Extra episode 2 'Threads Penetrate' - throw yourself into the arms
Chapter 384
"Mom, I'll ask you to take care of Rachel for me while I'm not at home."
In the room, Qiao Si hugged Rachel who was kissing the teddy bear and said to her mother reluctantly.
Mom nodded, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Rachel."
"Rachel, come here, kiss mommy..."
Rachel obediently kissed Joss on the cheek.
Qiao Si was very satisfied, hugged her daughter tightly and said, "Rachel, mommy will be away for a few days... During this time, you have to listen to mommy, do you understand?"
Rachel seemed to understand the word "leave" that Joss said, and immediately dropped the teddy bear in her hand and hugged Joss tightly, "Mommy...I...go..."
Rachel was telling Joss that she wanted to go too.
Qiao Si shook her head and coaxed, "Mommy isn't going to play, so I can't take you there... Be good, Mommy will be back soon."
When Rachel heard this, her beautiful eyes immediately overflowed with tears...
Seeing Rachel's flat mouth and crying look, Qiao Si was also very reluctant to give up and kissed Rachel several times on the forehead.
Pa's mother reminded Qiao Si, "Miss, it's almost time, don't delay the plane... I will take good care of Rachel!"
Qiao Si nodded, hugged Rachel to her mother, and left the room with red eyes.
…
In the car heading to the airport, Joss looked completely lost.
Since giving birth to Rachel, she has almost never been separated from Rachel. Now that she suddenly has to separate from Rachel, she is really reluctant to part with her, but luckily she will only be away for a few days.
After suppressing her thoughts and thoughts, Qiao Si took out her mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers.
This number used to be the number she was most familiar with, but she doesn't know since when, she can no longer get through.
Because she had long expected that the call would not be able to get through, Qiao Si was not disappointed and dialed another number.
Tang Kai on the other end answered the phone quickly, "Miss Qiao Si." Tang Kai was as respectful as ever.
"Assistant Tang, can you tell me where my brother is now?"
"The boss is in New York."
New York?
Qiao Si was stunned, "He's not in city T?"
Tang Kai replied, "The boss is in New York dealing with some matters of 'qcs'."
Oops, the ticket she bought was for city T, and he is not in city T now, so what should she do?
"Then...will my brother have to deal with it in New York for a long time?"
Tang Kai said, "No, the boss will return to City T later."
"Really?" Qiao Si was suddenly excited.
Tang Kai was stunned for a moment, "Miss Qiao Si, are you looking for the boss?"
"Well, I'm on my way to the airport now and will fly to City T later."
"Okay, I'll tell the boss."
"No, Assistant Tang, don't tell me, I don't want him to know now."
"OK."
After ending the call, Qiao Si breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, she is going to see Qiao Che.
She had to settle the score with him for helping Robinson drive her to a dead end, and she had to ask for his help.
She couldn't make fun of the Qiao family's huge property, so whether she wanted to or not, she had to find him.
She didn't believe that he didn't miss his old love at all, and he would never watch her lose everything.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
More than ten hours later, City T.
Regarding Qiao Si's sudden arrival, like every time in the past, the servants in Qiao Che's villa regarded her as an uninvited guest, but they did not dare to treat her lightly.
"Miss Qiaosi, why are you here?"
Qiao Si glanced at the servant behind her, "Can't I come?"
The servant suddenly did not dare to speak anymore.
Qiao Si said, "You can put my luggage in the room on the second floor..."
"But miss, Mr. Qiao is not here right now."
Qiao Si sat down on the sofa in the hall and said coldly, "If my brother is not here, can't I wait here for him to come back?"
The servant hurriedly lowered his head, said "yes" and dragged Qiao Si's simple luggage up to the second floor.
After more than ten hours of flight time, Qiao Si leaned on the sofa tiredly.
She looked around boredly and noticed for the first time that the decoration of the villa was very elegant.
Every time she came here before, she had never noticed the decoration here. She couldn't help but curiously asked, "Did I design this place myself?"
The servant standing aside nodded, "It was designed by Mr. Qiao himself."
Qiao Si's eyes fell on the exquisite tassel crystal lamp in the hall, and asked, "Did I choose the lamp myself?"
"Yes."
"He has quite good taste." She also liked tassels, so she was attracted by this luxurious crystal lamp at a glance.
In the past, I always came and left in a hurry, and I never noticed how warm the decoration here was.
"Brother, do you often live here?" Qiao Si asked again.
The servant replied, "As long as you are not busy with hospital matters, Mr. Qiao will come back to stay."
"He didn't bring any friends back, did he?"
