He Shaochen seems to be in trouble.
"I'm sorry to trouble you," Qiao Qiao said with some embarrassment.
Hao Youran rolled her eyes at her. "What kind of relationship do we have? Why are you still being so courteous with me? If you continue like this, I'm going to get angry. "
"I won't say it in the future."
Qiao Qiao knew Hao Youran's character. Being polite to her would only make her angry.
"Your face is still a little pale. Are you still feeling unwell?" Hao Youran was still a little worried about Qiao Qiao.
"I'm fine. I feel much better after the transfusion."
"That's good." Hao Youran felt relieved. "By the way, Professor Xu came back today. He asked me where you went."
Qiao Qiao was stunned. "Did you tell him where I was?"
"Not yet. When I heard that you were hospitalized, I rushed over and didn't have time to tell him. Why don't I call him now?"
As she spoke, Hao Youran was about to take out her phone to look for Xu Anting's number.
Qiao Qiao quickly stopped her. "Don't!"
"Ah?"
Qiao Qiao smiled awkwardly. "Don't let Professor Xu worry about my hospitalization. I'll tell him the next time we meet."
"That's fine too. It's up to you." Hao Youran didn't force her. She thought about it and couldn't help but say, "Qiao Qiao, I want to tell you something."
"Hmm?" Qiao Qiao looked at her in confusion.
It was rare for Hao Youran to be so serious. Qiao Qiao couldn't help but become serious as well. "What's wrong?"
"I'm no longer single."
"…"
Hao Youran suddenly blushed. She cupped her face and said with a smile, "He confessed to me the day before yesterday. I thought he was a good person, so I agreed."
"…"
Seeing that Qiao Qiao was stunned, Hao Youran turned around and held Qiao Qiao's hand. She said seriously, "So, you and Professor Xu must speed up!"
Qiao Qiao suddenly regained her senses and looked at Hao Youran in astonishment. "Youran, you …"
Hao Youran looked like an experienced person. She smiled and said, "Actually, I really think that Professor Xu cares a lot about you. Why don't you summon up the courage to confess? Maybe you'll succeed."
If it was in the past, Qiao Qiao might have really mustered up the courage to confess, but now …
He Shaochen had already made her unable to divert her attention.
She did not know how to explain what had happened to her to Hao Youran because it was too awkward.
She smiled faintly. "We'll see."
Hao Youran saw that she was serious and knew that she was not joking. She sighed and said, "You've had a crush on him for so long. You're not anxious, but I'm anxious. Sigh, forget it. You two can do whatever you want."
Qiao Qiao did not know how to answer. She could only laugh dryly.
After Hao Youran left, Qiao Qiao felt inexplicably melancholy.
She remembered that Hao Youran had promised her that she would be single for the rest of her life. She did not expect that after a year, she would have a boyfriend.
She, on the other hand, did not have a crush on him. Now, she even got into big trouble.
It was almost eight or nine o 'clock in the evening. The few bottles of medicine had been given to her. As her fever had subsided, Qiao Qiao packed her things and prepared to return to the villa.
Just then, the door opened.
"Come in."
Ling Yu walked in from outside. There was a trace of tiredness on his handsome face. He smiled at Qiao Qiao and said, "Miss Qiao, I'm here to take you back to the villa."
Qiao Qiao turned around and looked behind Ling Yu.
Ling Yu noticed her gaze. He raised his eyes and smiled. "He Shao is still handling business. He won't be coming back tonight."
Hearing this, Qiaoqiao quickly glanced at the smiling Ling Yu, then shifted her gaze to the side and curled her lips. "I haven't said anything yet, right?"
She was just curious why He Shaochen did not come back to torture her.
Ling Yu smiled but did not say anything.
After the two of them sat in the car, Qiaoqiao leaned against the side of the car and closed her eyes to rest. Ling Yu, on the other hand, had been on the phone ever since he got into the car. Qiaoqiao couldn't block her ears, so she more or less heard some of the content.
After Ling Yu hung up the phone, he rubbed his forehead in frustration. It seemed that the matter was not resolved.
"Is your company in big trouble?" Qiao Qiao asked curiously.
If that was the case, did that mean that she would not have to see He Shaochen for the next few days?
Ling Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly. "It's not big trouble. It's just a little tricky."
"Oh?" Qiao Qiao looked at him and asked tentatively, "He Shaochen is not coming back because of this?"
"Yes."
"Oh." The corners of Qiaoqiao's lips curled up. She leaned against the car window again and happily looked at the gorgeous night scenery outside.
Ling Yu saw Qiao Qiao's happy face and smiled helplessly. Could it be that he had guessed wrong and He Shao was still in love with her?
That would be too tragic.
Not long after, Ling Yu's phone rang again. But this time, Ling Yu looked at the caller ID and showed a bitter expression.
After he picked up the phone, he started to talk in the unfamiliar language of Country Z. It was obvious that he was having a hard time speaking. Ling Yu, who was usually smart, was actually a little nervous at this moment.
Although Qiao Qiao did not want to listen, she did not want to cover her ears. That would be too deceiving.
When Ling Yu reached a certain point, Qiaoqiao suddenly paused and glanced sideways at Ling Yu. A trace of doubt flashed through her amber eyes.
Ling Yu hung up the phone and let out a long sigh. He had finally dealt with it.
At this moment, Qiao Qiao suddenly asked with uncertainty, "Secretary Ling, your Country Z's Country Z's language isn't very good, right?"
Ling Yu was stunned and looked at Qiao Qiao in astonishment. After a long while, he smiled bitterly and nodded. "You can tell? Haha, it's all last-minute preparation. It's not good enough. "
"No wonder …"
Qiao Qiao muttered.
Just now, Ling Yu had made a few grammatical mistakes. He didn't know if he had clearly expressed what he wanted to say.
However, Ling Yu gave Qiao Qiao a meaningful look. He looked at her seriously for a while, then asked, "Miss Qiao, do you know Country Z's Mandarin?"
"I learned a little."
Ling Yu pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke in Country Z's language. Qiao Qiao replied to him in Country Z's language without hesitation.
Compared to Ling Yu's awkward pronunciation, Qiao Qiao's Country Z's pronunciation was much purer and smoother.
Qiao Qiao thought that Ling Yu was trying to show off his knowledge of multiple languages. She smiled faintly and said confidently, "Secretary Ling, I'm sorry to say this, but I don't think your Mandarin is any better than mine."
Therefore, don't show off something you're not good at. You might meet an expert and make a fool of yourself.
However, this person's gaze was a little too intense.
"Miss Qiao, can I ask you for a favor?"
Ling Yu made up his mind. Now, he could only treat this as a last resort.
He looked at Qiao Qiao with shining eyes. If she wasn't one of He Shaochen's people, he might have already given her a big hug.
