Qiao man’s words hit Qiao Mingzhang’s Achilles’heel, the Achilles’heel of his reputation.

“You didn’t even look at any of the blind dates I set you up with, yet you came to me and told me that you wanted to chase a man. Qiao man, you’re a high-class socialite in forest city after all. Don’t act like a wild child that no one cares about all day. Where did your upbringing go? ”

She placed her brightly painted nails in front of her eyes and fiddled with them, slowly saying each word. “Why? Are you afraid that Qiao Mingzhang’s daughter won’t have a good upbringing in the future and that it will be difficult for the business alliance to Expand Your Business Scope? Are you angry and disappointed? ”

“I’m just very curious. Back then, when you solemnly knelt in front of mother and promised these things, did you have any sincerity at all? ”

“It’s adults’ business. Children should mind their own business. ”

When it came to the matters of the past, Qiao Mingzhang’s expression relaxed slightly. He Patted Xiao Min’s hand on his shoulder and said with a tone unique to businessmen, “let’s wait a little longer. When you get married, these… will be used as dowries. ”

The answer was within her expectations… …

She had come because she wanted to say this.

Since she had achieved her goal, there was no need for her to stay any longer.

As she walked out of the ward, Qiao Man’s gentle voice sounded again. She said, “Dad, do you know what time the sun rises and sets in the asylum? Do you know how every minute and second is spent there? ”

…

As she walked out of the hospital, the wind blew her long wavy hair into a beautiful arc. She walked on the rainy street against the wind.

This season was when the magnolia flower in forest city was in full bloom. The fragrance of the flowers filled the street and was charming.

The Magnolia Flower happened to be Qin Yulan’s favorite flower.

She had said more than once that she and Qiao Mingzhang had met under the Magnolia tree. At that time, the petals that were scattered on the clothes and hair of the handsome young man in white were like people from a dream.

With just one glance, she was destined for this life.

The sound of a car horn sounded behind her. She raised her head and forced back the tears in her eyes. Then, she got into the car.

Old Li knew that after Qiao man returned to China, she had been living in the Green Dragon Lake apartment by the third ring road. That was the birthday gift Qiao Mingzhang gave her when she was fifteen years old.

The bustling night scene outside the window kept retreating and gradually disappeared into a dot. She felt stuffy and lowered the car window, letting in the damp wind.

For some reason, the bustling scene gave birth to more cold memories for her.

She simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.

When she returned to the apartment, it was already two o’clock in the morning.

She took off the high heels on her feet and went straight upstairs to the bedroom to take a shower.

Ten minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel. The floor-to-ceiling window was not closed, and the beige window gauze was slightly fluttering in the night wind.

She walked over to close them, and then she fell straight into the bed.

Just as she was about to fall asleep, the phone next to her pillow vibrated.

She pressed the answer button, and the soft voice on the other side sounded particularly pleasant in the middle of the night. “Man man, let’s meet and talk? ”

This was the first time Xiao Meng had called her after she found out that Jiang Yingdong and Xiao Meng had slept together.

Qiao Man’s sleepiness was half gone, and the corner of her lips curled into a beautiful curve out of habit. “Talk about what? About you following Jiang Yingdong silently? or about your repentance? ”

“Man man, to be fair, I don’t owe you anything, and neither does Yingdong owe you anything! Don’t be a sore loser and mock me and him! ”

Perhaps, once covetousness became rampant, it would become an open and aboveboard plunder.

Qiao man still had her signature smile on her face, modest, calm, and indifferent. She said, “Xiao Meng, is it me who can’t afford to lose, or you who can’t afford to win? If I relent and forgive Jiang Yingdong now, do you think he will choose you or me? ”
