In order to ensure that she could accompany Fang Lan to go shopping and buy clothes on Saturday, Qin Miaoyan was extremely busy in the next two days and worked overtime every day. Finally, on Friday night, she finalized all the details of the cooperation with Banxia Investment Group and drew up the investment agreement, which will be held next Monday.
Signed.
It was almost midnight when Qin Miaoyan got home on Friday night, but she still applied a facial mask before going to bed, and then slept until she woke up naturally. It was already ten o'clock when she woke up.
"Oops, I overslept!"
Qin Miaoyan jumped up, ordered a takeout using the takeout software, and arranged for it to be delivered to her door at the appointed time. Then she took off her nightgown and entered the bathroom naked.
Brush your teeth, take a shower, blow dry your hair, put on makeup...
By the time Qin Miaoyan finished all this, it was almost twelve o'clock and the takeaway had arrived.
She casually dealt with it for a few times, then walked to the cloakroom, looked at the dazzling array of clothes in the closet, and fell into a dilemma - which set of clothes should I wear?
In the end, she tied her hair into a ponytail and chose a white dress with a hemline that reached her knees, revealing her fair, straight calves. She paired it with a pair of flat sandals, just like the girl next door.
At one o'clock, Qin Miaoyan drove to the famous Yintai business district in Jiangzhou and met Fang Lan, Chen Ye, mother and son at the agreed place.
"Aunt Fang."
Qin Miaoyan took the initiative to greet him and said hello with a smile.
Fang Lan smiled and said, "Miaoyan is so beautiful today."
Facing Fang Lan's praise, Qin Miaoyan looked a little shy, then took the initiative to hold Fang Lan's arm and said to Chen Ye:
"Chen Ye, I'm quite familiar with this place and know a lot about the clothing of major brands. Can I lead the way?"
"Of course, that's what I asked you to do." Chen Ye said with a smile.
Hearing this, Fang Lan said angrily: "Xiaoye, what are you talking about?"
"It's okay, Aunt Fang, I'm used to it. You don't even know that this guy is very slippery now."
Qin Miaoyan gave Chen Ye a cleansing eye, then turned to Fang Lan with a bright smile, took Fang Lan's arm and walked into the mall.
As an absolute expert in the clothing industry, Qin Miaoyan knows all major clothing brands well and knows the preferences of all age groups.
The several clothes she selected for Fang Lan were of different styles, but they all seemed to be tailor-made for Fang Lan and were very suitable.
Of course, this also has something to do with Fang Lan himself.
Although Fang Lan has been tortured by life in the past twenty-two years in order to raise Chen Ye and maintain the family, and time has left deep traces on her body, she has maintained a good figure.
He is considered the best among people.
In addition, she was a beauty when she was young. Even now that she is old, she still retains her charm after dressing up a little.
What's more important is the temperament.
Born in the Fang family, a wealthy family in the East China Sea, she has been influenced by the environment since she was a child and has outstanding temperament. Even though she has been teased by fate these years, she has not been overwhelmed by life, but has become more dignified and dignified.
Four outfits, four pairs of shoes, and two silk scarves.
This was the result of Qin Miaoyan taking Fang Lan to the mall. Fang Lan kept saying too much, but Chen Ye and Qin Miaoyan seemed not to hear them and asked the salesperson to pack them up in unison.
Qin Miaoyan would always take advantage of Chen Ye's time to get clothes to check out in advance.
Because she remembered that Chen Ye had swiped Fang Lan's card the last time he had a meal, and thought that Chen Ye definitely had no money.
However--
In fact, Chen Ye now carries a bank card with a deposit of two million. He saw Qin Miaoyan paying the bill, but deliberately pretended not to see it.
He felt that it was a very happy thing for Qin Miaoyan to buy clothes for her mother Fang Lan.
The last time, when Qin Miaoyan was paying the bill, Fang Lan also saw it, and her expression changed immediately and she said:
"Miaoyan, what are you doing? How can I ask you to pay the bill?"
"Auntie, it's okay."
"No, Miaoyan. I feel so sorry for asking you to come out and go shopping with me. I can't let you pay the bill!"
Fang Lan shook his head, then looked back at his 'silly' son with a naive smile on his face, and said:
"Xiaoye, what are you doing standing still? Come over and pay the bill!"
"Auntie, I didn't prepare a gift for you on your birthday, just treat it as a birthday gift I bought for you. In addition, my clothing company has become regular. From now on, I will pack your clothes every year, specially for you.
Customized for you, guaranteed to be unique.”
