I feed my entire legion by farming
Chapter 32 Chess Pieces
Just like that, Qiao Jing slowly withdrew his hand and retreated outside the door.As if he had gained a safe distance, Qiao Jing's heart, which had been kicking non-stop, finally returned to normal.But the sense of loss in his heart made his eyes sore uncontrollably, as if looking at Qiao Yan like this would cause tears to stay.
But at this time, Cen Jia, who came out of the old man's room, had a very ugly expression on his face.The look that old man Qiao gave him just now always gave him a very strange feeling.
In running the family, Mr. Qiao has always demanded that those in power be fair and put the interests of the family first.Just like Qiao Jin, during the past few years when the old man inspected him, Qiao Jin had to ensure that every decision he made was based on the interests of the family, otherwise, the old man would punish him immediately.Even Qiao Gucun, when Mr. Qiao said that he had to keep Qiao Yan, he had no choice but to keep Qiao Yan by his side and let the old housekeeper take care of him to grow up.
In the entire Qiao family, he was the only one who could speak freely, not only because his surname was Cen, but also because the core technology of the Qiao family's current research institute actually came from the Cen family.The director is also a member of the Cen family, entrusted by the grandfather of the Cen family, and has always been loyal to the Cen family.
But even so, when he tested the status of Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen in the old man's heart, he was still warned by him.He even had a feeling that to Mr. Qiao, the status of Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen's illegitimate child didn't seem to matter.As long as they can provide nourishment for the giant Qiao family step by step, it will be fine.It doesn't matter at all whether they are Lu Niaoyou's sons or Gu Yuan's sons.
It's like when he discovered Lu Niao's ability at the beginning, he tried his best to send Lu Niao to a high position against all opinions, and even joked that it was the same to recognize Lu Niao as a daughter.It's also like after Gu Yuan's accident, Qiao Gu Cun was unable to continue, so he directly forcibly trained Qiao Jin.Even Cen Jia herself was counted.
Cen Jia remembered that when she was as old as Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen, she also fantasized about leaving Qiao's house, and Qiao Jin also supported it.He also promised to give him a round-the-world cruise ticket when he becomes an adult, and when he gets older, he feels that a boat ticket is not free, so he will give him a boat.So Qiao Jin started saving money since she was a child.
In the second year after Gu Yuan's accident, Qiao Jin was already thinking about sending him away.But then, Qiao Jin was almost kidnapped and Cen Jia realized that Qiao Jin was in power, but if he didn't have someone he could trust, he might not be able to save his life.
But even so, Cen Jia found that Qiao Jin was still trying his best to send him away and let him escape from the quagmire of Qiao's house.
So, from that day on, Cen Jia gave up her plan to leave and willingly brought the Cen family's skills to be Qiao Jin's help.
Not only because of Qiao Jin's older brother, but also because only by Qiao Jin's side can he, Cen Jia, have the only place in this world that he can call home.
In the past few years, he and Qiao Jin had a difficult time, so he rarely recalled these things.But now, because of Qiao Yan's matter, I suddenly feel terrified when I think about it.
Instead of going back to his room, he went to Qiao Jin's.
"What's the matter?" Seeing his ugly face, Qiao Jin was also anxious.
He pulled Cen Jia to the side of the bed and sat down, then poured a cup of hot water for Cen Jia and put it in his hand, he wanted to call the family doctor.
Cen Jia put the cup aside, telling him not to make a fuss.After a while, I slowly told him what happened in the old man's room just now.
"Apart from that glance, does Grandpa have any other reactions?"
Cen Jia shook his head.
Qiao Jin sat beside him, reached out to hold Cen Jia in her arms, and patted his back.Cen Jia hugged Qiao Jin back.He knew that it seemed that Qiao Jin was comforting him, but in fact, it was Qiao Jin who was comforting himself with his body temperature.
Qiao Jin's father, as the eldest son of the old man, has mediocre qualifications.Mother's vanity cares about fame and fortune, and for Qiao Jin, she is not an elder worth relying on.So they have come here since they were young.Once, Gu Yuan and Lu Youyou sheltered them for a short period of time, but later, only they were left, and Qiao Jing who was more confused than them.
The room was silent.The sound of the car starting came from outside the window, it was the sound of the old man leaving.
It wasn't until the courtyard became quiet again that Qiao Jin and Cen Jia slowly relaxed.
