MTL - I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law-Chapter 546 I can't laugh anymore, there is a rival in love
Chapter 546 I can’t laugh anymore, a love rival appears
When Shao Jingmo said he would not go, Qiao Qiao was not very happy.
Because what she is more worried about now is: "If you don't go, how will the Bai family explain?"
The power of the Bai family may not have reached the point where it needs to be feared.
But the Bai family's current attitude towards Shao Jingmo is obviously showing favor. If Shao Jingmo doesn't go this time, it will be tantamount to directly showing that they will not give the Bai family face.
It's not a good thing to have a falling out with the Bai family on the surface.
"Are you worried?" Shao Jingmo asked her.
Qiao Qiao nodded: "You must be worried."
Shao Jingmo played with her fingers, and comforted softly: "The Bai family did have some status in Xingzhou in the early years, but now it is different from the past. The interior of the Bai family has already become a mess, not as united as the outside world sees."
Qiao Qiao doesn't quite understand these things: "I can understand that the Bai family is now in a stage of internal fighting?"
Shao Jingmo rolled his lips: "It can be understood in this way."
There are not many open and secret struggles in the family of the group.
The most indispensable thing for people is greed. If they can be superior to others, who would bother with the seemingly peaceful tripartite confrontation.
Shao Jingmo raised her hand and kissed her fingertips: "So don't worry about what will happen to the Bai family if I don't go. This birthday party is a contest within the Bai family in front of Mr. Bai. After Mr. Bai's birthday is over , the internal strife in the Bai family may subside."
Qiao Qiao pulled her hand out of his palm, put her arms around his neck instead, leaned closer and asked, "Then, among the three of the Bai family, who do you think will be the next head of the Bai family?"
Shao Jingmo: "Bai Qingnan."
Qiao Qiao was surprised: "Why do you think it's him?"
Shao Jingmo smiled: "I mean, he is the least likely."
Qiao Qiao also laughed.
Shao Jingmo's palm rested on her lower back.
Qiao Qiao didn't want to get up, she snuggled into his arms obediently: "Rub my waist, please."
He said hello, then took off the watch on his wrist, put it on the table next to him, and unbuttoned the cuff buttons halfway up.
After doing this, he put his hands back on her lower back.
He controlled the most suitable strength, pressed it once and for all, and then asked her: "Mrs. Shao, is this strength okay?"
Qiao Qiao has already closed her eyes and enjoyed it: "It's okay, press it carefully, and press the reward."
He rolled his lips and smiled: "For the reward, it is naturally to serve Mrs. Shao comfortably."
-
Seeing Bai Fengjiang's birthday approaching.
Qiao Qiao didn't take this matter too seriously because of Shao Jingmo's words that day.
Until he came back from work that day, after dinner, Mr. Qiao called Qiao Qiao to go to his place to talk with him.
Mother Qiao cut up a plate of fruit and handed it to Qiao Qiao: "Your grandpa is looking for you, it may be related to the Bai family, that Bai Fengjiang called your grandpa today, and I don't know what he said, your grandpa has been talking all afternoon. Never went out!"
Qiao Qiao frowned: "Why is the ghost of the Bai family always lingering?"
Mother Qiao sighed: "Then what can I do? Before this matter is resolved, the Bai family will remain haunted."
Qiao Qiao was silent.
Mother Qiao stretched out her hand: "Take it, go up quickly, watch for some time and don't chat for too long, and urge your grandpa to go to bed early."
Qiao Qiao took the fruit plate: "Got it."
Grandpa Joe's living room.
Qiao Qiao knocked on the door, the servant came to open the door for her, nodded and shouted: "Miss."
Qiao Qiao said: "You go out first, I will accompany Grandpa."
The servant nodded, then exited after Qiao Qiao came in, and then closed the door.
"Grandpa, I heard from my mother that you haven't been out much recently, how can you do it if you don't go out, it will be moldy, and the weather is so good recently, why don't I take a day off tomorrow and go for a walk outside with you?"
As soon as Qiao Qiao came in, she turned into a chatterbox.
She put the fruit plate on the small table beside the bed, pulled the chair over, sat down by the bed, and looked at the old man who was leaning on the bed.
Old man Qiao said unhappily: "Even if your surname is Qiao, you can't say that you can't take this class. It's better than anything else to stay in the company and learn more. I don't need you to accompany me, a bad old man."
Qiao Qiao was very casual in front of Mr. Qiao. She stepped forward, propped her elbows on the bed, and said with a smile: "Although my surname is Qiao, I can also ask for leave. Who stipulates that company employees cannot ask for leave."
After a pause, she added: "And I'm called filial piety, can't I accompany you to relieve boredom? I happen to have a lot of interesting things to chat with you."
Old man Qiao was amused, and reached out to knock on Qiao Qiao's forehead: "I have been clever since I was a child, but Bai Chang has been here for decades, and I am not stable at all."
She replied without hesitation: "How can one's personality change at will? It's not natural. Besides, it's enough to have one mature and stable one in the family. If there is another one, it will be uneasy."