Qin Miaoyan said with a smile, and then took advantage of Fang Lan's unpreparedness to scan the QR code and pay quickly.
Chen Ye saw this and said with a smile: "Mom, this is Miaoyan's filial piety, so don't shirk it!"
"Filial piety?!"
Fang Lan was stunned.
"Yes, Aunt Fang, this is my heart."
Qin Miaoyan blushed instantly and quickly explained, cursing in her heart: Why is this guy talking more and more out of tune?!
Fang Lan was a little surprised when she saw the performance of the two people.
Because she had been there, she could naturally tell that something was wrong between Qin Miaoyan and Chen Ye!
She couldn't figure out how her 'silly' son managed to deal with Qin Miaoyan, so she quickly said:
"Miaoyan, thank you, aunt."
"You're welcome, Aunt Fang."
Qin Miaoyan calmed down her emotions, then glared at Chen Ye angrily,
"Why are you still standing there? Come here and carry your handbag."
"I'm coming."
Chen Ye walked over with a smile and took the handbag containing clothes from the salesperson.
Qin Miaoyan looked at Chen Ye's hands full of big and small bags, as if her revenge was successful, she raised her head proudly, and then continued to hold Fang Lan's arm and leave.
Chen Ye followed the two of them like a coolie, smiling like a fool.
This scene has appeared in Chen Ye's mind in the parallel world more than once, but he never realized it in that world.
However, in this world, this scene appeared and made his dream come true, not to mention how happy he was!
Soon, the three of them came to a high-end gift shop.
This was Fang Lan's suggestion. She wanted to buy a birthday gift for Qin Shoujiu, but she didn't tell Qin Miaoyan. She just reminded Chen Ye that Qin Miaoyan must not pay the bill this time.
"Miaoyan, this year is your grandfather's 70th birthday. Do you want me to buy him a gift box of Cordyceps sinensis and Laoshan ginseng? Is that okay?"
After careful selection, Fang Lan chose two gift boxes, and carefully observed and identified the Cordyceps sinensis and Laoshan ginseng in the gift boxes. After confirming that the quality was good, she asked Qin Miaoyan for her opinion with some worry.
Aunt Fang is choosing a birthday gift for grandpa?
When Fang Lan's words rang in her ears, Qin Miaoyan's face couldn't help but change!
She thought of what her father Qin Boli said two days ago - Qin Shoujiu would never allow Fang Lan, Chen Ye and his mother to appear at his birthday banquet!
Just when Qin Miaoyan looked complicated and didn't know how to respond to Fang Lan, a young couple came over.
Qin Hongwei, the eldest son of the Qin family, and his wife Li Xiu!
"Aunt Fang, let's go look elsewhere."
When Qin Miaoyan saw the two of them, her expression changed again, and she took Fang Lan in her arms and was about to leave.
Because she was worried that Qin Hongwei would tell the truth in front of Fang Lan and Chen Ye, mother and son!
As the saying goes, what are you afraid of, come what may?
"Miaoyan, are you buying gifts with them?"
Qin Hongwei and his wife Li Xiu approached quickly and asked in a deep voice.
He accompanied his wife Li Xiulai to buy a birthday gift for Qin Shoujiu. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Qin Miaoyan holding a woman's arm, and then he saw Chen Ye. Before he could get closer, he heard Fang Lan's words and understood instantly.
What.
Fang Lan paused, his expression changed, and he said:
"May I ask you are?"
"I am Qin Miaoyan's cousin and Qin Shoujiu's eldest grandson."
Qin Hongwei first introduced himself casually, and then said with a joking smile:
"You don't have to worry about choosing a gift for my grandpa, he won't accept it..."
"Qin Hongwei, shut up!"
Qin Miaoyan was so anxious that she quickly spoke to stop him.
Qin Hongwei sneered:
"Miaoyan, grandpa has made it clear that the two of them will never be allowed to appear at his birthday banquet. Are you still accompanying them to buy birthday gifts for grandpa?
Is it possible that you want to take them to the birthday banquet at the Excelle Hotel? Let me tell you, if you do this, you will make grandpa angry and make other guests laugh! "
"Miao...Miaoyan, what's going on?"
Fang Lan's expression changed again and she looked at Qin Miaoyan blankly.
However--
This time, before Qin Miaoyan could speak, Qin Hongwei’s wife Li Xiu said plausibly:
"Miaoyan, my sister-in-law told you that you are too confused to let the young master of the Qiao family not marry and insist on getting entangled with a reform-through-labor prisoner!
