What if he fell?
Qiao Qiao didn't even know how she got back to the villa.
He Shaochen's mother's sudden appearance today caught her off guard.
It also made her understand one thing clearly. There was a huge gap between her and He Shaochen. The chances of them being together in the end were almost zero.
She tiredly laid on the sofa, her gaze sweeping across the spacious villa. Originally, she might not have set foot in such a place for the rest of her life, but now, because of He Shaochen, she was living in such a big villa.
This place left her with many memories.
There were good ones.
There were also bad ones.
Qiao Qiao suddenly felt a little tired, not physically, but mentally.
When would her improper relationship with He Shaochen end?
But there will always be an end, right?
Perhaps.
The Scientific Research Meeting was a turning point.
If he could be recognized at the scientific research conference, he would have the opportunity to study abroad. At that time, would he be able to say goodbye to He Shaochen?
Qiao Qiao was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice that He Shaochen had returned.
"Why are you lying here? If you're tired, just lie on the bed for a while. I'll call you when it's time to eat. " He Shaochen got off work early today. He walked to Qiao Qiao's side, squatted down, and smoothed out the hair stuck to her cheek.
Qiao Qiao's amber eyes lit up. She looked at He Shaochen's handsome face and thought of Qiu Yixin's disdainful face during the day.
Qiao Qiao propped herself up and asked, "Why are you back so early?"
He Shaochen wasn't too happy to hear that. He glared fiercely at Qiao Qiao.
"Can't I come back earlier?"
What did she mean by that? Didn't she want him to come back earlier?
Did this damned woman know how to speak?
Qiao Qiao was confused by his glare. She smiled and said, "No, I'm just asking."
He Shaochen snorted coldly. He was obviously dissatisfied with this answer. "Just asking? Why do I feel like you don't want me to come back earlier? "
This young master's temper was acting up again.
She was being unreasonable.
Qiao Qiao sighed inwardly. She pursed her lips and said, "You can think whatever you want."
She wasn't in the mood to argue with him, but her perfunctory tone fiercely provoked He Shaochen's sensitive nerves.
He Shaochen stretched two fingers and pinched Qiao Qiao's delicate chin, forcing her to look him in the eye's eyes.
"Qiao Qiao, can't you talk things over with me? What is this? "He Shaochen said angrily.
Qiaoqiao was taken aback, her eyes filled with obvious astonishment.
"Why are your eyes so wide open? Do you think I don't know what's bothering you? "He Shaochen had sensed that something was amiss with Qiao Qiao the moment he entered the room.
"You're thinking too much," Qiao Qiao said impassively as she pried He Shaochen's hand away.
Qiao Qiao didn't want to recall what had happened with his mother that day. It wasn't a pleasant memory.
"I'm thinking too much. Who do you think I am? Do you think I don't know that you're in a bad mood? "
"Who are you?" Qiao Qiao Qiao suddenly smiled and said in a fit of pique, "Oh, aren't you the eldest son of the oldest and most prestigious Family He in Country A? He Conglomerate's current leader, the Eldest Young Master He who controls the country's economic lifeline? "
He Shaochen's face immediately darkened.
Had this woman been provoked today?
In fact, He Shaochen was right. Qiao Qiao was indeed provoked.
Qiao Qiao Qiao's every word was engraved in her heart. It made her deeply understand the difference between families. It also made her understand that no matter how hard an ordinary person worked, they would never be able to compete with those sons of wealthy families who were born with a bright future.
There were a lot of things that couldn't be achieved just by hard work.
This kind of bloodline theory strongly stimulated her worldview.
It made her feel very irritated.
He Shaochen pulled Qiao Qiao's face. The pain made Qiao Qiao focus on He Shaochen again. She angrily slapped away He Shaochen's hand. "I told you, I hate it when people pull my face!"
"Humph, I like it," He Shaochen said arrogantly.
Qiao Qiao was angry, but she couldn't do any real harm to the other party. This mother and son pair were sure they had her in their hands, right?
But she couldn't do anything. Qiao Qiao was angry and wronged. She could only turn her face away with red eyes. She was too lazy to deal with this person.
He Shaochen stubbornly continued to pull her face and said word by word, "Qiao Qiao, you still don't understand one thing."
"What?"
Qiao Qiao asked angrily with red eyes.
"Aside from my identity, I am also your man. If you are bullied, I have the ability to help you fight back. So you don't need to be angry here alone."
He Shaochen's attitude was unprecedentedly serious. His words were sincere and there was no falsehood at all.
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and suddenly had the urge to cry.
Her voice trembled slightly as she looked straight at the other party. "He Shaochen, can you not lie to a child like this?"
"Are you a child?"
"I'm not!"
"Then isn't that right? You're not a child. How could you not know if I'm telling the truth?"
Qiao Qiao's eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't hold them back for a moment and the tears fell.
She was stunned and quickly lowered her head. She used her hands to wipe her tears. Her voice choked and she paused. "Don't. Can you spoil me like this?"
Qiao Qiao suddenly realized that what she was most afraid of now was not He Shaochen's mother's protest or the gap between rich and powerful families, but He Shaochen's gentleness.
He was domineering in every way, but he was always thinking of her.
Her heart wasn't made of iron. Of course, she would be moved.
What would happen after she was moved?
What if she fell for him?
She knew that it was a fruitless love, but she still wanted to throw herself into it. Wasn't that like a moth flying into a flame?
"Don't treat me like this. Don't spoil me anymore, okay?"
She was afraid that she would fall for him if she wasn't careful.
He Shaochen was a little happy, but also a little heartbroken.
He held Qiao Qiao in his arms and patted her back gently. "Okay, okay. Why are you addicted to crying? You're my woman. If I don't spoil you, who else should I spoil? "
It would have been better if he hadn't said that. Once he said that, Qiao Qiao cried even harder.
Her heart was in a mess.
Completely in a mess.
She didn't like Family He, but she couldn't hate He Shaochen.
He Shaochen wanted to persuade Qiao Qiao to stop crying, but after thinking about it, he thought that since she was suppressing herself, why not cry to her heart's content and vent all the pent-up anger in her heart?
With this thought, he let her be.
When Qiao Qiao had cried enough, her voice was hoarse and she had no strength left.
He then asked tentatively, "Are you done crying?"
Qiao Qiao slowly propped herself up from his arms. Her eyes were as red as a rabbit's. She said in a muffled voice, "Yeah, I'm done crying …"
"Then can you answer a question for me now?"
"What question?" Qiao Qiao's voice was still a little choked up.
