"What?"
"Nothing, nothing..."
Yao Mo raised his hand to cover his mouth, worried that his expression was too silly.
He asked, "Ahem, can you drink?"
"meeting."
"Great!" Yao Mo took an empty wine glass and filled it up for him.
He thought this guy wouldn't drink with him, after all, he looked kind of obedient.
It feels like the poor students are dragging down the good students...
Of course, the poor student refers to himself.
He raised his arm to clink glasses with Caius, who patted his shoulder like a brother, "I've heard everything about you."
"Brother, this is all fate."
He slapped his thigh and said, "In this vast sea of people, you just happened to meet them. It must be fate!"
Caius just smiled and said nothing.
He also felt it was fate.
But it was only a matter of time. Even if he hadn't met Li Yao by accident, this matter wouldn't be hidden for long and would be discovered eventually.
Of course, this is the best way now.
Yao Mo was a man who spoke his mind, and he had no dislike for Caius. He even joked with him, "Tsk, I said I wanted to be the child's godfather, but now that the biological father is here, I can't be the one either."
I don’t deserve it.
Caius glanced at Li Qiao secretly and found that she didn't react, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Yao Mo continued to ask: "I heard that you are a painter?"
He nodded.
Yao Mo asked again: "How many people are there in your family? Are your parents still alive?"
"I only have one older sister, and she's married. Now, I'm the only one left in my family."
Yao Mo nodded secretly. He was quite polite and not hurried or slow. He seemed okay.
"Do you have an ex-girlfriend?"
He was really presumptuous.
He lowered his head and took a sip of wine, pretending to be very cool, but in fact he was hiding his curious and gossipy gaze.
"No."
"Ah? Really? You're so old and you've never been in a relationship. Is there something wrong with your health?"
Caius: “…”
Why do you say that?
There was confusion in his eyes.
Yao Mo laughed, "I was just kidding, don't take it seriously. Our Li Qiao has never found a partner either! It's all the same."
As he said this, he winked at Li Qiao.
It's okay, buddy has tested it for you, this guy is a pure and good boy.
Li Qiao felt uncomfortable when she saw his gaze and rolled her eyes at him.
ill.
There is really nothing to do.
Still too idle.
He should be given more work, that's all.
The hairs on Yao Mo's arms suddenly stood up.
There is murderous intent!
He looked aside warily, like a frightened cat.
Caius watched his series of actions and labeled him as "not very smart" in his mind.
Silly.
Not that sinister kind of person.
They are all very straightforward and speak their mind directly.
This friend is pretty good.
Caius had a good impression of him.
One could sense that Yao Mo was helping Li Qiao test him. Although he seemed a little unreliable, he was genuinely thinking about Li Qiao.
Thinking of this, the smile on his lips deepened and became more genuine.
Duan Mubai, who was standing aside, seemed to be hesitant to speak. He wanted to say something but didn't seem to know how to say it.
After thinking about it, he gave in and said nothing.
Just a little absent-minded.
I accidentally bumped into Xu Ling next to me and quickly apologized: "Sorry."
"It's okay." Xu Ling wasn't very familiar with him, so he stood up and sat next to Li Qiao, chatting with her reluctantly. As they chatted, he began to relax and his body was no longer tense.
"Is he your boyfriend now?"
"What do you think?"
Li Qiao faced her with a smile.
Xu Ling was silent for a moment and shook his head. "I don't think so. You don't like him."
She had known Li Qiao for many years and had even made a joke of herself once before, thinking that Li Qiao liked girls.
She had actually heard the rumor at that time.
Because Li Qiao treated her very well at that time, those annoying boys always gossiped about her, saying that Li Qiao helped her because he liked girls.
They said this on purpose and are spreading rumors.
At first, she was not familiar with Li Qiao, so she asked him foolishly, and then made Li Qiao laugh so hard that he bent over, and he treated her better after that.
She remembered that at that time, Li Qiao said that there was nothing wrong with her orientation and asked her not to think too much about it.
Later, she had several relationships, but Li Qiao was still single. Every day he went between the laboratory, library, restaurant, and home, burying himself in the ocean of knowledge.
She thought Li Qiao would pursue a Ph.D., but she didn't. After graduating with a master's degree, she joined her family's company. The most shocking thing was that she skipped marriage and had a child with the man.
At such a young age, he made such a big decision, which is enough to affect his whole life.
So courageous.
She envied the confidence to do what she said because she didn't have it.
"You still understand me."
Li Qiao smiled softly, "As for men, maybe one day I'll find what I want, but I don't have any thoughts right now."
"I know what you're all thinking."
"But we are not livestock that can be paired off casually."
"He's the child's father, that's all, don't think too much about it."
"Sometimes, people always like that kind of perfection, but it's actually unnecessary."
She was not stupid, so how could she not know the subtle looks from everyone? However, she did not say much, as they would not appear in front of her anyway.
She was not like Li Yao and Little Li Yao, who felt very close to Caius's face when looking at it, but in Li Qiao's eyes, it was just like that.
I don’t think Caius and the child look very similar. They look a bit alike, but in fact they are not alike in any way. Li Qiao even thinks her child looks more like her.
She didn't expect Caius to come here, but since he came, she calmed down after being surprised.
If they don't leave and have no bad intentions, they are just pure "baby-raising partners" and the children will get more love, which is very good.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. How is your Minmin? Is she okay?"
Talking about her daughter, Xu Ling was visibly happy. "I also want to thank the aunt you found for me. Minmin likes her very much, and she has helped me a lot."
"The Huo family's property is all under Minmin's name, so their future life won't be bad."
Li Qiao was also very happy for her. "When you have time, bring your children to visit my house. You don't know, my house is always full of children every day. It's so lively."
"...Okay." Xu Ling felt complicated. "You've really changed a lot."
She remembered that Li Qiao didn’t like being in a crowd before.
"People always change."
"Yeah, I've changed too."
“…”
They were chatting here and didn't notice the three men for a while.
They are having a drinking contest.
Duan Mubai had a lot of things in his heart that he couldn't express, so he drank to drown his sorrows, but it only made him feel even sadder.
Because I can’t win!
There are double images in front of my eyes.
You can really drink!
