Xiao has thought about it for a long time

She just wanted to sleep, but the other party wanted to toss it. It was like a tug-of-war between you and me all night, but in the end she prevailed.

But Fu Bei's next behavior was a bit out of bounds, but not too much.Josie lay lazily, neither responding nor refusing. When she felt comfortable, she would hug the other person's back, like hanging a candy in front of Fu Bei. When she was in a good mood, let this person Taste it.

The approach is too fickle, and I don't know who is tossing whom.

Fu Bei knew what she was thinking, so he didn't delve too deeply into it. He hugged her in his arms, stroked her thin lips against her temples, and said softly, "I'm going on a business trip in two days, and I'm going to S city for an exchange seminar."

Josie responded indifferently: "Yes."

She really doesn't care at all, maybe it's annoying, wrapping her body sideways tightly in a thin quilt, she almost covered her head with the quilt to show her impatience, she enjoys Fu Bei's service, but she doesn't want to do anything, she has no energy He just lay limp, not even bothering to lift his eyelids.

It was late at night, the window was dark and thick, and the house was quiet. Fu Bei only hugged her, held on to her hand, and stroked it carefully, which was rare and tender.Josie felt itchy, so she took the opportunity to pull her hand away, and bowed her waist to prevent this person from sticking to it. After a while, her cool hand touched the hibiscus flower pattern on the back of her waist, gently and vaguely, as if caressing with petals.

After being disturbed for a moment, she lost all drowsiness, but Josie still pretended not to feel it, as motionless as a mountain.

The cool touch gradually changed, reaching the bottom of the flower branch, and after a while, it went down again...

The moon in the sky appeared from the thick clouds, and the watery moonlight fell to the window and leaked into the bed. She kept her eyes closed and put her hands on the soft pillow.

Fu Bei came over and said in a low voice, as if whispering intimately, "Josh..."

But Josie didn't make a sound, didn't say a word.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was quiet, she fell asleep not long after, and vaguely felt that the man was hugging her from behind, and seemed to say something, but she didn't hear clearly.

That night, Josie slept soundly. Fu Bei left at dawn. There were more than a dozen missed calls on the phone, all of which were from Liang Yuzhi and Dad Fu.During the daytime, Qijing Street is bustling with traffic and pedestrians, the sun climbs out from the tall buildings in the east, and the fog that enveloped Jiangcheng gradually dissipates.

For the next two days, everything returned to normal.

Fu Bei really went on a business trip, and he was gone for a few days.

Josie went back to the compound, just in time for Zhou Meihe to be at home, and when dinner was approaching, Zhou Meihe almost showed dissatisfaction on her face, it seemed that she was dissatisfied with her coming home at this time, to be precise, Qiao Jianliang wanted to I went home for dinner, and I didn't want the father and daughter to meet each other.

She originally planned to take her things and leave, but when she saw Zhou Meihe throwing a face, she deliberately found trouble, so she didn't leave at all, and stayed for dinner.

Zhou Meihe could hardly maintain her expression, she asked with a half smile, "I'm so free today, isn't the store busy?"

Josie replied deliberately: "I'm not busy every day, come back to accompany my dad when I have time."

The smile on Zhou Meihe's face was almost cracked, but it was not easy to explode in front of the maids and aunts, so she had to pretend to be kind and considerate.It happened to be the weekend, and Brother Cheap was also at home. He didn't seem to welcome Josie back very much, and he didn't even have a smile on his face.

The family's helpers have already changed several batches. The new auntie doesn't know Josie, but she knows that Qiao Jianliang has a biological daughter, and the son in the family is a stepson. Everyone is very smooth in speaking and doing things, trying to be neutral and not offend anyone.

But Zhou Meihe was so angry that she couldn't bear it.

It is always a small number of people who will treat their stepson and stepdaughter as their own children. They will not feel sorry for the flesh that falls off their bodies, and their hearts are biased. Zhou Meihe is like this, and Qiao Jianliang is also like this.Today's Qiao family has no feelings for each other, and it is even more difficult to get along with each other in front of the rich and rich family property. It is impossible to be as close as a family.

Josie didn't expect to get along well with the mother and son, and stayed in her room until dinner.Her room is still the same one. Only she and Qiao Jianliang have the key. The interior is still the original layout, and it will be cleaned regularly. The interior is clean. From the window, you can see the Fu family opposite.

