Chapter 484

In the taxi, there were still wet tears on Qiao Si's face, but her expression was calm.

She looked out the window and saw the prosperity of New York City gradually moving backwards.

Fortunately, the rain I had just fallen on had dried up and my dress was only slightly wrinkled.

Wiping away the remaining tears on her cheeks, she took out her small bag and touched up her makeup.

The foreign driver kept looking at Qiao Si. He always felt that Qiao Si was a famous person and was very familiar to her, but he couldn't name Qiao Si.

The car finally stopped in front of the hotel. When getting out of the car, perhaps because he saw Qiao Si's fragile appearance, the taxi driver kindly held up the umbrella for Qiao Si.

Qiao Si smiled at the taxi driver. The hotel waiter had already come over with an umbrella.

Following the hotel waiter came a swarm of reporters.

The taxi driver was stunned when he saw this scene.

The hotel waiter said respectfully, "Ms. Qiao, thank you for coming."

Qiao Si still smiled slightly, generous, elegant, and beautiful.

The reporters have been searching around Qiao Si, but they haven't found the handsome figure they expected. Some of the reporters began to ask, "Miss Qiao, isn't Mr. Qiao here?"

"We have received news that Mr. Qiao will accompany you, Miss Qiao, to attend this charity banquet tonight."

"Yes, Miss Qiao, why don't you see Mr. Qiao?"

Questions came one after another, making Qiaosi a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, the hotel's security was good, and they immediately blocked the reporter's attack and cleared a way for her.

The hotel waiter said respectfully, "Ms. Qiao, please."

"Thanks."

Escorted by the hotel's bodyguards, Qiao Si entered the hotel smoothly.

However, the reporters did not let go and followed her in the hotel lobby. The only question they asked was why Qiao Che did not show up.

Finally, Qiao Si stopped and let all the spotlights and flashlights focus on her body. She said with a charming and elegant attitude of a little woman, "Che was originally going to attend this charity banquet with me, but he

I can't come because I have something to do, but I have been told to contribute to charity on his behalf tonight...Thank you for your concern."

"Then when will Miss Qiao and Mr. Qiao get married?"

"Do you plan to have children after you get married?"

Upon hearing the reporter's question, Qiao Si just laughed and did not answer any more.

The hotel's security personnel escorted her into the elevator, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she finally got rid of the reporters.

The hotel waiter apologized, "I learned that we invited you and Mr. Qiao. These reporters have been squatting in front of the hotel for a long time. We have tried our best to prevent you and Mr. Qiao from causing trouble, but these reporters still don't give up... It's really

I’m disturbing you, Miss Qiao.”

Joss smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, these reporters only care about me and Che."

The elevator door opened at this moment, and the waiter led Qiao Si to the charity banquet.

Wearing a black floor-length gown, Qiao Si was noble and elegant, and with her beautiful face, she quickly became the focus of the audience.

Some unknown guests began to walk up to her and greet her.

Joss didn't know these people at all, and was confused as to why they were greeting her, until she heard someone among the guests discussing -

Don’t you know who she is? She is the girlfriend of Qiao Che, the president of “qcs”.

No wonder she looks so familiar...she doesn't look as beautiful as she does on TV.

Are you jealous...

hehe……

It turned out that these people who greeted her inexplicably were all here for Qiao Che.

The host who organized this charity banquet came over and said kindly, "Ms. Qiao, thank you very much for coming."

"It's an honor to be able to contribute to charity."

"There is a quiet place over there. If Miss Qiao is afraid of the excitement, you can sit there for a while and have something to eat."

"OK, thanks."

The host led Qiao Si to a corner of the banquet and sat down.

This was the quietest place for the banquet, and Joss noticed that several famous New York officials were sitting here.

Obviously, the master treated José very favorably.

This charity banquet was simply a donation for children in slums in Africa. When Joss heard that it was a donation for children, she agreed to attend the banquet without hesitation. Since it was just a donation, the banquet would not be too long.

But sitting here alone without socializing all night is indeed a bit boring.

Taking a glass of wine, Qiao Si took a sip.

It's obviously a cocktail, but it tastes bitter when you drink it.

Not wanting to take a second sip, Qiao Si put the wine glass down and looked around boredly. Only then did she notice that everyone attending the banquet tonight was in pairs.

Most of the guests came with their companions. Some of them were socializing among the guests with ease, and some of them sat together lovingly and biting their ears. She looked at these people, her vision gradually became blurry, and she couldn't help but flashing through her mind not long ago.

There was a scene of her and him sitting on the sofa lovingly watching TV.

Her nose was a little sore. Fortunately, the precautions she had taken over the past year had allowed her to conceal her emotions at the moment.

Suddenly, there was a small commotion among the guests.

Qiao Si came back to her senses and instinctively looked towards the door of the commotion banquet hall.

Li Chengyao's eyes passed through the crowd and met her impartially.

Yes, the person who came was actually Li Chengyao. No wonder it caused a commotion among the guests.

Their eyes met for a second. Li Chengyao apologized to the political and business celebrities who greeted her, then walked through the crowd and walked towards her.

Qiao Si stood up with a smile and her eyes fell on the female companion next to Li Chengyao. She was a young and beautiful girl in a light blue tube top dress, skin as white as snow, and a beautiful face.

"Sisi." Li Chengyao greeted Qiao Si generously.

Qiao Si responded generously, "Hi, Cheng Yao."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Li Chengyao looked at her with particularly deep eyes in the dim light.

"Yeah, I almost forgot, you are in New York."

"New York is such a big place, it's a coincidence that we met here."

"I didn't expect you to show up here." You know, for people with the status of Qiao Che and Li Chengyao, attending such a charity occasion is indeed a bit degrading.

Li Chengyao smiled and looked at the people around him, "This little girl said that this banquet was organized by her classmate's mother and she insisted that I accompany her to attend."

The little girl holding Li Chengyao on her arm coquettishly murmured, "Uncle, she is no longer a girl. Don't call me little girl in the future. I am your female companion today."

Li Chengyao smiled and shook his head, with a look of love for the little girl in his eyes.

Qiao Si looked at Li Chengyao in surprise, "Uncle?"

Li Chengyao nodded, "I almost forgot to introduce you to Li Xing'er, my eldest brother's daughter."

Qiao Si was a little embarrassed, "You have a big brother?" Realizing that something was wrong with her words, Qiao Si quickly added, "I mean, you have never mentioned to me that you have a big brother before, so I...

"

Li Chengyao took over with a smile, "Xing'er is the daughter that my eldest brother adopted in an orphanage many years ago. Unfortunately, my eldest brother passed away accidentally due to a car accident ten years ago... After that, Xing'er was taken care of by me. She has been studying in the UK.

I just recently graduated and returned to New York.”

"Oh...Hello, Xing'er."

"Hello, sister Sisi, you are so beautiful."

"Thanks."

"Uncle, my classmate is over there. I want to say hello to my classmate..."

"Go for it!"

After politely nodding to Qiao Si, Li Xing'er walked towards her classmates excitedly.

Li Xing'er's youthful appearance made Qiao Si slightly distracted and touched.

Li Chengyao noticed Qiao Si's expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Si shook her head and said with a faint smile, "When I see your niece, I think of when I was in my twenties... It was so good when I was young and I didn't have any worries."

Li Chengyao smiled softly, "In my opinion, you are just a little girl." Gentleman Li Chengyao pulled out a chair for Qiao Si and motioned for them to sit down and chat.
