Qiao Ruoqing finished half of her sentence, but the rest was still in her throat, and she felt uncomfortable.

But since Tang Lan had already changed the topic, if it was inappropriate for her to go back, she would simply not say anything and stand aside with her head down.

When Tang Lan went to the fitting room to change, Huo Jingyuan came to Qiao Ruoqing.

Qiao Ruoqing raised her eyes to look at Huo Jingyuan, but quickly lowered her head as if she was trying to avoid something.

Thinking of what happened that night, she was a little embarrassed.

Huo Jingyuan stood in front of her as if nothing had happened, and spoke in a moderate voice: "My mother has no other intentions, so don't take it to heart."

I don't know if it was her own illusion, but Qiao Ruoqing felt that Huo Jingyuan's words were actually quite gentle.

It's completely different from his decisive appearance in the mall.

"I didn't take it seriously." Qiao Ruoqing turned her head and looked at the entrance of the brand store, "Auntie was just joking, I know."

Huo Jingyuan didn't answer, just stared at her profile for a few seconds, and went to the cashier to pay.

After changing her clothes, Tang Lan came out and saw Qiao Ruoqing standing there alone, looking a little lonely, so she hurried over and grabbed her wrist, "Xiaoqing, it's getting late, it's fine for you to stay at home alone, otherwise Would you like to come to our house for dinner?"

Qiao Ruoqing was startled, "Aunt Tang, I still don't..."

Hearing that Qiao Ruoqing's words meant to refuse, Tang Lan quickly interrupted her: "Xiaoqing, think about it, how long has it been since you went to our house? Just treat it as a chat with auntie, okay? Recently you Uncle has gone out, and Xiao Jing is not at home, so Auntie is bored at home alone!"

When speaking, Tang Lan sounded pitiful.

Qiao Ruoqing pursed her lips, and finally agreed.

Tang Lan was really kind to her, and when we met again today, they invited her over to have a sit down, and it was really inappropriate for her to push back and forth.

Tang Lan immediately laughed again, "That's right, why do you say you are always so polite to Auntie? We are all family!"

While talking, her eyes wandered around Qiao Ruoqing's neck, "But Xiaoqing, you really look good wearing this scarf!"

Hearing the topic of the scarf again, Qiao Ruoqing fell silent, not knowing what to say.

After Huo Jingyuan paid the bill, he held the bag in his hand. As soon as he walked over, Tang Lan immediately took a fancy to a piece of clothing, pointed at it and asked, "Xiaojing, look at that piece of clothing, does Xiaoqing look good in it?"

Qiao Ruoqing was stunned again.

What does it mean?Is it possible to buy clothes for her?
Before she could figure out how to decline, Huo Jingyuan had already nodded and said, "Yes, it looks good."

Although there was no superfluous expression on his face and his voice sounded indifferent, Qiao Ruoqing's fingertips still trembled uncontrollably.

nice?

Huo Jingyuan said she looked good in that dress?

But she hasn't tried it yet...

"Brother Huo..."

Before Qiao Ruoqing finished speaking, Tang Lan greeted the clerk: "Miss, help me wrap that dress again."

The clerk blinked, "Madam, why don't you ask this young lady to try it first?"

Tang Lan smiled and shook her head, "No need, our Xiaoqing looks good in anything."

Qiao Ruoqing: "..."

Huo Jiang has gone out of town for the past few days and is not at home. After Qiao Ruoqing went, most of the time he and Tang Lan sat on the sofa and chatted.

After chatting for a while, Tang Lan asked about her next plan.

In this regard, Qiao Ruoqing's thoughts are very simple, "I just want to take the company back from Chen Yali's hands, and take back everything that belongs to me."

She spoke resolutely, and Tang Lan also nodded in agreement, but Tang Lan changed the subject after a while: "But a woman can't just have a job! Xiaoqing, you are a good girl, no matter what, you should find yourself a good girl." rely on."

Qiao Ruoqing's heart beat faster, and while Tang Lan wasn't paying attention, she turned her head and looked at Huo Jingyuan.

The man crossed his legs, with an open book in his hand on his knees. He looked down, looking extremely focused, and probably didn't notice the conversation here.

After only one glance, Qiao Ruoqing turned her gaze away.

She was overthinking, she and Huo Jingyuan... how could it be possible?
Just as she was thinking, the doorbell suddenly rang. Xu Wen went to open the door and came back after a while, "Madam, Master, Miss Wu is here."

"Wu Shan is here? Please come in." Tang Lan said.

Huo Jingyuan didn't move, but turned the book in his hand calmly, but Qiao Ruoqing suddenly felt a little guilty.

Last time in Huo Jingyuan's apartment, she seemed a little too aggressive, and she hasn't seen Wu Shan since then.

Did not expect to meet here today.

I don't know if he noticed something, Huo Jingyuan raised his eyebrows, looked over here, and met Qiao Ruoqing's gaze.

After being stunned for a moment, Qiao Ruoqing quickly looked back.

Just at this time, Xu Wen brought Wu Shan in.

Wu Shan originally wanted to come to Huo's house to improve her presence during her break. It would be better if she could meet Huo Jingyuan, but she didn't expect that she not only met Huo Jingyuan, but also saw Qiao Ruoqing here.

Moreover, Qiao Ruoqing and Tang Lan sat so close, they looked like a mother and daughter, very cordial.

