he glanced at Qiao Wen's luggage, and there were indeed not many clothes: "Then when will you come back?" ”

"Sister Zining must come back before she gets married."

But even if Qiao Wen said this, the gloom on Xie Zhengyu's face did not dissipate much. Qiao Wen pulled Xie Zhengyu's arm and coaxed, "I will definitely come back, and I will definitely do what I promised you." Don't you believe me? ”

"Wen Wen, I believe you, but Ling Da ......"

"Lingda won't, I'm going to give him an explanation when I go back this time. For so many years, although I have not been with him, I am still a good friend, he has helped me so much, I have made a decision to talk to him. In addition, the B&B was founded by the two of us, and he and I also have to sit together to discuss the future direction and current management. You're a businessman, you should know better, don't you? ”

Xie Zhengyu pursed his lips slightly, what Qiao Wen said was the truth, and he had no way to refute it. However, there are still some concerns about letting her leave her side after all.

"I'll find someone to accompany you."

Qiao Wen pretended to be angry and stood up: "Xie Zhengyu, in the end, you just don't trust me. ”

Seeing that Qiao Wen was angry, he immediately denied it: "I believe you." Okay, you go on your own, but you have to talk to me every day, you know? ”

Qiao Wen finally smiled: "Okay, it's okay to call you three times a day to report." ”

"Okay."

When Xie Zhengyu sent Qiao Wen to the airport the next day, he didn't forget to tell her not to forget to report the truth, and Qiao Wen had to kiss his lips to block his mouth. I don't know when Xie Zhengyu became more and more nagging, but he liked this kind of nagging very much.

"Alright, you can go back."

"Okay."

Xie Zhengyu watched Qiao Wen enter the security check, and left until he couldn't see her.

On the other side, Lingda was already waiting at the airport, and did not go in directly, but sat in the parking lot of the airport for a long time.

He probably guessed what Qiao Wen would say to him when he came back this time, and he could probably think that she might have reunited with Xie Zhengyu.

Qiao Wen is like this, when he meets Xie Zhengyu, he will collapse.

It's like facing her yourself, helpless.

Yesterday, my friend was still talking about himself, and he didn't catch up with Qiao Wen for three years, and he didn't speak at that time, just smiled bitterly. They didn't know how good the person they wanted to replace was, and how much weight that person had in Qiao Wen's heart.

They didn't even know that there had never been a problem with the relationship between Qiao Wen and that person, and some were just forced to do so.

How could he get into such feelings?

Thinking of this, Ling Da laughed to himself.

That's when Jowen called him.

Only then did he react, it turned out that he had been here for too long and missed the pick-up time, and Qiao Wen had already walked out.

He knew to start the car and rush to the airport gate.

Sure enough, he saw Qiao Wen standing there from afar, looking around. It was only after seeing himself that he smiled.

Qiao Wen opened the car door and got into the car: "I didn't expect Xicheng to be so cold." ”

Ling Da looked at her, and he could see her change at a glance.

It's just that she has only been back for a few days, and her personality has become much more cheerful, and she thinks that Xie Zhengyu must be better for her than before.

"Give."

Lingda took out a coat from the back seat and threw it into Qiao Wen's hand: "I knew you would definitely wear very little." ”

Qiao Wen put his coat over himself and smiled, "Thank you." ”

Ling Da smiled and didn't speak, stepped on the gas pedal and went straight to the homestay.

When I arrived at the B&B, Qiao Wen noticed some small changes as soon as he entered the door: "Here? ”

"Well, a little change."

Lingda has opened up the original check-in front desk with the public area, which looks more stretched and spacious.

"Not bad." Jowen commented.

"Yo, Wen Wen is back."

Lingda's friend walked in from the outside and was full of surprise when he saw Qiao Wen.

"yes, I'm back."

Qiao Wen took his suitcase, and then took out the specialties he brought one by one: "I brought you special products, don't be restrained." She looked back at the staff at the front desk: "You can come too." ”

Several people happily gathered together to share gifts.

Only Lingda, standing there like an outsider, watched them be boisterous.

Qiao Wen got up and saw that Ling Da had been looking at him and stopped talking.

"I'll change my clothes, you go and wait for me on the terrace."

"Okay."

Jowen returned to his room with his clothes, the room was spotless, everything was laid out in an orderly manner, even the flowers on the table were fresh.

