Throwing Tantrums
Adam turned around and smiled faintly at Qiao Qiao. "Lilith, why are you suddenly talking about this?"
"Can you answer my question directly?" Qiaoqiao's expression was serious.
Adam took a deep breath and said calmly, "No …"
"Then who did it?"
Qiao Qiao asked.
Her palms were sweating. She thought that Adam would try to fool her again, but she didn't expect him to deny it directly. Did that mean that he had something to do with Qiao Hui's death?
Qiao Qiao suddenly realized that asking this question was the wrong thing to do.
Adam slowly walked towards her, the expression on his face changing unpredictably.
"Then Lilith, who do you think did it?" Adam stopped in front of Qiao Qiao and lifted her chin with one hand. An unreadable emotion flashed across his dark red eyes.
This Adam made Qiao Qiao's heart palpitate.
Her heartbeat quickened.
Qiao Qiao pushed Adam's hand away and looked away. "I'm the one asking the questions."
"Qiao Hui deserved to die."
Adam's figure suddenly turned cold, as if he was covered in ice, chilling her to the core.
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but shiver. Why did she feel that Adam was so hostile towards Qiao Hui? Just as she turned her head to look at Adam's expression, her eyes were covered by the other party's warm big palm. Qiaoqiao was stunned. "Adam …"
"There's no need to investigate Qiao Hui's death, and there's no need for sympathy. Her death is a form of relief for the Qiao Family."
Adam's voice became very faint.
It sounded very close, but it also felt very far away. It was slow, gentle, and very relaxing.
Gradually, his consciousness also became unclear.
In the end, she could only remember one sentence. "There's no need to investigate Qiao Hui's death …"
"When you wake up, forget what happened just now."
"Wake up, Lilith," Adam said calmly as he tapped on his thumb ring. "Wake up, Lilith."
When his hand moved away from Qiao Qiao's eyes, Qiao Qiao's eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings. Then, she slowly opened her eyes. Her amber eyes were still a little dazed when she saw Adam. Qiao Qiao was a little confused. "What did I do just now? Adam, why are you here? "
Adam's lips curled up.
He rubbed the top of Qiao Qiao's head with a gentle expression. "It's nothing. You have to try on the dress in the afternoon. Just don't forget about it."
"Oh."
Qiaoqiao replied thoughtfully.
"Why do I feel like I fell asleep?"
"Maybe you're too tired."
Adam said casually.
"But I clearly slept yesterday …" Qiao Qiao suddenly remembered that Lacey had come to her last night. After that, she had been … confused …
…
What was she confused about?
Qiao Qiao couldn't remember.
However, since she couldn't remember, it shouldn't be too important.
Adam asked coldly, "Did something happen to Lilith last night?"
Qiao Qiao was dazed. She felt that Adam was someone she trusted very much, so there was no harm in telling him, so she said, "Executive Officer Lacey came to me last night. She wants me to save Ravel."
"She wants you to save Ravel?"
Adam clenched his fists.
He continued to ask, "And then? What do you plan to do? "
"I plan to save Ravel."
Qiao Qiao told him honestly.
"Have you made up your mind?"
"Yes, I've made up my mind. Ravel is already the only male in the direct line of Charlie's royal family. I can't just watch him die."
Moreover, if Lacey's words were true, Ravel really didn't have to die.
After a moment of silence, Adam smiled and said, "Yes, I understand. Lilith, I support your decision."
Now it seemed that the only person who could save Ravel was Qiao Qiao. Qiao Qiao was still useful to the J Organisation and would not hinder her. If Ravel could really be saved, his other plan could be implemented after this incident.
"Do you support it?"
Qiao Qiao was surprised.
She thought that Adam would definitely argue with her, but she didn't expect him to agree so easily.
Adam knelt on one knee in front of Qiao Qiao, took her hand, and kissed the back of her hand. Then he looked up at Qiao Qiao and smiled dotingly. "As long as it's your decision, I'll support it unconditionally."
Of course, it must be something good for you.
Adam didn't say this out loud.
Qiao Qiao's face was a little red. Adam was always able to move her. She nodded and said, "Thank you, Adam."
"What are you two doing?"
A cold voice came from the door.
Qiao Qiao and Adam came back to their senses and saw He Shaochen walking in with a gloomy face.
Adam let go of Qiao Qiao's hand and stood up.
Qiao Qiao said, "Shaochen, why are you here?"
Strange, didn't this guy go back to A Land? Why did he come back?
"Can't I come back? Oh, I'm sorry to disturb you two. "The moment he opened his mouth, the whole room was filled with jealousy.
Tsk, tsk, tsk …
Was this person soaked in vinegar?
