Chapter 26 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 25Next chapter: Chapter 27 Sang Yao could feel that Mrs. Xiao had been in high spirits these past two days and walked with wind. She originally thought that after such a conversation, Mrs. Xiao would definitely find this matter very difficult and embarrassing, and then fall into an emotional low.

Mrs. Xiao had a smile on her brows and eyes. She couldn't hide her words in front of Sang Yao, and soon she shared the good news with Sang Yao.

"I have been worried about your eldest brother's affairs before, and he was not very willing to arrange a blind date for him. I knew he was busy with work, so I didn't dare to mention it again. I didn't expect that he would take the initiative to let me watch the arrangements."

Sang Yao can understand Mrs. Xiao's excitement very well.

It's simply unscientific for a top guy like Xiao Chengxiu to never have a girlfriend. Of course, it's normal for him to be busy with work and not have time to fall in love.

But from Mrs. Xiao's point of view, nothing is as important as her son's lifelong events. There are also rumors about Xiao Chengxiu's sexual orientation. Mrs. Xiao has not said it openly. I am afraid only she knows whether she has any doubts in her heart.

Now that Xiao Chengxiu offered to go on a blind date and get in touch with the opposite sex, Sang Yao would not be surprised even if Mrs. Xiao cried with joy.

"That's great." Sang Yao also said, "When eldest brother finds sister-in-law, the three of us can take grandma shopping."

"You really touched my heart." Mrs. Xiao looked through her network of contacts , recalling the girls of the right age in each family.

Before Sang Yao went to work, Mrs. Xiao stopped Sang Yao again and handed her the thermos pot in her hand, "You and Cheng Xiu both work together. This is the soup cooked by Auntie. You bring it to him. "

Sang Yao looked at Mrs. Xiao's subtle smile and when she carried the thermos pot to the garage, she suddenly realized that this soup couldn't be the kind of soup she thought of, right?

Probably not, Xiao Chengxiu looks good. If you really want to compare, even though Xiao Jingqiao is several years younger than Xiao Chengxiu, he doesn't seem to be in as good a state of mind as Xiao Chengxiu.

Sang Yao shook her head. Based on her understanding of Mrs. Xiao, this soup was definitely not a tonic soup.

If it was really that kind of tonic soup, it would be extremely embarrassing for her, the future sister-in-law, to deliver it.

Although Sang Yao did not publicize her relationship with Xiao Jingqiao, she did not shy away from being known by Aida and Wei Jing. When she arrived at the company and learned from Wei Jing that Xiao Chengxiu had arrived at the office, she left with the thermos box while the other party was stunned. Knocked on the door of Xiao Chengxiu's office.

Xiao Chengxiu was working, and Sang Yao walked to the desk, put down the thermos pot, and then said, "Brother, this is the soup that my aunt asked me to bring you."

"Yes." Xiao Chengxiu responded.

Sang Yao thought to herself that there was nothing wrong with her. Just when she was about to turn around and leave, Xiao Chengxiu suddenly stopped her.

He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Did my mother say anything to you?"

Xiao Chengxiu was asking about the conversation between his mother and her about Jingqiao.

Sang Yao's first reaction was about Xiao Chengxiu's blind date.

She wasn't going to lie, so she said: "Brother, Auntie is very happy. She was always worried that you were neglecting your life because of work. Now you think about it, she is really happy."

Xiao Chengxiu was stunned for a moment, and waited for a reaction. Only then did I understand what she was talking about.

"Yes." Xiao Chengxiu's eyes returned to the computer and his tone was calm, "You go out to work first."

No matter how slow Sang Yao was, he noticed that Xiao Chengxiu didn't seem to be as active in the blind date as Mrs. Xiao described.

Come to think of it, before time travel, none of her friends were tired of urging people to get married and go on blind dates.

Sang Yao recalled the plot of the original work. Xiao Chengxiu had always been a background character and did not appear many times, but it seemed that he didn't have a girlfriend until the author cut off the story, right? Or maybe there is, but the author didn't write it.

Forget it, she shouldn't worry about other people's affairs. It's not her turn to sympathize with a big boss like Xiao Chengxiu. She should pity herself when she has time. Acting like this every day and pretending to like that idiot Xiao Jingqiao is really tiring! I will never diss some actors again. It’s not easy for them. I don’t know if her acting skills are also eye-catching in the eyes of others.

Xiao Jingqiao also found out that Xiao Chengxiu wanted to go on a blind date through a phone call with his mother. He couldn't help but feel a little awkward. He always felt that his eldest brother might have agreed to go on a blind date because he listened to his words. Why should he? He was so angry at the time that he actually It is too much to say that to the eldest brother. After all, the eldest brother is also doing it for his own good and will not harm him.

After thinking about this clearly, Xiao Jingqiao felt that he didn't need to worry too much about face when facing his eldest brother. That night, he went directly to the apartment where Xiao Chengxiu lived, bringing a bottle of wine and food bought from the restaurant.

Xiao Chengxiu let him in expressionlessly.

Because Xiao Chengxiu always had that expression, and Xiao Jingqiao was also big-hearted, he didn't notice Xiao Chengxiu's unwelcome attitude towards him.

Xiao Jingqiao put the wine and food on the dining table and said to Xiao Chengxiu: "Brother, we haven't had a good chat for a long time. I will stay at your place today."

"I have already eaten." Xiao Chengxiu said.

"Then eat something with me and have a drink."

Xiao Jingqiao first poured himself a glass of wine and took a sip. He was not going to mention the blind date. He could guess that his eldest brother was definitely not enthusiastic about this kind of thing.

Xiao Jingqiao was basically talking the whole time. Xiao Chengxiu's expression was indifferent, and I don't know if he listened.

After Xiao Jingqiao drank two glasses of wine, he was already a little drunk. He started chatting and murmured, "I really regret that I couldn't think of getting engaged at that time. If I hadn't been engaged, I would have nothing to do now. Just Because of my relationship with Sang Yao, I don't dare to pursue the person I like. So, the saying "Young and ignorant" is true. If only I could go back to the past, I wouldn't be with Sang Yao even if you beat me to death. Yao is engaged!"

