Xu Qiao sighed and got out of the car, put a few strands of hair behind his ears, and stood in front of Cheng Ye: "It's me."

"You..." Cheng Ye stared at her, then looked at Cheng Lang, "You and my second brother..."

Cheng Lang's eyes slowly swept across the two of them, and his eyes were filled with a sense of scrutiny that became more confusing and calmer.

Behind him, Gao Rui said with a "mistake" on his face and said in a low voice: "Mr. Xiao Cheng, let me speak with you?"

About half an hour ago, Cheng Lang sent Gao Rui a message asking him to inquire about Xu Qiao's background. Gao Rui had just learned about the specific situation and had not had time to report it.

Cheng Lang walked a few steps away.

Gao Rui attached himself to his ear and explained in a low voice: "I just confirmed that the young master and Miss Xu had a short relationship not long ago, which was the thread that Mr. Xu asked for someone to join in."

Cheng Lang's eyebrows slowly raised.

Gao Rui read the micro expression "What surprises are there to wait for me" between his eyebrows, and quickly answered his doubts: "The above is the exact information, and there are also my personal inaccurate guesses - the person who had a conflict with the young master in the street in front of the Xifu Club a while ago, and the person who gave the suit to Mr. Lidun that day, is probably Ms. Xu. If so, according to the young master's attitude, he regretted it after breaking up, and is currently trying to get back with Ms. Xu."

As soon as Gao Rui finished speaking, the conversation coming from a distance confirmed his guess—"Xu Qiao, what do you mean? I had been hanging in Odreden that day for so long, and turned around and got along with my brother?"

"You just stand there and say, don't always touch your feet?"

"I just started to move my feet, where did I move my feet?" Cheng Ye grabbed Xu Qiao's wrist and dragged her away from Cheng Lang's Zeppelin, "Then I will move my feet to show you."

Xu Qiao laughed angrily at the mentally retarded, and was pulled by him for a few steps. Under a shadow over his head, the pressure on his wrist suddenly disappeared.

Cheng Lang pulled Cheng Ye away: "What's the matter?"

Cheng Ye shrank his neck like a conditioned reflex, and seemed to feel embarrassed in front of Xu Qiao. He raised his head and raised his chest to ask Cheng Lang: "Second brother, do you owe me an explanation too?"

"Explanation?" Compared to Cheng Ye's bluff, Cheng Lang's tone was as calm as if he was just asking "what is the time now?" "What identity are you using to explain to me?"

This incisive question made Cheng Ye unable to speak for a long time.

Cheng Lang turned around and winked Gao Rui: "Send Miss Xu to the car first."

Cheng Ye stepped forward and wanted to stop someone and ask for an explanation, but Cheng Lang blocked him sideways: "Come on, ask. What do you want to know, ask me."

"What's the use of asking you? What does she mean to me, you don't know!"

"I know."

Cheng Ye was stunned.

After the sound of closing the car door came from behind, Cheng Lang continued, "Do you know why she needed a coat in Lidun that day?"

"What's wrong with this? She's cold."

Cheng Lang shook his head.

Cheng Ye was confused: "Why is that?"

"Her dress is broken."

"ah?"

"A woman, when she is most embarrassed and needs help, she refuses to show weakness to you. What do you think she is interested in you?"

No wonder that day, his brother would remind him to stop as soon as possible.

Cheng Ye was confused: "I didn't even notice it even when I was so close to her. How did you see it?"

"You can't just use your eyes when dealing with women," Cheng Lang gently patted his shoulder, "You must also use your heart."

But didn’t his brother see it with his eyes? Cheng Ye frowned and thought for a while, feeling that it should make sense to say so profoundly, but he couldn’t understand the mystery for a while.

"Are you finished asking?" Cheng Lang glanced at him.

Cheng Ye lowered his eyes and said "Oh".

"Happy?"

"Of course I'm not happy."

"Then why ask?"

"..." Cheng Ye raised his head in confusion, as if he was a little confused. Why did he make such a fuss about himself?

"Ask the end of everything, it's a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. Adults are happier to live a confused life. Do you know?"

Cheng Ye nodded depressedly, and then slapped the back of his head when he watched Cheng Lang get into the back seat of Zeppelin.

No, Cheng Lang asked him to ask just now. His brother was humiliating him to the fullest, and he still made him feel that he was humiliating himself?

——

When Cheng Lang got into the car, Xu Qiao had returned from the posture of slitting the window ridge to sitting upright.

After being sent into the car by Gao Rui, she watched silent movies throughout the whole process because the window and door were locked, and she didn't know what the two brothers said.

As soon as Cheng Lang entered the car, a cold air mixed with strong alcohol came to his face, causing Xu Qiao to feel guilty.

She tightened her knees and glanced straight at the man who was half a meter away from her. Judging from his expressionless face, this is not a good time to touch the president Ni Lin.

The atmosphere in the car was chilly, and even the driver didn't dare to ask where Cheng Lang was going. Gao Rui, the co-pilot, was about to break the silence "as soon as the hero left, he never returned", but when he heard Cheng Lang open his mouth: "Where do you go?"

