Qiao Qiao smiled bitterly. Her tone was not rushed at all. She calmly replied, “Touched your ass.”
Bai Chen reminded her, “Pay attention to your manners.”
Qiao Qiao said, “l have no manners. What should I pay attention to?” Bai Chen:
He could tell that she was very angry. “Could it be that Missy was bullied somewhere and specially called me to be her punching bag?” To Bai Chen, this was the only reason.
Qiao Qiao asked, “Can’t l?”
Bai Chen raised her eyebrows and laughed softly. “It’s not impossible. Anyway, you’re on the phone. Go ahead and vent. I’ll take it all.”
Qiao Qiao wasn’t that bored to vent her anger on someone she wasn’t very familiar with. As for her making this call, she naturally had her own plans.
It wasn’t appropriate outside.
The company wasn’t suitable either.
As for home…
Qiao Qiao cleared her throat. “Didn’t you want to come to my house for dinner?”
On the other end of the line, Bai Chen perked up. “Yes, of course I do. I really, really do.”
Qiao Qiao didn’t relent immediately. She asked first, “Why do you want to eat at my house?”
Bai Chen said, “Going to your house is equivalent to getting your approval. Can I understand it that way?”
Qiao Qiao asked, “Who said that?”
Bai Chen said, “Me.’
Qiao Qiao chuckled. The topic was just right. She relented. “Then come over.”
The line went quiet. As if to confirm that he had heard correctly, after about four or five seconds, Bai Chen’s not-very-convinced voice said, “Really?”
Qiao Qiao said, “Just you.”
Bai Chen said, “Of course.’
Qiao Qiao said, “I have to search you from head to toe, including your underwear. If that’s unacceptable, hang up now.”
Bai Chen:
After hanging up, Qiao Qiao put the phone back on the table. She glanced sideways at the bouquet of red roses and made up her mind. It was time to get off work. She swaggered out of the office with the bouquet of red roses. Jingcheng was in charge of picking her up. Seeing Qiao Qiao come out, he opened the car door immediately. “Miss.”
Qiao Qiao got into the car with the roses and closed the door. At the same time, in the other car, Shao Jingmo saw Qiao Qiao come out of the company with a bouquet of roses and get into Jingchengs car. She seemed in good shape, unaffected by the divorce.
That was good. At least he could rest easy.
At night,
Qiao Qiao was busy in the kitchen herself. Mother Qiao wanted to come in and help, but she was quickly chased out by Qiao Qiao. “I’m completely fine alone. Watch the television for a while. Let me know when the guests arrive. I’ll welcome them.’
When Mother Qiao was driven out by Qiao Qiao, she asked curiously, “Who exactly are the guests tonight?”
Qiao Qiao said, “You’ll know when he gets here.”
The more mysterious she was, the more curious Mother Qiao became. But she also knew that it was useless to be curious. Qiao Qiao definitely wouldn’t say anything if she wasn’t here.
After Mother Qiao went out, Qiao Qiao continued to work. When it was almost 6:40 p.m., Mother Qiao came in and reminded Qiao Qiao, “Hey, the guest you mentioned is probably here.”
“Okay, I’m on my way.” Qiao Qiao washed her hands and wiped them on her apron before turning to leave.
Seeing that she was going to welcome the guests like this, Mother Qiao reminded her, “Take off your apron.”
“No need. It’s not like he’s anyone particularly important. I don’t have to pay attention to my image.”
Qiao Qiao’s indifferent words made Mother Qiao speechless.
At the entrance.
There were bodyguards on both sides, and Bai Chen stood in the middle.
He was dressed formally in a suit and trousers, shiny black leather shoes, and his hair was waxed. He had changed into gold-rimmed glasses to look good. After dressing so solemnly, he did look much more serious than usual.
The only thing that was more out of place was that he was dressed so formally, but he was carrying a box of milk in one hand and a bag of fruits in the other. He looked like he was visiting relatives during the New Year.
Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but tease, “You’re so down to earth.”
Bai Chen looked at her. His expression did not match his festive appearance. She did not know what he had just experienced, but his face was extremely ugly. “I’m a commoner to begin with. It’s normal to be down to earth.”
Qiao Qiao smiled. “Have your underwear been checked?”
Bai Chen’s face darkened. “l thought you were joking.”
“l can’t help it. I have to think about the safety of my family, right? I’m just afraid that you’ll bring something that will pose a threat to our family. I’m just being safe. Who asked you to be a member of the Bai family?” As Qiao Qiao spoke, she went forward and reached out to take the milk from his hand. “Look at you. If you want to come, come. Why are you carrying so many things?”
Bai Chen said, “Milk is heavy.”
Qiao Qiao reached the other side. “Then I’ll carry the fruit.”
Bai Chen said, “Fruit is also heavy.”
Qiao Qiao retracted her hand and turned around. “Then carry it yourself.”
Bai Chen walked to her side and said faintly, “1 didn’t ask you to carry it.” Noticing that Qiao Qiao was wearing an apron, Bai Chen asked, “Are you going to cook for me tonight?”
Qiao Qiao glanced sideways at him. Instead of answering, she asked, “Do you know why I let you into my house today?”
Bai Chen smiled playfully. “Does Shao Jingmo know that you let me into your house tonight?”
Qiao Qiao said, “He doesn’t need to know.”
Bai Chen said, “Maybe he knows.”
Qiao Qiao stopped in her tracks and turned to him. “I’m sincerely entertaining you tonight, so I hope you’ll be more sincere tonight and answer my questions..”