Although Xiao Chengxiu didn't respond, Xiao Jingqiao still said what was in his heart as if he had found a tree hole, "If I had known that playing with Sang Yao when I was a child, I would have haunted her for so many years. Me, then I won’t play with her. She obviously liked to stick to you in the beginning. Well, thinking about it this way, brother, you don’t like anyone anyway. It would be great if you were the one engaged to Sang Yao. "

As soon as he said this, he suddenly woke up and looked at his elder brother's expression. He quickly said, "Brother, that's not what I meant. I just said it casually.

" Glanced at him.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingqiao got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water. If he didn't wake up sober, he would probably say even more stupid things, and then his eldest brother wouldn't be so easy to talk to.

***

Mrs. Xiao was very concerned about Xiao Chengxiu's blind date. After a week of screening, she finally arranged a date for him.

Mrs. Xiao showed the photo to Sang Yao, and the smile on her face showed how satisfied she was with this person, "This is the young lady of the Zhuo family. She has just turned twenty-seven this year, and is more than three years younger than Cheng Xiu." , the age is also suitable. I also heard from Mrs. Zhuo that this Zhuo Rou has liked Chengxiu a long time ago. What a coincidence, they both went to the same high school, but when Chengxiu graduated, She has just entered junior high school and has been listening to Cheng Xiu’s various deeds. She does not have a boyfriend. She has just returned to China this time and is planning to start her own company. After a preliminary understanding, I think they should have something in common. You Say what?"

Miss Zhuo in the photo looks pretty, plus she and Xiao Chengxiu are schoolmates, and she has always had a crush on him...

This is really interesting, no wonder Mrs. Xiao is so happy.

Even Sang Yao felt that Xiao Chengxiu would most likely develop a relationship with Miss Zhuo.

Xiao Chengxiu did not refuse. Under the arrangement of Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Zhuo, the two met in a Western restaurant. If nothing unexpected happened, they would go to a concert after dinner.

Zhuo Rou also didn't expect that one day she would have the opportunity to date Xiao Chengxiu.

She is not very beautiful, and her appearance is only average. Today, she specially asked a stylist to design makeup and hair for her. She even selected the dress for a long time. People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. After being carefully dressed, She looks a little prettier than usual today.

It's just that Xiao Chengxiu doesn't talk much, and she doesn't want to talk about academic work. Based on the information she knows so far, she doesn't know what Xiao Chengxiu is interested in.

She couldn't find any topic, and was afraid of being left in the dark. Suddenly she thought of something that her best friend told her a few days ago. The protagonist of this matter had a problem with Xiao Chengxiu, and maybe Xiao Chengxiu would be interested.

"When I was in school, I heard that you were always ranked first, and Senior Meng Zheng was ranked second." Seeing Zhuo Rou mention Meng Zheng, Xiao Chengxiu glanced at her and knew that he had picked the right topic, "You Are you related to Senior Meng Zheng?"

"No."

Zhuo Rou chuckled, "No wonder, Senior Meng Zheng is in big trouble now. This matter has spread around the circle. He actually likes his nephew. Where is my girlfriend?"

Xiao Chengxiu's expression changed suddenly.

Zhuo Rou didn't notice it and continued: "It's really interesting. This is a scandal. My friends all said that I'm completely shameless. It's not good to fall in love with anyone. If you like your nephew's girlfriend, this is a problem with your character and psychology. It's a little abnormal. "

Xiao Chengxiu and Meng Zheng are not familiar with each other. They didn't have much contact after graduation. In the past, it was just because of academic differences. For some reason, things started to change from time to time, saying that he and Meng Zheng had different opinions. Meng Zheng had a problem, saying that he and Meng Zheng didn't get along and looked down on each other.

The word "guilty conscience" was vividly reflected in Xiao Chengxiu at this moment.

When Zhuo Rou reacted, Xiao Chengxiu's eyes were like blades, and there was cold air pressure all over his body, which actually gave people the illusion of being in the twelfth lunar month of winter.

Did she say something wrong? ? ?

Chapter 27 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 26Next chapter: Chapter 28 Mrs. Xiao was so happy a few days ago, but now she is so sad that she can't even eat dinner.

Sang Yao vaguely guessed that Xiao Chengxiu's blind date must not have gone smoothly.

No need to wait for her to ask, while watching TV series after dinner, Mrs. Xiao sighed and said: "It seems that Miss Zhuo is not Chengxiu's type. The two of them stopped talking after dinner, and Chengxiu didn't even ask Send her back. I called him and asked him, but he said it was inappropriate for him to be with Miss Zhuo."

Sang Yao comforted the old mother who was worried about her son, "This kind of thing is normal. I have a friend who went on blind dates for more than ten times before meeting the right one. Auntie, I think you are too impatient."

"Really?" Mrs. Xiao also looked sad, "I understand my son, he is not that ignorant. A polite person, he left after eating this time. It seems that he really doesn’t like that Miss Zhuo, Yaoyao, you don’t know, this Chengxiu has a reserved temper, he hides everything, I really I'm afraid that if he continues like this, it will be difficult to find a suitable partner. Will he have to devote his whole life to work? "

This is what the authorities are confused by.

Mrs. Xiao was just too impatient and didn't even take realistic factors into consideration.

Sang Yao said, as long as Xiao Chengxiu is rich enough, what if Xiao Chengxiu is not married at the age of forty?

Most parents in the world may have this idea, hoping that their children can get married so that they can have companions in the future. Of course, once they get married, they can legitimately have children.

In her opinion, in this life, don't expect anyone to be your companion all the time. People are inherently lonely. People without money need to rely on each other when getting married. Why should rich people be afraid of being alone?

As for having children...again, if you have money, are you afraid of not having any offspring?

However, telling the truth will make her look very realistic and powerful, which will affect her personality. After thinking about it in her heart, Sang Yao said: "I heard from my colleague that the more mature this man is, the more attractive he is. The eldest brother is older and older." Not old, only thirty years old. He is mature, stable, handsome and capable. Many people like him. As long as the elder brother is willing, he can find a twenty-year-old younger sister, so you really don’t have to worry about his age. La."

Not to mention that Xiao Chengxiu is only thirty years old now, he is forty or fifty years old, and there are still a lot of people lining up to become Mrs. Xiao.

She will become a rich woman in the future. As long as she is happy, she can raise an obedient and sensible little puppy even in her forties.

