Chapter 139
Da Qiao had never been in such awkward position. She was exposed on the spot for lying.
"Little Dong Yun, Xu Xu, Elder Sister lied to you just now because I was afraid that you were too young and eating popsicles would be bad for your health."
Seeing her younger siblings' condemning gaze, cold sweat was about to break down.
Little Dong Yun sterned up her black face, "Elder Sister shouldn't lie either!"
Xue An Xu frowned and spoke, "Elder Sister Dong Yun, don't be so fierce to my elder sister. She should know she's wrong. Elder Sister, do you know you're wrong?"
Da Qiao nodded like a pecking chick: "Yes, Elder Sister know my wrong. I shouldn't lie to you even if it's a white lie. All in all, lying is bad. Elder Sister apologize to you!"
Little Dong Yun's little head nodded: "Knowing your mistakes and correct them means Elder Sister is a good kid. I forgive you!"
Xue An Xu nodded, "I also forgive Elder Sister. But Elder Sister, I want to eat a popsicle!"
Forgiveness was possible, but popsicles can't be skipped!
Xue An Xu's dark eyes smartly spun around, looking like a thief.
Being caught, Da Qiao could only meet her younger siblings' request and bought them a popiscle each.
The female boss didn't expect returning the five cents to create business. She was so happy that she grinned and personally delivered the popsicles.
After eating the popsicles, Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun were finally satisfied.
The group got into the car. When Da Qiao got in the car, Zhao Chu Yang got off a car.
He stretched body and in midst of it, he caught sight of Da Qiao getting into a car.
His whole body trembled. The next moment he bolted out like a cannonball and ran like a leopard.
"Pretty lady, wait! Pretty lady, wait for me!"
But the distance was a little far. No one on Da Qiao's side heard it. Even if they hear it, they may not stop.
Huo Chi was the last to get into the car. Afterward, the driver immediately drove away.
When Zhao Chu Yang reached that side, the car had already gone far and left only a trial of dust.
"How hateful!"
Zhao Chu Yang stretched out his foot and kicked the trash can beside him. His fist smashed on the telephone pole on the side of the road.
During this period of time, he had used countless methods to inquire about the girl's news.
He originally thought that if his mom got involved, it would definitely get his eldest brother to open up and tell him the girl's information. Unexpectedly, his eldest brother was too rigid this time. Even with his mom involved, he won't budge.
He knew that the girl's younger brother and sister were in the company. So he went to the company from time to time to lurk around.
He came to the company many times and couldn't approach the kids within two meters every time. Let alone talk to them.
He tried to pull it out of the employees of the company. However, they were ordered by his eldest brother- whoever dared to tell him, they would be fired!
He was pissed off!
He walked back with a downcast face. His mood was extremely bad.
Seeing him like this, Mother Zhao hurriedly said in distressed: "Chu Yang, what's wrong? Who were you running after just now?"
Zhao Chu Yang impatiently answered: "Mom, it's not like you don't know. I fell in love with a girl recently and my elder brother just won't tell me about her. I saw her just now. I was one step behind. If you weren't dragging your feet when we head out, how could I miss her?"
Mother Zhao didn't get angry when she got berated. Instead, she took the initiative to apologize: "Alright, alright. It's Mom's fault. Mom apologize to you!"
Zhao Chu Yang put his hands on his chest and exclaimed, "Mom, if I go on like this, I will definitely not be able to live. If I die, don't be too sad. Just pretend that you never gave birth to me!"
How could Mother Zhao bear to hear this? Holding his head, she urged him not to do stupid things and guaranteeing that she would help him dig out the girl's news.
Zhao Chu Yang was secretly delighted in his heart despite the helplessness on his face: "Mom, it's useless. My eldest brother is dead set this time. He won't tell you!"
Mother Zhao knocked the cane to the ground with a bang: "Who said that. I don't believe your eldest brother can watch me die!"
She was persuaded by her eldest son before; he said that that person's younger siblings played a decisive role in the development of the company, so he could not let Zhao Chu Yang harass their family no matter what.
Although she doted the youngest son the most, the eldest son was the pillar of the family. Since he said such things, it meant that this matter was really important.
