After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

"Am I heavy?" Qiao Xing asked.

She was afraid of tiring Qin Ce, and she was also worried that he would dislike her because she was fat.

"not heavy."

He really cherished his words like gold. Qiao Xing turned to press the door lock, opened the door, and he carried her into the house.

Qiao Xing hugged his neck and said, "Am I really not heavy?"

"Are you tired? Why don't you let me down? We're home."

Qin Ce didn't say anything and just changed his shoes.

Qiao Xing looked at his expressionless face, was silent for a while, and then suddenly called him: "Husband."

Qin Ce was stunned and glanced sideways at her.

Qiao Xing whispered again: "Thank you."

Qin Ce's face looked a little weird, which made Qiao Xing a little embarrassed. He had forced her to call her husband before, so why did she react when she heard the word husband?

Qin Ce raised his chin and motioned for her to look back.

Qiao Xing noticed something and turned to look over.

A room of people.

Joey, Xueling, Wang Qin and Lin Xi, Qin Yi, and the old man are all here.

Everyone is looking at her.

There was a buzz in Qiao Xing's head, as if someone had hit her hard with a stick, and heat surged up in an instant, burning her entire face red.

If there was a hole, she would dive into it without hesitation.

Qiao Xing struggled to get off Qin Ce, and when her ankle touched the ground, she felt a heartbreaking pain. She screamed in pain and threw herself down again.

Fortunately, Qin Ce had quick eyesight and quick hands. He picked her up and hugged her again, "I told you not to move."

Qiao Xing's face was so red that she could bleed. She only had one thought now, that was to die and quickly change her life on another planet...

She didn't dare to look at the faces of the people in the room, so she lowered her head and pretended to be dead.

Qin Ce put her on the sofa and looked at her feet. There were several holes in her socks, and her toes came out of the holes.

"I'll get you some water. Sit down and don't move."

With that said, he went to the bathroom, leaving Qiao Xing alone in the living room.

The old man was the first to come to his senses. He coughed and asked, "Xingxing, are you okay?"

Qiao Xing shook his head, "My grandpa is fine, I made you worry."

"Silly boy, we are a family, shouldn't we be worried about you?"

Joey said: "Dad, since Xingxing is fine, you should go and rest early. It's already so late."

The old man said: "Why don't you sleep? It's almost dawn. I'll go back when it gets dawn."

Qin Yi immediately disagreed. He frowned and said: "Grandpa, you are so old, and you still compare with us young people? Listen to mom and go to bed quickly!"

The old man's temper also got worse. He used his crutches and said with a straight face: "How old am I!? Can I die if I don't sleep all night?"

"You..." Qin Yi couldn't do anything to him. This old man was really stubborn.

Joey said: "Dad, if you don't sleep, Cece and Xingxing are still sleeping. Should you let them sit with you?"

These words had an effect on the old man. He glanced at Qiao Xing and thought of the two people's tired looks just now. He felt that the young couple probably had something important to do and didn't want to be disturbed.

Thinking of this, the old man nodded and said, "Xingxing, you guys should go to bed early in a while. Grandpa, I won't disturb you anymore."

The old man stood up and said to Qin Yi: "Xiao Yi, let's go back."

With so many people here, the room would definitely not be able to sleep in. It was the best arrangement for Qin Yi to send him back.

Qin Yi nodded, it wasn't far anyway, "Okay."

After they left, Wang Qin also pulled Lin Xi up. She said sarcastically: "The in-laws, Xingxing, we will go back first."

Joey quickly greeted: "Just stay here, there is a room, it's already four or five o'clock, how can you go back?"

"I, let's just take a taxi, I won't bother you here."

Qiao Xing raised his head and glanced at Wang Qin, and suddenly said: "Isn't tomorrow the weekend? Will you take Xiaoxi back and send her back in two hours?"

Wang Qin was also stunned. What she said was on point. She looked at Lin Xi and then at Qiao Xing.

She didn't want to cause trouble to Qiao Xing, and she also knew that Qiao Xing didn't want to see her, so she couldn't make up her mind for a while.

Seeing this attitude, Joey quickly urged Xue Ling and go back to the house to sleep. Xue Ling had just been discharged from the hospital and asked her to sleep here, so she had to sit here with her.

Qin Ce also took out a basin of water and put it in front of Qiao Xing. Just as he was about to take off her socks, Qiao Xing hurriedly stopped him.

"I'll do it myself."

Qin Ce paused. Seeing her firm attitude, he didn't say anything. "Then you wash up, and I'll buy a drink."

With that said, he took the car keys and went out.

The room fell silent.

Qiao Xing was not in a hurry to wash her feet. She looked up at Wang Qin's weather-beaten face, and her expression was a bit complicated.

After a while, she said: "Go to sleep in the innermost room."

"I can just sleep on the sofa... I have to leave work in a hurry and I haven't changed my clothes yet."

Qiao Xing moved his gaze elsewhere, was silent for a moment, and then looked at Wang Qin, "Do you want others to think that I treat you harshly?"

Wang Qin waved her hands repeatedly, "I didn't mean that, I just..."

Wang Qin was halfway through speaking. When she saw Qiao Xing's eyes, she swallowed her words again, "Then I'll take Xiao Xi to bed."

Qiao Xing didn't speak anymore, and Wang Qin didn't continue to make trouble for herself. She took Lin Xi to the room inside.

When only Qiao Xing was left in the living room, she let out a breath. She was used to the days when no one cared about her, but suddenly so many people surrounded her and cared about her.

In fact, she was very uncomfortable with it.

Qiao Xing took off his rotten socks and put his feet in the basin. He was still scared as he thought about what happened today.

Then she thought about whether Lin Yu would come to see her next time, which made her anxious.

When Qin Ce came back, she took Qin Ce's arm and said, "Qin Ce, let's call the police quickly. That Lin Yu killed Fang Ya!"

Qin Ce was stunned for a moment, "Kill?"

Qiao Xing nodded vigorously, "Yes, he told me himself today, and he today..."

Qiao Xing finally came to his senses. Qin Ce went to the police station to check the surveillance, so he should have called the police.

Qin Ce unscrewed the cap of the wine bottle and said, "He has been arrested, don't worry."

"That's good." Qiao Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt that Lin Yu was so stupid. He had done such a big thing, but was caught when he came back. What was he trying to do?

But having said that, if Lin Yu was really smart, he wouldn't still be a clerk now.

So how could he handle this kind of crime flawlessly.

His various behaviors felt like child's play.

Qin Ce picked up her feet and put them on his lap, "It might hurt a little, please bear with it."

Her feet were so swollen that they were all red and almost as thick as her calves.

Qiao Xing nodded, "Yeah."

So Qin Ce poured wine into his palm and placed his palm on her ankle.

"what--"

Qiao Xing immediately covered his mouth, swallowed back the pain in his mouth, and looked at Qin Ce with a blushing face.

Qin Ce felt helpless when he saw the tears in the corners of her eyes, but he didn't even try hard yet.