Mrs. Xiao's living environment is relatively simple. Before she got married, she was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. She and her husband also got married on a blind date. Mr. Xiao's style is very decent. He has never done anything that violates the moral bottom line. He is also devoted to his wife. They are married. We have been together for more than thirty years. Although there have been quarrels, the relationship has not changed.

Her parents are very affectionate, and although her parents-in-law are married, they treat each other like guests and respect each other. Under such circumstances, her thoughts are relatively simple.

Hearing what Sang Yao said, Mrs. Xiao felt a little relieved, "Forget it if you are twenty years old. The age difference is too big and you are not sensible."

Sang Yao pretended to be unhappy and said: "Auntie, I am only twenty this year. "Two."

"That's different." Mrs. Xiao took Sang Yao's hand and said with a smile: "I think our Yaoyao is very sensible and is the best 22-year-old girl."

Under Sang Yao's comfort . , Mrs. Xiao is no longer so worried about Xiao Chengxiu's unsuccessful blind date.

She also feels that her eldest son is very good and one day he will meet the right person.

"By the way, last time I went to Nanling Temple to ask for a peace charm for you, I also asked for a signature for Cheng Xiu. The signature said," Mrs. Xiao lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "The signature said, Cheng Xiu Xiu can get married by the end of next year, and Nanling Temple's lottery is very accurate."

Sang Yao: "..."

It's autumn now. At the end of next year, isn't it only about a year?

Getting married in one year, if true, is really fast.

One year, if everything develops according to the plot of the original work, then she is already widowed. No, no, if her biological brothers have already died, how many months will Xiao Chengxiu get married? Too fast!

Forget it, just listen to this unscientific thing.

Although Sang Yao thought so in her heart, she still looked amazed and convinced, which made Mrs. Xiao very satisfied.

***

The old lady stayed in the hospital until all indicators were stable, and then she went through the discharge procedures.

Mrs. Xiao refused to cling to her no matter what. As the doctor said, there were really two pros and cons. When she closed her eyes, the child was not by her side. What a pity it was. If the old lady doesn't want to go abroad, there's nothing she can do about it, but at least she has to stay at Xiao's house.

The old lady probably knew her situation, and after fighting for a few times, she agreed.

The day she was discharged from the hospital and returned to Xiao's house, Xiao Chengxiu also came back.

After dinner, the old lady called Xiao Chengxiu and Sang Yao into the room, and closed the door mysteriously. After making sure that there was no one else in the room, she tremblingly took out a bag from her bag. Small carved wood jewelry box.

Opening the jewelry box, there was a pair of rings inside.

Sang Yao looked at the old lady's kind smile and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, the next second I heard the old lady say: "This is the wedding ring for my husband and I. He designed it himself. Now I give this ring to you. I hope you like it."

Sang Yao is actually not very fond of it . Understand, although Mrs. Xiao said that the old lady's memory had deteriorated and she could not remember many things clearly, she felt that the old lady was obviously awake, so why did she think that she and Xiao Chengxiu were a couple? It's simply an unsolved mystery.

Xiao Chengxiu was silent for a moment, and at the urging of the old lady, he took the jewelry box.

I thought it would be over here, but it turned out that they were still too young and too simple. The old lady then said with a smile: "Silly grandson, put the ring on Yaoyao. It's not for you alone."

Xiao Cheng Xiu also realized that this request was a bit embarrassing, at least for Sang Yao. He looked at her as if asking for her opinion.

"What are you still doing? Put it on her." The old lady urged.

Sang Yao nodded silently.

To put on a show, you have to do a full set. In order to take care of the old lady's mood, they have already acquiesced to her misunderstanding. They danced together last time. This time they just wore a ring. It was not embarrassing for her.

She has been getting along with the old lady for some time. In the original world, she was not liked by her grandma and had never enjoyed the warmth and love from her grandma. The old lady was very good to her. She was not an unkind person. Who would treat her well? Well, she would be nice to anyone. If someone was not nice to her, she would not look at that person twice.

Xiao Chengxiu also nodded gently as a thank you.

After all, Sang Yao had no obligation to accompany them in this scene.

Xiao Chengxiu took out the female ring from the jewelry box, turned sideways, and stood face to face with Sang Yao.

Sang Yao took the initiative to reach out her hand. Xiao Chengxiu hesitated, took her hand, and with the old lady's smile, put the diamond ring with a long history on her ring finger.

"That's right."

Without the old lady saying anything, Xiao Chengxiu handed the men's ring to Sang Yao. Sang Yao understood it and put the ring on him.

For a moment, the scene really resembled the scene of exchanging rings at a church wedding.

Sang Yao subconsciously looked up at Xiao Chengxiu, and he happened to look over as well.

I don't know if it was due to the atmosphere, but Xiao Chengxiu's expression was not so cold.

The old lady seemed to have something to say to Xiao Chengxiu, so Sang Yao left the room very considerately. She looked down at the ring on her ring finger and couldn't help but think, she didn't know how long this white lie could last.

This ring belongs to the old lady and is very commemorative. Her original intention was to give it to her grandson and granddaughter-in-law, so she should find an opportunity to return the ring to Xiao Chengxiu later.

Otherwise, this ring would be so awkward and inappropriate for her. After all, she is Xiao Jingqiao's fiancée now, and she might still be his wife in the future. She has the same wedding ring as Xiao Chengxiu, so there is something wrong with her.

After Sang Yao left the room, Xiao Chengxiu helped the old lady sit on the lounge chair in the room. He didn't say anything. He didn't know if he was not used to wearing such a wedding ring. He subconsciously looked at his ring finger several times. .

The old lady held the Buddhist beads in her hand and said to Xiao Chengxiu, "Have you and Yaoyao had any conflicts recently?"

Xiao Chengxiu was startled and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

"You can't hide anything from me. Yaoyao is no longer close to her. It seems that you don't dare to get too close to her because of something." The old lady sighed, "Did grandma say something wrong?"

Xiao Chengxiu was silent.

"You have always liked to do everything by yourself since you were a child, but relationships, work, and study are all different. If you don't tell me, who will know what you think?" The old lady said, "What do you think?"

Xiao Chengxiu remained silent.

The old lady asked again, "Do you like Yaoyao?"

Xiao Chengxiu's expression was a little unnatural, and his right hand unconsciously tightened, as if he was resisting answering this question.

