Emperor Shao's exclusive sweet wife

As the engagement day between Chu Junbei and Qiao Ran got closer, Pei Xianglin became more and more restless.

No, she had to find a way to prevent their engagement.

But how to stop it?In this matter, Pei Xianglin was in trouble.

Her first choice is naturally Xie Ruiyu, after all, Xie Ruiyu is almost obedient to her, as long as she says a few words, Xie Ruiyu should do what she says.

But recently, Xie Ruiyu has been watched too closely by Xie Ruihan, and there may be mistakes, and Xie Ruiyu seems to have more trust in Qiao Ran.

So she ruled out Xie Ruiyu.

After searching several times in the phone's address book, Pei Xianglin finally found someone who might be used by her.

Xu Chengxiang.

She could see that Xu Chengxiang's thoughts towards Qiao Ran were not that simple.

But if you like someone, you can't watch her with another person willingly, and don't care.

Pei Xianglin thought so.

So she asked Xu Chengxiang to meet, and said that she wanted to tell Xu Chengxiang something about Qiao Ran, and Xu Chengxiang also came.

Pei Xianglin was originally determined to win, especially after a few words to confirm that Xu Chengxiang's evaluation of Qiao Ran was indeed very high.

After sitting for a long time, seeing that Pei Xianglin didn't explain why he came, Xu Chengxiang gradually lost his patience and asked, "Miss Pei, what is your purpose here?"

"Actually, it's nothing." Pei Xianglin slowly stirred the coffee in front of her, while observing Xu Chengxiang's facial expressions with her eyes.

She didn't want to miss any trace of emotion on Xu Chengxiang's face.

Then, she opened and closed her lips, which were painted with bright lipstick, and asked casually: "By the way, Qiao Ran and Chu Junbei are getting engaged soon, do you know about this?"

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Pei Xianglin saw that the movements of Xu Chengxiang's hands paused slightly.

But it was only for a while, and soon Xu Chengxiang asked: "Why did Miss Pei tell me this?"

"Nothing, I just want to ask Mr. Xu some questions." Pei Xianglin laughed.

Xu Chengxiang seemed a little impatient, but he still tried his best to restrain himself and asked patiently, "What's the matter?"

"It's just..." Pei Xianglin took a sip of coffee, and the smile on her face deepened, "Mr. Xu has been a classmate with Qiao Ran for so long, so he should know Qiao Ran a little bit, right? So I want to ask Mr. Xu, What kind of gift does Qiao Ran like?"

She spoke very sincerely, as if she was sincerely wishing Qiao Ran and Chu Junbei, "After all, I am Qiao Ran's cousin. She is engaged and I will definitely give a gift, but I am afraid that the gift will not meet her wishes."

Hearing this, Xu Chengxiang smiled.

He really laughed, and before he could hold back, he laughed out loud.

He looked at Pei Xianglin and asked her, "Miss Pei herself said that you are Qiao Ran's cousin. If that's the case, don't you know what Qiao Ran likes?"

Xu Chengxiang leaned back on the chair, and continued: "Qiao Ran and I are simply classmates, but Miss Pei and Qiao Ran live together and are cousins. Isn't it a little strange to ask me such a question?" suitable?"

The smile on Pei Xianglin's face faded slightly.

She used to think that Xu Chengxiang was difficult to deal with, but now it seems that she is so.

He wasn't fooled at all, not only was he not affected by her words, but he also took her into the army.

But Pei Xianglin is not easy, she quickly recovered her smile, and she was very reasonable: "Didn't I want to give Qiao Ran a surprise? And you know, she hasn't been back to Pei's house for a long time, so I don't think so. Her understanding is actually very limited, and I'm afraid that giving a gift won't reach her heart."

Xu Chengxiang put down the coffee cup, reached out and called the waiter over.

After paying for two cups of coffee, Xu Chengxiang stood up and said, "Sorry, Miss Pei, there is nothing I can do about it."

Then he just left the cafe.

Pei Xianglin originally wanted to stimulate Xu Chengxiang to do something crazy, preferably to destroy Qiao Ran's engagement.

But I didn't expect Xu Chengxiang to be so calm, and he hardly showed any flaws.

Xu Chengxiang can't do it either, so who else?
Pei Xianglin thought about it in her mind, but she couldn't find that person.

Finally, Pei Xianglin came up with an idea.

Xu Chengxiang just looked impeccable in front of Pei Xianglin, but he didn't really care about Qiao Ran's engagement.

He likes Qiao Ran, and Qiao Ran is getting engaged, how could he not care so much?
The reason why he didn't show it in front of Pei Xianglin was because he was afraid of being seen by Pei Xianglin and found an opportunity to take advantage of it. After all, Pei Xianglin was not friendly to Qiao Ran.

After getting into the car, Xu Chengxiang hesitated for a while, and finally took out his mobile phone and called Qiao Ran.

The call was connected quickly, and Qiao Ran asked, "Chengxiang, what's the matter? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." Xu Chengxiang responded with a low tone, "I heard that you and President Chu are getting engaged soon? Congratulations."

"Yes, soon." Qiao Ran's voice was full of happiness and sweetness, "By the way, Chengxiang, you must come then, I have prepared an invitation for you."

Xu Chengxiang was a little surprised, "Me too?"

