"I ate a little." She didn't have much appetite at noon, mainly because she wasn't very hungry, so she just had a few bites.
"You're so thin, how can you only eat a little?"
"Come on, come on, I've ordered a seafood dinner. Let's go and have a good meal to celebrate."
Cen Xingyuan immediately stood up and pulled her out.
Su Qiao quickly said, "Then I'll change my clothes."
Cen Xingyuan's eyes fell on the red cherry pajamas she was wearing, and he rolled his eyes: "After dinner, let's go shopping together. I see a lot of beautiful clothes that are suitable for you."
Su Qiao quickly stated: "I don't want lace, or a doll collar, or a princess dress, or a cute pleated miniskirt."
Cen Xingyuan: “…” I have no interest in life anymore, not even these beautiful clothes.
She also planned to custom-make for her various princess dresses, lace court dresses, and those beautiful little dresses from comics.
"Xiao Qiao will be back to review soon, don't disturb her."
Cen Mohan snatched Su Qiao from her hands and motioned for her to go inside to change clothes.
"Okay, let's go together next time."
Cen Xingyuan's interest was not as high as before.
"I will fly back tomorrow, and once I have settled my business, I will fly back right away and bring you a gift."
"Okay." Su Qiao nodded and hurried back to the bedroom.
She did not go to the closet to look for clothes first. Instead, she took out her cell phone, walked to the balcony, and called Cen Yue.
When Cen Yue received the call from Su Qiao, she was discussing the withdrawal of investment with her former partners.
After learning that the three members of the Wang family had so shamelessly gone to Su Qiao's house to ask for a reconciliation, he immediately became furious.
Although most of the responsibility for her current situation lies with herself, it is undeniable that part of the reason is that she snatched Wang Zhiyao away, which aroused Su Qiao's hatred and Cen Mohan's jealousy.
If she hadn't provoked Wang Zhiyao and made an exception to bring him to his side, Cen Mohan would not have shown her the last bit of mercy.
It was only after she begged Su Qiao and Su Qiao spoke up that he reluctantly let her go.
She didn't even dare to have the thought of revenge against Cen Mohan and Su Qiao.
Because the power disparity is too great.
She has lived for so many years and has been in the business world for so many years, so she has some self-awareness.
So, even though she was very angry and very unwilling, she had no choice but to accept the reality.
*
The day after Cen Yue received Su Qiao's call, she took Wang Zhiyao to get the certificate.
Wang Zhiyao was reluctant to go at first, and the Wang family members were also reluctant. But after Cen Yue said that as long as he married her, she would give him 500,000 yuan to help his family pay off their debts and then transfer the 180-square-meter house in the city center to them, they all happily agreed.
Since they sold their old house, they rented this small house on the outer ring road. Not only is the location remote, the house is small and shabby, there are cockroaches everywhere, rats often run around in the corridor and kitchen, and there is no large supermarket nearby.
They don't have a car, so they can only walk or ride a small electric bicycle to buy groceries or other things. In the hot summer, they will be covered in sweat after going out.
Not only that, the people living around here are all migrant workers, who often sit shirtless by the roadside flower beds, drinking cold beer in groups, eating snacks, laughing loudly and chatting about dirty things.
All of this is a far cry from their previous clean and quiet life.
They've had enough of this.
