Accompanied by the low and melodious music, Qiao Xinwei became sleepy. Jiang Hao saw that she was uncomfortable leaning against her, so he put his big hand around her and leaned her head directly on his shoulder.
Qiao Xinwei lay down on her body, found a comfortable position, and continued to sleep.
In a daze, she whispered in his ear: "Husband, don't lie to me, and don't betray me..."
Jiang Hao was like a student who had the idea of cheating in the exam and was being watched closely by the teacher. Fortunately, he stopped in time before the exam and threw away the cheat sheet. He patted her head and responded softly: "Well, I can't do it, don't worry.
.”
Qiao Xinwei opened her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth, "Yeah."
The concert ended successfully with a burst of warm applause. Bolan Group attached great importance to this concert and arranged a grand celebration reception after the end.
Yun Qing came over yawning. She took Chen Jingye's arm and said coquettishly, "Honey, I'm so sleepy. Let's go back first."
It seems that Qiao Xin is not the only one who doesn't understand this kind of elegant music. She pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Oh Yunqing, haven't you had enough sleep? Look at you, you haven't even wiped off the saliva marks on the corners of your mouth."
,Ha ha."
Yun Qing quickly stretched out his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth, "Do you dare to say that you didn't sleep? What's with the red mark on your forehead? I don't believe you heard it from beginning to end."
The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding clearly.
Xiao Tianai, who was behind, overheard the conversation between them. The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. What's more, this was her concert.
Xiao Nan bent down and complained softly, "Sister Tian Ai, they are too much. You kindly invited them here, but they don't appreciate it. They even make sarcastic remarks. They don't understand music at all. Don't waste your tickets in the future."
Xiao Tianai smiled calmly and said calmly: "Push me over... Ah Hao, how about it, won't it be boring?"
Jiang Hao coughed twice, took Qiao Xinwei's hand and squeezed her fingers hard, "No, the concert will be wonderful, congratulations."
At this time, a man walked towards him. He was holding a wine glass in one hand, and the other hand was already stretched out to congratulate him, "Miss Xiao, congratulations to you, it's so wonderful..." He saw Ruan Bin, Jiang Hao, and Ruan Bin who turned around and came over.
Qiao Xinwei, who was next to Jiang Hao, trembled, "Haha, it turns out that Chief Jiang is also Miss Xiao's distinguished guest. I'm glad to meet you."
Who is Jiang Haodang? It turns out to be Shen Dahai, Shen Lu's third uncle. He is one of the richest men in the city. He has two major group companies, Wanda and Bolan, under his name, and is worth hundreds of millions.
Jiang Hao's face darkened. It was Shen Dahai who was responsible for Qiao Xinwei being drugged in the first place. He had not yet settled the debt with him.
Ruan Bin also remembered this incident, and he was taken advantage of for no reason.
"Mr. Shen?!" Qiao Xinwei shouted quickly.
Shen Dahai smiled and nodded at her. He was embarrassed even if he said he was embarrassed. He didn't expect that the person Shen Lu, a little girl, wanted him to deal with at the beginning was now the chief's wife. This was not someone he could afford to offend. No matter how much a businessman is worth,
, I always have to curry favor with people who are officials. So he said: "Hey, the chief's wife is really young and beautiful. It's our first time to meet you. I, Shen, He Dehe, can let you know my nickname. It's really my honor."
"Uh..." Qiao Xinwei was stunned for a moment. These people spoke strangely. The last time he saw Shen Dahai was at the end of last year. It was impossible for him not to remember. Pretending to have amnesia was clearly because he had something in his heart.
At this time, Jiang Hao silently tugged her hand. She reacted, opened her mouth and said with a dry smile: "Haha, Mr. Shen gave me a thumbs up."
Shen Dahai added: "Chief Jiang, I came to Miss Xiao this time because I hope to use Miss Xiao's popularity to attract elegant celebrities from all walks of life in the capital, and then work together for charity. As you know, there are many rich people in the capital. , Charity needs the support of these people, and I hope that Governor Jiang can also support it."
Jiang Hao snorted coldly, "Yeah."
"Then Miss Xiao, you will entertain your friends well, and I will go over there."
"OK."
Shen Dahai quickly evacuated and went to the other side to chat with other wealthy businessmen.
Jiang Hao glared at him, then turned to look at Xiao Tianai, "Stay away from this Mr. Shen, he is not a good person."
Xiao Tianai asked in confusion: "What does this mean? Mr. Shen is my partner. To be exact, he is my big boss now. How can I stay away from him?"
Ruan Bin: "Tian Ai, I was tricked by this Mr. Shen. You must be careful when cooperating with him."
Xiao Tianai shrugged her shoulders needlessly, "I will only cooperate with him for three years. After three years, I have other plans." When she said this, her eyes glanced at Jiang Hao intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Hao said solemnly: "Mr. Shen said he started from scratch, but the source of his entrepreneurial funds has always been unknown..." There were too many people coming and going here, and it was not convenient for him to reveal many things. "In short, he can have It’s very suspicious today. It doesn’t matter if you cooperate with their company, but don’t get too close to him.”
Xiao Tianai nodded as if he understood, "Oh, I understand."
Faintly, Qiao Xinwei smelled a faint scent of perfume. When she smelled it carefully, it was closer to the scent of jasmine. Moreover, this scent was very similar to the scent of the bottle of perfume on the dressing table at home, which Jiang Hao gave to her. of.
