Ms. Luo was dissatisfied with Qiao Xi poking her spine like this: "There is nothing to tell outsiders about the matter between me and your father, so don't ask."

Since she thought so, Qiao Xi didn't want to mention it anymore.After dinner, after he gave her the gift he brought from Japan, he wanted to go back.

Qiao Xi brought Ms. Luo several sets of skin care products suitable for her. Although Ms. Luo was rich and famous, she was not free and had no time to take care of her own skin care. Instead, her son took care of it for her.

Of course, Qiao Xi has long hair, and she has nothing to do with him.

Now the two mothers and sons have achieved "respect for each other" and don't ask too much about each other's affairs.

When he wanted to leave, Professor Jiang tried to persuade him to stay, and even Yaoyao hugged his leg to prevent him from leaving: "Brother, sleep with me."

Qiao Xi touched his tender face, and teased him, "I'll sleep with you again when you stop wetting the bed."

Yaoyao said innocently with a bitter face, "I don't wet the bed anymore."

Qiao Xi smiled at him, said goodbye to his family, and drove away.

Qiao Xi is used to living alone, maybe since he was born, he has been alone, and there is another person to form a family with him, and the whole family is together, but he is not used to it and does not like it.

Especially if there are relatives like Ms. Huang, life will be even more annoying.

Within a few days, the matter of Ms. Huang was settled. The underground casino she went to gamble was found and sealed up by the police. Everyone in the casino was arrested. Ms. Huang was also in the casino at the time, so she was also arrested. .

I don't know if Professor Jiang begged Ms. Luo. Ms. Huang was released on bail after entering, but was sent to work in Hainan Island. There is a beverage factory run by Ms. Luo. She arranged for Ms. Huang to work there.Ms. Huang is a person with a fierce personality, but this time she was probably taught a lesson severely, and she did not dare to be stubborn, so she obediently left City S and went to Hainan.

Ms. Huang's son, Wang Xian, was taken to Jiang's family by Professor Jiang. He is now 17 years old, in his third year of high school, and will go to college in half a year.

Ms. Luo said that he would live in Jiang's house until he went to college.

When Qiao Xi learned about this, her mood was complicated. Although his mother treated Professor Jiang harshly, she always relied on him and thought of him in her heart. If she could have such a soft heart for her father back then, Qiao Xi would not Know whether the situation at home will be better, and whether my father will be able to live longer.

But this was the grievance of the previous generation, and it was useless for him to think about it, so he didn't think much about it afterwards.

Lu Donglin's engagement banquet was held on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and he asked his servant to send invitations to Qiao Xi, and then called Qiao Xi himself to ask if he could spare time to attend, and said: "It's just an engagement, not a big deal Do it, only some relatives and friends will be present, if you want to come, you don’t need to pack a red envelope, no gift money will be accepted for this engagement.”

When Qiao Xi received the call, he had just listened to the year-end summary of a company he invested in and would go home. The growth momentum of this company in the past two years has been very good, but it has just achieved some results. Xi had to make some other plans because of this, and he was not in a good mood. Hearing Lu Donglin's call at this time, his mood became even worse.

But the vice president of the company sat next to him, and he didn't want to show too bad mood, so he just said: "I will arrange a time to go there, don't worry."

Lu Donglin smiled and said, "It's better to come here early, it's lively and lively."

Qiao Xi said weakly, "Okay, I'll hang up first."

Regardless of whether Lu Donglin had anything to say, he immediately hung up the phone.

Seeing him like this, Ouyang Shen, the vice president, knew that it was Pengcheng Education that made him dissatisfied, so he said: "Pengcheng plans to go public in the next year or two, but the prospect is actually pretty good."

Qiao Xi has a very emotional side in his personality, but he has always been very rational when facing work. He sighed: "Didn't you find that the relationship between Hu Liang and Cha Pingyan is very stiff? I think if the relationship between the two is If it continues to deteriorate, don’t even think about going public, besides, I’m optimistic about its continued development.”

