Married for a long time

Chapter 158 [Qiao Su] Then who do you have thoughts about?

The meeting lasted for about four to 10 minutes, mainly reporting on the progress of the planning plans of the two groups and brainstorming ideas for improvement.

After coming out of the meeting, the coffee and milk tea bought by Ruan Fu also arrived.

Their workstations happened to be facing each other, and they could slide to each other's side with a slight push of the chair.

But Su Li is a well-behaved person. She is usually very quiet and talks little. She rarely even participates in gossip discussions. When she does, they basically force her to socialize.

"Thank you."

Su Li took the milk tea and said softly.

"You're welcome."

Just as Ruan Fu was about to turn back, the girl at the workstation next to Su Li came back from fetching water. She glanced at the direction of the manager's office and gossiped, "Su Li, I saw your brother's extraordinary temperament from all the way yesterday. , majestic and majestic, with jade trees facing the wind. Although I am short-sighted, he must be a handsome guy, right?"

Hearing this, Ruan Fu looked at Su Li with a smile.

Su Li took a sip of milk tea and suddenly felt a bad premonition in her heart.

As expected, the female colleague looked gossipy and asked with a smile, "Such a handsome brother, does he have a girlfriend? We have many single beauties here. Ruan Fu, you seem to be single, right?"

Ruan Fu, who was suddenly called by name, suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "You... are interested, just tell yourself, why did you drag me along."

"I... just suddenly remembered that you are also single, so..." The girl was embarrassed by Ruan Fu and felt a little embarrassed.

She and Ruan Fu are actually not very compatible.

She was also thinking that now that such a handsome guy appeared and was so rich, she didn't believe that she, Ruan Fu, would not be tempted.

"My brother has a fiancée."

Seeing that the two of them were about to confront each other overtly and covertly again, Su Li interrupted her softly.

End this war without gunpowder.

As expected, the girl and Ruan Fu were stunned when they heard this.

"Hey, all the handsome guys belong to other people." Ruan Fu was the first to react, and sighed with a smile, "Business about the things at hand first, Lao Zheng will see us later, and he will scold us again for holding a group meeting."

Small group meeting rooms are equal to gossip.

Especially during such a busy time, if you are caught you will either be fined or scolded.

The girl next to her was named Zhan Tingting. She was very disdainful of Ruan Fu's self-righteous and hypocritical attitude and reaction.

Still quietly approaching Su Li, she asked in a low voice, "Su Li, what does your family do? Why do you, a wealthy lady, come to work here with us? I remember you are not from Nandu."

"He didn't run away from home, did he?"

"Zhan Tingting, are you checking your household registration?"

Ruan Fu frowned in displeasure. She saw that Su Li didn't want to answer and didn't know how to decline politely.

Knowing that she was not very good at socializing, he directly helped her and said, "Why do you care about what other people do at home? Do you still want others to open the back door for you, or do you want to get some benefits from this?"

"They are willing to go to work and have good abilities, unlike some people who are like embroidered pillows and are useless."

"Who are you saying embroidered pillows are useless?" Zhan Tingting immediately became anxious after hearing this.

"Whoever responds will do so." Ruan Fu sneered, "It seems that you are still a little self-aware. When it comes to embroidered pillows, you know how to match them. Congratulations."

"you!"

Seeing the two people arguing more and more fiercely, the other people's eyes were attracted. Su Li was a little dumbfounded, and quickly stepped forward to grab Ruan Fu and said, "You... stop arguing."

Then he looked at Zhan Tingting and said, "We are just colleagues. I don't need to tell you my personal affairs so clearly, and I don't like others to ask questions."

She clenched her fists, but her words were neither humble nor arrogant.

You are soft-tempered, good-tempered, and do not know how to refuse, but this does not mean that you will allow others to bully you or disrespect you.

This is what the Qiao family has taught her over the years.

Zhan Tingting didn't catch both ends, curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and glanced at the brand-name bag she placed in the middle of the desk compartment. She spoke in a strange way, "I just asked casually, just out of curiosity. How stingy. Miss Qianjin is just like that." It’s different.”

"Why didn't I see you and her being so good together before? Now that I know she is the daughter of a rich family, it's so shameless to rush to fawn over her."

She glanced at Ruan Fu with disdain and disgust, turned around and sat back at her desk.

Not to be outdone, Ruan Fu retorted, "Do you think everyone has the same dirty thoughts as you?"

