Gray:080 Who would I be if I weren’t you?(1/2)
"Looks like you had a lot of fun playing outside!"
Qiao Mingchu's words caused Layer Yixun to cast her gaze on his handsome face, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He raised his face slightly and threw the bag in his hand casually on the sofa nearby.
"I was just laughing at you. I didn't expect that you would be waiting for me to come back for dinner so late. Shouldn't I thank you for your concern?"
That night completely overturned her view of everyone in the Qiao family, especially the two Qiao brothers. Her glasses were always colored.
In response to Fu Yixun's indifference, Qiao Mingchu in front of him frowned slightly. When his eyes swept over Qiao Mingjun, who was slowly approaching, his eyes suddenly became deeper.
"It's very late, hurry up and eat!"
After saying that, he turned around, ignored Layer Yixun in front of him, and strode towards the restaurant.
"I originally thought you would go to the mall, but unexpectedly, I took the opportunity to say that you went to the coffee shop! Did you meet Mrs. Leng?"
Compared to Qiao Mingchu's indifference, Qiao Mingjun's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he walked over and said calmly, looking at Layer Yixun, there was an ambiguity in his eyes that she couldn't understand!
Layer Yixun felt an immediate urge to run away. She would always remember that night of a week, and since that night, she would never eat at Qiao's house again.
Three meals a day, she would come to this dining table and dine with them.
As for what happened that night, she selectively ignored it and refused to mention it again. What made her strange was that after that night, the next morning, she did not find a figure in the darkness in her room.
, how many times did she want to run to ask Qiao Mingjun what happened after he came to his room that night, but when she thought of the bright red on the sheets and the clear tearing pain under her body, she couldn't bear it again and again.
I held it back and went back.
"I didn't expect you to care about me so much. Thank you for your concern. Please don't send someone to pay so much attention to my every move next time."
Layer Yixun's disdainful snort made Qiao Mingjun in front of him startled. Just as he was about to say something more, he saw Layer Yixun already walking in front of him.
As for this family, Layer Yixun's current feeling is that she is a high-level prisoner. The only thing she has more rights than prisoners is that she can walk out of this prison at any time, but she has to be under their noses at any time.
She couldn't do anything, she could only let these people control her life.
"How do you feel?"
As soon as he sat down, Qiao Mingjun raised his head and asked. When he looked at her without any obstruction, he became extremely hot.
For the first time, Layer Yixun felt like she was on pins and needles, and sitting next to her was her husband, and opposite her, sitting opposite her, was her 'lover' who had spent the night with her.
"I am fine!"
She quickly lowered her head and grabbed the rice bowl in front of her hard, but she didn't know that her actions, in the eyes of the man opposite her, were full of doting, but in the eyes of the man next to her, it was hidden under the lenses of her glasses.
His sight tightened instantly.
"Since you're not pretending to be sick, you should go to the company tomorrow!"
Next to him, Qiao Mingchu's cool voice suddenly came, and he stopped eating. Layer Yixun raised her head, but she happened to meet his smiling eyes.
She has been at home for such a long time, and he has never asked her to go to Qiao's again. Why would it suddenly happen now...
"Do you have to go tomorrow?"
She replied in a low voice. She didn't know if it was because of her inner feelings. When she looked at Qiao Mingchu, she always felt uneasy in her heart. However, she felt very strange, as if it was natural for him to talk to her so forcefully.
of general.
"If Xunxun feels unwell, just rest at home for a few more days. Anyway, the company is not busy these days."
Qiao Mingjun's gentle voice sent a chill down the back of Layer Yixun, who was sitting opposite, with a feeling of imminent disaster. Sure enough, the next second, Qiao Mingchu's slightly sarcastic voice came.
"I didn't expect that you and your eldest brother have such a good relationship. My eldest brother is very concerned about your health - Xunxun!"
The last two words clearly had the feeling of gnashing of teeth. Even Qiao Mingjun, who was opposite, felt it. His face suddenly changed, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face.
"We are all a family, Achu, don't misunderstand me, Xun and I... our siblings are not what you think..."
Qiao Mingjun's feeling that he didn't have three hundred taels of silver in this place made Layer Yixun on the opposite side couldn't help but frown. She only felt that she was so strange to the seemingly awkward, contradictory, and caring man in front of her, unlike her before.
The Qiao Mingjun I knew seemed to have really started to change overnight.
"What are you talking about, brother? Why don't I understand? Aren't we a family? Xunxun only worked for one day and took such a long break. Shouldn't he go back to work? Xunxun also said just now that he is in good health.
Just because the company belongs to your family, you can’t let Xunxun be arrogant and make it difficult for your eldest brother to be a good person in the company!"
As Qiao Mingchu said this, his smiling gaze once again fell on Layer Yixun beside her, which made her heart skip a beat, and the food in her mouth began to become difficult to swallow.
Qiao Mingchu's words were so precise that the two people present were speechless for a moment. Even Qiao Mingjun's face changed color from time to time.