"Look, you don't even want to tell grandma what's in your heart." The old lady said very depressedly, "Now that I'm still here, I can still help you occasionally. But now that I'm gone, I'm really worried that you and Yaoyao won't be together for long. If you miss the person you like, you will really regret it."

Xiao Chengxiu looked at the ring on his ring finger. He didn't know how long it took before he lowered his head and said in a low voice: "If you get too close, you will lose it. Be rational and make mistakes that you shouldn't make."

In his position, who can follow their heart? There are some people that you can't like, and there are some mistakes that you can't make.

After saying this, he raised his head and found that the old lady had fallen asleep on the couch. He laughed to himself, took off the ring and put it into his shirt pocket.

It would be best if no one heard what he was saying and no one understood what he was saying.

Chapter 28 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 27Next chapter: Chapter 29 Xiao Chengxiu picked up a thin blanket and covered his grandmother before leaving the room.

When he went downstairs to go back to his room, he happened to bump into Sang Yao. After all, their rooms were on the same floor, so it was not surprising that they met.

Sang Yao politely called him: "Brother."

She took off the ring and handed it to him. She had been thinking about this line in her heart for a long time. She felt it was appropriate and natural, "Brother, this is given to you by grandma. "It's my future sister-in-law's. I can't hold it. It's more appropriate for you to keep this ring."

Originally, she wanted to add, "You can give this ring to your wife in the future." But then she felt that this was a bit awkward, so she told her. Xiao Chengxiu's relationship didn't seem to be so good yet. No matter what he thought, it was Mrs. Xiao or the old lady who told him this, so he swallowed it silently.

Xiao Chengxiu stared at the ring in her palm, and after a while, he said in a calm tone: "Grandma gave this to you, just take it."

He may not have meant that, but after being in power for too long, what he said , actually gives people a sense that cannot be refused.

To Sang Yao, Xiao Chengxiu is the Dinghai Shenzhen, Xiao Jingqiao's fiancé, and her immediate boss.

Her immediate boss said so, so how could she still dare to bargain with him and show humility to each other?

She found that the ring on Xiao Chengxiu's ring finger was also missing. He took it off, and her imagination immediately opened. With Xiao Chengxiu's behavior, would he give the men's ring to Xiao Jingqiao?

It's very possible, no, it's 100% possible!

Originally, Sang Yao liked this ring quite a lot. After all, the design was really beautiful. Even after decades, the style has not gone out of style, and the diamonds are still so dazzling. Now, when she thought of herself and Xiao Jingqiao wearing wedding rings, she felt physiologically. produce a feeling of disgust.

Sang Yao didn't put the ring back on, but held it in her hand.

Xiao Chengxiu glanced at her, as if he wanted to say something to her, but he didn't say anything until he opened the door to his bedroom.

Sang Yao thought he was going to rest and said quickly: "Brother, I won't disturb your rest."

Xiao Chengxiu stared at her and nodded after a few seconds.

Sang Yao breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to walk towards her bedroom. She didn't know why, maybe it was the aura from the superior person. She felt that every time she was with Xiao Chengxiu, there was an indescribable feeling. The feeling is indescribable, and the whole body will enter a state of alert.

After Sang Yao left, Xiao Chengxiu leaned against the bedroom door and spread out his right hand. There was a ring in his palm. He had used so much force just now that his palm was a little red.

***

The diamond ring designed by Xiao Jingqiao himself was ready. When he got it, he was very excited. Even though he knew that his grandma was discharged from the hospital today and he should go back, he put this matter behind and did not talk to Shen Lu. The main reason for calling her was to give her a surprise, and he drove directly to the apartment where Shen Lu currently lived.

Shen Lu no longer lives in Zhou's house and has moved out long ago. Xiao Jingqiao has also come to pick her up several times, so she is familiar with the family.

Before he got out of the car, he sat in the driver's seat, opened the ring box, and looked at the diamond ring that contained all his hard work. He felt an unprecedented impulse in his heart. As long as Shen Lu was willing, he could do anything for her, even for her. The whole family fought, and he was willing.

It was precisely because of his engagement with Sang Yao that he saw more clearly that he must be with the person he truly loves in this life.

Xiao Jingqiao got out of the car with all his determination. The apartment where Shen Lu lived now was also a bit old, but the greening was very good. He closed the car door and walked towards the apartment building. When he raised his head, he saw that he was not far ahead. There was a young couple holding hands, very sweet.

He liked Shen Lu so much that he recognized her at a glance, and next to her was Zhou Qingyan.

He had heard a long time ago that Shen Lu and Zhou Qingyan grew up together and had an extraordinary relationship.

He didn't believe it because Shen Lu told him that she didn't have a boyfriend.

Zhou Qingyan was holding a plastic bag from the supermarket in one hand and holding her in the other. When he talked about happiness, she even smiled and leaned on his shoulder. Even from such a distance, she could feel how happy they both were. sweet.

Xiao Jingqiao froze on the spot.

It wasn't until they entered the apartment building that Xiao Jingqiao returned to the parking space with heavy steps. He opened the car door, sat in the driver's seat, and stared at the ring box expressionlessly.

His eldest brother even said that Shen Lu was using him, and he didn't believe his family.

Xiao Jingqiao felt sad and uncomfortable. He didn't even have the qualifications to catch up and question him because he and Shen Lu were just friends.

Why should a friend interfere in her private affairs?

He drove all the way back to Xiaozhai. The house was very busy today because his grandmother was discharged from the hospital and moved here, but he just wanted to lie down in bed. As soon as he went upstairs, he met Sang Yao who opened the door and was going to get some fruit downstairs.

Sang Yao was wearing a pink casual suit, with her slightly curly long hair tied into a bun, looking lively and youthful.

Sang Yao bumped into Xiao Jingqiao unexpectedly, and Sang Yao still didn't react. However, during this period, she had already initially acquired the entry level of an actor. She has always been a perceptive student, and now she immediately trotted up to him in surprise. , thinking in her mind, "Money, money, Xiao Chengxiu is the richest person on the list," and she was mentally prepared for Xiao Jingqiao, a bitch, to be impatient with her again, "Jingqiao, you are back, have you eaten? If not, I'll let the kitchen cook it for you. "

Eat, eat, eat your shit, this bitch should starve to death.

