Lao Wan and eldest brother are not at home tonight. They have gone abroad to discuss projects. Most of the family members are women.
In name, Xie Jinhuan was not a stranger. It was late at night and Chu Rou was in trouble. Everyone was watching over her. She didn't want to disturb her family, so she took Xie Jinhuan to the teahouse.
Unexpectedly, Tang Qiao was drinking tea alone in the tea room.
"Sixth sister, you haven't rested yet."
Tang Qiaoer was a little surprised, and then introduced her, "Ah, this is my friend, thank you..."
"The fourth young master of the Xie family, Mr. Xie Jinhuan. I met him last time at Aunt Rou's birthday party. I remember him."
Tang Qiu put down the tea cup gracefully and calmly, and smiled at Xie Jinhuan, "Our Qiaoqiao family has never had any male friends around her except for a few brothers, and Fourth Young Master Xie is the first one."
"Qiao Qiao chose me as her friend, which is my honor to thank someone."
Xie Jinhuan had deep eyes and a smile, looking very sincere, "It is an even greater honor for me to have the opportunity to meet the future wife of the President of Samoa alone."
Tang Qiaoer was a little surprised, she didn't expect him to say that.
Tang Qiao looked indifferent, "I'm just a pretty sister, and my husband is just an ordinary member of the Sen Kingdom. I can't bear what you said."
Xie Jinhuan curled his lower lip and made no comment.
"Qiaoqiao, you can entertain the guests, I won't disturb you anymore." Tang Qiao stood up slowly.
Although Tang Qiaoer was smiling, she clearly felt that the atmosphere between Sixth Sister and Xie Jinhuan was not right, but she could not tell what was wrong.
Tang Qiao retreated outside the tea room.
As soon as she closed the door, her expression darkened, she took out her mobile phone from her coat pocket and dialed her assistant's number.
"I asked you to check, do you have any clues?"
"Madam, I checked and the scandal about Xie Jinhuan has been sent to your personal email."
"knew."
…
Since it was getting late, Xie Jinhuan didn't bother much, so he sat for a while and then went back.
Back in the car, Secretary Tan immediately smiled happily and said: "Mr. Xie, Miss Tang's attitude toward you is getting better as she gets older. Not only did she accept your gift, she also invited you to come in and sit."
Xie Jinhuan pushed up his glasses, his expression not very happy, "Let's drive."
Tang Qiaoer neither accepted his gift nor took the initiative to invite him in.
Everything is still the same as before. He took the initiative to fight for everything and always wished for it.
Tang Qiaoer never took a step towards him.
"Shen Jingjue has been completely rejected by Miss Tang and is completely out of the game. Looking around Miss Tang, I can't find a better man than you. You and Miss Tang will definitely achieve success!"
Xie Jinhuan's cold, white and slender hands loosened the Windsor knot of his tie, and asked lightly: "What do you mean, do you mean that I am not as good as Shen Jingjue?"
Secretary Tan shuddered, almost scared to death, "I don't dare! Thank you for your forgiveness, Boss!"
"Qiaoqiao may have let go of Shen Jingjue, but Shen Jingjue hasn't really let go of her yet, so we can't take it lightly."
As he said that, Xie Jinhuan looked out the window with dark eyes.
"By the way, Mr. Xie, I just got some clues about what you want me to investigate." Secretary Tan said with a gloomy face.
"explain."
"Last time, you and Miss Tang were attacked at the racecourse. Someone did tamper with the horses. Our people tested the horse's blood samples and found stimulating drugs that can interfere with the animals' brain nerves.
Not only that, our people also conducted a secret search inside and outside the racecourse, and finally found this in the trash."
Secretary Tan took out a plastic bag from his handbag, which contained a syringe. "After calling the surveillance camera, we found... that the culprit was indeed the Second Young Master's people."
Xie Jinhuan half-closed his eyelids, his eyes full of teasing, "Xie Jinchen, like Xie Jinli, is a born bad guy. Xie Jinchen doesn't have his brother's skill, he doesn't do things cleanly, and he can't get on the stage.
This kind of idiot is not worthy of my efforts to deal with him."
"Then we can't just let it go, it's too cowardly!" Secretary Tan gritted his teeth.
"of course not."
Xie Jinhuan leaned back and rested with his eyes closed, "He broke one of my ribs, and I broke three of his. He broke one of my arms, and I want him to have a leg. It's not too much."
Secretary Tan kept saying: "It's not too much, absolutely not too much! If you don't do it to him, you are already taking care of brotherhood!"
brother?
Is he worthy?
Xie Jinhuan chuckled lightly and shook his finger.
"If Qiaoqiao was injured at that time and Xie Jinchen's life was taken away from him, how could I have stayed till now?"

After Tang Qiaoer took a bath and did exquisite skin care from head to toe, her heavy mood eased a little.
"Qiaoqiao, are you asleep?" Tang Qiao's voice came from outside the door.