The question is Xu Qiao.

"Oh..." Xu Qiao realized the sensitivity of this place name and braked suddenly.

Cheng Lang probably combined Cheng Ye's questioning about her just now and figured out the causes and consequences. He smiled and smiled like "You little girl is really amazing" on his face, and looked at her side: "Outlets?"

In the middle of the night, how long has the mall been closed? Did you ask me unintentionally? Xu Qiao replied with a tough bullet: "It's Odreden..."

Cheng Lang nodded gently and asked without knowing the joy and anger: "Isn't this time wrong?"

Xu Qiao choked. Why did he hold such a grudge? Isn’t he a gentleman?

But she was the one who made the mistake first, so she would just say a few words in her heart, but she admitted that she said: "It's not wrong..."

Cheng Lang raised his chin to the driver who was staring at the rearview mirror and signaled to drive.

On the way to Odleyden, no one spoke in the car. No one mentioned the episode just now. It was not until the car stopped in front of the hotel door and closed his eyes and rested all the way. Cheng Lang seemed to finally plan to finish off the farce tonight and spoke forward: "You get off the car first."

Xu Qiao's back, which was loose due to calmness and silence, was instantly straightened.

What's going on with this tone of "Transfer, I'm going to be too excited"?

Looking back at the door of Se, Cheng Lang also said in the same tone, "Send Miss Xu to the car first", and then Cheng Ye was stunned in front of him like a quail, as if he had suffered some inhumane mental torture.

So is it her turn now?

It turns out that it is not that the time has not arrived.

Xu Qiao was thinking, when Cheng Lang Xing asked for guilt, she poured out the explanations that had been brewing all the way - for example, the time when she and Cheng Ye ended before they met him, or maybe she had already rejected Cheng Ye with her own actions...

But the first word Cheng Lang said was: "Sorry."

Xu Qiao was stunned and turned his head to look at him.

"My brother is very immature in dealing with relationships between men and women, and his sense of morality and responsibility are also very low. During this period, he should have caused you a lot of trouble and harm."

Xu Qiao was unexpectedly surprised and laughed hastily: "This is okay, I have nothing to do..."

"Fortunately, there is no such thing as yet, but I thought about it. As a brother, I am a dereliction of duty, and I shouldn't add fuel to the fire and make this matter worse. Do you think it's, Miss Xu?"

The smile on Xu Qiao's face suddenly faded.

"What does Mr. Cheng mean?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Xu, I think we are not suitable for further development based on the relationship my brother and you have established. I didn't know about it before, but now I'm stopping the loss in time is the best result for you, me and my brother."

——

"The best result, I wanted to give him the result!" Half an hour later, Xu Qiao put on a facial mask on the hotel sofa and talked to Zhu Li in a furious phone call, "The road of life is so long, why did he take a shortcut and be so anxious to see the end of his life?"

Zhu Li's reaction was a little slow because of excessive alcohol intake tonight: "What does it mean?"

"It means he's tired of living!" Xu Qiao's mask cracked a corner violently, "I was swearing that 'I can't even fight against my love rivals, why should I chase a girl'? When should I settle my love rivals? He told me to stop the loss in time! What, am I a loss-making stock?"

Zhu Li sighed: "This man is really, so he just ran away after he flirts. He also used his brother as a shield and said with a high voice that he would not have a partner with you for your own good... Is this still human words?"

That is, everyone is adults, and no one can understand the subtext. Before Cheng Ye disrupted the situation, Cheng Lang had already had strange emotions. Later, he obviously took advantage of his younger brother's east wind to find an excuse to be on the stage to send her off.

The essence of this matter is that he is no longer interested in her!

"Is he changing his mind just because he found out that I was not pure?" Xu Qiao sniffed.

"Actually, it can be understood that many rich men have the same idea. Anyway, they just play around with it, so they can find a pure and obedient card. It is best to be the kind that cannot be financially independent. They can take the initiative, and they can get together and part with each other. There is no need to bother to serve them. Give them some small favors and the woman will be very happy. Look at you, this is what I gave Cheng Lang, but tonight I broke his fantasy about you. Of course, they say to you."

"So you mean, I was dumped because I had money?"

"..." The key point is also quite unique and irrefutable.

"Is it my fault to have money?" Xu Qiao stood on the sofa with her hands dancing, about to express her condemnation, but was suddenly interrupted by Zhu Li.

"Wait," Zhu Li reviewed the process of Xu Qiao and Cheng Lang's encounter, "You don't have money now, and it seems that you have to have a partner with Cheng Lang because you don't have money, so that you can save the country in a curve and let your father restore you economic freedom, right?"

“…”

Xu Qiao sat down cross-legged again: "Yes, I'm so immersed in the show that I forgot that I'm just for money." She said this, looking at the thick stack of fashion week invitations on the coffee table in front of her, wiping the corners of her eyes, "No, what does it mean to be 'just' for money, it's so true! Look at me, I'm so poor that I haven't finished any of the four major fashion weeks this fall."

"Since that's the case, should Miss Xu, who is out of business now, try to make a big fuss?" Zhu Li suggested.

"How to break it?"
