Swapped with the soul of the "rival"

Zhou Ning's guess was soon confirmed. When she got home, she just took out her phone and received Qiao Yuan's WeChat message: What did you and Assistant He say?

Zhou Ning:? ? ?

Qiao Yuan: Assistant He sent a message to Xie Jingqiu just now, reminding her to be single-minded in her relationship and not to be on two boats.

Zhou Ning asked: Did she directly tell Xie Jingqiu like this?

Qiao Yuan said: Yes.

Zhou Ning suddenly admired He Li very much. This is the real assistant. He dared to control the boss's relationship, so he would be fired sooner or later^_^.

Zhou Ning flicked her hair and replied: I didn't say anything to her, maybe she misunderstood me when she saw me fighting with you.

Qiao Yuan sent a series of ellipses.

I didn't expect her to be such an assistant.

Qiao Yuan asked again: When are you going back to City C?

Zhou Ning: Go to the airport immediately.

Qiao Yuan said: Then you should be busy first, let me know when you arrive, and be careful on the way.

Zhou Ning: Got it, dear, you miss me, love you (*￣3)(e￣*)~

Qiao Yuan sent a [beating] expression in the past.

After sending the message to Zhou Ning, Qiao Yuan raised her head and casually said to Xie Jingqiu who was looking at her, "Assistant He saw me and Zhou Ning fighting, so I misunderstood."

Xie Jingqiu smiled and asked, "Is that all?"

Qiao Yuan asked in a strong tone: "Otherwise, what else could it be? Would Zhou Ning still take the initiative to tell Assistant He that she is a mistress?"

"That's not what I meant..." Xie Jingqiu wanted to explain, but didn't know where to start, "I didn't doubt what Zhou Ning meant, I knew she wasn't that kind of person..."

Qiao Yuan interrupted Xie Jingqiu: "Then you doubt me?"

"I didn't...I just..." Xie Jingqiu couldn't speak clearly, and he admitted his mistake with a sigh, "I'm sorry."

Qiao Yuan rested her forehead with her hand, but didn't speak.

After Xie Jingqiu came back in the afternoon, he suddenly received some inexplicable messages from He Li.She was confused, and asked Qiao Yuan casually with her mobile phone, "What's going on?"

Qiao Yuan didn't know what was going on, so she asked Ning Zhou next.

In fact, it is a very small matter, which can be explained clearly in a few words.But when Xie Jingqiu asked, "It's just like this?", Qiao Yuan's anger suddenly flared up.

In fact, Qiao Yuan didn't want to get angry at Xie Jingqiu, because there was nothing wrong with Xie Jingqiu's tone.But at that moment, her emotions suddenly lost control, and the questioning words came out without thinking.

So, the atmosphere was awkward.

After being quiet for a while, Xie Jingqiu changed the subject nonchalantly: "Are you hungry?"

Qiao Yuan nodded.

Xie Jingqiu said: "Then I'll cook first, how about having dumplings tonight?"

Qiao Yuan blamed herself, but couldn't say a word of apology: "Okay."

"You play with your phone first, and call me if you need anything."

Qiao Yuan said, "Got it."

After Xie Jingqiu explained everything, he turned and went to the kitchen.After she left, Qiao Yuan covered her head with the quilt in frustration, scolding herself in her heart for being unreasonable.

No matter from which point of view, Xie Jingqiu has already done enough.She had to go to work for Qiao Yuan, take care of Qiao Yuan, and clean up the mess left by Qiao Yuan.

Qiao Yuan asked herself that if the two of them switched identities, she would not be able to do what Xie Jingqiu did.

For a week at most, she might feel burnt out due to physical and mental exhaustion, and even complain to Xie Jingqiu—even if Xie Jingqiu was injured because of saving her.

Thinking about it this way, Qiao Yuan felt that she simply didn't know what to do.

But the words have already been spoken, and they cannot be taken back.She couldn't bear to apologize, so she could only accompany Xie Jingqiu to pretend to be stupid, pretending that that incident never happened.

The dumplings made by Xie Jingqiu have thin skins and lots of fillings, and they are delicious.Qiao Yuan ate more than 20 in one go, breaking the record she set in high school.

She clutched her stomach that was obviously stretched out, and said worriedly: "I eat so much every day, what's wrong with me?"

Xie Jingqiu put away the bowls and chopsticks, and said, "It's okay, I'm not fat, you can eat as much as you want."

Qiao Yuan climbed up the pole: "It's all because your cooking is so delicious."

Xie Jingqiu looked at Qiao Yuan, smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll make it for you every day from now on."

"Why do you do it every day?" Qiao Yuan avoided Xie Jingqiu's gaze and said deliberately, "If I'm married, will you still go to my house every day?"

Xie Jingqiu's smile froze for a moment, then he pretended to be calm and said, "No problem, you can invite me to be your nanny at your home."

Qiao Yuan smiled and said, "Forget it, I can't afford you."

"Well," Xie Jingqiu said with his head down, "I'm going to wash the dishes first."

While Xie Jingqiu was washing the dishes, Qiao Yuan went to the balcony to blow some wind by herself.She felt that her emotions were not right, irritable and irritable, easily worried and irritable, completely out of the control of reason.

He clearly knew that there were some things he shouldn't say, but he just couldn't help but say them.Tu said it happily for a while, but immediately regretted it, and then fell into self-loathing.

