At the same time, in a high-end private room in the imperial city, Xiao Qinghe walked out of his private room and answered a phone call. After hearing the other party's words, he opened his mouth and said, "Since she is already back, you don't need to follow her for now.

The other party hurriedly replied to his words. After Xiao Qing He hung up the phone, he returned to the private room.

Mu Chen had just finished drinking a cocktail and saw that Xiao Qinghe's expression was as cold as ever. However, he still opened his mouth to ask, "Are you sure you want to leave your engagement banquet to us? Did you know that your brother called my uncle to tell him about this a few days ago? "

Xiao Qinghe coldly glanced at him, "It is just an engagement banquet and not a real marriage. Why are you making it so complicated?"

Mu Chen noticed that his mood really wasn't good. He didn't know why a man in his early thirties was acting like he had an early menopause, and didn't look happy at all. He handed him a cup of wine and probed, "No matter how I look at it, you don't seem like you're going to get married soon." He didn't dare to say anything else. Instead, he looked like he was about to conduct a funeral.

Xiao Qinghe looked at the time and kicked the naughty Mu Chen. "The reason you invited me out tonight is to discuss the construction of your new hotel. If you want to talk about what happened earlier, then I'll be leaving."

"Go, and be careful on the road." However, he silently cursed in his heart. The uncle and nephew were indeed the same. They were always in a bad mood and liked to use their feet to kick people.

"Mu Chen, you should leave earlier." Xiao Qinghe had already picked up his jacket and was about to leave when he suddenly turned around, "I saw that you and Jia Yu were very popular recently. Xiao Qinghe had already picked up his coat and was about to leave when he suddenly turned around," I saw that you and Jia Yu were very popular recently.

Mu Chen curled his lips as he watched him leave. Only when the door closed did he say in a speechless manner, "It's not like I rely on my looks to make a living. Besides, I don't need anyone else to like me."

Xiao Qing He's expression became even more unsightly after he left the meeting. He let the driver return first and walked around the vicinity. He felt that his mind had cleared a little before he drove away. He was originally planning to go home and sleep, but his hands seemed to be completely out of his control. Not long after, he stopped at Xiao Jia Yu's apartment.

He got out of the car, took out a cigarette from his bag, and lit it. He looked up at the floor where Xiao Jia Yu lived.

It was unknown how long Xiao Qinghe stood outside until his legs were numb before he returned to the car. He started the car, but suddenly he didn't want to go. Staying here, a few floors away, he could at least pretend to be close to Nacho once more.

Xiao Qinghe turned off the engine again and sat in the car, silently thinking about what had happened in the United States between him and South Joe. At that time, the family of four had been extremely happy. Everyone in their family had liked that adorable little sister of Nanqiao. But because of the experience of being abandoned as a child, Nan Qiao had never been a cheerful and lively child. His family was also trying their best to warm her up, especially him. He never knew that he would be so nervous.

Afterwards, things happened very suddenly. Nan Qiao, who had lost his adoptive parents, was even more heartbroken than him, who had lost his biological parents. If it wasn't for him coaxing her to stay with him every day, it would be hard for Nan Qiao to walk out. However, from that moment on, Nan Qiao became more dependent on him. It seemed that other than him, no one else had anything to do with her. He did not think much about it at the beginning and was very glad that Nan Qiao had finally walked out from the passing of his parents. He did not even think that his feelings for him had long since changed.

In the end, Xiao Qinghe's eyes turned red. He lethargically leaned against the back of the chair he had lowered and fell asleep, until the sun rose.

Xiao Jia Yu contacted Xing Jiaxuan early in the morning and gave her number to Nan Qiao, who was preparing to go out and meet Xing Jianxuan. They would go to Xiao Jia Yu's home together later.

A few years ago, Nan Qiao still paid attention to what she was wearing. These two years, she had become more and more casual, but because she was going to be on TV today, she still dressed a little. She wore a long sleeved dress with a thin windbreaker. She had heard Xiao Jia Yu and Xing Jiaxuan contact each other earlier, but she was still a bit worried right now. She found her cell phone from her small bag and pressed a call to Xing Jianxuan, confirming the meeting place with her.

When she was about to hang up, she suddenly noticed that there was a Cadillac she was very familiar with parked by the road. She took a deep breath, subconsciously not believing that he would be here, forcing herself to look at the license plate number, causing her to stop breathing for a moment.

Nan Qiao was stunned on the spot for a moment. In the end, he felt that this kind of meeting was unavoidable, so he took the initiative to knock on the window.

Xiao Qinghe was awoken by the sound of glass being knocked on. When he discovered the familiar figure standing outside, he was stunned for a moment before hurriedly pressing down on the window.

Almost as soon as the window rolled down, she smelled a strong scent of smoke. She coughed twice before asking, "How did you get here so early in the morning?" She really thought it was a miracle he hadn't been killed in the car by the smell of her own smoke.

Xiao Qinghe was at a loss for words and couldn't find any reason to answer her. However, Nan Qiao didn't seem to care about his answer and said, "You should be working today. If you don't leave now, you will encounter a traffic jam. You will definitely be late for work." She could only pretend that she didn't care as she chatted with him like an old friend, not saying anything more.

