Chapter 64 Chapter 64 Your boyfriend used your trick to hit...
The natural year has entered its last day, and all is well.
Si Mo has made great progress and can already take on some small orders.
Xiao Luo got good grades at the end of the semester and became much calmer.
Xiang Yuan's legs have recovered well. Maybe it's because he's been lying in bed for too long, but his problem of hearing something in one ear and out the other has also improved a little.
Grandma Xu and Grandpa Guan were in good health. At noon, they brought me roasted sweet potatoes and stewed oranges, and the house was filled with fragrance all afternoon.
Qiao Yuyi and Qin Yun said that the balance payment could be received in time.
Everyone is moving forward smoothly, and this year has ended very well. After work, I can stay in Tan Du's house and enjoy my world as a couple.
Qiao Zhuoyi sat on the sofa and hummed a tune unconsciously.
"Brother Zhuo, what's going on today?" Xiao Luo finished mopping the floor and chuckled, "It's rare to hear you sing."
"Although it's out of tune, the sound is very nice," said Simo.
"Thank you..." Qiao Zhuoyi handed the two another small red envelope. "Hurry up and go home."
"Okay! By the way," Xiao Luo took out two toys, "Brother Zhuo, these are for the two kids."
"Okay," Qiao Zhuo patted his pockets, "Thank you, Brother Xiao Luo."
"I didn't prepare any gifts." Si Mo lowered his head and searched for something on his body.
"No, this isn't a necessary procedure," Qiao Zhuo pointed at Xiao Luo, "You've made a good start..."
"Here." Si Mo handed him a plate of hairpins, "This is for the girl."
"Shit!" Xiao Luo was shocked. "Where did you get that from? No...how could you have something so fancy?!"
Si Mo usually wears her waist-length hair tied up with a hairpin, and her clothing style is also simple and elegant. Even Zhou Jue probably wouldn't have thought that she has such eye-catching accessories.
She fished out her bag, reached in and groped around for a while, then pulled out another model: "This is for the boy."
"...Thank you." Qiao Zhuo took it and closed Xiao Luo's jaw. "Don't let your teeth catch a cold."
Xiao Luo swallowed his saliva and gave a thumbs up: "Si Mo, you are the sweeping monk version of Doraemon!"
"No," Si Mo said, still expressionless. He put on his backpack and said, "Let's go. See you next year."
"I'm leaving too." Xiao Luo smiled and waved, "Brother Zhuo, see you next year!"
"See you next year."
Perhaps it was because the ending was too smooth, Qiao Zhuoyi always felt a little uneasy. He checked Guiyi inside and out, and made sure that nothing was missing. Only then did he feel relieved and prepared to ask whether Tan Du was finished.
Just as he picked up the phone, it rang. It was the same string of numbers again. He was annoyed and hung up and blocked the call.
The next second, Lele called again.
Qiao Zhuo's heart skipped a beat, and he felt something was wrong. He picked up the phone cautiously: "Le..."
"Uncle! Grandpa wants to talk to you!" Lele shouted on the other end of the phone.
"Be good, Lele, go play over there."
Another voice came from the other side. Qiao Zhuo gritted his teeth and said, "Qiao, Ting, come in!"
Qiao Tingjin gave an address and then hung up the phone.
Qiao Zhuo's teeth chattered. He should have thought of this earlier. Qiao Yuyi and Qin Yun had been in trouble frequently in the company recently, and Qiao Tingjin must have been behind it. He picked up the car keys and rushed out.
squeak--
The car stopped at the hotel entrance. When Qiao Zhuo saw Tan Du's WeChat message, he regained his composure and replied first.
When the phone rang, he didn't want to answer it, fearing that if he did, he wouldn't have the momentum to fight against Qiao Tingjin.
But he couldn't bear to do so, fearing that Tan Du would be anxious.
It was also strange that at that moment, he missed Tan Du's voice madly.
The words "waiting for you" from the other end of the line were like a tranquilizer, calming him down completely.
He leaned back in his chair and thought for a while, then called Liang Yizi before getting out of the car and walking towards the box.
"Xiao Zhuo is here."
As expected, Zhang Yuru's voice came first, with a smile on her face, asking him to sit down quickly.
"Where's Lele?" Qiao Zhuoyi didn't expect to get a reply and walked towards the inner room. Zhang Yuru hurried over to stop him.