As if lost in memory, Qiao Jin asked Cen Jia, "Do you know why I sent you away at that time?"
"know."
Qiao Jin nodded, "We're only rich for three generations. Although grandpa is capable, he brought the Qiao family to where it is today. But Zi was mediocre all his life, so he wants to rely on his grandchildren to make the Qiao family rise to the next level."
"Look at you today, me, Qiao Chen, A Jing, and Yan Yan, don't you look like my father, second uncle, aunt Yuan, and Lu Nianiao back then?"
"..." Qiao Jin's words linked those subtleties and disobedience before, Cen Jia gasped, and looked at Qiao Jin in shock.
Qiao Jin didn't answer immediately, but went on to say, "What is the second uncle? How can a woman as good as Aunt Yuan marry into Qiao's family? Just because Qiao's family protected her and her younger sister after an accident happened in Gu's family." Or rely on the childhood sweethearts of the second uncle and Aunt Yuan for several years? But the second uncle has no sincerity towards Aunt Yuan. It is impossible for Aunt Yuan not to know about this matter. Then why didn't she run away?"
"Unless she can't escape..." Cen Jia thought of herself.
Qiao Jin hugged Cen Jia, "It's just like Yanyan now. There's also you back then."
His tone was a little more sarcastic, "And me who thought I could protect you."
"We are all pawns in his hand."
"The kidnapping looked dangerous, but when the knife came down, I knew that the purpose of the knife was not to kill me. It was to keep the core technology of the Cen family in the Qiao family forever."
"So, why don't you go? That's the only chance, tie me up now, unless he dies, otherwise, you'll be trapped here."
For the first time, Cen Jia saw emotions such as remorse in Qiao Jin's eyes, "I can't go!"
"You and Aunt Yuan are here, where can I go?"
"Yes! Because we all have feelings for the Qiao family, none of us can leave. It's a pity that Yanan has no feelings for anyone, and now we can only be trapped here like us."
Sighing, Qiao Jin and Cen Jia said, "Ah Jing visited Yanyan in the ward after visiting Aunt Yuan yesterday. He stroked Yanyan's hair."
Cen Jia immediately realized, "What is he going to do..."
Qiao Jin showed Cen Jia two inspection reports. According to the reports, Qiao Yan's allergens were exactly the same as Gu Yuan's.
"Is Ah Jing suspicious of Yanyan and Qiao Chen's identities?" Cen Jia shook his head, "I asked someone to do an appraisal back then."
Qiao Jin: "Qiao Yan has been in Qiao's family for 18 years. I only contacted him once, but I got someone to do six appraisals, and the results were the same as yours every time."
"It's not just me, I found out that the second uncle and the old housekeeper of Qiao's family have also found someone to do it."
"Our results are the same as yours."
There are no idiots in the Qiao family, just looking at Qiao Yan's face can easily make people suspicious.But in this case, it has been 18 years and no one has doubted it, which is simply impossible.
It can only be said that all skeptics get negative answers, so that's why.
At first, Qiao Jin always thought that she had misunderstood.It wasn't until he really came to power in the past two years that he found out some things one after another behind Mr. Qiao's back.
"Ah Jing asked someone to send something to another province. He was smart enough to avoid the imperial capital. But he was not careful enough. He took the wrong things." Qiao Jin opened the drawer, and it was Qiao Jing who took it away before Gu Yuan's comb.
"It is indeed Aunt Yuan's, but the hair on it belongs to the nurse."
"Is it the old man?"
Qiao Jin didn't deny it, but hugged Cen Jia, "I'm so tired of watching these days, I'll wait for the result from Ah Jing."
"If it's the same as our previous result..."
"Then the top management of your S city research institute will have to reshuffle the cards." Qiao Jin's face also became serious.
"So Yanyan is really... Sister Ayuan's child?" Cen Jia's face turned pale in an instant.
They all knew what Qiao Yan had lived in Qiao's house for 18 years.But in the past, because of Qiao Yan's status as an illegitimate child and their complicated feelings for Lu Niaoling, they watched him coldly.But now, Qiao Yan is Gu Yuan's child, so their cold eyes are no different from ungrateful.
Cen Jia looked at Qiao Jin, trying to get some solutions from Qiao Jin, but Qiao Jin shook his head and didn't give him any answer.
