Due to issues with the betrothal gift, Qiao Xing's two-year relationship with her boyfriend collapsed overnight. Feeling disheartened, her elderly neighbor insisted his grandson go on a blind d...

Chapter 247 How many are you planning to raise?

Qin Ce twitched the corner of his mouth. Another one who overslept.

"You don't need to come anymore, they've already left."

"What!" Qin Yi's voice cracked. "I..."

Qin Ce said, "I have something else to tell you."

"What is it?" Qin Yi's voice had become weak and listless, and he seemed a little sad.

"There's a city tournament for a game you should participate in. The champion gets three million, and you give me the money if you win."

Qiao Xing's eyes widened when he heard this. He... was he really that rude?

Qin Yi was also a little confused. He thought he had gotten too excited and was hallucinating.

Is his brother someone who's short of three million?

"Are you going or not?"

Qin Yi hesitated for a moment, "Can I say I'm not going?"

"cannot."

"Then I'll go..."

Qin Ce hung up the phone and turned to look at Yang Han: "It's ready."

Yang Han's lips twitched violently, "No... why did you call him?"

Qin Ce ignored him, helped Qiao Xing into the car, and drove off, leaving Yang Han far behind.

Yang Han scratched his head. He had never played with Qin Yi before and didn't know how good he was. However, he could try playing a couple of rounds with him. If he was too bad, he would have to go and bother Qin Ce instead.

Qiao Xing sat in the car, staring blankly at Qin Ce, "You just asked Qin Yi to participate in the competition?"

"Um."

"Should I have him give you the bonus?"

"right."

"He agreed?"

"Agreed."

Qiao Xing: "..." Suddenly she didn't know what to say. She probably didn't quite understand how deep the relationship between the two brothers had become.

They gave away 600,000 without hesitation.

She couldn't help but sigh as she recalled the unpleasant incident involving the 500,000 yuan and her aunt.

Qin Ce glanced at her and said, "Didn't you want to raise children? Now that you have a million, how many are you planning to raise?"

Qiao Xing was feeling melancholy when she heard this, and her face instantly turned red.

Why are you bringing this up now...?

"That's not what you said."

Qiao Xing didn't know how to answer him. How many children she had... was that something she could decide?

The topic ended with Qiao Xing's silence, but Qin Ce was indeed already thinking about raising a few.

One is too lonely, two are just right.

Ideally, it should be one boy and one girl, but it's not ideal if both are boys or girls.

Soon, Qin Ce took Qiao Xing home and then went to the entrance of the residential area to pick up Lin Xi.

He told Wang Qin about sending Lin Xi to tutoring classes, and Wang Qin was shocked and waved her hands repeatedly in refusal, saying, "How much money would that cost? Let's not do it."

"Then don't send her here anymore. We don't have time to help you take care of your child."

Those words were a bit harsh, and Wang Qin's face turned pale and then red. "That's not what I meant..."

Qin Ce said, "I know what you mean, but this is the only way right now. You don't need to spend any money. Just send her to a tutoring class, or you can take her to work with you."

He didn't like beating around the bush and didn't have time to waste on Wang Qin, so he naturally said what he wanted to say directly.

Wang Qin hesitated for a long time. She looked at Lin Xi, her mind in turmoil.

Qin Ce glanced at his watch and said, "I have a meeting later. Have you thought it through?"

"Then, let's do it your way, about the money..."

"You don't need to worry about the money. Just agree. You've already made up your mind, right?" Qin Ce looked at her expressionlessly.

It has to be said that when he had no expression, he was so intimidating that Wang Qin was speechless.

She hesitated for a while before finally nodding, "Well, then, that's settled."

"Okay, you can come with me. From now on, you can just take her to the tutoring class directly. You don't need to take her here every day."

"good……"

He gestured for Wang Qin to get in the car, and Wang Qin, not daring to delay him any longer, pulled Lin Xi into the car.

Qin Ce drove them to the tutoring center.

This tutoring center is quite large, and it has several classes, but they are all junior high school tutoring classes. Wang Qin is very worried about whether Lin Xi will be able to learn it.

Qin Ce had contacted the person in charge here yesterday, and the person in charge wanted to take them on a tour. Since Qin Ce had no time, he simply asked him to handle the formalities.

The person in charge then asked another teacher to take the mother and daughter on a tour, while he and Qin Ce handled the formalities here.

"Mr. Qin, I already told you the general situation and costs on the phone yesterday. Would you like to know more about the rest?"

Qin Ce took out his phone. "No need, I'll pay the money first. You can tell them the details later."

"Alright then, the total cost for Chinese, math, and English will be 30,000 by the start of next school year."

Qin Ce nodded, scanned the QR code to pay, and left after paying.

Because he did have a meeting to attend, and it was the end of the year, so the company was extremely busy.

He was busy for the rest of the time, and he didn't get home until eight or nine o'clock almost every night. When he got home, he had to cook, and after dinner he would go to his study.

Qiao Xing felt a little guilty seeing how busy he was while she was doing nothing all day.

Once her foot felt a little better, she took the initiative to do the housework so that Qin Ce would have dinner when he came home in the evening.

Qiao Xing lay in bed, looking at the date on her phone. The annual meeting was the day after tomorrow.

She sighed and turned to look in the direction of the living room. Qin Ce was still busy in the study.

Suddenly, Wang Ye called her again.

Qiao Xing frowned, wondering why he was calling her so late, but she answered anyway.

As soon as the call connected, Wang Ye said, "Cousin, your colleague..."

He only said half of what he meant, and then he didn't know how to finish the sentence.

"What's wrong with her?"

Wang Ye stammered, "She asked me to meet her at her house... I... she wouldn't have any ulterior motives towards me, would she?"

Qiao Xing smirked, "Aren't you overthinking it?"

"No way, didn't I call her again today to ask for payment? She said she wanted me to come to her house to talk, damn it..."

Are you going?

Wang Ye hesitated, "Should I go or not?"

"How should I know? You can go if you want, or not if you don't."

"No, I just wanted to ask what kind of person your colleague is? If I go there, will she kick me in the back?"

His words became increasingly outrageous, and Qiao Xing could no longer bear to listen.

"How could that be?"

"Who knows, I've been working here for a few days and heard a lot of ghost stories."

Moreover, there are many people who owe money for reasons that are quite shocking and disturbing.

"No, I think she's a nice person. If you don't want to go, then don't go."

"Then I won't go. Let's talk about it tomorrow. I can't keep doing this job for even a day."

Not only that, her mother kept urging her to go on blind dates, sending her a bunch of WeChat messages.

Now that she's rich, she's not worried about finding a wife, and she's urging him to get married quickly, completely disregarding Wang Ye's wishes.

Qiao Xing gave a few perfunctory replies and then hung up the phone.

She threw her phone on the bed and got up.

Qiao Xing's feet are basically fine for walking now, but he can't walk for too long.

She arrived at the study door, peeked inside, and sure enough, Qin Ce was still working overtime.

Sensing her gaze, Qin Ce looked up towards the door. "What's wrong?"

Qiao Xing looked at him with some concern, "How many extra minutes are you going to add tonight?"

These past few days he's been sleeping at three or four in the morning and getting up very early in the morning, and Qiao Xing is worried that his body can't handle it.

Qin Ce clearly misunderstood her meaning, and his gaze shifted to her ankle. "Is your foot better?"

Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding, but instinctively nodded, "Okay."
