Childhood sweetheart Lin Youjia
"You sure have the guts to say that." An Ziyan's lips twitched, but there was no smile on his face.
He moved slightly away from Qiao Qiao and said, "Since you have said so, I have nothing to say. You can continue to believe in your Shaochen."
"I will always believe in him, no matter what others say or do. This will never change." Qiao Qiao's attitude was unusually firm. Seeing that An Ziyan didn't say anything, she asked coldly, "You've said everything you wanted to say, right? May I leave now? "
An Ziyan shrugged with a faint smile. "I'm not stopping you. You can leave if you want."
Who was the person who stopped her just now?
Qiao Qiao really wanted to ask back, but she was afraid that the other party would find fault with her again, so she held back. She looked at her warily and slowly inched out of the alley.
Qiao Qiao didn't speed up until the moment she walked out.
Qiao Qiao left quickly, and An Ziyan slowly walked out of the alley. He glanced at the street, but there was no sign of Qiao Qiao. He couldn't help but scoff, "She really thinks I'm a scourge."

When Qiao Qiao returned to Family He, it was almost nine o 'clock at night.
She wanted to go back to her residence directly, but after thinking about it, she decided to go and greet her Mother He first. She couldn't just leave her alone when she came back.
She went to Mother He's house and found that there were people talking and laughing inside. She was a little curious.
When the servant saw her, she said, "Miss Qiao, you're back?"
Qiao Qiao saw that there were people in the house. She wanted to observe the situation before deciding whether to greet Mother He. However, when the servant said that, everyone in the living room turned to look in her direction.
Qiao Qiao had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk in.
In addition to Mother He, there was also a couple who were about the same age as her. There was a young girl sitting next to the couple. The girl looked sweet and sat there quietly. It was obvious that she was from a prestigious family.
"Mom, I'm back," Qiao Qiao greeted her Mother He, then looked at the couple, not knowing how to address them.
Mother He looked at Qiao Qiao, and the smile on her face faded a little. She sized up Qiao Qiao and couldn't help but frown. "Do you know what time it is? Why are you back so late? You don't have any manners. "
Qiao Qiao lowered her head and listened to her Mother He's reprimand.
"Is this the girl that Shaochen likes?" The wife of the couple glanced at Qiao Qiao and said to her Mother He, "Yixuan, you are so lucky to have found such a beautiful daughter-in-law."
Mother He laughed dryly and raised her thin eyebrows. "Other than her face, she doesn't have any other good points. She can't be compared to Jiajia."
When Mother He said this, the girl sitting next to her smiled shyly. She turned to look at Qiao Qiao, then turned back to her Mother He and said, "Aunt Qiu, I can't be compared to my sister. Don't say that."
Mother He glared at the girl with a gentle smile in her eyes. Her attitude towards Qiao Qiao was completely different. "Jiajia, when have I ever said anything against my will?"
"Haha." The girl's face turned red. She lowered her head and didn't say anything.
Qiao Qiao felt like an extra person here. Mother He's attitude made her feel depressed and a little uncomfortable.
She took a deep breath and told herself that she had to endure it. The other party was He Shaochen's mother. Even if she said something fierce, she had to endure it.
Mother He saw that Qiao Qiao had lowered her head and didn't say anything. She snorted softly. There was some disdain and disgust on her dignified and elegant face. "Qiao Qiao, have you forgotten the etiquette that you learned these days? You don't even know how to greet guests when you see them. You have no manners at all. Even if you are an ordinary family, you wouldn't be like this, right? "
"…"
Qiao Qiao also wanted to greet them, but Mother He didn't introduce them. She didn't know what to say. She clenched her fists tightly and looked at the couple and the girl. She was about to speak.
The couple smiled and tried to smooth things over. "It's our fault. We are too familiar with you, so we didn't pay attention to these things. We forgot that Miss Qiao is new here, haha."
With that, the husband smiled at Qiao Qiao. "Hello, Miss Qiao. I am the chairman of Xining Material Chemicals, Lin Ping 'en. I am an old friend of your Family He. This is my wife, Jiang Yue, and this is my daughter, Lin Youjia."
Qiao Qiao bowed and greeted politely. "Hello, Uncle Lin. Hello, Auntie Jiang. Hello, Youjia. I am Joe Qiao."
"Hello." Jiang Yue smiled elegantly.
Lin Youjia stood up and walked over to hold Qiao Qiao's hand. She smiled cutely. "Can I call you Sister Qiao?"
Qiao Qiao blinked. She was startled by Lin Youjia's enthusiasm. She then nodded. "Sure …"
"Hehe, you are so pretty. Brother Shaochen and you are a good match." Lin Youjia touched Qiao Qiao's hand and sighed. "And your hand is so smooth. What brand of skincare products do you use?"
"I don't usually use skincare products." Qiao Qiao smiled awkwardly. Lin Youjia seemed to be very familiar with her, but she wasn't used to it. They really weren't that familiar with each other.
Both of them felt uncomfortable with such a stiff conversation.
"Ah? You don't even use skincare products and your skin is so good? I'm so envious … "
"…"
"Alright, Youjia. Stop pestering Miss Qiao. You don't know any etiquette," Jiang Yue said with a smile.
Mother He didn't mind. "Youjia is playing with Joe Qiao because she thinks highly of her. Why would she be unhappy?"
With that, Mother He said to Qiao Qiao, "Jiajia will be staying here for a few days. You can be considered half an owner. You must treat her well, okay?"
"Huh?" Qiao Qiao was stunned. She glanced at Lin Youjia, who was holding her hand and smiling. She didn't think much of it and nodded. "I will treat Youjia well."
As soon as she said that, a servant's voice came from outside the house. "Welcome back, Young Master."
The door was pushed open and He Shaochen walked in with elegant steps. When he saw the people in the house, he was stunned for half a second before he walked over and greeted them with a smile. "Uncle Lin, Auntie Jiang …"
"Wow, Brother Shaochen! Long time no see! " Lin Youjia let go of Qiao Qiao's hand and ran toward He Shaochen, but He Shaochen casually dodged her. "Long time no see, Youjia."
"Haha, Shaochen is also back. Have you been busy with work recently?" Lin Pingen asked with a smile.
He Shaochen smiled faintly and said, "It's been okay."
"Shaochen is indeed young and promising. He manages such a large financial group well. Yixuan, your son is really promising."
Mother He smiled proudly when her son was praised. "Our Shaochen has always been reassuring since he was young."
Everyone chatted for a while more and the Lin couple prepared to leave.
"We've disturbed you for a long time. We'll go back first. Youjia, be good here. Don't be as lawless as you are at home," Lin Pingen reminded.