Listen to my sister-in-law’s advice, don’t be carried away by the so-called love, it is all fake. Only by marrying a powerful, powerful and wealthy husband will you be happy for the rest of your life!
Think about it, Qiao’s daughter-in-law, how beautiful it would be to go out..."
"That's enough! Shut up!"
Qin Miaoyan looked ugly. She first spoke to stop Qin Hongwei and Li Xiu and his wife, and then looked at Fang Lan anxiously. When she saw Fang Lan's blank expression, she didn't know how to explain it for a moment.
At this moment, Chen Ye came over and said:
"Mom, since they don't let us go, we won't buy any gifts."
"Xiaoye, we give gifts out of our intentions and etiquette. Whether your Grandpa Qin accepts them or not, that's his business."
Fang Lan was silent for a few seconds and sighed softly.
Hearing this, Qin Hongwei sneered: "Don't open your mouth, Grandpa Qin. My grandpa won't even look at him. It's him who relies on Miao Yan!"
"Auntie, that's not the case!"
This time, Qin Miaoyan couldn't help it anymore. She quickly explained, fearing that Fang Lan might misunderstand the second half of Qin Hongwei's sentence.
Chen Ye stared at Qin Hongwei with squinted eyes and said, "Qin Hongwei, do you have a short memory, or are you itchy again?!"
"you……"
Qin Hongwei subconsciously wanted to shout a rebuttal, but thinking of the fear of being dominated by Chen Ye that day, he suppressed the words that came to his lips.
When Chen Ye saw this, he did not teach Qin Hongwei a lesson. Instead, he said to his mother Fang Lan again:
"Mom, listen to me, don't buy it, let's go!"
"All right."
Fang Lan looked lonely and left with Chen Ye.
Qin Miaoyan still held Fang Lan's arm, but the smile on Fang Lan's face had disappeared, and her chest seemed to be blocked by something.
Qin Miaoyan noticed this, but she didn't know what to say.
Although she can now decide her own life and marriage, she cannot change the Qin family's view of Chen Ye, nor can she change the decision made by Qin Shoujiu!
Seeing this, Fang Lan adjusted her mood and said with a forced smile:
"Miaoyan, Auntie knows that you are a kind and good girl. Auntie is also very grateful for everything you have done for Xiaoye and that you do not dislike Xiaoye at all."
"Auntie, I think Chen Ye is pretty good, but my grandfather and the others..."
Qin Miaoyan tried to say something, but halfway through her words, her eye circles turned slightly red, feeling aggrieved and helpless, and then she couldn't help but look at Chen Ye,
"sorry!"
"Miaoyan, don't blame yourself, this has nothing to do with you."
Chen Ye met Qin Miaoyan's aggrieved gaze, spoke softly, and at the same time decided to let the elders of the Qin family know something.
"Yes, Miaoyan, it's okay."
As soon as Chen Ye finished speaking, Fang Lan grabbed Qin Miaoyan's hand, patted it with a smile, and then said:
"Miaoyan, thank you for today. Auntie is a little tired. Xiaoye and I will take a taxi back, and you can go back and have a good rest."
"Xiaoye, go ahead and hail a taxi."
At the end, Fang Lan said to Chen Ye again.
"Um."
Chen Ye nodded, then walked to the front to stop the car.
As a result, before he could stop the taxi, the mobile phone in his pocket rang. He took it out and found that it was Qiao Donglai. He put down his bag and answered the call. Qiao Donglai's voice came from the receiver.
:
"Master, are you free tomorrow?"
"It's my mom's birthday tomorrow and I don't have time. What's wrong?" Chen Ye said.
When Qiao Donglai heard this, he was startled for a moment, then thought about it and said:
"Master, it's like this. Mr. Huang has been discharged from the hospital. He is very grateful for everything you have done for him and wants to treat you to dinner tomorrow. My grandfather, I, and Zhu Yeqing will go with you.
I don’t know if your mother’s birthday is tomorrow. How about you bring Auntie with you and we can celebrate Auntie’s birthday? What do you think?”
"Okay, the place to eat will be at the Excelle Hotel. Also, call your cousin Qiao Beifeng."
Chen Ye thought for a while and said.
"Okay, Master!"
Qiao Donglai responded immediately, but felt a little confused in his heart.
Why did I choose to stay at the Excelle Hotel?
Still want to shout to Bei Feng?
"Senior Qin family, since you are so shameless, don't blame me for being rude!"
Chen Ye put away his cell phone and turned around to see Qin Miaoyan, whose eyes were red with grievance. Her mother Fang Lan was comforting her, and her heart was filled with unknown anger!
