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

The sofa Qiao Xing was sitting on was relatively small. Qin Ce couldn't sit on it, so he could only sit on the edge of the sofa with his long legs stretched out to the side.

His hair was still wet and dripping with water.

She was wearing a long bathrobe with the collar slightly open. As long as Qiao Xing raised her head slightly, she could see Qin Ce's strong chest muscles.

She sighed inwardly.

I discovered for the first time that this is what it feels like to be able to see but not eat.

She didn't know if pregnancy caused an increase in hormones in her body. Every time like this, she felt a little nostalgic for before she was pregnant.

She also gradually understood Qin Ce.

Qiao Xing shook his head, driving away these unhealthy thoughts from his brain, and then returned to business.

"Do you think I should go to the Qiao family's birthday party?"

Qiao Xing's original thought was very simple. She and Mr. Qiao themselves didn't have much of a relationship. Among the older generation relatives, except for grandma, no one really loved her as their grandson.

Therefore, even though Mr. Qiao is her biological grandfather, this birthday party has nothing to do with her.

What's more, if you go, you will definitely see the Qiao family, including Qiao Hong.

Qiao Xing gets annoyed just thinking about it.

Qin Ce asked: "What are you struggling with?"

"It's not that I'm entangled. I just thought about my grandfather being seriously ill. Maybe this birthday party will be his last. If I don't go, I always feel guilty."

Especially when I think about Mr. Qiao and Mr. Qin being about the same age, Mr. Qin both likes to have children and grandchildren in the house, and everyone gathers together happily, let alone Mr. Qiao, who is not as healthy as Mr. Qin and may close his eyes today or tomorrow.

Qiao Xing didn't feel sorry for anyone. Anyone who wasn't born cold-blooded would have the same dilemma.

Although Qin Ce knew what Qiao Xing was thinking, he still didn't want Qiao Xing to go. "You are pregnant and it is not suitable to go to crowded places. If you really feel bad, I will ask Xin Jiu to give something to the old man." Or give red envelopes.”

Qiao Xing was awakened by Qin Ce's words.

Yes, she still has a child in her belly. There are many people at the birthday banquet, and all of them are aunts and uncles, as well as many relatives that Qiao Xing has never seen before.

If those relatives knew that Qiao Xing was pregnant, they wouldn't know how to talk and say some unpleasant or unpleasant things.

She could leave it alone, she couldn't let Qin Ce also become the target of public criticism. Maybe even Mr. Qin would not be spared by then.

Thinking of this, Qiao Xing suddenly stopped worrying. She said to Qin Ce: "I'm not going, and don't let Xin Jiu give any red envelopes. No one is going, and there is no point in giving anything. Maybe it will be there." Sometimes they would say it’s okay if we haven’t arrived yet, and they would give some money to show off their status.”

Qin Ce nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Qiao Xing thought about it and felt a lot better.

She yawned, stretched out her arms towards Qin Ce, and said with a smile: "I'm sleepy, take me to bed."

She had a good appetite recently and her face was round after eating. Qin Ce stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek, his eyes full of doting, "Okay."

Qin Ce picked her up easily, and the two of them were close together. Qiao Xing could clearly hear Qin Ce's strong heartbeat and his chest muscles that were close at hand.

Qiao Xing looks at plum blossoms every day to quench her thirst, and can only satisfy her craving by watching videos of fitness bloggers. Qin Ce's figure is much more perfect than those bloggers.

Now that they were so close, Qiao Xing couldn't hold it back anymore, so she quietly reached out her hand and pinched it.It feels really good.

But the next second, she heard Qin Ce's suppressed voice above her head, "Qiao Xing."

Qiao Xing immediately calmed down, hugged Qin Ce's arm as if nothing had happened, and smiled at him, "What's the matter?"

Qin Ce sighed helplessly. He was confident because he was pregnant, but he couldn't do anything to her.

He put Qiao Xing on the bed and covered her with a quilt, but he did not get into bed.

Qiao Xing asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

"……bath."

Early the next morning, Qiao Xing went to Wang Ye's shop.

The decoration of the store is already halfway through, and the general appearance has been revealed. Wang Ye has been living in the store these days, keeping an eye on it. Sometimes he is so busy that he can't even eat.

No, at this moment he had just made a bucket of instant noodles and before he put it in his mouth, he saw the master working not far away and said hurriedly: "Hey, hey! Master, you are not pretending like that. You pretended to be wrong."

I finally finished that bit of work, but when I came back, my noodles were already cold.

Wang Ye didn't care and just ate. While he was eating, his cell phone rang.

When he took it out and looked at it, his expression changed instantly.

"Hey?"

"Why are you calling me? I was in a meeting just now and didn't look at my phone."

Wang Ye snorted angrily, "When others are busy, you are busy, and when others are not busy, you are also busy. People who don't know better think you are the president of some company."

Bai Yi frowned, "Wang Ye, can you speak properly?"

Wang Ye was anxious, "Why didn't I talk properly? How long have you been there? Linlin said he missed you, and I asked you to come back and see him sometime. You just said you were busy and asked me not to disturb you. Bai Have you forgotten that Linlin is your son, not mine? How can you be such a mother if you leave your own child here without caring about it?"

As soon as Qiao Xing walked in, he saw a bitter and hateful expression on his face.

This was the first time that Wang Ye got angry in front of Bai Yi, but although he was angry, his words were not intimidating at all, more like complaining.

"I know you have your job, so for such a long time, I will not disturb you if I can. I'm afraid of delaying your business, but you can't just make money and ignore the children, right? Fortunately, the person you married is I, if I were another man, I wonder if you could still be so relieved and just leave the child here, he might have divorced you long ago!"

The phone suddenly became quiet, and Wang Ye finished speaking without waiting for Bai Yi to respond.

"Speak, you are busy again!"

"No." Bai Yi paused slightly, and his tone was a little more apologetic, "I know you have been renovating the store recently, and you have to take care of Linlin in the spare time. Thank you for your hard work."

Her words made Wang Ye confused. He opened his mouth and said awkwardly: "No...it's not hard. I just don't want Linlin to feel that his mother cares little about him. I understand you." I’m busy, but I can’t ignore my children even when I’m busy.”

Besides, she stayed there and let him take care of the children alone. They got married anyway. People who knew about it thought Bai Yi was busy with his own career. People who didn't know thought that Wang Ye was divorced at a young age. I'm taking care of my kids myself.

"Well, I understand. I will finish my work here as soon as possible and rush back. Linlin has to trouble you to take care of yourself for a while, as well as yourself." Bai Yi pursed his lips, "Don't work too hard. Pay more attention to rest." (End of Chapter)
