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 527 was truly painstaking.
Upon hearing this, Meimei's eyes lit up, and she grabbed Qiao Hong's arm. "Uncle, you know what? There was a robbery around here a few days ago. It was a woman, a pretty one. Not only did she get robbed, but she was also..."
"If it's that scary, then you need to be even more careful. Why don't you move away sooner rather than later? It is indeed a bit far from here."
He spent half a day driving, and he doesn't want to spend that much time looking for her again.
Meimei blinked and said with a wronged expression, "But it's cheap here, and it's close to my factory. If I move, what will I do for work?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Hong's sense of superiority instantly rose. He looked Mei Mei up and down and said, "Look at how pretty you are, why are you working in a factory? Don't work there anymore. I'll give you your monthly salary. Just move out now."
Meimei's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed, but she didn't show it on her face.
She said, "No, my mom says men are unreliable. I want to go to work and earn money with my own hands."
Qiao Hong wasn't some young man fresh out of school, so he couldn't possibly miss the difference between what Mei Mei said and what wasn't. He smiled and said, "Then it won't be convenient for me to see you in the future."
Seeing that he no longer insisted on her moving out, Meimei became anxious. She changed the subject and said, "Uncle, aren't you the manager of your company? How about I work for your company?"
Qiao Hong hesitated.
"Please let me go. I'll be your assistant and secretary, okay? I'll serve you tea and water and take care of you every day, so we can see each other every day."
Qiao Hong's mind wandered. He had only known this beautiful woman for a few days, and the novelty was still there. He also liked her youthful body and vitality.
"Then let me think about it. I need to make some arrangements for this."
Meimei was overjoyed and hugged his neck, giving him a big kiss. "I knew Uncle was the best to me. I'm going upstairs now. Be careful on your way back, Uncle."
"Alright, go ahead."
Meimei opened the car door, got out, and skipped upstairs.
This is the dormitory building of their factory. Six people live in one room, and they have bunk beds.
When her roommates saw her return, they all gathered around to gossip.
"Xiaomei, who was that person who brought you back?"
"My boyfriend." Meimei tidied her hair in front of the mirror, her smugness undisguised.
"Sure, your boyfriend drives a BMW. What does he do? How old is he? Is he handsome?"
Mei Mei paused, feeling a bit nauseous at the thought of Qiao Hong's old face, but she still smiled and said, "He's probably only thirty years old, and he's not bad looking."
Wow, that's amazing! Do you have any photos to show us?
"Go away, there are no photos. He doesn't like having his picture taken. I'll bring him to meet you when I have the chance."
"OK."
Meimei was secretly pleased with herself. She didn't come from a good background; she was born in a backward rural area and started working after graduating from junior high school, changing jobs in various factories.
She changes factories three or four times a year, but she thinks she is good-looking and will definitely marry a rich man in the future. No matter what the other person looks like, as long as he is rich, she can bring herself to eat him even if he is disgusting.
But in recent years, reality has taught her a harsh lesson. She simply can't find rich, handsome, and successful men. Even if she does meet one, the women around him are far more outstanding than her.
So she had to lower her expectations. Money was all she needed to make her life better. She didn't care about rich kids or older men.
So she kept using the app, adding people nearby, and using her extensive experience to choose suitable candidates.
Therefore, she had chosen Qiao Hong beforehand; he drove a BMW and was a manager.
This kind of status is something she could never achieve in her entire life, so she must hold onto Qiao Hong now, even if he is old enough to be her father.
Qiao Hong glanced at the dormitory room with its lights on upstairs, his ego swelling even more. He had been a subservient servant for too long, and now that he finally had power, he wanted to use it to its fullest extent.
The way Meimei pleaded with him, the satisfaction of being needed, and the sense of superiority from being able to exercise privileges filled his heart.
He was considering this beautiful suggestion.
The boss knew he had a good relationship with the Qin family and that he was S&C's father-in-law, so he treated him like a god and arranged for someone to be placed in the company.
Who would have thought things would turn out this way?
If he had known earlier that Qiao Xing would marry so well, he should have cultivated a good relationship with her beforehand; perhaps things would have gone even further for him now.
Thinking of this, Qiao Hong couldn't help but stomp his feet and lower his head.
He didn't even notice that a taxi was following him.
Cao Yun did not go back with him, but got out of the car and walked towards the dormitory.
However, there were too many dormitories here, and after searching around, she couldn't find the woman. She had no choice but to give up and go back first. Anyway, now that she knew the woman's address, she could find her anytime she wanted.
Cao Yun returned home half an hour later than Qiao Hong. Qiao Hong was somewhat unhappy to see that the half-cooked dishes in the kitchen were nowhere to be found.
Upon seeing Cao Yun return, he questioned, "Where have you been?"
Cao Yun suppressed his anger and smiled, saying, "We're out of soy sauce. I'll go downstairs and buy a bottle. You're a little late today."
Qiao Hong's face stiffened for a moment, then he said evasively, "You know I had to work overtime at the company. I just got promoted and I have a lot of things to do."
Cao Yun nodded. "So, are you still going to eat or not?"
"I'm not eating anymore, you can eat by yourself. I already ate at the company, I'm going to take a shower first."
"Okay, go take a shower and get some rest. If you have to work overtime or not come home for dinner next time, just let me know in advance, and I won't wait for you."
Cao Yun sounded a little aggrieved. It was already eleven o'clock, and she wanted to tell Qiao Hong that she had been waiting for him and hadn't eaten yet.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Hong felt a moment of guilt, but it was only for a moment. When he thought of the years he had been oppressed and the words she had said to him, that guilt vanished.
She deserved it.
Qiao Hong said nothing more. He turned around, went to his room to get his clothes, and then went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After he went inside, Cao Yun immediately went to the sofa, picked up his coat, and touched his phone.
I took it out and entered the password to unlock it. Luckily, the man hadn't changed his password.
She scrolled through her phone and found no messages from that woman in her chat history, so he must have deleted them.
She thought for a moment, then opened her contacts, checked them, found the call history, wrote down most of his calls from four hours ago, and then copied them into WeChat to search for the user.
They actually found a woman's profile picture.
Her profile picture was of a beautiful woman from the internet, and Qiao Hong had her saved as 'Ms. Wang from Furui Electronics' in his contacts.
They really went to great lengths.
She clicked into the other person's Moments and saw the woman she had seen before.