"Because it's our own company, if your body really can't stand it, you can be accommodating."
After a long time, Qiao Mingjun's voice came slowly. Layer Yixun raised her head in surprise, but met his concerned gaze. She felt guilty. She turned her head to the side again, but she happened to see Qiao Mingchu beside her.
With smiling eyes, he kept looking at her up and down.
"Since big brother cares about you so much, you can continue..."
"No need, I will go back to the company to work tomorrow, don't talk anymore!"
Quickly interrupting Qiao Mingchu's words, he quickly finished the meal in his hand with his eyes filled with satisfaction, "I'm tired. I'll go back to the room to rest. You guys can take it easy."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and returned to the third floor without waiting for the two people's answers.
"Why are you forcing her like this? If she doesn't want to..."
"Brother, are you feeling distressed?"
His eyes, which were gradually getting colder, moved towards the third floor, and finally fell on the man opposite. The corners of his red lips suddenly revealed a sarcastic arc.
Qiao Mingjun didn't expect that Qiao Mingchu would suddenly speak so directly. Jun's face sank and he put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands.
"If you insist on feeling that way, then there's nothing I can do about it."
"Admit it?"
A slight smile broke out on his handsome face, but the dark eyes under the lenses showed a cold light.
"Achu, what do you want me to admit?"
Even if he has four measures of money, he will still pretend not to know anything.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they were all filled with chills, until the phone rang in the living room, and Aunt Chen's figure appeared in the restaurant, "The eldest young master, the second young master, the master and his wife, please go to the other side of the garden and say yes."
Something very important needs to be announced to you two."
"Aunt Chen, go and call the second young lady down and go together!"
Qiao Mingjun stood up with a calm expression on his face. Compared to Qiao Mingchu's gloomy expression, he looked surprisingly calm.
"Madam said, just call the two young masters over."
Aunt Chen was a little embarrassed, but when she saw Qiao Mingchu opposite him, he suddenly smiled, stood up slowly, lazily adjusted his clothes, and said slightly relaxedly, "Brother, what are you waiting for? Don't let dad and aunt wait.
Already."
As he said that, the tall figure had already passed Qiao Mingjun and walked towards the door.
Layer Yixun returned to the third floor and poured all the food into the trash can. Except for the food she personally brought, she would not eat any more food in this room. Even the aromatherapy lamp on the bedside was used by herself.
After that night, she never used it again.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Layer Yixun lay on the comfortable bed and turned on the computer in her hand again. The overwhelming news was all about the news about Lay's Group's two daughters and the marriage of Liu's heir.
, they all looked festive, and there were more photos of Liu Ninghao and Lay Yixin hugging each other in and out of shopping malls and various wedding companies. In the end, it was a wedding photo of the two.
Maybe she had really let go. She didn't feel any discomfort when she saw Lay Yixin and Liu Ninghao together again. It was obvious that she was more worried about the Lay Group.
The cell phone on the bedside rang, and when he saw the three words "Enemy is in Danger" displayed on the screen, Layer Yixun couldn't help but frown.
Maybe this week, her life has been too messy, so she will forget for a short time the enemy she has hated for more than ten years.
"Is something wrong?"
Layer Yixun answered the call, but her voice was uniquely cold. Only when facing Leng Shaochuan did her heart become full of hostility and resistance.
"You haven't gone to work at Trader Joe's for a week. Are you feeling unwell?"
Compared to Layer Yixun's indifference, Leng Shaochuan would always direct the question to her first. Layer Yixun frowned slightly and snorted with some reluctance in his voice as an answer.
"Have you seen a doctor? I'll have someone send some supplements to Qiao's house tomorrow!"
"Don't bother. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Why bother pretending to care about me."
Compared to Leng Shaochuan's concern, Layer Yixun was more irritable and quickly interrupted him. She wished she could hang up the phone right away. Now, she extremely regretted her action of answering the phone.
"Do you think my concern for you is just an act? Well, Xinxin and Liu Ninghao's engagement ceremony will be held in a week. My brother-in-law has told you to bring Qiao Mingchu here."
Leng Shaochuan's voice obviously also dropped. It was obvious that Layer Yixun's words had a great impact on him, and there was a slight anger in his voice.
"Why should I take him with me? It would be the same if I went by myself."
What's more, given Qiao Mingchu's situation, he might not be able to attend the ceremony with so many people.
"You are already married, how can it be the same? Do you want the outside world to think that you are living a life that is not valued by others in the Qiao family, and even your own husband neglects you."
"Okay, I understand. We will definitely attend on time. I have nothing to do and I have to rest."
He quickly hung up the phone and then threw the phone on the bedside table. Because of too much force, the phone slipped off the bedside table and fell onto the thick carpet.
As soon as she was disturbed by Leng Shaochuan, it was obvious that even her mood for looking at the computer was in vain. She hated Leng Shaochuan for no reason, but what he just said made her feel extremely disappointed.
Hate.
