Extra episode 2 'Threads Penetrate'——The truth revealed in his speech
Chapter 408
Hotel "Jona".
"I'm sorry, I forgot to bring my mobile phone with me yesterday. When I saw your phone call at night, I was afraid of disturbing your sleep, so I didn't go back."
At the dinner table, Qiao Si apologized to Li Chengyao.
Li Chengyao looked at Qiao Si with a faint smile on his face as always, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.
"Are you angry?"
Qiao Si opened her big innocent eyes and glanced at him secretly.
Li Chengyao shook his head, "Yesterday was your daddy's memorial day. I was afraid that you were in a bad mood, so I called to check on you."
She didn't know why, but he looked at her with gentle eyes, but she felt that he had already seen through her lying.
She looked at him with twinkling eyes, but she pretended to be firm.
"I won't do it next time... I don't like you not answering my phone." Li Chengyao lowered his head to stir the coffee at hand and said lightly.
Qiao Si muttered in a low voice, "Are you really angry with me?" She didn't know when she learned to discuss Li Chengyao.
Li Chengyao raised his eyes, looked at her, and smiled, "Why are I angry with you? I'm worried about you."
His words were always gentle and refreshing, making her feel like a warm current surged through her heart.
The feeling of guilt came to her heart unconsciously. Qiao Si bit her lip, lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry, I was not in a good mood yesterday, so I didn't answer your call."
"Miss dad?"
"Um."
Li Chengyao said, "I have a panacea... If you go shopping and buy a lot of clothes, you will definitely not miss your father."
Joss muttered, "Can't you come up with something new?"
"Why not? You use my card to swipe it and buy as many clothes as you want. In the end, you will be happy when you think that it is my money you spent."
Qiao Si laughed, feeling that his words always had a magical power and could make her very happy.
…
As a result, Qiao Si went shopping in the afternoon.
She wasn't used to being with Li Chengyao, so when Li Chengyao said that he had a meeting in the afternoon and didn't have time to go shopping with her, she was actually very happy in her heart.
There have been a lot of things to worry about in the past two years, and she doesn't have much time to buy clothes. The clothes she wears are all outdated in the past two years. Now it is really time to add some clothes to herself.
As the current head of the Qiao family, dresses and gowns are naturally indispensable, but the most important thing is a few sets of formal OL clothes.
Qiao Si decided to buy a dress first.
Even though she is already the head of the Qiao family and may take the route of a strong woman in the future, she still has the nature of a little girl at heart and loves to be beautiful.
Walking into the first women's clothing brand store, Qiao Si was immediately attracted by a small dress inside.
After putting it on, the clerk praised her. She stood in the mirror and looked at herself. She thought it was good. Then she wrapped this dress and asked the clerk to bring other dresses to try on.
She was a person who found troublesome, and she liked five or six items at once. Just as she was about to pay, the clerk laughed and said, "Ms. Qiao, your bill has been settled, and we will send your clothes to you."
In his house."
Qiao Si was stunned for a moment. When did she pay?
The clerk smiled even wider, "Mr. Li said that as long as it's what you like, Miss Qiao, Mr. Li will pay for it."
Only then did Qiao Si react, but she didn't know what to say and was a little at a loss holding the card.
The clerk said, "Mr. Li is so kind to Miss Qiao... Let Mr. Li go shopping with Miss Qiao next time!"
Why is she tied to Li Chengyao wherever she goes?
Returning the clerk's polite smile, Qiao Si turned around and walked out of the store.
Behind me, I could vaguely hear the discussion between the two shop assistants, "I'm so envious. It would be great if I had such a handsome and rich boyfriend..."
"Yes, I just heard from the store manager that Mr. Li's secretary has said hello to all the famous stores in the afternoon. As long as it is the clothes that Miss Qiao likes, Mr. Li will pay for them, as long as Miss Qiao is happy."
"Wow, I'm so jealous..."
…
After walking out of the women's clothing store, Qiao Si took out her mobile phone and called Li Chengyao.
After thinking for a long time and no one answered, Qiao Si thought Li Chengyao was in a meeting and was about to hang up when the call came through.
"It's me."
Li Chengyao laughed, "We just said goodbye in the morning, and now you call me? Why, do you miss me?"
"I miss you, you big-headed devil... I told you, I don't want you to pay for me. Although our family does have some financial problems, there is no problem in buying a few new clothes. Why do you have to pay for me?"
Money?”
"That's right. You know you were joking with me, so I seem to be in a much better mood..."
She smiled "chi", and it was undeniable that her mood was indeed much better.
"Okay, I'll give you the money to buy clothes next time." She didn't know why, but she just wanted to make things clear with him. She didn't want to owe him too much.
"Do you really want to settle this score with me?"
"Um."
"Then there are still many accounts to be settled between us... Well, let me think about it." He pretended to ponder, "We spent a lot of money on going to Tokyo, air tickets, accommodation, travel, and so on.
I’ll treat you to dinner someday…”
Qiao Si frowned, "Are you going to settle this with me too?"
"Didn't you say you wanted to count it?"
"Oh well!"
"I've roughly calculated it. You can't run away with more than 100,000 yuan..."
"A hundred thousand?" Qiao Si's eyes widened in shock. Oh my God, the family's funds have been in short supply recently. It seems really difficult for her to come up with a hundred thousand now...
Li Chengyao guessed Qiao Si's thoughts and said seriously, "I think considering the current situation of the Qiao family, these hundreds of thousands are probably not a small amount of money for you, Miss Qiao..."
