After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Chapter 102 This is what feels like home

Qiao Xing was a little surprised. This overtime maniac actually came to the company to find her?

She quickly packed her things and clocked out of get off work. She ran out of the company and looked around before she saw Qin Ce diagonally across from the company.

Qin Ce was riding a black electric bicycle, waiting for her on the opposite side of the road.

He was dressed in a suit and tie, with one foot on the sidewalk step on the right and the other on the scooter pedal, with a cigarette between his fingertips.

How to see how incoordination.

Qiao Xing rubbed his eyes, thinking he had seen it wrong. Where did he get the electric car?

But she still walked over and looked at Qin Ce's electric car, "Qin Ce, where did your car... come from?"

Qin Ce turned to look at her and handed her the helmet in the back seat, "I bought it."

"Ah? Don't I have one? Why do you want to buy one?"

Qin Ce said: "Yours is too pink and it's not suitable for me to ride on. Let's sell it."

Qiao Xing still didn't understand what he meant. She thought for a long time before reacting and asked in surprise, "Are you saying that you will still come to see me off in the future?"

"Well, I took your car to the company and they laughed at me."

"..." Qiao Xing wasn't sure if he was joking, but he always had that expression and couldn't tell anything.

"Okay then." Qiao Xing took the helmet from his hand and put it on her head, and got into his back seat. His car was relatively tall, so it was a bit difficult for her to get in.

"Are you seated?"

"All right."

As soon as he finished speaking, the electric car rushed out with a swish, and Qiao Xing was so scared that he hugged his waist.

His waist... is so strong.

Qin Ce was different from her when riding an electric bike. He abided by traffic rules and did not cross the motorized lanes, but took the non-motorized lanes.

There are special electric lanes in Yucheng, but many people like to take shortcuts and drive indiscriminately. Qiao Xing is one of those indiscriminate users.

Mainly because time is tight in the morning. If she doesn't dress randomly, she will be late.

Qin Ce took her to the vegetable market. The vegetable market here was slightly better and not as chaotic as the one in the old community.

Qiao Xing was surprised to find that he could actually buy groceries.

"Isn't the eggplant three and a half yuan? Why do you sell it for four and a half yuan?"

Qiao Xing pulled his sleeve and said, "It's a little more expensive here than there."

The boss also said: "Your girlfriend is right, the rent here is high, so all the dishes will be more expensive."

Qin Ce rubbed the tip of his nose. He took a few eggplants and handed them to the boss, "Pack them up for me."

Qiao Xing couldn't help laughing when she saw him bargaining stiffly.

"Qin Ce, what's wrong with you today? Are you stimulated by something? You're buying an electric car and you're here to buy groceries?"

Qin Ce glanced at her and said, "I'm afraid I'll starve to death by living alone."

Qiao Xing heard this sentence. He was joking. It turned out that he was angry with Grandpa Qin.

The grandfather and grandson are also quite interesting.

Qin Ce bought a bunch of vegetables, put them in the basket of the electric car, and drove her home.

When I got home, the old man was listening to opera on the radio on the sofa, humming a little tune.

"Grandpa, we are back." Qiao Xing greeted him.

The old man opened his eyes and glanced towards the two of them, "Buying so many vegetables?"

Qiao Xing smiled and said, "Qin Ce bought this. He can negotiate the price now."

"Oh, really?" The old man glanced at Qin Ce with a sinister look.

Listening to this, it feels like a parent is praising a college student, oh, you can calculate that one plus one equals two.It's full of ridicule.

Qin Ce didn't want to argue with the old man, so he carried the dishes to the kitchen.

The old man curled his lips, looking disgusted.

Qiao Xing doesn't quite understand why Grandpa Qin has such a big objection to his grandson.
Only the old man and Qin Ce knew what was going on.

Wasn't it just last night that the old man discovered that Qin Ce was trying to sleep in a separate room with Qiao Xing? As an old man, he naturally guessed it. I'm afraid nothing happened between them until now.

His fantasy of having a grandson was shattered.

His wife has been thrust into his hands, and he is so unsatisfied. How can the old man not be angry?
Qiao Xing came to the kitchen and Qin Ce was chopping vegetables. Not to mention, he was very good at cutting.

"Let me do it. Grandpa seems to be in a bad mood. Do you want to go and talk to him?"

"No, he'll be fine in two days." Qin Ce soaked the cut eggplant in water.

"Um...what's wrong with you?"

"nothing."

He didn't want to say it, and Qiao Xing was too embarrassed to continue asking. She took the rice cooker to wash the rice and cook it.

Qin Ce cut the vegetables and went out, but instead of chatting with the old man, he went to the bathroom and washed his own clothes, taking Qiao Xing's with him.

The old man looked at the back of him hanging clothes, and finally a smile appeared on his stern face.

This is what a home looks like.

Compared with living in a large empty villa, with clothes on your hands and food on your hands, you can live a more fulfilling and stable life.

This is why he lives in that kind of old community instead of retiring in a big villa.

But it wasn't over yet. After eating, the old man didn't go to bed. Instead, he supervised Qin Ce and tried to correct his problem of working in the middle of the night.

Qin Ce was working in the study, and he sat in the study and stared.

With such a pair of monitoring eyes staring at him, Qin Ce was also absent-minded in his work. Before ten o'clock, he turned off the computer.

"Go to sleep."

The old man said: "Aren't you going to work overtime for a while?"

Qin Ce's forehead throbbed with veins, "How can I work overtime while you are here?"

"Oh, according to what you want, if I weren't here, you would still work until midnight?"

"..."

The old man sighed and said sincerely: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to care about you. Let me tell you, your body is your own, and your life is your own. When you reach my age, you will know that apart from the things necessary for life, Some of the money, the rest is redundant.”

The old man stood up with his crutch and said: "And what you missed when you were young is something you can't buy back with more money when you are old."

After saying that, the old man walked out with his hunched body.

Qin Ce stared at his gray hair and rickety back, as if he could see the traces of time passing by.

It seemed like he was so old in the blink of an eye.

Qin Ce stood in the study for a long time before he walked out, closed the door of the study, took his pajamas, went to the bathroom to wash up, and arrived in the bedroom.

Qiao Xing had just finished blow-drying her hair, and her hair hung down on both sides, making her fair face only as big as a palm.

"Are you going to bed so early tonight?" Qiao Xing blinked, noticing the melancholy between his eyebrows, and couldn't help but pause, "What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

Qin Ce pinched his eyebrows and sat on the bed, "It's okay."

There must be something wrong with him, but he just didn't want to say it. Qiao Xing didn't know what she thought of. She walked to sit next to him and asked cautiously, "Did grandpa say something to you?"

Qin Ce turned to look at her, staring into her black and white eyes, and was silent for a moment before speaking.

"He wanted to hold his great-grandson."
