"How do you want me to trust you …" Hai Lan's voice was soft and her face was sorrowful. At this moment, from the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of a figure. Her voice was sluggish and her expression showed a moment of panic.
Her strangeness attracted the man's attention. He followed her gaze and saw Hai Xiaoming walking past in the corridor. He casually turned his head and just happened to meet their gaze.
"Sis, you're here?" Hai Xiaomin greeted him without any change in expression. In the blink of an eye, she saw someone else. Her pretty face turned cold, "Qiao Tianqi, why are you here?"
"Little Min, Young Master Qiao came to see you." Hai Lanyin hurriedly explained.
Only then did Hai Xiaomin notice that Qiao Tianqi was still clutching a bunch of fresh flowers.
Qiao Tianqi looked at Hai Lanyin, then looked at Hai Xiaomin. The taut Jun Pang seemed to be trying his best to hold something back, blue veins popping out as he walked up to Hai Xiaoming in three steps. She was so shocked that she took a step back, "What are you trying to do?"
"Look at you!" He bulged his eyes, looking at Hai Xiaomin from top to bottom as if he was going to eat her, and said in a low voice while gnashing his teeth, "It's such a pity that you didn't get beaten to death."
After saying that, he threw the bouquet of flowers into her arms, turned around, and left.
Hai Xiao Min: "..."
This was the first time she had seen someone deliver flowers like this.
When the two Hai sisters returned to the ward, Hai Lanyin took out the chicken soup from the thermal insulation cup and said, "I stewed this for you on purpose. Drink it as soon as it's warm."
Hai Xiaoming drank two mouthfuls of the soup and nodded in satisfaction, "Un! This is delicious, Sis. You should try it too! "Oh right, there's something for you!"
She put down the bowl of soup and rummaged behind the pillow for a delicate little gift box. "See if you like it?"
Hai Lan Yin opened the small box in a daze. A sapphire ring appeared before her and she exclaimed, "This is?"
"Birthday gift." Hai Xiao Min smiled with a trace of cunning in her eyes. "Your birthday school didn't have a holiday, and you didn't go home, so you had to make up for it later."
This ring was the one she bought at the mall two days ago. When she tried the ring, it was slightly tighter in size and Hai Lanyin's fingers were only a bit thinner than hers.
Hai Lanyin looked at the ring with a shocked expression on her face. She opened her mouth after a long time. "Little Min, I …"
"Ding Ling ~" A bell rang, reminding the doctor that it was time to change.
"I'm going to the bathroom." Hai Lanyin hurriedly fled through the door.
After entering the washroom, she leaned on the sink and looked at the beautiful sapphire interface. She thought of something and her eyes reddened. She quickly poured some water on her face.
In the ward, Hai Xiaomin held up the bowl of soup, lowered her eyes and murmured, "When can I be braver …"
The next morning, Qiao Tianqi was called back to the Qiao family mansion.
Due to the scandal of the mall these few days, Father Qiao was so busy that he could guess with his toes that this was most likely the reason why he had called him back today.
Qiao Tianqi stood outside the door of the study room to sort out his thoughts. Then, he turned the handle of the door and entered. He asked, "Dad, what do you need me for?"
"It's nothing. Do you think I want to see you?" Sure enough, at the moment Father Qiao was angry, the moment he opened his mouth, a thick wave of anger came surging out. He even treated the tablet as a book and casually threw it out, "Take a look for yourself!"
Since his father's generation, the Qiao family had been on good terms with each other. In Qiao Tianqi's generation, it wasn't easy for them to get a chance to get engaged to each other and set up this marriage. In the end, the two of them agreed that one was playing with a man while the other was playing with a woman!
It was one thing for him to play with the women outside, but in the end, he actually let that kind of woman bully his fiancée and almost caused the Qiao Family to collapse. If it wasn't for the fact that his mother left early, leaving only this one son, Qiao Liang would have really wanted to kick him out of his house.
Facing his father, Qiao Tian Qi could only obediently receive the lecture. He held back his anger as he took the tablet and looked at the contents on it. In the end, his eyes widened as he became more shocked: "How could it be like this? Didn't the rumors on the internet stifle it? "
Qiao Liang took a deep breath and calmed his heart. "You've caused quite a bit of trouble this time. On Hai Li's side, with the relationship between the two families, there is still room for reconciliation. But the Tang Clan's girl was implicated for no reason. On the surface, they were gathering evidence and going through legal procedures. They were secretly dealing with us and spreading the news on the internet. I spent money to suppress the public opinion, but last night, another mysterious force stepped in and used the troll army to hype up the matter. "Now that online public opinion has fallen, it's impossible to suppress it even if you want to."
"Who is it? "Who did it?" Qiao Tianqi finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
"..." "LY." After a long while, Qiao Liang finally spat out this word with a grave expression.
Qiao Tianqi frowned deeply. He was unable to understand it as he asked, "What are they trying to do to us?"
Could it be … He suddenly thought of a bad guess.
"Business competition." As if he was tired of standing, he turned around and sat down, and leisurely said, "It can't be said to be a business miracle that LY developed to this point in just a short dozen years. Although their focus is on medicine, they have never given up on expanding to other fields, and in recent years, they have also started to deal with food and beverages. And on this side of the country, the first thing they have to do is to establish a firm foothold in H city."
Looking at his son's thoughtful face, he continued to analyze, "However, no matter how strong the LY is, they have only grown up for a short period of time, and the domestic market has basically formed a stable business system. If they want to come in and get a share, they must deal with the local companies. "Unfortunately, I just received news that LY is preparing to build a business square at the east district …"
"..." We plan to buy the land and use it to build a business square. However, you also know that the Qiao family mainly deals with the shopping mall, with many chain stores under them. They are also a big shareholder in more than ten other large stores, and the resources in City H are basically all taken up by the Qiao family. "If LY wants to rise up in H city, Qiao family will have to be the stumbling block!"
Ling Yao played with the ring on his pinky finger as he smiled confidently: "Tang, are you willing to cooperate with me?"
Tang Xuan adjusted his glasses and smiled. "I'll help you take this step. It will be a big turmoil for the entire city."
In front of the bright French windows, there was a coffee table, two chairs, and two important young men sitting together. They discussed a topic that ordinary people could not come into contact with.
"LY is a business, not a government. How to grasp the balance of the market is the way to survive in the long run." In response to Tang Xuan's worries, Ling Yao gave his own opinion, which was the future development of LY.
