Qiao's mother stumbled back to where she lived, wanting to find Qiao Zhishu, but when she knocked on the door, she saw that her door was closed.
She rubbed it with her palms and was speechless.
She knew that she had harmed her daughter.
Mother Qiao lightly bumped her forehead against the door panel, and not long after, the door was opened from the inside.
Qiao Zhishu carried a canvas bag and was ready to go out.
"Qiaoqiao, you...where are you going?"
"There are still classes today."
Mother Qiao's eyes were full of distress, and she held her hand, "It's now like this, why should we go to class? Have a good rest at home..."
"I can't let my homework fall behind. I need a scholarship and I want to graduate smoothly."
Qiao Zhishu passed by her and walked out.
"Qiao Qiao." The voice behind him was hoarse, filled with both bitterness and distress.
"Mom, going to school will make me feel better. I don't want to stay here."
Mother Qiao's steps to catch up also stopped.
Qiao Zhishu walked out of Chen's house, and when he was going out, he happened to run into Chen Ying.
Chen Ying was going to see her master. When she saw Qiao Zhishu, she greeted her with a smile, "Qiao Qiao."
She ignored him and walked past her.
Chen Ying saw this and stopped in front of her, "I haven't seen you for just one night, and my eyes are already growing on the top of my head? Sure enough, it's different when you climb a high branch."
Qiao Zhishu raised his eyes and looked directly into Chen Ying's eyes.
Chen Ying covered her lips and smiled softly, approaching Qiao Zhishu, "My master is a very nice person, and I just happen to be short of a master's wife. How about..."
"Ah!" Before she could finish her words, she felt a sharp pain in her waist.
Qiao Zhishu bumped her ribs with his elbow.
Chen Ying bent over in pain and pointed at her retreating back, "Qiao Zhishu! I will make you look good!"
As soon as the words came out, she realized that something was wrong and she had to endure everything until she got engaged.
…
The most elusive thing in this world is time. Soon, it will be the day when the Xing family and the Chen family are engaged.
The engagement banquet was held in the evening, and it was said that a full two hundred tables were entertained, and the entire largest hotel in Shangyu City was booked.
Qiao Zhishu was pulled out of the car by Chen Ying. The Xing family also called in a lot of media. The engagement party was held with great splendor, and Chen Ying could not allow any accidents to happen.
"Qiao Zhishu, I'm warning you! You'd better cooperate! I will move to the Xing family after tonight, and I won't cause you any trouble from now on."
Chen Ying tightened Qiao Zhishu's arm. "So, when you face the media at night, you have to laugh even if you can't help it!"
Such a big hotel, such a big battle, but there wasn't even a photo of her and Xing Huo at the door.
Chen Ying was a little unhappy.
Some close relatives of the Xing family and Chen family gathered together before the engagement party to discuss the process of the party.
Qiao Zhishu and Qiao's mother were brought over and sat in the corner of the box.
Chen Ying is wearing a formal dress and is covered with expensive jewelry. She looks very graceful with every smile.
She felt like she was dreaming, and the day she had been longing for had finally arrived.
The master of ceremonies came over and talked to Chen Ying and Xing Huo.
“Mr.
Chen Ying sat next to Xing Huo, leaning her head lightly on the man's shoulder, "Okay, let's take a look first."
Qiao Zhishu noticed that the lights in the large box dimmed.
A picture suddenly appeared on the projection screen not far away. It was static at first, and gradually, the figures in the video began to move.
The man's eager, rough breathing penetrated the entire box.
Before anyone could react, Chen Ying screamed, shattering the happiness that should have belonged to her.
