Jiang Qiaoqiao met Tong Xuejiao's assertive gaze and said with a smile, "This isn't up to me. You can ask Bei Xiao."
Tong Xuejiao was surprised that even after she said that, Jiang Qiaoqiao remained completely calm.
At this moment, Huo Beixiao returned carrying two enamel mugs.
He sat down next to Jiang Qiaoqiao naturally. "What are you talking about?"
Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't speak, but looked at Tong Xuejiao.
Tong Xuejiao laughed heartily and said, "Tell your wife to divorce you and give you back to me."
Huo Beixiao's aura instantly intensified, and he looked at Tong Xuejiao with a sharp gaze, "Please don't joke like that with my wife."
Tong Xuejiao paused for a moment, a hint of bitterness creeping into her smile.
"I've known you for so many years, and I've never seen you care about anyone like this before."
She first met Huo Beixiao on the black market.
At that time, Huo Beixiao had a plum vase in his possession, which caught the eye of a big shot in the black market. When the big shot failed to lower the price, he decided to steal it from Huo Beixiao.
Huo Beixiao was only 14 years old at the time, but his fearless and ruthless fighting spirit with those desperados instantly attracted her.
Therefore, she later chose to partner with Huo Beixiao.
Later, the policy of sending educated youth back to the city was implemented, and the spring breeze of reform and opening up gradually swept across the land. She also took advantage of this spring breeze to make money.
Over the years, she has met many people, and many people have introduced her to potential partners.
But none of them caught her eye.
Whenever someone asks her what kind of person she's looking for, she always thinks of that young boy who was calm and experienced in business at a young age, but who was willing to risk his life in a fight.
She contacted her old acquaintances in the black market and learned that Huo Beixiao was still unmarried, which made her determined to find him.
Unexpectedly, just a few months later, he was already married.
Moreover, the person he married was the one he cherished most in his heart.
"I haven't met anyone I care about before," Huo Beixiao said without any hesitation.
His eyes, which were full of tenderness, were fixed on Jiang Qiaoqiao as he turned to look at her.
Jiang Qiaoqiao: ...
Although she knew Huo Beixiao was putting on an act for Tong Xuejiao, she had to admit that the man looked at her with such a captivating gaze.
She really couldn't resist!
"Bei Xiao, could you step aside for a bit and let me say a few more words to your wife?" Tong Xuejiao said, lighting a cigarette.
Huo Beixiao frowned. "You can talk, but put out your cigarette first."
Tong Xuejiao looked at Jiang Qiaoqiao, surprised, "Pregnant?"
Jiang Qiaoqiao: ...
Huo Beixiao: "No, but Qiaoqiao doesn't like the smell of smoke."
Jiang Qiaoqiao was also surprised. She did dislike the smell of smoke, but she had never told Huo Beixiao about it. How did Huo Beixiao know?
Tong Xuejiao stubbed out her cigarette. "Okay, I'm done."
Huo Beixiao then turned to look at Jiang Qiaoqiao, "I'll be outside. Call me if you need anything."
Jiang Qiaoqiao nodded.
As soon as Huo Beixiao went out, Tong Xuejiao's eyes met Jiang Qiaoqiao's.
But she remained silent for a long time.
She didn't speak, so Jiang Qiaoqiao naturally didn't say anything either.
After a while, she chuckled softly, "Actually, I don't have much to say to you. I just want to remind you to treat him well. If you don't, don't blame me for taking him away."
Also, I inquired about his business before I came, and I might have many collaborations with him in the future. Please control your emotions and don't act unreasonably out of jealousy, lest you ruin your relationship.
Jiang Qiaoqiao smiled at Tong Xuejiao without any fear, "Yes, I'll remember."
Tong Xuejiao got up and went out, saying directly to Huo Beixiao who was waiting outside, "Beixiao, see me off, and we can talk business while we're at it?"
Huo Beixiao's cold face remained expressionless. "We can discuss business tomorrow. Zhu Dong is waiting for you outside the gate. I won't see you off."
Tong Xuejiao shook her head helplessly, "You really are... more heartless now that you have a wife."
Huo Beixiao didn't say anything more and went straight back to his room.
On the other side.
Jiang Yong'an hurriedly entered a small hotel behind the train station.
Jiang Qiaoqiao, who had been waiting for him, immediately went up to him and asked, "Third Brother, did you manage to get me the money?"
Looking at Jiang Qiaoqiao's expectant face, Jiang Yong'an's expression turned serious. "Ranran, are you sure that little beggar named Jiang Chengzhi you picked up is the son of a rich family? What if he isn't..."
"Third Brother, even you don't believe me anymore?" Jiang Yiran's eyes instantly filled with tears as she looked at Jiang Yong'an with a pitiful expression and asked.
Jiang Yong'an panicked instantly, "Ranran, don't cry, don't cry, it's not that your third brother doesn't believe you. It's just... sigh!"
Jiang Yong'an sighed as he spoke, "Dad told me today that Huo Beixiao..."
Upon hearing the name Huo Beixiao, Jiang Yiran's eyes immediately lit up with excitement. "Huo Beixiao is under investigation, isn't he? I knew it. His whole family is no good. They'll be in trouble sooner or later."
Let's see how arrogant Jiang Qiaoqiao will be now!
She knew in her past life that Chen Yuexia secretly accepted a lot of gifts from the workers. After accepting the gifts, she would whisper sweet nothings in Huo Yuanshan's ear, helping him to transfer to a different job or be recognized as an advanced worker.
These things about the Huo family cannot withstand investigation.
In her past life, she married Huo Beixiao, but Huo Beixiao never gave her a kind look. Later, he even stopped coming home. She didn't get any of the benefits the Huo family had.
But in this lifetime, Huo Beixiao actually took Jiang Qiaoqiao to a high-end Western restaurant in the provincial capital under the guise of official business!
How could Jiang Qiaoqiao be a match for her!
