Tangning held Qiao Shiyu's arm, "What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing. Just looking at the moon at night."
"The waning moon isn't very pretty, what's there to look at? And you, on the other hand, can actually watch this scene unfold so brightly?" Tangning said disdainfully.
"Why can't I bear to watch it? He is just a person who has nothing to do with me." Qiao Shiyu said lightly.
Compared to what she experienced as a child, these were nothing.
"How can it be unrelated? He's the father of your child, and he's such a scumbag!"
Tang Ning said unhappily.
Qiao Shiyu just smiled.
After sending Qiao Shiyu home, Tang Ning left.
In the evening, Qiao Shiyu had a good sleep.
It seems that she is immune to many kinds of love.
On the next day, Qiao Shiyu went to see the house she had bought when she went to Songshan to buy the yard last time.
The current landlord gives her two thousand yuan in rent every month, which is not a small amount.
Qiao Shiyu knew that there was a development going on there recently, and it was said that it would take about a year. This "Jiangnan Restaurant" was a century-old courtyard with a very retro style. Qiao Shiyu boldly guessed that it would not be demolished, and even if it was demolished, she would still be able to get the demolition compensation.
She wondered why the owner hadn't called her yet?
She couldn't make this call first, because if she did, the effect would be reduced by half.
She learned last Monday that construction had begun on Songshan this week, with plans for major renovations to give the tourist attraction a completely new look next year.
Qiao Shiyu walked around the room.
On Sunday, Qiao Zhengye was watching TV while Luo Ni went out to buy groceries.
"What are you doing?" Qiao Shiyu walked back and forth, blocking Qiao Zhengye's view of the TV.
"Wait for a call. He should call me."
Qiao Zhengye didn't understand what Qiao Shiyu said and didn't ask any more questions.
As expected, around noon, Qiao Shiyu's phone rang. The boss first greeted Qiao Shiyu and asked her about her pregnancy and how she was doing recently. Qiao Shiyu said she was doing well and thanked her for calling to say hello.
There was silence for a moment, then someone said, "Miss Qiao, I actually have something to discuss with you. Construction started at Songshan last week, and there's no one here at all. It's a construction site, so business was already bad, and now it's even worse. We can't even make 2,000 yuan a month, and there's no one here all day. The yard is our own home, with no rent. We make money from every customer who comes, so there's no need to be so nervous, but now--"
"You want to lower the rent, right?" Qiao Shiyu asked. "Well, I was just about to call you. I saw the news that Songshan is starting to develop, and I also think two thousand dollars a month is too much to rent, especially with no tourists right now. I bought this house from you, and I know you don't have any business right now, so you don't have to pay rent. You can start paying next year when someone starts moving in."
There was silence for a moment. "Really? Miss Qiao, you have such good taste and foresight. That man is so lucky to marry you."
"Which one?" Qiao Shiyu was puzzled.
"That's the guy you came with last time. You're pregnant now, so you must be married."
Qiao Shiyu didn't answer the question. "I'll modify the lease agreement and sign it after the modifications. If you're worried, I'll have someone sign it with my ID card."
The other end said with deep emotion, "Miss Qiao, I've said it before, you will definitely achieve great success in the future."
Qiao Shiyu just smiled.
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Zhengye asked Qiao Shiyu what her response was and why she still signed the contract.
Qiao Shiyu casually told them that she had bought a farmhouse in Songshan, a remote suburb of Fengcheng, and that she was now offering them a rent reduction.
"Are you just waiting for his call?" Qiao Zhengye asked.
"Um."
"How did you know he would call?"
"It's human instinct. In this situation, he always has to try. It's not difficult to make a phone call. He probably didn't expect that I would not charge rent." Qiao Shiyu said while drinking water.
"Then why don't you take the initiative to call him?"
Qiao Shiyu laughed again. "Dad, weren't you a businessman back then? You don't even have this much brains? I begged him to lower the rent? How is that even possible? Have you ever seen a landlord proactively lower the rent for their tenants? If I called him, he'd wonder, 'Why did she proactively lower my rent?' Is there something fishy going on? He'd be nervous inside, but how could he compare to the gratitude he feels now?"
Qiao Zhengye seemed not to recognize Qiao Shiyu and looked at her a few more times.
"You just said you wanted someone to help you revise your contract. Who was it?"
Qiao Shiyu sat on the sofa and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, she said, "Jiang Yanyuan."
"Yanyuan is here?"
"Yes. And his rumored girlfriend Meng Zhaohua, you can invite them to dinner tomorrow or tomorrow." After saying that, Qiao Shiyu returned to her room.
Qiao Zhengye thought about the baby in Qiao Shiyu's belly, and then thought about Meng Zhaohua.
He sighed and thought, what a sin this is! Jiang Jing has a great reputation in his life, but he raised a son like this?
Instead of being ashamed, you are proud of it?
Qiao Zhengye didn't want Jiang Yanyuan to come home for dinner. After all, he and Qiao Shiyu had an inseparable and complicated relationship.
But since Qiao Qiao wanted him to sign the contract, he would do it reluctantly.
After Jiang Yanyuan returned home, he lay down on the bed and cried.
Meng Zhaohua wanted to live in his house, but Jiang Yanyuan refused and asked her to go to the Ritz Hotel.
He said he was drunk and wanted to be alone.