"Who are you calling dirty..."

"What are you arguing about? You don't have anything to do, right? How much longer do you want to work overtime? Would that just be in vain?"

The dispute between the two was temporarily stopped when the team leader came forward.

Zhan Tingting was unwilling and glared at Ruan Fu fiercely before turning around.

Su Li sighed inwardly, it was quite inexplicable that it became the source of their quarrel.

She has been in this company for four or five months, and her relationship with everyone is actually pretty good, but they are not friends, just colleagues with good relationships.

She doesn't want to deliberately become good friends with anyone, and she doesn't like to discuss her personal affairs with her colleagues.

So just now Zhan Tingting was openly exploring her private affairs, her tone was a bit sour, and her attitude was a bit targeted.

She felt really uncomfortable.

----

Qiao Peiyu did have work matters to discuss in Nandu.

It's just that these matters should have been handled by Jiang Jianlin, but at that time, a foreign brand partner had some problems, and Jiang Jianlin needed to deal with them.

Of course, Qiao Peiyu's body was not suitable for going abroad, so he went to Nandu for him.

There are two newly developed shopping malls in Nandu, which are far apart. Both shopping malls are bidding for brands.

In fact, the main brands have already been negotiated, and the secondary ones have also been oriented. It is just up to the people in charge of these two shopping malls to finalize it.

But he chose to use this to temporarily trap himself in Nandu.

The interview at 09:30 lasted for almost an hour.

Just after sending the people from the brand away, Qiao Peiyu's cell phone rang.

It was Yu Qingyuan calling.

The assistant on the side immediately fell silent. Seeing that he answered the phone, he immediately retreated to a distance.

"mom."

"The day after tomorrow is the dinner with the Ling family. Will you come back?" Yu Qingyuan's voice on the other end of the phone was a little helpless and strong.

It seemed like he was giving an ultimatum, not asking, but emphasizing the matter.

"Mom, my affairs are still..."

"That's how you prevaricated me three days ago. I'll give you one more day. You must be home before ten o'clock tomorrow night."

Qiao Peiyu frowned, "I don't have any thoughts about Ling Sheng." "Then who do you have thoughts about?"

"..."

Almost, the name Su Li blurted out.

"You will be thirty soon, don't you want to start a family?"

"I haven't even passed the tribulation of thirty, am I going to harm others by getting married so early?" His voice was gentle and gentle, without any ups and downs, but these words still gave Yu Qingyuan goosebumps.

Even my heart skipped a beat.

She moved her lips, "Ayu, those are all superstitions. Aren't you in better health now? You will definitely be safe next year."

"Whether it's superstition or science, let's wait until next year to start a family. I really don't have this idea now."

Yu Qingyuan on the other end of the phone fell silent.

Qiao Peiyu's words just now captured Yu Qingyuan's seven inches.

"But... we have already made an appointment with the Ling family, and now..."

"Just tell them the truth."

"That won't work!"

Yu Qingyuan denied it without thinking. She took a breath and said, "In that case, I'll listen to you. I'll tell you where the Ling family is. However, Nandu is much colder than S City. , especially the cold air these days. I saw in the weather forecast that it will only be two or three degrees. It’s important that you are in good health and don’t stay there for too long.”

"If you don't want to come back because you have dinner with the Ling family, you can rest assured now."

Qiao Peiyu knew that what she said was true, but that didn't mean that she wasn't deliberately trying to trick him.

"I'm really busy. I just came out from a meeting."

Okay, if her son doesn't fall for it, there's nothing she can do about it.

She suddenly changed the subject, "By the way, have you been in contact with Ah Li in the past few days?"

"Ah."

"How is she doing?"

"Fortunately."

"That's good. She is a child who always announces good news but not bad news. She always says yes every time she calls or video-messages. I don't know what she is doing when she goes south. She refuses to come back no matter what."

Yu Qingyuan sighed quietly, "You should take care of her more over there, and by the way, advise her that it would be better to go back to S City. The family is around, and I feel at ease. I can also feel relieved. If her temper is outside, Even if you feel wronged, you won’t say another word to us.”

"Ok, I know."

"Although Ah Ji has a good temper and is easy to talk to, she is actually quite stubborn at heart. It is difficult to change things she has decided. You probably can't persuade her. I'd better give her a call later to talk about it."

Qiao Peiyu pursed her lips. Indeed, although she was soft-tempered, she was extremely stubborn and hard-boned.

