Chapter 2043 - 2043 Twins
2043 Twins
He sat on a chair in the living room, supported his chin with one hand, and closed his eyes.
In the morning, Su Zhuoqian entered the room and left with the sleeping Xiao Bao in his arms.
When Xiao Bao woke up, his face was still red. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw that he was in his room. He could not help but shout, “Mommy!”
When he did not see the person he wanted to see, tears welled up in his eyes. Su Zhuoqian’s familiar figure appeared in his blurry vision.
He knew it!
“Su Chengyu, let’s eat.”
There was one word written clearly on his little face. “No.”
Su Zhuoqian adjusted Xiao Bao’s clothes unhurriedly. “Will crying solve the problem?”
“No.” He couldn’t fool Su Zhuoqian.
He sniffled, too lazy to cry.
“Then why do something so futile?”
Xiao Bao pouted. “Mommy won’t appear even if I eat…”
“But eating can fill your stomach.”
Xiao Bao did not want to fill his stomach. He only wanted his mommy.
He followed Su Zhuoqian aggrievedly and went downstairs to sit at the dining table.
The butler and the servants had already prepared lunch. Little Master had slept for a long time.
Xiao Bao picked up his chopsticks and glanced at the dishes on the plate. He began to eat.
Su Zhuoqian’s hand that was holding the chopsticks froze slightly.
The butler also sighed inwardly. Oh no, he was too careless!
Xiao Bao was sorting the food on the plate. First, he picked out the ingredients of different colors and placed them together. He then sorted the meat and vegetables, then started to arrange them according to their length and size.
There were more than ten dishes on the dining table. With what he was doing, he wouldn’t be able to finish in a day.
The butler couldn’t help but complain in his heart. He originally thought that since Doctor Gu had come and Little Master had slept for a long time, he wouldn’t do such a thing when he woke up.
Who knew…
If he had known earlier, he would have made steak for lunch!
“Xiao Bao.” Su Zhuoqian put down his chopsticks.
Xiao Bao continued to arrange the vegetables as if this was the only important thing for him.
“Su Chengyu!” Su Zhuoqian pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek, suppressing his anger.
The butler and everyone else lowered their heads and waited for orders.
Xiao Bao was unmoved.
Su Zhuoqian took out his phone, pulled up a certain page, and placed the screen in front of Xiao Bao.
There was a photo on the phone screen. In the photo, Xiao Bao was sleeping soundly. His little round face was red. Qiao Weiyang was leaning against him, revealing only the side of her face under her messy hair. She was also sleeping soundly.
The photo that was casually taken focused on her. The photo contained an exceptionally gentle and peaceful sense of beauty.
Xiao Bao wanted to continue looking at it, but Su Zhuoqian ruthlessly took his phone away.
The arrogant man raised his chin. “Do you want to eat?”
Xiao Bao was stunned for a moment. He picked up his chopsticks, put a piece of mushroom in his mouth, and chewed it.
“You must keep your word!” He continued to eat.
…
Qiao Weiyang did not know how she got back to her room or how she fell asleep.
She only knew that she had returned to the bed where Xiao Bao slept. She had no dreams at all.
The uncomfortable feeling of a hangover came over her, and her stomach ached.
After washing up, Qiao Weiyang picked up the stomach medicine.
The doorbell rang at the right time.
She opened the door and saw an unfamiliar man standing in front of her. He was wearing a suit and leather shoes.
“Are you Miss Qiao Weiyang?”
“And you are?”
“I’m Mr. Su’s special assistant, Zhou Lang. This is the porridge that Mr. Su asked me to give you.” Zhou Lang handed over an exquisite-looking lunch box.
The meal box came from Liao Ji Porridge Shop, a famous luxury porridge shop in Jingdu City.
Qiao Weiyang took a look and refused directly. “I don’t accept things for no reason.”
“Miss Qiao, this isn’t just Mr. Su’s idea. It’s also Little Master’s idea. If you don’t accept it, I really won’t be able to report back…” Zhou Lang looked at Qiao Weiyang anxiously and pleadingly.
Qiao Weiyang thought of Xiao Bao’s cute face and took it.
Zhou Lang heaved a long sigh of relief.
She closed the door and used a silver chopstick to probe the porridge. One had to be wary of others.
Seeing that there was no problem, she took out the few types of porridge and chose what she liked to eat.
Her uncomfortable stomach was quickly soothed, and a sense of security came over her.
There was another knock on the door.
Qiao Weiyang opened the door. This time, when she saw the person standing at the door, she did not give them a good look.
A gentle expression appeared on Qiao Jierou’s face. “Sister.”
Qiao Weiyang looked at her coldly and closed the door.
“Sister!” Qiao Jierou blocked the door. “Aren’t you going to let me or Grandma in?”
Old Madam Qiao’s old and slightly mean face appeared in front of Qiao Weiyang. There was a terrifying scar on her face, making her look even more unapproachable.
“Qiao Weiyang, am I not even allowed to enter your door now?”
Qiao Weiyang looked at Old Madam Qiao indifferently. “Grandma, if you have anything to say, say it here.”
“Do you remember your engagement?”
“My engagement?” Qiao Weiyang remembered that it was true.
The other party’s surname seemed to be He. His grandfather had arranged a marriage for him a few years ago.
It was said that the He family was quite powerful at that time. They were willing to lower their status and marry into the Qiao family purely because Grandpa had unintentionally saved Old Master He back then.
A mocking smile appeared on Qiao Weiyang’s lips. “Wasn’t this engagement snatched away by Qiao Jierou?”
“Sister, I’ve never wanted to snatch your things.” Qiao Jierou defended herself anxiously. “Grandma came today to ask you to fulfill your engagement with the He family. The He family is already urging you.”
“Jierou is right. Get ready to come back and get married.”
Qiao Weiyang’s mockery became even more obvious. “If I remember correctly, the He family is in dire straits now. I heard that the guy is suffering from a serious illness, right? Back then, Qiao Jierou wanted to snatch the engagement away. Now that she realizes that she’s snatched a hot potato, she wants to return him to me?”
“This is your engagement to begin with. You should come back to fulfill it. Qiao Weiyang, you have to come back to the Qiao family tonight!” Old Madam Qiao’s voice and expression were stern.
“Then go ahead and wait.” Qiao Weiyang’s tone was cold and distant.
Qiao Jierou could snatch the engagement away if she wanted it and return it if she didn’t want it. How could there be such a good thing?
…
Old Madam Qiao walked out angrily.
“Grandma, don’t be angry. Sister is just in a bad mood,” Qiao Jierou comforted her gently.
Old Madam Qiao snorted. “She’s in a bad mood, yet she’s still in the mood to eat the porridge from Liao Ji Porridge Shop?”
As soon as she stood at the door, she saw what Qiao Weiyang was eating in the living room.
She lived such an extravagant life but did not know how to be filial to the elders in the family.
Qiao Jierou smiled and said, “Coincidentally, we can have Liao Ji Porridge Shop since we’re here. Grandma, I’ll treat you to some porridge.”
Old Madam Qiao was very satisfied. Compared to Qiao Weiyang, Qiao Jierou was considerate, generous, and filial. It was really a blessing to have such a granddaughter.
The two of them entered the elegantly decorated but luxurious Liao Ji Porridge Shop together. After queuing for a long time, they found a seat in a corner.