So with a turn of a head, she coaxed Youngest Son and told him Eldest Son wouldn't listen to her. Now that Youngest Son didn't want to live, how could she care so much?
Youngest Son was her precious. If his life was endangered, she can't live!
That was why Mother Zhao decided to not go to the company. Instead, she went home and went to bed. A hunger strike started.
Da Qiao and others didn't know what happened after they left. When they returned to Huo's house, the food was almost ready.
When everyone saw Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun, they all gathered to ask about the training.
Although Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun were both very talented, they were newbies after all. They didn't understand many things. So before the TV series started filming and before the song was recorded, the company hired teachers for both of them.
Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun were eating as they told everyone what happened in the company.
Also, the two of them received approval from the school. They didn't have to go back to school during this time.
But homework can't be pushed aside. If they fail the exam, they must repeat the grade.
Haisheng Filming Company was a relatively prestigious and generous company. They had invited teachers to give them cultural lessons for the two of them least that their homework piled up too much.
This was also the reason why Qiao Family agreed to let the two children join.
Xue An Xu was even more excited than little Dong Yun. His small mouth kept chattering.
He truly liked acting. He can't wait to stay in the company and film every day!
The food was quickly served up by everyone. Because there were too many people, it was divided into two tables. Each table had twelve meat dishes, plus soup and dessert. A total of eighteen dishes.
Compared with the previous years, this feast was simply bountiful.
In the past few years, everyone had eaten well. When they see a table of delicious food, they won't fixate their eyes on it and keep swallowing like before.
However, Xue Chuan's culinary was still very worthy of praise. When the fragrance waft up, even people who weren't hungry will immediately have their hunger be aroused.
As the own birthday star, Dai Shu Fang, she was pushed to the most middle position by everyone.
She looked at the room full of people and felt extremely emotional.
She picked up the soda on the table and thanked everyone: "Thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday today. I hope we can get together today next year! Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
Everyone uttered in unison, raised their heads, and downed the soda in their hands.
Xue An Xu secretly dipped the alcohol in his grandfather's glass with his chopsticks. Immediately, his face turned red from the spiciness.
Qiao An Jie, who was beside him, watched and pursed his lips into a grin.
After some blessings, everyone sat down to eat.
Zhong Kang De looked at the blushing Dai Shu Fang and asked, "You didn't seem to make a wish just now?"
Dai Shu Fang smiled and replied, "My wish is mostly fulfilled. The rest is up to my son!"
After she finished speaking, her eyes lovingly fell on Da Qiao.
Obviously, her wish was for Da Qiao to be her daughter-in-law. Da Qiao was still studying and not in a hurry about the engagement.
Da Qiao's face turned red from everyone's gaze. She was even more beautiful than the jasmine flowers on the branches in spring.
On the opposite side, Qiao Dong He looked at Da Qiao with envy.
Younger Sister Da Qiao was so lucky. Not only was she good-looking, she was also smart and everyone liked her.
Seeing the way Huo Family love her, one can tell how happy she will be when she get married in the future!
She wasn't jealous of Younger Sister Da Qiao at all. She felt that Younger Sister Da Qiao was beautiful and kind. Younger Sister Da Qiao deserve to be treated and cared for like this.
She was just a little envious and a little sad.
She felt that she had done nothing wrong and her mother-in-law didn't like her. No matter how she step back and please her, the other party seemed to dislike her.
She was troubled by this.
This time, when she heard that her mother-in-law was coming over, her heart kept beating like drums. She often woke up from nightmares in the past few nights.
She knew that she was too useless. Originally, she wanted to ask her grandmother to help her, but she didn't expect her grandmother to be completely disappointed in her.
She didn't blame her grandmother for not helping her. She was only depressed that she was so useless!
Sitting by her side, Luo Jun Liang saw his wife's reoccurring daze state. He put a piece of pork in her bowl and spoke, "You seem to have lost weight recently, eat more meat."
Only then did Qiao Dong He come back to her senses. She squeezed a smile at him: "I will eat more."
Da Qiao saw the changes in her elder cousin sister's expression and sighed silently in her heart.
She liked her cousin, But growing up come with all kinds of troubles.
Her grandmother had already told her that she couldn't help her elder cousin sister this time. She must be forced to stand up by herself.
