Overlord's Sand Sculpture Halo
Chapter 60
Before replying to Yang Yan, Qiao Jianman told the old man about it behind Gu Xiaoxiao's back.
The old man did not express his opinion directly, but chatted with her in a gossip manner: "Going to be someone's assistant? It seems that this Ms. Yang Yan is very remarkable."
Qiao Jianman nodded: "Well, she is a very powerful designer in the industry."
The old man's attitude towards her has always been amiable, but Qiao Jianman is still in awe of this father-in-law. He only jokes when a large family gathers together. In occasions like this one where serious matters are discussed, no matter how friendly the other party's attitude is , she would involuntarily straighten her back and assume a respectful posture.
Leaning on crutches, the old man lowered his eyes, seemingly in deep thought, before raising his eyes to look at her after a few seconds, "Then what do you think?"
Qiao Jianman couldn't figure out what he meant for a while, and said after deliberation: "For me, this opportunity is very rare, I am a little tempted... I want to go. Of course, if Dad thinks..."
Having said that, Qiao Jianman's voice lowered a lot, and then continued after a pause: "If Dad thinks it's not good, I don't have to go."
The old man smiled: "Huh? Is my opinion so important?"
He didn't think that Qiao Jianman's words were specifically for him. At first, he recognized this daughter-in-law because he trusted the Qiao family, but over the years, he has also seen Qiao Jianman's character, and he loves and respects her from the bottom of his heart.
"Well, it's important."
"It can be seen that in our Manman's heart, I'm afraid I'm an unreasonable old stubborn."
"No, Dad, I didn't think of you that way." Afraid that the old man might misunderstand, Qiao Jianman hurriedly explained, "I just think that you are my elder, so I should come to discuss such a big matter with you."
"What a silly boy, I am teasing you. I am also happy that you can discuss it with me. But the most important thing for you to discuss this kind of life event is to discuss it with yourself. Of course, you and your little wife are one body, and you should Discuss with her too, as for other people's opinions, don't take it too seriously...cough cough..."
The old man is getting old, and he has to talk too much, and his breath is not going well.
This is a common occurrence, but Qiao Jianman was still a little anxious, and hurried over to help him caress his back, "Talk slowly, don't worry."
The old man shook his head and sighed, "I'm getting old, I can't accept my old age."
Qiao Jianman wanted to say a few words of comfort, but seeing the old man's old face, she couldn't say something like "You are not old" against her will, she pursed her lips, and then said: "Aging is the fate of every life , we will follow in your footsteps."
"You are honest, kid." The old man smiled and boasted, then half-closed his eyes, as if talking to himself, "In a flash, more than 20 years have passed..."
Qiao Jianman was stunned for a moment, but did not respond, "What did Dad say?"
"In the past, the hard times were too long and difficult, but now I realize that these days are not difficult. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye."
Qiao Jianman was confused, but she didn't ask any more questions.
The old man talked to himself, then looked at Qiao Jianman, stared at her seriously, and looked at her seriously, "With so many children, the one I am most worried about is Xiaoxiao. She has been awkward and domineering since she was a child, what is she thinking? No one knows, but now that I have such a gentle, caring and tolerant wife like you, I feel relieved."
"You...don't say that." The old man's trusting and wise eyes made Qiao Jianman feel a little guilty, and the hidden thoughts in her heart were aroused by this guilty conscience. After some hesitation, she finally couldn't help but tell the old man The truth: "Actually, I'm not as good as my father thought. Before Xiaoxiao's accident happened, I filed for divorce from her..."
The old man's calm expression made Qiao Jianman a little surprised, "Don't you feel surprised, Dad?"
The old man just smiled, "I thought your married life would not last for three months."
"For...why?"
The old man shrugged cutely, "I don't think any girl can bear Xiaoxiao's nasty temper."
Qiao Jianman was amused by him, "That's right, Dad also thinks she has a bad temper."
