Chapter 33 - My Father Is Going to Hit Me with A Stick (2/2)
Bei Mingfan was stunned for a moment, looked at her calmly, and smiled: “Miss Sheng, few people would refuse Zhongxia. You also know that with your qualifications and age, you don’t have an advantage in this circle. It’s an exception that Zhongxia is willing to sign you. “
“Thank you for your kindness.” She looked the same. “But, just jumped out of a fire pit, I need to be careful. Thank you for taking the time to meet me. I’ll take this contract and proposal back to have a good look. “
Bei Mingfan gave a funny smile, “OK, I’ll wait for your reply.” He stood up and buttoned up his suit. “Miss Sheng, the starting point will determine the final height. Since you have to choose to start again, it’s better to choose the best platform, don’t you think?”
Sheng Qiao nodded and smiled naturally: “you are right.”
When they got to the door, Bei Mingfan asked her, “Miss Sheng, can I give you a ride?”
“Thank you. No need. I want to go by myself.”
Bei Mingfan doesn’t ask, smiles and turns away. Sheng Qiao looks at the blue sky, takes her hat and mask, and strolls in the direction of going home.
In winter, there are few people on the street and they come and go in a hurry. No one pays special attention to the wandering girl on the street. When passing a clothing shop window, Sheng Qiao glanced at it and pushed the door in.
The shopping guide immediately came up, and Sheng Qiao waved for herself to see. She came to pick two down coats. She touched her cell phone and called. The other end was connected quickly. She smiled happily: “Mom, do you like gray or blue?”
“What are you doing?”
“Buy you a down jacket.”
“Why do you spend that money? I don’t have no clothes to wear. The clothes in the city are expensive. Don’t buy them randomly. Mom doesn’t need them.”
“Of course, you should wear new clothes for the new year. I’ll be back in a few days.”
“Just come back. You are not allowed to buy any clothes.”
“Well, I see.”
After hanging up, she handed the two clothes to the shopping guide, “wrap them together.”
Count the time. It’s a week before the new lunar year.
Taking advantage of the fact that the civil servants haven’t had a holiday, Sheng Qiao ran to the court several times with Qiao Yu, signed the signature and went through the formalities, and only waited for the judgment after year.
Sheng Qiao finds out the largest suitcase, packs it, and orders a flight the next morning. After cleaning up, she looked at the beautifully packed gift box on the bed and sipped her lips. At last, she called Qiao Yu.
As soon as she got through, Qiao Yu was surprised: “just about to find you, you called.”
The tacit understanding between brother and sister also came into being today.
Sheng Qiao is in a good mood: “what can I do for you?”
“I have something for you. Would you come to me later?”
“Convenient. Um… I have something for you, too. “
“Yes, you will come to our law firm in a moment.”
“I… Can I go straight to your house later? In the afternoon There’s something else. “
“That’s fine. I’ll be off at six.”
“Well, see you in the evening.”
After an afternoon’s abdominal draft, she practiced smiling in front of the mirror for a long time. Towards evening, Sheng Qiao went out with a gift box.
By the time she got to the community, it was dark and the lights of Qiao’s house were on. She bit her lip, step by step, step by step, pressed down the surging emotions in her heart, stood at the door, took a deep breath, and finally rang the doorbell.
She has done her best to face her parents, and it turns out that Qiao Yu is the one who opens the door.
“Here you are, come in and sit down.” Seeing the gift bag in her hand, he was surprised and said, “you still bring a gift?”
The room was full of lights, and the TV was noisy, but only Qiao Yu was there alone. Sheng Qiao was a little lost, and she said with a smile, “this is a new year gift for your parents. Thank you for helping me solve such a big problem.”
“Didn’t I say it all? It’s my duty. My parents have gone out for a walk and will be back in a moment. “
Qiao Yu took the gift bag in her hand, put it on the tea table, poured her a glass of water, looked at her uneasy appearance, and felt strange and uncomfortable, and asked her, “do you eat fruit?”
“No more. What did you say you had something for me? “
Qiao Yu squeezed his eyes, got up and took out a document from the closet. It’s packed in a yellow leather bag. It’s used to untie the tangled thread. It’s filled with the final judgment.
Sheng Qiao looked at those words and stared for a long time, then looked up at Qiao Yu.
He is still giggling, “don’t wait until next year, have a good Spring Festival.”
Sheng Qiao blinks and tears come out of her eyes. In the next moment, she swoops up to hold Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu was frightened to stagger two steps by her. He Doesn’t know if he should hold her. He was just trying to comfort her not to cry. The door opened with a click, and Qiao’s father pushed Qiao’s mother in.
Their eyes contacted, and they all fell on the girl in his arms.
Qiao Yu：…
Mom and Dad, listen to me.
He pushed Sheng Qiao: “well, my parents are back…”
Then he heard Sheng Qiao cry more.
Dad, really, I didn’t. Don’t look at me like that. Your son didn’t do anything.
“Sheng Qiao, if you don’t let go and explain it, my father is going to hit me with a stick.”
The girl in his arms finally sobbed and let him go.
She lowered her head, wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and said in a voice: “I just saw the verdict and I was too excited, I didn’t control it for a while, I’m sorry.”
Qiao’s father thinks the name Sheng Qiao is a little familiar.
He took out his cell phone and searched.
Ooh, still a star.