She felt that with her elder cousin sister's personality, there would be a lot of bump in the middle of the process!
Huo Chi put an unshelled shrimp in her bowl and whispered, "Eat it. I'll peel more for you after you're done."
Da Qiao curved her lips and smiled. The dimples at the corner of her mouth appeared: "Thank you Elder Brother Huo Chi. You don't need to worry about me. Eat yours!"
Huo Chi hooked his lips and replied, "It's okay. I'll peel them for you."
He had discovered an amusing habit of Da Qiao. She liked to eat shrimp, but she was too lazy to peel the shell. So she would rather not eat it.
Since he discovered this little secret, he would take the initiative to peel the shrimps for her every time there were shrimps on the table.
Everyone pretended they didn't notice them, except for Xue An Xu.
Xue An Xu remembered that he had overheard his parents saying that Elder Brother Huo Chi was his elder sister's match. At that time, he didn't ask his elder sister because he was entering the company.
Later, when he started training, he forgot about it. Now that he saw Elder Brother Huo Chi peeling shrimp shells for his elder sister, he suddenly remembered it.
His clear voice could be heard saying, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, are you going to marry my elder sister in the future?"
As soon as these words came out, Da Qiao and Huo Chi's faces flushed red.
The adults chuckled.
Seeing that Elder Brother Huo Chi didn't answer him, Xue An Xu continued to babble: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, let me tell you, it's not impossible for you to marry my sister, But you must marry me too!"
Everyone erupted in laughters when they heard this!
Dai Shu Fang laughed until tears came out: "Xu Xu, why do you want to marry your elder brother Huo Chi?"
Xue An Xu said with his small face puffed: "I don't want to marry Elder Brother Huo Chi. It's more like I don't want to leave my elder sister. So I have to get married over together!"
"Hahaha... my stomach is going die from laughing!"
Huo Chi: I was terrified at the time. My whole being reject it!
Da Qiao didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Who knew the next moment, Qiao An Jie was heard saying: "Then I'll marry over too!"
Since Xu Xu was marrying, one more him didn't matter.
Then little Dong Yun joined in the fun: "I want to marry over too! Elder Brother Huo Chi, don't worry. I'm going to make a lot of money in the future, and I can support you guys!"
Huo Chi: Marrying a wife wasn't just buy one get three free, but also get supported?
He had it hard!
Everyone's stomach hurt from laughing when they hear these childish words.
Huo Family's yard was filled with laughter for a long time.
While Huo Family bubbled with laughter, Qiao Dong Ying, who was in college in the provincial city, broken up with her boyfriend.
Last year, she took a man named Wu Yi home. Unexpectedly, that man turned out to be a spy and she almost brought trouble to her family.
She felt very guilty at the time.
Two months ago, she started a new relationship. It was less than a month after the two confirmed their relationship and he broke up with her.
Qiao Dong Ying looked at the beautiful youth in front of her and stated coldly, "Breaking up is not a problem, but can you give me a reason?"
The boy replied: "How do I put it? Before I knew you, I thought you were a very independent girl. Only after meeting you, I realized that your independence and self-confidence are all illusions. Just an empty shell. Maybe you yourself didn't realize it, you got low self-esteem!"
The corners of Qiao Dong Ying's mouth twitched: "Just because I have low self-esteem, you want to break up with me?"
The boy said: "This is not the main reason. The key factor is your character. It's very boring to be with you. Do you understand? We haven't been together for a long time anyway, so let's get together peacefully and break up peacefully!"
This lad and Wu Yi had one thing in common. They were both overseas Chinese and grew up abroad. And their personalities and thoughts were relatively open.
This aspect of them was what attract Qiao Dong Ying the most.
But the first one was a piece of sh*t and the second one stepped on sh*t too!
Qiao Dong Ying smiled: "Then scram out of here!"
Hearing this, the boy frowned. In the end, he didn't say anything and turned away.
Once he was far away, Qiao Dong Ying slowly squatted down and wrapped her hands around her knees.
The boy hit the weakness she cared about most. She did have low self-esteem.
Whether it was Wu Yi or this boy, she didn't actually like them that much. It was just that she hope to draw confidence and wanton attitude towards life from them.