Grandpa Qiao said meaningfully: "The person who used to talk about being squeezed, now comes out of your mouth and becomes a mature and stable person, which is rare."
Qiao Qiao knew that Grandpa was teasing her, so she smiled embarrassedly: "That's because I was young and ignorant."
Grandpa Qiao asked: "So are you sensible now?"
Qiao Qiao nodded: "Yes."
Master Joe laughed out loud.
Laughing and coughing again, Qiao Qiao was so nervous that she quickly poured water on the old man and patted his back.
Grandpa Qiao waved his hand: "As soon as you're happy, that's it, it's all right."
When Mr. Qiao came back a little bit, he looked up and saw Qiao Qiao's red eyes looking like he was about to cry, Mr. Qiao sighed helplessly: "It's just so good, I almost cried in fright, it's okay, grandpa is used to it." .”
Qiao Qiao smiled through tears: "I was thinking of making you happy, so I'd better be serious."
After speaking, she put the water glass back and brought the fruit plate over.
Mr. Qiao didn't resist fruit very much, so he ate some.
When chatting normally, Mr. Qiao hardly asks about Qiao Qiao's affairs in the company.
But tonight, for the first time, Mr. Qiao asked a lot about Qiao Qiao's work in the company.
Including some recent developments and changes within the Deep Blue Group.
Qiao Qiao answered seriously.
The topic came to Shao Jingmo, who was not present, and Mr. Qiao asked: "Jingmo treats you in all kinds of ways in front of me, but I can't find any faults. Do you have many criticisms of you in the company?"
Qiao Qiao shook her head: "No, little uncle treats me the same way he usually treats me in front of you, and outside, as long as I don't understand things in the company and ask him, he will patiently tell me that little uncle treats me very well. "
"This child is still devoted to you." Mr. Qiao sighed, with a melancholy expression on his face: "I owed him the first time I asked him to marry you. Later, when I saw that your relationship is harmonious, the debt in my heart has not diminished but increased."
Qiao Qiao was curious: "Why do you still feel that the debt in your heart has not decreased but increased instead of our relationship?"
Grandpa Qiao said earnestly: "When his parents passed away, I didn't see him shed a tear at the funeral. This kid can bear it, which is why he can achieve great things. He just endured it."
Listening to Mr. Qiao's words, the scene of Shao Jingmo's first visit to their house slowly appeared before Qiao Qiao's eyes.
The boy was only fourteen years old, wearing a clean sweater, and led by his adoptive father Qiao Huasheng, stepped into the gate of Qiao's house.
Qiao Qiao, who was only seven years old, was not in the house.
She was originally squatting among the flowers in the front yard, but when she heard Grandpa's voice, she immediately stood up from the flowers, waving her little hands and shouting: "Grandpa~"
At that time, Qiao Huasheng was leading a young man towards the gate. Hearing Qiao Qiao's voice, he stopped and turned around.
The boy who turned around with Qiao Huasheng was also the boy.
Not too far away, Qiao Qiao heard her grandfather say to the young man, "Look, Jing Mo, the little girl in the flowers is my granddaughter. Her name is Qiao Qiao. I gave her a small character called 姽姽, and she will be you from now on." little niece."
At that time, Shao Jingmo, who had just lost his parents, was taciturn and had no expression on his face.
After her grandfather introduced her identity, the young man who knew that he was about to live in another family gave her a forced smile.
Qiao Qiao has never seen such an ugly smile on a person's face.
So from then on, she didn't like Shao Jingmo.
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh." Old Joe shouted.
Qiao Qiao came back to her senses: "Huh? What happened to grandpa?"
Grandpa Qiao waved his hand: "The past is over, let's not talk about the past, let's talk about the recent things. People from the Bai family have already looked for me. Bai Fengjiang's eighth or eighth birthday is coming soon, so he specially invited me to attend."
Qiao Qiao asked: "Is grandpa planning to go?"
"Yes, I plan to go." Mr. Qiao said in a serious tone: "I locked myself in the room for an afternoon today. I figured it out. I will face it sooner or later, so grandpa plans to take you with me."
Qiao Qiao was startled: "Take me with you?"
Grandpa Qiao nodded: "Yes, grandpa plans to take you with him. Don't be afraid, you will be fine with grandpa."
Qiao Qiao hesitated: "But the little uncle said..."
Old Man Qiao guessed: "Jing Mo won't let you go?"
Qiao Qiao hummed: "Little uncle said, if I go this time, the Bai family may use despicable means to keep me here."
Master Qiao's face became more serious: "But if you don't go, I'm even more worried."
"It will be fine. My little uncle said he won't go either, he will accompany me." Qiao Qiao was afraid that her grandfather would be too worried, so she told Shao Jingmo's arrangement.
Old Man Qiao sighed and said, "Jingmo is more considerate."
After finishing speaking, Mr. Qiao waved his hand: "I have been chatting with this old man for so long, go to rest early. As for going to Bai's house, I will think about it again."
