296, staying in a hotel at about ten o'clock in the morning, she sat down to read a book, the butler came in from the outside, holding a package two palms in his hand, and walked towards her, "Ma'am, someone from outside delivered a package for you just now. .”

Qiao Mosheng frowned, "Express? I didn't buy anything online."

After all, she glanced at the sender's address and the information column. There was no detailed description of who the sender was, but the address was in San Francisco, USA.

If she remembered correctly, before returning to China, Liu Zi lived in San Francisco, USA.

"This... are you sure it's for me?"

Qiao Mosheng glanced at the recipient, as if, it was really for her.

The housekeeper understood his thoughts, and said with a smile: "It should be something that the old lady asked someone to send to you in San Francisco."

While talking, the butler had already brought scissors to Qiao Mosheng.

"Mum gave it to me?"

Qiao Mosheng couldn't think of what Liu Zi would give her.

But thinking that Liu Zi gave it to her, her heart would be full of surprises and expectations.

Liu Zi will give her something, perhaps, it really means that she has recognized her.

So, how could she not be surprised?

Inside the express mail was a round brocade box, about the size of a palm.

Open the brocade box, inside is a golden bracelet.

"This……"

Qiao Mosheng thought that if Liu Zi wanted to give her something, it must be something more expensive, but she didn't expect that it would be so beautiful.

It has exceeded her imagination.

The golden bracelet is carved with delicate and exquisite patterns, which are lifelike and beautiful. At the same time, it is also inlaid with many rubies of different sizes and shapes, dark green jade, and white diamonds. The particles of these are not too big. It is only one-tenth the size of an index finger nail, and it is very beautiful.

"so beautiful."

Qiao Mosheng couldn't help exclaiming.

When the butler saw the bracelet, he was also taken aback, but he quickly laughed.

When he saw this bracelet, he knew that Liu Zi had really accepted her as his daughter-in-law.

For this reason, he was happy for Qiao Mosheng, and couldn't help but said to her: "This, I heard that this is the dowry given to her by the old lady's mother. The old lady is the only daughter of the Liu family, and everyone in the family loves her very much. This bracelet caused a sensation in the capital at that time, madam, it seems that the old madam agrees with you."

When Qiao Mosheng heard this, his heart skipped a beat, "Mom, did you give me such an important thing?"

There are too many, and it is inconvenient for the housekeeper to say too much, after all, this gift was given to her by Liu Zi.

What Liu Zi wants to express is for her to say, maybe it will be better.

Qiao Mosheng carefully held the bracelet in her hand, and before thanking Liu Zi, she didn't want to put it on her hand rashly, so she put it back.

Liu Zi was still in the room, Qiao Mosheng held the box and went up to find Liu Zi, wanting to thank her personally.

Knocking on Liu Zi's door, Liu Zi came out of the room quickly. Seeing Qiao Mosheng looking at her joyfully, shyly, and thankfully, her reaction was very cold, "Why? You don't even wear it if you give it to you." ,dislike?"

Although her words were ugly, Qiao Mosheng could tell, she wanted to ask her to try it and show her to wear it.

"No, it's so beautiful, why don't you like it, I like it so much, Mom, thank you." After speaking, Qiao Mosheng walked over embarrassedly and gave Liu Zi a hug.

Liu Zi's body stiffened slightly.

Qiao Mosheng let her go with a smile, his eyes were slightly red: "Mom, thank you very much, thank you for recognizing me."

"Go back if you have nothing to do, don't disturb my rest."

"Okay, then you have a good rest." After finishing speaking, she told her about the man's whereabouts, "By the way, Mom, brother is on a business trip at noon today, and he won't be back until two days later. If you want to miss him, give him Send a few more messages, and he will read it."

Liu Zi was silent and closed the door.

To get Liu Zi's approval, this was really a pleasant surprise to Qiao Mosheng.

Qiao Mosheng hurriedly called the man to share his joy with him.

If the man knows, he should be very happy too.

It's just that she called the man's phone number. Although the call got through, the man didn't answer.

Qiao Mosheng frowned, at this moment, the man should be on his way to the airport, because the man's flight is after [-]:[-] noon, why didn't he answer the phone?

However, thinking that he might have something to do, Qiao Mosheng hung up the phone without thinking too much.

Jiang Cheng looked at the caller ID with the word "Momo" written on it, but didn't answer it.