Pengcheng Education started as a husband-and-wife shop, a training institution run by Hu Liang and Cha Pingyan, but now, thanks to the capital injection from Qiao Xi and two other shareholders, this training institution has grown into a very large one. It became a training school.

There are not only training courses for various subjects in elementary school, junior high school and high school, but also special full-time college entrance examination cram schools.

This cram school for the college entrance examination is to recruit repeat students who failed the college entrance examination. The fees are very high. The students are managed militarized in the school. In the first year of operation, the grades are outstanding. Almost every student in the college entrance examination has increased by tens of points compared with before. , There was even a student who gained more than 200 points and was admitted to Tsinghua University. This has become a living sign of this school, and the enrollment has increased every year since then.

In addition, this educational institution is still planning to open an all-boarding private primary school, junior high school and high school. This is supported by Qiao Xi. He even selected the school site for this purpose and even bought the land. He just needs to wait for further financing before the construction can be completed. this school.

Ouyang Shen hesitated and said: "Mom-and-pop stores have these risks. Why not bring it up at the board meeting later, let the two of them write a marital agreement to divide shares and dividends, and don't affect the development of the company because of their private affairs."

Qiao Xi supported his head, his hair slid down to block his sight, he couldn't help brushing his hair, tucking the strands behind his ears, and said, "That's what I mean, otherwise, I'll have to think of other ways."

Ouyang Shen asked: "Mr. Qiao, what do you mean?"

Qiao Xi said: "Hu Liang is too ambitious. After the development of Pengcheng Education, he became more impetuous. He is not a down-to-earth person. I was not at ease with this kind of person at the helm. On the contrary, Cha Yanyan can do things calmly. People, I talked to several senior teachers today, and everyone is more convinced by Cha Pingyan. After all, I have invested more than 1000 million. Although it is not a lot of money, I can't let the money go to waste. If the relationship between the two is no longer good, It's better for the two to divorce as soon as possible, and we will kick Hu Liang out. I am optimistic about this school and have long-term plans. It doesn't matter if it goes public or not in recent years."

Although Ouyang Shen's relationship with Hu Liang is better than that of Cha Pingyan, but in business talk, he said: "Then I will go to check on the two people separately later."

Qiao Xi nodded: "Well, I will leave this matter to you. When there is a result, I will contact Cheng Zong and the others. They must have the same meaning as me."

When it comes to Chinese New Year, Qiao Xi can't be idle, he is so busy with company affairs, and when the Spring Festival comes, he will go to City B to attend Qiao's party.

Because the uncles are very busy with things, until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the uncles are not free, so only the eldest grandson Qiao Mingduan took people back to his hometown to worship the ancestors.

The ancestral home of the Qiao family is County P, which is adjacent to City S. The Qiao family has built a large house surrounded by high walls in P county, which does not show the mountains and dew, and there is the Qiao family's ancestral hall inside.

To make preparations for ancestor worship, Qiao Mingduan, Young Master Qiao and Qiao Xi returned to City S from City B on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Although the Qiao family's ancestral house was built in a low-key and luxurious way, it was too deserted. Qiao Mingduan checked the preparations at the ancestral house After that, I will go back to S city to live that night.

There are several courtyards built in the ancestral house, and the second room of the Qiao family has a special courtyard.Qiao Xi's company headquarters is in City S. He has always loved living in City S. Sometimes he doesn't want to stay in the city, but he will go back to his ancestral house for two nights, which is quieter.

Qiao Ming wanted to leave, but Qiao Xi didn't want to.

Qiao Mingduan had no choice but to go to Qiao Xi's room to call him. The mansion was too big, and there were only two lanes in it. To go to Qiao Xi's house, there was no driveway. Qiao Mingduan had to walk there. It took four or five minutes to get there .

Pushing open the door, the room with floor heating and air-conditioning turned on was warm and warm, and the blowing heat made Qiao Ming frowned.

