When Lan You saw the tall and indifferent figure, she asked doubtfully, "Hey, isn't that Qiao Yanli?" After saying that, she looked at Xia Yanxi's little face that couldn't tell the difference between happiness and anger, and her doubts deepened, "You two in argument?"
Xia Yanxi was too embarrassed to tell Lan You that she almost killed Qiao Yanli, so she turned around and asked him, "Have you chosen the cufflinks?"
Lan You nodded, "You've made your choice, do you want to buy a pair with Qiao Yanli as well?"
Xia Yanxi couldn't help but look in the direction of Qiao Yanli, and saw Mengyao walking towards him carrying a delicate shopping bag. I don’t know what he said, but Mengyao’s delicate eyebrows instantly curved.
Seeing that scene, Xia Yanxi felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. She wanted to grasp what it felt like, but she couldn't.
…
underground garage.
Mengyao was waiting for Qiao Yanli in the Bentley. After inspecting the mall, he sat in the back row.
"Yanli, your birthday is coming soon. I bought you a shirt. I don't know if you will like it." Mengyao looked at his carved, cold and beautiful face, and her heart was beating hard.
He is obviously not young, but every time I see him, he looks like a young girl.
Qiao Yanli glanced at Mengyao coldly with his deep black eyes, and did not ignore the delicate blush on her face. He took the exquisite handbag containing the shirt from her and put it aside casually, "Thank you. "
Ever since he died once, he has been very precious with his words. Although she saved him again, he did not have an ambiguous attitude towards her or give her hope.
As he said when he was discharged from the hospital, he owed her, but that kind of debt could not be made up for by love. From now on, he will treat her as a relative, and as long as she needs it, he is willing to pay for it with his life.
He is such a well-organized man, unlike some men who have vague attitudes and give people hope. Probably because he was so cold-hearted and rational, she fell in love with him more and more.
It didn't matter if he couldn't respond to her. As long as she could be by his side and care for him silently, she would be content.
"How do you want to celebrate your birthday?" The atmosphere in the carriage was too depressing, so she tried to find a topic to break the silence.
Birthdays no longer have any meaning to Qiao Yanli. On that day, he will only remember that it was his mother's mother's day. As a son, he failed to protect his mother and did not let her enjoy a single day of happiness. The most unfilial thing was that he had not been able to avenge her in these years and even married the daughter of her enemy.
Mengyao saw Qiao Yanli's thin lips tightened into a straight line, and the outline of her face became increasingly cold. She mustered up the courage to break the suffocating silence again, "Why don't Fu Yan, Mu Zhi, Shao Ze and the others arrive?" Let’s have a homely meal together at Shengyuan Villa!”
He nodded indifferently, "Yeah." After saying that, he took out his cigarette and lowered his head to light it.
The carriage was filled with smoke, and Mengyao wanted to take the cigarette away from his fingertips several times. However, his expression was too cold, and she did not dare to take the cigarette from his hand.
"Yanli, Shaoze has told me that your current body is not suitable for smoking." She reminded carefully.
Qiao Yanli turned a deaf ear and looked out of the car window, her eyes becoming colder, darker and harder to understand.
…
Xia Yanxi and Lan You came out of the specialty store and browsed in other stores. When they were leaving the mall, a man in a suit and leather shoes, carrying a briefcase and wearing glasses, who looked elegant and smart, found her.
"Miss Xia? Hello, I am Mr. Qiao's lawyer Minglou."
