Sea City was still surrounded by the chill of spring after New Year's Eve. A deep night shrouded the entire city in a huge cage.
It was still warm and cold, and the sky was filled with a few tiny snowflakes.
Qiao Mo walked on the sidewalk alone, cell phone in hand, checking from time to time.
It was as if he was afraid he would miss someone's call.
Realizing this, his lips curled up into a bitter smile.
Heh, what a fool, Xiao Yan had already said clearly, he had never loved anyone, even if there was someone he liked, it would be Song Xiazhi, she … What is it?
Just a woman with his children.
Unknowingly, a year had passed since their marriage.
Qiao Mo lowered her head and looked at her stomach which was bulging slightly. Her thick eyelashes were covered with a thin layer of mist.
It was unknown whether it was the deep night or the fog in his eyes.
Perhaps he had walked for too long, but his head was a little dizzy. He held onto the railing to rest for a while. Occasionally, a passerby would pass by to greet him with concern.
"Lady, are you alright? Are you pregnant? Why are you out so late? "
Qiao Mo shook her head, "I'm fine, I just need to rest for a bit."
The passerby was worried, "How many phone calls does your family have? It's very dangerous for you. Should I call your husband to come pick you up? "
It was unknown which phrase had stimulated his nerves, but Qiao Mo was a little agitated, "No need, it's true."
Qiao Mo rejected decisively, and as the bystanders saw this, they could only leave.
As he walked away, he muttered under his breath, "My husband isn't worried even at this late hour …"
The wetness on her eyelashes had become liquid and slowly slid down her face.
However, he forced a smile on his face.
Qiao Mo sat on the resting chair on the sidewalk for a long time.
In the hospital ward.
The man in the hospital bed frowned and said, "Why hasn't Madame come home yet?"
According to the location of the phone, Qiao Mo was on the sidewalk in the Street Park.
Zhao Qian pursed his lips and took a deep breath, then bravely said, "Madam …. Maybe he's jealous. "
"She is a person who is pregnant. Don't you know how to take care of yourself?"
Xiao Yan's face was cold, he retorted gloomily, his eyebrows raised, but he realized that something was amiss, "What did you say? Jealous? "
Zhao Qian was also stunned for a moment, and when he saw Xiao Yan's expression, he felt that it wasn't too bad.
"Well, I guess she was jealous."
"Why are you jealous?" Xiao Yan asked seriously.
Zhao Qian's scalp went numb, as he felt this question was extremely difficult to deal with. "Because …. Mistress has always felt that the reason why you like Madam Boss is because of Miss Song Xiazhi, and why you treat Madam with kindness was only because of the child in Madam's womb. "
Xiao Yan was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly lifted the blanket and got off the bed.
Zhao Qian shuddered. "Boss, where are you going?"
His severe injury had not yet healed, so it was very dangerous for him to go out.
Xiao Yan took a set of clothes, without saying a word, he walked into the bathroom, and closed the door.
When he came out again, he had already changed into a suit and his long legs were spread out. His voice was steady as he said, "Come, let's go find Madam."
She was nearly five months old, yet she dared to be alone outside at night?
… ….
The black Maybach slowly pulled up to the curb.
Looking through the window, Qiao Mo was sitting on a leisure chair, thinking about something absentmindedly.
Zhao Qian looked at Xiao Yan from the rearview mirror. Under his uncertain eyes, Xiao Yan neatly opened the car door of Maybach and stepped down gracefully with his long legs.
Qiao Mo's face was downcast, but when she looked down, she suddenly saw a pair of shiny black men's shoes.
As for the cold and neat black trousers, they weren't even worth a single point on the surface of the shoes.
Qiao Mo's heart skipped a beat, she looked up and saw a man wearing a long, black overcoat and jade like figure standing in the cold night wind.
In the depths of her watery eyes, too much disbelief and astonishment flashed past.
As for the handsome man who reacted first, he looked at her disdainfully and questioned coldly: "Is Mrs. Xiao planning to run away from home again?"
His tone carried a hint of ridicule and ridicule.
Qiao Mo bit her lips and sat on the bench. She did not get up, but tilted her gaze and did not look at him, only at the ground at her side.
"Oh? Sit here and watch the scenery? " Xiao Yan's hands were in his pockets, his temperament was cold and clean. He looked at the people and the traffic by the side of the road and sneered: "Does Mrs. Xiao want to see the cars or the people?"
Qiao Mo was so angry that her words stuck in her throat.
The two of them were in a deadlock.
Xiao Yan took out a clean and slender hand from his coat pocket and said, "Go back."
Qiao Mo pursed her lips, did not reach out to grab his big hand, and only got up, "I will go back myself."
She walked towards the bus stop, and Xiao Yan grabbed her by the arm from behind, firmly pulling her into his embrace and holding her tightly.
"What's with this temper?"
The low, clear, male's voice made Qiao Mo feel for an instant that they were really a pair of passionate lovers. She was angry, and he was coaxing her.
Qiao Mo took a whiff of her frozen nose, and said with a light voice: "Go back to the hospital, if it's because you're afraid that I might accidentally hurt your child outside."
Soft hands, trying to brush away the hand he held at her waist.
Xiao Yan was slightly angered, his black eyes turned cold as he closely examined her white face, "Mrs. Xiao, if the reporters were to catch a picture of you like tonight, the media would definitely catch you and think that you are running away from home."