Qiao Si lowered her head, looking embarrassed, and muttered, "Stingy."
Li Chengyao pretended not to hear Qiao Si's moaning voice, and just said, "I think Miss Qiao, you haven't been able to get married recently, so I'll find a way to leave only one..."
Qiao Si said angrily, "What?"
"Promise me with my body."
His voice was magnetic and bewitching, and Qiao Si's face immediately turned red. "I hate it, I won't tell you anymore..."
He laughed.
"I won't pay back the money..."
…

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
This week, Qiao Si and Li Chengyao signed a joint venture contract.
The dilemma faced by the Qiao family was finally solved... With Li Chengyao as his backing, all the problems the Qiao family had faced before were solved.
The bank loan has been approved, all wineries have resumed normal business, and everything is going well.
This week, Joss had no worries, and time passed very quickly, so when she came home and saw Qiao Che playing with Rachel, Joss was shocked.
On the sofa, Qiao Che and Rachel sat opposite each other, with a pile of newly purchased building blocks in front of them.
Qiao Che was dressed in home clothes and looked handsome and elegant. He could not be associated with a philistine businessman at all, let alone a person with an extremely deep mind and heart.
"Uncle, where is this piece placed?"
"Put it here... Look, the white edge should be aligned with the white edges of other building blocks, and then see what shapes are missing here, and then align..."
"Oh, uncle, I know..." Rachel happily placed the building blocks in the stuck position according to the method taught by Qiao Che. Sure enough, the building blocks were inlaid perfectly.
Rachel was very happy and clapped her chubby little hands, "Uncle is great..."
Qiao Che smiled.
Rachel said, "Uncle, I want to play again..."
"Okay, but remember to wash your hands after playing... toys are very dirty, you know?" Qiao Che warned softly.
"I know, mommy told me the same thing."
"Yeah, be good."
Qiao Che kissed Rachel's childish face and rubbed her little head.
Rachel reached out and was about to take all the bricks to her side when she noticed Qiao Si who had been standing at the door.
"Mommy!"
Rachel stood up from the sofa excitedly.
Qiao Si was stunned for a moment before walking over.
Rachel happily stretched out her arms to hug Qiao Si, "Mommy..."
Joss picked up Rachel on the sofa.
Qiao Che had stood up and was face to face with Qiao Si.
Qiao Si stared at him closely, as if she still didn't believe it, and after a while she said, "Brother, you are back..."
Qiao Che nodded lightly.
Rachel couldn't control her excitement and said to Qiao Si, "Mommy, look, uncle bought me a lot of toys... and uncle also taught me how to play. Uncle is great!"
There was a bit of surprise in Qiao Si's eyes.
Qiao Che said, "You didn't make an appointment with any friends tonight, did you?"
Qiao Si was dazed for a few seconds before coming back to her senses and said, "Yeah."
"Come eat with me at home!"
"good."
Without saying anything more, Qiao Che turned around and walked towards the second floor with his tall figure.
Qiao Si looked at Qiao Che's tall back in a daze, until Rachel's chubby little hand waved in front of Qiao Si's eyes, "Mommy, why are you looking at uncle in a daze?"
"No."
Rachel hugged Qiao Si's neck and asked innocently, "Mommy, uncle just hugged me and kissed me...Does uncle not hate Rachel anymore?"
"Little one, when did mommy tell you that uncle hates you?"
"But my uncle never talked to Rachel before..."
"That's because...because..."
Joss found that she couldn't answer Rachel because she couldn't tell Rachel the answer in her heart.
…
During dinner, Qiao Si helped her mother arrange the tableware in the dining room.
"Miss, I told you that there are so many servants at home, you don't need to do anything..." Pa's mother quickly took the plate from Qiao Si's hand and said.
Qiao Si took it over again and said seriously, "Mom, it's because you and Daddy were too aggressive with me before, that's why I can't do anything now... I said, I want to learn to gain a foothold in this society, so
, I have to learn everything now, I also have to do housework, and I have to set a good example for Rachel."
Mom smiled and said, "Okay, okay...just don't hurt yourself."
"I won't."
"By the way, miss...you and Qiao have finally settled their differences, right?"
Qiao Si nodded, "I was not very sensible before, so I would think about those things... But in fact, my brother and I are the closest people to each other in this world, and we should not become strangers."
Pa's mother blamed herself, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't encouraged Miss to tell Mr. Qiao..."
"Mom!" Qiao Si interrupted her mother, "Don't mention these things again. The past is over... From now on, he is just my brother and Rachel's uncle, and I won't think about it anymore.
"
Mom nodded, "I heard on TV that Mr. Qiao also has a girlfriend... some things have indeed passed."
Qiao Si smiled and said, "My brother may bring his girlfriend back for dinner this week... Mom, please prepare."
"What about you?"
"Me what?"
Pa's mother looked at Qiao Si with a smile, "Miss, don't think I don't know... I've seen people send you back several times."
"Don't make blind guesses, he is...is..." Well, she should call Li Chengyao her boyfriend, but she couldn't say these three words.
The pa mother said, "Miss, Mr. Li looks good, he is a gentleman, and he is good-looking. I read in the news that he is rich... When will you take Mr. Li home for a meal? I heard that Mr. Li doesn't come often.
It's not good for someone in Paris to stay in a hotel all day long, so why don't you let him stay at home?"
My mother didn't know that when she said this, Qiao Che happened to walk into the restaurant.
A lot of her mother's words reached Qiao Che's ears.
When she turned around and saw Qiao Che, her mother's face turned pale with fright.
