Cong Lie's eagle eyes looked away from Teng Ying a little embarrassedly, and said in an awkward tone: "What does it mean? It means literally. Let's spend this Dragon Boat Festival together."

"Together?"

Happiness came so suddenly, Teng Ying couldn't believe it.

"Then, let me go back and pack my clothes now, I..."

Cong Lie interrupted her, took out an interstellar card from the optical brain bracelet, and handed it to her: "No, those clothes were all brought out by you from Zui Sheng Meng Shi, and now you are no longer the eldest lady there, nor

It's time to have a new life, I'll take you to change into some new clothes."

Teng Ying took the interstellar card, still a little confused.

It wasn't until Cong Lie grabbed her sleeve and led her out that she felt a little more real and followed him out.

"My aircraft is right in front. Let's go to the mall to buy some clothes later, and then go back to my home. I didn't bring too many rice dumplings. You can eat some when you get on the aircraft."

Teng Ying nodded obediently, and after following Cong Lie onto the aircraft, she belatedly asked him why he suddenly wanted to spend the Dragon Boat Festival with her?

"You are here. Are you not busy at the black market? Will I...will I delay you?"

Teng Ying is not a person who stutters, but for some reason, whenever she talks to Cong Lie, she can't help but become like this.

Cong Lie is already used to this.

Hearing this, he pursed his lips and replied to her: "Of course I am busy, but no matter how busy I am, I still have to live my own life. As for the delay, it is not a problem. I am not the only one in the gambling house. When I am not around,

, of course someone will temporarily replace me."

Teng Ying felt relieved now and opened the rice dumplings brought by Cong Lie to try the taste.

After opening it, she found that the rice dumplings were warm, probably because they had been warmed by Cong Lie before they came.

Realizing this, Teng Ying felt warm in her heart, and when she ate the salty rice dumplings next, she could taste a little sweetness from them.

I don’t know if it’s because the rice dumplings are sweet or because of something else.

.........

When Qiao Mei took Ao Cang back home, Ao Cang saw that there was less than ten minutes left before arriving home, so he stretched out his dragon claw again and poked Qiao Mei's arm.

"An'an, um, actually there is something that I may have done too impulsively or wrongly. I want to apologize to you."

"What's the matter?" Qiao Mei raised her eyebrows, a little surprised that Ao Cang would take the initiative to confess to him, pretending not to know about it.

Ao Cang lowered Long's head and told her that he secretly opened her optical brain bracelet, responded to messages for her without permission, and deleted her chat history with Xu Heyu.

"I don't know why, but I suddenly did it in a rush. An'an, if Xu Heyu comes to find you and asks why, just blame it on me. I did it...

."

Qiao Mei turned on the autopilot mode of the aircraft and interrupted him: "You did a good job. Xu Heyu did seem to have some other intentions in doing this. It's okay to refuse."

However, if she could get Ao Cang to refuse, she might not be able to do it with Xu Hui.

Ao Cang was confused: "Don't you blame me?"

Qiao Mei glanced at him, a little confused: "I blame you for what you did. Didn't I tell you that no one is more important than you? You did this without asking my opinion in advance. Although it is indeed wrong, it doesn't matter.

Big deal."

The implication is that even if he gets into great trouble, she will not reprimand him, but will help to protect him.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Mei's optical brain bracelet received a voice call from Xu Heyu, so she touched Ao Cang's dragon head, let him wrap around her neck and clicked to connect.

"Hey, Xu Heyu, what's wrong?"

"Little Rose, did you see the message I sent you before? Did you reply to it?"

When Xu Heyu saw Qiao Mei's rejection reply, she felt lonely for a while.

But thinking about it later, when he was chatting with Qiao Mei on the optical brain before, he had never seen her speak to him in such a cold and hard tone.

So I sent many messages one after another to test her.

I just don’t know why, but she didn’t reply.

Qiao Mei glanced at the little black dragon who looked guilty, and cleaned up the mess for him: "You saw it, it was me who replied, what's wrong?"

"Is it really you who replied?" Xu Heyu still felt strange, but now that she had said so, he could not ask further questions, so he could only change the topic and talk about Xu Hui inviting him to spend the Dragon Boat Festival at Qiao Mei's house.

Things.

"Where did your family celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival? If it's over there in the villa area, I'll go and cause trouble for you. If it's the Xu family's main residence, then forget it."

At the main residence of the Xu family, some of the more favored children from the direct and collateral families are summoned to come back for the holidays every major or major festival.

It’s probably no surprise this year either.

After hearing what Xu Heyu said, Qiao Mei asked him to wait while she asked Xu Hui first.

Having more than one person in the family celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival has no impact on her, but for Ao Cang, he will be unhappy and think about all kinds of things.

So secretly, she wanted to go back to the Xu family's home.

Just as I was thinking about it, Xu Hui’s optical phone called.

Save her the trouble of calling again.

"Xiaomei, your grandpa said that this year's Dragon Boat Festival wants us to go back to the Xu family's home to spend time. He said that he wants to reintroduce us to the outside world. What do you think? Just tell your mother. If you don't want to go back, your mother will refuse.

Your grandpa."

Xu Hui has divorced the crown prince, and now she finally has a chance to repair the rift in her family relationship with Mr. Xu. Qiao Mei will choose to agree even if she doesn't want Xu Heyu to go with her.

She said: "Then go back. At present, none of Grandpa's other children are too close to him. Mother, you used to be Grandpa's most beloved child. Even if he did something wrong before, Grandpa still loves him very much.

You, you don’t want him to be plotted by other children at this age, right?”

Mr. Xu is getting older, and the Xu family's property will have to be handed over sooner or later.

Just when Qiao Mei returned to the Xu family's home and learned from Xu Wenfeng how to dismantle and install mechas, she had bumped into several direct relatives who had rarely come to see Xu Wenfeng, saying they were visiting Xu Wenfeng.
p>

But after those relatives left, she heard Xu Wenfeng say that in the past ten years, they had rarely visited once a year, and she understood what they were thinking.

As for Xu Hui, she previously thought that after Xu Hui severed ties with the Xu family, she really stopped asking for any news about the Xu family.

It wasn't until she accidentally saw Xu Hui's private diary that she realized that she had been quietly paying attention to Xu Wenfeng and the others over the years.

Even the funeral that Old Mrs. Xu held after her death was held at a place some distance away from the funeral site. In fact, she still had a sense of filial piety, but the gap with her family was too deep.
