Gao Mingzhe's first reaction was to push her away.
He did have the idea of using her, but he never really wanted to have anything with her.
Luo Qiaoqiao hugged her tightly, tears streaming down her face. Her summer clothes were thin, and her tears fell on Gao Mingzhe's chest, feeling hot.
For a woman who stayed alone in an empty house for more than ten years even after getting married in order to wait for him, it would be a lie to say that Gao Mingzhe was not shocked.
After a while, Gao Mingzhe gently placed his hand on her shoulder, "I'm sorry, I didn't forget you on purpose."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter."
"In my eyes, you are my boss and you have shown me kindness." Gao Mingzhe put his hands on her shoulders and slowly pushed her away, "I'm sorry, I don't remember you."
The smile on Luo Qiaoqiao's face froze, and her complexion instantly turned pale.
I don't remember you!
What she was most afraid of hearing was this sentence.
Luo Qiaoqiao was in disbelief, "But I haven't forgotten! You can't do this to me!"
Gao Mingzhe's eyes instantly turned cold.
He has a very proud temperament, and he is naturally moved by Luo Qiaoqiao's many years of admiration and waiting. But he also can't listen to women telling him what to do, especially what you can't do, and what you must do...
If Chu Yunli were here, he would know why Gao Mingzhe couldn't let go of Nianqiao alone, because of the three women he met, Luo Zhiniang had a proud temperament and married him because he was devoted to her, that is,
He said that after Gao Mingzhe married her, he could no longer associate with other women. Although Luo Qiaoqiao was gentle in front of him, she had a bad temper and was still aloof at heart.
There is only one person, Fang Nianqiao, who is as gentle as water and regards him as heaven.
"I don't remember anything that happened before last year. I don't know if these things happened." Gao Mingzhe pushed her away and took a step back, "Boss, now that we are doing business together, it's better not to involve too many emotions.
.”
Luo Qiaoqiao became anxious immediately. She didn't expect that the person who had been touched just now would suddenly become so cold and even colder than before.
"Min'er looks a lot like you. You'll know it when you look at it." Luo Qiaoqiao hurriedly explained, "If there is nothing between us, can I talk about these things? You believe me!"
Gao Mingzhe shook his head, "I have a wife and children, I can't let them go."
Luo Qiaoqiao didn't doubt this at all. In the past ten years, he had been devoted to Luo Zhiniang, and he had already avoided her several times before she even came close.
Luo Qiaoqiao was anxious. She had already wasted more than ten years, and this year she was already in her twenties. There are not many more than ten years in a person's life. If he didn't believe it, maybe there would be no possibility between them...
Originally, when a man and a woman fall in love again, how many men can remain unchanged after the woman becomes old and loses her lust?
In anxiety and panic, Luo Qiaoqiao suddenly thought that she had a trump card, her eyes lit up and she said, "Do you really think that Fang Nianqiao saved you?"
Gao Mingzhe frowned slightly.
Luo Qiaoqiao said quickly, "I was the first one to find you. I couldn't bear to put you back, so I found a girl to take care of you. Who knew she had her thoughts in mind, but within a few days, she begged you without telling me?
Tang. That’s not all, she also acquiesced in her identity as the savior, and shamelessly took advantage of the gratitude of everyone in the Gao family. The person who saved you is me, it’s me!”
"I always pay attention to your whereabouts. After learning that you fell off the cliff, I immediately took people to look for you at the bottom of the cliff. After searching for you for two days, I was covered with injuries. When I saw that you were not dead, you
Do you know how happy I am?"
She spoke faster and faster, and because she was in a hurry to explain, she was a little incoherent.
Gao Mingzhe frowned more tightly, "Girl?"
"Yes, girl!" Seeing that he was interested in Fang Nianqiao's identity, Luo Qiaoqiao said immediately, "Her real name is Yan'er, and she is a poor woman. I originally planned to buy her back for Chen Tu, but something happened to you just two days after I brought her back.
,So I……"
Gao Mingzhe was a little angry, "Qing Guan?"
Luo Qiaoqiao nodded, "Yes. With their status, they learn how to please men. You don't know whether what she says to you is true or false. You think she is gentle and mean to you, but in fact they don't really mean it.
, it’s the same for any man! By the way, I still gave her the name, and it’s Qiao Nianqiao. When you send her away, I hope you will think of me!”
Gao Mingzhe then took a step back, leaned on the counter, and closed his eyes.
Originally there were two clerks in this shop, but because business was not good, Gao Mingzhe asked them to work every other day, so they only had to pay half a month's wages. It happened that the clerk who was on duty today had something to do at home, so he took half a day off.
It was also because so few people came that the two of them could talk for so long.
There was a moment of silence.
Luo Qiaoqiao was a little uneasy and asked tentatively, "Mingzhe, are you okay?"
Gao Mingzhe rubbed his eyebrows for a long time. After opening his eyes, he sighed, "I'm sorry for you. I didn't forget you on purpose."