"Yes." Qiao Ran said with a smile, "Many classmates have them."

The joy that was rising just now fell back to the bottom of my heart in an instant, and Xu Chengxiang's back was bent.

At first, he thought that he was somewhat special in Qiao Ran's heart, but it turned out that he was overthinking.

In Qiao Ran's view, he was no different from other students.

He will not only prepare invitations for him alone, but many people have them.

To Qiao Ran, he was just one of the "many".

But thinking about it carefully, there doesn't seem to be any problem with this, after all... The person Qiao Ran loves is Chu Junbei, and they are almost engaged.

What are you thinking about?Didn't she already know Qiao Ran's intentions?Didn't he think about it a long time ago... Didn't he tell Qiao Ran silently in his heart?
It is enough to be her friend and have a place in her heart, so why care so much?Why bother so much?
Even if that place is small and crowded with many people.

That's enough.

At least Qiao Ran still remembered him and didn't forget him.

Thinking of this, Xu Chengxiang said again: "Congratulations."

"Well, thank you." Qiao Ran's voice was even lower, joyful and shy.

Fearing that he would reveal other emotions if he said too much, Xu Chengxiang hung up the phone.

Throwing the mobile phone on the console, he looked at the crowd walking on the street, at the men, women, old and children walking in the crowd, and let out a long sigh of relief.

That's enough, don't be too demanding, this is... pretty good.

He closed his eyes forcefully.

Everything was almost ready. The engagement ceremony was on Sunday, and the dresses of Qiao Ran and Chu Junbei were delivered to their respective homes, waiting to be worn by them on the day of the engagement, becoming the enviable hero and heroine.

Qiao Ran originally chose an off-the-shoulder dress, but Chu Junbei said it was too cold, so she changed it to a sleeveless one, and she also agreed.

Qiao Ran had a big class on Thursday and went to school.

At that time, Xu Chengxiang was surprised to see her. The two sat together. During class, Xu Chengxiang kept looking at Qiao Ran.

However, Qiao Ran was concentrating on listening to the teacher's lecture at that time, so she didn't notice the eyes of the people around her.

After class, Qiao Ran originally wanted to go back directly, but today Chu Junbei had an important meeting and couldn't leave, so she planned to take a taxi.

However, as soon as the talent came out of the classroom, Qiao Ran was stopped by Xu Chengxiang.

Holding the book in her hand, she turned to look at Xu Chengxiang and asked, "What's wrong?"

Maybe it's because she's getting engaged and she's in a good mood, so the smile on Qiao Ran's face hasn't stopped since get out of class is over.

Seeing it, Xu Chengxiang felt relieved and bitter at the same time.

Drooping his eyes, Xu Chengxiang said, "I have received your invitation card. I will definitely go there when the time comes, and I will prepare a very good engagement gift for you and Mr. Chu."

Talking about the engagement, Qiao Ran became happier, and the smile on her face became bigger, "Thank you, Chengxiang."

The two walked towards the school gate while talking.

After leaving the school, seeing Qiao Ran looking left and right, Xu Chengxiang asked, "Is Mr. Chu here to pick you up today? But he doesn't seem to be here yet."

"No, Junbei has something to do today, so I can't come. I'll take a taxi myself." Qiao Ran said, just in time to see an empty car approaching not far away, just as he raised his hand, Xu Chengxiang stopped him.

"No, I'll take you back, I'm fine anyway."

Qiao Ran thought that everyone was so familiar, so she didn't refuse, and walked to the parking lot with Xu Chengxiang.

After walking a few steps, Qiao Ran suddenly felt something was wrong, and looked back.

Hearing her footsteps stopped, Xu Chengxiang also stopped, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Qiao Ran followed and smiled apologetically.

She felt as if someone had been following her since she came out of school, but when she looked back, there was no one at all.

Maybe it was my own illusion, or maybe it was the psychological shadow left by the incident in Pingcheng last time, so I felt that someone was following her.

Just when Qiao Ran was comforting herself, Xu Chengxiang suddenly said, "Qiao Ran, do you remember when we were in the mall when school just started, and you were almost hit by someone on the escalator?"

It was originally a trivial matter, but after that time, Qiao Ran didn't dare to take the escalator, so it left a deep impression on her.

Now that Xu Chengxiang mentioned it again, Qiao Ran said gratefully: "Remember, I was lucky to have you there, otherwise I might have fallen off the escalator."

Xu Chengxiang was silent for a moment, "Actually, I suspect that someone deliberately arranged that incident."

Qiao Ran paused, her eyes widened a lot, staring at the person in front of her.

It happened that Xu Chengxiang was already in front of the car at this time, he opened the passenger's door, and only got into the driver's seat after Qiao Ran got up.

After fastening the seat belt, Xu Chengxiang continued what he said just now: "I didn't take it seriously at the time, but then you had a car accident in Pingcheng. After I heard the news, I couldn't help but think of the shopping mall. I always felt scared. .”

Although he doesn't remember the face of the person who bumped into Qiao Ran that day, he does remember the look in his eyes.

There was a fierce light in the man's eyes.

It's just that Xu Chengxiang's attention was all on Qiao Ran at the time, so he ignored it for the time being and didn't catch that person on the spot.
