Chapter 98 The Beloved Little Cousin 15
Having her thoughts seen through, Nan Qiao pursed her lips and smiled at her cousin a little embarrassedly.
Xu Mu smiled slightly. Having been with Qiao Qiao for such a long time, he also understood her personality.
She actually didn't want to say much about other people's lives, but as an innocent little girl, she had a relatively pure empathy.
The girl, no longer thinking about anything else, quickly perked up. Even though she stayed obediently beside her cousins, her glasses involuntarily looked towards the boxes on both sides.
There was a private room every few meters. Most of the rooms had their doors closed, and it was difficult to see what was inside. However, a few rooms were open. Nan Qiao took a quick look and heard music coming from inside, mixed with the laughter of men and women, creating a festive atmosphere.
The isolation here should be good, as no sound can be heard from most of the private rooms with their doors closed.
As she walked and looked, Xu Shijing in front of her stopped. The girl came to her senses and found that they had also stopped in a private room.
The door was tightly closed, and Xu Shijing reached out to open it.
As soon as the door opened, the sound of small fireworks exploding came over. At this time, the door of the box was wide open and the scene inside was almost visible.
The private room, which can be used to entertain the wealthy and powerful second generation, is also well decorated, with luxurious and soft carpets, comfortable sofas, warm yellow crystal chandeliers, and antique shelves filled with various decorative items. The entire room is approximately 100 meters in size.
At this time, there were people sitting on the large sofas and carpets in the private room. They were wearing bright clothes and had very happy faces. They were having a great time. When they saw that the people who opened the door were the young masters of the Xu family, they were all surprised.
Xu Huizhou frowned as he looked at the environment in the private room and the thick smell of cigarettes and alcohol that had not yet dissipated.
Seeing him frown, the second-generations in the box panicked a little. Everyone knew that the young masters of the Xu family were very picky and had extremely high requirements for the places where they played.
Although they were in the same circle, it was not easy for the second generation like them to meet so many young masters of the Xu family at the same time.
The host of this game, Li Kun, the young master of the Li family, quickly recovered and stood up to greet him.
"Shi Jing, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? You came just in time. It's my birthday, and I just organized a party, so I invited everyone to come and play."
Xu Shijing let the other person pat his shoulder, glanced at the situation in the box, and said with a faint smile: "I came back a few days ago. I saw you said your birthday in the group chat, so I came to join in the fun."
"That's great. You usually only come back at the end of the year, and you didn't come out much last year. It would be nice to get together with everyone now."
While saying this, Li Kun turned around to look at the private room, and then continued: "I have booked this room for almost a day, and it smells bad. I will ask someone to book another one."
Xu Shijing's brows relaxed. "I'm sorry to bother you, A-Kun. I don't really care about these things. It's just that I brought my younger brothers and sisters here today, so I have to be more careful."
"What's the trouble? It's just a matter of a word." Li Kun waved his hand nonchalantly, then asked in confusion, as if remembering something: "Your sister?"
When did Xu Shijing have a younger sister?
He knew that the second wife of the Xu family was in love. Now that the third child policy has been introduced, they would not have a third child when they are over a hundred years old, right?
Besides, didn't he only bring a few young masters from the Xu family? Was there also a younger sister there?
Could it be Xu Mengran?
It’s not Li Kun’s fault that he was blind. The lights in the box were dim, and the girl was always staying in a circle surrounded by several cousins, so everyone only noticed the four tall boys.
Xu Shijing turned slightly to reveal Nan Qiao who had been standing behind him, and said with a smile, "My cousin Qiao Qiao."
Cousin Jojo?
Nan Qiao?
Li Kun was slightly startled, his eyes widened, and then he looked at the girl with an incredulous and extremely passionate look.
The girl was wearing a mask and her face could not be seen clearly, but her eyes were particularly clear under the dim light. When she saw him looking over, her eyes formed crescents and she seemed to be smiling.
"Hello, I'm Nan Qiao."
A soft female voice sounded in the box. Li Kun lost his mind. When he heard her voice, his feet stumbled and he almost fell to the ground.
He quickly regained his composure, a blush appearing on his face as he nervously said, "Hello, Cousin Qiao... Cousin Qiao, I'm Li Kun, a friend of your cousin Shi Jing."
Li Kun's family also received the invitation at that time, and he also went to the girl's birthday party. After seeing the appearance of the cousin from the Xu family, he was simply shocked.
They just unilaterally worship her as a goddess.
How could I not be excited when I saw the goddess I had been thinking about day and night?
Seeing his excited expression, Xu Huizhou said impatiently: "Let's open a private room first. This room smells too much of cigarettes and alcohol."
Li Kun came back to his senses, responded attentively, and quickly ran out of the box, intending to ask the waiter to change boxes.
Xu Huizhou looked back at the scene in the box a few more times, turned his head away with some unbearable feeling, and really didn't want Nan Qiao to stay in such a place.
Xu Shijing glanced at his watch, noticed his unbearable expression, and soothed him: "Don't worry, we will leave soon, just wait a little longer."
