Li Qiao's eyes were filled with doubt.
Putting her mind on hold, she stared intently at the man in front of her.
Caius felt guilty when he was stared at. He coughed lightly, and the heroic spirit that had just surged in his heart suddenly disappeared.
"Qiao Qiao, why are you going? Tell us, otherwise we can only sit here and worry about you. You can't be so selfish."
It was the first time he spoke so fluently, and he was talking to Li Qiao.
"Actually, it's nothing." Li Qiao was in no hurry to leave. She walked past him and sat on the sofa.
Little Li Yao was still eating chestnuts. When he saw his mother coming, he picked up the plate and shared it with her.
Li Qiao ate one symbolically, then motioned Caius to come and sit over.
Caius sat down, but felt very uncomfortable.
"I...I'm worried about you too."
"And, and..."
"Is there something you can't tell me...us?"
Caius spoke with reason and logic, his hands on his knees, his body straight, and his voice was powerful.
"You're right."
Li Qiao nodded and said, "You will worry about me." After listening to her, she felt that it made sense.
"So, I'll tell you what happened."
She didn't want to say it.
"Actually, it's about Li Ci."
As soon as she said this, the little guy beside her stopped eating chestnuts and just looked at her with his big eyes.
At this moment, Li Yao is studying upstairs.
Li Qiao gave him a brand new book, the English version, which was a little difficult for him now, so he had been studying it for the past two days.
She also didn't want to talk about Li Ci in front of the children.
But she promised Li's mother that she would at least ensure that Li Ci could live safely.
Knowing that it was Li Ci's business, Caius suddenly became lazy, leaning on the sofa as if he had no bones, "Hey Qiao Qiao, why didn't you say so earlier..."
He thought he was in such a hurry to do something.
"You are quite tough."
Li Qiao knew who he was and looked at him teasingly, "Why, you don't want to pretend to be a pretty boy anymore?"
Li Qiao doesn't like any pretty boy at all. That's all just a rumor. It's ruining her reputation.
It's obvious that Caius couldn't be some gigolo. The kind of life he led in the first half of his life had nothing to do with being a gigolo.
Hearing her say this, Caius shook his head, "I'm just a gigolo."
"The pretty boy is white, looks childish, looks young, and is a pauper. I have all these characteristics." Then why do you say he is not?
Li Qiao looked at him with a smile, "First of all, a gigolo wouldn't talk to a financier like that. Secondly, a gigolo is after money, what are you after?"
Caius: “…”
Yeah, what does he want?
This question really stumped him.
He was thinking, but Li Qiao didn't have time to continue joking with him, as she had important things to do.
"Okay, now you can look after the child, wait, I'll be back soon."
She was very anxious at first, but after talking to Caius, she felt that there was no need to be so panic.
It’s okay to be late, Li Ci won’t die.
Thinking of this, she was no longer in a hurry, but she had to go.
Caius stopped her again, "Where are you going?"
He doesn't know anything yet.
"I'll go find Li Ci and bring him back."
Li Qiao said it very casually, as if he was just going out for a walk.
But Caius knew that she was going to leave by plane.
"Can't you not go?"
"No, he's too unpopular. I won't go. No one cares about him. There's no such thing as letting things fend for themselves. If I leave him alone, he might die out there. He's stupid, but this is too much."
"What did he do?" It seems like he did something bad.
Li Qiao didn't really want to say it, so he sneered, "What can he do? He's just stupid."
"His boss asked him to go to a drinking party. We don't know what happened there, but he never came out."
Caius yawned, "Perhaps he is resting in there."
As if worried that Li Qiao would be worried, he added: "You are such a good fighter, he is your relative, he should not be much worse than you."
So don't worry, he can protect himself.
Self-protection ability...
Li Ci really doesn't have any.
"He never fought."
Li Qiao looked disgusted and said, "The old man downstairs who loves to play chess, Li Ci can't even beat him."
Caius: “…”
That's a bit hard to understand.
"Will it be dangerous? I'll go with you..."
"no."
Li Qiao stopped him from saying anything, "The children are too young. You play with them for a while. I'm worried about others."
These words made Caius elated, and he agreed immediately.
Just as he was about to change his words, Li Qiao ran away and told him, "I'll be back soon."
"I didn't even have time to turn around..."
Caius stood there blankly. Li Qiao's back had already disappeared, but he was still watching.
Little Li Yao heard everything they said, but he didn't understand. However, it didn't matter if he didn't understand, because his brother would understand.
So he recorded all of them and waited for his brother to listen to them when he was free.
"You are so stupid." He ate the sugar-roasted chestnuts, mumbling something in his mouth, and for the first time he looked at Caius without any admiration in his eyes.
When his son called him stupid, Caius did not ask the child what specific "stupid" he meant. He only knew that he wanted to send the child to a place where he could feel at ease.
It's okay even if he doesn't go home for a few days.
"Dad, if you dare to run, I will complain to Mom."
