Chapter 331 Qiao Xi, You Found a Treasure
She looked at Qiao Xi with envy and jealousy on her face.
"Qiao Xi, you told me last time that your husband prepared an invitation letter for the auction to prevent others from bidding against you. In addition to the medical books and the bronze acupuncture figurine, there was also a sapphire ring. Is that right?"
Qiao Xi nodded slowly, "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Shu Xue's expression was very complicated: "I remember that you didn't want to celebrate your birthday on August 1st, saying that it belonged to Xu Xingluo, and instead wanted to celebrate the birthday on your ID card, which is September 1st."
Qiao Xi was confused and said, "Yes."
Huo Sijiao and Du Yan once tentatively raised this topic and asked her if she wanted to hold a birthday party.
Qiao Xi said that she didn't want to celebrate her birthday on the same day as Xu Xingluo, so it was Grandma Qiao who took her to register on September 1st.
She wanted to regard this day as her birthday forever, and she also firmly stated that she did not recognize the Liu family.
She wants to be Qiao Xi.
She doesn't want to be the jewel in the crown of the Liu family, the enviable family in Haicheng.
As Qiao Xi, one day she will shine brighter than a pearl.
Shu Xue was so excited that she couldn't express it in words. She was more excited than if she had won the lottery. "Qiao Xi, I really feel as sour as if I had eaten a truckload of lemons! He gave you a sapphire ring! Why not a platinum diamond ring, not an emerald jade, but a sapphire!"
why!
Qiao Xi didn’t know either.
She seems to have had a weak sense of romance since childhood.
At that time, even the meaning of the blue gum flower was told to her by Shu Xue.
Shu Xue tried to suppress her voice and almost broke it.
"Because September's birthstone is sapphire!"
"Because Huo Xingzhou took your words to heart!"
"Because he understands you, respects you, and loves you deeply!"
Shu Xue knows all about these things and would watch them on her daily video feed when she has free time. She looked at Qiao Xi and said, "You've found a treasure! Sapphire also represents loyalty and steadfastness!"
"Qiao Xi, he is confessing his love to you! Even though he is married, he is still expressing his love in a subtle way."
Some men don't say love.
But love and loyalty are reflected in every detail.
Qiao Xi's red lips were slightly parted.
My heartbeat suddenly accelerated at this moment.
It was like a flock of egrets flying over a calm lake, their slight flapping of wings causing ripples.
Her mind was in a mess.
Shu Xue looked at her blankly and said, "You didn't know this until today, did you?"
Qiao Xi said with a tight throat: "I thought he took the photo of the wedding ring to make up for our regret of not having a wedding. I didn't expect it to have so many meanings. I thought it was just an ordinary wedding ring. It just happened to be available at the auction, so he took the photo."
Even so, she was moved.
Shu Xue was so angry that she couldn't make it. "What did you tell me at the beginning? 8.8 million! Can't I just buy you a pigeon egg diamond ring? Is he a fool to spend so much money on a sapphire wedding ring?"
In the market, diamond rings over five carats can be called dove eggs.
Where can I spend 8.8 million?
Qiao Xi was scolded by her, but her heart felt sweet yet sour.
Shu Xue took a deep breath and looked at her, then asked, "Do you think your husband's main purpose in going to the auction was to bid for medical books or for wedding rings?"
If it were before, Qiao Xi would have thought that he was helping her take pictures of medical books and bronze figures.
But now, she wasn't sure.
Wedding rings are a token of thought.
Medical books are also a token of my heart’s love.
Shu Xue covered her chest and said, "Oh, I'm so suffocated! You two are so irritating when you're being romantic. How can you express your feelings in such a subtle and reserved way? He's simply talking to a cow!"
Qiao Xi pointed at her nose and said, "I am a cow?"
Shu Xue was emotional: "You are a cow, a pig! You are a little fool! I am worried about your husband! For so long, he didn't say a word?"
Qiao Xi shook her head.
Huo Xingzhou is not Zhang Yang's man.
Qiao Xi suddenly got up from the red wine pool, put on a bathrobe and said, "Shu Xue, you soak first. I'm going to find my husband!"
"Hey? You're just going to leave me like this?"
"I'll let Master Zhou come to accompany you!"
Qiao Xi trotted a few steps barefoot to the men's bathing pool. Zhou Yu was startled and quickly retreated into the water.
"Sister-in-law, why are you launching a surprise attack?"
Qiao Xi's face was reddened by the pool water. She said, "Zhou Yu, go chat with Shu Xue. Xing Zhou and I have something to talk about."
"Ahem, I'm not familiar with Nurse Shu. Is this a bad idea?"
Although it's okay to take a red wine bath, many places have large baths where men and women can have sex together.
Qiao Xi lied in all seriousness: "I know you two are not familiar with each other and have many misunderstandings about each other. This is a good opportunity to explain everything. Shu Xue is a very good girl and we will have many opportunities to meet each other in the future. You can't quarrel with her every time, right?"
Zhou Yu said modestly: "Since it is my sister-in-law's good intention, I will reluctantly agree to it."
"Um."
Qiao Xi nodded obediently, "Go ahead."
Zhou Yu got out of the water and left the bathtub.
Huo Xingzhou leaned against the pool wall, his eyes stained with a bit of water vapor and looked even darker. With a smile on his lips, he looked at Qiao Xi calmly and said, "How come you can fool people?"
Qiao Xi slowly entered the water and got very close to him.
"I need to get rid of Mr. Zhou. He is the biggest light bulb."
Qiao Xi's pretty face blushed slightly, and she looked up at him brightly: "I just want to be alone with you." She took the initiative to stretch out her hand and hugged his strong waist.
Huo Xingzhou raised his eyebrows: "What stimulated you?"
She is not a proactive person.
Normally, it takes a lot of effort to coax her to take the initiative. But Huo Xingzhou enjoys this kind of pulling and ambiguous feeling and likes to indulge her.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, her fair skin dyed a layer of light pink by the hot spring, and said: "Why did you take a photo of my sapphire wedding ring? Is it because it is the birthstone of September?"
What Shu Xue said was too subtle, and she wanted to confirm it again.
Huo Xingzhou's eyes flashed darkly: "Is your stupid head finally coming to your senses?"
"It turns out to be true." Qiao Xi's heart was shaken, and every cell in her body was filled with an indescribable emotion. "Except grandma, no one cares so much about me. Have you ever thought that if Shu Xue didn't tell me, I might never know the feelings you hid in the sapphire in my life."
He looked indifferent and arrogant: "So what?"
He is not a megaphone that needs to publicize everything he does.
Time reveals a person's true character.
He asked, "Qiao Xi, does not having these things prove that I don't love you enough? I'm not looking for your return."
Qiao Xi looked at him and buried her head deeply in his arms.
"You're always so nice!"
He is so good that sometimes she can't help but feel inferior, wondering how she could have the honor to have such a man!
If the sufferings in the first half of her life were just fate playing tricks on her.
That started from the moment I met Huo Xingzhou.
It was a piece of candy that fate gave her as compensation.
This candy is too sweet!
Qiao Xi was about to say something to express her feelings when Huo Xingzhou suddenly pulled her away.
Bang!
The screen that blocked my view fell down heavily, splashing water all over the ground!