Without the old lady, Fu's house is even colder than Qiao's house. There is no smell of smoke and fire. Even if people pass by in the yard from time to time, there is no trace of life, like a cage that wants to eat people.

Qiao Jianliang didn't get home until almost seven o'clock. Seeing that Josie was there, he was so happy from ear to ear. The difference between how he treated Josie and Zhou Lin was huge.

Zhou Meihe didn't have a fit on her face, but she couldn't help but her face darkened a few times. She was quite calm, she smiled and picked up food for Qiao Jianliang, and asked Josie softly, "Do you want to stay at home for a few days? You, aren't you more free, stay at home for a few days to rest, just as your younger brother is on vacation, you two can get together, or go out to play."

The words are so sweet that she has regarded herself as the hostess of Qiao's family both openly and secretly.

If she was really pure and kind, Josie would definitely not look for trouble, but she just picked up the chopsticks. Josie didn't give any face and said, "I haven't reported Zhou Lin to two shifts for so long during the summer vacation." Well, I remember the international class that Zhou Lin studied in, and it's time to apply for university next year, have you found a school yet?"

Zhou Lin’s school is also Jiangcheng International. The international class is naturally the group that wants to study abroad, but those who can go abroad are not necessarily top students. Zhou Lin’s grades are not much better than Josie’s back then. It’s just that Josie chose to study abroad. Just stay at home and study.

Studying abroad was spent on Qiao's family's money, and if the grades were not outstanding, it couldn't be solved with hundreds of thousands of dollars. If Zhou Meihe didn't talk well, Josie would catch the couple's pain.

If not, Zhou Lin's expression changed instantly.

It was difficult for Qiao Jianliang to be caught in the middle. After a long while, he still looked at Josie disapprovingly, and said, "Eat first, we'll talk after eating."

Only then did Zhou Meihe's complexion improve.

Josie ate her own food, and Qiao Jianliang brought the bowl to pick up the vegetables.

Zhou Lin suddenly mentioned that he had participated in a provincial competition a while ago and won an award.

In fact, it was a team competition, and he didn't have much credit for it. It all depended on Zhou Meihe to find connections to get in. Zhou Meihe is a teacher, with a wide network of connections, so it was an easy task.

Qiao Jianliang liked to listen to such a dignified matter, and even boasted a few words with a smile, "Read it well, and work harder when you go abroad next year to strive for a higher level."

"I will definitely not let you down." Zhou Lin said, with a cute and sincere attitude, he continued to talk about his studies, and casually mentioned that Qiao Jianliang had given him a reward.

Josie put a shrimp into the bowl and felt her throat was a little choked, so she made herself a bowl of soup.

There is an open-top Bugatti Veyron sports car parked in the garage of Qiao's family. The bright and trendy model is neither suitable for Qiao Jianliang nor Zhou Meihe, the people's teacher. It is obvious who to buy it for.Josie had seen it long ago, but just pretended not to see it.

Zhou Lin is not yet eighteen this year, and he doesn't even have a driver's license, so it's too early to buy him a sports car.

Josie still didn't stay at home, Zhou Meihe pretended to stay and said nice things, she turned her head to look, and replied obediently: "Then when I'm free later, I'll come back and stay for half a month."

Zhou Meihe was taken aback for a moment, but Qiao Jianliang was cheerful.

"Okay, it's fine if you come back to live, and someone will take care of you at home." Qiao Jianliang said, and personally sent her to the car.

The mother and son surnamed Zhou were quite acquainted, so they didn't follow out, leaving space for the father and daughter to be alone.

"I'm leaving, you go back." Opening the car door, Josie looked back.

Qiao Jianliang is not blind, he has already noticed the undercurrents at the dinner table, but it is not easy to tell at home, he was embarrassed to use his mouth, and finally stopped Josie, helplessly said: "Don't take it to heart."

Divorced families are basically like this. Both mother and father will form a new family, and there will be one left after all.Josie bent over the car, started the car, looked at him, and said calmly, "No, how could it be."

Qiao Jianliang hesitated to speak, and said for a moment, "The company has a lot of things to do recently, so I'll visit you when I'm free."

Josie hummed and drove away from here.

From the compound to Qijing Street, the road is mostly empty, with few people and cars, and it is empty.

There was a wind at night, and her hair was messed up when she got out of the car. She folded her arms and walked upstairs.After nine o'clock, most of the houses in the community were lit up. Some families went for a walk together, and some watched TV and chatted at home. They were all lively and warm.

The long street is brightly lit, bright as day.
