Um?Qiao Yu's eyes widened for a moment, Xia Xiaoli thought to herself, it's over, it's over, Mr. Qiao was really kept in the dark, seeing him so surprised, he must be very sad.

Regret speaking out?Xia Xiaoli didn't know either, and felt that this seemed to be a dead end. Whether she said it or not, it would hurt people.

It's all Xia Xiaoberry's fault.

He put down the lunch box, put his hand on Qiao Yu's arm, and seriously comforted him, saying, "Mr. Qiao, don't be sad. It's all Xia Xiaobing's fault. That person is no match for you."

Qiao Yu's mind was running fast, and when he first heard it, he felt a little bit in his heart, thinking that Xia Xiaoli really knew something, but now he felt... This child did know something, but it didn't seem very clear.

At least, if a child of this age sees his sister with another beautiful sister, it is difficult to imagine that they are a pair of lovers, and they will use the word "cheating" to describe it.

So what did Xia Xiaoli know?It's no wonder that the way I looked at myself all night was not right. Is my feeling sympathetic to myself?

Thinking of this level, Qiao Yu felt that it was really cute and funny.

He tentatively asked, "Little Li, what did you see?"

Xia Xiaoli was tangled in her heart again, and she simply broke her heart: "I saw her kiss another person."

"Did you see who it is?" Qiao Yu asked, thinking that if Xia Xiaoli really saw everything, then Xia Xiaoberry might need to explain to him about people's sexual orientation and each orientation It's all normal, don't let the children think about it.

Xia Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, and said, "I only saw one hand, and I'm pretty sure that hand wasn't yours. Xia Xiaoberry kissed him, and then they drove away. It was a Maserati."

When Qiao Yu heard "That hand is not yours", Qiao Yu was startled, and without thinking about it, he suddenly asked, "So you are chasing after them on a bicycle?"

Xia Xiaoli nodded: "I still lost it after chasing it, the sports car drove too fast out of the city center."

"Why are you chasing them? Xiaoli, this is very dangerous." Qiao Yu said.

"I was wrong... Teacher Qiao, but Xia Xiaoberry went too far, I was very angry, how could she treat you like this? Isn't she still in a relationship with you..." Xia Xiaoli was angry for Qiao Yu in her heart.

It was only then that Qiao Yu realized that this silly boy was chasing after his "cheating" sister on a scooter because he was defending himself against injustice, to find out what happened.

It was hard for him to describe what it was like in his heart at this moment, a heart beat in his chest.

It seems that I haven't felt this way for a long time. Someone is so nervous about himself, silly.

He put down his chopsticks and said, "Eat more, I'll let Xiaoberry come over later."

Xia Xiaoli was only focused on talking about what she had just seen, and was angry at Xia Xiaoberry's behavior. She didn't even notice that Qiao Yu had heard about it, and she didn't express surprise or anger from the beginning to the end.

Qiao Yu went to the side to call Xia Xiaoberry, and said, "Xiaoberry, come over to my place when you are free. Well, I just moved, and Xiaoli is here at the apartment. I have something to think about." tell you."

Then he hung up the phone and sent Xia Xiaoberry another message, roughly telling what happened when Xia Xiaoli saw her and her lover, and also said that Xiaoli was injured after chasing the car, and told her not to scold him for a while.

As for whether Xia Xiaoberry should tell her brother the truth, Qiao Yu let Xia Xiaoberry decide for herself.

After dealing with all this, Qiao Yu sat back on the ground in front of the sofa. Xia Xiaoli seemed to have lost her appetite due to this incident, and didn't eat much.

Qiao Yu unconsciously wanted to touch him, and scratched his ear with his fingers, and said, "Little Li, things may not be what you see."

"What's that like?" Xia Xiaoli was puzzled.

"Your sister is an adult, isn't she?" Qiao Yu was very gentle.

Xia Xiaoli nodded. Xia Xiaoberry is 27 years old and very old.

"An adult can handle her own feelings. Who she falls in love with and who she spends with is her own business, right?" Qiao Yu slowly guided him.

Xia Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, the reason is this, when Xia Xiaoberry was urged to go on a blind date before, he never messed with it, and he also felt that it was his sister's own business, and she should not be urged, but this is not the case now, now It was Xia Xiaoberry who stepped on two boats with one foot. Could it be wrong for me to be angry because of this?

He was a little dazed and asked, "Mr. Qiao, you and my sister are in a relationship, right?"

This is the key point. Qiao Yu can't avoid this question, but it's not his business alone. He paused and said, "Let's talk about this matter when Xiao Berry comes."

After putting away the unfinished lunch box, Qiao Yu asked him if he wanted a drink. There were some in the refrigerator that he had just bought this afternoon, so he asked him to take it by himself.

Xia Xiaoli walked slowly to the kitchen, took a bottle of sparkling water, and asked Qiao Yu if he wanted a drink. Qiao Yu said that he would pack up first.

In fact, there are quite a lot of things, Xia Xiaoli wanted to help, but she became a half-disabled person, and she couldn't get a handle on Qiao Yu's things. Except for the clothes bags and boxes, most of the others were books, and there were mountains and seas of books.

My own home didn't have so many books, and Xia Xiaoli didn't go to the library very much. It was the first time I saw so many books in a person's home, and I was a little amazed.

Doctor, professor, really need to read a lot of books, he admires Qiao Yu so much.

Qiao Yu dragged the suitcase into the bedroom and hung up the clothes first.

Xia Xiaoli was dangling in the living room, the cardboard box on the dining table had been opened, it was a glove box, and he saw a photo frame on top.

The photo in the photo frame is a group photo of two people standing on the lawn with a building that looks like a library behind them.

