It was already 10: 30 in the gray sky. Shu rubbed her eyes, gently pushing Ling Qiao who was beside her, sleepily reminding her, "Hubby, get up and go to the airport, don't be late."
"The plane is two hours late."
"I know. It's already ten-thirty. Get up."
Ling Qiao opened his eyes and looked out the window, "I'm afraid we'll be two hours late in this fog."
"You jinx, the fact that you didn't call means that you're not late."
"Alright, alright." Ling Qiao could not bear to part with this warm blanket. Right now, he also loved to stay in bed. In such a cold day, he should be hugging his wife in bed and not want to go anywhere.
"Still sleeping? "You're even lazier than me!"
Under Shu Shu's constant urging, he reluctantly got out of bed and dubiously ate her tofu in the name of finding his underwear. Finally, he smiled and said, "Wife, I can't find my underwear. If you find it, then help me wash it."
He was deliberately causing trouble, causing the bed to be heated up and run away.
"I know, why aren't you rushing over?!" You want Grandma to wait at the airport? "
She was really impressed with her husband. This lazy villain seemed to be stationed on his body, while that diligent villain had long raised the white flag, not knowing where he went.
The fog gradually dispersed, and the sun emerged from the thick clouds. The airport flight could finally land without a hitch.
"We're finally back. T City is so cold. It will still be a month or so before it gets warm." Hu Xin pulled at his down jacket, but he still felt cold, "Mom, are you cold? Do you want to add another piece of clothing? "
"No, it's warm enough."
"Dad, I want to go to the washroom. You guys go out and pick up the checked luggage first, see you at the exit later."
"Qingqing, do you want Mom to accompany you?"
"No need, I can handle it myself. You guys can go first."
She took out her cell phone and dialed a number. "Cousin, I've arrived at City T. I want to make it clear to Ling Qiao that I can't wait any longer. I can't bear the fact that he's with someone else. I'll die from the pain."
"Qingqing, don't be impulsive. Ling Qiao still has many things to do, you can't mess with his plans at this time! "How about this, I'll go to your house tonight. We'll talk about it when the time comes."
"He's just waiting outside to pick up the call. I can't hold it in any longer. My heart is about to break. Cousin, do you understand the feeling of wanting to die?"
"Since you called me, it means that you're still willing to listen to me. Then, listen to me again. Don't be impulsive."
Tang Thirty-Six bit his lip and sighed. "Alright …"
At the reception, Ling Qiao had already arrived. He was wearing sunglasses and a mask. He was dressed casually and no one recognized him. He looked around in alarm, but did not see any trace of the reporter.
If there were to be any more rumors this time, I really doubt if there is a spy!
"CEO, the madame and the others have come out." Deng Zijun pointed ahead.
Ling Qiao raised his hand and waved towards them. "Grandma, I'm here."
Deng Zijun respectfully greeted his seniors, then carefully asked: "How come Miss Tang is missing? Where is she?"
Granny Ling pointed. "Here it is."
Deng Zijun went forward to push the wheelchair, "Miss Tang, let me help you."
"Thank you, Zijun." She really missed him. It had only been seven days since they met, yet she couldn't take it anymore. It was as if she was living the same life every day.
Ling Qiao recalled the scene when she called last night, and could not help feeling a little embarrassed. "You're back, is your foot okay?"
"No problem, thank you for your concern."
"Since everyone is here, let's return home."
"Yes." Tang Thirty-Six did his best to suppress the torments in his heart. If he continued to endure, his cousin would definitely help me.
When the photo of Ling Qiao carrying Tang Aoqing in the car once again spread online, Ling Qiao couldn't help but start to suspect the people around his. Grandmother and father definitely wouldn't do such a thing. As for mother Hu Xin, it was very likely that she would often bring up the topic of "Only Xia Qingqing is worthy to be the Ling Family's first wife".
Closing his phone, Ling Qiao walked towards the kitchen, "Aunt Li, can you please go out for a while? I have something to say to my mother."
"Alright, young master …"
Hu Xin looked at him in surprise, "What's the matter, son?"
"Mom, can you stop meddling in my family affairs?!"
Hu Xin was stunned, "What do you mean by housework? Is your home not my home? "
"Mom, do you think you can break me apart from ShuShu by putting in a few photos and writing some random news? "No way!"
"Silly son, what nonsense are you spouting? Your mom knows how to do this kind of thing?" She had long since heard about the rumours that Ling Qiao and Tang Siqing had spread on New Year's Eve. "Who told you that I did it? My photography skills aren't that good, and I'm already so close to you guys. How am I supposed to take pictures?"
"Don't quibble, you can always find someone else to take photos."
"Son, mom doesn't like Shu Shu. I want to be my daughter-in-law again, but I won't take my son's reputation as a joke. If you get married and commit adultery, that sort of thing doesn't sound good, I definitely won't do it."
Ling Qiao saw that Hu Xin wasn't joking around, and couldn't help but feel ashamed, "Mom, it really wasn't you?"
"No!" She didn't listen to her mother, but when she questioned her mother like this, she couldn't help but feel that her son didn't trust her at all.
