However, when he lowered his brows, a hint of heartache and displeasure flashed across his eyes.
Even though he didn't say a word about Qiao Anxia's situation, when he brought her home, he took the opportunity while she was in the shower to send her a text.
He didn't like Qiao Anxia and had even hated her for a period of time. However, if she liked him, he was willing to protect her. Just like how she had unintentionally flipped through his inheritance and found out that Xu Jiamu was someone he cared about, she had tried her best to help him fulfill their brotherly bond.
In a week's time, it would be their wedding. Even though she didn't say anything, he could tell that she really hoped that Qiao Anxia could be her bridesmaid. She happily and sincerely wished for her to get married.
As long as she wanted it, he would work hard to fight for it.
When Qiao Anxia stepped out of the elevator, she realized that she had left in a hurry. She had left her wallet and car keys in the room.
Qiao Anxia stood at the elevator door for a while, but in the end, she didn't go upstairs to retrieve them. Instead, she pulled out her phone to send her secretary a text, reminding her to bring her things back to the company tomorrow.
The night was a little chilly. Her coat was upstairs, and Qiao Anxia was only wearing a thin dress, shivering from the cold.
Because she had no money, she used her phone app to call for a private car. While waiting, she saw Chen Yang's car turn out of the underground parking lot.
Qiao Anxia's expression froze, her gaze glued to Chen Yang's car.
As the car got closer and closer to her, an inexplicable sense of nervousness arose in her heart. Through the car window, she met Chen Yang's eyes. His gaze was deep, and for the first time in her life, she couldn't understand what he was thinking. Just as the car was about to reach her, Qiao Anxia suddenly felt a sense of anticipation. She hoped that Chen Yang would stop the car, but in the end, the man acted as though she didn't exist. The car didn't slow down in the slightest as it sped past her, leaving behind a strong gust of wind.
Qiao Anxia instinctively turned her head to look at the back of the car that had sped off into the distance. In that instant, she felt as though her heart had been hollowed out as the car sped off into the distance.
Qiao Anxia stood rooted to the spot until the car stopped in front of her. Only then did she snap back to her senses. After getting in the car and telling him the location, she started to daydream again.
The apartment was pitch black. Qiao Anxia turned on the lights and saw that Chen Yang's things were everywhere. She felt even sadder. She hadn't done much that day, but she felt as though she had experienced many years. Her body was exceptionally tired, and she collapsed onto the sofa. She stared at the ceiling for a while, and then she heard the reminder of a text message in her ear.
After a while, Qiao Anxia shifted her gaze and glanced at her phone screen. She saw the words "my love".
My love... Qiao Anxia froze for a moment, then realized that it was Lu Jinnian... She had saved the name, but why did it make her feel so uncomfortable?
Qiao Anxia picked up her phone, but didn't look at the contents of his message. Instead, she went to her contact list and changed "my love" to "Lu Jinnian". After a while, she thought about it, then changed it to "Brother-in-law".
