What was He Shaochen doing?
"Tsk ~" Everyone looked regretful.
"Tell us, we're really curious."
"Yes, please tell me!"
Qiao Qiao looked at her classmates and said calmly, "This is a private matter between me and Mr. He. The reason why I'm telling you this in front of everyone is that I hope you won't make any strange connections. I also hope that there won't be any rumors without concrete evidence. That's all I want to say. Please make way."
After Qiao Qiao finished speaking, she bypassed the crowd and left.
How could those people be willing?
Such explosive news was enough for them to talk about for several days. Moreover, this kind of real-life example of Cinderella marrying into a rich family was always eye-catching.
"Hey, hey, hey, Joe Qiao, let's talk some more."
"Don't be so stingy ~ We won't spread it around. Just tell us about your encounter with He Shaochen …"
When one or two of them said this, the people around them also followed suit.
Qiao Qiao lowered her head and continued to walk forward. She knew that even if she explained things clearly, these people would not be satisfied. Moreover, her first encounter with He Shaochen was not something she could casually talk about.
After leaving the laboratory building, Qiao Qiao realized that the driver who usually picked her up was already standing at the entrance. When he saw her walk out, he greeted her with a smile. "Miss Qiao."
Qiao Qiao was stunned. "Haven't you been waiting outside?"
The driver explained with a smile, "He Shao said that since our relationship has been made public, it doesn't matter if others see us. He told me to come and pick you up so that you don't have to walk that long."
Speaking of He Shaochen, the smile on Qiao Qiao's face softened. Without saying anything, she got into the car directly.
The students who came out with Qiao Qiao had different expressions when they saw Qiao Qiao leaving in a luxurious car that ordinary people could not even dream of.
"It seems that Joe Qiao is really with He Shaochen. That car must be worth millions, right?"
"I'm so lucky. I still can't believe it."
"Sigh, if I were prettier, I might be able to hook up with a rich husband. Why didn't my mother give birth to me prettier? Then I'll be a rich madam too. "
"When those rich young masters like you, they treat you like the apple of their eye. When they don't love you anymore, they won't even look at you. Anyway, I don't think highly of them."
"I think so too. Don't rich families pay attention to matching social status? I remember that Joe Qiao's family background is ordinary, right? No matter how much they love each other, it's useless if their parents don't agree. "
A few people gathered together and chatted for a while before they dispersed.

The car did not return to the villa directly. Instead, it drove Qiao Qiao to a hotel in Lin Hai.
"This is …" Qiao Qiao looked up at the luxurious hotel in front of her and looked at the driver in confusion.
Did he mean to let her in?
The driver smiled at Qiao Qiao and said, "He Shao asked me to drive you here. Miss Qiao, you can go in directly."
Qiao Qiao looked at the hotel with uncertainty. She was worried that it would be the kind of membership system. How awkward would it be if she was stopped outside? Moreover, the driver's mysterious smile made her feel strange.
Qiao Qiao walked over step by step with a nervous heart. As soon as she reached the door, the hostess greeted her very warmly. "Are you Miss Qiao? Welcome. He Shao is already waiting for you inside. "
"Um … Oh, thank you." Qiao Qiao was shocked by the hostess's enthusiasm.
She walked into the hotel under the hostess's guidance, but found that there was no one inside. There was not a single guest, which added a bit of loneliness to the spacious space.
Did he book the whole place?
Qiao Qiao felt more and more uncertain. What was He Shaochen trying to do?
As soon as she walked to the stairs, the hostess took the ribbon from a colleague standing by the stairs. She turned around with a smile and said to Qiao Qiao kindly, "Miss Qiao, from now on, you need to tie this ribbon around your eyes."
"Why do I need to tie it around my eyes?" Qiao Qiao was alarmed.
She had been kidnapped not long ago. No matter how dense she was, she would still be suspicious of something like this, right?
What kind of hotel would need a ribbon around their eyes to eat at?
Seeing the suspicion on Qiao Qiao's face, the hostess quickly waved her hand and shook her head. "No, no, no. Miss Qiao, please don't worry. This is all Mr. He's instructions. We are just following orders."
"He Shaochen asked you to do this?" Qiao Qiao was still skeptical.
She couldn't help but feel puzzled. What was He Shaochen trying to do? Why did he have to be so secretive about having a meal? She had encountered a lot of things today, and she was so tired that she just wanted to lie down on the soft bed and sleep.
Although the hostess used He Shaochen's name, Qiao Qiao still called He Shaochen to be safe.
The call was quickly connected, and He Shaochen's lazy and deep voice came from the other end of the phone. "Qiao Qiao, have you arrived?"
"What are you up to this time?" Qiaoqiao asked straightforwardly.
The other party was silent for a few seconds before asking, "You're downstairs of the hotel?"
"Yeah," Qiao Qiao replied. "Why did you ask someone to cover my eyes with a ribbon?"
"It's a secret."
The other party answered decisively.
"…"
Qiao Qiao was speechless. It seemed that he had really instructed someone to do this.
If it had been any other day, she would have asked about it clearly, but it was different today. Qiao Qiao just wanted to finish her meal quickly and go home to sleep. Although she was curious, she still planned to listen to He Shaochen.
"Put the ribbon on, and someone will bring you to see me," He Shaochen said. He paused and added, "Hurry up. Don't dawdle."
"…"
Qiao Qiao was helpless. She smiled apologetically at the hostess. "Sorry, I was too suspicious just now."
The hostess had been in this line of work for a long time, and it was the first time she had seen a customer apologize to them. She was very flattered.
She smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Please don't mind, Miss Qiao. Hurry up and put the ribbon on."
Qiao Qiao nodded and obediently tied the ribbon around her eyes.
The hostess reached out and supported Qiao Qiao. She said kindly, "I'll bring Miss Qiao to see He Shaochen now. There's a ladder in front. Please be careful."
Qiao Qiao was relieved to let the hostess take the initiative. Under the hostess's instructions, she went to the second floor.
Because of the ribbon, Qiao Qiao could only feel darkness and the touch of the salty sea breeze on her cheeks. Just then, the hostess who had been holding her hand suddenly let go of her hand.
She seemed to be jogging away.
When people couldn't see things, they would more or less feel a little nervous. As time passed, this feeling of panic would multiply.