"Let's wait for the results to come out first! Right now, everything is just speculation." Finally, Qiao Jin said to Cen Jia.
But Cen Jia already understood that everything back then was planned.It's just that they were incompetent and took so long to find out the truth.As for Qiao Yan, no matter what purpose and reason each of them had for the past 18 years, they have not fulfilled their responsibilities as a brother.
They failed the child.
Hugging Qiao Jin, Cen Jia finally cried out.He thought of Qiao Yan calling out to him while holding him in the ward.But in the end, he still didn't deserve the trust he gave.
Until the housekeeper knocked on the door, Cen Jia still hadn't come out of his thoughts.
"Second Young Master has been downstairs for a long time, so we don't want to disturb you."
"I gonna go see."
Cen Jia and Qiao Jin went downstairs together, and when they saw the photo of Qiao Yan holding Lu Niaoling in the storage room with tears all over his face, Cen Jia was so uncomfortable that he dared not breathe.
Qiao Jin stood at the door, looked at Qiao Jing and asked him, "Aren't you going to hug him?"
Qiao Jing shook his head.
Qiao Jin looked at him with pity, "Ah Jing, you will regret it."
Then Qiao Jin walked in and gently picked Qiao Yan up from the ground.Take him back to the bedroom on the second floor with Cen Jia.
Qiao Yan woke up because of the warmth around him.He struggled to wake up from the nightmare, opened his eyes, only to find that Qiao Jin hugged him and put him on the bed.
"It's not dawn yet, let's sleep for a while."
Qiao Yan saw that the circles under Cen Jia's eyes were red, and reached out to touch them.
Cen Jia held Qiao Yan's hand, "Get well soon."
Qiao Yan gave a low "um" and then fell asleep due to exhaustion.
He didn't know that after he fell asleep, Cen Jia looked at him like this for a long time.Then he left with Qiao Jin.
"Brother, find a way to send him away early!" In the corridor, Cen Jia's voice was very soft, but it fell heavily on Qiao Jin's heart.
After a long time, Qiao Jin replied solemnly: "Okay."
But before that, he needed to find someone who could pass over Qiao's house and protect Qiao Yan.
That night, in Qiao's old house, except for Qiao Yan, almost everyone else had a sleepless night.
The next morning, Qiao Yan woke up on the biological clock.I found myself in the bedroom.Thinking of last night when he was half asleep and half awake, he seemed to see Qiao Jin and Cen Jia, and knew that they carried him up.
Qiao Yan hugged the quilt and felt stunned, unable to tell what it felt like.He was grateful to Qiao Jin and Cen Jia for their kindness to him, but he couldn't fully believe it.Because these good things come too suddenly and too fast.
They had ignored him for the past 18 years, but Joe couldn't adapt to this sudden change.
But anyway, thought Jo, as long as he studied hard.Qiao Jin is the person in charge of the Qiao family. In the future, as long as he can take over the research institute smoothly, he will be able to repay Qiao Jin.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yan felt a lot more relieved.
According to the old man's arrangement, today is the day for Qiao Yan to meet with the other two team members.After Qiao Yan changed her clothes, she went downstairs.
After Qiao Yan left, Qiao Jing went into Qiao Yan's storage room and sat there overnight.
When Qiao Yan went downstairs, he didn't find Qiao Jing. After breakfast, he put on his schoolbag and prepared to go to the teacher's side.Cen Jia waited outside, saw that Qiao was tired of coming out, and quickly tied a scarf on him.
"You can't freeze it. The doctor wouldn't let you go out of the hospital. I asked the driver to follow you, and I told the tuition teacher. If you feel uncomfortable, don't hold on. There is good soup in the thermos bucket, and you can drink it between classes. One point, contact me anytime, you know?"
"Brother Qiao Jin and the old man handed you over to me, Yanyan, don't let me be scolded!" Cen Jia stayed up all night, trying to tease Qiao Yan with a smile.
Qiao Yan nodded one by one, so obedient that it made one's heart soften.
Qiao Jing stood at the door watching, and suddenly remembered what happened to Qiao Yan when he was a child.
Qiao Yan was sensible very early. He knew his identity as an illegitimate child when he was five or six years old, and he also understood caution and duty.It's just that he is young, and he still can't help wanting to be liked.
