Prodigal son

It was the first time for An Jincheng to truly see how terrifying Qiao Chen was. In terms of age, he was only six or seven years younger than Qiao Chen, but now Qiao Chen was only looking at him, so he couldn't say a word.

Qiao Chen's love for his younger brother Qiao Jingan was a recent miracle in the whole circle. Now that he knew that he had fought with Qiao Jingan, it was his luck that he didn't do anything to him.

Seeing this, An Jinlin remembered that Xiaocheng came home in a mess not long ago. Could it be that he and Qiao Ershao made a move?Thinking of this, An Jinlin was startled, and hurriedly said, "Xiaocheng is ignorant, please don't blame Mr. Qiao."

Qiao Chen sneered in his heart, if Xiao An hadn't been injured, how could you two sisters and brothers of the An family have the opportunity to sit in this place, but there was a smile on his face, "Where, young people are always a little grumpy, as long as you don't provoke It doesn't matter what happens."

An Jinlin is not stupid, Qiao Chen's intention was to leave this matter alone, and of course she would not continue to talk about it, and changed the subject, and started talking about her previous college life.

An Jinlin's purpose is very clear to Qiao Chen. If it is a woman, he admires Lin Qian more. Although she does not have the aristocratic temperament of An Jinlin, she has the strength and ability that many men do not have.Although Lin Qian betrayed the relationship between them, it did not affect her appreciation for her. It had nothing to do with the relationship between a man and a woman, but an appreciation of her personality charm.

Because what Lin Qian wants to get depends on her own ability and talent, not other things. In this regard, An Jinlin will never be able to compare with Lin Qian in her life.

An Jinlin's methods were completely powerless in front of Qiao Chen. In the end, Butler Wang came over, "Young Master, it's almost time for dinner, should you ask Second Young Master to come down for dinner?"

Steward Wang's attitude has already shown that he doesn't welcome the An family sister and brother. Although he is old, he is not confused. He knows very well what the purpose of the two sisters and brothers is. , think beautifully.

"Well, good." Qiao Chen stood up and said to the two sisters and brothers, "Then you two should stay and have dinner together."

Naturally, An Jinlin would not let go of such a good opportunity, so after a little refusal, she stayed.

After An Jincheng arrived in the Celestial Dynasty, it was not the first time he went to someone else's house as a guest, but this was the first time he saw the master trust a housekeeper so much, and it was also the first time he saw a housekeeper dare to take care of the master.

"Second Young Master, you can't eat any more of these hairy crabs. I'll ask the kitchen to make you a supper later. You should eat more vegetables now." Steward Wang politely bowed beside Qiao Jingan, but the expression on his face indicated this. There is no room for negotiation.

Qiao Jingan raised his head and blinked at Butler Wang, then glanced at the hairy crab with some reluctance.

"Second Young Master, it's shameful to be cute." Steward Wang turned his head to look at Qiao Chen, "Young Master, you can't get too used to Second Young Master. Second Young Master seems to have lost weight recently."

Thin?Qiao Chen carefully looked at Qiao Jingan, but he didn't notice that he was thin, but he felt that Qiao Jingan's cheeks were a little fleshy. He coughed dryly, and expressed a very cooperative silence regarding the old man's ability to point a deer into a horse.

Qiao Jingan opened his mouth to take a bite of the bamboo shoots that Qiao Chen picked, and then continued to grill the rice obediently, but soon there were a few pieces of his favorite shiitake mushrooms in the bowl.

In the world he lives in, there are very few shiitake mushrooms. Although he likes to eat them, the portions are very small each time. This is considered a treatment only for rich families. For some small families, it is not bad to be able to eat it two or three times in this life. , so now I can have mushrooms every meal, and the second young master feels very satisfied.

Compared with the two brothers who eat freely, the An family's two brothers and sisters are a little bit lost.There was no sound at the entire dinner table. The two of them were already seeking for others. In this quiet atmosphere, they always felt an unspeakable uneasiness. It seemed that as long as Qiao Chen spoke, it would be the answer they both hoped and feared .

After eating and rinsing their mouths, the four of them sat on the sofa in the living room again. This time, Qiao Jingan didn't go upstairs. It's a pity that he took a copy of "Dream of Red Mansions" and sat beside Qiao Chen, with half of his body still leaning on Qiao Chen. Obviously came to join in the fun but didn't care about the business.

