Chapter 485 Don't worry, your husband can afford this gift

As time passed, the young man's unknown thoughts were forever hidden in the deepest part of his heart.

No one knew that the young man traveled thousands of miles back just to take one last look at the white moonlight.

Qiao Xingchen stayed with her sister for dinner, the first time and also the last time.

After lunch, Meng Zhiyi and Qiao Shuwo chatted together, while Qiao Xingchen took care of the baby and played games with the siblings.

In the spacious living room, the laughter of the two sisters could be heard from behind from time to time.

Qiao Xingchen was holding a toy in his hand and was distracted for a moment. His thoughts drifted away, but he was quickly brought back to his senses by the laughter of the two children.

At this moment, a sound came from the entrance.

Shen Nian, who was still clinging to him a second ago, immediately turned his head to look, then quickly got up and ran over on his short legs.

"dad!"

As soon as Shen Que entered the house, he saw his daughter running towards him.

His eyes softened, he put down his coat, and reached out to pick up his daughter.

Shen Que held her in his arms, a smile on his face, and asked softly, "Did Nian Nian behave well today? Did you not make mom angry?"

Shen Nian hugged his father's neck and said in a baby voice, "No, Nian Nian is very well behaved!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Que felt his trouser leg being pulled.

When he looked down, he saw his son Shen Yu's little hand grabbing his pants.

Shen Que simply bent down and hugged them both, one on the left and one on the right.

Walking in, I saw Qiao Xingchen putting toys into a storage box.

The person in front of him had changed a lot from his youth. Shen Que was confused for a few seconds before he remembered such a person.

He raised his eyebrows, remembering that this kid used to be his love rival.

Of course, it was the love rival he had strangled in the cradle.

"Mr. Shen." Qiao Xingchen turned around and greeted him politely.

Logically speaking, he is Qiao Shu's younger brother, so he should also be called Brother Shen.

But Qiao Xingchen was unwilling after all.

As for the reason, even he didn't understand it.

Shen Que smiled and nodded at him, saying, "Let them put away the toys themselves in the future, you don't have to worry about it."

Qiao Xingchen: "It's easy, no trouble."

While the two were talking, Meng Zhiyi and Qiao Shu noticed that Shen Que had returned.

"Oh, it's already afternoon, I didn't even notice the time." Qiao Shu quickly glanced at her phone, then stood up and said, "We have to go, we have an appointment to go to my cousin's house in the evening."

"Okay, drive slowly on your way, and we'll get together again next time when we have time." Meng Zhiyi didn't stay any longer and stood up to see the siblings out.

"Sister Meng, goodbye."

When getting in the car, Qiao Xingchen was already halfway inside the car, but he still couldn't help but turned around and glanced at Meng Zhiyi.

Meng Zhiyi smiled and waved: "Goodbye."

But she didn't know that after that, Qiao Xingchen went abroad and never came back.

Even when Qiao Shu and Meng Tinglan got married, he only blessed his sister through a video call.

This farewell is for a lifetime.

After seeing off the Qiao siblings, Meng Zhiyi returned home and saw Shen Que playing games with the two children.

The gift that Qiao Xingchen gave her was still on the tea table in the living room.

She walked over to pick it up and found that it still had some weight.

"What is this?" Shen Que came over, put his arms around her, tilted his head and kissed her on the face.

"It's a wedding gift from Qiao Shu's brother." Meng Zhiyi said as he carefully opened the gift box.

The moment it was opened, not only Meng Zhiyi, but even Shen Que was a little surprised.

Meng Zhiyi's eyes widened: "This is..."

Shen Que raised his eyebrows and followed her words, explaining, "The 'Lost Heart' exhibited at this year's auction is said to be the favorite gem of the ancient Egyptian pharaoh's favorite concubine. It was bought by a mysterious tycoon for 900 million M dollars."

After saying this, Shen Que smiled and continued, "As expected of a family with a mine, you are really generous in your spending."

Meng Zhiyi felt that it was a bit hot to hold.

Her relationship with Qiao Xingchen was not close enough for her to receive such an expensive gift.

But there is no reason to return the gift you received...

As if he could see her embarrassment, Shen Que closed the gift box without even glancing at it, and then said, "Since he wanted to give it to me, my wife should just keep it."

Meng Zhiyi frowned: "But it's too expensive."

Shen Que chuckled, lowered his head and pecked her lips lightly, saying, "Don't worry, your husband can return the gift."

Hearing him say this, Meng Zhiyi's burden suddenly became lighter.

the other side.

After the car left Meng Zhiyi's house, Qiao Xingchen looked out the window all the way, as if he wanted to remember every tree and blade of grass here.

And Qiao Shu, who was sitting next to him, seemed to understand her brother's concerns many years later.

She bit her lower lip and asked casually, "Xingchen, what did you give to your sister Meng?"

Qiao Xingchen: "The gem I bought last time."

"? The one I took last time..." Qiao Shu thought for a moment, her eyes slightly widened: "The 'Lost Heart'?"

The reason why he knew about this gem was because the person who accompanied Qiao Xingchen to the auction was Brother Qiao.

At that time, Qiao Shu was talking to him on the phone and asked her brother to help her take pictures of the things she wanted.

And I heard Qiao Xingchen say over the phone that he wanted to film "Lost Heart".

Qiao Shu clearly remembers that her elder brother asked her, "Why are you taking pictures of that? That's something women like."

Qiao Xingchen said: "I want to give it to a girl I like. I think she will like it."

Today, Qiao Xingchen gave Meng Zhiyi the gift of the 'Lost Heart' that he had photographed.

Qiao Xingchen retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, and responded lightly: "Yeah."

Qiao Shu blinked, her brain working rapidly, and she finally asked the most unlikely question.

"You don't like Meng Zhiyi, do you?"

Right?

Right?

Was she right?

This time, Qiao Xingchen did not answer so quickly, but remained silent for a long time.

Qiao Shu felt her eyelids twitching, and then she frantically searched through her memories, trying to find out when her brother fell in love with her.

"No...you haven't had contact for several times. When exactly?"

Qiao Xingchen pursed her lips, and her memory was quickly pulled back to that summer.

"I'll fight you back, okay?"

"So you want me to help you? If not, I'm leaving."

"If you encounter something like today, just report it directly, don't waste your breath on trash people."

"My brother is quite handsome."

The underage boy was standing behind the screen, and when he heard his sister say this with a smile, his heart was immersed in it uncontrollably.

It seems like it happened just yesterday, yet it is already too far away to be caught.

Qiao Shu stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "Xingchen, what are you daydreaming about? You haven't answered me yet."

Qiao Xingchen collected his thoughts, pushed the memory back into his heart, and murmured, "It doesn't matter, as long as she is happy."

Qiao Shu opened her mouth, but finally swallowed back what she was about to say.

From then on, when the boy fell in love became a secret known to no one.