Qiao Chen has learned photography and oil painting since he was a child. He is very talented in photography, but unfortunately he doesn't know anything about painting.Once, when the teacher came, Qiao Chen didn't want to go to class and slipped out.When the teacher saw Qiao Yan in the yard, he thought he was a servant's child, and saw that Qiao Yan was cute, so he taught him a little bit when he had nothing to do.
When Qiao Jing brought Qiao Chen back, Qiao Yan had already been studying with the teacher for a long time.Later that day, Qiao Chen gave Qiao Yan a meal as it should be.Qiao Jing didn't care.But that night, he saw a greeting card stuffed in the crack of the door, which Joe hated to draw, with happy birthday written on it.
Only then did Qiao Jing realize that the next day was his birthday.He had forgotten it himself, but Qiao Yan knew and remembered it.
The next day, Qiao Jin asked him to go out to celebrate his birthday. When he went out, Qiao Jing saw Qiao Yan looking at him cautiously at the door, knowing that he wanted to say something to him, but Qiao Jing didn't respond to him in the end.
Qiao Jing thought that if he could touch Qiao Yan's head and tell him that he had received the greeting card, Qiao Yan would be very happy.
Pity.
At this time, Qiao Yan's side, after leaving the old house, drove for about an hour, and finally arrived at the door of the agreed teacher.The teacher personally came to pick up Qiao Yan.Seeing Qiao Yan's first glance, the teacher frowned.
"Is your condition really okay?"
In the teacher's opinion, Qiao Yan should not be here at all, but should be lying on a bed under intensive observation in the hospital.
Qiao Yan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.His throat can already speak, but there will be slight pain when the air passes through it.But for Qiao Yan, these were all tolerable.
Seeing his resolute attitude, the teacher sighed and concentrated on talking to Qiao about forming a team.
He told Qiao Yan, "This time, you are the captain of the team, and it's up to you to decide who to choose."
"Everyone's situation is here. You can form a team according to your needs. If you feel that you can adapt, you will stay. Wait until the final team quota is determined before the game. If you are not selected, let them form a team on their own."
But in fact, if he was selected by Qiao Yan, but he did not choose to form a team in the end, it would be tantamount to missing the opportunity of this competition.
However, it is in line with the Qiao family's usual practice of maximizing benefits. As long as the winner can be guaranteed, everyone else can become a stepping stone.
Qiao Yan looked through the list, and there were two familiar names on it.
One is Zhao Qin, and the other is the child of the gardener who cheated Qiao Yan with Qiao Chen when they were young.
These two people... Cen Jia also has impressions of them, and originally wanted to tell Qiao Yan that if you don't like them, just cross them out.
But Qiao Yan pointed out that Zhao Qin was crossed out, but the gardener's child remained.
"These four people, I want to meet."
Cen Jia took a closer look. The gardener's child is good at mathematics, the other two are good at programming, and the last one has more comprehensive data and can be responsible for writing and presenting the most thesis.
The teacher took the list to find someone.
Cen Jia couldn't understand, "Why did you get rid of Zhao Qin but keep him?"
Cen Jia knew that Qiao Yan could fit two positions in the team.So it is understandable to keep people like this.But Qiao Yan could choose to get rid of the gardener's child and leave another person with more comprehensive data.
Qiao Yan calmly analyzed, "Zhao Qin is not good. Although he is a little smart, his foundation is not solid enough. But this is okay. He is the person with the highest math score besides me."
"But he wasn't..."
"Those are not important." Qiao Yan was very calm. "My team has two collocation methods. If I want to win the championship, I must ensure the optimality of the team."
Cen Jia didn't know what to say for a moment.Qiao Yan sat waiting in the small classroom, and he took out the textbook to review.Cen Jia looked at Qiao Yan from the side, and suddenly felt that Qiao Yan seemed to have changed a little bit compared to before.
He doesn't seem to smile that much anymore.
In the past, when Qiao hated looking at people, there was always a gentle smile in his eyes, but now, the warmth is gone, and he looks cold.Holding him in the hospital and calling "Brother" that time was like Qiao Yan's last weakness.And after getting Lu Niaoyou's photos and relics from the old man, Qiao Yan seemed to have circled himself.
Cen Jia subconsciously wanted to call him, but in the end she didn't bother him.
At this time, in the big classroom, those ten or so students were waiting.