Xia Xiaoli picked it up and saw at a glance that one of them was Qiao Yu, but it was a little different from now, the facial features were the same, that is... oh, it was the younger Teacher Qiao, Xia Xiaoli recognized it.

He became interested in an instant, but he couldn't tell how old it was. Qiao Yu doesn't look like 33 years old now. If you look at his appearance alone, he should be in his twenties in the photo. A little more childish, looks like a young man.

Xia Xiaoli carefully looked at the eyebrows, eyes, bridge of the nose, lips, and sunny smile on this face, and thought it was really pretty, and any school would be at the level of a school grass.

Then he turned his attention to the person next to him. Qiao Yu put one arm on that person's shoulder, as if embracing him. He was also a very handsome boy.

But it was very different from Qiao Yu. Qiao Yu's facial features were deep and deep. This boy's contours were lighter, his expression was more ostentatious, his skin was honey-colored, and he had a ghostly and elf-like aura.

The boy grinned at the camera, while Qiao Yu's smile and eyes looked at him slightly.

Holding the photo frame in one hand, Xia Xiaoli was a little dazed, as a vine crawled across her heart, which made her feel sour.

This is Qiao Yu's good friend when he was studying abroad, right?It should be a very, very good friend, and it was only when I went back to China that I trekked through mountains and rivers to bring the photos back.

Everyone has a very good friend, like myself, and a best friend, Jian Rong... Xia Xiaoli was thinking in confusion.

Suddenly the doorbell rang, Xia Xiaoli came back to her senses, Qiao Yu called out from the room: "Wait a moment."

When he came out of the bedroom, Xia Xiaoli put down the photo frame casually, and Qiao Yu walked through the living room and said to him, "It's your sister who's here."

When Xia Xiaoberry entered the door, she exchanged glances with Qiao Yu, and then fell on Xia Xiaoli.

Xia Xiaoli was in a complicated mood, she glanced at her sister, then moved her gaze away abruptly.

Xia Xiaoberry took Xia Xiaoli to the sofa to sit down, and first looked at the injuries on his body. She was also in a very complicated mood. Before coming here, she thought about how to tell her brother for a long time, and also discussed with her girlfriend before making a decision.

"Does it hurt?" Xia Xiaoberry asked, looking at her younger brother's bruises and Xia Xiaoli's snow-white skin, she had never been hurt like this before, Xia Xiaoberry felt distressed and blamed herself since entering the door.

"It doesn't hurt much." Xia Xiaoli spoke very stiffly.

"Are you still angry with my sister?" Xia Xiaoberry held his hand. Although she was known for her tough attitude, she was always gentle with Xia Xiaoli, so her tone was extra soft.

Xia Xiaoli looked up at Qiao Yu, then at Xia Xiaoberry, and asked directly, "What's the matter with you? Are you hiding something from me?"

If he doesn't feel any tricks between these two people at this moment, he is really stupid.

Qiao Yu also sat down and said to Xia Xiaoberry, "I will support you no matter what you decide."

Xia Xiaoberry took a deep breath, she never thought that the first person to come out was not her parents, but her younger brother.

"Little Li, Teacher Qiao and I are not in a relationship." Xia Xiaoberry confessed.

Xia Xiaoli twitched her eyebrows, then looked at Qiao Yu again, Qiao Yu nodded, "That's right."

Xia Xiaoli looked at Xia Xiaoberry again, and said, "So what are you guys doing? Why are you acting?"

"Oh, then who is the person I saw today?" Xia Xiaoli asked a series of questions.

Xia Xiaoberry explained to him patiently: "What you saw today is my real object. I have been with her for three years."

"Little Li, she is not my sister's boyfriend, she is my sister's girlfriend, and she is also a beautiful sister, do you understand?"

Xia Xiaoli's eyes widened and she froze in place.

It's not that he doesn't know about "homosexuality", but he didn't expect Xia Xiaoberry to have a girlfriend by his side?He reacted subconsciously, dumbfounded: "Xia Xiaoberry, you...Mom...wouldn't you agree?"

It's hard to say what Xia Yunhan would think, their father had always spoiled his children so much, maybe he couldn't bear to blame him, but Baizhu was different, that would be full of tricks.

Xia Xiaoberry looked helpless, and said: "That's why I haven't told anyone, but being urged to go on a blind date is also very troublesome. I asked Teacher Qiao to do me a favor by pretending to be my boyfriend. This is indeed a It's more selfish...but it's easier for everyone, can you understand Xiaoli?"

After a while, Xia Xiaoli reluctantly nodded, and he confirmed with Xia Xiaoberry again: "You two are really not in a relationship? You don't like Teacher Qiao?"

Xia Xiaoberry smiled and said, "No, I like Teacher Qiao very much, but not the kind of person I like in love with. I like girls. This is natural. It has always been like this, and there is no way to change it."

Xia Xiaoli is no longer as shocked as she was when she first heard it, and she can calm down and think about it.

He found that Qiao Yu hadn't spoken much, and stayed quietly beside them. He stared at Qiao Yu in a daze, and Qiao Yu said to Xia Xiaoberry: "Don't worry, give Xiaoli a little time, I believe he can figure it out."

"I understand." Xia Xiaoli said, he has fully understood the truth and the ins and outs of the matter, in fact, it's not a big deal, at least in his opinion, it's all my sister's own business, who she likes and who she is with is a boy Still a girl, this is her private matter.

Before, he was only angry because he felt that his sister had "derailed" and cheated Teacher Qiao. Now that this problem doesn't exist, it's fine.

He said to Xia Xiaoberry: "I understand. Don't worry, I won't tell. Now this matter is a secret between the three of us."