"Mr. Qiao, I don't know about this cooperation..."

"Hey." Qiao Jingan turned a page of the hardcover book in his hand, but frowned, "Why do I feel that this bag-changing plan is always inappropriate with the previous article?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Chen touched Qiao Jingan's head, "The last forty chapters of this book were not written by the original author, but they were written according to my own understanding. It is normal for there to be differences."

"I see," Qiao Jingan nodded, and continued to read in silence.

Seeing Qiao Chen being so gentle to Qiao Jingan, An Jinlin felt mixed feelings when he thought of how indifferent he was to her.In her memory, Qiao Chen was a polite but indifferent person. Except for his few friends, others only saw his alienated smile. Even when Lin Qian was with him back then, the two of them didn't want to be passionately in love. The couples in the book are more like boyfriend and girlfriend with a better relationship.

Maybe some people are like this, they are indifferent to many people, but when they are alone with a certain person, they are really good.Maybe in Qiao Chen's mind, only this younger brother is worthy of his kindness, or maybe the two brothers are really deeply bound by blood, so that they have an intimacy that other brothers can't have.

I don't know if it's An Jincheng's illusion, he felt that after Qiao Jingan sat down, Qiao Chen even lowered his voice a few degrees, he was slightly surprised, he is also a man, he naturally understands how careless a man is, Only when facing the person you love, will you show an extremely considerate side.No wonder it was rumored that Qiao Chen had always been ruthless towards women. It turned out that his feelings were all for his younger brother. However, no matter how good the relationship between brothers is, wouldn't there be a day when they would be separated?

"As for the cooperation, I don't see your company's sincerity. Maybe Lin Cong, the general manager of the Lin family, is more willing to cooperate with your company. How can I win the favor of others?" Qiao Chen smiled while stroking Qiao Jingan's head He said, "What's more, the Qiao family is now cooperating with a multinational company in the United States. I'm afraid they won't be able to spend more funds to invest in your company."

An Jinlin's complexion changed slightly when she heard the words. She knew about Qiao's cooperation with a company in the United States some time ago, and she also knew that the Asian agent of this company was Qiao Chen's friend in college and cooperated with a company in the United States. , Qiao's is a win-win situation, and indeed has more benefits than cooperating with An's.

But now that the global financial crisis has affected the overall economy of Bang Country, China is the least affected country in the world, and there is even a faint tendency to win amidst the chaos. The 20-year-old foundation moved to China.

To enter the Tianchao market, there must be a gap, and the only one that can give An's a firm foothold is Qiao's, but the other party is obviously unwilling to help.

"Qiao Chen, as long as you can help An's overcome this difficulty, you can make any request." An Jinlin was a little anxious, and said the words without thinking.

Hearing this anxious voice, Qiao Jingan withdrew his gaze from the book, looked at An Jinlin with a half-smile, slowly closed the book in his hand, and then said, "Miss An, what conditions do you think can make Qiao Can you help me with this?" Selling yourself?I remember that those who wanted help from the Duan family in the previous life always asked their daughters to be concubines for the Duan family.Thinking of this, Qiao Jingan frowned, don't even think about such a thing, since he has already decided to be with his brother, there is no room for others to peep.

An Jinlin didn't expect Qiao Jingan to speak suddenly, seeing Qiao Jingan's slightly sarcastic eyes, she looked at Qiao Chen, and found that the other party was not at all unhappy with Qiao Jingan's interruption.

How could Qiao Chen tolerate others interrupting when he was talking about business?

"Cooperating with An's is almost dispensable to Qiao's, and if you are not careful, you will take risks." Qiao Jingan narrowed his eyes slightly, "An's does not account for half of the market, I miss you, Miss An. It is also clear that Anshi does not have any advantages now, without Qiaoshi's help, Anshi will be nothing soon, so what kind of conditions do you think are worthy of Qiaoshi's help, or..." Qiao Jingan put the book on the tea table Come on, with a slight smile, "Or, what kind of price can you Anshi afford?"

An Jinlin forced a smile, "Second Young Master, I think President Qiao knows more about the company."

"Am I wrong?" Qiao Jing'an didn't take An Jinlin's provocative words seriously at all, "At least I said that this cooperation is unnecessary, then An's will never be able to cooperate with Qiao's, Miss An believes me Words?"

