What should come will come eventually, and Shangguan Siqiao has done enough preparations, so there is no panic at all.

She had dinner with Qiao Xingzhou calmly, and after the dessert came, she pretended to be curious and asked, "Brother Xingzhou, didn't you just say you have something to say to me? What is it?"

"The dessert here is very good, you should try it first." Qiao Xingzhou didn't start the conversation directly, but advised her to eat the dessert first.

Shangguan Siqiao asked while eating, "Oh, I know what you're going to say to me."

"...Know?" Qiao Xingzhou's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing his reaction, Shangguan Siqiao smiled even more happily, "Yes, I know, do you want to say...you miss me very much?"

Qiao Xingzhou shook his head with a smile, "You always like to talk about these things."

"Because I am such a person, I like you, love you and miss you, so I have to tell the truth, there is nothing to hide." Shangguan Siqiao defended himself indifferently.

"Yes, you're right, I can't say no to you, okay?" Qiao Xingzhou patted her head, "Actually, it's nothing important, I just want to ask you, who else is in your family, and we have been together for a while Well, we don't seem to know each other's family."

Sure enough, it was for this matter, Shangguan Siqiao replied with a smile on his face, "My father is the only one in my family, and my mother passed away very early."

To her, Second Aunt and others are not family members at all, because they don't regard themselves as family members, and they want to drive her out.

"My family has my parents, a brother and a sister." Qiao Xingzhou also gave a brief introduction.

"Wow, your family must be very close to each other." Shangguan Siqiao said enviously, "I have wanted to have a healthy family since I was a child. You must be the most favored one?"

Most favored...?

It seems that the eldest brother has been very kind to him since he was a child. Before the accident, he still shouldered the responsibility of the entire group, allowing Qiao Xingzhou to live more freely.

Even though Jing Qi, the elder sister, came back to recognize her relatives later, and the two often quarreled, if something happened to him, Jing Qi would definitely be the first to jump out to help, so she could be regarded as pampering herself.

Not to mention mother Lan Rouyin, as for father...

When he was younger, he would feel that his father was too domineering.

But during this period of time, he began to have other emotions, especially watching his father grow old day by day, Qiao Xingzhou also became more and more aware of the responsibilities on his shoulders.

In the final analysis, the father's strict demands on them just hoped that they would not be eliminated by this society.

So he is the most favored one...

After all, they were so self-willed that they ran away from home for four years.

Before Qiao Xingzhou could answer, Shangguan Siqiao said happily again, "When we get married in the future, your most favored position will be taken away, and then I will be the most favored one!"

Qiao Xingzhou was startled, then laughed, "Isn't that right, my position is about to be taken away by you."

"But I'm only eighteen, and I'm not yet of legal age. You can still occupy it for two years."

"Then you grow up slowly, I can afford to wait."

Shangguan Siqiao pouted when she heard this, "Don't you want to marry me sooner?"

"Think about it." Qiao Xingzhou quickly corrected himself.

Only then did Shangguan Siqiao coax her into a happy smile, "Are you going to be very busy these days? It's okay, you don't need to take special time to accompany me. I'll just come to you when you're free, and try not to delay your work."

"Are you so sensible?"

"Of course!" Shangguan Siqiao vowed.

"Then to reward you, I will personally take you home later." Qiao Xingzhou suggested.

Shangguan Siqiao understood very well the reason why he wanted to send her home, but she still accepted it with a smile, "Okay, then I'll be selfish for once."

Qiao Xingzhou pampered her head again, and the smile deepened at the corner of his mouth.

After dinner, Qiao Xingzhou picked up the car and took her home personally. Shangguan Siqiao readily told her the address of his home.

It is a high-end residential area, and the price is not cheap.

Qiao Xingzhou got out of the car with Shangguan Siqiao, and they were supposed to say goodbye, but they didn't separate for a long time.

Reluctant to give up on both, Shangguan Siqiao simply said, "Why don't you... go to my house for a while?"

"Is it convenient?" Qiao Xingzhou asked worriedly.

"It's convenient. My dad is away on a business trip."

When she said this, she was very generous, without the slightest hint of restraint that a girl should have.

It is precisely because of this generosity that people will not think about it.

But Qiao Xingzhou still said, "In the future, you are not allowed to invite other men to your house like this, understand?"

"Of course I know. Just like you said, you can't knock on the door of a single man in a hotel. I remember it. I just invite you because you are different."

It is obviously an explanation, but if you have to add such a sentence at the end, it will make people feel very comfortable.

Qiao Xingzhou was even more pleased, and he had no intention of going up, so he just patted her head and said, "I won't go, it's already late, you go back and have a rest earlier, when I finish this section, Then find a suitable opportunity to visit your father in person, this is the courtesy you should have."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come." Shangguan Siqiao also agreed very readily.

The doubt in Qiao Xingzhou's heart disappeared, and he hugged Shangguan Siqiao before saying goodbye to her.

Shangguan Siqiao almost looked back three times at a step, finally entered the unit building under the watchful eye of Qiao Xingzhou, and then drove away in the car.

Not long after he left, Shangguan Siqiao turned back the same way.