"Get out of the way."
During the stalemate, the door was pushed open from the inside. The man who came out was wearing a pair of glasses, with a shrewd look in his eyes. Even though he was old, his figure was very straight.
Qiao Zhuo's eyes fell on the back of him, where Lele was sleeping soundly on the small bed.
Qiao Tingjin gave a wink, Zhang Yuru walked in, and Qiao Zhuo hurriedly held the door.
Qiao Tingjin said calmly, "If you dare to snatch her away, I guarantee Qin Yun won't get the final payment."
"You two, father and son, just have a good chat and don't scare Lele." Zhang Yuru closed the door with a smile.
Qiao Tingjin walked over to a chair and sat down, snorting heavily, "You're so capable now, but I still have to ask so many times to see you."
"Didn't you tell me to get out?"
"You have to come when I tell you to!" Qiao Tingjin shot him a sharp look.
Yes, he can give up his son, but the son cannot give up his father.
This is the dignity that Qiao Tingjin wants.
Qiao Zhuoyi exhaled slowly and got straight to the point: "What do you want me to do?"
"Someone from the Cheng family will be here soon. You can meet their daughter and have a meal together."
Qiao Tingjin never does anything that is not profitable.
Qiao Zhuoyi immediately understood what he meant and sneered, "You let a homosexual go on a blind date with their daughter?" "Do you think the Cheng family are fools?"
Bang--
Qiao Tingjin slammed his palm on the table: "Shut up! How could my son, Qiao Tingjin, be gay!"
Qiao Zhuo looked at him coldly.
Qiao Tingjin calmed down and said, "Your Uncle Liang's guarantee proves that you were led astray by his son. You are young and ignorant, and your words are just angry. Remember, you are a normal person."
Normal person?
As soon as Qiao Zhuo saw his sanctimonious face, he felt nauseous. Obviously, Qiao Tingjin didn't like him either and looked down on him as if he were a piece of recycled waste.
Before he came out, he and Qiao Yuyi were items for sale.
Fortunately, neither of them did as Qiao Tingjin wished.
"Cheng family? Why?" Qiao Zhuo asked.
"You're the one who made a fool of yourself on that lousy show! But it did have some use. The Cheng family's daughter saw it and said she liked you." Qiao Tingjin said, "They'll be here soon, so you better behave yourself."
I see.
Qiao Zhuo tapped his finger on the side of his leg. It seemed that what Liang Yizi said on the phone just now was right. Qiao Tingjin and his father were working together to win a bid. The Cheng family had the raw materials needed for the project, but they were unable to agree on the price.
Today's meal is a Hongmen Banquet to cut costs.
"I won't lie." Qiao Zhuoyi said.
Qiao Tingjin glanced at the time and said, "Just coax her into submission today, and you can handle it yourself from now on."
"If I have this meal today, you will no longer interfere with Qin Yun's business and will no longer suddenly take Lele away." Qiao Zhuo said word by word.
"You don't have to touch business."
Qiao Tingjin's reply was flawless. Qiao Zhuoyi, who had dealt with Dian Heng frequently, could naturally tell that he had deliberately omitted the last condition and insisted, "And Lele."
Qiao Tingjin stared at him with a gloomy brow: "You can only choose one."
Qiao Zhuo's chest heaved, as if he was about to lose control of his anger.
People with soft spots are best handled when they lose their minds.
Qiao Tingjin had always controlled his son this way. He enjoyed taking back the initiative and said with good intentions, "I'm Lele's grandfather, and you can't change that. If I were you, I'd choose the first one. Money is the most important thing. Otherwise, if the workers start making trouble, Qin Yun won't be able to handle it. Then, Lele will be safe with me."
As soon as Qiao Zhuo looked at him, he could sense from his eyes that he was seeking revenge.
To avenge himself and Qiao Yuyi for living against his wishes.
To avenge them for being able to live well without him.
He lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while, as if he was helpless. After the other party had enjoyed his powerlessness enough, he took out his phone and said to him, "Record a video. Promise that as long as I lie to the Cheng family and say I'm not gay, you will stop doing anything behind Qin Yun's back and messing with his company."
"No need." Qiao Tingjin said.
"I need it." Qiao Zhuo made a gesture to open the door.
"Sit down." Qiao Tingjin said solemnly.