That night, Qiao Shiyu saw it, but left calmly.
So he got drunk.
He punched the cotton again, but received no response.
He hated her, hated her to death.
He had never seen such a heartless woman, so stubborn.
He didn't even wash up and fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, he was woken up by a phone call from Qiao Zhengye. Seeing that it was Qiao Zhengye, Jiang Yanyuan immediately stood up from the bed, "Uncle Qiao."
"Yanyuan, I heard from Qiao Qiao that you came to Jiangcheng. Uncle Qiao wants to treat you to a meal. You and Miss Meng should come together." Qiao Zhengye said, "It's better to eat at my house. Someone will cook."
"Okay. I understand."
Jiang Yanyuan hung up the phone. Qiao Shiyu saw it yesterday and had this reaction. She wanted to treat him to a meal?
She looks quite happy.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yanyuan and Meng Zhaohua came to Qiao Shiyu's house.
Qiao Shiyu was cutting vegetables in the kitchen, the two of them were chatting and laughing. Qiao Shiyu seemed to be asking how to make a certain bamboo shoot delicious. Luo Ni then said that when it comes to cooking, we have to talk about Jiang Jing and President Jiang. The dishes they cook are so good that Luo Ni can never compare to them in her lifetime.
"I have to say, some people's cooking skills rely entirely on their intuition, and President Jiang's intuition is incredibly high." Luo Ni recalled a company dinner one year when Jiang Jingyi showed off his cooking skills. Everyone in the company seemed to be addicted to it and couldn't forget it. "I still miss President Jiang's cooking now. It was so delicious. President Jiang is a person who can do everything, and he always counts."
Qiao Shiyu was cutting vegetables while saying "hmm". She didn't want to listen to Jiang Jing's sarcasm.
But Ronnie probably couldn't help but bring it up.
Jiang Yanyuan and Meng Zhaohua came in, and Qiao Shiyu was cutting vegetables in the kitchen.
She glanced outside and asked calmly, "Are you here?"
Meng Zhaohua answered for Jiang Yanyuan, "I'm here. I'm sorry to bother you again."
Seeing Meng Zhaohua's expression, Qiao Shiyu said, "Why should I be embarrassed? We're friends, and it's only natural for us to get together."
Qiao Shiyu brought the dishes to the table, then felt tired and sat on a chair to rest, breathing lightly.
Jiang Yanyuan looked at Qiao Shiyu, who was sweating slowly on her forehead and looked very tired.
Qiao Shiyu said to Jiang Yanyuan, "Mr. Jiang, I'm going to talk to you tomorrow for something."
He looked at Jiang Yanyuan sharply.
"What?" Jiang Yanyuan asked.
Jiang Yanyuan thought she was going to talk about what happened last night.
Qiao Shiyu walked into her room and took out her ID card from her bag.
"Go to Songshan and modify the rental contract for me." Qiao Shiyu came to the living room and handed her ID card to Jiang Yanyuan.
This was the first time Jiang Yanyuan saw Qiao Shiyu's ID card. She seemed to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, very pretty, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes. Her gaze was clear and seemed to be able to see through everything in the world. This kind of cold-eyed observation was unbearable for most people. It was different from the present Qiao Shiyu, but the difference was not big.
The photo on Qiao Shiyu's ID card is the kind that no one can forget.
It seemed as if it wanted to suck Jiang Yanyuan in.
Jiang Yanyuan took another look at the home address.
"Han Jiayi?" Jiang Yanyuan read it out.
"Yeah. I'm from the countryside. My household registration wasn't transferred out when I went to college." Qiao Shiyu said calmly as she sat there. "My current household registration is still in the countryside."
Qiao Zhengye and Luo Ni set the table.
Meng Zhaohua and Qiao Shiyu sat at opposite ends of the sofa, with Jiang Yanyuan facing Qiao Shiyu.
"Why not bring it up?" Jiang Yanyuan asked.
"Why should we bring it up? Rural people have it so good. Not only am I from the countryside, but in the future, Qiao Lushan or Qiao Weizi's household registration will follow me, and we will both be from the countryside." Qiao Shiyu said, glancing out the window.
Jiang Yanyuan gritted his teeth again until they hurt. She did it on purpose, absolutely on purpose.
Meng Zhaohua was very happy to hear what Qiao Shiyu said. It seemed that Qiao Shiyu was determined to give birth to a child alone and raise it alone. That would be great.
There were a lot of people, but Jiang Yanyuan didn't get angry. He just said, "The contract requires me to have agency permission."
"I know. I've already typed it out. If you like, I'll just sign it. Do you like it?" Qiao Shiyu raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Yanyuan.
"What do you mean." Jiang Yanyuan's eyes were deep, and his voice seemed to come from underground.
Qiao Shiyu stood up again, went to her room, and took out the printed document authorizing Jiang Yanyuan to sign the contract on her behalf.
Below the position where Qiao Shiyu was first represented by an agent was written: Qiao Shiyu.
Jiang Yanyuan wrote on the agent's position: Jiang Yanyuan.
"Okay." Qiao Shiyu asked Jiang Yanyuan to take the paper and her ID card away.
Jiang Yanyuan looked at the names of Qiao Shiyu and Jiang Yanyuan written in the lower right corner of the paper.
I had endless fantasies in my mind.
