Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“What meeting? Why didn’t I know?”
“Let’s go.”
“Hey, hey, hey. Why didn’t you inform me in advance about the meeting? Shao
Jingmo, walk slower. It’s easy to fall if I don’t see the way clearly.”
“Then I’ll carry you.”
“Don’t you dare!”
“l dare!” Before Qiao Qiao could protest, Shao Jingmo picked her up in front of
Father Qiao. Before he left, he specially said to Father Qiao, “I’ll leave first.”
Father Qiao was dumbfounded as he watched his daughter be carried away by Shao Jingmo. Mother Qiao walked to Father Qiao’s side and nudged him with her elbow. “Isn’t it strange?”
Father Qiao hissed. “Young men’s way of dealing with relationships is simple. When they make a fuss, they ignore each other for a month. When they reconcile, he immediately hugs her. There’s nothing strange about this though. I haven’t found anything strange about what Guigui does since she was young.”
Mother Qiao looked worried. “I’m just worried about what will happen if Guigui really falls into it.”
Father Qiao smiled and said, “It’s normal for her to like him.”
“The matter with the Bai family hasn’t been resolved yet.” Mother Qiao reminded in a low voice, “If Shao Jingmo can really keep the Bai family in
check, he wouldn’t have dragged it out until now. Do you think the Bai family is really to be trifled with? I’m afraid that Shao Jingmo will go back on his word. At that time, our Guigui…”
Father Qiao’s expression turned serious. In the end, he said nothing and turned to go in with a dark expression.
Shao Jingmo carried Qiao Qiao into the car. She was dissatisfied. The first thing she did after he put her in the car was to kick him with the tip of her high heels. The force wasn’t heavy, but it wasn’t light either. Qiao Qiao herself felt the pain for him. But Shao Jingmo’s face did not even frown. She moved closer. “Doesn’t it hurt?”
Shao Jingmo said, “Be gentler next time.”
Qiao Qiao deliberately mocked him. “You’re pretending so well. I thought you were really made of iron.”
Shao Jingmo stretched out his arm and naturally placed it on her shoulder. He asked her, “Where are you referring to?”
The smile on Qiao Qiao’s lips disappeared. She raised her hand and pushed him away. “Be serious.”
Shao Jingmo, who had been pushed away, leaned over again. “What are you thinking?”
Qiao Qiao glared at him. “Shut up.”
Shao Jingmo raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Are you scolding me?”
Qiao Qiao raised her leg again. “Not only am I fierce to you, but I’m also kicking you.” With that, she kicked him, but this time, she deliberately restrained the strength of her kick. Unexpectedly, when she kicked him this time, her ankle was grabbed. She kicked him twice and could not pull back. “Shao Jingmo, let go if you have the ability.” She felt that this posture was a little dangerous.
Especially the dress she was wearing. If she wasn’t careful, it would be exposed.
Shao Jingmo pressed the switch with his other hand, and the front panel slowly rose, blocking the view in front of her. Qiao Qiao!s almond-shaped eyes widened slightly. This was the first time she had seen Shao Jingmo’s car raise the partition since she sat in his car.
Usually, when the partition was raised, they were going to do something bad. Qiao Qiao bit her lip and stared at him defensively. Shao Jingmo slowly massaged her ankle. “Are you afraid that I’ll eat you?”
Qiao Qiao said, “Do you dare?”
Shao Jingmo chuckled. “Of course.”
Qiao Qiao shut up. ‘
Knowing that she couldn’t afford to offend a man who had just started eating, Qiao Qiao could still hide. She immediately pounced on him and wrapped her arms around Shao Jingmo’s neck. “I’ll be good. Don’t bully me, okay?”
With that, Shao Jingmo’s pupils darkened, and his Adam’s apple bobbed. He asked her in a low voice, “Say that again?”
Qiao Qiao was a little afraid, because Shao Jingmo’s gaze seemed to be about to eat her up in the next second. “I’ll be good. Don’t bully me, okay?”
He lowered his head and kissed her lips. “Okay,” he whispered back to her.
She wasn’t relieved to hear his answer, because the hand he’d used to grip her ankle hadn’t let go. The repeated, neither light nor heavy rubbing made her heart itch and feel dangerous. Just as she had expected, Shao Jingmo did not let her off easily.
He kissed her again and again until the lip gloss on her mouth was gone. After he took his hand away, Qiao Qiao dared to ask, “Was the brown mark left on your hand the one I made?”
He didn’t take it seriously, and she didn’t mention it. He raised her hand to look at it, then lowered it. “Think of it as the brand you marked on me,” he said playfully.
Qiao Qiao frowned slightly. “Why didn’t you pull your hand away when I bit you that day? You knew how willful I was, but you still deliberately provoked me and said that it didn’t hurt at all as I didn’t eat. I don’t believe that it really
didn’t hurt.’
Shao Jingmo said truthfully, “It hurts.”
Qiao Qiao complained to him, “Then why did you still…”
Shao Jingmo said, “l thought you’d be fine after venting.”
Qiao Qiao was speechless. She couldn’t help but think of some details. Shao Jingmo was always protective of her and obedient to her. He would respond to everything and consider her feelings immediately. He was lukewarm to her because she said that she had to keep her distance. So he was restraining himself.
A guess gradually appeared in Qiao Qiao’s mind. She suddenly turned to look at him.
Shao Jingmo’s gaze was on her. When she turned around, they looked at each other. He asked, “What do you want to say?”
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and asked uncertainly, “Shao Jingmo, have you liked me since a long time ago?”