Xiao Jingqiao was so uncomfortable at this time that he was no longer in the mood to ridicule Sang Yao. He looked at her surprised smile and expectant eyes and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Those who love him look down upon him, but those who love him regard him as a fool.

Maybe in Shen Lu's eyes, he is just another Sang Yao, and this is retribution.

Yes, retribution.

Before Sang Yao could say anything else, Xiao Jingqiao took out the ring box from his pocket and handed it to her. His eyes were wandering and his tone was a little cold, "Here's this for you. If you don't like it, you can throw it away."

As soon as Sang Yao saw the ring Box, the first reaction in my heart is - how many rings have to be collected today, what a good day it is!

She was not reserved, after all, the character of the original owner was here. When she opened the ring box, she was furiously posting barrages in her heart - Damn it!

This ring can definitely be regarded as a pigeon egg level. The diamond is so beautiful that it is blinding!

The smile on Sang Yao's face now was genuine. No matter how annoying Xiao Jingqiao was, she was so happy when he gave her such a pigeon egg ring. In this world, she can't live with anything. You can't live with money.

Although the original owner also has a lot of jewelry, no one would dislike having too many diamonds. The more of these things, the better. Even if she does not become a rich widow as she wishes, these things in her hand will be enough for her. Having a good time.

"Jingqiao, thank you." Sang Yao looked up at Xiao Jingqiao, with smiles in her eyes, like stars, "I like this ring so much, it's very beautiful." She liked the big diamond, but she thought about it. Not wanting to destroy the character, he added, "Diamonds are second best. This design is great, and you can see the designer's profound intentions."

She doesn't know what to design. Of course, the design of this ring is also very ordinary, but the original owner is a rich lady. It's hard to praise this ring by boasting about the size of the diamond, so you can only praise the design concept.

Xiao Jingqiao really wanted to laugh.

This is the first time he has actually designed a diamond ring, but the one he really appreciates is Sang Yao, whom he desperately wants to get rid of.

Xiao Chengxiu opened the door to the room and saw this scene.

He looked with deep eyes.

Xiao Jingqiao heard the sound and quickly said hello to him, "Brother, you are at home too."

He was in a really bad mood now, so he said: "Brother, do you have time? Please go fencing with me if you have time. We have been together for a long time. Gone."

Sang Yao's mind was now full of that blinding pigeon egg, and she was calculating the value in her heart. She suddenly became more satisfied. She raised her head and met Xiao Chengxiu's eyes, although she was not considered a person. Very sensitive, but not slow. At least she could feel it now. Not only Xiao Jingqiao was not in a good mood, but Xiao Chengxiu didn't seem to be in a good mood either...

What was wrong with the two brothers.

It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with her whether they are in a good mood or not, she is in a good mood, she is happy now, that's enough.

Xiao Chengxiu watched her answer Xiao Jingqiao's question, "Yes."

The two brothers went to another room in Xiao's house together. Both Xiao Chengxiu and Xiao Jingqiao liked fencing very much, and this was their daily fencing place.

After changing his clothes, Xiao Jingqiao felt that his eldest brother's aura had changed, as if he had murderous intent, leaving him no room to fight back.

In terms of fencing, Xiao Chengxiu's level is naturally undeniable, but Xiao Jingqiao is not weak either. The two brothers used to fencing together. Although Xiao Chengxiu won a lot, it has never been like this. This made Xiao Jingqiao very embarrassed, even if he spelled Even though he tried his best, he was always at a disadvantage.

Xiao Jingqiao lost several times in a row. He sat on the ground and looked at his elder brother with lingering fear.

He didn’t know why, but just now he thought he was his elder brother’s enemy...

What happened?

Xiao Jingqiao panted, looked up at Xiao Chengxiu, and asked in confusion: "Brother, have I offended you somewhere?"

This was not an illusion, the eldest brother had a murderous aura just now, but he didn't seem to have any during this time. Did you do something wrong? I've done a good job at work. Although I had an argument with my elder brother last time, it's all over...

It's really puzzling.

Xiao Chengxiu looked at him condescendingly, and Xiao Jingqiao couldn't see his expression clearly through the mask.

Xiao Chengxiu said nothing, turned and left with a solemn aura.

The author has something to say: Today is the third update!

The first update will be delivered ~

Chapter 29 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 28Next chapter: Chapter 30 After Sang Yao returned to the room, she admired the pigeon egg carefully. I accidentally saw the engraving on the inside of the ring - X&S.

Sure enough, it is a straight man style. This X is undoubtedly Xiao, and what about S.

Of course, she has no other advantages and is very self-aware. This S is definitely not Sang, so it can only be Shen. In Xiao Jingqiao's case, the original owner is a dog-licker, but in the heroine Shen Lu's role, he plays It's almost the same role.

The heroine Shen Lu and the hero Zhou Qingyan have known each other for more than 20 years and have lived together since childhood. Most people cannot get involved in their relationship. They cling to each other and are extremely attached. Xiao Jingqiao is just Shen Lu and Zhou Qingyan. It was just a carefully selected target. From the beginning to the end, they fought side by side. With such a friendship, it was simply a dream for Xiao Jingqiao to rise to the top.

Xiao Jingqiao's desperate look when he came back today was enough to prove that he was defeated by Shen Lu.

He wanted to give this ring to Shen Lu. No matter what the reason was, he confiscated it. In short, he was sad and sad, and then he happened to come back and meet her, so he simply treated her like a trash can and gave her the pigeon egg.

Although she was not the original owner and could not sympathize with the original owner's feelings, she was happy to think that Xiao Jingqiao was uncomfortable.

Sang Yao didn't bother to hide herself in the room and laughed happily.

This is called retribution.

I believe Xiao Jingqiao should know better than anyone what the original owner was feeling before.

She is really bad. Sang Yao raised her hand to cover her mouth and smiled so happily. Although she didn't like the heroine very much, but thinking about it carefully, she was the only one who could make Xiao Jingqiao miserable from beginning to end. Well, in the original work, the heroine secretly despises Xiao Jingqiao. She complained to Zhou Qingyan that a man could be so cruel to his childhood fiancee whom he had been with for more than twenty years. This kind of man can no longer be used. To describe it as scum.

Thinking about it this way, she should light a row of candles for Xiao Jingqiao.

