Chapter 19 Frustrated, Manuscript Lost

Why didn't you win an award?Qiao Jiaojiao looked at the champion and the winners of various awards announced on the big screen in front of her, she couldn't believe it.I didn't even get a small consolation prize, this result was unexpected.

Among them, Gu Qing must be playing tricks!Qiao Jiaojiao originally only knew that the competition was organized by the Gu family, but she didn't expect to find out that Gu Qing was also the chief judge when she asked later, and he had the final say on all matters.

At that time, she was still wondering why Gu Qing wasn't there, but when she saw Gu Qing coming from outside, she realized that Gu Qing had been there all along, but she didn't come to the scene just to avoid suspicion.

No, she must ask clearly, she doesn't believe that Gu Qing is a person who doesn't care about the occasion, bringing personal grievances to the competition, this is definitely not his style.

As a result, Qiao Jiaojiao went to the back of the open-air stage with unthinkable in her heart, but she didn't expect to see a scene that made her heart feel cold.

Qiao Jiaojiao stood outside the backstage and looked at the lounge through the gap, but saw Gu Qing hugging the winner of the competition, Liu Xiaoxiao, and said with a sinister smile: "Xiaoxiao, just look at me and talk about the winner of this competition." The champion belongs to you."

While talking and preparing to kiss Liu Xiaoxiao's flaming red lips, Qiao Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat, it turned out to be like this...

Needless to say, the thing in front of this is called unspoken rules. I didn't expect that Gu Qing would do such a thing. Qiao Jiaojiao felt as if she had fallen into a trough for a while, and she didn't want to go in and question her again.

Qiao Jiaojiao waited for the end of the competition with a tangled mood.She really didn't want to admit that she actually had a little feeling for Gu Cheng, she felt that it must be because of the failure of the competition that made her have such an illusion.

"All contestants, if there are no winners, please remember to come to the field to collect your own entries." A crisp female voice came from the radio.

Qiao Jiaojiao, who had just walked out of the backstage, was taken aback for a moment, she almost forgot that being disturbed by such a segment of Gu Qing really didn't look like her.

It's just a design competition!Qiao Jiaojiao shook her head to shake off the irritability in her heart, and walked onto the stage calmly, with the red carpet under her feet. Her calm appearance made everyone who knew her feel that Qiao Jiaojiao was a girl from the beginning. A woman who refuses to admit defeat.

In front of the table full of design drawings, Qiao Jiaojiao glanced at the numbered design drawings, but there was no one for her.

Qiao Jiaojiao thought to herself, there should be too many manuscripts, so there are no manuscripts.She waited until the manuscripts on the table were taken away one by one, and when she looked at the empty table, Qiao Jiaojiao realized that her manuscripts had really disappeared.

Looking at the staff who were about to leave in front of her, Qiao Jiaojiao quickly reached out to stop her.Although she was a little anxious in her heart, she habitually put on a cold look.

"Miss, please wait a moment, may I ask where the manuscript No. 44 went?"

The staff looked at the documents in their hands, flipped through them, and returned Qiao Jiaojiao with a calm smile: "Manuscript No. 44 was taken away from the very beginning."

What was taken away?How could this be?Didn't it mean that if it wasn't for me, it would be impossible to be taken away?Finally, panic appeared in Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes.

"Miss, I'm here in person, but I really haven't received the manuscript. Is there something wrong?" Qiao Jiaojiao confirmed to the staff again.

However, the staff already seemed a little impatient. She glanced at Qiao Jiaojiao and recognized that Qiao Jiaojiao was the protagonist whose work had been plagiarized before. He looked at the file in his hand.

"Miss, you see that it has been clearly ticked, and your ID number has also been filled in." The worker pointed to the red seal printed on the document in black and white.

There was a roar in Qiao Jiaojiao's head, who did this?Qiao Jiaojiao stared at the ID number and her photo on the paper in front of her, there was nothing wrong with it.

She stroked her head and calmed down, showing a harmless smile: "I'm sorry for delaying your time."

"It's all right." The staff waved their hands, turned around and left the stage.

The figure of Qiao Jiaojiao was left on the table. Qiao Jiaojiao raised her hand to look at the birds flying by in the sky. She narrowed her eyes slightly. The manuscript disappeared and the finished product also disappeared. Does it mean that So it's time for the agreement between her and the past to come to an end?
Qiao Jiaojiao was carrying a white handbag, and she was walking on the street in different ways.At this time, she was suddenly very dazed, indifferent on the surface, and hesitant in her heart, but she didn't expect to be stopped by a gentle voice.

"Jiaojiao!"

When Lei Ye looked at Xiao Qiao's figure, he always felt a little familiar. When he saw the profile of that person clearly, he finally couldn't help but let out a cry.

On weekdays, Qiao Jiaojiao would never look so lost no matter what, Lei Ye's heart was full of doubts, when Qiao Jiaojiao turned around, he saw a little bit of pain in the corner of Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes. starlight.

That shiny point, although very small, Lei Ye was still slightly taken aback, had she ever cried?Lei Ye didn't know why Qiao Jiaojiao appeared here, but seeing the disappointment in Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes, he still couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Qiao Jiaojiao didn't want others to see her weakness, she shook her head, and said that lightly to Lei Ye.