Some of them were originally funded by the Qiao family, and some were poached from other teams by the Qiao family.He can be regarded as the proud son of heaven. After coming here, several of them thought that they were the captain, so when they heard that they were just a team member, they were very unconvinced.
Smart teenagers are a bit aggressive and proud.
So, how powerful is this airborne captain?
The teacher sent them Qiao Yan's papers directly.After reading this group of people, they were all dumbfounded.Full marks?
"Fuck! What kind of monster is this!" Qiao Ran, a young master of one of the branches of the Qiao family, was stunned.Everyone else was just as dumbfounded.
But no one noticed that after seeing the handwriting on the paper, a person's face suddenly became ugly.
It was Zhao Qin, who was too familiar with the words on that paper.
That was Qiao Yan's word.
The author says:
There is a small red envelope in the message.Update tomorrow at [-]pm.

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
But at this time, Cen Jia, who came out of the old man's room, had a very ugly expression on his face.The look that old man Qiao gave him just now always gave him a very strange feeling.
In running the family, Mr. Qiao has always demanded that those in power be fair and put the interests of the family first.Just like Qiao Jin, during the past few years when the old man inspected him, Qiao Jin had to ensure that every decision he made was based on the interests of the family, otherwise, the old man would punish him immediately.Even Qiao Gucun, when Mr. Qiao said that he had to keep Qiao Yan, he had no choice but to keep Qiao Yan by his side and let the old housekeeper take care of him to grow up.
In the entire Qiao family, he was the only one who could speak freely, not only because his surname was Cen, but also because the core technology of the Qiao family's current research institute actually came from the Cen family.The director is also a member of the Cen family, entrusted by the grandfather of the Cen family, and has always been loyal to the Cen family.
But even so, when he tested the status of Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen in the old man's heart, he was still warned by him.He even had a feeling that to Mr. Qiao, the status of Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen's illegitimate child didn't seem to matter.As long as they can provide nourishment for the giant Qiao family step by step, it will be fine.It doesn't matter at all whether they are Lu Niaoyou's sons or Gu Yuan's sons.
It's like when he discovered Lu Niao's ability at the beginning, he tried his best to send Lu Niao to a high position against all opinions, and even joked that it was the same to recognize Lu Niao as a daughter.It's also like after Gu Yuan's accident, Qiao Gu Cun was unable to continue, so he directly forcibly trained Qiao Jin.Even Cen Jia herself was counted.
Cen Jia remembered that when she was as old as Qiao Yan and Qiao Chen, she also fantasized about leaving Qiao's house, and Qiao Jin also supported it.He also promised to give him a round-the-world cruise ticket when he becomes an adult, and when he gets older, he feels that a boat ticket is not free, so he will give him a boat.So Qiao Jin started saving money since she was a child.
In the second year after Gu Yuan's accident, Qiao Jin was already thinking about sending him away.But then, Qiao Jin was almost kidnapped and Cen Jia realized that Qiao Jin was in power, but if he didn't have someone he could trust, he might not be able to save his life.
But even so, Cen Jia found that Qiao Jin was still trying his best to send him away and let him escape from the quagmire of Qiao's house.
So, from that day on, Cen Jia gave up her plan to leave and willingly brought the Cen family's skills to be Qiao Jin's help.
Not only because of Qiao Jin's older brother, but also because only by Qiao Jin's side can he, Cen Jia, have the only place in this world that he can call home.
In the past few years, he and Qiao Jin had a difficult time, so he rarely recalled these things.But now, because of Qiao Yan's matter, I suddenly feel terrified when I think about it.
Instead of going back to his room, he went to Qiao Jin's.
"What's the matter?" Seeing his ugly face, Qiao Jin was also anxious.
He pulled Cen Jia to the side of the bed and sat down, then poured a cup of hot water for Cen Jia and put it in his hand, he wanted to call the family doctor.
Cen Jia put the cup aside, telling him not to make a fuss.After a while, I slowly told him what happened in the old man's room just now.
"Apart from that glance, does Grandpa have any other reactions?"
Cen Jia shook his head.
Qiao Jin sat beside him, reached out to hold Cen Jia in her arms, and patted his back.Cen Jia hugged Qiao Jin back.He knew that it seemed that Qiao Jin was comforting him, but in fact, it was Qiao Jin who was comforting himself with his body temperature.