Although the house is decorated with a combination of Chinese and Western styles, it is mainly Chinese style and supplemented by Western style.

Qiao Mingduan entered the room, walked around the screen, and saw Qiao Xi lying on the couch in the inner room, with his long hair draped all over his body and the couch, so that his face could not be seen, and he was wearing a loose Tai Chi robe, It's like a female ghost.

Qiao Mingduan stared at him for a minute, but he didn't respond.He really couldn't understand this cousin, whether he wanted to become a fairy or something.

Qiao Mingduan went over and slapped Qiao Xi on the back. Qiao Xi then raised his head, glanced at him, and his eyes brightened: "Brother, what's the matter? Why haven't you left yet?"

Qiao Mingduan frowned and said, "I haven't stayed in City S much before. What's the fun in going back to the city alone? You are the landlord here, so you should entertain me anyway."

Qiao Xi got up from the prone position, brushed her hair, sat down cross-legged and looked at him, with an expression I didn't want to move, and said, "You are the eldest grandson of the Qiao family, the landlord here, Why am I a landlord? If you want to play in S City, just ask anyone to take you with you."

Qiao Mingduan said: "If you want to go out to play, how can you let someone else take you? It's fine if the old man finds out. Get up quickly, we're going back to the city. I'll stay with you tonight too, not the mansion."

The so-called big house refers to the house of Qiao's family in S city, which is a complex of several villas.

Due to his limited status, Qiao Mingduan basically has no movable or real property under his name, but he can live wherever he wants. Qiao Xi really doesn't understand why he insists on dragging himself.

Although the two are cousins, because they didn't grow up together, and they basically didn't have any intersection during their growth, the relationship is really not that close.

Of course, there is still a difference between blood-related relatives and outsiders. Qiao Mingduan will naturally trust Qiao Xi more.

Qiao Xi got off the couch bitterly, pulled off her slippers, and said to Qiao Mingduan, "Brother, wait for me, I'll change clothes."

There is a floor-to-ceiling cover inside, which is the bedroom. Although it is decorated in Chinese style, the other bedrooms are all equipped with Western-style beds. Qiao Mingduan took a look at Qiao Xi's bedroom and found that it was actually a Chinese-style canopy bed.

Qiao Mingduan said with great interest: "You have quite a realm here. I remember sleeping on a canopy bed before my grandparents passed away. This kind of bed is still inconvenient."

Qiao Xi said while undressing: "There is nothing inconvenient about this kind of bed. Put down the bed curtain, and the inside will become a world of its own. On the contrary, it is better to maintain privacy and sleep more securely."

Qiao Ming smiled: "It's inconvenient for two people to sleep. If the person inside wants to get up, isn't it going to disturb the person outside? And now that technology is so advanced, if you want to pry into privacy, you can cover it with a bed curtain."

Qiao Xi didn't want to discuss this issue in depth. He took off his Taoist robe, his upper body was bare, his skin was white, his body had a thin layer of muscles, his abdominal muscles were tight, his waist was narrow, and he had a rare good figure.

Qiao Mingduan couldn't help being surprised: "I didn't expect you to have abdominal muscles."

Qiao Xi glanced back at him, said while putting on his shirt, "I practice Chen style Tai Chi all the time."

Qiao Mingduan said: "Your temperament is similar to that of the old man, and you are more like his son. When he has time, he either practices Tai Chi or teases cats and dogs."

Qiao Xi said: "I don't dare to compare with uncle, and I don't like teasing cats and dogs."

Qiao Ming laughed, and waited until Qiao Xi put on a sweater and changed his pants before going out with him, and asked him, "Where are you going to pass the time tonight?"

Qiao Xi knew that Qiao Mingduan was tense all the time in City B, and he didn't dare to make a mistake. He came to City S just to relax, and he said, "Actually, I prefer to stay in the ancestral house in a daze when I have time. I'm not very clear about the places to play in S City. However, if you want to play, I can ask someone to introduce the safest place, brother, what kind of play do you want?"
