"Sorry." In the car, he said, "I just scared you." He took back his suit and put it aside casually: "I'll take you back first."
"Yes." Qiao Raoruo lowered her head and nodded, not wanting him to see her blushing face.
It was quiet along the way. After driving for more than half an hour, the car finally arrived at the Qiao family's villa area. But at this time, Qiao Raoruo said: "Mr. Qin..."
"Huh?" He parked the car and turned to look at her.
She lowered her head and said, "I heard the conversation between you and my dad in the office this morning..."
He didn't speak.
"I'm sorry that my dad would put such excessive conditions on you. I don't know. If I knew, I would definitely stop it..."
"I know." Qin Mujie smiled and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you."
She looked at him: "This time, do you really need my dad's help?"
He thought for a while: "Maybe I can think of other ways."
Qiao Raoruo said: "I can see that Daddy is very unhappy today. He has doted on me since he was a child, so he said those excessive words to you. Don't worry about it."
"Um."
Qiao Raoru paused for half a second: "I'm not stupid. I know Mr. Qin wants to tell me today that you are just a broken vending machine to me. You don't want me to spend any more time and throw coins into you randomly."
.But——." She asked hesitantly: "Mr. Qin, is this vending machine really never repairable?"
This metaphor...only she would use it so seriously.
He held back his laughter: "I don't know in the future, but at least for now, I just treat you as a simple little sister."
Simple little sister...
She lowered her head, and the small light of expectation in her eyes slowly dissipated. Hey, she knew...
"In this case, then I will give up your vending machine, save the coins, and look for the next one." Suddenly she paused again: "But Mr. Qin, I have an idea. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"
"Oh?" He sat up straight and asked calmly.
Rao Rao said: "Anyway, what my dad means today is that as long as you are with me, he is willing to invest in cooperation. How about——." She covered her mouth and whispered: "How about we secretly, in Daddy's place
Pretend to be in love in front of you. Once daddy injects money, I will come forward and break up with you. By then, my daddy will have nothing to do."
"This..." He was surprised: "This is not good."
"What's the good thing?" Qiao Raorao muttered: "My dad has a lot of money anyway, so it's okay to use a little to help you. Let me tell you secretly, he is actually very interested in Di Sheng's development project and has wanted to cooperate for a long time.
No, I just keep embarrassing you because of me."
"……."
"And if you said that to him this morning, it would be hard for him to step down and talk about the contract. As long as the two of us pretend to be in love, I can help you. You will have funds for development, and daddy will have another child.
A good partner... simply benefits everyone, how great!"
Qin Mujie thought about it and felt that her idea sounded good. But he still couldn't make up his mind. Wouldn't this be too unfair to her?
As if she had guessed what he was thinking, Rao Rao patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I have already decided not to waste coins on you! I want to wait for what really belongs to me, the vending machine!"
At this moment, a person appeared outside the car door and knocked on the car window. It was Butler Xu. Rao Rao rolled down the window and Butler Xu said: "The master saw that the lady is back and asked me to call you in."
"Oh..." Rao Rao agreed, then turned around and said, "Then I'll go in first."
"Go in." He paused and said, "I will consider what you just thought."
Rao Rao walked out and waved to him with a smile: "I'm waiting for your news, vending machine."
********* ********
Yuanchen Villa.
Xia Tong held the drawing board and jumped into the house with a smile on her face, looking very happy.
At this time, Gu Haoran was sitting on the sofa, looked her over and asked, "What are you so happy about?"
Xia Tong put down the drawing board, walked to sit next to him, broke open an orange, and put a petal into his mouth flatteringly. Then he said: "This Sunday is the fifth anniversary reception of 'Aimo' magazine.
I heard that there will be a lot of media coming that day and it will be very lively. An Dayang just called me and told me to go that day."
Xia Tong said longingly: "I heard it will be held at the Sophia Hotel, the largest hotel in City A. It will definitely be very lively. I have never attended such a cocktail party. I am really looking forward to it..."
When Gu Haoran heard this, he took off his glasses, put his hands around her and said, "I don't want you to go."
"Why?" Xia Tong was immediately discouraged.
Why...he couldn't answer. He admitted that he was selfish. He didn't want her to be exposed to too many people. He just wanted her to belong to him alone. Once her past identity was exposed, he really didn't know what to do.
Keep it hidden.
"Gu Haoran, I think you are so strange..." Xia Tong pinched his nose: "You don't let me use my real name to publish design drafts in magazines; you don't let me go out with you to meet your friends; you don't even let me go out with you to meet your friends;
I am not allowed to participate in such activities..." She thought for a moment, with a look of horror on her face: "You are not already married and have a wife, right? And I am just your mistress?"
He shook his head, helpless: "Is there such a relaxed and happy mistress as you? Not only do you not have to do anything, but you also have to let me take care of you? The key is..." He murmured in a low voice: "I haven't seen you dedicate yourself.
ah……."
"Ah? What?" Xia Tong didn't hear.
He patted her head: "Don't worry, I'm not married."
"Oh..." She breathed a sigh of relief and asked unwillingly, "What about the reception?"
"I'm tired..." He closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.
"Hey, hey..." Xia Tong depressedly grabbed his face, peeled off his eyelids, and pushed the peak of his nose. He was as steady as a mountain and could not move.
She was discouraged and wanted to retract her hand, but he grabbed her hand again. He opened his eyes and said narrowly: "Make me a cup of coffee."
"I don't want it," she said angrily.
"Be good!" He touched her head.
Well, she couldn't stand his doting and disgusting look, as if he wanted to eat someone. She stood up and muttered: "Wait a minute."
"Yeah." He smiled and nodded. As soon as she walked away, the smile on his face quickly faded. He reached out and took out a newspaper. The headline of the newspaper was a huge photo.
The protagonist in the photo is Qin Muzhen, who is holding a girl in his arms at the moment. The girl's face cannot be seen clearly, but she is petite and her dress looks very young.
It seems that Qin Mushi has not only changed a lot in his personality over the past year, but also has a very different perspective on women. He put away the newspaper, but this result is not bad.