Qiao Jin's father, as the eldest son of the old man, has mediocre qualifications.Mother's vanity cares about fame and fortune, and for Qiao Jin, she is not an elder worth relying on.So they have come here since they were young.Once, Gu Yuan and Lu Youyou sheltered them for a short period of time, but later, only they were left, and Qiao Jing who was more confused than them.
The room was silent.The sound of the car starting came from outside the window, it was the sound of the old man leaving.
It wasn't until the courtyard became quiet again that Qiao Jin and Cen Jia slowly relaxed.
As if lost in memory, Qiao Jin asked Cen Jia, "Do you know why I sent you away at that time?"
"know."
Qiao Jin nodded, "We're only rich for three generations. Although grandpa is capable, he brought the Qiao family to where it is today. But Zi was mediocre all his life, so he wants to rely on his grandchildren to make the Qiao family rise to the next level."
"Look at you today, me, Qiao Chen, A Jing, and Yan Yan, don't you look like my father, second uncle, aunt Yuan, and Lu Nianiao back then?"
"..." Qiao Jin's words linked those subtleties and disobedience before, Cen Jia gasped, and looked at Qiao Jin in shock.
Qiao Jin didn't answer immediately, but went on to say, "What is the second uncle? How can a woman as good as Aunt Yuan marry into Qiao's family? Just because Qiao's family protected her and her younger sister after an accident happened in Gu's family." Or rely on the childhood sweethearts of the second uncle and Aunt Yuan for several years? But the second uncle has no sincerity towards Aunt Yuan. It is impossible for Aunt Yuan not to know about this matter. Then why didn't she run away?"
"Unless she can't escape..." Cen Jia thought of herself.
Qiao Jin hugged Cen Jia, "It's just like Yanyan now. There's also you back then."
His tone was a little more sarcastic, "And me who thought I could protect you."
"We are all pawns in his hand."
"The kidnapping looked dangerous, but when the knife came down, I knew that the purpose of the knife was not to kill me. It was to keep the core technology of the Cen family in the Qiao family forever."
"So, why don't you go? That's the only chance, tie me up now, unless he dies, otherwise, you'll be trapped here."
For the first time, Cen Jia saw emotions such as remorse in Qiao Jin's eyes, "I can't go!"
"You and Aunt Yuan are here, where can I go?"
"Yes! Because we all have feelings for the Qiao family, none of us can leave. It's a pity that Yanan has no feelings for anyone, and now we can only be trapped here like us."
Sighing, Qiao Jin and Cen Jia said, "Ah Jing visited Yanyan in the ward after visiting Aunt Yuan yesterday. He stroked Yanyan's hair."
Cen Jia immediately realized, "What is he going to do..."
Qiao Jin showed Cen Jia two inspection reports. According to the reports, Qiao Yan's allergens were exactly the same as Gu Yuan's.
"Is Ah Jing suspicious of Yanyan and Qiao Chen's identities?" Cen Jia shook his head, "I asked someone to do an appraisal back then."
Qiao Jin: "Qiao Yan has been in Qiao's family for 18 years. I only contacted him once, but I got someone to do six appraisals, and the results were the same as yours every time."
"It's not just me, I found out that the second uncle and the old housekeeper of Qiao's family have also found someone to do it."
"Our results are the same as yours."
There are no idiots in the Qiao family, just looking at Qiao Yan's face can easily make people suspicious.But in this case, it has been 18 years and no one has doubted it, which is simply impossible.
It can only be said that all skeptics get negative answers, so that's why.
At first, Qiao Jin always thought that she had misunderstood.It wasn't until he really came to power in the past two years that he found out some things one after another behind Mr. Qiao's back.
"Ah Jing asked someone to send something to another province. He was smart enough to avoid the imperial capital. But he was not careful enough. He took the wrong things." Qiao Jin opened the drawer, and it was Qiao Jing who took it away before Gu Yuan's comb.
"It is indeed Aunt Yuan's, but the hair on it belongs to the nurse."
"Is it the old man?"
Qiao Jin didn't deny it, but hugged Cen Jia, "I'm so tired of watching these days, I'll wait for the result from Ah Jing."
"If it's the same as our previous result..."
"Then the top management of your S city research institute will have to reshuffle the cards." Qiao Jin's face also became serious.
"So Yanyan is really... Sister Ayuan's child?" Cen Jia's face turned pale in an instant.