The emotional villain and the rational villain are constantly fighting, this feeling... It's like a split personality!

"Why did you come to the balcony?" Xie Jingqiu walked over and closed the balcony window, "It's windy at night, be careful not to catch a cold."

"I just want to breathe." Qiao Yuan looked up at Xie Jingqiu, her face was a little pale under the light, and she looked a little haggard.

Qiao Yuan suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, and said with concern: "Xie Jingqiu, don't be too tired."

"Why, do you love me?" Xie Jingqiu turned his head and smiled at Qiao Yuan, "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion and won't tire myself out. This is your body, I can't bear it."

Facing Xie Jingqiu's blatant provocation, Qiao Yuan fell silent.She suddenly remembered what Zhou Ning had said to her in the morning, maybe... She really should have a good chat with Xie Jingqiu?

Xie Jingqiu closed the window and moved a chair to sit with Qiao Yuan: "From this angle, the night view of City H is quite beautiful."

"En." Qiao Yuan turned her head and glanced at Xie Jingqiu, but hesitated to speak.

She wanted to ask Xie Jingqiu about what happened back then, but she was also afraid—she was afraid that Xie Jingqiu would forget about it, and she was even more afraid that Xie Jingqiu would admit it.

Qiao Yuan took a deep breath and cheered herself up in her heart: it's all in the past, and the question is just to clarify, the result is not important.Anyway, no matter how bad the facts were, it couldn't be worse than she thought before.

Having figured this out, Qiao Yuan plucked up the courage to speak: "Xie Jingqiu..."

"Yuanyuan..."

The two opened their mouths at the same time, Xie Jingqiu said with a smile: "You talk first."

Qiao Yuan hesitated: "You should talk first, what I want to say is not important."

Xie Jingqiu didn't refuse, and said hesitantly: "Yuanyuan, I don't know if my next question is appropriate. If you don't want to answer, let's skip the topic and never talk again, okay?"

Qiao Yuan was a little nervous by her serious tone, and nodded seriously.

Xie Jingqiu tilted his head and thought about his words for a while: "It's like this. I went to your house with Qiqi before, and my aunt brought a few photo albums for Qiqi to read. After packing up, I had nothing to do, so I followed along and read them together. I didn't mean to spy on anything, but... I'm curious, you know."

Qiao Yuan nodded and asked her, "And then?"

"Then I saw," Xie Jingqiu kept gesticulating in the air, "the photo of your freshman year was dated 2009."

Xie Jingqiu didn't fully explain, but Qiao Yuan understood what she meant.She looked out the window and said, "So? What do you want to ask?"

Xie Jingqiu said, "Did you repeat it for a year?"

"Ah."

"Why?" Xie Jingqiu said, "Your grades were very good back then. I remember Teacher Ma said that with your grades, if you perform well, it is not impossible to get into Tsinghua University and Peking University."

"There's no reason," Qiao Yuan grinned, "It's just that she didn't perform well in the college entrance examination."

"The performance of the college entrance examination is abnormal..." Xie Jingqiu murmured, and it took a while before he asked again, "Is... because of that?"

Qiao Yuan lowered her head and said nothing.

"I'm sorry, I was too impulsive back then." Xie Jingqiu seemed calm, but if you listen carefully, you can still hear the trill in her voice, "I only thought about myself at that time, and I didn't think about you. I don't know about that Things will have such a big impact on you, I thought, since you like me..."

"Enough!" Qiao Yuan interrupted Xie Jingqiu, staring at her firmly, "Who said I was influenced by you? Who said I like you? Xie Jingqiu, you are too self-indulgent, right?"

Xie Jingqiu looked at Qiao Yuan and asked with difficulty: "Have you ever liked me? From the beginning to the end, not at all?"

Qiao Yuan blurted out: "I'm not a pervert, why should I like you!"

After Qiao Yuan's words came out, Xie Jingqiu was stunned for five seconds.She regained her senses and showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "I'm sorry, I was thinking too much. Really, I scared you. Don't take it to heart, forget what I just said. Are you sleepy? I'll push you to wash up first. "

She was incoherent and flustered, and when she got up, she knocked over the stool and hit her own foot.

Qiao Yuan took a deep breath, pushed her away, and said expressionlessly, "You don't need to push, I'll go by myself."

"Let me push you over, you go over by yourself..."

"Can you leave me alone!" Qiao Yuan said impatiently, "You really annoy me like this!"

"Is that so?" Xie Jingqiu lowered her raised hand, she forced a smile and said, "I just don't trust you, I'm sorry for causing trouble to you, I will pay attention in the future."

Xie Jingqiu didn't go back to his room to sleep that night, Qiao Yuan lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

She was clearly prepared mentally, but when she heard Xie Jingqiu mentioning "that matter", she still felt a prick in her heart and it hurt.

Qiao Yuan recalled that when she was young, her knees and elbows were often scarred due to careless walking and frequent falls.

She likes to tear off scabbed scars very much, watching a dry scar fall off, she feels inexplicably happy.

But sometimes she would touch a scar that hadn't healed yet, and when she tore it off with her hand, the wound that was almost healed would start to bleed again.

At that time, Liu Lan would say to her: "Why are you so short of hands, kid? The scar will fall off by itself when it's healed. Why are you tearing it up?"

She understands the truth, but she just can't help it.

Today she couldn't help but owed her again, but this time the result was no longer as simple as bleeding.
