After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

But his egg fried rice was delicious, and Qiao Xing ate two big bowls of it in one go.

After the meal, Qin Ce asked the waiter to pack up the big lobster and crab, and left the restaurant with Qiao Xing.

Xing Jiu was still waiting below, deciding whether to go for instant noodles or order takeout later, when he suddenly received Qin Ce's care, and he looked flattered.

"Thank you sir!"

"Let's go, go back."

It was only after eight o'clock, so it was a bit early to go back, and those people were probably not asleep yet.

Qiao Xing became nervous while sitting in the car. She subconsciously grabbed Qin Ce's hand, "I, I'm a little unprepared."

"Don't worry." Qin Ce squeezed her fingers comfortingly, "I have it."

Qiao Xing nodded, feeling the warmth of his palm, and felt a little more at ease.

After arriving at the place, Qiao Xing saw the luxurious villa from a distance, with bright lights inside, and his eyes slowly widened.

This is a Chinese-style courtyard villa. It looks like it only has two floors, but it has several courtyards. Qiao Xing already felt a sense of oppression before entering.

In this capital city where land is at a premium, how much does such a large villa cost?

There was still some distance before the car drove in. Qiao Xing held Qin Ce's hand, her palms becoming sweaty.

"Well, they should all be asleep at this point, right?"

Qin Ce glanced at the building in front of him and said, "It's terrible."

He turned to look at Qiao Xing again, "Don't be afraid, they don't eat people."

Although she said this, her legs were still weak. She had never seen such a luxurious villa in her life. She suddenly thought of her aunt's house and wondered if 50 was enough to pay the electricity bill of their villa for a year.

After getting closer, Qiao Xing felt the magnificence of the building even more. These houses were not very high, only two floors. There was a pool in the yard, and the lights reflected on the water made it sparkle.

"Here we are, young master."

He ran down and opened the door for the two of them. Qiao Xing hesitated in the car for a moment, took a deep breath, and then got the courage to get out of the car.

Qin Ce took the initiative to hold her hand and walked inside.

Qiao Xing whispered, "Is Grandpa asleep?"

"He should go to sleep. It will be the same if we go to see him tomorrow."

"Uh-huh."

Before the two of them entered the door, they heard voices inside, indicating that there were guests.

As soon as he entered, Qiao Xing saw four or five elegant and elegant women sitting in the living room, talking and laughing.

When Qiao Xing came in, they also saw Qiao Xing, with pairs of eyes looking at him, and Qiao Xing had the illusion of being judged.

Wang Yu's smile stiffened for a moment, but it was only for a moment before she quickly stood up and walked towards Qin Ce.

"Xiao Ce, you're back. This is..." Wang Yu pretended not to recognize Qiao Xing. After looking at her face several times, she said with a smile, "Is it Qiao Xing?"

Qiao Xing suppressed her nervousness, smiled at her, and then looked at Qin Ce, because she really didn't know this woman.

Before Qin Ce could speak, Wang Yu took the initiative to introduce herself, "I am Xiao Ce's aunt. Just call me aunt like him."

Qiao Xing hurriedly bowed to her, "Hello, aunt."

"I've heard about you a long time ago. We've always wanted to meet you, and we finally met you this time." Wang Yu smiled amiably. She looked much younger than Joey, and there were very few wrinkles when she smiled.

She held Qiao Xing's hand affectionately, "Are you tired from flying? The same goes for Xiaoce. You didn't even say a word if you were coming. If I had known you were coming, I wouldn't have asked the master to go out. He's still here right now. Haven’t come back yet.”

Qiao Xing only laughed and didn't dare to answer the question at all.

Qin Ce took Qiao Xing in his arms and said to Wang Yu, "She has been traveling all day today. I will take her back to the house first. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, it's been a tiring journey. Go back to the house and have a good rest. Your dad won't be back until very late anyway. Let's meet him early tomorrow morning."

Qin Ce nodded slightly and pulled Qiao Xing upstairs.

Wang Yu watched them go upstairs, and then returned to her seat. She smiled apologetically, "I'm so sorry, this child came suddenly."

Someone asked curiously, "Who was that girl just now?"

"She is Xiaoce's daughter-in-law. She is from Chongqing. They have been married for so long, and this is the first time she has come back. She is so silent. I am really not prepared at all, so you guys are laughing."

"Are you from Yucheng? What do you do at home?"

"Well, I'm not very sure about this. After all, Xiao Ce hasn't brought it back."

Several people were chatting and laughing, trying to find out the details of Qiao Xing. Qiao Xing followed Qin Ce back to the bedroom, and she let out a long sigh of relief.

She hugged Qin Ce, feeling extremely uneasy. Now she wished she could grow a pair of wings and fly back to Chongqing.

Qin Ce rubbed her hair, "It's okay."

Qiao Xing looked up at him, "I feel more and more that we are not from the same world. I..."

She didn't know what to say for a while.

"We are all from Earth, why are we not from the same world? Could it be that you are from Mars?"

Qiao Xing was amused by him. She punched him angrily and said in annoyance, "Let me tell you something serious!"

"Okay, I understand. Once the old man's birthday is over, we will go back to Yucheng and hold on for two more days."

Qiao Xing nodded, hugging him and refusing to let go, as if in this place, only in his arms was the most secure place.

"Would you like to take a bath?"

"Yes, but my clothes seem to be still in the car and haven't been brought up."

Qin Ce took out his mobile phone and said, "I asked Xingjiu to bring it up."

Qiao Xing suddenly remembered something, "Did Xingjiu live here before?"

"No, his father used to live here, and he has been following him ever since."

Qiao Xing was stunned, "Always following grandpa? Why haven't I seen him before?"

But thinking about it, she didn't seem to see him very often. If she hadn't known that Xing Jiu was always following her, she wouldn't have known that there was someone watching her all the time.

"Okay, don't think about that. Take a shower and go to bed first." Qin Ce put away his phone, walked out of the bedroom, and brought her suitcase back in less than 2 minutes.

When she opened the box, she saw that she didn't have two pieces of her own clothes, but only gifts.

"What are you buying these for?"

Qiao Xing touched his nose and said sheepishly, "You can't come empty-handed, right? You were so nervous just now that you forgot to send it out."

Qin Ce squatted on the ground, helped her take out those things and put them on the ground, and found her pajamas.

"Leave it for now, I'll get it to them tomorrow."

"Uh-huh."

Qin Ce handed her the pajamas and said, "Go take a shower."

Qiao Xing took the pajamas and looked at the door over there, which should be the matching bathroom.

She carried her pajamas and went to the bathroom. After entering, she found that the bathroom was larger than their bedroom in Yucheng, and it had floor-to-ceiling windows. She could see the scenery of the yard outside while sitting in the bathtub.