"Indeed, there are very few. In my impression, Mr. Qiao only took care of one person."
"Who?" Joss turned to look at the servant, "Male or female?"
"It's Miss Qu."
"Qu Ranran?"
"Yes." The servant answered truthfully, "One time, Mr. Qiao was very happy. It seemed that Mr. Qiao had won some award in the medical field. Mr. Qiao invited Miss Qu to come to the villa as a guest."
A trace of sadness flashed across her eyes, and Qiao Si said lightly, "Didn't brother invite anyone else that night?"
"No, there is only Miss Qu."
Joss lowered her head, "They...how did they celebrate that night?"
The servant replied, "Mr. Qiao seems to like Miss Qu very much. He drank red wine with Miss Qu, danced a bit, and talked a lot with Miss Qu."
"Did they dance?"
"Yeah...dancing right there, it's very beautiful."
Qiao Si looked at the position of the servant's finger. It turned out to be under the luxurious crystal lamp.
Spacious hall, elegant European classical decoration, melodious music, beautiful crystal lamps, handsome men and beautiful women...
Just imagining these in my mind is already a very beautiful picture.
As if something was blocking her heart, Qiao Si fell silent.
Seeing that Qiao Si didn't ask any more questions, the servant quietly left.
Qiao Si still had the image of Qiao Che and Qu Ranran dancing gracefully under the crystal lamp in her mind...
She could imagine that he must have been confessing his love to Qu Ranran at that time.
The outcome now seems to be that the confession was rejected, but at that time, he must have expected her to accept it.
She knew that the medical award - the Gairdner Foundation International Award, is the second largest medical award in the world after the Nobel Prize.
He has always wanted to get this award because he always hoped that he could make some achievements in the medical field, but he never thought that he would actually achieve it...
It's a pity that she didn't find out until later. She always wanted to say congratulations to him, but at that time he was still lying on the hospital bed in a coma.
It was such a happy thing that he won the award, but he didn't tell her and only shared it with his most beloved woman.
Qu Ranran is really lucky and happy. Not only does she have Guan Hao, the president of the "Haotian" Group, who is obsessed with thousands of girls, as her husband, but she also has Ji Lingtian and Qiao Che who have a crush on him. She is so charming.
People envy.
She had been jealous and envious before, but she knew very well that she was incomparable to Qu Ranran.
Whether it is Guan Hao or Qiao Che, they have both said that Qu Ranran's kindness and innocence are unmatched by anyone, and these qualities are not found in her who has been pampered since she was a child.
Therefore, she is destined to lose to Qu Ranran in this life.
With a sigh, Qiao Si stood up and walked to the second floor.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
night.
The car drove at a constant speed on the urban road.
Tang Kai took a peek at his master sitting in the back seat and asked in a low voice, "Boss, will I take you home?"
Qiao Che leaned on the back of his chair, closed his eyes and fell asleep, and said calmly, "I'm not going back. I have an operation at the hospital tomorrow, so I'll go to a nearby hotel."
"But I forgot to book a hotel for you when I got off the plane. I'm afraid some hotels are full..."
"Then go home!"
"OK."
Tang Kai smiled, stepped on the accelerator, and accelerated back to Qiao Che's villa on the outskirts of the city.
…
When Joss came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, she accidentally saw two car lights shining into the garden.
She then ran to the floor-to-ceiling window and saw a white car driving into the villa garden.
She vaguely saw the awe-inspiring figure in the back seat of the car, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.
After a while, she saw Tang Kai leaving the villa in his car.
Thinking that he was downstairs right now, Qiao Si couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Quickly changing into the silk pajamas she brought from France, she waited quietly in the room.
Deliberately turning off the light to avoid nervousness, she hid behind the door.
After a while, a man's steady footsteps came from the corridor.
She held her breath and pressed her body tightly against the wall.
Suddenly, the room creaked and he opened it from the outside.
He walked in without turning on the light. He seemed a little tired and was loosening the tie around his neck.
In the darkness, she looked at him quietly.
He is so tall, has a good figure, and his back looks so majestic.
When she was a child, she would be like now, often hiding in the dark and playing hide-and-seek with him, but at that time he would always find her easily...
Unknowingly, it turns out that what happened between him and her has become a memory of the past.
Perhaps because she was immersed in her thoughts and temporarily let her guard down, her body moved accidentally.
He was very vigilant and immediately heard a sound in the room. However, when he turned around to take a look, his body was suddenly hugged from back to front.
Qiao Si closed her eyes, hugged him tightly, and called softly, "Brother..."