Qiao Qiao stood up: "Then go to bed early."
She came out of the living room, her face was a little heavy, and her mind was full of the words she had just talked with grandpa.
Why did grandpa take her to Bai's house?
Or, Shao Jingmo's consideration is actually not that safe? Maybe it's safest to go to the Bai family, because for such a big birthday banquet, if she disappears, the Bai family will be the first to take responsibility.
Especially Shao Jingmo said that the Bai family is now fighting among themselves, and several heirs are fighting to make achievements in front of Mr. Bai.
Then what kind of achievements should be made to satisfy Mr. Bai the most?
Perhaps, what if we bring her to Mr. Bai?
Bai Qingfeng, Bai Qingnan, and Bai Qingchen would be in danger if they shot at the same time!
She was thinking about something while walking, and she didn't notice Shao Jingmo who was walking across from her. She almost bumped into his arms before she heard his voice: "Why are you thinking so hard?"
Qiao Qiao let out a sigh, her eyebrows loosened: "Grandpa's physical condition is getting worse and worse, I am very worried."
Shao Jingmo lowered his eyes lightly: "Don't worry too much, I will arrange a doctor to give him another comprehensive examination tomorrow."
"Then can I ask for leave to stay at home tomorrow?" She asked immediately.
Shao Jingmo: "Mrs. Shao, the company has never had a system that prohibits leave. If Mrs. Shao is not satisfied with the company's system, she can propose to rewrite it."
"..." Qiao Qiao was stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh and walked past him: "I see, then I'll go back to sleep first, I'm so sleepy~"
She breathed out and stretched again. Every body movement showed that she was sleepy.
Shao Jingmo watched her walking away, his eyes gradually condensed, then turned around, and went to Mr. Qiao's room.
-
The next day, Qiao Qiao asked for leave to stay at home, and accompanied Mr. Qiao to a comprehensive physical examination.
Didn't get worse.
Many symptoms are related to mood.
The doctor asked the family members to enlighten the old man's mood more, and this task fell on Qiao Qiao.
After a whole day, it can be seen with the naked eye that Mr. Qiao's mood has improved a lot, and he has an appetite for eating.
In the afternoon, Qiao Qiao accompanies her grandfather to trim the flower branches in the front yard.
This time is approaching five o'clock, and the person who delivered the dress came at this time.
"Hey, it's the dress delivery. I ordered two dresses. Tell them to come here." Mr. Qiao said holding the teapot.
Qiao Qiao wasn't too curious about whose dress it was. She put down the scissors and waved to the person over there: "Come here."
Soon, the person who delivered the dress walked over here.
Both of them were wearing work clothes, and one of them stepped forward and said to Mr. Qiao: "Mr. Qiao, this is the dress you ordered a while ago. It has been ironed. Do you want to check or try it on? If you have any questions, you can change it immediately." .”
Grandpa Qiao pointed at Qiao Qiao: "You can communicate with her, she is my granddaughter."
Qiao Qiao was at a loss, but she still responded, "Let me take a look first."
The two sets of dresses are for men and women respectively.
After reading it, Qiao Qiao knew what she knew. The design style of the women's style completely matched her aesthetics, and the men's style was very suitable for Shao Jingmo. This is the dress ordered by her grandfather for her and Shao Jingmo.
It doesn't take a lot of guesswork.
Grandpa just hoped that she and Shao Jingmo would go to the birthday banquet of the Patriarch of the Bai family.
After careful inspection, the two people who were waiting to deliver the dresses left. Qiao Qiao came over with two big boxes in her arms, and put the boxes in front of Mr. Qiao: "Grandpa, I have seen it. I like the design style and style of the dresses." like."
Grandpa Qiao took a sip of tea with the teapot in his arms, and said with a smile, "I didn't even say that this is the dress I ordered for you."
Qiao Qiao put her hands on the box: "Such a beautiful dress, if grandpa didn't order it for me, could it be that grandpa has other granddaughters?"
Grandpa Qiao said: "Of course you are the only granddaughter, but grandpa still has granddaughters."
Qiao Qiao blinked: "Cousin?"
"Well." Mr. Qiao said: "The dress is really not yours. I ordered it for your cousin. She will arrive tonight. I will ask Jing Mo to pick her up."
Qiao Qiao asked: "Will the aunt come?"
Old Man Qiao shook his head: "Your aunt won't come, only Xing Ruo will come."
Qiao Qiao was puzzled.
She didn't know why Lin Xingruo, the aunt's daughter, would come to their house at this time.
Until dusk fell, a black Bentley slowly drove into Joe's house.
Qiao Qiao stood on the steps and looked in that direction, her eyes full of anticipation for the car.
The door opens.
Shao Jingmo got out of the car, and the corners of Qiao Qiao's lips rose when she saw him, but the smile on her lips froze in the next second.
I saw Shao Jingmo stretching out his hand into the car, and a slender hand stretched out and put it in his palm.
Afterwards, Lin Xingruo got out of the car slowly.