Xu Mu raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xu Shijing, who seemed to be keeping something in suspense, as if thinking about something.
"He should have taken care of it. Let's go over there now."
Xu Shijing smiled and led several brothers and sisters out of the box, walking slowly along the corridor.
Suddenly, the door of a private room was opened, and a man with a strong smell of alcohol walked out slowly from the room. The man's handsome face was flushed, and he walked unsteadily, obviously drunk. There was a girl in revealing clothes beside him, clinging to the man's arm tightly.
Nan Qiao paused slightly, looking slightly stunned.
This man, how does he look?
...It seems to be Xue Hao?
Obviously Xu Huizhou and the others also recognized that the drunk man was Xue Hao.
Xu Li's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickly covered the eyes of the girl beside him. He walked forward with the girl and said softly, "Qiao Qiao, stop looking."
Nan Qiao was not curious about these things, so she did not resist and followed Xu Li across the box. Only after they had completely passed the box did Xu Li let go of his hands that were covering his body.
Nan Qiao blinked, a little confused: "That one just now, seemed to be Xue Hao?"
Xu Li nodded affirmatively: "It is indeed him."
Xu Mu smiled: "Xue Hao is a frequent visitor to the Youling Club, so it's not surprising to see him here."
Nan Qiao hesitated a little: "Should we notify his family?"
It's probably not safe to get so drunk in such an occasion.
Xu Shijing shook his head and said slowly: "No need, doesn't he have a female companion by his side? She will definitely accompany him tonight, Qiao Qiao don't have to worry."
As he walked, he shook his head and sighed, "These people's private lives are really getting more and more chaotic nowadays."
"Qiao Qiao is almost an adult, so it's good for her to come out and have a look. If she wants to find a boyfriend in the future, she can't find someone like this."
Nan Qiao felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this. She was still a high school student and had never thought about these things.
But she also knew that her second cousin was doing this for her own good, so she nodded seriously.
Seeing that she had indeed listened, Xu Shijing nodded with satisfaction. After all, the human heart was unpredictable, and no matter how much protection the Xu family offered, it would never be better than what he knew.
This cousin was as beautiful as a shining pearl. If it weren't for the blood relationship, he would have been moved, let alone others.
After she grows up, her cousin may meet more different kinds of people, so they can't just protect her blindly at this time.
Moreover, there are not only philandering men in this world, but also men who know how to pretend. They can pretend to be gentle and kind, but they can also be deceiving.
Xu Shijing was thinking to himself, his cousin's coming-of-age ceremony was coming up soon, should he make a collection of "Second Generation Scumbags in the Circle" as a birthday present for his cousin?

Xue Hao, who was drunk, woke up and found himself back home. He rubbed his sore solar plexus and picked up the phone on the bedside table and turned it on.
The phone lit up, and the screen showed a photo of a bright and beautiful girl.
The girl has her back to the deep sea, her hair flying in the sea breeze, the corners of her mouth raised, her eyes like crescent moons, beautiful and bright, dancing gracefully.
This is the only picture he took himself.
Xue Hao looked at the picture on his phone, his fingers unconsciously rubbing the girl's skin in the picture, but the gloom in his eyes became heavier.
After unlocking the screen, the beautiful and bright girl on the screen quickly disappeared, as if she was mischievously beautiful and clever, which made people feel suddenly enlightened.
I opened my social account and sure enough, the social application that I had submitted several times was still not approved.
Xue Hao's eyes darkened. He exited the page, stood up, packed up, and prepared to go to the company.

Xu Congnan got off the plane at around five in the morning and went straight back to his old house.
The old house was quiet in the early morning. Even the servants had not gotten up to work yet, and the house was dark.
Xu Congnan carried the suitcase back to the room, washed up, hesitated for a moment, and then went up to the fourth floor.
He turned the doorknob, and it stopped rotating completely until it could not be turned any further. Only then did he feel relieved and went back to his room.
*
"Cousin! You're back."
The girl who came downstairs saw the man sitting on the sofa and was delighted and shouted loudly.
Xu Congnan was looking at the computer. Upon hearing this, he tilted his head and chuckled, "Yeah, you're back."
He looked carefully at the girl he hadn't seen for a few days. Seeing that her eyes were full of smiles, her cheeks were rosy, and she was in good spirits, he felt satisfied.
"Let's go to breakfast first."
From a health perspective, it is best to have breakfast between 7 and 9 o'clock, and it is already 8:30.
"Well, good! Have you eaten yet, cousin?"
Xu Congnan: “Not yet.”
Nan Qiao said without hesitation: "Then come and eat with me."
Together.
Xu Congnan murmured these two words, a faint smile filled his eyes, and he stood up and walked towards the restaurant.
"Okay, let's go eat together."
Breakfast was quickly served, and Nan Qiao devoured it with undivided attention. Xu Congnan, on the other hand, only sipped his millet porridge. For the rest of the day, he watched the girl attentively enjoying her breakfast, a sigh in his eyes.
The little girl he had raised with great care for a year was about to grow up.