As for this pigeon egg...

no matter who gave it to whom, she is still happy to be the receiver. It is not impossible for rich people to use her place as a garbage recycling station. As long as the garbage is all pigeon eggs, she will do it. Don’t refuse.

At the same time, Xiao Chengxiu returned to the room. He originally wanted to take a shower before leaving. When he opened the door to the room and looked at the bathroom, the things that happened that night came to mind again.

Only now did he realize that he was also a layman.

At this moment, he didn't even dare to go into the bathroom, because he was afraid that he would not be able to help but think about many things. She had been to this room, and she had also been to this bathroom. Obviously, there was no trace left, even though all of this The furnishings were all the same as before, so why did he always have the illusion that the whole house was filled with the faint scent of milk?

Xiao Chengxiu turned off the lights in the room. It was already autumn and it got dark earlier, so the room instantly became dark.

He didn't know how long he stood there. What was he thinking about at this time? Thinking about her across a wall, he thought, it would be better if he didn't come back that night.

No, nor is it.

If you can hide once, what about two, three, or four times?

Is it useful to regret it at this time and think about what would have been better if it hadn't happened?

Xiao Chengxiu turned around. He always stood upright. This was the image of President Xiao, but at this moment, his back looked a little bleak.

***

Sang Yao is at best a soy saucer in the secretarial department. Wei Jing does the chores and other important things, and Ada does the important things, so when Ada holds the cup and laments that Mr. Xiao has not been here for a week When she went to work, she was still a little confused.

Ada added: "Maybe the company has had some big changes in the project, and Mr. Xiao has not been on a business trip. The last time something like this happened was when I first came to the company."

Wei Jing continued smoothly, "Maybe Mr. Xiao is on vacation."

"How is that possible?" Ada denied this without thinking, "It's only a few months until the end of the year, and the company has big projects, so Mr. Xiao is relatively free. I didn’t even take a vacation at that time, and it’s even more impossible at this time. I guess I should be working from home. "

What on earth was Xiao Chengxiu doing?

Sang Yao knew the answer on Saturday morning. She had made an appointment with Mrs. Xiao to have morning tea. As soon as she came downstairs, she saw Mrs. Xiao with red eyes and an eager expression.

Mrs. Xiao was carrying her bag and said when she saw Sang Yao: "I just received the call. Cheng Xiu was hospitalized for stomach bleeding a few days ago. The same goes for this child. He didn't hide it from everyone and didn't go to a familiar hospital. He waited until he was almost healed. , just called to say! "

Stomach bleeding?" Hospitalized?

By the time Sang Yao reacted, she had already been pulled into the car by Mrs. Xiao and headed to the hospital where Xiao Chengxiu was.

Mrs. Xiao has always been graceful and elegant. Now she is like most mothers. Although she knows that her son is fine, she is still worried. Under this kind of worry, it is inevitable to nag.

"The same goes for Chengxiu. He has not had regular meals because of his work, but he doesn't drink either. I don't know what happened this time. He drank until his stomach bleeds. I called his doctor and found out that he didn't just have stomach bleeding. He was bleeding, and he stayed up late for several days. I don’t know why he was so desperate." Mrs. Xiao started to feel sad and distressed again as she spoke, "Your uncle is nothing. If he wants to retire, he just pats his butt and travels around the world. How could Chengxiu not be under great pressure when such a big company was left to Chengxiu? The same goes for Jingqiao. Chengxiu took over the company when he was as old as him, and he still doesn't know what he is doing every day. He has no idea of sharing the worries for his elder brother. No, what a bastard!"

Now Mrs. Xiao is blaming almost everyone. Sang Yao felt that she was by her side now, otherwise Mrs. Xiao might also complain about her.

Mothers who love their children deeply are like this, and she can understand it.

It wasn't until she arrived at the hospital parking lot that Mrs. Xiao reluctantly stopped, but after venting like this, her mood was not so bad.

Mrs. Xiao came in a hurry and only brought Sang Yao with her. When they arrived at the ward, Xiao Chengxiu was lying on the bed reading emails.

Xiao Chengxiu's eyes stayed on Sang Yao for a few seconds, then quickly moved away and asked them to sit down calmly.

Sang Yao did not sit down, she stood beside Mrs. Xiao.

Fortunately, Xiao Chengxiu was almost healed and his face looked fine. Sang Yao felt that if Mrs. Xiao had come over and seen her beloved eldest son's pale face when he was first hospitalized, she might have fainted from crying.

Mrs. Xiao was extremely distressed, "Tell me about you. Even your mother hid such a big thing. Also, I heard Dr. Wang said that you drink and stay up late. What other psychological burden is there? What are these? Not for work? No matter how important this job is, it is not as important as your body!"

Sang Yao was also confused. Logically speaking, Xiao Chengxiu has been in this position for seven or eight years, and she should have adapted to it after all. I heard there that the company's situation is very good. So, does his psychological pressure come from work? If this is really the case, then being a boss would be quite pitiful.

Xiao Chengxiu glanced at Sang Yao, then looked away, and comforted his mother in a gentle voice: "Well, it's actually not serious, and it will never happen again."

Today's Mrs. Xiao is actually even more fragile than Xiao Chengxiu, she keeps nagging, Even Sang Yao felt that Mrs. Xiao was a bit too wordy.

Probably in order to divert his mother's attention, Xiao Chengxiu offered to drink the soup she made by herself.

After her son said so, Mrs. Xiao didn't waste any time and quickly left with her bag. Originally, Sang Yao was following her to leave the ward, but Mrs. Xiao stopped her for a very good reason: "This ward It's better to keep one of my own here, otherwise I won't worry."

Although Sang Yao didn't think there was any use in staying here, Mrs. Xiao was right, so she had no choice but to stay.

Coincidentally, as soon as Mrs. Xiao left, Xiao Jingqiao came.

Sang Yao felt that the two brothers must have something to talk about. It was inappropriate for her to stay in the ward, so she just found an excuse and slipped out. This floor was the inpatient ward. She sat on the bench and prepared While scrolling through my phone to kill time, a child came over with a bubble machine and said in a sweet voice: "Sister, can you play bubbles with me?

" Four years old.

Sang Yao nodded with satisfaction, "Just call me sister, and I have to play with you."

This kind of bubble machine is very popular now. Sang Yao is playing with the bubble machine, and the children are chasing the bubbles. The two of them All laughed happily.

