He said that he would take her back to see her grandfather for the last time...
When she heard this, Qiao Qiao felt as if she was stupid. She let Qiao Jingmo hold her hand and walk out, take the elevator downstairs, get in the car, go to the airport, and then get on the plane.
The flight time of five to six hours is long enough for Qiao Qiao to think about many, many things.
It was already after two in the afternoon when we got off the plane and came out of the airport. The car arranged by the Qiao family was already waiting outside the airport.
The driver and bodyguard all recognized her, and when they saw her, they would respectfully call her, "Miss."
Qiao Qiao answered silently. She was so worried that she almost bumped into the car door. Qiao Jingmo pulled her back, and her back bumped into his arms. She was still in a daze and didn't react for a long time.
Until Qiao Jingmo's voice came from above her head, reminding her: "Be careful."
Only then did Qiao Qiao come to her senses and found herself leaning against Qiao Jingmo's arms.
She broke free of his shackles with her wrists, leaned into the car, and slowly moved to the other side in front of him. She didn't think much about the little accident just now. Her mind was filled with the fact that her grandfather had been ill for a long time.
Not long ago, Qiao Jingmo told her when she got on the plane that her grandfather had actually been ill for a long time. Recently, his health was getting worse and worse, and he was afraid that he would not be able to see Qiao Qiao for the last time, so he let her go.
Qiao Jingmo came to the capital to find Qiao Qiao and took her back.
During the video connection that day, Qiao Qiao clearly saw that the old man on the screen was still in good health, so how could he suddenly wait for her to go back and see him for the last time?
This stinky old man!
The last meeting was definitely a way to trick her into going back.
Definitely yes!
Her mother said last time that if the old man had his fortune told, he could live to be a hundred years old, but this was still far from it...
The atmosphere inside the car became very depressing for a while.
Qiao Jingmo looked at her sideways: "Don't worry too much, there's still a thirteen-minute drive."
Qiao Qiao suddenly turned her head: "Shao Jingmo!"
This sound was very loud, it looked like a shout, but it was actually a roar! The driver driving in front and the bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat were both startled, and then they couldn't help but look in the rearview mirror.
Qiao Qiao's face was tense and her eyes were staring at Qiao Jingmo coldly.
Qiao Jingmo looked calm: "Just tell me."
Qiao Qiao immediately moved over and grabbed Qiao Jingmo's collar with both hands: "You'd better lie to me to come back. If you lied to me this time, I... can forgive you."
Qiao Jingmo: "I will never lie to you."
Qiao Qiao's eyes turned red, and she tightened her hands on Qiao Jingmo's collar: "You must have lied to me to come back! It must be!!"
Qiao Jingmo lowered his eyes and looked at the small hands holding his collar. They were obviously such small hands, but they used such strong force to hold his collar tightly and force him to lower his head.
He raised his hand and opened her hand bit by bit: "The eldest daughter of the Qiao family should look like the eldest daughter of the Qiao family."
Qiao Qiao was disappointed, her hands slowly dropped to her side.
All the arrogance he had just now was gone, and it was as if all the strength in his body had been drained away in an instant.
At the end of the ten-minute drive, the towering iron gate slowly opened in front of us, and a neatly trimmed green expanse appeared in front of us. Through the garden, a villa with retro architecture of the last century appeared in front of us. Just one glance made people feel sacred and solemn.
In the cold winter, the golden plum blossoms in the garden are in full bloom.
The car window was lowered, and the rich aroma passed through the tip of her nose. Qiao Qiao looked out the car window and said, "That's the plum forest planted by grandpa himself. Every tree is."
Qiao Jingmo glanced sideways: "The golden plum blossoms are blooming very well this year."
Qiao Qiao suddenly turned her head: "Does this have a moral meaning?"
Qiao Jingmo raised his eyebrows: "For example?"
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips: "It means grandpa's health will get better and better."
Qiao Jingmo's thin lips parted: "I hope."
Qiao Qiao fell silent immediately.
