Qing Ci had been the Duan family's daughter for over twenty years when she was suddenly told she wasn't their blood relative. Maliciously framed by the real heiress and expelled by her adop...
Chapter 813 Why Not Get Married Sooner
Qiao Qingci smiled and didn't respond. The boss went to look at Mo Yanchu, but the next second, he saw a perfect red lip print on the collar of Mo Yanchu's suit shirt.
"Hey, Mr. Mo, you..."
The boss was halfway through his speech when he realized something. He compared the two lipsticks on Qiao Qingci's red lips and found that the two lipsticks were exactly the same color.
Those who heard the boss speak looked at Mo Yanchu, then at Qiao Qingci, and fell silent.
The air in the private room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Qiao Qingci frowned, feeling a little regretful for listening to Mo Yanchu's lies. However, Mo Yanchu didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, he turned his head to look at the boss, his tone was more friendly than ever.
"Hmm? Mr. Zhao, what's wrong with me?"
Mr. Zhao's expression stiffened uncomfortably for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "Uh, nothing much. I just wanted to ask if Mr. Mo and Mr. Qiao wanted to go out for dinner later."
Mr. Zhao forced a change of subject.
Mo Yanchu gave a distant smile, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zhao, but Mr. Qiao and I have some family matters to attend to, so we'll have to meet next time."
Mr. Zhao: “…”
Who is this guy? Did Mo Yanchu just bully him?

After learning that Jiang Xiaoyu was working from home, Qiao Qingci was worried that she would be lonely at home, so she made a video call to Jiang Xiaoyu during her break at work.
The video was quickly connected, and Jiang Xiaoyu's rosy face appeared in the camera.
"Hello, Xiaoyu~"
Qiao Qingci smiled at her and asked, "How have you been doing at home these past two days? Do you find it boring to be alone?"
Jiang Xiaoyu shook her head and smiled gently, "I'm not bored. I can read a book after work. Your brother will come home early to accompany me. Oh, and Tiantian came to see me today too."
Jiang Xiaoyu moved the camera and Su Tiantian's face appeared.
Qiao Qingci nodded politely.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, Jiang Xiaoyu turned the camera on herself again, "Tomorrow is Friday, isn't it? Tiantian asked me what I should pay attention to at the banquet, so I had a good talk with her."
Qiao Qingci understood, and the two chatted for a while. The secretary had a new contract to sign, so Qiao Qingci hung up the phone.
"Master, this is the freshly squeezed juice that Auntie brought."
Seeing Jiang Xiaoyu put away her phone, Su Tiantian pointed to a cup of green liquid on the table.
Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and finished the cup, which made Su Tiantian look admiring.
"Master, this juice with added vegetables doesn't taste as good as fruit juice. How can you drink such a big glass?"
Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I have a lighter taste now, and this is just right for me. When you reach my stage, you will understand."
Su Tiantian seemed to understand, but she didn't quite understand. She looked at Jiang Xiaoyu. Jiang Xiaoyu was very delicate, and she looked no different now that she was pregnant. She couldn't help but wonder how long Jiang Xiaoyu had been pregnant.
Su Tiantian asked whatever she wanted to ask. Jiang Xiaoyu had never mentioned her pregnancy at the company. Now that she was at home, she was relaxed and did not hide it from Su Tiantian.
"It's been almost five months."
"I can't tell." Su Tiantian seemed to be thinking about something.
"Master, why didn't you marry Mr. Qiao when you found out you were pregnant? I didn't mean any harm. I just thought it would look better in a wedding dress then. You didn't realize you weren't showing your pregnancy, did you?"
Su Tiantian's words brought Jiang Xiaoyu's thoughts back to when she first found out she was pregnant. A variety of emotions appeared in her eyes, and she said in a complicated way: "He and I have been through a lot before, and the arrival of the baby was also unexpected. When we found out, we were already engaged and preparing for the wedding."
"So that's how it is."
Seeing that Jiang Xiaoyu was in a very different mood, Su Tiantian stopped asking and just thought about what Jiang Xiaoyu said in her heart.
What would a marriage between wealthy families entail? Why did Master say the child was an accident? Mr. Qiao was so kind to Master, could it be that Master was using this child to bind Mr. Qiao?
Jiang Xiaoyu became sleepy after returning home, and Su Tiantian left without staying long.
Sitting in the taxi, she took out her cell phone and couldn't help searching for entries about "Qiao Changye".
The public information of Qiao Changye, the current president of Qiao Group, appeared on Su Tiantian's mobile phone page, including his outstanding resume, various social relationships, commendable achievements and contributions, as well as some photos of his participation in activities.
Su Tiantian had never had contact with people like Qiao Changye before. This entry was like a big hand that opened the curtain of another world, leading Su Tiantian into a world she had never imagined.
Su Tiantian slid her hand across the screen, enlarging the photos from time to time. It was not until the taxi arrived that she realized how much time she had wasted on this webpage.
She quickly exited the car, paid the money, and walked towards her rental house.