The old man nodded, his smile gradually faded, "If you compare people to a book, then Xiaoxiao is the book that makes people give up after reading it..."
"Some books require patience. Only when you understand them will you realize what a wonderful book it is."
"Yes, some books require patience. Thank you, thank you for being patient with this book."
Qiao Jianman shook her head lightly, "I should say thank you, thank you dad for giving me such a wonderful book."
"If you think so, it seems that I can rest assured about your future." The old man relaxed, and gave her a few more words, "You are a smart and good boy, whether it is now or in the future, you can Be yourself as much as you want, love what you love, be passionate about what you are passionate about, you can listen to other people's advice, but you don't have to listen to other people's opinions. This other person includes me and Xiaoxiao."
The implication is that the old man fully supports her in chasing her dream.
Qiao Jianman was a little moved, but felt that saying "thank you" seemed perfunctory, "I will keep my father's teaching in mind."
The old man waved his hand, "Okay, go do your work, I have to rest for a while."
Qiao Jianman saw that he was indeed tired, so he didn't say much.
With the approval of the old man, Qiao Jianman replied to Yang Yan.
Yang Yan is a busy person, so she didn't give Qiao Jianman too much time to prepare, so she asked her identity information directly, and then told her assistant to arrange the next itinerary.
The parting was imminent, Qiao Jianman did not look forward to it as he imagined, but felt a lot of anxiety.
So, the night before departure, she asked Mr. Gu again solemnly: "We may be separated for half a year to a year, are you really okay?"
The little wife is leaving tomorrow, Mr. Gu only wants to seize the good time tonight, he doesn't want to waste time on such meaningless conversations, muttering, impatiently said: "You have asked several times all over."
Qiao Jianman reached out to hold her face, preventing her from coming up to kiss him, "This is the last time."
After a lonely kiss, Gu Boss suddenly became childish, "If I say there is a relationship, can I not separate from Manman?"
Qiao Jianman looked at her, thinking about her question very seriously, after a while, she nodded, "Maybe I will reconsider."
Gu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, before the surprise spread to her face, Huo Zhijin's words first came to mind.
She is the woman who loves to share the bed with her from the bottom of her heart, but she can't define the love in words, but she can't say why, and she still doesn't know how to express it.
But at least she is clear that she doesn't want to make the person she loves feel regretful. Although she is afraid that the person she loves will fly to the wider sky, she doesn't want to break the person's wings.
"Admit it."
Qiao Jianman touched his forehead that had been slapped, and looked at Mr. Gu who suddenly had a haughty expression in puzzlement, "Admit what?"
Gu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes, "Actually, you just can't leave me."
After waiting for a long time, just waiting for such a reply, Qiao Jianman was amused and annoyed, "Yes, I just can't leave you, can you leave me?"
Gu Xiaoxiao snorted with her nose, leaned over and bit her neck, "Manman must have done it on purpose, she knew she was going to leave tomorrow, and she wasted tonight's time..."
Qiao Jianman understood her answer from her gag, and then took the initiative to take off her pajamas.
*****
As soon as Qiao Jianman got on the plane, Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't rest on her back.After all, for the past two years, she and her little wife have been inseparable, and they are suddenly separated like this, and she feels uncomfortable anywhere.
After leaving the airport, she didn't even bother to go back home, so she asked the driver to step on Gu's gas pedal.
The Gu family hasn't seen this female devil for a long time. When they saw her coming, everyone was terrified and set off the first-level alarm in private. He took the president's elevator and came directly to the president's office.
Eva looked at the former boss, and secretly tidied up her appearance before she straightened up and greeted her, "Mr. Gu."
Gu Xiaoxiao glanced at her, and was always quite satisfied with this caring secretary, "Where's Gu Yaocen?"
"Mr. Gu is in a meeting." Eva said and raised her hand to check the time. "It should be almost over. Would you like to wait in the lounge here?"
Gu Xiaoxiao nodded her chin and followed Eva into the office.
