Chapter 106 Can’t sit still anymore
Seeing that Aunt Chihiro was not with grandma, Xingbao suddenly lost interest and struggled to get off the ground.
"No, Grandma Li said last time that going to the countryside means farming, which is exhausting. I won't go."
Xie Qiong tapped her forehead and said, "You are still so young, why would you need to till the fields? Aunt Qianxun also said that there are beautiful mountains and rivers there. Didn't Dad ask each of you to paint a rural oil painting? How can you paint it if you don't go and see it?"
Jingbao blinked his eyes, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Grandma, let's go."
If you can't see your mother, go and take a look at the places she has played.
Xie Qiong breathed a sigh of relief and handed the phone back to Song Ma: "You come with us. The young master and the young lady are going to the town to play for a while. I am worried about their three meals a day outside."
Song Ma understood: "Yes, madam."
The other side of Beijing.
Hearing the other party hang up, Zhao Xi threw the phone on the sofa with a "bang". Mengmeng hadn't gotten up yet. Since she went to Huai County for two days last time, she had postponed several announcements for no reason, and she had lost a lot of time, whether it was filming or endorsements.
With nothing to do, Qin Chuan ignored her, and there was no new progress on the detective side, she went home in anger.
When she got home, her father Zhao Kuan was busy in the kitchen. Seeing her come back with a gloomy face, he just glanced at her and ignored her. He put the fried egg on the clear soup noodles, brought it to the small living room, and started eating by himself.
I have had a poor appetite these past few days. Smelling the taste of childhood, Zhao Xi went over to look at his father and said, "Dad, I want to eat it too. I haven't tasted your cooking for a long time. Can you make me a bowl too?"
"No more noodles." Zhao Kuan took a bite of noodles without even raising his head.
He was not welcomed when he returned home. His mother was not there. She must have gone to the hotel to wash dishes. For the first time, Zhao Xi felt resentful towards his stubborn father.
"Dad, you have always treated me like this over the years. Do you still regard me as your biological daughter?"
Zhao Kuan raised his head: "Do you want me to call you Madam Qin? Or a big star?"
This blatant alienation and humiliation made it almost impossible for Zhao Xi to conceal all his frustration and anger. His face was a little distorted, but his tone was still calm as he complained in a low voice.
"Is it so hard for you to accept what happened back then? Why did I do this? It was for you and for this family! Our family is at the bottom of society. We have worked hard all our lives but cannot even afford a house. The only way to cross the social class barrier is to marry into a wealthy family."
Zhao Kuan felt ashamed whenever he thought about the past. When he heard his daughter's unrepentant words, his face turned red and his neck became thick.
He said sarcastically, "Then I should really thank you! I have such a promising daughter like you! Then let me ask you, have you crossed the class barrier?"
Zhao Xi's face was a little ugly, and then his eyes were full of complaints: "It's all because of you. You forced me to go abroad back then, allowing Jiang Qianxun, the poor daughter, to take advantage of you."
"She is just better off than me, but in terms of social status, she is not as good as me. I really don't know what is so attractive about her."
Although the relationship between father and daughter has hit freezing point, blood is thicker than water after all, and Zhao Xi couldn't help but speak out what was in his heart.
Zhao Kuan continued to eat noodles with his head down. After several seconds, he raised his head and said coldly, "Is it me who forced you to go abroad, or is it you who was afraid of the Qin family's downfall and wanted to find a way out for yourself? You know it in your heart."
"If you have time to come back and complain to me, why don't you think about how to deal with Miss Jiang and see who of you is better at snatching men, so that you can realize your dream of crossing the class barrier."
After finishing his sarcasm, Zhao Kuan didn't want to face his daughter who was full of calculations, so he went into the room with the bowl in his hand.
Zhao Xi looked at his father's departing back, feeling more and more frustrated. He was so angry that he threw his bag on the sofa and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook.
As a result, there was really no noodles left in the kitchen.
During those two years, she was pampered by Qin Chuan. The smell of cooking fumes in the kitchen made her sick. She couldn't stay at home anymore and simply went out to eat.
Century Square.
Zhao Xi was wearing a mask and a baseball cap, so no one recognized her. She went to a western restaurant, found a corner seat and sat down. She took out her cell phone out of habit and wanted to call Qin Chuan.
But recently he always ignored his calls. She was afraid that she would be blocked again if she called too much, so she endured it and put down her phone.
Bored, she propped her head up, took out her work phone, and prepared to take a few selfies and post them in a nine-square grid on Weibo to try to attract some attention.
Suddenly, a young woman came to the table next to her. She looked about the same age as her and was also wearing designer clothes, but the smell of perfume was a little strong.
She was holding her bag in one hand and talking on her cell phone in the other.
"I know I have to go to the Xing family to find Xing Mingyu! But I finally came back from Huai County, and the security guards wouldn't let me in at all. What can I do!"
"Even if I want to throw a tantrum, I have to give birth to the 'child' before I can do so. Now I can't even see anyone, how can I do so?"
"Humph! Jiang Qianxun, that woman, is not worthy! She must be having an affair with Manager Zhang! I succeeded in having sex with her last time! Wait until she comes back, and see how I will vent my anger!"
Jiang Qianxun?
Hearing the name, Zhao Xi paused posing. She listened quietly, a hint of calculation flashing in her clear eyes. She waited until the woman opposite finished her call before she walked over.
