"Hey." Qiao mingteng sighed: "I was also busy at that time. My neighbor told me that Joan lived in a small hotel nearby. At that time, I thought the child would go astray again. I didn't know the truth until I rushed there."

Huo Chengzhou couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. He thought that his disheartened state after the car accident was similar to that of Joan at that time.

Just: "so you helped her pay her last tuition?"

Qiao mingteng's face added a touch of helplessness: "I have no financial right at home. I want to secretly run a training class to earn some training fees. As a result, the child said she was going to participate in a piano competition, and the bonus can pay the tuition for the first year."

"Piano competition?" Huo Chengzhou began to search for matters related to the piano competition four years ago.

"Yes." Qiao mingteng finally added a smile on his face: "don't say, she really succeeded. She won the championship and met Mr. Ling."

Hearing him talk about Mr. Ling, Huo Chengzhou thought of Ling Yi for the first time.

"Mr. Ling is also Joan's noble man. After knowing her situation, he asked her to work in Ling's piano shop and arranged a dormitory for her."

Qiao mingteng lowered his eyes and cut vegetables: "it's also my fault. I'm an uncle. No stranger can help her more."

Qiao Minghui did pick up Joan for the first time to live at home, but there was another worry at home. He looked at Joan's face every day and every day, and his work was too busy and flawless. He had too many scruples

Now think about it, I still feel owed.

"You have helped her a lot." Huo Chengzhou doesn't understand that Joan is the adopted daughter of the Qiao family and has no blood relationship with Qiao mingteng. He has done his best to miss her.

Qiao mingteng's eyes were hot: "Hey, I'm sorry to talk about things at that time. Fortunately, Joan is so lucky that she can always meet dignitaries."

He hurriedly cleaned up his mood and continued to cook, which is one of the few things he can do for Joan now.

Huo Chengzhou's mind drifts away. No wonder Qiao an has such a good attitude towards Ling Yi. It turns out that there is such a source in it.

It's just

"Has Joan ever talked about Ling Yi?" Huo Chengzhou asked.

"Ling Yi?" Qiao mingteng thought for a while and shook his head. "Haven't you heard of this name? What's the matter?"

Huo Chengzhou's heart suddenly jumped with a smile. He was inexplicably happy. He smiled: "it's all right. It's also Ling's family. I heard Joan mention it."

"Oh, that's right." Qiao mingteng didn't think much: "maybe he was the one who helped her."

Huo Chengzhou nodded: "yes."

I'm in a good mood.

……

They chatted and cooked. A lunch took more than an hour.

The dishes were all ready, and the three sat down at the table. Huo Chengzhou skillfully put a large plate beside Joan's hand and prepared to serve her dishes later.

"Joan, do you have any wine at home?" Qiao mingteng was in a good mood: "I'll have two drinks with Xiao Huo."

After this morning's contact, Qiao mingteng has accepted Huo Chengzhou and changed his name directly.

"There is wine." Qiao an said, "but ah Cheng can't drink. He's allergic to alcohol, otherwise I'll drink with you."

"Yes." Qiao mingteng looked happy: "you haven't drunk with me for a long time. Qiao Yinchen is not here today. You can drink with me."

Huo Chengzhou wants to stop her. Joan has gone to the kitchen, opened the locker and found a bottle of red wine.

Huo Chengzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was red wine.