They all knew what Qiao Yan had lived in Qiao's house for 18 years.But in the past, because of Qiao Yan's status as an illegitimate child and their complicated feelings for Lu Niaoling, they watched him coldly.But now, Qiao Yan is Gu Yuan's child, so their cold eyes are no different from ungrateful.
Cen Jia looked at Qiao Jin, trying to get some solutions from Qiao Jin, but Qiao Jin shook his head and didn't give him any answer.
"Let's wait for the results to come out first! Right now, everything is just speculation." Finally, Qiao Jin said to Cen Jia.
But Cen Jia already understood that everything back then was planned.It's just that they were incompetent and took so long to find out the truth.As for Qiao Yan, no matter what purpose and reason each of them had for the past 18 years, they have not fulfilled their responsibilities as a brother.
They failed the child.
Hugging Qiao Jin, Cen Jia finally cried out.He thought of Qiao Yan calling out to him while holding him in the ward.But in the end, he still didn't deserve the trust he gave.
Until the housekeeper knocked on the door, Cen Jia still hadn't come out of his thoughts.
"Second Young Master has been downstairs for a long time, so we don't want to disturb you."
"I gonna go see."
Cen Jia and Qiao Jin went downstairs together, and when they saw the photo of Qiao Yan holding Lu Niaoling in the storage room with tears all over his face, Cen Jia was so uncomfortable that he dared not breathe.
Qiao Jin stood at the door, looked at Qiao Jing and asked him, "Aren't you going to hug him?"
Qiao Jing shook his head.
Qiao Jin looked at him with pity, "Ah Jing, you will regret it."
Then Qiao Jin walked in and gently picked Qiao Yan up from the ground.Take him back to the bedroom on the second floor with Cen Jia.
Qiao Yan woke up because of the warmth around him.He struggled to wake up from the nightmare, opened his eyes, only to find that Qiao Jin hugged him and put him on the bed.
"It's not dawn yet, let's sleep for a while."

"Brother, find a way to send him away early!" In the corridor, Cen Jia's voice was very soft, but it fell heavily on Qiao Jin's heart.
After a long time, Qiao Jin replied solemnly: "Okay."
But before that, he needed to find someone who could pass over Qiao's house and protect Qiao Yan.
That night, in Qiao's old house, except for Qiao Yan, almost everyone else had a sleepless night.

According to the old man's arrangement, today is the day for Qiao Yan to meet with the other two team members.After Qiao Yan changed her clothes, she went downstairs.
After Qiao Yan left, Qiao Jing went into Qiao Yan's storage room and sat there overnight.
When Qiao Yan went downstairs, he didn't find Qiao Jing. After breakfast, he put on his schoolbag and prepared to go to the teacher's side.Cen Jia waited outside, saw that Qiao was tired of coming out, and quickly tied a scarf on him.
"You can't freeze it. The doctor wouldn't let you go out of the hospital. I asked the driver to follow you, and I told the tuition teacher. If you feel uncomfortable, don't hold on. There is good soup in the thermos bucket, and you can drink it between classes. One point, contact me anytime, you know?"
"Brother Qiao Jin and the old man handed you over to me, Yanyan, don't let me be scolded!" Cen Jia stayed up all night, trying to tease Qiao Yan with a smile.
Qiao Yan nodded one by one, so obedient that it made one's heart soften.
Qiao Jing stood at the door watching, and suddenly remembered what happened to Qiao Yan when he was a child.
Qiao Yan was sensible very early. He knew his identity as an illegitimate child when he was five or six years old, and he also understood caution and duty.It's just that he is young, and he still can't help wanting to be liked.
Qiao Chen has learned photography and oil painting since he was a child. He is very talented in photography, but unfortunately he doesn't know anything about painting.Once, when the teacher came, Qiao Chen didn't want to go to class and slipped out.When the teacher saw Qiao Yan in the yard, he thought he was a servant's child, and saw that Qiao Yan was cute, so he taught him a little bit when he had nothing to do.
When Qiao Jing brought Qiao Chen back, Qiao Yan had already been studying with the teacher for a long time.Later that day, Qiao Chen gave Qiao Yan a meal as it should be.Qiao Jing didn't care.But that night, he saw a greeting card stuffed in the crack of the door, which Joe hated to draw, with happy birthday written on it.
Only then did Qiao Jing realize that the next day was his birthday.He had forgotten it himself, but Qiao Yan knew and remembered it.