Qiao Che was startled and recognized the faint fragrance of her body.
Her hands hugged him tightly. Every time she begged him to do something, she would beg him like this...
Qiao Che was silent for a few seconds, then pulled Qiao Si's hand away from her waist, "Why are you here?"
His voice was light, as if he wasn't too surprised by her arrival, and was even a little indifferent.
When he pulled her away, she stood quietly and didn't speak for a long time.
He didn't seem to mind that she was in the room. As before, he unbuttoned his shirt and walked into the bathroom.
However, the second before Qiao Che entered the bathroom, she suddenly ran in front of him and spread her arms to stop him.
In the darkness, Qiao Che's eyes became deeper and more dangerous than usual, and they were now falling on Qiao Si's panicked face.
Qiao Si raised her head and looked at him through her dim vision, "Please."
In the dim environment, Qiao Che's handsome face showed no expression, only slightly curling his lips, "What do you want from me?"
Qiao Si leaned into his arms and hugged him, "Please help me save the Qiao family's business."
Her body was shaking slightly, obviously a little uneasy.
Qiao Che was indifferent to her embrace and only looked down at her, "Have you figured it out?"
Qiao Si hurriedly looked up from his arms, "I won't make the choice you asked me to make, because I can never give up on Rachel..."
Qiao Che frowned, "So, you still haven't figured it out?"
Qiao Si held Qiao Che's arm tightly and looked at him with sad eyes, "Brother... tell me, why do you want to fight with me for Rachel's custody?"
Qiao Che's eyes were sharp, but his tone was gentle, "What do you think?"
Qiao Si stared at his handsome features that became more and more three-dimensional in the dark without even a moment, "Are you afraid that I will use Rachel to have a relationship with you in the future?"
Qiao Che said nothing.
Qiao Si choked up and said, "Brother, my pregnancy was an accident. I didn't even know I was pregnant when you pushed me away, so I never had any bad intentions...I decided to give birth to Rachel just because of this."
You almost sacrificed your life for the child and I can’t bear to hurt a young life. I really have no other intention..."
Qiao Che listened to her explanation quietly and never spoke.
Qiao Si sobbed and escaped, "Brother... I lost my father and my family. Even you will no longer care about me. I have nothing. I only have Rachel. I can't lose her... I'm with you."
I swear, as long as you help me keep the Qiao family's business, I will never appear in front of you with Rachel, and I will never let Rachel know about your relationship with her. You can treat it as if you never had this daughter...
"
The way she cried was so heartbreaking.
If it were before, he would definitely not let her shed so many tears. No matter how many requests he made, he would agree to her, but now, she is not sure...
With tears filling her eyes, she looked at him expectantly.
As if a century had passed, he put his hand on her trembling thin back and whispered softly, "Sisi, do you know?"
Qiao Si looked at him with wide, moist eyes, "Huh?"
His other hand gently stroked her delicate, tear-stained face, "I can't trust what you said."
"Why?" Qiao Si shouted hoarsely, "Does this make you distrust me?"
Qiao Che smiled lightly, "You have done so many despicable and shameless things to be with Guan Hao, but now you want me to trust that you are not a woman who can use despicable means?"
Qiao Che's words shook Qiao Si's body heavily.
She knew what he was referring to...
In order to be with Guan Hao, she even pretended to be pregnant to win Guan Hao's love...
He knew everything she did.
At this moment, Qiao Si only felt that her face hurt as if someone had slapped her ear hard.
Her voice was hoarse in her throat, and she bit her lip gently.
Qiao Che looked at her carefully, paying attention to every subtle expression on her face. His tone was still light and calm, "Why don't you speak?"
Qiao Si's eyes became dull and she no longer looked at his face.
Qiao Che gently wiped away the tears that were constantly overflowing from the corners of Qiao Si's eyes with his thumb, "Little girl, I remember I told you that tears can't solve any problems. Be good, stop crying... Go back and think about it slowly, and still
There is time."
Of course he knew that she was able to come here because she applied to the judge to postpone the hearing.
She has never been so humble in front of him...
With her previous personality, she would just push him away now and leave without looking back, waiting for him to chase her and tell her that he would do it for her...
But……
His current expression and his current words are no longer the "brother" who once loved her.
She knew that once she turned around, she might not even have the chance to beg him.
For Rachel and her father, she had no choice but to turn around and leave...
"Brother..." Qiao Si rushed into Qiao Che's arms again and hugged him tightly, "I beg you, don't embarrass me, help me, okay?"
For the first time, she abandoned her most important self-esteem in front of him and begged him in a low voice.