She knew that it must have been Lingda who asked people to come and clean it every day.

Sitting on her big bed, she picked up her mobile phone and reported Xie Zhengyu's safety.

Then he quickly changed his clothes and walked out of the room.

On the terrace, Ling Da sat there looking into the distance, but there were small pastries and tea on the table.

Qiao Wen sat down, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth: "It's still Boss Ling's caring, I'm indeed a little hungry." ”

Ling Da smiled: "This is the rose tea that just arrived yesterday, you try it." ”

Qiao Wen took a sip, and the fragrance of flowers was overflowing, which was indeed very much in line with his taste.

"Boss Ling has a heart."

This time Lingda didn't speak.

Qiao Wen looked at Ling Da and suddenly felt that he had matured a lot.

For so many years, he has been by her side, but she never seems to have seen him well, and only now has she seen the changes in him.

"Lingda, there's something I want to tell you."

"You're reconciled."

Qiao Wen's words were answered by him.

"You know everything?"

Ling Da turned his head to look at her: "You have been gone for so long, and you were captured by Xie Zhengyu from Xuzhou back to Jiangcheng." Wenwen, I'm not stupid, how could I not know it so obviously? ”

Qiao Wen lowered his head and smiled, yes, what a smart person Ling Da is, how could he not guess this little thing?

"Yes, I'm back together with him."

"His family agreed?"

Qiao Wen shook his head: "Grandpa disagrees." ”

"Then why?"

"Actually, I don't know why, maybe I'm not reconciled, maybe I've seen how painful Xie Zhengyu has been in the past three years, maybe I want to give him an explanation."

Ling Da snorted, then asked, "What about me?" ”

Qiao Wen looked at him, only to see that Ling Da's eyes were full of loneliness.

"Qiao Wen, I have been by your side for so many years, have you ever been tempted?"

Qiao Wen thought about it for a long time, and she had asked herself this question, but the answer was no.

"I'm sorry."

A word of sorry made Ling Da's heart sink completely to the bottom of the sea.

"Lingda, you're good. I also tried to forget Xie Zhengyu and accept you, but I couldn't. You've been by my side for the past few years, helping me a lot, and I know I owe you a debt, but I don't want to make up for it with feelings, you know? ”

Lingda looked into the distance again and was silent.

"When I first came to Xicheng, you guarded me every day. Later, he encouraged me to live again, accompanied me to class, accompanied me to relax, and even accompanied me to start a business after graduation. At that time, I thought that if I had never met Xie Zhengyu, then I would definitely like you. ”

Hearing this, Ling Da frowned slightly.

"But Lingda, without Xie Zhengyu, I will never know you. I thought of you as a brother when we first met, and I have been doing so for so many years. ”

"Huh, brother?"

Ling Da has never regretted it so much as she did at this moment, and called Qiao Wen "sister" when they first met.

This "sister" completely cut off all possibilities between them.

The culprit turned out to be himself.

"Lingda, I thought about it for a long time before I came back, and I didn't even know how to face you. But after seeing you, I am more calm, I think you understand me, even if I don't say some things, we can tacitly understand. ”

Lingda was silent for a long time, then stood up.

"Jowen, I never wanted to force you to give me any answers. But I still want to hear it. I understand what you think, and I know what to do. ”

Qiao Wen looked at him, but couldn't guess.

"Don't worry, I've always been open."

"I'm sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry for, it's about your affection. I am willing to accompany you for so many years, and I can't complain about anyone. ”

Qiao Wen also stood up: "You will find someone better, she will cherish you very much." ”

Ling Da smiled and didn't continue the topic: "What about the homestay?" ”

"Keep doing it, of course." Qiao Wen blurted out without even thinking about it: "Do you want to quit?" ”

"I didn't think about it, I thought you were going back to Jiangcheng to settle down." Lingda immediately reverted to his cynical appearance.

"Career is not something that can be put away. We're going to keep going, and we're going to do it well. ”

Ling Da put his hands in his pockets and asked with a smile, "Then what do you want to do?" ”

"Now that our homestay is so popular, why don't we open a branch?"

"Branch?"

"That's right, drive to Jiangcheng!"

Ling Da carefully observed Qiao Wen's expression and saw that she didn't look like a joke: "Are you serious? ”

"yes, didn't we say we wanted to be bigger and stronger? Now is the time! ”

"Okay, listen to you!"