Luo Qiaoqiao's attitude suddenly softened, and she breathed a sigh of relief, "It doesn't matter, I just remember it."
Seeing him slumped, she added, "How about you go back and rest earlier today?"
"Okay!" Gao Mingzhe was very talkative and found a handkerchief and handed it over, "Please wipe your eyes."
Luo Qiaoqiao burst into laughter and took the handkerchief to wipe her tears, "I'm really afraid that you will ignore me."
Gao Mingzhe said softly, "We are doing business together, how could I ignore you? I still want to make money for you."
His tone was gentle, as if what happened just now had never happened.
In Luo Qiaoqiao's opinion, Gao Mingzhe must have hated Fang Nianqiao and transferred his life-saving favor to her.
The two closed the door together and returned to Gao's house together.
Arriving at the gate, Luo Qiaoqiao paused, "Then I'm back?"
Gao Mingzhe nodded with a smile, "Okay!"
Luo Qiaoqiao turned back to the tea shop. Although her back was turned, she could feel the eyes of the person behind her. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised. When she reached the door of the tea shop, she turned around and saw that the person was still there, looking at her with a smile.
Immediately, a sweet smile bloomed in Luo Qiaoqiao's eyes.
As soon as Gao Mingzhe entered the door, Fang Nianqiao greeted him with a smile.
Although the Gao family is different now, they still value their grandson Gao Mu, and all the children in the family have nannies. Therefore, Fang Nianqiao only takes care of the children to hold them when they like, and leaves them to the nanny most of the time, so it is not too tiring.
Her voice was as gentle as ever, "I came back a little early today, and the meal will be ready soon. Eat first and then wash up, okay?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief. However, when he saw his chest, he paused and reached out to touch it, "What's wrong?"
Gao Mingzhe lowered his head. Today he was wearing a long gown made of blue fine cloth from the shop. At this time, his chest was dirty, like a faint water stain after it has dried.
These were the tears Luo Qiaoqiao shed just now.
"When it touches water, it dries out and that's it."
Fang Nianqiao breathed a sigh of relief, "It would be a joke if people see you dressed like this. Why don't you come back and change?"
Gao Mingzhe stepped into his house and said, "Isn't this back?"
Fang Nianqiao was startled.
There was something wrong with his tone and attitude, he was a lot unfamiliar. Moreover, he seemed to be angry.
A bad premonition suddenly occurred in her heart, and Xiaobu chased after her, "What happened to you today? Did something happen?"
Gao Mingzhe leaned on the bed, resting his arms on his pillow, and asked casually, "Are you really a herb collector?"
Fang Nianqiao's face changed slightly at the light words, "Why did you suddenly think of asking this? Did someone say something to you?"
Gao Mingzhe looked at her and said, "If there is no problem with your identity, why should you be afraid of people's words?"
Fang Nianqiao lowered her head and shed tears.
Gao Mingzhe looked at her and did not come to coax her as usual.
As Fang Nianqiao cried, her heart sank deeper and deeper, "You know everything? Did Miss Luo say it? What did she say about me?"
Gao Mingzhe knew that what Luo Qiaoqiao said should be true, but he still wanted to have some expectations for the person next to him. When he heard her mention Luo Qiaoqiao, the last trace of luck in his heart disappeared.
"What do you think she would say about you?"
Fang Nianqiao was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Are you saying that I have a bad background?"
Gao Mingzhe asked, "So are you from a good background?"
Fang Nianqiao was silent.
Gao Mingzhe was in a very depressed mood.
I originally thought that the background of the medicine collector was already very poor, but I didn't expect that her real background was even worse. There was no status worse than a lowly status. In the past year or so, he had held such a woman in the palm of his hand, even doing more for her.
After disobeying his mother and abandoning such an excellent wife and children, the entire Gao family moved to this secluded courtyard... Whenever he thought of this, Gao Mingzhe was filled with annoyance that turned into anger.
Just when he was about to get angry, Fang Nianqiao said, "I have been through a rough life and I have never been able to help myself." She sat in front of the window and cried, "Miss Wu bought me back because she couldn't stand Chen Tu and Hong'er.
We are in love with each other and want me to win Chen Tu's heart. I had already accepted my fate, but I didn't expect that she would ask me to serve you later. She also said that I must return to Gaofu with you, as long as I can keep the third girl.
, I succeeded."
Gao Mingzhe: "..."
That's not what Luo Qiaoqiao said.
He recalled his situation at that time. If he was found, he would definitely go back to Gaofu. And if Luo Zhiniang didn't get along, Fang Nianqiao would really be able to stay and support her!
Over there, Fang Nianqiao continued, "After meeting you, I am truly grateful to Miss Fifth. I didn't expect that she asked me to take care of such an outstanding man."
In the past year or so, Gao Mingzhe has been praised a lot by her. Everything Fang Nianqiao said seemed to hit his heart and scratch his itch. In the past, he thought it was because the two of them had a good connection.
But today Luo Qiaoqiao said that a woman from that background is best at pleasing men, and what she said was intentional.
