"Young Master Gu, should we go back to the other courtyard?" Xiao Li asked.

"The other courtyard."

The slap on the face was still aching, and Qiao Xin raised her hand to stroke it, feeling swollen.

One can imagine how much strength Grandpa Gu used in that slap.

Along the way, Gu Jinyan was silent.

Qiao Xin didn't know why he was so interested in going back to the old house all of a sudden, let alone that he would say those words, wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask.

After returning to the other courtyard, Gu Jinyan dragged her upstairs before taking off her shoes.

The housekeeper downstairs saw that the expressions of the two people were not quite right, so he asked the servants to go outside, and told them not to show up here if there was nothing to do, lest Gu Jinyan get angry.

Pulling her back to the room, Qiao Xin thought that Gu Jinyan was going to use force again.

The whole person is far away from Gu Jinyan.

"What are you doing so far away from me? I can still eat you." Gu Jinyan took off his coat and unbuttoned his collar and wrists.

"You come out of the old house with a dark face, and you come upstairs fiercely, who wouldn't be afraid?" Qiao Xin leaned aside and said.

Gu Jinyan, who was unbuttoning, suddenly smiled, but when he saw the slap marks on Qiao Xin's face, he felt extremely uncomfortable again.

Slowly approaching her, raised his hand to caress her cheek, "How stupid you are, obviously you don't have to block this slap."

"I blocked a slap for you, and you owe me." Qiao Xin said boldly, and then whispered, "In case something happens in the future, I can use this as a shield."

"You really think I'm deaf?" Gu Jinyan felt that there were still many sides of Qiao Xin that he hadn't seen.

"I don't know if there is still lunch to eat." Qiao Xin hurriedly changed the subject.

"The face is swollen like this, and I still think about eating." Gu Jinyan walked to the door and asked the housekeeper to bring the first-aid kit.

Then Gu Jinyan took the swelling medicine and wiped it on her.

"Hiss..." Qiao Xin cried out in pain.

"I still know the pain, why didn't I think of the pain when I was slapped." Although Gu Jinyan's mouth was scolding, his eyes were full of pity.

"I can do anything when my brain is hot." Qiao Xin contradicted.

Gu Jinyan's hands became a little stronger, "Be quiet."

After treating the injuries on his face, Gu Jinyan and Qiao Xin walked downstairs.

The housekeeper came forward, and Qiao Xin asked, "Housekeeper, is there any lunch left?"

"I'll let the servants do it now." The butler said respectfully.

Gu Jinyan went to the living room and sat down, and Qiao Xin followed.

"You don't have to go to the company these two days." Gu Jinyan took the magazines on the table and said.

"Why, I didn't do anything wrong."

"My face is swollen like a pig's head. Is it because I want to go out and embarrass me, or I feel that those media have nothing to write about." Gu Jinyan said bluntly.

"It's not that I think so, and it's not thanks to someone."

"You are really getting bolder. I indulged you too much? Let you contradict me." Gu Jinyan raised his eyelids.

"I just followed the slope and said as you said."

"It's good to say that Shunpo is the donkey, you mean I am the donkey?" Gu Jinyan said softly.

"You think so." After a pause, Qiao Xin continued, "Oh, by the way, the company's annual meeting will be in a few days."

"So what do you want to say?" Gu Jinyan asked.

"Can you entrust me with this annual meeting?" Qiao Xin looked at Gu Jinyan expectantly, waiting for his response.

"Leave it to you? Do you want other people to read my jokes and make the headlines the next day, or do you think you have nothing to do?" Gu Jinyan flipped through the magazine.

"How do you know if you don't try?"

"You can leave it to you. If you succeed, you will be rewarded. If you fail, you will be rewarded."

"Okay." Qiao Xin agreed wholeheartedly.

After getting the promise from Gu Jinyan, Qiao Xin was busy preparing for the annual meeting while her face was swollen these days.

Except for other courtyards, I have been running from morning to night to arrange and find a suitable venue.

If it wasn't for Man Ting's company, Qiao Xin would have found it difficult to walk.

Sitting on the chair tiredly, rubbing his sore feet, "It hurts."

Taking off the shoes, I saw that the heels were all rubbed red, and when I touched them, my whole leg hurt.

Man Ting bent down and looked at the scratched places on Qiao Xin's feet, "Miss Qiao, let me go and buy some ointment."

"Yeah." If she didn't apply the ointment, her feet would be useless.

Then sat on a chair and waited for Man Ting.

While waiting, I saw Song Ya walking over with a man, and they were still arm in arm, very intimate and friendly, and there was no assistant to follow.

Qiao Xin thought that she was dazzled, so she got up and walked towards the door. When Song Ya turned her head to talk to that man, she was sure that she was not dazzled.

While surprised, she guessed who the person next to Song Ya was.

"Miss Qiao, what are you looking at?" Man Ting came back from buying the ointment, and saw Qiao Xin standing at the door looking around.

"It's nothing." Afterwards, he applied some ointment to relieve it temporarily.

"Miss Qiao, you'd better go back, your feet can't walk anymore, they're hurt like this." Qiao Xin's feet were already worn down like that.

"It's okay, there are still some things that haven't been done, so I'll go back later." Qiao Xin said, limping to the side.

Keep busy with the unfinished work at hand.

It's just that she looked a little absent-minded, and the back of Song Ya and that man always appeared in her mind.

"Miss Qiao, are you tired?"

"what?"

"Your copy is reversed." Man Ting reminded.

Qiao Xin turned over the copy in her hand, and saw that there were not many things to be busy, "Let's go back now, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

On the way back, Qiao Xin intertwined her hands on her lap, wondering if she should tell Gu Jinyan about this matter.

Said, as if she was talking about other people's affairs, if she didn't say it, she felt uncomfortable hiding it in her heart, but Qiao Xin didn't know who that man was at all.

Even if it is said, Gu Jinyan also feels that it is a non-existent thing, so it is better not to say anything.

It was still early after returning to the other courtyard, Gu Jinyan hadn't come back yet, Qiao Xin didn't want to go upstairs, so she turned and walked into Coke's room.

Sitting next to Coke's nest, Coke wagged his tail and looked very happy

Qiao Xin patted Coke on the head, talking about the unhappiness and coke that he had been busy with for the past two days.

Then he told Coke's ear what he saw Song Ya today.

Unfortunately, when Gu Jinyan came back, he heard Qiao Xin's words in front of Coke's room, and stopped in place.

Qiao Xin in the room patted Cole on the head, "Cole, do you think I should tell him, I'm really conflicted."

"What are you struggling with?" Gu Jinyan opened the door and walked in as if nothing had happened, Qiao Xin was taken aback.

"No, it's nothing. Why did you come back suddenly?" Qiao Xin looked at Gu Jinyan in a panic.

"There's nothing wrong with the company, what did you say just now?" Gu Jinyan asked knowingly.

"Tangled, tangled..." Qiao Xin couldn't think of it for a while.

"Why, it's hard to tell?"

"No, it's about the details of the annual meeting." Qiao Xin could only change the topic to the annual meeting.

"Yes." Gu Jinyan responded, "I have something to ask you about the annual meeting, so come out."
