Qiao Qiao tried to stop Shao Jingmo from helping her take off her clothes, so she stretched out her hand to hold Shao Jingmo's hand and said, "Uncle, I can do it myself."

"Don't you mean you are weak, you want me to help you?" His voice was cold, and the hand holding her calf did not let go.

Qiao Qiao was flustered: "I feel strong now and can do it by myself."

Shao Jingmo looked expressionless as if he didn't hear her words.

His fingertips lingered on her snow-white skin, and his fingertips rubbed it neither lightly nor heavily. He repeated it several times, irregularly, but it was impossible to ignore, and there was no next move.

Qiao Qiao bit her lip tightly.

Shao Jingmo's legs were itchy when he touched them, and he never let go of his hands. Now not only were his legs itching, but his heart was also itching.

Fortunately, he still had some conscience. Knowing that her knee was still hurting, he still released her calf, slowly took off the stockings, put them aside, and then checked the bruise on her knee.

The atmosphere was silent throughout.

He said nothing, and Qiao Qiao did not dare to break the silence and ask him to check her.

"The skin is not broken." He said softly.

Qiao Qiao took advantage of the moment and quickly retracted her leg: "It doesn't hurt as much as before. It should be fine."

"Don't move." He reminded.

Qiao Qiao's movement to retract her legs stagnated, and then she stopped moving obediently.

Shao Jingmo stood up, took out his mobile phone and made a call. Yan Jian said, "Bring me a pack of ice packs."

When Qiao Qiao heard that Shao Jingmo had called someone to bring an ice pack, she knew it was for her without asking. She quickly said, "Uncle, this is too troublesome. I'm really fine. No need for ice packs."

"Quiet," he reminded her.

Qiao Qiao was a little scared and kept her mouth shut.

After Shao Jingmo finished explaining, he hung up the call.

The waiting time was naturally not short, and Qiao Qiao really hoped that the person delivering the ice pack would run faster. She sat obediently and did not dare to move. She was feeling uncomfortable in various ways, but she did not dare to show it too obviously.

"Don't be too restrained in front of me." Shao Jingmo saw her discomfort: "Just be yourself, I won't restrain you, at least not when it's just the two of us."

Qiao Qiao's awkward tone: "I have no restraints."

Shao Jingmo looked down at her: "My body is almost frozen into a stone sculpture. Isn't this restraint?"

Qiao Qiao choked: "..."

She moved her body a little, but she still felt uncomfortable, and her eyebrows frowned slightly. She didn't know that just this small change in expression was noticed by Shao Jingmo.

He turned and walked away, giving her some space to be alone.

As soon as he left, Qiao Qiao's body immediately relaxed a lot. She didn't dare to put away the stockings beside her just now. Now that Shao Jingmo was gone, she quickly put the stockings away and stuffed them into the bag she carried.

Phew~

She guessed that she and Shao Jingmo were incompatible with each other. Fortunately, they were only in a physical marriage. If they were in a real marriage relationship, the days when they were incompatible with each other would probably be miserable.

A few minutes later.

Jingcheng knocked on the door and came in, handing the ice pack he had specially found to Shao Jingmo: "Third Master, this is what you want."

Shao Jingmo was smoking. He blew out a puff of smoke, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, reached for the ice pack and said, "Send the meal here at noon."

Jingcheng rarely hesitated for a moment: "Third Master, do you also send your share here?"

Shao Jingmo hummed, holding an ice pack and walked towards Qiao Qiao sitting on the sofa.

Jingcheng scratched the back of his head and looked at the back of the third master walking towards the eldest lady. It was really difficult to figure out the third master's thoughts. It was clear that the third master liked the eldest lady very much, but he would not let the eldest lady know, and the eldest lady

I am also afraid of the third master, and it seems that no matter how hard this relationship is eased, it will not work.

Now the third master has arranged for the eldest daughter to join the company. Although it seems that he is starting from the bottom, the account books are directly shown to the eldest daughter. Is it possible that the third master also plans to train the eldest daughter to take over the entire Deep Blue Group in the future?

But this is not realistic. The eldest lady’s qualifications and abilities are simply not able to control the entire Deep Blue Group.

Furthermore, the third master has worked so hard to control Shenlan in his own hands, and it is unlikely that he will give Shenlan to the eldest lady easily.

As expected, the third master's thoughts were not something that could be guessed casually. Jingcheng did not dare to look over at the sofa and turned around to walk out.

And here on the sofa.

Shao Jingmo approached Qiao Qiao with an ice pack. He squatted down and said, "The skin is not broken. Applying it will reduce the swelling and it won't hurt that much."

Qiao Qiao stretched out her hand: "I'll do it myself."

Shao Jingmo glanced at her, which made Qiao Qiao think that she was ungrateful. After all, he was the president of Shenlan Group and a well-known figure in Xingzhou. He deigned to help her apply leg dressing, but she still shyly resisted.