It seemed that Tang Lan was very enthusiastic towards Qiao Ruoqing every time.

Tang Lan didn't realize this, and greeted Wu Shan with a smile, "Wu Shan, are you here? Sit down."

"Hello, Auntie." Wu Shan bowed to Tang Lan, looked around and sat down on the sofa, "Is uncle not here?"

"He's gone to another place, and he's not in Jiangcheng for a while." After answering Wu Shan's question, Tang Lan asked again: "By the way, why are you here today?"

Wu Shan glanced at Qiao Ruoqing, and then looked back after two seconds, "I wanted to visit you and uncle, but I didn't expect uncle to be at home."

Tang Lan waved her hand, "It's okay, we understand your intentions, and you really have intentions, kid."

While talking, Tang Lan kept holding Qiao Ruoqing's hand in her own. Feeling that Qiao Ruoqing seemed a little uncomfortable, she stretched out her hand and patted Huo Jingyuan's leg, "Xiaojing, it's rare for Xiaoqing to come here once." , help mom take her outside for a walk."

Huo Jingyuan closed the book obediently and stood up, "Okay."

Qiao Ruoqing was actually not too happy.

Originally, she was embarrassed when she saw Huo Jingyuan, but since she was with Tang Lan just now, that embarrassment has been weakened a lot.

But now let her go out with Huo Jingyuan alone, wouldn't it be more embarrassing?
"Aunt Tang..." Qiao Ruoqing's voice was small, begging for mercy, "It's cold outside..."

"Tie the scarf." As Huo Jingyuan said, he picked up her scarf from the side and put it around her neck. After winding it loosely for a few times, he tied a simple knot and squeezed her wrist gently. He pulled the man up from the sofa with all his strength.

Qiao Ruoqing was a little at a loss, her eyes dodged in all directions, "Brother Huo..."

"Let's go for a walk." Huo Jingyuan said, pulling Qiao Ruoqing towards the door.

Qiao Ruoqing turned her head, just in time to see Tang Lan smiling into crescent eyes, and Wu Shan who was also smiling.

It's just that Wu Shan's hand on her lap seems to be retracted forcefully, and the smile on the corner of her mouth is also a bit ferocious.

Seeing Qiao Ruoqing and Huo Jingyuan go out, Tang Lan took a sip of the hot tea in front of her, "Xiaoqing is always so polite to our family."

In this tone, there is clearly unstoppable love.

Wu Shan narrowed her eyes slightly, and picked up the teacup to drink tea, speaking in a low voice, with a little tentativeness: "Auntie, have you heard about Miss Qiao?"

Upon hearing about Qiao Ruoqing, Tang Lan immediately became curious, "What's the matter?"

Wu Shan put down her teacup, and smiled a bit awkwardly, "Actually, it's not a big deal, but there are some rumors outside..."

Lowering her eyelids, she continued: "Recently, Ms. Qiao signed a contract with Yao Shi, but I heard that Yao Su, the chairman of Yao Shi, didn't see her at all and cooperated somehow, so some people speculated that there was a relationship between them. ...there may be some unusual relationship."

After Tang Lan and Huo Jiang got married, she didn't go out to work. Apart from taking care of her husband and children, she basically went out with friends to go shopping and play cards.

This kind of life seems simple, but it is said that three women play a drama, as long as there are more women, there will be more right and wrong, and the spread of right and wrong will be faster.

So these years, Tang Lan has seen a lot of things. Although they are all tricks between some women, sometimes, these things are dirtier than things in the mall.

Now hearing what Wu Shan said, she immediately understood what Wu Shan said.

"It's all just nonsense." Tang Lan put down her teacup, her expression became serious, "Xiaoqing is the child I grew up with, and I know exactly what kind of person she is."

Wu Shan lowered her eyes and didn't look at Tang Lan. She nodded quietly, but she had other thoughts in her heart.

After two seconds, she opened her mouth again: "But people outside are saying that...Auntie, isn't there a saying that says there is no wind without waves?"

Tang Lan was more serious than before, "It's just someone else's article."

She crossed her legs and leaned her back on the back of the sofa. She looked lazy, but her face was full of shrewdness, "Wu Shan, you are a smart child, so don't say such groundless words in the future." Otherwise, if others hear it, they may think that you and Xiaoqing have some issues and want to discredit her on purpose."

Wu Shan quickly raised her head, shaking her head at Tang Lan in a panic, "Auntie, I didn't mean that... What can I have with Ms. Qiao? I just think those people said too much, a little I can't see past..."

Her voice sounded a little impatient, and Tang Lan put on a smile again, "I know, I'm just talking casually, you don't have to be so nervous."

Seeing that Wu Shan was obviously relieved, she said again: "Look, I was just talking casually just now, and you also mistakenly thought that I had other opinions on you, but in fact I didn't. It can be seen that the words are still Be careful not to talk nonsense. Wu Shan, do you think I'm right?"

How dare Wu Shan refute?Can only nod again and again.

No matter what, Tang Lan was not someone she could offend.

There is floor heating indoors, and the temperature is very comfortable, but it is different outside.

It was already evening, and the wind seemed to be stronger than in the morning. Qiao Ruoqing sniffed and shrank her hands into her sleeves.

Looking from the outside, you can only see that her sleeves are empty, and you can't see her hands at all.

Looking up, Huo Jingyuan asked, "Cold?"