"What happened today has spread again. The internet is filled with photos of me hugging Xia Qing, but I'm very clear that I wasn't followed by the reporters. That's why I'm suspicious."
"Then why are you suspecting me? Ling Qiao, you really make me sad. " Hu Xin said angrily, "Get out, Sister Li. Quickly come in and help. Don't get in the way and get out."
Ling Qiao was pushed out of the kitchen by Hu Xin. Sister-in-law Li had an embarrassed look on his face as he continued to do his job. If it wasn't his mother, then this was strange. Was he really being followed by a reporter?
News had already spread on the internet that his old relationship with Tang Xiuqing had returned to a new level. Shu Tiiron would definitely see that she was always hostile towards Tang Xiuqing. If she saw this, she would definitely break the camaraderie once more.
Ling Qiao looked at his phone, but did not see any text or phone calls from Shu Shu. This girl was definitely sulking and was about to call, but Granny Ling stopped his.
"Ling Qiao, how are you preparing for tomorrow's gathering?"
"Grandma, come over here and sit." Ling Qiao hurriedly stepped forward to support the old man, "It's all ready, just wait for everyone to greet you. This year, there will be a few more brats, but don't worry grandma, I've already prepared the red packets for you. You just need to send them out, no need to trouble yourself."
"Fine, give me the sum when you're done. I'll transfer the money to you."
"Grandmother, there is no need to be so clear on this …"
"Of course I do. Oh right, when will we get another kid?"
Ling Qiao was speechless. It wasn't as if he were giving birth to dumplings, it wasn't like he just had them, "Grandmother, don't worry. I'll bring them to you next year's gathering, is that alright?"
"Alright, it's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
Grandma Ling's side was easy to deal with, as long as it was only her great-grandson, he was also working hard, but he could not just ignore his mother's side. After all, they were family, could it be that they would spend the new year on both sides?
When it was time to eat, Hu Xin's anger had not yet subsided. Ling Qiao shamelessly picked up a chicken leg and gave it to her, "Mom, eat more."
Ling Zhi Wei smiled and said, "Look at how filial your son is, he has such a big chicken leg for you to eat."
"I'm getting old, my teeth aren't good, and I can't bite anymore."
"Mom, it's my fault. I shouldn't have made such a reckless judgement. Don't be angry."
Ling Wang, Ling Zhiwei, and Hu Xin all looked at Ling Qiao. They were so surprised that they couldn't believe what they had heard. Was this Ling Qiao himself? Would Ling Qiao apologize? Apologize in front of so many people? It had changed, this arrogant young master of the Ling family had completely changed. They were no longer used to it.
"Why are you all looking at me? Do I have rice grains on my face? Mom, this chicken is so cooked that even Grandma can bite it, so you definitely won't have a problem. "
Hu Xin felt flattered. In the past thirty years, Ling Qiao had been mischievous since he was young, and had never heard of her, so he could do whatever he wanted. As a mother, he couldn't say a single word.
"I can bite, I can bite …" Only the mother could understand Hu Xin's current mood. The dishes her son picked up were even more delicious than dragon meat.
After dinner, Ling Qiao drove the car out of his house. He should also return to Chun Mu Courtyard. He drove the car out and coincidentally saw Chen Jiaxian's car drive into the Tang family's main entrance. It was too late for dinner.
He took out his cell phone and called him. Just as he was about to ask him about the cover of LA magazine, he said, "Jia Qian, are you free? Come out and have a chat?"
"Oh, Ling Qiao, I'm still at the television station. I just got back from advertising in the South. The South Station is very smooth. I need to organize some data."
Ling Qiao wrinkled his brows. That car was Chen Jiaxian's. Why did he say he was at the television station? It was obvious that he had something to hide. Ling Qiao calmly replied, "Alright, let's chat next time then."
Perhaps there was something wrong with her feet that caused her to come to the Tang Clan so late at night, but she did not want to trouble him anymore, so she could only seek help from him. This was good as well. Although Ling Qiao's thoughts were somewhat logical, it was still reasonable.
On the way back, he passed by a jewelry store. At the end of last year, he came here to order a necklace, but he hadn't been able to come here to pick it up.
"Can I get the jewelry I ordered?"
"President Ling, why have you come …" The shop manager warmly greeted, "We just arrived this afternoon. We originally wanted to send it to Ling Bai Group tomorrow, but who would've thought that you would come instead."
"It's a good thing that I passed by. I'm not at the company tomorrow."
"Is that so? What a coincidence." The manager signaled the assistant to bring the jewelry over, "President Ling, this necklace was custom-made according to your wishes, do you think it's satisfactory?"
The moment the square box was opened, Ling Qiao's eyes lit up. With a smile, he said, "Not bad, this is what you want."
Under the light, the oval-shaped sapphire glistened brightly, and a ring of diamonds was embedded around it, making it look even more eye-catching.
In order to get the necklace, the shop manager personally went to Sri Lanka to purchase the sapphire. He specially sent four bodyguards to transport the sapphire to France, and when the necklace was finished, he escorted it back home.