She took a deep breath. There was no doubt that the perfume smell came from Xiao Tianai.
She remembered that that night, Jiang Hao said something when he was confused and infatuated - "Why don't you use the perfume I gave you?"
Ho ho ho, that's it, it turned out that that night, Jiang Hao thought she was his ex-girlfriend and fell in love with her. Thinking of this, Qiao Xinwei felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she suddenly took away the hand that Jiang Hao was holding tightly.
Jiang Hao didn't know why, so he turned around and glared at her, warning her with his eyes: Don't make trouble in public places!
He held her hand again, and she felt like there was a fish bone stuck in her throat. She couldn't spit it out or swallow it. She was stung every time she swallowed.

When the cocktail party ended, it was already eleven o'clock in the night. Jiang Hao was driving, and Qiao Xinwei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, dozed off, her chin almost touching her chest.
"Ah!" Suddenly, she rushed forward and her head hit the front of the car. "It hurts..."
Jiang Hao shook his head, turned the steering wheel and parked the car on the side of the road, "What's wrong? What's wrong?" He turned her head over and took a closer look, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, can't you be more careful? What's wrong with getting hurt all day long? , if you’re so sleepy, you might as well go to sleep in the back seat.”
"In hindsight, what's the use of saying it now?" Qiao Xinwei poked the sore spot with her finger, "Is it swollen?"
"No, my neck is not fully healed yet, and my forehead is injured again." Jiang Hao opened the car door, "Wait a minute, I'm going to buy something."
"Oh..." Qiao Xinwei looked at Jiang Hao's back as he ran towards the convenience store. She said silently, "Jiang Hao, just because I don't say it doesn't mean I don't know. I just don't want to argue or argue. You must not You hurt me just because I love you."
After a while, Jiang Hao came back quickly and bought ice cubes and towels. He wrapped the ice cubes in the towel and put them directly on her forehead. This was the simplest and most useful method he learned in the military camp.
.
He hugged her head without saying a word, just pressed the towel, and combed her hair with his hands from time to time, being considerate and considerate.
Suddenly a text message came on his phone. He took it out and saw that it was a message from Xiao Tianai. He opened it in front of Qiao Xinwei and said, "Ah Hao, thank you for the clothes you sent me. I will keep them well."
Qiao Xinwei raised her head and asked, "What clothes? The one she wore today?"
"Well... you lie down and apply it for a while before it will take effect."
Qiao Xinwei pursed her lips and said to herself: "I don't see you giving me clothes, huh."
Jiang Hao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I belong to you. What you want is not a matter of words. I've given you the secondary card. You can buy whatever you want."
She tilted her head and looked out the car window, "Tch, not sincere."
"Hey, sister-in-law, please don't be jealous." Jiang Hao pinched her cheeks and rubbed them into circles, "By the way, I will go to the hospital for a follow-up visit tomorrow, so don't go to work."
"No, my neck is almost healed. How can I not go to work on my first day tomorrow? You don't want me to resign. I won't agree to it."
Jiang Hao was slightly annoyed, "Tsk, why are you so disobedient?! How much money can you make in a month? Even with your little salary, it's not even enough to pay the property fees."
"Then I also want to make money. I don't want to be a loser at home, and I don't want to be derailed by society. The economic foundation determines the family status. Although I can't compare to you, I can't be too low."
Jiang Hao rolled his eyes for a while, "Hey, I asked you why you are making more and more sense recently. Why don't you talk about the male leading the outside and the female leading the internal?"
"That's the old society, can you please stop being old-fashioned?"
"Am I old-fashioned?" Jiang Hao said angrily and asked repeatedly, "Am I old-fashioned? You call me old-fashioned?!"
Qiao Xinwei sighed deeply, why can't this man face reality? Alas, she said sarcastically: "No matter how much you brag and stare, it won't change the fact that you are nine years older than me."
"..." This is a fact that Jiang Hao cannot refute.

Early in the morning, Jiang Hao got up early and went for a run, while Qiao Xinwei slowly cleaned herself up.
In the bathroom, she brushed her teeth and looked at herself in the mirror. She had lost weight after a new year. She asked herself if she was satisfied with her current life, but she couldn't answer. She asked herself if she regretted marrying Jiang Hao, and she couldn't answer either.
.
Life is exciting because of the unknown. In the new year, she just hopes that Jiang Hao's ex-girlfriend won't make any trouble, otherwise she will definitely not let it go. In the Jing family, it is not her home after all, for her mother
She can tolerate anything, but it's different now. This is her and Jiang Hao's home, her own home. She must protect this home. If anyone wants to cause damage, she will be the first to let her go.
There was the sound of the door opening outside, and she knew it was Jiang Hao coming back from a run, so she stuck her head out and said, "Honey, are you on your way to work? Can I give you a ride?"
"Your unit is in the opposite direction from my army. No matter how you walk, it's not going smoothly. I said, I didn't buy you a car to occupy a parking space. Why don't you drive it?"
The four-turn white car has never come out since it was parked in the garage. Jiang Hao gave it to Qiao Xinwei as part of the wedding gift, but now, it is parked quietly in the garage.
seat.
Qiao Xinwei rolled her eyes and said quietly: "Because I can't drive."
"..." Jiang Hao's face darkened again, "I shouldn't have told you earlier."
"Obviously you bought the car first, and you didn't ask me if I knew how to drive it. So, you still don't understand me."
