Chapter 406 No one gets up early without a reason
Qiao Xing looked somewhat dazed, then suddenly remembered Wang Qin from his memory, who seemed to look just like she did just now.
He is the direct rival of Qiao Hongzheng, has a strong personality, and is easily provoked.
In her limited memory, that house was full of endless arguments, with no one willing to give in.
Seeing Qiao Xing in a daze, Wang Qin cautiously called out twice more, "Xingxing, how long have you been here?"
Qiao Xing snapped out of her daze and said, "I arrived when you opened the door."
Wang Qin's expression changed, "Then just now..."
"I heard everything."
"Xingxing, I'm sorry. I don't know why he suddenly came looking for me. I was just angry when I said those things. Please don't take it to heart, okay?"
She was referring to the "bastard" comment. To be honest, Qiao Xing felt quite upset when she heard it.
But Wang Qin was just stating the facts; Qiao Hong did say that when the two of them argued back then.
Wang Qin, not to be outdone, angrily declared that she was a bastard.
Of course, Qiao Xing doesn't remember these words very clearly now. It was only when the two of them were arguing that Qiao Xing vaguely recalled them.
"It's all in the past."
Wang Qin also realized what was happening, "Don't stand at the door, come inside."
She held Qiao Xing's wrist as if afraid she would run away.
Qiao Xing didn't even think about running away, so he followed her into the house. Wang Qin closed the door, and the two of them didn't even glance at the gifts outside. The exquisite gift boxes were placed in the corner like a pile of trash.
"Honestly, I was planning to go out and look for a job," Wang Qin said as she poured her some water. "I was going to visit several factories today."
Qiao Xing, holding a cup of water, watched her busy figure and asked, "You still haven't found a job?"
Wang Qin sat down opposite her and shook her head. "No, I'm too old, no one wants me anymore."
Plus, she has a scar on her face, so people are even less likely to want her.
She traveled to many places during this time, but no one wanted her.
Wang Qin added, "Xiao Ye previously asked me to help out at his barbecue stand. I plan to go check it out today. If I still can't find a factory, I'll go work for him."
Qiao Xing nodded, and said thoughtfully, "Why did he suddenly come looking for me? Had you been in contact before?"
"No, how could I contact him? I would never contact him. I don't even have his phone number. You were there when he first called, you saw it."
Qiao Xing frowned deeply. "Then why would he suddenly come looking for me?"
"I don't know. He's the kind of person who won't do anything without a profit. He's selfish and self-serving. He's been ignoring things for so many years. It's not like he'll suddenly have a change of heart."
Qiao Xing thought of Qiao Ying. Just after meeting with Qiao Ying, Qiao Hong came looking for him.
Qiao Xing couldn't think of anyone else besides her.
Qiao Xing was a little angry. She had no evidence and couldn't directly question Qiao Ying, nor did she know what Qiao Ying's purpose was.
She could only suppress her emotions and say to Wang Qin, "Just ignore him, I'm going back now."
Wang Qin grabbed her arm. "Did you take time off work specifically to come here?"
"No, I resigned."
"You resigned?" Wang Qin looked surprised, but then she thought of Qin Ce and realized that resigning wasn't such a big deal.
"So, you're not doing anything right now?"
"No, I'm taking my driving test, and I can't even finish all the practice questions every day."
Wang Qin thought for a moment, then took her hand and said, "You don't have anything to do right now, right? Why don't you eat here before you leave? Otherwise, you'll be all alone when you go back."
Qiao Xing wanted to refuse, but Wang Qin's earnest eyes made him unable to say the words of refusal.
Seeing her hesitation, Wang Qin smiled and said, "Then it's decided. I'll go buy groceries. You wait here for me. If you're bored, you can watch TV."
She didn't give Qiao Xing a chance to refuse, got up, grabbed her phone and wallet, and went out.
Qiao Xing watched her retreating figure, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
While she went to buy groceries, Qiao Xing looked around the house. It smelled familiar everywhere, and the furnishings were basically unchanged.
Although his aunt and Wang Qin now live here, Qiao Xing always feels at ease whenever he returns.
It felt like coming home.
But now it seems like this house is his own, right?
Thinking of this, she felt more at ease.
As for Qin Ce's previous claim about demolishing the house, it's now almost certain that he was lying to her. The demolition was just an excuse; his real intention was to give the house to her.
Qiao Xing couldn't help but let out a happy smile.
She took out her phone and continued practicing her driving questions, hoping to get her driver's license as soon as possible and then go to work.
She's only been away from work for a few days, and she's already going crazy with boredom.
Meanwhile, after Qiao Hong came out, he also received a phone call from his company.
The company questioned him about why he took leave, where he went, and what he did, interrogating him like a criminal.
He had guessed before that the company was going to lay off employees and that he was on the list, but in order to avoid compensation, the company chose to use other methods to annoy him and force him to leave.
Like now, when questioned, he said he went to the hospital, so the company asked him to take back the certificate issued by the hospital.
If nothing unexpected happens, he'll get a certificate from the hospital later, and the administration will find fault with it again.
Besides, the administrative staff acted as if they had surveillance cameras on him. Whenever he took a short break during work hours, they would find an excuse to accuse him of slacking off.
If the attendance machine is broken, just say he was late and deduct his full attendance bonus.
There are many more disgusting things like this, too many to count on one hand. In short, they try every means to find fault with him and then use that as an excuse to fire him.
Now he goes to work like a spy every day, being extremely careful for fear of making a mistake, which is really exhausting.
If it weren't for the N+1 salary compensation, he would have resigned. But he couldn't bear to give up the compensation of over 100,000 yuan, so he could only stay at the company and wait it out.
Qiao Hong had just been mistreated by Wang Qin, and now the company was giving him trouble again. He almost lost his temper.
Finally, thinking of his compensation, he gritted his teeth and held back, forcing a smile as he said, "Yes, yes, I know. I'll be right back with the medicine and won't let it interfere with my work."
He said a couple more words to the other person before hanging up. Qiao Hong gripped his phone and angrily slammed his fist on the steering wheel a few times.
Before I could finish venting, my daughter called again.
He took a deep breath, composed himself, and answered the phone with a smile, "Yueyue, what's wrong?"
"Dad, did you buy that violin I mentioned before? I'm going to participate in a symphony competition soon, and everyone else has good instruments, but I'm still using this cheap one. If I lose because of it, my classmates will definitely scold me to death."
"Didn't I say I'd buy it for you as soon as I get paid? It'll be a few days from now, so can we wait a little longer?"