"Adam, you can go do your own thing."
Qiao Qiao said.
"Yes."
Adam nodded and packed up the documents. When he passed by He Shaochen, he clearly felt a murderous gaze on him. But he didn't care. After all, no matter how murderous the gaze was, it couldn't kill anyone.
After Adam left, He Shaochen sat directly by Qiao Qiao's bed.
"What were you talking about just now?"
He Shaochen narrowed his eyes and asked. They were talking and laughing, which was really annoying.
Qiao Qiao shook her head and said, "Nothing. By the way, Shaochen, I want to tell you something. I'm going to use the immunity to save Ravel."
She thought that He Shaochen would support her.
But unexpectedly, He Shaochen's reaction was completely different from Adam's.
"No!"
He Shaochen's face suddenly became very bad.
"Why?"
Qiao Qiao asked with dissatisfaction.
"Who knows if that man will repay evil with good?"
"No!"
"How do you know? No? Are you a roundworm in his stomach? Or do you have the ability to read minds? Why are you so sure? "He Shaochen asked back.
Qiao Qiao: "…"
He Shaochen's questions made Qiao Qiao unable to refute, because this matter could not be explained clearly in a short time. What made her depressed was that He Shaochen did not support her unconditionally. Even Adam said that as long as it was her decision, he would support her. Why couldn't her husband do it?
"I don't want to talk to you anymore!"
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and turned over to lie down.
Anyway, the immunity was in her hands. She had the final say in who she wanted to save. He Shaochen could not do anything if he did not agree.
He Shaochen was a little annoyed by Qiao Qiao's attitude. Thinking of the mess in A Country, he was in a bad mood. He stood up and said, "Anyway, you are not allowed to save Ravel. It will not be good for you. I'm going back first."
With that, He Shaochen left.
Hearing He Shaochen's footsteps fading away, Qiao Qiao sat up and looked over. He Shaochen had already left.
She suddenly felt depressed.
What was wrong with this person? Was he here to make her angry?
He Shaochen was also very depressed.
As Qiao Qiao was going to be crowned the next day, he was afraid that she would be nervous and rushed over to see her. Who knew that he would see her talking and laughing with Adam? Did she even care about him as her husband?
Husband …
At the mention of this word, He Shaochen felt even more frustrated.
Qiao Qiao and his wedding in A Country had been made legal through special channels. But now, Qiao Qiao was no longer "Joe Qiao". She was Lilith Lamperton Charlie. So, in the end, their marriage was still invalid. He was her husband.
Now, it was more like he was Qiao Qiao's lover.
After all these troubles were solved, he must hold a grand wedding with her to make up for all the pain he had suffered before!
At this moment, He Shaochen's cell phone suddenly rang.
He Shaochen turned on his cell phone.
When he saw the caller ID, he immediately frowned.
"Hello?"
"He Shaochen, bad news. Today, the systems of two subsidiaries are down. It says that we are not to be nosy …"
"Why are you calling me for such a small matter? Don't you know how to send people to fix it?" He Shaochen shouted into the phone.
After being shouted at by He Shaochen, the subordinate's voice became softer. "Keke, one of the subsidiaries was hacked yesterday and hasn't recovered yet. We can't do anything about it …"
"Trash, wait for me to come back!"
He Shaochen immediately switched off his cell phone.
There were so many problems in A Country. If this continued, he wouldn't be able to come to J Country in the short term.
Damn it!
He Shaochen cursed and kicked the corner of the wall.
"He Shaochen, the private jet is ready!" Qin Dong said.
He Shaochen nodded. "Okay, I'll go back immediately."
This time, he originally planned to go back after Qiaoqiao's coronation. However, he was angered by this girl today, and something happened at the company, so he could only go back early. Why was it that no matter what happened today, everything was not going well?
In the afternoon.
The tailor and the designer of the gown brought Qiao Qiao's gown over. During the fitting process, Qiao Qiao's face was like a bun the whole time. The designer thought that her gown had dissatisfied her and was trembling in fear.
"Lilith, this gown suits you very well."
Adam stood at the side and looked at Qiao Qiao with admiration in his eyes.
Qiao Qiao was still angry, but when she heard Adam's words, her expression softened. However, she couldn't smile and nodded sullenly. "After all, it was made by a famous teacher. No matter how bad it is, it should be good."
Adam chuckled and dismissed the others.
"Cheer up, Lilith. Tomorrow is your coronation day. You can't have such a sour face."
Qiao Qiao tried to force a smile, but the next second, her face fell again. "But I'm still very angry."
Adam sighed.
He walked towards Qiao Qiao and pressed her shoulders. "Lilith, look into my eyes."
"Hmm?"
