Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qiao Qiao should have called him Mr. Bai after Shao Jingmo introduced Bai Chen’s identity. But Bai Chen’s deliberate words made Qiao Qiao feel very uncomfortable. Without thinking, she retorted, “You don’t look young either. If 1 didn’t specifically mention seniority, I would have thought that I had to call you Uncle.”
The smile on Bai Chen’s lips froze. A faint smile could be seen between Shao Jingmo’s eyebrows. At this moment, Bai Chen slowly stood up. “It seems that Miss Qiao is very guarded against me. It’s understandable. After all, I’m a member of the Bai family. The Qiao family is most guarded against the Bai family now.”
With that, Bai Chen walked out of the booth. “I’m afraid I’ve dampened Third
Master’s mood. I’ll leave first. Third Master, let’s talk when we’re free.’
Shao Jingmo said, “Take care.”
Bai Chen nodded. Before he left, he glanced at Qiao Qiao meaningfully.
“Goodbye, Miss Qiao.”
Qiao Qiao’s lips twitched downward, but it wasn’t that obvious.
After Bai Chen left, Qiao Qiao slowly relaxed a little. She was probably a little afraid. If Little Uncle didn’t come tonight, she wouldn’t know how to deal with this Bai family. Her legs were a little weak from fear. At this moment, Shao Jingmo grabbed her wrist and pulled her down to sit on his lap.
Qiao Qiao didn’t move. Shao Jingmo placed his arm on her lower back and massaged her gently. “Were you frightened?”
Qiao Qiao didn’t dare to be stubborn. “A little.”
“His name is Bai Chen, and he’s Bai Qingfengs stepson. He’s the eldest son in name and isn’t related to the Bai family by blood,” Shao Jingmo said.
Qiao Qiao frowned. “Previously, Grandpa said that the Bai family didn’t have a man of my marriageable age. It turns out that Grandpa had excluded Bai Chen, who isn’t related to the Bai family by blood, from the list.”
Shao Jingmo said, “Bai Chen is a hidden danger.”
Qiao Qiao was curious. “How so?”
Shao Jingmo said, “Bai Chen is not liked in the Bai family. He only has the surname Bai. On the surface, he is not allowed to participate in anything in the Bai family. Eating, drinking, playing, and being ignorant are all illusions.
If you peel off that layer of cat skin, there might be a tiger inside.”
Qiao Qiao swallowed. “No wonder I thought Bai Chen’s gaze just now didn’t look simple.”
Shao Jingmo turned to look at her.
Qiao Qiao was stunned. “What?”
Shao Jingmo asked her, “Do you still want to drink?” Qiao Qiao:
Shao Jingmo said, “Or should I order male models?”
When Qiao Qiao heard the words “male model”, her eyes lit up instinctively. In just a few seconds, Shao Jingmo saw everything. He laughed in anger and pointed casually at the dance floor where heat waves rolled nearby. “You want that one over there?”
How could Qiao Qiao not see Shao Jingmo’s expression? She shook her head violently. “No.”
“You’re already here.” Shao Jingmo had a serious expression. “Go and order something you’re satisfied with. So that you didn’t come here for nothing tonight.”
Qiao Qiao panicked. “Little Uncle… are you serious?”
Shao Jingmo smiled. “What do you think?”
Although Qiao Qiao could understand Shao Jingmo’s expression, she couldn’t quite figure out what he meant. Why didn’t it sound like he was angry? He didn’t really want her to order male models, did he? “You hesitated.” Shao Jingmo stared at her face.
Qiao Qiao swallowed and tried to explain. “l…”
Shao Jingmo’s lips twitched. “Qiao Guigui, you actually hesitated.”
Qiao Qiao: ‘
Now, there was no way to clear her name. Why should she guess his thoughts? Of course, she didn’t go to the dance floor, let alone order male models. A few minutes later, Shao Jingmo held Qiao Qiao’s hand and walked out of Bar Buff. As soon as she came out, the cold wind blew on her face and Qiao Qiao instantly sobered up.
Jingcheng went forward and Shao Jingmo handed him the car key. “To the
Tianfang Water Pavilion.”
The Tianfang Water Pavilion was a personal property under Shao Jingmo’s name. In the past, when Qiao Qiao didn’t return to Xingzhou, he often went there to stay. After Qiao Qiao returned to the Qiao family, he rarely went to stay at the Tianfang Water Pavilion.
It was not appropriate to return to the Qiao residence tonight. So Shao Jingmo took Qiao O?ao to the Tianfang Water Pavilion for the night. Jingcheng went over and drove the car over. Shao Jingmo carried Qiao Qiao into the car.
Qiao Qiao was already light-headed and dizzy. She obediently leaned into Shao Jingmo’s arms and closed her eyes to relieve herself. She suddenly remembered what Shao Jingmo had said about going to the Tianfang Water Pavilion. She suddenly opened her eyes and asked, “Aren’t we going home?”
Shao Jingmo said, “Yes, but we’re going back to our other home.”
Qiao Qiao nodded and closed her eyes again.
Shao Jingmo said, “Sleep for a while.”
Qiao Qiao wanted to sleep, but there were many things she didn’t ask in her heart. She had held it in for a long time and couldn’t sleep in peace. She struggled with herself for a long time. Finally, she found the courage to ask him, “Why are you holding someone else’s hand?”
Shao Jingmo frowned. “What?”
Qiao Qiao said, “l said, why are you holding Lin Xingruo’s hand?” Before Shao Jingmo could answer, Qiao Qiao straightened up from his arms and said with a serious expression, “You can’t hold someone else’s hand. You have to avoid others touching your hand, or I’ll be jealous.”
Shao Jingmo smiled and pulled her into his arms. “l know.”
Qiao Qiao blinked. “?”
Shao Jingmo did not explain much. For example, who was that scene for?
He was like a fish in water in the Qiao family and had everything under his control in the business world. He should not have any weaknesses, but because of her, the person leaning in his arms now, he could only follow the plan and do what he had to do for the Qiao family.
Therefore, Qiao Qiao didn’t know how much Shao Jingmo was carrying. She only knew how to throw a tantrum. After throwing the tantrum, she began to regret it. Before she could apologize properly, she felt sleepy and fell asleep in Shao Jingmo’s arms.
However, she did not sleep well. She rubbed against Shao Jingmo’s arms, causing his expression to darken. Finally, the car arrived at the Tianfang Water Pavilion.
Jingcheng felt the atmosphere in the car change. “Third Master, we’re here.”
Shao Jingmo’s voice was hoarse. “Go back first. Don’t worry about anything Jingcheng nodded and immediately got out of the car to leave.
Shao Jingmo didn’t carry Qiao Qiao out of the car. Instead, he locked the car door. His palm restrained the side of her waist and he lifted her slightly. Qiao Qiao sat on his lap. He had no intention of waking her up.. He went straight to the point in this cramped space…