Together with him, Su Qun was standing outside the corridor waiting for Jian Shenyang. When he heard the vibrating sound of his mobile phone, he also came over and took a look.

Jian Shenyang's cell phone is set to vibrate mode, which is not noisy, so even if the cell phone is allowed to continue ringing without answering it, it will not appear very noisy.

Half an hour later, Jian Shenyang came out from the inside, and Jiang Cheng could see his face, which seemed to be much paler.

He paused, but he couldn't express those thoughts in his mind, he just returned his mobile phone: "Sir, Madam called you just now."

The man silently took the mobile phone Jiang Cheng handed over, looked at the incoming call with Qiao Mosheng, and squeezed the mobile phone with his hand, which turned slightly white.

However, he looked at the two words written on it, but he didn't move for a long time.

Jiang Cheng and Su Qun both stood on one side, their eyes lowered.

After a while, Jian Shenyang took a step, turned around and left, but he didn't call back, but put the phone back in his pocket. Su Qun and Jiang Cheng saw it, and they were actually very surprised, because if it was the usual Jian Shenyang, he would have replied to Qiao Mosheng a long time ago. The phone is up.

Jiang Cheng and Su Qun hurriedly followed, but Jian Shenyang didn't look back, but he knew that the two of them were following, and said coldly, "Don't follow."

Su Qun frowned. No matter how low his EQ was, he could still feel that something was wrong with Jian Shenyang's mood. He was a little worried and wanted to follow, but Jiang Cheng stopped him, "Forget it, let Mr. calm down, he must be in his heart right now. It's messy."

"I don't believe it!" Su Qun gritted his teeth. Although he had known the news for two days, he still couldn't accept it. "Mr.'s body has been in good condition until now. How could there be cancer? I don't believe it." !"

"I've checked it twice, there's no way it's wrong, you should already know it in your heart."

At this time, Jiang Cheng was relatively calmer than Su Qun. Although Su Qun usually looked indifferent, at this time, he was the most unacceptable and reacted more than Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng continued: "Let's not interfere with Mr., let him think about it for himself. He still has a lot of things to explain clearly. Some things...he still can't make a decision by himself. We just need to cooperate with Mr. and follow his instructions. If you want to do it, let him have less worries about the future, that's fine."

"But……"

"Let's go."

Jiang Cheng patted him on the shoulder, and walked away with Su Qun.

At this time, the company has a lot of things to do, and Jian Shenyang has presided over several meetings in the company.

He was very busy, as if he wanted to use his busyness to forget things that he didn't want to think about.

In Jiang Cheng's eyes, Jian Shenyang has always done things in an orderly manner, even now, he is incredibly calm and self-sustaining, and no one else can see any traces of it, but Jiang Cheng is not very relieved.

Because Jian Shenyang looked too calm.

Although he is used to being calm, this is not a good thing.

Seeing that he continued to work without much rest today, Jiang Cheng really wanted to talk to him to persuade him, but he still didn't say it when the words came to his lips.

In fact, Jian Shenyang still has a lot of things to be busy with. He actually needs to travel recently, but when Jiang Cheng was arranging the itinerary, he pushed away these business trips.

Jian Shenyang's cell phone has never been turned off. As far as Jiang Cheng knows, his cell phone has rang several times today.

But his boss never answered the phone.

His mobile phone is his personal mobile phone, and there are not many phone numbers stored in it, which can be counted with five fingers.

So, whoever called him, and seeing that every time Jian Shenyang's cell phone rang, the expression on Jian Shenyang's cold and silent face became softer but also complicated, he had already guessed who the caller was up.

When it was almost time to get off work, Jiang Cheng brought in a stack of documents to Jian Shenyang.

I found that he had stopped and was no longer busy, but he was sitting on the office chair, motionless, with his chin propped up, looking at the French windows, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jiang Cheng put down the document in his hand, and reminded the man, "Sir, it's almost five o'clock."

He was reminding him that it was time to get off work.

But the man didn't move.

Jiang Cheng stopped talking, got up and left.

Not long after Jiang Cheng left, the sky began to darken, and then gradually changed from gray to pitch black.

The November weather, with the exception of last night, seemed to be abysmal.

After nightfall, it began to rain.

Knowing that he didn't leave, Jiang Cheng and Su Qun didn't leave either. After six o'clock, they brought him food that was suitable for him at this time outside, brought him in, and then walked out again.

The man had no appetite, but when the food was brought in, he didn't stop eating.