"Jiaojiao, if you really consider me a friend, tell the truth!" Lei Ye was a little helpless. He could tell what kind of character Qiao Jiaojiao was at a glance, but now he saw a lot of things about Gu Jiaojiao. Qing's matter, I am very worried about Qiao Jiaojiao. If Qiao Jiaojiao is unhappy, then he can help her.

"It's really nothing." Qiao Jiaojiao didn't want to tell Lei Ye the matter, because she knew that even if Lei Ye listened to it, it would be impossible for her to find her missing 'destiny'.

Seeing that Qiao Jiaojiao refused to speak, Lei Ye looked at the indifference on Qiao Jiaojiao's face, and changed the subject: "I heard that there is a delicious restaurant nearby, you probably haven't eaten yet, we finally met, why don't we go Have a meal."

"Yes." Seeing Lei Ye's concern, Qiao Jiaojiao agreed with a soft heart.

Qiao Jiaojiao and Lei Ye walked on the Mengyin alley, they were silent all the time, the atmosphere was obviously very strange.Qiao Jiaojiao vaguely remembered that Lei Ye had said that he had returned to the military area, why did he come back now?

"By the way, didn't you go back to the military area? Why are you here now?" Qiao Jiaojiao broke the atmosphere first. Although it didn't fit her personality, Qiao Jiaojiao thought that since Lei Ye invited herself to dinner, she couldn't just So silent, without saying a word.

"I just came back to visit relatives." Lei Ye was taken aback for a moment, and he didn't expect Qiao Jiaojiao to ask such a sentence, "I've already dealt with the affairs of the military region, and the leader let me go for a few days." False, I came back naturally. It didn't happen that when I came out, I saw you walking on the street. "

"It's really a coincidence." Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing.

The two happily walked to the door of the restaurant. The waiter with a professional smile on his face stood in front of the restaurant door and saw two people pushing the door in.

"Excuse me, are there two?"

"Yes."

"Didn't you make an appointment before?"

"No."

After the waiter asked politely and got a standard answer, the waiter quickly made a gesture of invitation, and led Qiao Jiaojiao into the restaurant.

The soft music inside was played by Qiao Jiaojiao's favorite saxophone. Although the sky outside was not yet engulfed by night, warm candlelight was lit everywhere in the restaurant.

Qiao Jiaojiao, who was about to follow the waiter to the second floor, stepped out when a familiar voice broke into Qiao Jiaojiao's ears.

"Xiaoxiao, what do you want to eat?" Qiao Jiaojiao turned around and saw that it was indeed Gu Qing. The condensed Gu Qing glanced at the menu on the table. Although the two of them were in the box at the corner, However, since the boxes are covered by crystal curtains, natural sounds can still be heard.

An Xiaoxiao, who was sitting opposite Gu Qing, had already changed the makeup on her face to light makeup. She looked at the menu in Gu Qing's hand calmly, and said calmly, "You can eat whatever you order."

"Jiaojiao, why are you standing there?" Lei Ye's voice caught Gu Qing's attention.

When Gu Qing met Qiao Jiaojiao's gaze, there was a shrewdness in Gu Qing's eyes, but when he saw Lei Ye standing behind Qiao Jiaojiao, his face was gloomy for a moment.

There is a spark in Gu Qing's dark eyes, this woman is dating another man behind his back!

Lei Ye looked at Qiao Jiaojiao's stiff back, followed Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes, and saw Qiao Jiaojiao's husband, the president of the Gu Corporation, and there was a woman sitting opposite him.This is obviously in response to the rumors in the newspaper, this Gu Qing is really not a good man, how could a playboy bring happiness to Jiaojiao in front of him?
"You actually came on a date with another man behind my back! Qiao Jiaojiao, you are so courageous!" Gu Qing threw the menu in her hand on the table, and her voice was so loud that it attracted the applause of the guests who were dining in other private rooms. look.

They poked their heads out one after another to see what was happening outside.

Qiao Jiaojiao responded coldly: "Only state officials are allowed to set fires, but ordinary people are not allowed to light lamps?"

Her words made Gu Qing's head feel like adding fuel to the fire. Gu Qing got up and walked towards Qiao Jiaojiao, but Qiao Jiaojiao didn't want to wait for Gu Qing to come, so she turned to Lei Ye and said: " let's go."

Gu Qing, who was dressed in a black suit, grabbed Qiao Jiaojiao's arm.In Gu Qing's heart, it was very clear that An Xiaoxiao had nothing to do with him. He saw Qiao Jiaojiao before, so he did that on purpose. An Xiaoxiao was his little aunt, his mother's sister!Otherwise, it would be impossible for An Xiaoxiao to have the courage to look coldly at him.

But for Lei Ye in front of him, Gu Qing thought about it in a blink of an eye. This person had flirted with Qiao Jiaojiao at the wedding before, but she didn't expect that the two of them would develop into this kind of dating now.

"If you don't make it clear, don't even think about leaving here!"
