Qiao family.

When Qiao Rui arrived, the guard at the door saw her stunned for a moment, stopped her, and asked in surprise: "Do you have an appointment, please?"

Qiao Rui frowned slightly, no wonder the doorman couldn't recognize her. With her face, she didn't wear glasses. Not only that, she even changed her clothes.

Qiao Rui said: "I am Qiao Rui."

The guard saw the fashionably dressed girl in front of him, with beautiful features and a strong aura.

Her beautiful face glowed with youthful brilliance, as vibrant as a flower.

There is no way she can compare with the rotten sixth lady of the Qiao family.

How could this be a person?

The guard was stunned, "You, how could you be Miss Six?"

Qiao Rui asked calmly: "How could I not be?"

The guard immediately came to his senses and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Six, I didn't mean it like that. I heard it, and the voice was yours."

"The old man is looking for me." Qiao Rui said, "Can I go in?"

The guard nodded immediately. "Miss Six, please."

Qiao Rui was able to enter Qiao's house.

When the housekeeper saw her, he was as surprised as the doorman. "Who are you?"

"I'm Qiao Rui." Qiao Rui said the same thing. "Uncle housekeeper, where is the old man?"

"Ah, Miss Sixth?" The housekeeper was also surprised. "Why do you seem to be a different person?"

Qiao Rui said calmly: "I was forced to have no choice."

housekeeper:"......."

Qiao Rui walked in directly.

The butler said from behind: "The old man is waiting for you in the house. Miss Six is ​​so beautiful. The old man will be very happy when he sees her."

"I hope so." Qiao Rui's tone was calm, and she didn't have much expectations for the Qiao family.

The housekeeper could tell that Qiao Rui was criticizing the old man in her words and was not easy to talk to. He could only laugh twice and help explain: "Actually, the old man has high expectations for the sixth lady."

"You have higher expectations for the Pei family, right?" Qiao Rui didn't save any face for the old man.

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment and was too embarrassed to say anything.

Qiao Rui entered the room and found the old man sitting on the sofa. When he looked up, he saw her stunned for a moment.

The butler saw the old man's hesitation and immediately smiled and said: "Old man, look who this is?"

Mr. Qiao squinted his eyes and looked at the door, suddenly stunned.

I saw the girl's long black hair hanging down, part of it tied with a blue ribbon, and the rest hanging down. One eye was as dark as the endless dark night, with long and dense eyelashes like a small fan. Her skin was fair, and her facial features were delicate and vague.

There are traces of that woman in between.

He stood up suddenly, tightened his eyes, looked at Qiao Rui, and said coldly: "Are you Qiao Rui?"

Qiao Rui nodded. "Yes, Grandpa."

The old man was so shocked that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Qiao Rui didn't expect the old man's expression to be so exaggerated, but he didn't seem happy.

Mr. Qiao saw the shadow of her mother in Qiao Rui's eyes, the woman who took away his most proud son.

The woman who harmed his son all his life.

His expression was very complicated, and the shock in his eyes turned into anger in an instant.

"Old man?" The housekeeper noticed the old man's strangeness and reminded him aloud.

Mr. Qiao suddenly came to his senses. She looked at Qiao Rui, calmed down her emotions, sat down again, and said indifferently: "Come and sit!"

Qiao Rui walked over, sat down on the sofa opposite the old man, and said, "Grandpa, you asked me to come and talk about my brother. I want to know the whereabouts of my brother."

"There is no whereabouts." The old man's voice was so cold and hard that it made people feel uncomfortable.

Qiao Rui frowned: "You asked me to come and said you wanted to tell me."

"Dead!" Mr. Qiao suddenly said in a deep voice.

Qiao Rui couldn't hold it back and said angrily: "Impossible!"

Mr. Qiao didn't speak a word. His whole person seemed to have changed, and there was deep sadness all over his body.

Qiao Rui was stunned for a moment and was suddenly touched. She looked at the old man's expression and was a little puzzled.

After a moment of silence, the old man said: "I have been looking for your brother for many years, but there is indeed no news. He must be gone."

"No, this is impossible!" Qiao Rui said the same thing, and she couldn't accept it either emotionally or rationally.

"Do you think I am willing?" Mr. Qiao shouted angrily: "He is the only male in my Qiao family, my only grandson!"

The old man's roar successfully stopped Qiao Rui's words.

She was stunned for a moment, looking at the sadness in the old man's eyes, she couldn't ignore it, that sadness was serious.

Maybe he really felt sorry for his brother, after all, he was the only boy in the Qiao family.

However, he said that his brother was dead, and Qiao Rui couldn't accept it, nor was she willing to accept it.

"You want to see people when you are alive, and you want to see corpses when you die." Qiao Rui said word by word.

Mr. Qiao was stunned for a moment, raised his head in panic, and met Qiao Rui's firm and deep eyes.

So determined, so unwilling, so much like her mother!

Ah!

Thinking of that woman, the grief in Mr. Qiao's eyes turned into anger and annoyance.

It was all because of that woman that he lost his son and his grandson.

Without that woman, his best son would marry a well-matched girl and live a happy life.

"If you want to investigate, then investigate carefully." Mr. Qiao said coldly: "I also hope you can find your brother, but all this is just a wishful dream!"

Looking at the old man now, Qiao Rui should have some expectations for his brother, and his grief is real.

Qiao Rui said, "Give me a clue and I'll check it out."

"If there are clues, I won't be able to find the person." The old man sneered coldly: "Whether you believe it or not, I am more eager to find your brother than you are."

Qiao Rui was stunned and responded: "Since grandpa and I have the same goal, and there are no clues, there must be photos, right?"

Mr. Qiao raised his eyes and stared at Qiao Rui, and sneered: "Didn't you dig through my room?"

Qiao Rui froze.

The old man said coldly: "You searched my room just after you came back, don't think I don't know."

Qiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then said after a long while: "Grandpa must have just remembered and discovered it, right?"

Mr. Qiao narrowed his eyes.

Qiao Rui also met his gaze, "Mr. Pei told you that I looked for my brother's photos, and then you combined this and remembered that I went to your room to look for it. Yes, I did look for it before, but found nothing.

.”

The old man looked at her coldly, "You think you can find some clues in the Pei family. You would rather marry Pei Liyan to find clues about your brother than ask me directly if there are any photos or clues about your brother."

Qiao Rui stared at the old man without saying a word.

"You don't believe me!" Mr. Qiao's voice sounded much older.

Qiao Rui pursed her lips, smiled bitterly, and asked, "Should I believe grandpa?"

"So what? Did you find it?" Mr. Qiao snorted coldly: "Do you think you will make me feel uncomfortable if you really marry Pei Liyan and mess up my plan?"
