Qiao Xiangrong frowned when he saw Tang Yuxiu sitting opposite him.
How did Sheng Ting end up with Tang Yuxiu?
Doesn't she know that Tang Yuxiu has a terrible reputation?
wrong.
Shouldn't Sheng Ting be at the Qiao family's house? How come she's here?
The thought of Sheng Ting running off to have dinner with another man made Qiao Xiangrong's expression turn somewhat unpleasant.
Who is Tang Yuxiu? He has seen countless people and could tell at a glance that Sheng Ting and Qiao Xiangrong's relationship was unusual, especially since Qiao Xiangrong's gaze was too obvious and direct.
"I ran into this woman on the road and almost hit her, so I forced her to come here for a meal as an apology. I didn't expect you two to know each other." Tang Yuxiu, who was of the same generation as Qiao's father, stood up and simply nodded slightly without making any further moves.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiangrong breathed a sigh of relief.
So that's how it is.
Even so, seeing Sheng Ting sitting alone with a man still made me feel a little uncomfortable.
"Uncle Tang Qi".
In terms of seniority, Qiao Xiangrong should call Tang Yuxiu "Seventh Uncle".
Tang Yuxiu nodded slightly: "Since you know each other, sit down and eat together."
“We have some things to take care of over there, so we won’t keep you any longer,” Mr. Qiao waved his hand, gave Qiao Xiangrong a wink, and then turned and left.
The father and son showed absolutely no respect for Tang Yuxiu.
"Tingting, let's go." Qiao Xiangrong led Sheng Ting away.
Sheng Ting turned around and gave Tang Yuxiu an apologetic smile, then quickly caught up with Qiao Xiangrong.
Watching Sheng Ting follow behind Qiao Xiangrong, Tang Yuxiu shook his head and continued eating his meal.
Outside.
Mr. Qiao asked Qiao Xiangrong to take Sheng Ting back, and he went over first.
Qiao Xiangrong said, "Dad, wait a moment. I'll have the driver take her home, and then we'll go together."
Mr. Qiao glanced at Sheng Ting, then got into the car and waited for Qiao Xiangrong.
"Weren't you at the Qiao family's? Why are you out here?"
When Qiao Xiangrong asked this question, Sheng Ting was taken aback.
Qiao Xiangrong knew nothing at all; it must have been a lie made up by that woman Zhao Rong.
but.
Sheng Ting still tentatively asked, "Mrs. Qiao said you secretly went on a blind date with your father, and it was arranged by Mrs. Qiao's family."
Qiao Xiangrong frowned: "What nonsense are you talking about? We're on business. Don't believe this kind of nonsense in the future. Since you're out, let's go back first. We'll go back to the Qiao family another day. My dad will be there then, and he can treat you better."
Hearing his explanation, Sheng Ting felt a warmth in her heart and said, "Then you should go quickly, your uncle is already waiting."
If Qiao Xiangrong has already said no, then it must not be.
Sheng Ting felt that Qiao Xiangrong wouldn't lie to her.
Qiao Xiangrong had the driver take Sheng Ting back to the clothing store, while he himself left in the car.
Mr. Qiao glanced behind him and said, "Is that your cousin, Sheng Qian?"
“Yes,” Qiao Xiangrong nodded.
"You should try to get to know the Long family better," Qiao's father reminded Qiao Xiangrong.
Qiao Xiangrong said, "Dad, Sheng Qian cares a lot about her cousin. I also learned from Sheng Ting that Sheng Qian and Long Yunting's relationship is getting better and better."
Mr. Qiao said, "Since that's the case, bring Sheng Ting home again."
"good!"

When Sheng Ting returned to the clothing store, she realized she hadn't eaten lunch and was so hungry that she quickly went into the kitchen to cook something.
"Xiaoting, didn't you go to the Qiao family? Why are you back so soon?" Liu Hongfang and the others all knew that Shengting had gone to the Qiao family.
Sheng Ting said, "Brother Qiao had some urgent business to attend to, so I didn't dare to delay him and asked to come back first."
"He must be really busy."
"It's not wrong for men to be busy with their careers, Xiaoting, you should be more understanding."
Sheng Ting smiled and said, "I know, Brother Qiao said he'll take me to the Qiao family again next time."
"So, it seems your good news is just around the corner!" the group teased with smiles.
Sheng Ting blushed. "It's still early."
Sheng Qian stayed at the factory until evening before returning, where she happened to run into Zhou Ran outside.
"You're back so late?" Zhou Ran asked, dragging his weary body back. He saw that Sheng Qian had just returned as well.
Sheng Qian said, "I'll be this busy for a while now. Have you taken care of things on your end?"
Zhou Ran shook his head: "The branch store business needs to be done, and two events need to be organized. I'm exhausted both physically and mentally lately. You have to give me a raise, otherwise I can't keep up with this person."
Sheng Qian smiled and said, "Okay, name your price."
Thirty thousand!
"..."
Zhou Ran chuckled and said, "Just kidding."
"Your salary should go up once the new store opens."
"Wow! Boss, you're so great, I love you so much!" Zhou Ran grinned and leaned in to kiss Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian pushed her away, "I'm a respectable person."
"Come on, don't think I don't know you and your husband are inseparable these days." Zhou Ran winked. "How's it going in that area?"
Such explicit words would have made anyone else blush.
Sheng Qian rolled her eyes at her, "Haven't you heard the rumors outside?"
Zhou Ran was embarrassed. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay, he doesn't mind."
Zhou Ran's expression was complicated as he asked, "And you, don't you mind living like a widow?"
"This condition is treatable."
"..." Zhou Ran felt that his embarrassment and worry just now were unnecessary.
Who is Sheng Qian? She's a formidable character!
What is a mere hidden illness? Sheng Qian's own happiness, would she just give up like that?
Of course not.