Qiao Mo turned her eyes, and stared straight at him, "That's right, my value is to help you create a better public appearance!"
Xiao Yan lowered his gaze, staring at the small face in his embrace that even seemed to be alive, as his thin lips tightly pursed.
What she meant was, she wanted to continue living in this damned place?!
"Come back with me."
The man took her hand and walked over to Maybach.
Qiao Mo's anger all came out.
He swung his small hands with all his might, and said with a hint of ruthlessness, "It's not like you don't like people seeing us together, right? It's not that you don't like others to know that we're husband and wife? "Then let's go our separate ways!"
Xiao Yan frowned, he was staring intently at her, his eyes were so red.
For no reason, his heart skipped a beat.
Qiao Mo gritted her teeth, turned and resolutely left.
Xiao Yan's long legs stepped onto the car and hugged her, quickly pushing her into the car and scolded: "Zhao Qian, send Madam home!"
Zhao Qian was surprised, but he didn't see any intention of getting on the car. "Boss, what about you?"
Xiao Yan was furious, he stared at Qiao Mo, and spoke each word: "I will call a taxi!"
… ….
Maibach drove forward, while Xiao Yan followed him and walked in the cold night with long strides.
Qiao Mo sat in the back seat of the Mai Bach alone. From the rearview mirror, she saw the lonely and upright black figure of her back, growing further and further away.
It was as if their lives had intersected before, but very soon, they would part ways.
Zhao Qian almost couldn't believe his own eyes. The Big Boss that never took a taxi actually gave its car to someone else and took a taxi, but …. Did the Boss have any money for a taxi?
Zhao Qian looked at Qiao Mo who was deep in thought, and could not help but speak up for Xiao Yan, "Madam, the BOSS found out that Madam was not home, and it was very worried for you. It had not even recovered from its severe injuries, so it got out of its bed and ran out the hospital to find you. "Actually, I'm just worried about your comfort."
"He was just worried that I would be smacked by the puppies and embarrass him. What he was worried about was only my stomach, his child."
Could it be that he was lying?
Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing in an untimely manner.
Qiao Mo frowned, puzzled.
"Madam, you're in the wrong. I've been by the Boss' side for so many years, so I know a bit about his temper. He said that he came to find you because he was worried that you would be caught by the reporters." At first, people would think that he had no human feelings, but as long as you understand him a little, you will know that there are a lot of things that he's just using his way to care about you. "
Xiao Yan had his own way of caring for and pampering a person.
Qiao Mo was a little angry, "Could it be that he doesn't know how to speak properly?"
Difficult to communicate.
However, even if it was the truth, it still wouldn't be able to erase the sadness and disappointment in her heart.
Song Xiazhi had always been a wall in the heart between them.
And... Su drew a child for him. Although they were not husband and wife at that time and she had no right to be jealous of his past, which woman could endure that her husband had once had a child with another woman? She wanted to comfort herself with the thought that everyone had a past, but what could she do? The wall in her heart was simply impossible to cross.
… ….
At this point, there were very few taxis on this road.
Xiao Yan was almost unable to get a taxi.
He stood in the cold wind and waited for twenty minutes.
In the end, he called Zhao Qian with an angry tone. It was unknown if he was angered by being unable to get a taxi, or by being angered by that little woman.
"After you send me off, come here to pick me up!"
"…" Zhao Qian, who was at the side, "…"
… ….
The man's temple jumped as Maybach came into view.
Seated in the back seat, who else could it be other than Qiao Mo?
He opened the door and got in.
Qing Leng's expression was arrogant and spoiled, "Hmph, aren't you saying you won't sit in the same car as me? Why are you back now? "
A deceitful little liar.
If you let me wait in the cold wind for too long, I will definitely blame Assistant Zhao. Since this will implicate the innocent, then I will send you back to the hospital first and then return to the Xiao family. "
What Qiao Mo said made sense, and was reasonable.
This time, it made Xiao Yan speechless, "You …!"
Zhao Qian saw the two of them quarreling behind him. It was rare to see someone who dared to disobey the boss. Moreover, they blocked him from being able to speak even half a sentence. He was in a state of disbelief.
Xiao Yan's black eyes were deep as he stared at her small face that was hidden in the half light and half darkness. His lips hooked up into a playful smile: "In the middle of the night, you told me that the roof was blocked, do you think I would believe you?"
Qiao Mo glanced at him indifferently, and then lied in earnest: "An accident occurred."
"I remember the way back to the Xiao family. I don't need to pass the elevated platform."
Xiao Yan was smart, he was like a fox. With just a slight raise of his eyebrow, he calculated that Qiao Mo was too inexperienced, he could not defeat him.
After Xiao Yan recognized the problem, a hint of satisfaction slipped past his deep brows and eyes.
He suddenly leaned over and whispered into her ear, "It's because I can't bear to let the cold wind blow. Yet, you still dare to be stubborn? "
However, Qiao Mo was not shy like usual. She raised her head and stared at the man's handsome face, "You also feel that it's difficult to say something that is not your heart? Could it be, 'Qiao Mo, don't stand here and let the cold wind blow, come back with me', that wouldn't be the case?
The man was startled. He stared at her opened and closed lips and was a bit drowsy.
Heh, trap.
She had set this up on purpose, waiting for him to jump in and then return the favor.
Yes, that's true!