Qiao Chen saw that Qiao Jingan's attitude suddenly became sharp, and he didn't even hide the sharp aura on his body. He knew that An Jinlin's words could anger him under any conditions. Thinking that the other party was jealous for him, Qiao Chen became very emotional. That's right, he patted Qiao Jing'an on the head and said to An Jinlin, "Miss An, Qiao's is not mine alone, it is also Xiao An's, so Xiao An has the right to speak on any matter."

After hearing this sentence, An Jincheng frowned. Did Qiao Chen not care about Qiao Jingan's almost rude behavior?And what does it mean to say such words in front of them? Is it to show Qiao Jingan's status in Qiao's to the outside world?

Qiao Chen's few words successfully made a certain lion stretch out its paws and become a lazy cat again.So Second Young Master Qiao quickly withdrew the fierce aura that rarely appeared on his body, and leaned on Qiao Chen to prepare to continue reading.

A sly smile appeared on the corner of Qiao Chen's mouth. As a husband and wife, property naturally belongs to each other. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine.

The smile on An Jinlin's face could no longer be maintained, and she lowered her face and said, "Since Mrs. Qiao looks down on us, Anjia, then I won't bother you today." After finishing speaking, she stood up from the sofa, looked at Qiao Jingan and sneered, "Then I Just wait and see if the Second Young Master Qiao can always have the final say in Qiao's. President Qiao can make your mother die unexpectedly, so he can also make you die accidentally." After saying this, she stepped on her high heels and walked out of Qiao's house. home gate.

An Jincheng's complexion changed when he heard the words. Seeing Qiao Jingan lowering his head, he couldn't help but say, "What my sister said was just angry words, Qiao Jingan, you...don't take it seriously." After finishing speaking, he didn't dare to look at Qiao Chen With a pale face, he hurriedly followed out.

"Sister, why do you say that?" An Jincheng disapproved after following An Jinlin into the car, "Aren't you making it clear that you are against Qiao Chen?"

"Since Qiao Chen doesn't want to help, we don't have to worry about him," An Jinlin sneered, "What's more, the fact that Qiao Chen is Qiao Jingan's mother is not a secret that cannot be found out. Aren't the two brothers in love? Let's see, what will happen to the two brothers when Qiao Jingan knows the truth?"

An Jincheng's heart trembled, but he didn't want this to be true. If it was true, how sad would Qiao Jingan be?Moreover, if Qiao Chen is angered, it will be even more difficult to settle down in the future.He subconsciously shook hands, "Sister, maybe Qiao Jingan won't take this seriously."

"Whether he will take it seriously or not, I don't know, but I know that once the suspicion is planted, the consequences will be unimaginable," An Jinlin stepped on the gas pedal, smiling ironically, "The half-brother in the big family wants to It’s so good that we don’t know each other, why don’t we believe in peace in the world tomorrow.” Since the other party won’t make her feel better, why should she think about the other party.

Hearing this, An Jincheng felt unspeakably cold all over his body. When did his sister become like this?

Steward Wang, who was holding a glass of milk, stopped walking when An Jinlin said that. He looked at the two brothers sitting on the sofa worriedly. The death of Qiao Jingan's mother was not actually rumored by the outside world. But what if Er Shao believed those words?

Qiao Jingan looked up at Qiao Chen, and found that Qiao Chen was also looking at him. His beautiful eyes were like the deep night sky, which made him feel a little indescribable.Stretching his arms around Qiao Chen's neck, Qiao Jingan said firmly, "Don't worry, I won't let those people snatch you away, I keep my word." If I promise to marry you, I will never break my promise.

As for An Jinlin's provocative words before she left, in Qiao Ershao's ears, they were just floating clouds.Even if it is true, to him, it is considered a rare and common thing. After all, what he has seen in his previous life is darker and bloodier than what he has heard now.

The trace of worry in his heart immediately disappeared without a trace when his chest touched Qiao Jingan's body temperature. He put his arms around the young man's slender waist, and Qiao Chen laughed softly, "Well, I believe in you."

Gently sniffing the youth's faint body fragrance, how could he not be tempted by such a person?

Steward Wang looked at the scene where the two brothers neither quarreled nor quarreled, but embraced friendly. Could it be that the second young master believed in the young master in his heart?

As expected of the second young master, he is really a considerate child, look at the milk in his hand, since now, let's make an exception to let the second young master drink orange juice tonight.