"Not yet Sixth Sister! Come in!"
Tang Qiao opened the door and entered.
Tang Qiaoer turned around while patting her cheeks and looked at her sister wearing a light blue silk nightdress, her clear eyes were smiling, her skin was fair and moist, and her whole body was like a translucent aquamarine.
"Yo yo yo~! The most beautiful first lady is here~"
"Qiaoqiao, where did you get a horse? It's golden and brighter than the lights in the yard. It almost blinded me." Tang Qiu looked curious.
"Oh, it's Xie Jinhuan's horse." Tang Qiaoer continued to massage her face, being a delicate girl.
"Is it his horse, or the horse he gave you?"
"His. He wanted to give it to me, but I didn't want it."
"Your favorite animal is the horse. What he gave you was a bloody horse. You were able to resist such a big temptation. It seems... you really want to draw a clear line with him."
Tang Qiu nodded thoughtfully and murmured to himself, "This way, I feel relieved..."
Unexpectedly, the eldest lady had very good ears and heard it, "Sixth sister, what did you say? Are you relieved? Why?"
"I can see that Fourth Young Master Xie likes you very much. The way he looks at you is so full of love that it makes you pull your hair out."
When Tang Qiaoer thought of this, she had a headache, "I know, he has confessed to me. Oh, what should I do? Is there a book in the world called "How to Stop Exuding Charm" or "How to Stop a Man from Being Attracted to You"
interest".
I am now stressed about things like falling in love, and if this continues, I will have no choice but to cut off my hair and become a nun."
"Why? Because Mr. Shen made you hurt?" Tang Qiu joked warmly.
"Hmph, if it doesn't hurt me, it's just a bite from a dog! Ah, it hurts!"
Tang Qiao'er was thinking about Shen Jingjue, so she pressed her hands a little harder, almost swollen her face.
"Aunt Su was so happy when she saw the horse. She is riding a horse in the backyard now." Tang Qiu changed the topic with a smile.
"What?! Aunt Su rode that horse?!"
Tang Qiaoer suddenly stood up from the chair, her eyes widened, "I've never ridden one before!"
"Ouch, let's go for a ride. You usually give away tens of millions of jewels as many as you want, but you can't bear to part with a horse after just one ride?"
At this moment, Jiang Susu's heroic shout could be faintly heard outside the window:
"Drive——! Hahahahaha!"
Tang Qiaoer held her forehead and said, "Okay, as long as she is happy."
Tang Qiao slowly sat on the sofa, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.
"Sixth Sister, you must have something to tell me if you are looking for me so late, right?"
Tang Qiaoer came over and sat down next to her, held her arm intimately, and asked in a low voice, "Is it related to Xie Jinhuan?"
"I remember that Fourth Young Master Xie came to visit us when he was a child, and you seemed to have a very good relationship with him." Tang Qiao asked calmly.
"Yes, he and I were classmates in elementary school."
Tang Qiaoer narrowed her beautiful eyes and fell into memories, "At that time, he was bullied by his classmates, and I helped him out. He was grateful to me, so he stayed with me during school and after school, just like a little follower.
When I was young, because of my family background, no classmates in the class wanted to play with me, and they all distanced themselves from me. I could only be bound to him and be each other's playmate.
To be honest, that period of childhood... was actually quite happy. Later, he and Mrs. Xie went to Senguo, and we had no contact for fifteen years.
"If we haven't contacted you for fifteen years, it means that if he appears again, he will be a complete stranger to you." Tang Qiu's eyes were deep and thoughtful.
"Yeah, I didn't even recognize him when I first saw him. He used to be fair and tender, like a little girl. Now he's tall and handsome, and he's an ideal in the world."
"Then do you think he is more handsome, or Commander Shen?" Tang Qiao winked at her mischievously.
"Sixth sister, did Mr. Shen give you a red envelope in private? Why do you keep bringing him up? Bad luck!" Tang Qiaoer's heart clenched and she pursed her lips in a depressed tone.
"Qiaoqiao, my sister is not against you making friends. Dong Xie and his father are good brothers, and his son will definitely not bully you. It's just..."
Tang Qiu thought of the Xie Jinhuan file that he had sent people to investigate, and his expression was a little downcast, "This Fourth Young Master Xie is far from as simple as it seems. I investigated his background privately and found out that he has done a lot of business in Sen Country.
The scope of coverage is wide and complex.
The social situation in Mori Country is not as simple as ours. Black society and drugs are banned repeatedly, and the collusion between government and businessmen is blatant. It is no longer surprising. After your brother-in-law took office, the first thing he had to solve was the drug trade and corruption.
"
Tang Qiao'er listened and couldn't help but thought, "Sister, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you and your brother-in-law to walk in the future!"
"Don't change the subject."
Tang Qiu's expression gradually became serious, "In Sen Country, if the business reaches Xie Jinhuan's scale, it is impossible for him not to be involved in the underworld.