Jing Zhe, who was originally hiding in the dark, also came out. After seeing Shangguan Siqiao, she said, "You really dare to invite him to go upstairs, what if he really agrees?"

"So I asked someone to buy a suite here, but I didn't have time to change the furniture. Later, I will let Rulan arrange it to avoid such emergencies." Shangguan Siqiao said confidently, "Besides, Based on what I know about Qiao Xingzhou, even if I invite him, he won't go up."

"Okay, it's a false alarm." Jing Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't forget to remind her, "But you have to remember, paper can't cover fire, and it's not a good idea to continue to hide it like this. You will know one day, you should find a chance to explain it to him.”

In fact, Shangguan Siqiao didn't want to make it clear to him as soon as possible, but she had never felt safe about this relationship, and always felt that Qiao Xingzhou would leave her at any time.

She couldn't bear the blow of losing, so she could only use one lie after another to maintain such a relationship.

But how long it can last, Shangguan Siqiao himself has no idea.

***
As the year approaches, the festive atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger.

After the last lesson, Shangguan Siyu became very quiet.

Even if she met Shangguan Siqiao at Shangguan's house, she was submissive and never dared to show any dissatisfaction.

Even the second aunt was respectful when she saw her.

In this way, the Shangguan family became much more harmonious.

Shangguan Heng was also very happy, and ordered to go down and say that this year he will have a very lively Spring Festival at home.

Shangguan Siqiao, who didn't have the Spring Festival, was not very interested. She was paying attention to Qiao Xingzhou's situation every day.

After he took charge of Qiao's Group, he encountered a lot of troubles, big and small, and was so busy that the two of them met less and less often.

But no matter how busy he is, Shangguan Siqiao will wait until he falls asleep to make a phone call or video call with him.

Many times she was still talking, and Qiao Xingzhou had already fallen asleep.

Every time at this time, Shangguan Siqiao would calm down, silently watching him fall asleep and listening to his slight breathing, as if he was accompanying her.

Sometimes the connection lasted all night, and when Qiao Xingzhou got up to go to work in the morning, she was still asleep, and Qiao Xingzhou would watch silently for a while before hanging up and going to work.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between the two.

Although they didn't get along day and night, it didn't have much impact on their relationship.

Qiao Baiyu's condition gradually stabilized and he could be discharged from the hospital, but the doctor still advised him to go home and recuperate.

After discussion, the members of the Qiao family decided to temporarily extend the time for Qiao Xingzhou to represent the Qiao Group.

Qiao Xingzhou has no objection to this, and he is more and more familiar with handling things now.

It's just that Qiao Xingzhou's own career has become infinitely postponed. Fortunately, his manager Ning Shuangning understood it very well and did not urge him.

Anyway, Qiao Xingzhou still has a few movies and TV series to be broadcast in his hands, and there is still a variety show that is not online yet.

Speaking of variety shows, Shangguan Siqiao got the teaser of the leading film, and after seeing it, he was very happy to share it with Qiao Xingzhou.

After being edited by the program group, the program looked lively and interesting, and both of them were very photogenic, making them an eye-catching and sweet couple.

Shangguan Siqiao herself would blush and shy when she watched it, and she thought it was good to have this variety show. At least it recorded the sweet moments between them. When they are together for a long time in the future, watching these will definitely be full of emotions of.

The day before the Spring Festival is Saturday, which is also the day the two agreed to meet.

Shangguan Siqiao had been waiting a long time ago, and even dressed up specially.

But when it was time, Qiao Xingzhou called and told her that he was going to a banquet today, so he couldn't pick her up. After he finished the banquet, he would go directly to the place where he was dating to find her, and let her go and play first.

Qiao Xingzhou has always disliked attending all kinds of celebrity banquets, but now that he is the acting chairman of the Qiao Group, there are naturally some banquets that he cannot shirk, so he can only go there in person.

But most of the time, I went to give gifts, said hello, and then left.

Shangguan Siqiao agreed, and Qiao Xingzhou asked the driver to take him to the banquet.

The person who hosted the banquet was Mr. Yu, who had once been kind to Qiao's family.

Mr. Yu has a very high prestige in this city, and many famous and powerful people will come to celebrate his birthday in person on the spot.

The gift was prepared by Qiao Baiyu early on, and Qiao Xingzhou also specially told Qiao Xingzhou that he must congratulate Mr. Yu on his birthday in person.

Qiao Xingzhou handed the gift to Mr. Yu face to face, and said some words of blessing as his father asked.

Mr. Yu admired Qiao Xingzhou very much, so he pulled him to exchange some pleasantries, "I have heard that Qiao Baiyu has a very good son, and it is true when I saw him today. I have heard a lot about you recently. You are not bad, come on. I like you very much."

Qiao Xingzhou thanked Mr. Yu, and was about to say goodbye and leave when Wang Zai appeared with a wine glass and greeted him.

After the last farewell, they haven't seen each other for a long time, and they didn't expect to meet at Lao Yu's banquet.

"Your boy has been very popular recently. People in our Out of Control Club are talking about you, saying that you are now a successful businessman, and saying that you don't leave a way for the brothers to survive at all." Wang Zai complained about him severely.