She thought that as long as she was with them, she could become just like them.
In fact, she had been deceiving herself.
She suddenly wanted to go home.
But her grandmother, grandfather, and Younger Sister Da Qiao were over at the capital's side. It was too far away. She didn't want to scare them by suddenly popping up there.
So she chose to go back to Yunlai Town to find little chubby Shen Tian You who called her 'Elder Sister Ying' since little.
She thought she would find Shen Tian You chubbier. To her surprise, she saw a tall and burly boy. He was a bit sturdy, so chubby had nothing to do with him.
Qiao Dong Ying sized him up and down in amazement: "Tian You, why have you lost so much weight?"
Shen Tian You rubbed his ears and grinned, "Didn't you tell me to lose weight?"
Qiao Dong Ying was stunned for a while. It took a while for her to remember that when she met him last year, she seemed to have mentioned this to him.
It was just that she didn't expect him to take it seriously, let alone that he actually accomplished it!
Qiao Dong Ying raised her hand and jollily patted his shoulder: "Not bad. You look like a handsome boy now. Keep it up!"
Shen Tian You stared at her, "Okay, I will keep it!"
Over the past year, he had been running every day in order to lose weight. Though his legs occasionally cramped because of tiredness, he never thought of giving up.
As long as Elder Sister Ying said it, he will keep it in his heart and put it into action!
It was just Elder Sister Ying didn't seems to... care?
Qiao Dong Ying really didn't care much.
She latched on Shen Tian You's hand and declared, "Come, stinky boy. Accompany your elder sister Ying for a drink!"
Of course she drank, he watched. Once she was drunk, he was responsible for taking her home.
After all, Tian You wasn't an adult yet. So she will never harm people she was close to.
Shen Tian You didn't refuse and let her pull him away.
The two came to a small restaurant.
Qiao Dong Ying ordered a few dishes and then asked the boss to serve a few bottles of beer and a bottle of Erguotou.
Seeing Ergoutou, Shen Tian You frowned again: "Elder Sister Ying, are you in a bad mood? If there is anything, just tell me. Don't drink this Ergoutou."
As he said that, he was about to return Erguotou to the boss. However, Qiao Dong Ying snatched it first.
Qiao Dong Ying grabbed Erguotou, poured herself a cup, and downed it, "Refreshing!"
In fact, she didn't feel refreshed at all. She didn't like drinking at all.
This sip of strong drink made her cough again and again. Tears came down in the end.
Shen Tian You hurriedly sat next to her and patted her back: "Elder Sister Ying, if you want to drink, don't drink so much at once. It's easy to choke!"
Qiao Dong Ying's sight were blurred. A wry smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Do you think I'm useless too?"
Shen Tian You was stunned for a moment. Then he shook his head and replied, "No, I think Elder Sister Ying is great!"
Qiao Dong Ying thought he was comforting herself. The comfort of 'great' didn't help much.
If a person had no merit, people would use vague words like 'great' to compliment that person.
Then, she stopped talking. Afterward, the alcohol was downed one after another.
Apart from choking at the beginning, she never choked afterward.
Shen Tian You started to persuade, but gradually closed his mouth.
After drinking too much, Qiao Dong Ying's brain slowly became muddled. Her words became more and more: "Tian You, why did you recognize me as Boss back then?"
Shen Tian You upright the bottle she knocked down and replied, "Because I think Elder Sister Ying is cool."
"Cool?" Qiao Dong Ying seemed to have heard a funny joke, "Then you were deceived by my appearance. I'm not cool at all!"
Shen Tian You didn't answer her. In his heart, his elder sister Ying was always the coolest person.
Qiao Dong Ying didn't need him to answer. She rambled on. In the end, she seemed to be truly drunk.
She fell on Shen Tian You and said in a voice as if she was about to cry, "I think I'm a failure. Nobody likes me."
After speaking, she tilted her head and soon fell asleep.
Shen Tian You called the boss, paid the money, and picked up Elder Sister Ying.
After walking out of the small restaurant, he looked down at Qiao Dong Ying and whispered, "Elder Sister Ying, my name is 'Nobody'."
The author has something to say: Whether it is Qiao Dong Ying or Qiao Dong He, they will grow up~