I also heard... that he was secretly summoned by the prosecutor for drug involvement, but was ultimately acquitted due to lack of evidence."
"What did you say?" Tang Qiaoer's pupils narrowed.
"Although there was no evidence, he finally returned safely and was not convicted. But there is no smoke without fire. Since he is under investigation, it means that he has serious suspicions.
And the person who was trying him at that time was your brother-in-law’s student. He was the most upright, selfless and frank person. He would not be bribed by anyone, nor would he slander anyone for no reason."
Tang Qiao held her sister's hand tightly, her eyes full of worry, "Qiao Qiao, let's just be ordinary friends. It's better not to get too close to someone with such dangerous factors."
Tang Qiaoer's slender eyelashes trembled, she pondered for a while, and nodded gently, "Sister, I am an adult, I have experienced strong winds and waves, I have seen the most brutal battlefields, and I have also seen the darkest human nature.
I remember what you said and I know it well."

Five days later. Evening.
A row of black luxury cars drove into Guanchao Manor, running end to end in front of the main entrance of the villa.
The first to come down were several bodyguards in black, with golden badges on their chests, symbolizing that they were members of the Huo family.
"Young lady! Please!"
"Ma'am! Please!"
"Mr. Huo! Please!"
The doors of the three cars opened at the same time, and Huo Zhaozhao and his mother got out of the car first.
"grandfather!"
Huo Zhuoqun, who had gray hair on his temples, was dressed in elegant black rags, and was leaning on a golden eagle-headed crutch. With the help of Huo Zhaozhao, he stepped out of the car with a cold face.
"Dad, please slow down." Mrs. Huo also rushed to greet me.
Huo Zhuoqun stared at the door of the Shen family villa coldly and took a deep breath, "Last time, when you came over to propose marriage, from the beginning to the end, that boy from the Shen family didn't even show his face?"
Mrs. Huo bit her lip and nodded shamefully, "Yes."
"Why are you so useless?"
Huo Zhaozhao curled his lips secretly, seeming to express his dissatisfaction with his mother.
"You have also heard about the conduct of the second young master of the Shen family. If he doesn't want to do something, even if Director Shen comes forward, it will be useless. That Qin Shu is still his stepmother, so it won't have the slightest effect." Mrs. Huo trembled in her heart and whispered. explain.
Since her husband's death, Huo Ruxi has been taking care of their house.
Without his son, Huo Zhuoqun would never take her seriously.
"You are Zhaozhao's mother. Your daughter was bullied, and you became so incompetent and angry that you couldn't do anything."
Huo Zhuoqun was so angry that he hit the ground with his crutch, "Our Huo family is also a top wealthy family in Shengjing. No one dares to mess with it. But now because of a bastard, I, an old man, have to personally come forward to settle the matter. This is what you are talking about. , do you want to be filial to me?!"
"Dad, it's all my fault...I'm useless." Mrs. Huo lowered her head and could only keep admitting her mistake.
"Grandpa, Mommy has done her best, so don't blame her." Huo Zhaozhao held Mr. Huo's arm and spoke for his mother obediently.
"Shen was shocked that that boy was too arrogant and arrogant!"
Huo Zhuoqun's eyes burst with anger, and veins twitched on his temples, "What he has done these days is that he has completely ignored our Huo family!
He'd better give me some ideas and marry Zhao Zhao. Otherwise... our Huo family will be the lifelong enemies of their Shen family!"

In the private room of the nightclub, there was a lot of sensuality, not to mention the chaos.
Shen Bailu was having a party with a group of friends, and two almost naked male models were dancing closely with her.
Amid the screams of the crowd, Shen Bailu's eyes were blurred with lust, she raised her neck and poured the red wine onto her trembling chest.
Seeing this, the male model suddenly hugged her tightly, stretched out his tongue along her neck, and licked down inch by inch until she reached her breasts...
The people around him were booing wildly, Shen Bailu laughed wildly, and the flower branches trembled.
After the thrilling game, she carried the bottle of wine and fell down on the sofa like a puddle of mud, laughing uncontrollably while drinking.
"Third Miss, Third Miss?"
At this time, the assistant walked up to her, knelt on one knee at her feet, and said, "There is something going on at Guanchao Manor."
"What's wrong?" Shen Bailu asked lazily.
"Huo's people have passed by. I guess... they came here to propose marriage."
"Hey, what the hell is this? Didn't Huo Zhaozhao's widowed mother pass by two days ago? She didn't even see Shen Jingjue's face, and was sent back in disgrace."
"This time is different. This time not only Mrs. Huo is here, but also the old man of the Huo family!"
Shen Bailu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up suddenly, "Who are you talking about?"
"Mr. Huo, Huo Zhuoqun! I heard that the battle is not small, so I should be here to ask for an explanation."
"Haha, hahahaha! Interesting... so interesting!"
Shen Bailu slapped the sofa hard, her eyes flashing, "Get the car ready! Go back and watch the fun!"