For example, in their case, they were stubborn and didn't know how to turn around when they entered a dead end. They rushed in with all their strength, regardless of whether they would get a bloody head or not.

And he likes to keep everything in his mind and won't talk about it.

Just like in the freshman year of high school, she was hated by a female classmate in her class for some unknown reason. In the physical education volleyball class, the female classmate deliberately hit the ball on her back, which caused a big bruise. She lifted it a little. The arm will hurt.

Because she didn't say anything or care about anything at that time, the female classmate became even more aggressive.

He deliberately broke her water glass, scribbled on her homework book, and threw her school bag.

She kept these things in her heart and endured them silently.

At that time, she was always afraid of causing trouble to the Qiao family and adding unnecessary burden to the Qiao family.

Because the bruise on her back hadn't gone away for a week, Qiao Xiya suddenly broke in and discovered it when she was changing clothes at home over the weekend.

Qiao Xiya was shocked at the time and asked her who did it. She said she accidentally hit it.

Qiao Xiya naturally didn't believe it. There was a friend's sister in her class who happened to be the same age as Su Li, but in a different class.

It happened that junior high school and senior high school were both on the same campus, so I found out through twists and turns that Su Li was being bullied.

That Monday in the cafeteria at noon, Qiao Xiya spotted the female classmate who was bullying Su Li. She directly put the flip flop in her hand on the female classmate's face, pulled her hair and kicked her twice.

"It's you, you damn bitch, who bullies my sister, right? Do you think I, Qiao Xiya, am a vegetarian? If you blind your dog eyes, everyone will bully you. Today, I will teach you, little bitch, a lesson for your parents." Smash it."

The female classmate was a little stunned by the beating. After she realized what she was doing, she started to fight back. There were friends beside her.

Not long after, Qiao Xiya fell behind. Fortunately, she also had classmates beside her.

Then eight or nine of Wu Yangyang's classmates were called into the principal's office.

Su Li was not in the cafeteria at the time. After learning about the incident, he immediately went to the principal's office. The head teachers of each class were present and called away the students who helped in the fight to write a review.

They were the only clients left in the office, and the head teachers had already notified their parents.

When Su Li saw Qiao Xiya fighting that female classmate, she understood what was going on.

When the principal wanted to criticize Qiao Xiya, he came out to stop her, refuted the principal's words, and also told the female classmate's bullying behavior, and firmly asked the female classmate to apologize to herself and Qiao Xiya.

The female classmate refused, and even the parents of both parties came, but nothing came of it.

After Yu Qingyuan learned the whole story, she couldn't hold back anymore. She directly raised her hand and slapped the female classmate, "You can bully my daughter? Who do you think you are? This matter is not over!"

After that, he dragged Qiao Xiya and Su Li out of the school without even looking at the principal and class teacher.

Afterwards, Yu Qingyuan took them both to the hospital.

When she saw the dark purple bruises on Su Li's back, she gasped. It was eight or nine days old and still bruised so hard. It was conceivable that such a light volleyball was going to hit someone. How much force does it take to reach this level?

The follow-up to this incident was that Yu Qingyuan sued the female classmate and the school for failing to do anything for bullying.

Although it was mediated in the end, the female classmate was expelled from the school, her family's company was sanctioned by the Qiao family and several other companies, and the school's reputation was also diminished.

Su Li and Qiao Xiya both transferred schools.

It's okay to have a good temper and be kind to others, but you can't blindly suffer and be bullied. This is weakness and incompetence.

This principle is a lesson that Yu Qingyuan taught Su Li through practical actions.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yu Qingyuan brought the topic back, "So, when do you plan to come back?"

"In a few days."

"That's what you said three days ago." Yu Qingyuan sighed again, "Ayu, mom is worried about your health..."

"I understand, it will really take a few days." He narrowed his eyes, an undercurrent surged in his warm eyes, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, "Grandpa is going to give birth next month, right?"

"Yes, a normal birthday."

"Mom, grandpa is 84 this year. He is so old. He definitely hopes that the younger generations can celebrate his birthday with him every year. It will be crowded and lively."

"That's true. Your grandpa wants to come and like the excitement. You, Xiaoya and Ah Li will have to be there when the time comes."

Qiao Peiyu's tone became cheerful, "Well, when grandpa is over, there will only be half a month left to celebrate the New Year."
