Chapter 466 Backup
His earnest attempt to argue was hilarious, and Qiao Xing couldn't help but laugh.
She then said, "If there isn't one, then there isn't one. Anyway, I've already taken a picture, and I have it on my phone."
Qin Ce frowned and looked at her with a strange expression.
After a while, he finally asked, "What are your requirements?"
"What requirements?"
"How can you delete those photos? Name your terms."
He stared straight at Qiao Xing with a serious look, as if he were negotiating, which made Qiao Xing a little scared. It was clear that he really wanted to destroy those photos.
Qiao Xing suddenly regretted telling him. If only she had kept it secretly, she would be in an awkward position now.
Just as the two were about to reach a stalemate, Qiao Xing had a sudden thought, and she immediately clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.
Qin Ce stood there unmoved, seemingly observing whether she was truly in pain or faking it.
Seeing that he didn't react, Qiao Xing slowly squatted down, revealing a pained expression, "My stomach hurts, it hurts so much."
After a while, Qin Ce still couldn't stand, so he stepped forward, bent down, and helped her up. "What's wrong?"
Qiao Xing looked up at him and said, "I don't know either. It just suddenly started hurting. You must have made me angry."
Qin Ce pursed his lips, unsure whether to believe her.
"I'll take you to the hospital to get checked out."
"No need, no need, I'll be fine after resting for a while." Qiao Xing refused him, grabbed his arm, and stood up with difficulty. "I'll go sit down for a bit."
A hint of suspicion flashed in Qin Ce's eyes, but he still helped her to sit down on a chair.
Qiao Xing sat down in the chair with a stiff upper lip, trying to figure out how to steer the conversation away from the topic.
"I feel a little thirsty."
"Go back and drink."
Qiao Xing waved her hands repeatedly, "No need, let me rest for a while before going back. By the way, aren't you busy today?"
"not busy."
Qiao Xing glanced at him out of the corner of her eye and sensed that he was still somewhat covetous. How could such a serious person care so much about those photos?
Actually, if we don't tell anyone, no one would recognize him in the photo.
After sitting for about ten minutes, Qin Ce asked, "Are you feeling better?"
Qiao Xing nodded, "I feel better, but I'm still a little uncomfortable."
Fearing he would take her to the hospital again, Qiao Xing quickly added, "I just need to rest for two more minutes. Why don't we go back?"
Qin Ce nodded. "Okay."
He helped Qiao Xing up. "Can you walk?"
"I can walk, I can walk."
Qiao Xing noticed the worry in his eyes and felt a little guilty, but she really didn't want to delete the photos; they were such precious things.
Once it's destroyed, it can never be found again in this lifetime.
She sighed, got up, and followed him back to the villa.
He didn't bring it up yet, but Qiao Xing knew that he was definitely up to something again.
So, while Qiao Xing was distracted and asked him to pour her some water, she changed her phone password and even disabled fingerprint unlock, so that he couldn't secretly take her phone to delete the photos.
You don't have to worry about him secretly using your fingerprint to unlock your phone while you're asleep.
Qiao Xing secretly praised himself for his cleverness. After spending a lot of time with him, Qiao Xing sometimes felt like he could guess what he was going to do.
A short while later, Qin Ce brought over the water, and Qiao Xing quickly hid her phone under her pillow.
"Here, be careful, it's hot."
Qiao Xing took the water glass. "Thank you."
"If you want to thank me, just delete the photos."
Qiao Xing twitched the corners of her mouth, not wanting to talk to him anymore, and lowered her head to drink water.
Qin Ce didn't force her. Since they were together, he would have plenty of opportunities to delete the photos.
"Then you rest in the room first, I'll go out to make a phone call."
"Okay."
Qin Ce glanced at her a couple more times to make sure she was alright before getting up and leaving.
His phone was on silent today, but this time he did it on his own initiative, not wanting to deal with company matters.
But Qiao Xing couldn't go out right now, so he had to turn his phone on again.
After he left, Qiao Xing secretly took out her phone again, opened the photo album, and looked through the photos she had taken.
Upon seeing the baby in the photo, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.
For safety's sake, she also backed up the photos and uploaded them to her cloud drive, so that even if he secretly deleted the photos from her phone, she would still have a backup.
In short, he can forget about destroying this evidence.
Qiao Xing grinned, finished a series of actions, put her phone away, got up and went out to find Qin Ce.
It seems this person went out; you can see him in the courtyard from upstairs.
Qiao Xing hesitated for a moment, and was about to go back into the house when a servant called out to her from behind.
"Miss Qiao."
Qiao Xing paused, turned around, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Miss Qiao, Madam requests your presence downstairs."
The maid the lady was referring to was Wang Yu. Qiao Xing didn't know why she was being summoned, but she had no way to refuse.
After a moment of silence, Qiao Xing nodded, "Okay."
Wang Yu was downstairs. When Qiao Xing went down, he saw that besides Wang Yu, there were several other women there.
Anyway, Qiao Xing doesn't know him.
She followed the maid over, approached Wang Yu, and greeted her, "Auntie, is there anything I can help you with?"
Wang Yu waved to her, "Come, sit down."
There were four or five wealthy women sitting there, and several pairs of eyes were staring at her. Qiao Xing felt like she was being judged and was very uncomfortable.
She maintained her smile and sat down next to Wang Yu.
Wang Yu said to her, "Xingxing, let me introduce you. These are all Xiao Ce's aunts. You should call them aunts too. This is the eldest aunt, that is the third aunt, and this is also the third aunt."
Qiao Xing's gaze followed Wang Yu's hand as she introduced each person, and Qiao Xing would call out to them.
Anyway, she couldn't remember any of the aunts, and they weren't particularly close. Grandpa Qin had several brothers and sisters, and these aunts were from Qin Liang's generation, so there were many more.
That would be amazing if someone could remember all their relatives on their first meeting.
After Wang Yu finished her introduction, Qiao Xing breathed a sigh of relief.
Several women were still scrutinizing her, as if trying to see through her.
Women don't have much to talk about; they just chat about everyday family matters and gossip about relatives.
And Qiao Xing, sitting here, has become the subject of their gossip.
Someone asked, "What does Xiao Qiao do?"
Qiao Xing replied, "I'm a software developer."
"Oh, so you work at Xiaoce Company?"
"No, I work with a few friends, I don't work for Qin Ce's company."
"Then why don't you go work at Xiao Ce's company? If you work there, he might be able to look after you a bit."
Qiao Xing thought that working at his company was worse than not working at home, but of course she couldn't say that in front of them.
