Ye Mian answered the phone, and the man's deep and magnetic voice surrounded the carriage: "Where are you?" I'll pick you up. ”

"What's the matter?" She raised her voice and asked, at this point, the Civil Affairs Bureau is also off work, it shouldn't be looking for her to divorce.

Qiao Zhanbei: "Grandma was discharged from the hospital and asked us to come over for dinner tonight." ”

She lived in Qiao's house at the age of 14, when Qiao's mother was busy with her career and couldn't take care of her, so she often entrusted her to Qiao's grandfather and Qiao's grandmother to take care of her. Although she has no relatives and no reason, her grandparents have always treated her as their own granddaughter.

Grandma had just been discharged from the hospital, so of course she had to visit.

"Okay, I'm close to the compound now, I'll drive over by myself." She doesn't know what kind of mentality to face him now, if she can, she won't be alone, so as to avoid embarrassment.

Qiao Zhanbei: "You wait for me at the gate of the compound and go in together, so as not to make the old man suspicious." ”

Half an hour later, Ye Mian arrived at the gate of the army compound, Grandpa Qiao is a retired old chief, and after his retirement, the old couple has been living here.

After a while, the car horn sounded.

At a glance, she saw the domineering SUV parked at the gate of the compound, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, his personal car.

She took a deep breath, swallowed the faint pain in her throat, walked to the car, opened the door, and got into the passenger seat.

I haven't seen him for a few days, and the moment she meets his handsome face, her heart trembles slightly.

"Let's go."

She struggled to restrain her emotions, gave a polite and detached smile, and after pulling on her seat belt, began to play with her phone, distracting and weakening his strong presence.

Qiao Zhanbei turned his face sideways, his eyes slightly raised, and he looked at her.

faded from the mature and capable professional attire, and wore a traditional style of crescent white cheongsam, which made her more quiet and feminine. She looked at her phone, smiling at the corners of her mouth, looking very happy.

Heartless, lungsless, treat him as air.

A few days ago, he asked An Cheng to ask her to go back to work, but she still refused.

Only then did he realize that she really wanted to resign, not to be angry with him.

"At work, you're going to just pick and leave?" Qiao Zhanbei asked solemnly, or the boss's tone to his subordinates, with reproach.

Ye Mian turned his face to look at him, his eyes were puzzled, she was going to resign that day, didn't he stop her.

"I really want to resign." She said firmly.

Qiao Zhanbei's face was solemn, he didn't say anything, and the carriage fell into silence again.

Soon arrived at the gate of the small courtyard of grandpa's house, got out of the car, she was just about to enter the door, Qiao Zhanbei held her hand and led her into the yard together.

After Ye Mian reacted, he instinctively wanted to break away, the man lowered his eyes and looked at her, and said in a low voice: "Cooperate a little, grandma has watched." ”

She no longer struggles.

Grandma Qiao watched the little couple hold hands and enter the door together, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.

At dinner, Grandpa Qiao brought a bottle of Moutai and asked Qiao Zhanbei to accompany him to drink two taels.

"Grandpa, Brother Qiao has a bad stomach and can't drink." Ye Mian blurted out.

When the words came out, she herself was stunned, in the past three years, her meticulous care for him has become a conditioned reflex.

Grandma Qiao: "That's it, this old man, he doesn't care about his eldest grandson's body, or Mianmian is most concerned about Zhanbei, in the end, he is husband and wife!" ”

Grandpa Qiao patted his head, "Forget and forget." ”

After the meal, the two couples of the next generation sat in the gazebo in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, Grandma Qiao held Ye Mian's hand and sat on the bench, and their grandchildren played chess.

Chatting and chatting, Grandma Qiao's expression gradually became serious: "Zhanbei, I heard that Tong Yaoyao woke up?" I'm going to recite a mantra for you, and you're not annoyed. ”

Qiao Zhanbei hurriedly raised his head, looking deaf: "You say." ”

"Qiao Zhanbei, don't be confused. Three years ago, your father left suddenly, your second uncle was wrongfully investigated, the Qiao family lost power, the company was in turmoil, no one recognized you, the young master who had just graduated and returned to China, and even your girlfriend abandoned you. ”

Listening to his grandmother's words, Qiao Zhanbei's chess hand froze slightly in mid-air, and in an instant, the corners of his mouth pulled into a light smile.