Qiao Zhuoyi curled his lips and picked up his phone.
Tan Du pressed the dial button with his finger and called Liang Yizi. The other party didn't answer, and a number came back.
Tan Du stepped out of the car and headed straight for Box 106. Before he reached the door, he saw two men and one woman walking out with grim expressions. Then, the sound of something being smashed was heard from the box.
His heart tightened and he rushed in immediately.
A middle-aged man was smashing things at the dining table, and the woman next to him was whispering to him.
Qiao Zhuoyi leaned against the wall and looked at them coldly.
Tan Du breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed his arm and whispered, "Zhuo Yi, are you okay?"
"Why are you here?" Qiao Zhuo frowned.
"Are you hurt anywhere?" Tan Du looked at him.
"Did Qiao Yuyi ask you to come?" Qiao Zhuo asked.
"Is Lele okay?" Tan Du asked.
"Are you trying to stop me again?" Qiao Zhuo looked at him expressionlessly. "It's too late this time. Boss, I've done everything I should and shouldn't have done."
"You can do whatever you want. Do you need my help? Fighting or swearing, I can do it." Tan Du confirmed that he was not injured, held his hand, and felt a chill. He didn't know what had just happened. Qiao Zhuoyi was not in a good condition.
Qiao Zhuoyi gave him a deep look and said, "No need, I've done it all."
"I'm late, sorry." Tan Du tightened his grip and looked into his eyes. "Now that we're done, let's go home, okay?"
"Okay," Qiao Zhuo's eyes felt sore and swollen, and he felt a little weak. He said in a hoarse voice, "Le Le has fallen asleep in the small room. Go and bring him out."
"Okay, wait for me." Tan Du walked towards the small room, and a roar erupted behind him, "Who are you?!"
He turned around. The man looked somewhat similar to Qiao Zhuoyi, but his temperament was very different. There was calculation hidden under the glasses. Whether he looked at him or Qiao Zhuoyi, it was like looking at an enemy.
This is not the look a father should have.
He walked in silently and carried Lele out.
This time the man didn't say anything, but the woman rushed over: "Why did you take Lele away? Zhuoyi, you..."
Qiao Zhuoyi walked over and stood in front of Tan Du: "Take him to the car first."
"Together." Tan Du said.
Qiao Zhuo looked at Zhang Yuru and whispered, "Isn't this what you want? If you act it out again, it will be too late. Be careful that I will regret it."
Zhang Yuru looked at him and took a step back.
"Walk."
When they reached the door, they could still hear her crying, "How can I stop them... I don't know what the relationship between that man and Xiao Zhuo is... His shady business..."
"Zhuo Yi." Tan Du said. Qiao Zhuo turned around. "What's wrong?"
Tan Du put the child in his arms and said, "Wait for me."
Before Qiao Zhuoyi could react, Tan Du came in again, straightened his clothes, stood tall, spoke slowly and clearly, and said, "I haven't greeted you two yet. I'm Yu Yi's friend, and she asked me to take Lele away.
“No matter who you are, taking a child without the guardian’s consent is against the law.
“Qiao Zhuoyi is a tattoo artist and a leader in the industry.
"Qiao Zhuoyi and I are lovers, it's legal."
After saying that, he didn't care about the reactions of the people inside, walked out, holding Lele in one hand and holding Qiao Zhuoyi in the other, and walked out steadily.
As soon as I arrived at the hotel entrance, I met Qiao Yuyi and Qin Yun who came there.
The two took the child and left without saying anything else. They asked Tan Du to take good care of Qiao Zhuoyi.
When they got in the car, Tan Du asked Qiao Zhuoyi to drink some hot water first and then calm down. "Are you okay?"
Qiao Zhuo looked at him and said nothing.
Tan Du tried to lighten the mood and said with a smile, "How's it going? Didn't I embarrass you just now?"
More than nothing.
Qiao Zhuoyi raised the corner of his lips and said, "Boss Tan, your boyfriend fought a good battle using your tactics. Do you want to hear about it?"
Tan Du breathed a sigh of relief and held his hand tightly: "I will listen to whatever you want to say."
"Well," Qiao Zhuoyi looked at him and said, "I'll tell you everything about my family."
"Go home first, and we'll talk slowly when we get home."
"Okay, let's go home."