The environment of this hospital is not bad, and the corridors of the inpatient department are very sunny.

Sang Yao held the bubble machine and raised her head slightly to look at the bubbles in the air.

This scene is very dreamy.

When Xiao Chengxiu and Xiao Jingqiao came out, this was what they saw.

She seemed very happy, and her eyebrows were crescent when she smiled. The children chased her and hugged her legs. She also lowered her head and reached out to touch her little head.

There is no one in this world who does not like beautiful people and things.

Xiao Jingqiao thought that he would not fall in love with anyone other than Shen Lu. Thinking about it from another perspective, if he couldn't be with Shen Lu, then it wouldn't matter who he married in the end. He might as well marry Sang Yao. At least he and Sang Yao have known each other for so many years, and they are very familiar with each other, right?

Xiao Chengxiu was wearing a hospital gown, but he straightened his back when standing. Xiao Jingqiao next to him didn't look as straight as him.

His eyes were deep, and there was some emotion surging inside, but he hid it so well that others were almost unaware of it.

Both of them were tall, and when they suddenly came out, Sang Yao and the little girl saw them quickly.

The little girl pulled Sang Yao's clothes.

Sang Yao bent down and put her hair behind her ears, knowing that this child wanted to whisper to her.

The little girl pointed at Xiao Chengxiu and whispered to Sang Yao: "Sister, that uncle likes you."

The author has something to say: Thank you to the little angel who voted for me or irrigated the nutrient solution ~

Chapter 30 Turn off the lights small medium large Previous chapter: Chapter 29Next chapter: Chapter 31 Sang Yao was amused by her words. Who would believe what a child said? She stretched out her hand and scratched the little girl's nose, and laughed softly: "You still know whether you like it or not? Then you Do you have a boyfriend?"

The little girl blushed, and her attention was instantly diverted, "No!"

Other people's children are cute. Before she traveled through time, Sang Yao had no idea about getting married and having children. Any interest, but this does not prevent her from liking other people's children. Of course, this also has a prerequisite. They must be beautiful and cute, but not naughty children.

The little girl in front of her was just the kind of kid she would love.

She looks pretty and cute, dresses well, and looks clean.

Sang Yao has always been very patient with the people she likes.

"Yes, yes." Sang Yao spoke to her again, "Is your boyfriend good to you?"

Xiao Jingqiao and Xiao Chengxiu walked up to them and heard these words.

The two brothers were quite surprised. After all, Sang Yao was in her twenties and this little girl was at most four years old. Is it really politically correct for a person in his twenties to talk to a four-year-old?

In Xiao Jingqiao's impression, Sang Yao didn't like children. She found them annoying. Have you changed your gender now?

After the little girl was shy, she opened her heart to Sang Yao. She raised her head and said, "He is very good to me. He can jump rope with one leg and shoot the ball with both hands!"

Sang Yao was also very supportive. She said in an admiring tone: "Then your boyfriend is so awesome!"

"Your boyfriend is also awesome, he's so tall!" The little girl glanced at Xiao Chengxiu and said to Sang Yao, "Your boyfriend is here. I can't be a light bulb, sister, I'll play with you later!"

When Xiao Jingqiao heard the little girl calling him Sang Yao's boyfriend, he was a little unhappy at first, but then he calmed down.

In Sang Yao's heart, he is her boyfriend, fiancé, or even husband.

Thinking like this, he looked at Sang Yao, who was smiling gently at the little girl.

From beginning to end, many things have changed over the years, but the only thing that has not changed is Sang Yao's feelings for him.

Before leaving, the little girl looked at Xiao Chengxiu again and said to Sang Yao: "Sister, your boyfriend is also very handsome!"

Sang Yao couldn't stop laughing.

Xiao Chengxiu has been watching them all the time. He knows very well that the little girl misunderstood that he was Sang Yao's boyfriend.

He lowered his head and looked down at his hands. Today, he never said a word to Sang Yao.

***

The next day was Sunday, and Mrs. Xiao took Sang Yao to the hospital early in the morning. Sang Yao had no objection to going to the hospital to see Xiao Chengxiu. After all, she also hoped that Xiao Chengxiu would have a good impression of her, so that no matter whether she would marry Xiao Jingqiao or become a rich widow, he would protect her. Holding her. Facing a boss of such a level, it is too obvious to directly gain favor. It is better to gain a sense of presence and leave a good impression on him. This impression can be "a filial and obedient daughter-in-law" or "an infatuated and unrepentant brother". "Daughter-in-law"...

As long as Mrs. Xiao needs someone to accompany her, as long as she has time, it is best for her to stay together.

Originally, Xiao Jingqiao also came to the hospital. He hadn't sat down for a while when his cell phone rang. When he saw the caller ID, his expression happened to be seen by Sang Yao.

Okay, no need to guess, the person calling must be the heroine Shen Lu.

Although Xiao Jingqiao looked like he was dying some time ago, Sang Yao concluded that as the heroine's loyal dog, he would definitely answer the phone and be ready for the heroine's summons.

Sang Yao was not interested in him. She glanced at him and looked away, just in time to see Xiao Chengxiu looking at her.

Oops! She probably didn't show any expression of contempt and disgust just now! ! There should be no broken characters! ! !

It was still too late, she could make amends.

She smiled bitterly at Xiao Chengxiu, and then saw Xiao Jingqiao holding his mobile phone and going out to answer the call. She called out to the bitch in an aggrieved voice, "Jingqiao, don't leave."

Xiao Jingqiao's footsteps paused, but only for a few seconds. He didn't He ignored Sang Yao and went out directly.

Hit her in the face again.

Oh, even though she knew what the plot was like and how Xiao Jingqiao got along with the original host, she experienced the feeling of not being able to get off the stage again and again.

Don't offend anyone but a woman. Xiao Jingqiao obviously doesn't understand this yet, so don't let her find a chance, otherwise...

Sang Yao tried her best to hold back the redness in her eyes.

She had the most beautiful and clear eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes now, and she was holding back the tears from falling.

Mrs. Xiao went to the doctor's office to inquire about future maintenance matters. She, Xiao Chengxiu and her aunt were the only ones in the entire ward.

When the aunt saw this, she couldn't comfort Sang Yao, so she could only lower her head and go about her own business.