Ye Mian quietly looked at the man sitting in the light, remembering the gloomy time three years ago, her heart tugged.

She could understand his pain.

"Only we, the family, believe that you will lead Qiao's out of the crisis." Grandma Qiao wiped her tears and said again.

"Grandma, these are things in the past, don't be sad." Ye Mian held the old man's wrinkled hand with his backhand, and persuaded distressedly.

Remembering that the old man experienced the pain of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, Ye Mian also had red eyes.

"Mianmian is right, the past is over, grandma." Qiao Zhanbei said.

"Yes, I hope you don't think about the past anymore, you little couple are kind and loving, as the saying goes, husband and wife are of the same heart, and their benefits are broken! The most important thing in a home is harmony! ”

Grandma Qiao raised her spirits, raised her voice, and said, "Qiao Zhanbei, speaking of which, the person you should be most grateful for is Mianmian." Back then, when you first joined Qiao's family, you didn't have a single cronie around you, you couldn't recruit anyone, those people avoided our family like a plague, only sleeping, giving up the opportunity to go to a big company, coming to Qiao's to help you, and being with you through thick and thin! ”

Qiao Zhanbei glanced at Ye Mian from the corner of his eyes, his heart was surging hot, and he laughed at himself in his heart, she was just repaying her kindness.

He still said sincerely: "Grandma, of course I know how to sleep well." ”

The equal division of marital property is the compensation for her. In the past few years, she has been second only to him in all aspects of Qiao's treatment.

Ye Mian smiled bitterly in his heart, understanding that he was coaxing grandma to be happy, for the sake of grandma's health, she also cooperated with acting, "Grandma, Brother Qiao is as good to me as grandpa is to you." ”

Grandpa Qiao, who had not spoken, spoke for his wife at this time, "Qiao Zhanbei, you kid dare to live up to your grandmother and Mianmian, old man, I will be the first to spare you." ”

When the words fell, he picked up the chess pieces and took Qiao Zhanbei's army!

Qiao Zhanbei even said, "Don't dare."

After a while, the sweltering night blew strong winds, and the forecast said that there would be an extreme thunderstorm tonight, and the little couple was left overnight at their grandparents.

Grandma Qiao watched the little couple go upstairs lovingly, and as soon as they reached the second floor, Ye Mian immediately broke away from Qiao Zhanbei's hand and took the lead into the bedroom.

After taking a shower, she took another air-conditioned quilt from the closet.

Qiao Zhanbei came in after smoking, only to see that the big bed was separated by Ye Mian with several long pillows, and it was clearly distinguished.

The man squinted at the little woman who was tightly wrapped in the quilt like a silkworm chrysalis, and the corners of her mouth tugged.

Sensing him coming in, Ye Mian closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, but his heart was beating suddenly, nervous and uneasy, and ...... Expect.

She still had expectations for him, Ye Mian smiled bitterly, his influence on her was so strong, so strong that she was just in the same room, and her heart was firmly pulled by him, let alone sleeping in the same bed.

The vibrating sound of his mobile phone interrupted Ye Mian's thoughts.

"Brother Qiao, on this floor where I am, there is an old man who has just passed away, and I am so afraid of ......"

"Don't be afraid, I'm very close to you, I'll rush over immediately."

Listening to Qiao Zhanbei's words, there was no need to guess, Ye Mian also knew that it was Tong Yaoyao calling, and her throbbing heart suddenly cooled, and she froze there, motionless.

After a while, she blinked her eyelids and a tear rolled down silently from the sound of a car engine downstairs.

She rolled over and looked at the pillow she had placed in the middle of the bed in remorse.

He must have been laughing at her when he first saw these pillows, right? Did she think he was going to touch her? There's a baby waiting for him outside!

She thinks too much!

She took a deep breath and forced herself to stop thinking about him and sleep peacefully, she only slept three or four hours a day in the past few days of work, and she was really tired.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, the wind raged through the closed windows, the ghost cried wolf, and a lightning bolt pierced the sky, and the room was as bright as day.

In a panic, she instinctively drilled into Qiao Zhanbei's arms, but found that the bedside was empty, so she remembered that he went to accompany Tong Yaoyao......