"Sorry, can I sit here?" Zhao Xi smiled sweetly under the mask.
"you are?"
She pulled down the mask to reveal her face, then put it back on and looked at the stunned woman opposite her.
"You are...the big star Zhao Xi!" Su Rourou looked at the beauty in front of her in disbelief.
"You can just call me Zhao Xi. I just heard you mention Qianxun. I am her..."
When Jiang Qianxun was mentioned, the admiration in Su Rourou's eyes instantly turned into vigilance: "I remember you are her best friend, what? Are you going to help her bully me too!"
Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows: "You are hers..."
"My mom is her stepmother, she should call me sister!"
Zhao Xi suddenly realized and sat directly opposite Su Rourou, his eyes falling on her slightly protruding belly: "I heard you mention Xing Mingyu just now, ah, isn't he the brother of my brother Qin Chuan, then you, you are Xing Mingyu's......"
When Su Rourou mentioned this, her face froze, and then she touched her belly: "I am carrying Xing Mingyu's child, so who do you think I am?"
The corner of Zhao Xi's mouth twitched.
Who is Xing Mingyu?
He is the one who has the final say in Jingshi. If she really gets pregnant with his "dragon seed", will she not even be able to enter the Xing family's door?
too fake.
But that's not important.
Seeing that she kept asking, Su Rourou suddenly came back from her smugness and looked alert: "Why are you asking this? Are you trying to help that woman Jiang Qianxun to bully me?"
Zhao Xi smiled. At this moment, the waiter came over with the menu and water. She also poured a glass of water for Su Rourou.
"Don't get me wrong, I heard you mention Chihiro and Xing Mingyu, and I thought that you must have some misunderstanding with Chihiro. Besides, I know where Xing Mingyu is, so..."
"Do you know where Xing Mingyu is?" Su Rourou didn't care about anything else when she heard the name Xing Mingyu: "Where is he?"
"She is in Huai County."
"What? I just came back from stealing... in Huai County, and they are there! What are they doing there?"
"It seems to be for some project. Are you doing development in Huai County recently?"
Su Rourou nodded, believing Zhao Xi's words to a point: "Yes, yes, yes! He is really there! Wait, you said, Jiang Qianxun is there too?"
"Yes. A few days ago, it was my brother's birthday, and I saw Qianxun and Xing Mingyu sitting together and chatting happily." Zhao Xi watched Su Rourou's face getting colder and colder, and continued.
"You are Chihiro's sister, you should know that the baby in her belly is not my brother Qinchuan's, right? You say, they have such a good relationship, will the baby in Chihiro's belly......"
Zhao Xi deliberately didn't finish his words, staring at Su Rourou.
Anyway, the baby in Jiang Qianxun's belly is definitely not Xing Mingyu's. This Su Rourou claims to be pregnant with Xing Mingyu's baby. Whether it is true or not, given their tit-for-tat attitudes, it would be a disaster if something happened to Jiang Qianxun.
If it really doesn't work, she can still make friends with her. She believes that one day, Su Rourou will help her.
After hearing this, Su Rourou could no longer sit still.
"How is that possible? The one in my belly is the real thing! By the way, where does she live in Huai County?"
Zhao Xi gave an address, which was the one that Assistant Gao sent to Meng Meng last time.
After listening to this, Su Su had a complicated expression on her face, and she looked at Zhao Xi after two seconds.
"Well, I have something else to do today, so I won't accompany Miss Zhao. I'm leaving first. Thank you for telling me this. I'll treat you to dinner another day. Here's my number."
Su Rourou took out a business card, threw it down and left.
Looking at Su Rourou's leaving back, Zhao Xi picked up the business card and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Huai County.
Jiang Qianxun woke up late today because she was too sleepy. When she looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock.
When I went to the next room to wash up, I found that the room was empty, and the small computer desk and computer were gone.
After washing up and going to get her autumn clothes to put on, she found that the men's clothes that were originally placed next to her clothes were also missing.
He really is gone.
Jiang Qianxun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
You should be happy, less embarrassed and more free.
Thinking of freedom, she has been busy these days and has not gone out. The baby care APP said that pregnant women should go out more often. There is not much work today, so she has to go out and take a look.
After getting dressed and finishing the breakfast that was delivered to her, Jiang Qianxun went downstairs, ready to take a walk around the small county town.
There is a long sidewalk in front of the hotel, with unknown trees planted on both sides. When the autumn wind blows, yellow fallen leaves cover the ground, making a crackling sound when stepped on.
"Baby, mommy will take you for a walk."
Jiang Qianxun touched her not-very-obvious bulge in her belly and walked forward comfortably.
She didn't tie her hair up when she went out today. Her long wavy hair fell to her waist. Her ankle-length skirt fluttered in the wind, which matched her fair skin and delicate facial features. From a distance, she looked like an oil painting with full artistic conception.
People passing by on the street couldn't help but look back, even the delivery man riding an electric scooter passing by quickly couldn't help but take a look.
Jiang Qianxun was already used to being noticed, so she didn't care much.
She had no idea that a pair of eyes were glaring at her hatefully in a snack bar on the street ahead.
"Mom! It really is that woman! She really came to Huai County!"
On the other end of the phone, Shen Lan paused, "No wonder Jiang Wenyuan said that the group suddenly won several Huaixian property projects recently, and Jiang Qianxun's voice in the group has also increased a lot. It turns out that he has someone close to him!"