At this time, Xiao Qing He finally opened his mouth and asked, "Since you have returned, why didn't you inform me in advance?"

Nan Qiao smiled, but a trace of ridicule could be seen underneath the smile. "Didn't you already know that I'd come back?"

Xiao Qinghe lowered his eyes slightly. He pursed his lips and asked again, "Do you still want to leave this time around?"

This time, the smile on Nan Qiao's face disappeared, leaving behind only ridicule: "You should ask your aunt about this question. I won't say anything if I say it."

Xiao Qinghe said without much strength, "Qiao Qiao, I want to have a good talk with you."

Nan Qiao looked at the time on his watch and replied, "It's not that I don't want to exchange pleasantries with you, but I really have something on right now. I have to leave immediately." She deliberately emphasized the word 'pleasantries'.

"Qiao Qiao, I really want to have a good talk with you." Xiao Qinghe seemed to believe that she was only looking for an excuse.

Nan Qiao frowned. "I don't need to use such a small matter to deceive you. It's really an urgent matter. Today, I want to go to that program recorded by Carnivore. I have to go pick him up now."

Only then did Xiao Qinghe reluctantly believe her words. However, he still said, "Then we will arrange a time for tonight to come out and discuss. I will send you over to where you are going now."

Nan Qiao was already impatient. "I can go over by myself."

At this time, Xiao Qinghe opened the door and got out of the car. He grabbed one of her hands and wanted to bring her back to the car. "It's nothing. I'm not busy right now, so I'll take you there."

At this time, Nan Qiao completely erupted, he flung his hand away and shouted at him: "Xiao Qing He, you are really too much, I said I will go myself, who do you think you are to me? What right do you have to mind my business? "

Xiao Qinghe's expression was somewhat helpless as he said, "I only wanted to send you there."

Nan Qiao's expression was so ugly that he was on the verge of tears, "Xiao Qing He, why are you still able to pretend that nothing has happened? You don't want us to go back to being siblings, do you? You know, you're not my brother at all. I'd rather have grown up in an orphanage if I knew. The heavens have never been fair to me. They let me enjoy the warmth your family brings me, but they want me to repay even more. "I don't want to get any closer to you. If I get closer to you, my injuries will only get deeper."

However, Xiao Qinghe suddenly pulled her into his embrace, closed his eyes and suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, "Qiao Qiao, I will soon be engaged to Lin Jing. Once everything between her and I has been decided, you must tell me if you have anyone you like. I've made quite a bit of money in the past few years, so I'm not much use to myself, but I've prepared quite a bit of dowry for you. Even if my parents were to go, you are still my, Xiao Qing He's, sister after all.

She had yet to recover from what she had just heard as she stared blankly at Xiao Qinghe for a while before suddenly raising her hand and slapping him, "Xiao Qinghe, you are a bastard. Just how vicious are you to be able to say what you have just said. I really want to take out your heart and see if it is made of stone." She ran away crying. She had clearly already felt heartbroken countless times, but this time she still heard the sound of heartbroken heart.

Xiao Qinghe watched her run away. He clearly wanted to chase after her, but he forced himself to get on the car. His mind was full of what he had heard from South Joe, and when he came to, he realized that the corners of his eyes were wet. He started the car and drove away.

Xiao Jia Yu stood in front of the balcony and saw Xiao Qing He and Nan Qiao meet. However, they were too far away to hear what the two of them had said. She could only see Nan Qiao run off in the end. She sighed, looked away, and returned to the living room.

Xiao Jia Yu changed into the dress that Mu Chen had given her yesterday. The weather was already a little cold, so she wore a small cardigan over her dress. She sat quietly on the sofa for a while, feeling a little nervous from start to finish. She got up and went into the kitchen to look at the ingredients for lunch that she had prepared beforehand, then went into the bedroom to carefully check if there were any underwear that had been tossed into the corner by her.

At ten in the morning, Mu Chen came to his door, while Xiao Jia Yu hastily opened it. Mu Chen saw her hug her first, then handed her a box saying it was a present for today.

Xiao Jia Yu brought the box into the living room. At this time, Mu Chen also sat beside her. He smiled at her and asked, "Guess what's inside?"

Xiao Jia Yu looked at the box and replied without thinking, "It must be some kind of jewelry."

Mu Chen smiled and told her to open it.

Xiao Jia Yu hurriedly opened the box. Sure enough, it was a Cartier necklace.

At this time, Mu Chen opened his mouth and said, "Previously, when I bought this dress for you, I conveniently bought this necklace. I felt that it was very fitting, but I actually forgot to give it to you yesterday."

Xiao Jia Yu hurriedly passed the necklace to him, looking a bit embarrassed: "Since you specially bought it for me, then hurry up and help me put it on."

Mu Chen answered with an "oh" and hurriedly got up to help her put on the necklace. After the necklace was put on, he sincerely praised, "My eyesight is really good. You look really good dressed up like this."