Sang Yao whispered: "I'm going to the bathroom."

This ward has its own bathroom. What she didn't know was that when she went to the bathroom, Xiao Chengxiu sat up subconsciously.

When Sang Yao got to the bathroom, her expression returned to normal. She was really... forced by reality to become half an actress. With her current conditions and background, joining the entertainment industry shouldn't be as difficult as before. Are you forced?

Well, she just thought about it, now she is only one step away from being a rich woman, so she should work harder in this area!

Although Xiao Jingqiao had been really miserable for more than a week and his mood was much lower, but when Shen Lu called him, he came back to life with full health. The other party invited him to visit the company's office. He completely forgot about the sadness during this period. Just take one bite.

"Jingqiao, you are the only shareholder of our company. You must decide on the location of this office." Shen Lu said in a very sincere tone on the phone, "I have already thought about this company name. Let's discuss it, Jingqiao, thank you very much. You have helped me a lot. No one has ever been so kind to me."

After hearing what Shen Lu said, Xiao Jingqiao seemed to have forgotten that he was watching downstairs in her apartment that day. All kinds of arrivals.

He returned to the ward with his mobile phone and didn't see Sang Yao, but that didn't matter. He said to Xiao Chengxiu apologetically: "Brother, I'm sorry, I have something to do today. I will come to see you after work tomorrow. "

Xiao Chengxiu looked at him indifferently, "No need."

Xiao Jingqiao didn't take Xiao Chengxiu's reaction to heart. He just wanted to find Shen Lu quickly.

When Xiao Jingqiao left the ward, Sang Yao hadn't come out yet.

Sang Yao wanted Xiao Chengxiu to know that she was hurt. Although she couldn't hold back her tears, she still turned on the faucet and deliberately let out the water, as if to cover up her crying.

Auntie sighed. Privately, I felt very sorry for Sang Yao. Judging from Xiao Jingqiao's behavior just now, no one in this room knew that it must have been that shameless vixen who called him away again. It’s not like the vixen hadn’t been to Xiao’s house last time. She had seen it before. His appearance and temperament were not even one-tenth of Sang Yao’s. She really didn’t know what Xiao Jingqiao liked about that vixen. .

Originally she was very fond of complaining, but when she saw that the young master was the only one in the ward, she had to give up.

Xiao Chengxiu stared at the TV hanging on the wall. He listened to the sound of water coming from the bathroom. He could imagine that she was suppressing herself, maybe crying silently. He subconsciously clenched his fists and closed his eyes.

Sang Yao really didn't care what Xiao Jingqiao was like, but the affection he showed now made her feel at ease, feeling that even if the plot deviated slightly, the general direction would remain the same.

When Sang Yao reorganized and came out of the bathroom, her aunt was busy. Xiao Chengxiu was holding his cell phone, and it looked like he was chatting with someone.

She just sat obediently on the sofa and played with her mobile phone.

Of course, I also recalled her various actions just now, and felt that I shouldn't have exposed her secrets, which made me feel relieved.

Rather than losing her character in front of Xiao Jingqiao, she was more worried that Xiao Chengxiu could see her strong contempt for his brother.

Xiao Chengxiu was indeed chatting with his friends.

Song Ling has been his friend for many years. He is also a well-known upstart in the industry, and his methods are not ordinary.

"Help me find out what happened between Zhou Qingyan and Shen Lu recently." Xiao Chengxiu typed this line and sent it out. Under his investigation, Shen Lu had always wanted to take advantage of Jingqiao, and every time he had a purpose, but he didn't know what the reason was now. No matter what they planned, he They won't get what they want.

Song Ling was still surprised. You must know that Xiao Chengxiu always made calls when he could and rarely sent text messages. Now he had the patience to chat with him on WeChat. It seemed that Xiao Chengxiu couldn't bear Zhou Qingyan's flirting anymore. .

"Okay." Song Ling thought for a moment and sent another message, "That's not right. Don't you always care about these unfounded things?"

Although everyone in the Zhou family misunderstood that Zhou Qingyan was hooking up with Xiao Chengxiu. Xiao Chengxiu himself knew the fishiness involved, but he didn't pay attention to it. Firstly, he didn't have time, and secondly, it didn't matter. He didn't even bother to care about these trivial matters.

Now that Xiao Chengxiu had such an attitude, and because he had not renewed his contract with the Zhou family before, Song Ling had a bold guess that Xiao Chengxiu was going to mess with Zhou Qingyan.

As long as Xiao Chengxiu wanted to attack Zhou Qingyan, Zhou Qingyan would have no ability to fight back.

But he was still curious, what prompted Xiao Chengxiu to change his attitude? This is something unprecedented!

Xiao Chengxiu has always felt that it is best for him not to interfere in other people's affairs. Even if the other person is his biological brother, he is already an adult and should take responsibility for many things and his own choices.

He had heard the saying that all the blisters on your feet were caused by yourself.

But now...

Xiao Chengxiu replied to the message: "It's not unreasonable."

Was what Xiao Jingqiao did unreasonable? Are her tears unwarranted?

The author has something to say: For the male protagonist, today is another day when he heard the "pillow style" √

For the female protagonist, today is another day that quietly changed the plot √

Seeing the little cuties who are looking forward to it every day Big Brother drinks, and asks Big Brother not to be a human being... In fact, when I was saving and typing the manuscript, I was more impatient than you. I wanted to go to Shura Field every minute and write about Big Brother's Yaoyao stuffed with soy sauce, but my hands didn't listen. In the past, I put more thought into shaping the heroine than the male protagonist, which resulted in the image of the male protagonist being too thin. The eldest brother is the one in power, he is shrewd and stable. It is hard for me to imagine that such a person would break such ethical and identity barriers without going through a painful struggle and sinking when he falls in love with his future sister-in-law (it is very easy to fall in love with the future sister-in-law) My sister-in-law breaks through obstacles easily to pursue her. I kind of look down on this kind of person. After all, the reason why people are human is that they have a moral bottom line.)

This process that everyone is anxious about is actually the process of sublimation of the eldest brother's relationship. , He was able to suppress and hold back at first because he was not in need of Yaoyao, nor was he in love. Only when he had sunk in thoroughly enough would he choose to explode.

Hey, I’m so verbose today, I’ll send you a hundred red envelopes in this chapter~Mom~
