Chapter 83 Why is there another woman in the bedroom?
When Qiao Xing got back, she told her uncle about the house transfer. Her uncle naturally had no objections, but the property certificate was in her aunt's hands, so she had to wait for her aunt to come back and tell her.
She went to a banquet today and probably won't be back until tomorrow.
Lily also came out of the house. She had changed into fashionable clothes, put on exquisite makeup, and was carrying her bag, ready to go out.
When Lily saw Qiao Xing and Qin Ce return, she was stunned, especially when she met Qin Ce's gaze, her eyes darted away.
Although she was afraid that Qin Ce would expose her, she didn't want to give up, so she still decided to marry Wang Ye.
Regardless, Wang Ye is Qiao Xing's cousin, and the two have a good relationship. They are all relatives, so Qiao Xing wouldn't just abandon Wang Ye.
Even if they can't become extremely wealthy, with a tycoon like Qin Ce around, they can certainly live a life free from worries about food and clothing.
Especially once Qin Ce's identity is revealed, what reason will Qiao Xing have not to help Wang Ye?
Thinking of this, Lily suddenly grabbed her bag and came to Qiao Xing's side. "Qiao Xing, when are you free?"
"Is there something you need?" Qiao Xing asked.
Lily said, "Oh, I just wanted you to come with us to look at hotels and wedding dresses, so that we could have more people to choose from."
"I see..." Qiao Xing thought for a moment, "When do you want to go? Have you set a wedding date yet?"
"It's booked? It's for the 15th of next month. There's still a month and a half left, it should be enough time, right?" Lily said with a smile. She leaned closer to Qiao Xing, and the perfume she was wearing almost made him faint.
"Right...this month is almost over," Qiao Xing murmured, knowing that payday was just around the corner.
"Are you free tomorrow? How about tomorrow?" Lily said.
Qiao Xing shook his head. "Tomorrow might not be possible. I need to go and complete the property transfer."
"Transfer of ownership?" Lily suddenly remembered something. She had no interest in this dilapidated house. "Oh, then let's do it the day after tomorrow."
Lily didn't understand why Qiao Xing was so fixated on this dilapidated house; she wouldn't even look at it if it were given to her for free.
Lily wouldn't have stayed here if it weren't for wanting to share a house with Qin Ce. This time, she's just gotten herself into a mess.
Then she can't skimp on herself at her wedding; she has to have a grand and extravagant affair.
"The day after tomorrow is the weekend, so let's go the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'm off then." Lily picked up her bag, went over to change her shoes, and got ready to go clubbing again.
Qiao Xing couldn't help but ask her, "Lily, you're getting married soon, why are you going out so late?"
Lily glanced at her. "Just because you're getting married doesn't mean you can't go out anymore. What kind of old-fashioned thinking is that? When Wang Ye comes back, tell him I'll be back later."
After Lily finished speaking, she opened the door, walked out in her high heels, and then closed the door again.
Qiao Xing sighed and looked back at the bedroom. Every time Qin Ce came back, he either locked himself in his bedroom or in his grandfather's room. She didn't know how he could be so busy all day.
Wang Ye returned around 10 p.m. He listlessly kicked off his shoes, hunched over, walked to the sofa, and collapsed onto it.
Qiao Xing came over with a water glass, looking at him curiously, "Cousin, what have you been doing?"
Wang Ye opened his eyes, staring at Qiao Xing with a worried expression, "Cousin, getting married is too tiring!"
“Um…” Qiao Xing touched her ear. She couldn’t understand Wang Ye’s exhaustion, after all, her marriage was quite simple.
Seeing Wang Ye so exhausted, she suddenly felt quite glad she made that decision back then—getting the marriage certificate was all it took.
"I'm so tired, I'm never getting married again in this life..." Wang Ye mumbled incoherently, then suddenly remembered something and sat up abruptly. "Where's Lily?"
"Oh, she went out and said she'd be back later."
Wang Ye frowned, already guessing what he could be doing out so late—he must be drinking.
He immediately stood up. "I'm going to find her."
Qiao Xing grabbed him, "Cousin, you've had a long day, you should rest first. You're getting married soon, don't cause any trouble."
Wang Ye's face showed some anger, but he suppressed it. He said irritably, "This woman doesn't care about anything, she's always asking for this and that. I'm out there running around every day, preparing all those things, I'm exhausted like a dog, and she still goes out drinking. I really..."
It's said that many conflicts arise during marriage, and it seems to be true.
From the previous house purchase to Lily's current demands, Wang Ye has tried his best to meet her requirements, but she remains indifferent and acts the same as before.
Even Wang Ye's patience eventually wore thin.
Qiao Xing didn't know how to advise him, after all, it was someone else's business.
The worst thing you can do is meddle in other people's relationships. If they do well in the future, they'll all say you were nosy; if they don't, they'll blame you for the problems.
"Alright, cousin, why don't you wait for her to come back before you talk to her? There's no point in you going like this."
Wang Ye thought about it and agreed that Qiao Xing was right; going now would definitely lead to an argument with Lily.
Now that we've come this far, Wang Ye has invested so much, and the more he invests, the less he dares to give up.
Qiao Xing could tell that Wang Ye still really wanted to marry Lily.
After a while, Wang Ye stood up again. "Forget it, I'll go find her. It's so late, it's not safe for her in those places."
"and you……"
Wang Ye said, "Don't worry, I won't argue with her. I'll come back as soon as I find her."
After saying that, Wang Ye, holding his anger in his heart, went out the door again.
Qiao Xing looked at the gate and couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, matters of the heart are troublesome.
After seeing her relationship with Lin Yu and now with Wang Ye and Lili, she has completely given up hope for love.
Thinking about it, living together with Qin Ce like this isn't so bad.
When Qiao Xing returned to the room, Qin Ce was wearing headphones and having a video conference on his computer.
Qiao Xing glanced over unintentionally and saw that several of them were foreigners, but Qin Ce was wearing headphones, so Qiao Xing couldn't hear what they were saying.
Qin Ce sat there quietly, arms crossed, listening to them talk.
Qiao Xing glanced at it and quickly moved to the side to avoid appearing in the camera's view.
But it still appeared on screen just now.
The people in the video stared wide-eyed, their faces pressed against the screen, looking so gossipy that they seemed to want to jump out of the computer screen to find out what was going on.
It's one thing for the boss to live in such a simple house, but why is there a woman in the bedroom?
Qin Ce frowned and reminded them, "Are you still going to start now?"
After he finished speaking, the group immediately sat back down and continued their meeting.
Qiao Xing glanced back at him. He hadn't just spoken in English, so she couldn't understand it. It sounded like French.
She suddenly realized that Qin Ce's transfer to the secretariat might not necessarily be due to unspoken rules; he was genuinely talented.