After waiting for less than 10 minutes, Gu Yaocen ended the meeting. When he saw Mr. Gu sitting in his seat, he frowned slightly, "Little aunt is busy today?"
"Don't worry, I'm not here to snatch your position as president." Gu Xiaoxiao leaned back on the leather chair, "I just think this chair is quite comfortable to sit on."
Gu Yaocen rolled his eyes, too lazy to talk nonsense with her, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"It's okay, I'm just bored, I'm here to play with you."
"Aha..." Gu Yaocen put down the water glass he had just picked up, looked at her like he was insane, and then thought of something, "Little aunt really left with Yang Yan?"
Gu Xiaoxiao nodded dully, "Why don't I come to play with you?"
Gu Yaocen's eyes lit up, "Little aunt is not at home, you are so boring by yourself, why don't you come to Gu's to have fun?"
Gu Xiaoxiao gave her a sneer.
Gu Yaocen continued to be persuasive, "It's easier to live when you're busy, it's better than staying at home alone and looking at your wife Shi."
"It's useless to say anything."
Gu Yaocen then gave up and picked up the water glass to drink water again.
After being quiet for a while, Gu Yaocen felt that it was possible to save her a little bit, "As soon as my little aunt left, you couldn't be idle anymore. Are you sure you really won't come..."
"I'm going to have a baby."
"..." The air seemed to freeze, and it took several seconds before Gu Yaocen came back to his senses, "What did you just say?"
Gu Xiaoxiao shrugged, contrary to Gu Yaocen's surprised expression, she was quite relaxed, "I'm not going to be idle, I plan to give Manman a baby to play with."
"So you came here specifically to tell me about this?"
Gu Xiaoxiao propped her chin and thought for a while, "It's not special, it's mainly because I feel a little bored after walking for a long time, so I came to play with you."
"Having a baby, are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious."
Gu Yaocen took a deep breath, "Does little aunt know?"
"I'm going to leave it as a surprise for her."
"Are you sure you're not scared?"
Gu Xiaoxiao thought about her words seriously, "It may indeed be a little frightening for Xi to be a mother all of a sudden, but it must be more of Xi."
After finishing speaking, she stood up and stretched comfortably, "Do you want to have lunch together?"
Gu Yaocen directly skipped her question, "How long are you going to hide from my little aunt about pretending to be stupid?"
This question was too disappointing, Gu Xiaoxiao looked unhappy, "I just lost my memory, not pretending to be stupid."
"What's the difference between amnesia so much that you think you're only five years old and pretending to be stupid?"
Gu Xiaoxiao was speechless, "I didn't want to hide it from her for a long time, but I just... don't know how to say it."
"So you're going to use children as steps?"
The land in this sentence made Gu Xiaoxiao feel a little embarrassed, "We have also discussed and planned about the child, but now the child is born by me..."
Gu Yaocen disapproves of her actions from the bottom of her heart. In her opinion, the best way to solve the lie is to admit the lie as soon as possible, instead of finding various reasons and excuses to cover up the lie.
However, when the words came to her lips, she pursed her lips again—there are all kinds of emotions in the world, and maybe everyone can find their own unique balance in their own emotions, and others should not be the ones to judge.
"Does little aunt like children?"
"I don't know, but I think I should be a person who loves houses and birds."
Gu Yaocen didn't say a word about this, "Then I wish my little aunt a smooth delivery."
"Perfunctory." Gu Xiaoxiao snorted lightly, and asked again: "Shall we eat together?"
Gu Yaocen raised his eyebrows, "No, I want to eat with my wife."
"..." The boss Gu, who was hit hard, held back for a long time before he could say, "What's so great about having a wife?"
"It's nothing special to have a wife, but it's great to eat with a wife."
Mr. Gu, who had no wife to accompany him to dinner, had no choice but to leave angrily. Cen Cen's little niece had changed and was no longer fun, so she decided to go back and eat with her old man.
