Chapter 491 I Heard a Gossip
At that time, Gao Jin knew that Qiao Xing was afraid that those thug girls would beat her up, which was why she stayed by his side all the time.
At first, she was quite impatient, but she got used to it after having a little follower. Qiao Xing was also very attentive, always volunteering to run errands for her, such as buying water and snacks.
So when that girl caused trouble for Qiao Xing again, Gao Jin would help her.
The most memorable time for her was when that woman said Qiao Xing was a lackey who had found his master.
Gao Jin threw the mineral water bottle in her hand, hitting the woman on the forehead. The woman instantly exploded and rushed over to fight with her.
That was the worst fight they'd ever had. The two of them were holding chairs and staring at each other. Gao Jin smashed the other man's head, causing him to end up in the hospital. She was almost forced to quit the fight herself.
The girl was still not satisfied and wanted to find someone to beat her up. Gao Jin was not afraid of trouble at that time. After the girl said that, she carried a watermelon knife in her schoolbag to school every day.
The woman actually brought a group of people to ambush her. She pulled out a watermelon knife from her bag, which scared the group away, and they all knew she was not someone to mess with.
Qiao Xing was with her at the time, and the scene scared her to tears. Afterwards, Qiao Xing apologized to her while crying, feeling that it was all because of her that Gao Jin had gotten into trouble.
Gao Jin even threatened her, saying that if she cried again, she wouldn't play with her anymore.
Once memories flood your mind, even the smallest details come rushing back.
If she hadn't spoken up, Gao Jin herself wouldn't have known that she and Qiao Xing shared such a deep memory.
These were everyday occurrences for her, but for Qiao Xing, who was still in high school at the time, they were probably unforgettable.
Yang Han rested her head on her hand, listening quietly without interrupting her.
She didn't know how long they talked, but it was already dark outside. By the end, Gao Jin even doubted whether Yang Han had been listening attentively.
Once the car was quiet, Yang Han spoke, "No wonder, she should be grateful to you."
"Actually, I've long forgotten about these things."
“You think it’s nothing, but with her timid nature, it must be unforgettable for her. If it weren’t for you, she might have dropped out of school. Whether you helped her intentionally or unintentionally for any reason, to her, you are her benefactor.”
"Now she might be screwing screws in a factory, or she might have married someone else..." He didn't finish his sentence, because saying more would be like using Gao Jin as a negative example, criticizing her.
“That’s all in the past.” Gao Jin sighed, feeling a mix of emotions as she thought about Qiao Xing’s current status.
Yang Han smiled and said, "You two just reunited. This is a fresh start, not the past. Good people will be rewarded."
"Thank you for your kind words."
"Is this the school?" Yang Han had stopped the car at some point.
Gao Jin belatedly came to her senses and saw that it was already seven o'clock. She hurriedly nodded, "Yes, this is the place. Thank you, Mr. Yang. I'll go down now."
Go ahead, but be careful.
Gao Jin anxiously pushed open the car door and got out, only to find that the school was closed.
She took out her phone and called her mother-in-law. As soon as the call connected, she heard the noise of a mahjong machine on the other end.
"Mom, have you taken Chenchen back home?"
"Oh dear, I forgot. Oh, it's all their fault. They insisted on pulling me away so I could hit them and leave. What's wrong? Didn't you see Chenchen?"
"Her school is closed!" Gao Jin was already anxious, and her tone became unfriendly. "Do you really have to play mahjong?"
"What are you yelling about! Is she your daughter or mine? You didn't go pick her up yourself, and now you're blaming me? Do I owe you something?"
Yang Han was about to leave, but upon hearing her intense tone, he released the steering wheel.
The two argued for a bit, and the other person seemed to be in the wrong and backed down, saying, "Hey, why don't you call her teacher and ask? She might be at the teacher's house."
Gao Jin wiped away her tears, hung up the phone and called the teacher again. Fortunately, her daughter was still at the teacher's house, and unsurprisingly, she was scolded by the teacher.
"I'm so sorry to trouble you, teacher. I'll come pick her up now."
Gao Jin hung up the phone and was about to hail a taxi when she looked up and saw Yang Han standing in front of her. "President Yang, why haven't you left yet?"
You seem very anxious. Is the child alright?
"Yes, at the teacher's house."
Before Yang Han could speak, she hurriedly added, "I'll just take a taxi to find her. Thank you so much, Mr. Yang, for bringing me here today."
Yang Han hesitated for a moment, then decided not to insist. The child was fine, and they had just been going that way. If he were to rush to help now, it would be too eager and overstep his bounds.
"Alright then, but be careful, it's late at night."
"Thank you, Mr. Yang."
"No need, I'm leaving now."
Yang Han got back into the car and drove away.
On his way back, he called Qin Ce, changing his attitude from Gao Jin to a playful one, "Old Qin, I just heard some gossip."
"Not interested."
Qin Ce was about to hang up when he heard it was gossip, but Yang Han spoke up first, "It's Qiao Xing's."
After pausing for a moment while hanging up, Qin Ce turned on the speakerphone, tossed the phone onto the passenger seat, and continued driving.
Seeing that he hadn't hung up, Yang Han started babbling on and on, "It was during the contract signing this afternoon..."
...
Qiao Xing was looking at these things at home, debating whether or not to move them all over.
Moving is the most troublesome thing; she hates moving.
The doctor had nowhere to stay tonight, so Qiao Xing thought it best to let the doctor and the old man stay there first, and she and Qin Ce could move in later.
She was discussing it with the old man when Qin Ce returned.
"Oh, you're back just in time. I was just discussing with Grandpa about having him and Dr. Chen move over first. What do you think?"
"I'm fine with either, it's up to Grandpa."
The old man waved his hand, "I'm fine wherever I am, do whatever is convenient for you."
Qiao Xing said, "Let's do it this way now. You and Dr. Chen can move there tomorrow. I think it's not far anyway, so it doesn't matter whether we move or not."
"Either is fine, let's eat first."
After washing his hands, Qin Ce came out and saw the dishes on the table. He turned to Qiao Xing and asked, "Did you make this?"
Qiao Xing nodded, "I'm just sitting at home with nothing to do, I can't just do nothing."
Qin Ce didn't say anything.
After dinner, Qin Ce took a shower and returned to the bedroom, where Qiao Xing watched the relationship advice livestream again.
Although Qiao Xing paddled away as fast as he could, he still managed to see him.
Qin Ce found her action somewhat amusing, "Why are you acting like a thief?"
Qiao Xing said awkwardly, "But you didn't want me to see it."
"I'm not forbidding you from watching, but you can watch, but don't project it onto yourself." After saying that, he added, "Change to a different female anchor."
Qiao Xing's lips twitched, and she left the live stream, saying, "I'm not watching anymore."
Qin Ce sat down next to her and glanced at the time; it was still early, only nine o'clock.
He stared at Qiao Xing for a while, his gaze making Qiao Xing feel a chill run down her spine. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