Jiang Cheng, who was about to close the office door, saw it and became less worried.

"Dududu-"

Before the man had finished his meal, the phone rang again.

The man stopped eating in an instant, but he didn't answer the call, so he held the phone in his palm and looked at the caller ID of the phone.

The phone rang twice, but when no one answered, it fell silent, just like before.

His phone would ring every once in a while, but the man didn't answer it, but, after nine o'clock in the evening, the phone didn't ring for a long time.

At this time, Jiang Cheng walked in with his mobile phone. He was about to talk to the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, but he didn't know what the man thought. He came back suddenly, picked up the phone and pressed it. His hand holding the phone He was a little trembling, but he pressed it a few times, and after there was no response, he realized that the phone was out of battery.

Jiang Cheng stood at the door, did not come in, lowered his head, and did not speak.

After charging, the man picked up his phone and made the first call of the day.

The person on the other side of the phone almost cried with joy after answering the phone, "Brother!"

"I'm here."

When the man dialed the phone, his hands were trembling for some reason, but after hearing her voice, it was as if his illness had been cured by medicine, and he quickly returned to his original appearance, his tense jaw, He also relaxed, his face softened.

But hearing the choking in her voice, his thin lips were drawn into a line, "What's wrong?"

"I... called you many times, but you didn't answer, and you didn't reply. I don't know what happened to you. I was a little worried, but I'm fine now."

Qiao Mosheng originally wanted to tell the man about Liu Zi giving her a gift today, but he called the man several times, but he didn't answer. She didn't care at first, but at night, she still didn't answer. Just worry.

She didn't know why, but since this afternoon, she felt inexplicable palpitations and chest tightness, and suddenly her heart was full of worries about him.

It was a strange feeling, something she had never felt before.

Now, after receiving his call and hearing his voice, the emptiness but heavy heart palpitations disappeared, and her mood improved a lot.

"I am fine."

"Well, as long as you're fine, I...I just don't know why, I feel chest tightness today, and I'm worried about you for no reason."

After Qiao Mosheng finished speaking, she felt that it was not good to tell the man about it, and worried that he would worry about her when he was away from home. Before the man could speak, she shook her head, her eyes also curled up, and quickly changed the subject, asking him: "Brother, Where are you going on a business trip today? Are you busy? You don't even have time to answer my calls. "

In the past, when a man was on a business trip, he would call her when he got off the plane.

She started calling him at three or four o'clock this afternoon, and she was able to get through all the time, which meant that he was actually not on the plane and got off the plane.

But the man didn't call her at that time, but only now, so she thought he should be very busy.

Hearing what she said earlier, the man tightened his grip on the phone.

But he was silent, and at the end of her speech, he just responded with one word, "En."

Qiao Mosheng didn't think too much, after all, men are always very quiet, so he started laughing at Mimi and told him about Liu Zi giving her the bracelet.

The man's eyes were gentle, but he didn't say a word.

"Brother? Are you still busy now?"

It's not wrong for a man to talk less, but she was so elated, even excited, that a man didn't say a word, which is rare recently.

Therefore, Qiao Mosheng frowned.

All she could think of was that it was inconvenient for the man to say too much to her now, "Then, shall I hang up first?"

Hearing her crisp and pleasant voice full of smiles just now, the man loosened his hand holding the phone, but now he clenches it tightly again when he hears her words.

"Big brother?"

As for the question of whether to hang up or not, the man took so long to answer her, and Qiao Mosheng felt that something was getting worse.

"I'm going on a business trip for about a week."

The man suddenly said such a sentence.

"Huh? A week?"

Although the time of the man's business trip was longer than this before, Qiao Mosheng was a little disappointed when he heard that two days had turned into one week.

Moreover, from the man's tone, it seems that a week is a certain time to return the stomach.

"Ah."

"Well, since it's a business, let's just make it a week, just pay attention to rest."

The man lowered his eyes and replied, "Well, there's still something to do, so I'll hang up first."

The two chatted for a while, and the man said that he was going to hang up the phone. Qiao Mosheng was very reluctant, but the man was busy with work, and he didn't want to disturb him too much, so he just replied: "Okay, then you have a good rest—"

When the man was talking, he hung up the phone first, before Qiao Mosheng could finish his sentence.

Qiao Mosheng looked at his hung up phone and felt a little uncomfortable.

It's been a long time, and the man hasn't hung up on her first. All along, she told him to cut off the phone early, so he would hang up.