The car stopped outside the villa. Qiao Qiao couldn't wait to get out of the car, found the direction and rushed in. It's not thirty years since she hasn't been back for three years. She has a deep memory of this home, and she can't go wrong if she just walks around.
Qiao's mother Jiang Lin came out immediately to greet her daughter who had only returned home three years ago: "彽彽."
Qiao Qiao threw herself into Mother Qiao's arms: "Mom, I miss you so much."
The most straightforward confession also contains the longing for Qiao Qiao that cannot be expressed in words over the past three years.
Jiang Lin carefully observed Qiao Qiao's changes, and finally concluded: "Three years have passed, and our relationship has become more beautiful."
Normally, Qiao Qiao would have been happy after hearing this.
But now, Qiao Qiao quickly asked: "Mom, where is grandpa?"
Jiang Lin sighed: "Let's go and see grandpa."
Mr. Qiao has been living in seclusion for more than a year due to illness, and during this time, almost everything in the Deep Blue Group has been in the hands of Qiao Jingmo. Although he is not in charge in the true sense, that step is just around the corner.
Qiao Qiao asked as she walked: "What's wrong with grandpa's health?"
Jiang Lin sighed: "Go see grandpa first, and I'll tell you later."
Finally, Qiao Qiao, accompanied by Jiang Lin, entered Mr. Qiao's room.
Qiao Qiao slowly approached the bed and looked at the old man who was sleeping soundly on the bed. Recalling the video connection she had with the old man in the capital a few days ago, she clearly looked at the energetic old man, but he had aged a lot in the blink of an eye.
Has the old man been forcing himself to show her?
Thinking of this, the tip of Qiao Qiao's nose felt sore and she sobbed. This sound accidentally woke up Mr. Qiao, who was sleeping soundly.
Mr. Qiao opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling with his turbid eyes for a few seconds before slowly turning his head. The moment he saw Qiao Qiao, he smiled: "I'm dreaming again, this time it's about our family.
Come back and see me."
Qiao Qiao's suppressed emotions suddenly collapsed because of these words.
She walked to the bed and squatted down: "This is no longer a dream, Qiao Yueyong is standing in front of you alive."
Mr. Qiao suddenly opened his eyes wide and stretched out his hand: "Yuyong is back?"
Qiao Qiao held Mr. Qiao's hand and said, "Your most naughty guy is back."
Mr. Qiao's turbid eyes were filled with tears: "Yongyu, grandpa finally waited for you to come back."
Qiao Qiao said: "I'm sorry, grandpa."
Mr. Qiao held Qiao Qiao's hand tightly: "Help me up, grandpa wants to take a good look at you."
Qiao Qiao quickly followed the instructions, but she was not strong enough, so Jiang Lin stepped forward to help.
The two of them helped Mr. Qiao sit up. Mr. Qiao motioned to Jiang Lin to call Boss Qiao. It seemed that he wanted to explain the funeral arrangements in advance.
Jiang Lin nodded with red eyes and went to call someone.
Qiao Qiao bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from crying. Mr. Qiao touched Qiao Qiao's face kindly: "It's still the same as when I was a child. Every time I wanted to cry, I bit my mouth. I bit my lip several times.
The skin was broken and the mouth was full of blood."
Qiao Qiao opened her mouth and said, "Then I won't bite you."
Mr. Qiao said: "This is so good."
Qiao Qiao held back her tears: "What's wrong with your body?"
Mr. Qiao avoided talking about his physical condition, but mentioned: "Grandpa has chosen a grandson-in-law. Grandpa is very satisfied and wants to see you get married, so that grandpa can leave with peace of mind."
Qiao Qiao thought, it's time now, don't refute what the old man said, she nodded: "Okay, you have the final say."
Mr. Qiao was very happy: "Then, you and Jingmo should go get your marriage certificate as soon as possible."
Qiao Qiao:?
Mr. Qiao said slowly: "Only Jingmo is the most suitable for you."
Qiao Qiao immediately said: "Then you have no say in this matter."
Mr. Qiao looked sad: "You just said you let me have the final say."
