Chapter 869 I Miss You Every Day
"Of course, baby. I miss you every time I'm apart from you, not just today. Can I come pick you up early for lunch?"
Mo Yanchu's reaction was beyond Qiao Qingci's expectations. Far from feeling strange or controlled, he actually felt quite pleased. Did he enjoy being so clingy and controlled?
Qiao Qingci felt as if she had discovered another attribute of Mo Yanchu. At the same time, she also discovered that when she heard Mo Yanchu say that he would miss her every day when they were apart, her first reaction was not to ask him to concentrate on his work, but to feel equally happy.
It was a kind of secret happiness, as if discovering that one was God's favorite child and could act without restraint in front of him, but only one knew this secret.
Qiao Qingci had an obedient smile on her face, but deep down, she was surprised that the post Jiang Xiaoyu sent her was really interesting. She didn't know which love guru wrote it.
After saying goodbye to Mo Yanchu, Qiao Qingci walked in the hall of Shengshi Entertainment while chuckling and sending feedback to Jiang Xiaoyu. When he looked up again, Qiao Qingci saw Murong. After not seeing him for a while, Qiao Qingci felt that Murong's face almost had no smile, and he seemed to have lost weight.
"Murong."
Qiao Qingci called out to her. She looked around at Murong and asked in confusion, "Has anything happened to you recently? Why do you look so unwell?"
Murong just came to the company from home. In the past, she was always very happy to see Qiao Qingci, but when she saw Qiao Qingci today, she thought of Qiao Yunxi at home, and wondered if he had left yet.
Murong tried his best to keep his expression the same as usual, "I've been doing fine recently. Isn't it popular to be thinner now? It looks better on camera."
"But you looked great on camera before. Being too thin is unhealthy." Qiao Qingci said, "You're a singer. You don't need to hold yourself to the same standards as idols. That's too harsh on you. I hope you can be a happy little princess in the entertainment industry."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, you are so kind to me."
Murong felt very warm in her heart. At the same time, she became more determined that nothing should happen between her and Qiao Yunxi, otherwise it would be a mess. If her sister-in-law knew about her and her third brother... Murong didn't dare to think about it anymore. Moreover, as a person like her who was prejudiced and resistant to love and marriage, it was not suitable for her to form a family with others. Third Brother Qiao was such a good person, he would find his own happiness.
Murong was immersed in her own thoughts and did not hear what Qiao Qingci said next for a while. After Qiao Qingci finished speaking, he waved his hand in front of her in confusion, and Murong came back to her senses.
"Sister-in-law, what did you just say?"
Qiao Qingci looked at Murong, whose mind wandered even as he spoke, and sighed, "I'm saying that you should balance work and rest. If there's an activity you don't like, ask your agent to help you turn it down. Oh, and I'll be back at the Qiao family's this weekend. Didn't you say last time that you liked the squirrel mandarin fish the chef made? Let's go together then."
“No!”
When Murong heard this, he immediately shook his head hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, I won't go this time."
Qiao Qingci asked doubtfully, "Why? Are you afraid of trouble? It's okay, and I checked specifically, you didn't have any weekend announcements."
"It's not because of work." Murong tried hard to suppress the expression in her eyes. She didn't dare to look into Qiao Qingci's eyes. "I have an appointment with other friends this weekend and I can't break it."
"Okay, since you have an appointment, let's go together next time." Qiao Qingci gave Murong some instructions on life matters before letting Murong leave.
On the weekend, Qiao Qingci and Mo Yanchu went to the Qiao family together. When the car drove to the gate of the manor, Qiao Qingci saw Qiao Yunxi standing there looking at them.
Parking the car next to him, Qiao Qingci opened the window and asked in confusion, "Third brother, why are you standing here?"
"I was thinking about you coming, so I came out to pick someone up." Qiao Yunxi glanced at Qiao Qingci, then his eyes fell on the back seat.
The back seat was empty, and Mo Yanchu had already opened the back door. Qiao Qingci said, "Third brother, we're still some distance away, hurry up and get in the car."
Qiao Yunxi pursed his lips and got into the car in silence. In the past, Qiao Yunxi was always sunny and lively. Today, Qiao Qingci found that he was a little absent-minded after getting in the car, with one hand supporting his chin, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Qiao Qingci looked at Mo Yanchu and winked at him.
Mo Yanchu also noticed his friend's abnormality, but he hadn't heard about what happened to Qiao Yunxi recently, so he could only shake his head at Qiao Qingci.
In the back seat, Qiao Yunxi looked out the window, his eyes clearly dimmed.
He didn't know what he was expecting today. After what happened, how could Murong come again?
That day he said he would take responsibility, but Murong directly refused and asked him to forget what had happened. However, for several days, Qiao Yunxi kept recalling the scene of that day and the bright red on the bed.
