…

Night falls.

A black car slowly drove into a quiet villa area.

It's obviously not a noisy business reception, but more like visiting someone's home.

"Where are we going?" Qiao An looked stunned.

"An elder's home." Mo Kai said calmly.

No wonder today in the styling studio, Mo Kai specifically told her to keep her makeup light and elegant, and her clothes were not traditional dresses. She chose a knee-length umbrella skirt made of black velvet, which made her look elegant and solemn.

Qiao An instantly became nervous. Mo Kai wanted to take him to meet some elder by mobilizing troops like this.

But when a tall and majestic figure appeared in his sight, Qiao An was still surprised. The elder Mo Kai mentioned was actually Qiao Zhen.

"Why is it Mr. Qiao?"

Mo Kai smiled and said, "Dr. Qiao said there was a family dinner today and he specially invited us over."

Qiao An's pupils suddenly dilated, so just now in the studio, when he said he wanted to send her back, he was just...pretending!

Mo Kai took one look at it and said, "Let's keep the accounts together. Let's do the math together later."

Anyway, the debt between the two of them cannot be settled clearly. It is better if it is not settled clearly, so that it will be involved for a lifetime.

Qiao An had a sense of proportion and suppressed her emotions, "It's my first time visiting the house. It wouldn't be appropriate if I didn't prepare anything."

Mo Kai raised his chin to show her to look at the back seat.

Qiao An felt relieved.

Also, how could a thoughtful and careful person like Mo Kai lose his etiquette?

Qiao Zhen stood outside the yard to greet him personally, which naturally made Mo Kai and Qiao An a little flattered.

Mo Kai stretched out his hand and said, "Dr. Qiao, I'm sorry for bothering you."

"I'm very happy that you two can come together. Come in quickly. There's no one else at home, so there's no need to be restrained."

Qiao An followed him into the house and scanned the room with restrained and polite eyes.

Qiao An was a little surprised. There was no extravagant feeling in the house. Except for some hanging paintings and calligraphy, occasionally decorated with flowers and plants, there was nothing else. It was simple and elegant, just like entering some kind of meditation hall for self-cultivation.

And as Qiao Zhen said, there was no one else in the room, just a few domestic servants serving food to the long dining table.

But Qiao An remembered that Qiao Ning mentioned when she got off work today that her mother had returned to China.

As if he knew what Qiao An was thinking, Qiao Zhen took the initiative and said, "My wife is back. I originally planned to introduce you to each other today, but she had a hard journey and was feeling a little unwell. She has already fallen asleep. An Ning is up there with her. It's okay.

, we can just eat.”

Looking at the dishes on the table, most of them are Sichuan dishes.

It can be seen that Qiao Zhen specially prepared it.

"Miss Qiao, try it?" Qiao Zhen opened her lips, "Let's see if it's authentic."

Qiao An moved her chopsticks and took a bite, "It tastes like...the same as Tianla?"

"As expected, it's Miss Qiao. It's the restaurant you took me to that day. I invited the chef to come." Qiao Zhen said easily, but Qiao An always sounded like there was a little sadness in his smile.

.

Qiao An couldn't help but wonder if it was because Mrs. Qiao missed today's dinner that he felt a little regretful.

However, Qiao An also felt a sense of regret inexplicably.

She had an indescribable curiosity about Qiao Zhen's wife. For example, she had just learned that the elder Mo Kai mentioned was Qiao Zhen. Her first reaction was surprise, and her second reaction was, it can be seen

It’s time for Mrs. Qiao.

Qiao An was also shocked by his inexplicable brain circuitry.

It's a pity that I can't see you tonight.

Qiao An retracted his thoughts and his eyes fell on the two men on the table who had already started to toast and chat.

Suddenly a question came to mind. Since it was a family dinner, why did Mr. Qiao suddenly think of inviting himself and Mo Kai today?
