Chapter 743
743 Help me again (1)
The sound of a man’s shower could be heard from the bathroom. Qu Huaian sat on the sofa with his eyes lowered, as if he was thinking about something.
He had officially acquired Honglu group today, so he should have a lot of things to deal with in the company. Why was he suddenly here for lunch?
Even if he had returned, he should have humiliated her as he pleased, but he didn’t. He only mocked her with a few words and said something full of possessiveness.
She was still thinking about how Xie tingxi was going to take revenge on her when the sound of water in the bathroom stopped. Not long after, Xie tingxi came out of the bathroom.
He was wearing a gray sleeping robe and no shoes. His bare feet stepped on the floor, and he was holding a clean towel in his hand.
He threw the towel on qu Huaian’s head, then sat down beside her. &Quot; help me dry my hair. &Quot;
Qu Huaian took the towel, stood up, and walked behind him. He used the towel to wipe the water from his hair.
His wet hair was very soft, just like how he looked gentle and harmless, but hid danger. Once she let her guard down, she would be pushed into eternal damnation.
Xie tingxi didn’t know what she was thinking about him at the moment. He only felt her soft fingers running through his hair, and her fingertips intentionally or unintentionally brushed against his scalp. It was like the claws of a seabird sweeping across the sea, setting off ripples and splitting them apart.
His Adam’s apple rolled a few times involuntarily, and the initial frustration gradually dissipated.
With Honglu group being acquired, Jiang rang would completely disappear from this circle for a very, very long time …
One day, she would forget that man. From body to heart, she would belong to herself completely.
Qu Huaian dried his hair until it was half-dry. The man held her wrist and said in a calm tone, ” “It’s done.”
“I’ll bring the towel in.” She withdrew her hand and turned to walk to the bathroom.
Xie tingxi looked at her slender back and his breathing tightened. He thought of the doctor’s words and suppressed the distracting thoughts that surged up for a moment.
Don’t worry, the future is long.
Xie tingxi had lunch with qu Huaian at noon, and after they were done, he went back to his room to change his clothes.
Before he left, he even instructed the Butler, ” take good care of her. Get someone to buy her whatever she wants to eat. Send a driver to take her wherever she wants to go. Make sure she takes her medicine on time. &Quot;
He had just acquired Honglu group, and he still had a lot of things to do, so he couldn’t take care of her.
The Butler knew that he really cared about Madam and did not dare to be perfunctory. He quickly said, ” &Quot; I’ll remember that. Don’t worry, Sir. I’ll definitely take good care of Madam. &Quot;
Xie tingxi nodded, looked up at the second floor, and then turned to leave.
Although he didn’t restrict qu Huaian’s personal freedom, other than picking up Xie Yumu, she didn’t have anywhere to go.
She didn’t tell Xie Yumu that she was hospitalized. She only said that she went home to see her parents.
Xie Yumu was curious about her parents. &Quot; they’re my step-grandparents too. What kind of people are they? ” Is he good to you?”
Qu Huaian thought of those two people and his eyes darkened. He was not willing to speak ill of them, but he also did not want to deceive Mumu.
“They only gave birth to me.”
“They definitely don’t treat you well. Otherwise, you’d definitely be very happy when you talk about them.” Xie Yumu was usually playful, but he wasn’t stupid. He could feel the change in qu Huaian’s mood.
&Quot; don’t be sad. You’re my stepmother now. If you treat me well, I’ll definitely be filial to you and treat you well when I grow up. &Quot;
Hearing this, qu Huai ‘an smiled. &Quot; then I’ll be counting on you. &Quot;
Xie Yumu patted his chest and promised, ” “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do what I say, but …”
She wanted to say something but stopped, feeling a little worried.
“But what?” She asked.
“You won’t be biased when you and bad guy Xie have a child, will you?” Xie Yumu asked in a worried tone.
Qu Huaian was taken aback. He did not expect him to be worried about this, but he also reminded himself.
“I won’t.” Xie tingxi and I will never have a child.
Xie Yumu was relieved. &Quot; as long as you’re not biased, I won’t bully anyone, no matter if it’s your younger brother or sister. We’ll split the inheritance 50 – 50. &Quot;
“No need, his money is all yours.” She had never thought of taking Xie tingxi’s property.
She would not fight with Mumu over these things for his child.
Xie Yumu was touched to death. &Quot; sister qu, don’t worry! In the future, when old man Xie dies, I will definitely take care of your younger brother and sister. An elder brother is like a father. I definitely won’t leave you guys behind.”
She didn’t know what melodramatic TV series he had been watching recently, but he was so full of himself.
The car stopped at the entrance of the kindergarten. Qu Huaian took his subordinate’s car and sent him to the teacher at the entrance. He only felt at ease when he saw him walk in.
When she turned around and was about to get into the car, she saw Jiang rang standing by the side of the road. He was wearing a wrinkled gray shirt, his hair was messy, and his expression was Haggard.
“Are you free? I’ll treat you to a cup of coffee.” Jiang rang took the initiative to speak.
Qu Huaian did not refuse.
It was too early and there were not many people in the coffee shop. The two of them found a place to sit down.
Qu Huaian ordered a cup of oolong tea while Jiang rang ordered a cup of hot coffee.
The waiter quickly served drinks for the two of them.
Jiang rang took a sip of his coffee and looked at her with worry and uneasiness in his eyes. &Quot; Anan, are you alright? ”
“How do you want me to answer?” Qu Huaian looked at the White mist floating from the oolong tea in front of him, which slowly drifted toward the unrecognizable face.
“If I say it’s okay, will you not feel guilty? If I say no, can you take it away?”
&Quot; an ‘an … &Quot; Jiang rang’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and he looked even more apologetic. &Quot; I’m sorry. &Quot;
Qu Huaian was silent. He picked up his oolong tea and took a sip, then turned his head to look at the warm family of three outside.
It was a pity that she would never be able to experience such a simple and ordinary happiness in her life.
&Quot; an ‘an, Xie tingxi is too powerful. He has the entire Xie family behind him, as well as mo shenbai and Bo Qi. I can’t win against him at all. Now, not only is my family’s company gone, but even my father is in the hospital because of my anger. &Quot;
Jiang rang said bitterly, pushing all the blame to Xie tingxi’s family background.
It wasn’t that he wasn’t capable enough, but that the Jiang family couldn’t compare to the Xie family.
Qu Huaian lowered his head and looked at the cup, not saying a word.
Seeing that she didn’t have any reaction, Jiang rang couldn’t help but say, ” “Anan, can you help me again?”
A trace of ridicule flashed across qu Huaian’s lowered eyes. He raised his head and asked with an expressionless face,”How do you want me to help you?”
Jiang rang rubbed his hands uneasily. &Quot; you’re Xie tingxi’s wife now. He should be good to you. Can you help me get some money? ” Not much, just five million is enough. With this five million as the starting capital, I can start all over again. This time, I definitely won’t lose to him again.”
