Tong Wenbin relaxed his brows, was silent for a few seconds, raised his hand and patted her shoulder, "Don't blame dad, dad is doing this for your own good."
Tong Qiao lowered her head and said nothing. It was obvious that although she had agreed to the marriage, she was still angry with him in her heart.
Tong Wenbin patted Tong Qiao on the shoulder again and sighed, "Go ahead."
Tong Qiao came to Fancheng, and as she expected, she was really pregnant. Fortunately, Shu Xin was with her when she was most worried and helpless. Shu Xin accompanied her to see a doctor and made an appointment for artificial intelligence 20 days later. Abortion surgery.
But the matter hadn't been resolved yet. The morning after she and Shu Xin moved into a new community, she received another call from home. Xia Daiyun said that Tong Wenbin had been reported for corruption and bribery, and that he had been taken away.
The successive blows made Tong Qiao mentally and physically exhausted. It was only then that she realized that Tong Wenbin forced her to marry Lu Jinshen to protect her, but she had previously misunderstood that he was selling her happiness for his own position.
On the way back to the capital, Tong Qiao hugged Shu Xin and cried bitterly.
Back home, Xia Daiyun fainted because of excessive worry about Tong Wenbin. Tong Qiao took care of her in the hospital, and Shuxin helped handle Tong Wenbin's case.
Tong Qiao felt that Shu Xin was her sunshine. When she was in the most difficult and controversial time, Shu Xin did not leave her. Instead, she helped her investigate her father's case and successfully solved it.
Let her be saved in the darkness.
Tong Qiao couldn't imagine that without Shu Xin's company during this period, she would be able to survive with her father imprisoned, her mother hospitalized, and the outside world full of rumors.
A friend in need is a friend indeed, which is probably what she and Shu Xin are like.
Tong Qiao believed in her heart that Shu Xin would be her biological sister from now on, and she would fight anyone who dared to bully Shu Xin.
After Tong Wenbin's matter was resolved, Shu Xin and Huo Yanqing returned to Fancheng, while Tong Qiao stayed in the capital. This time, her father and mother were frightened a lot, and she wanted to spend more time with them.
At the same time, Tong Qiao also wanted to understand one thing. She must be responsible and have the courage to take responsibility. She planned to give birth to the child. It was her doing. The child was innocent, and she could not let the child take responsibility.
It's just that it's not appropriate to tell her parents about this now. They have just experienced a disaster. Tong Qiao can't bear to frighten them anymore, and she is also worried that Tong Wenbin will drag her to beat the child for her own good.
Tong Qiao planned to take it one step at a time and tell them when the child was a month old and she couldn't hide it anymore. At that time, spanking had a great impact on the mother's body. Her parents loved her so much that they would not be willing to let her suffer.
After Tong Wenbin's matter was resolved, he no longer forced Tong Qiao to marry Lu Jinshen. The father and daughter agreed to meet Lu Jinshen when he returned from his mission and called off the marriage.
Everything was going in the right direction. Tong Qiao was in a good mood. Every day she would either play chess with Tong Wenbin or go shopping with Xia Daiyun, and then secretly raise her baby. Her little life was very nourishing.
The comfortable days came to an end after Lu Jinshen came back.
Tong Wenbin came back from get off work that day, and Tong Qiao obediently went over and took the briefcase from his hand, "Dad, are you tired? I'll make you a cup of tea to relieve your fatigue."
"No need." Tong Wenbin walked towards the sofa, "Qiao'er, come here, dad has something to tell you."
"Oh." Tong Qiao sat down next to Tong Wenbin, put down his briefcase, and squeezed his shoulders thoughtfully, "You tell me, I'll listen."
Tong Wenbin's face was filled with relief that his daughter was considerate, but when he thought of what he was going to say next, his brows slowly wrinkled again, "The chief is back. He said he will go with you to get the certificate tomorrow, and then the marriage will be done as soon as possible."
Tong Qiao paused in his movements, frowned and said, "Why is this old man so anxious? I didn't agree to marry him."
"Qiao'er, you can't speak so openly when you see him tomorrow." Tong Wenbin's expression became serious.
"Dad, you don't really want me to go get the certificate with him, do you? Didn't we agree to cancel the engagement? You can't go back on your word."
Tong Wenbin took the little hand on his shoulder and turned to look at Tong Qiao, "It's not about collecting the certificate. I made an appointment with the chief for you to meet tomorrow. We will talk about getting the certificate later. He agreed. Dad won't do anything you don't want to do. I will force you, but it was dad who proposed the marriage first. No matter what, it was us who broke the promise. Dad hopes that you will have a better attitude when you meet him. After all, we are the party in the wrong."
Tong Qiao breathed a sigh of relief instantly, "I understand, Dad."
next day
Tong Qiao took the mirror and took a closer look. The woman in the mirror had a lot of freckles under her eyelids and also on the bridge of her nose. At first glance, she looked a bit unbearable.
"Is it too obvious?" Tong Qiao muttered to herself, then took out the powder puff and patted it on her face, slightly covering the freckles to make them look more natural.
The old man agreed to marry her without even meeting her. He must have thought she was young and beautiful, but she didn't believe that he would agree to marry her if she met him like this.
There is no need for her to break off the engagement at that time, the other party will definitely not want her anymore.
Tong Qiao smiled when she thought of this. This was a clever idea that she came up with after thinking about it for most of the night last night. She also specifically told Tong Wenbin that she would go to see him alone. At first, Tong Wenbin didn't agree and was worried that Tong Qiao would get into trouble.
But Tong Qiao repeatedly promised to have a good talk, and said that it is easier for young people to talk together, but it is difficult to talk to multiple elders.
Only then did Tong Wenbin agree. If he knew that Tong Qiao would act like this, he would definitely not agree.
Tong Qiao put away her mirror and powder puff, got out of the car, entered the restaurant in front of her, and was led by the waiter to the private room she had reserved in advance.
Tong Qiao knocked on the door politely.
"Come in." A deep magnetic voice came from the box.
The sound is quite nice.
With this thought, Tong Qiao opened the door of the box. Sitting at the dining table by the window was a man in combat uniform. He had sharp features and clear outlines, and this figure... why did he look familiar
Tong Qiao walked over and asked, "Lu Jinshen?"
Lu Jinshen nodded slightly, frowned slightly when he saw Tong Qiao's face, and said without much reaction, "Sit down."
Tong Qiao sat down opposite Lu Jinshen and kept her eyes on his face, "Have we met somewhere?"
Lu Jin stared at Tong Qiao deeply for a moment. The confusion in her eyes didn't look like she was faking. Did she forget what happened that night
Lu Jinshen felt a trace of disappointment in his heart, but then he thought that she might as well have forgotten. He was too strong that night. He still remembers the way she cried and cried out in pain under him. It shouldn't be a problem for her. A good memory, it's good to start everything from scratch.
Lu Jin frowned slightly, "Miss Tong, do you always use such an old-fashioned way to seduce men?"
Tong Qiao almost didn't mention it in one breath, "Am I hooking up with you?"