In fact, it's just that her inner drama is too rich.

Shao Jingmo just asked: "Can I do it?"

Qiao Qiao was stunned for two or three seconds, then nodded quickly: "Okay."

Shao Jingmo didn't say anything more and handed the ice pack to her.

Qiao Qiao took it with trembling hands, as if she was afraid that Shao Jingmo would regret it, so she immediately put it on her knees and gave Shao Jingmo a silly smile.

Shao Jingmo did not leave, but sat down next to Qiao Qiao. He did not sit very close to her, but maintained the usual distance. While she was applying pressure on her knee, he asked her: "Qiao Qiao, let's talk.

"

Qiao Qiao turned around: "What are you talking about?"

Shao Jingmo didn't look at her: "Let's talk about the next thing."

Qiao Qiao didn't ask anything, she knew what Shao Jingmo would say next.

"We have no feelings. Marriage is just a formality. You need me to help you deal with the Bai family. I am willing to agree to repay the kindness of grandpa's upbringing. There will be no conflict with each other." He said slowly.

These words are very common.

But it was something Qiao Qiao had never heard of.

Moreover, I have never had an honest chat with Shao Jingmo before. This is the first time.

Qiao Qiao almost couldn't keep up with the rhythm. Her brain was sluggish for a few seconds before she could catch up. She didn't even call her uncle, but also her first and last names: "Shao Jingmo, are you going to change your mind now?"

Shao Jingmo looked at her sideways: "Change your mind?"

Qiao Qiao released the ice pack in her hand, hugged Shao Jingmo's arm with both hands, and said nervously: "You can't change your mind midway. If you don't protect me, something will happen to me."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shao Jingmo said nothing and just looked at her quietly.

The quieter the atmosphere, the more panicked Qiao Qiao felt. She was really afraid that Shao Jingmo would really change his mind if he said he changed his mind.

The power of the Bai family is gradually rising, and she cannot resist the power of the Bai family on her own. She will only be captured by the Bai family to fulfill her promise.

When she thought of her fate, Qiao Qiao felt like crying. She lowered her attitude: "I will listen to you. If I said anything to make you uncomfortable, I apologize. Whatever you say in the future I will

Just do whatever you want, I will never disobey you, I just ask you not to change your mind, I don’t want to marry a bad old man from the Bai family."

Shao Jingmo twitched the corners of his lips: "I am many years older than you. In your eyes, am I not also an old man?"

"You're not." Qiao Qiao said firmly.

Shao Jingmo asked her: "Are you trying to please me?"

"It's not to please." Qiao Qiao shook her head: "How can people from the Bai family compare with you? That's Yunni, okay?"

Shao Jingmo: "Although you just said this to please me, I am still happy."

Qiao Qiao whispered: "I'm not trying to please you, I'm just telling the truth. I've never seen anyone better than you."

Even if her words were true and not meant to please him, Shao Jingmo didn't think so. He would only think that she was just trying to please him because she would not praise him for other reasons.

Shao Jingmo leaned back and said in a calm tone: "I still say the same thing, there is no need to please me in every possible way in the future, it is meaningless. Just do whatever you want. If God breaks it, I will make it up for you. If you lose in a quarrel, I will make it up for you.

Support me, it’s a very simple thing.”

After a pause, Shao Jingmo added: "Also, I won't change my mind easily, at least before I bring down the Bai family."

The last sentence was to reassure Qiao Qiao.

Promise that before taking down the Bai family, she will never change her mind easily and let her lose her protective umbrella.

Qiao Qiao was so frightened that she breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Shao Jingmo said: "I won't scare people like this next time."

"I'm not scaring you, you're scaring yourself." He said, bending down to pick up the ice pack on the ground, turning sideways and applying it on her red knees.

Qiao Qiao didn't insist on doing it by herself this time, she just watched him applying it to her. As she watched, she couldn't help but say: "Uncle, you are quite good to me."

Shao Jingmo pulled his lips: "Really?"

"Yeah, don't always disbelieve me. I often tell you I'm serious. For example, just now, I said I've never seen anyone better than you. I meant it, but you didn't believe me."

Shao Jing said calmly: "I believe it."

Qiao Qiao snorted: "It's just perfunctory."

After saying that, she reached out to take over Shao Jingmo's hand, pressed the ice pack on her knee, and said to Shao Jingmo: "I will not lie to you in the future."

Shao Jingmo was silent, and then took out the cigarette case. This action obviously meant that he wanted to smoke again, but because he was beside her, he did not take out the lighter and light it.

He quietly played with the cigarette case in his hand, seemingly absent-minded. From Qiao Qiao's point of view, this reaction clearly meant that he didn't take what she just said seriously.