It's really rare to see something like this today.

"Ma'am? Are you all right, sir?"

Seeing that Qiao Mosheng hung up the phone, the butler had a sad face, so he couldn't help coming over to ask.

Qiao Mosheng was worried for a long time because Jian Shenyang didn't answer the phone all day, now that Jian Shenyang called her back, she should be happy, why is she still not in a cheerful mood?

Qiao Mosheng shook his head and said with a smile, "It's okay, but he's still busy."

"Mr.'s career is too big. It is inevitable that he will be busy. Just pay attention to your health."

"En." Qiao Mosheng responded, rubbing the beginning of Xiaocan who was sleepy waiting for Jian Shenyang's news, and said softly, "Dad is fine, go back to sleep."

After speaking, she also told Liu Zi, and then went upstairs with Xiao Can.

However, after going upstairs, she thought about it, and sent two more messages to the man, telling him to rest early.

The man looked at the message she sent, and then at Jiang Cheng standing outside the door, "What's the matter?"

"Madam couldn't reach you just now, so she called me and Su Qun, because we didn't know how to tell Madam, so we didn't answer the phone, so I wanted to tell you."

The man was silent when he heard the words.

"Sir, madam seemed really worried about you just now." Jiang Cheng added.

"Go out."

Jiang Cheng left, and the man started to lose his mind again. When he came back to his senses, he saw the message from Qiao Mosheng and replied, telling him to go to bed early.

Qiao Mosheng was not asleep when he received the man's message.

The man was not at home, and the huge bedroom was empty, and she only occupied a quarter of the bedroom, so it was very empty first.

She couldn't sleep at first, but when she saw this message, her heart felt warm, and for no reason, she felt more at ease.

Then, she also replied the message back.

It's already early morning, maybe she didn't expect her to be up so late, so the man called.

When Qiao Mosheng saw the man's phone call, he couldn't help but smile, so when he got on the phone, the first thing the man heard was her laughter: "Aren't you sleeping so late?"

The man's voice was cold and hard, but Qiao Mosheng stopped in his heart, but he felt that he was concerned.

She smiled and said, "I've been lying down for a long time, I can't sleep, the room is so empty, even though you've only been away for less than a day, I miss you very much."

The man paused, his voice hoarse: "Go to bed early."

"it is good."

With the man's phone call, Qiao Mosheng fell asleep peacefully.

Half an hour later, the man arrived at his usual hotel, inserted his room card, and entered his exclusive suite.

After the man entered the room, a figure flashed at a corner more than ten meters away from the man's room. It was obviously a bit of a surprise to see him here.

It's just that she didn't go up to strike up a conversation like last time.

Time went by, and another three or four days passed.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-November, and the weather in the capital was still not much better.

However, it did not rain today.

Qiao Mosheng was bored at home alone, and today happened to be the weekend, so she was going to take Xiaocan out for a walk in the afternoon. Of course, Cheng Elegy was with them.

The man seems to be really busy these days and rarely calls back, usually she calls.

However, because the man was too busy, Qiao Mosheng didn't always call to bother him like before, but only made two or three calls a day.

Two or three calls were made when the man was resting, but there were not many opportunities for the man to pick up.

Even so, a man would answer her call at least once a day.

"Madam, young master, be careful when you go out, it's windy outside."

Before they went out, the housekeeper warned them worriedly.

"understood."

After Qiao Mosheng and Xiao Can went out, the butler picked up his mobile phone and called Jian Shenyang, telling him that Qiao Mosheng had gone out.

He did this because Jian Shenyang had told him before the business trip that if Qiao Mosheng went out, he must tell him, no matter where he went.

The housekeeper felt that Jian Shenyang did this because he was worried that Qiao Mosheng would suddenly go to him like he did a few nights ago. He was very worried, that's why he did this, so he didn't have any objections to what Jian Shenyang ordered him.

"Where did she go?"

"It is said to take a casual walk and take the young master to the aquarium to have a look, because the young master likes the aquarium."

After the housekeeper finished speaking, Jian Shenyang hung up the phone.

Because Qiao Mosheng and Xiaocan were not there, Liu Zi went out not long after they left, and she made an appointment with Zhou Xuemi today.

She and Zhou Xuemi haven't seen each other for a few days.

When Liu Zi arrived, Zhou Xuemi had also arrived.

When the two had dinner, they inevitably talked about the return trip.