The next day, Qiao Jin asked him to go out to celebrate his birthday. When he went out, Qiao Jing saw Qiao Yan looking at him cautiously at the door, knowing that he wanted to say something to him, but Qiao Jing didn't respond to him in the end.
Qiao Jing thought that if he could touch Qiao Yan's head and tell him that he had received the greeting card, Qiao Yan would be very happy.
Pity.
At this time, Qiao Yan's side, after leaving the old house, drove for about an hour, and finally arrived at the door of the agreed teacher.The teacher personally came to pick up Qiao Yan.Seeing Qiao Yan's first glance, the teacher frowned.
"Is your condition really okay?"
In the teacher's opinion, Qiao Yan should not be here at all, but should be lying on a bed under intensive observation in the hospital.
Qiao Yan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.His throat can already speak, but there will be slight pain when the air passes through it.But for Qiao Yan, these were all tolerable.
Seeing his resolute attitude, the teacher sighed and concentrated on talking to Qiao about forming a team.
He told Qiao Yan, "This time, you are the captain of the team, and it's up to you to decide who to choose."
"Everyone's situation is here. You can form a team according to your needs. If you feel that you can adapt, you will stay. Wait until the final team quota is determined before the game. If you are not selected, let them form a team on their own."
But in fact, if he was selected by Qiao Yan, but he did not choose to form a team in the end, it would be tantamount to missing the opportunity of this competition.
However, it is in line with the Qiao family's usual practice of maximizing benefits. As long as the winner can be guaranteed, everyone else can become a stepping stone.
Qiao Yan looked through the list, and there were two familiar names on it.
One is Zhao Qin, and the other is the child of the gardener who cheated Qiao Yan with Qiao Chen when they were young.
These two people... Cen Jia also has impressions of them, and originally wanted to tell Qiao Yan that if you don't like them, just cross them out.
But Qiao Yan pointed out that Zhao Qin was crossed out, but the gardener's child remained.
"These four people, I want to meet."
Cen Jia took a closer look. The gardener's child is good at mathematics, the other two are good at programming, and the last one has more comprehensive data and can be responsible for writing and presenting the most thesis.
The teacher took the list to find someone.
Cen Jia couldn't understand, "Why did you get rid of Zhao Qin but keep him?"
Cen Jia knew that Qiao Yan could fit two positions in the team.So it is understandable to keep people like this.But Qiao Yan could choose to get rid of the gardener's child and leave another person with more comprehensive data.
Qiao Yan calmly analyzed, "Zhao Qin is not good. Although he is a little smart, his foundation is not solid enough. But this is okay. He is the person with the highest math score besides me."
"But he wasn't..."
"Those are not important." Qiao Yan was very calm. "My team has two collocation methods. If I want to win the championship, I must ensure the optimality of the team."
Cen Jia didn't know what to say for a moment.Qiao Yan sat waiting in the small classroom, and he took out the textbook to review.Cen Jia looked at Qiao Yan from the side, and suddenly felt that Qiao Yan seemed to have changed a little bit compared to before.
He doesn't seem to smile that much anymore.
In the past, when Qiao hated looking at people, there was always a gentle smile in his eyes, but now, the warmth is gone, and he looks cold.Holding him in the hospital and calling "Brother" that time was like Qiao Yan's last weakness.And after getting Lu Niaoyou's photos and relics from the old man, Qiao Yan seemed to have circled himself.
Cen Jia subconsciously wanted to call him, but in the end she didn't bother him.
At this time, in the big classroom, those ten or so students were waiting.
Some of them were originally funded by the Qiao family, and some were poached from other teams by the Qiao family.He can be regarded as the proud son of heaven. After coming here, several of them thought that they were the captain, so when they heard that they were just a team member, they were very unconvinced.
Smart teenagers are a bit aggressive and proud.
So, how powerful is this airborne captain?
The teacher sent them Qiao Yan's papers directly.After reading this group of people, they were all dumbfounded.Full marks?
"Fuck! What kind of monster is this!" Qiao Ran, a young master of one of the branches of the Qiao family, was stunned.Everyone else was just as dumbfounded.
But no one noticed that after seeing the handwriting on the paper, a person's face suddenly became ugly.
It was Zhao Qin, who was too familiar with the words on that paper.
That was Qiao Yan's word.