Zhou Xuemi asked in confusion: "Auntie, aren't you well now? Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

Liu Zi heard her voice, "You don't want to go back?"

Zhou Xuemi lowered her eyes and nodded, "I want to play here for half a month."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Liu Zi and said, "Auntie, I see that you are living well in Mr. Jian's house now, and you don't really want to go back, do you?"

When Liu Zi opened his mouth, he sighed, "But... I will go back anyway."

"Why? Mr. Jian is your son, isn't it only natural for you to stay here?"

Liu Zi didn't mean to say much, but said vaguely: "In the United States, I still have some things to do."

Zhou Xuemi also heard it, so she didn't ask any more questions, but just said: "Well, if you decide to go back, I will go back with you."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Xuemi seemed to mention it casually: "Auntie, after these few days, your relationship with Mr. Jian should have gotten a lot closer, right? That's great."

Liu Zi said lightly: "It's just like that. He hasn't been home for a few days on a business trip, and I haven't contacted him."

Zhou Xuemi's slender eyebrows twitched slightly, and even raised the corners of her mouth, "Mr. Jian...is on a business trip? When did it happen?"

Liu Zi didn't answer, just looked at her, "Xuemi, go back to America, Auntie—"

Zhou Xuemi's eyes paused, and she said with a smile: "Auntie, I just asked this question later, it's not that I still miss Mr. Jian, you are worrying too much."

She can think about it, Liu Zi is naturally happy, "You are still young, in the future, you will find your own happiness, Shen Yang and you have no destiny."

Zhou Xuemi's smile deepened, and her tone seemed to be indifferent, "Auntie, what you want to say is that Mr. Jian and Ms. Qiao are very affectionate, right?"

Liu Zi just smiled and said nothing, but Zhou Xuemi knew that her smile had already given her a clear answer.

However, if they are really so affectionate, why does Jian Shenyang say that he is on a business trip when he is still in the capital even though he is not on a business trip?What's more, she still lives in the hotel. In the past few days, she can see Jian Shenyang go back to the hotel to rest almost every day!Moreover, they all returned very late.

After Zhou Xuemi and Liu Zi had dinner, they didn't chat for too long before they separated.

Zhou Xuemi drove the car, left the hotel, and drove the car familiarly to a high-rise building in the city center and stopped.

She has been here many times in the past few days, so she is very familiar with it.

She waited for a while, and saw a familiar car coming out of the parking lot inside.

After seeing the car driving a little farther, she followed it.

She thought the car would stop at a restaurant or the door of his partner's company, but after driving for a long time, it stopped at an aquarium.

The car stopped for a long time, and the people in the car did not get off, and the car stayed there all the time.

Zhou Xuemi didn't know what he wanted to do, so she waited here.

If it weren't for the falling car window to let her know that the man was really still in the car, she would have thought that the man had already discovered her existence and deliberately played tricks on her, so she was waiting here.

Zhou Xuemi followed him and waited for a long time. He didn't leave, and she didn't leave either. She kept wondering why he parked the car here, didn't go anywhere, and waited here.

Moreover, his lunch was also packed by the driver from the restaurant and eaten in the car...

Today is the weekend, and the aquarium is full of people coming and going.

From a long distance, she couldn't see who was coming and going in the aquarium at all. She only knew that half an hour later, his car left and went back to the company.

In the evening, the man went back to the hotel to rest as usual, but there was a person standing at the door of his dining room.

Seeing her, Jian Shenyang walked forward silently.

Zhou Xuemi didn't move away and looked at him, "Mr. Jian, I met my aunt today."

The man was silent, looked at her coldly, and motioned her to go away.

Because she blocked his door.

"Auntie told me that you are on a business trip now, but I know that you have lived here for several days."

As soon as Zhou Xuemi finished speaking, Jian Shenyang narrowed her eyes and glanced over.

Zhou Xuemi smiled, and said kindly, "Don't be nervous, Mr. Jian, I won't say anything to Auntie, please don't get me wrong. I'm just curious, because I've already been in the hotel I saw you several times, and it seems that I haven't come home these days. I just found out about you when I accidentally mentioned you with my aunt today, so I'm a little curious why you don't go home, but stay in a hotel? Is it you What happened with Miss Qiao?"

Zhou Xuemi said so much, but Jian Shenyang didn't listen to it at all, and just said to her coldly: "Have you been with me for so long? Just because you want to tell me these things?",
