C253 A Wholesale Gift

Hearing his sister's words, Qiao Lin felt complicated and did not know what to say for a moment.

However, he still could not believe his father's decision, "So he called me back today to tell me about this?"

Qiao Yan nodded, "Of course, but that's also part of it. On the other hand, I also hope that you can come home for the New Year. In the early years, he put all his energy into work and left you at home, ignoring you. Later on, when you grew up, you started to ostracize him and even wanted to leave this house. Ever since you left the Qiao family, our family had not eaten properly, so Dad personally picked you up this time."

"Answer?" Remembering the way his father had "picked" him up, Qiao Lin felt that if he had been a passer-by, he would have called the police.

Not long after he got off the bus, he went to the roadside to wait for a taxi to take him to the Qin family, but the taxi didn't come. He waited until he saw Qiao Zhicheng's car, and because he recognized his father's car, he deliberately avoided it. As a result, three bodyguards got out of the car, some stopped him, some grabbed his luggage, and he was caught without even having a chance to resist.

But after the lesson from five years ago, he was too lazy to fight back against his father's bodyguards. He could fight with a few hooligans, but if he had to fight with bodyguards who knew martial arts, he would be at a disadvantage.

Qiao Yan seemed to have thought of what her father had done again and had a headache, "Did he get his bodyguards to catch you again?"

Qiao Lin nodded, "Forget it, it's not the first time he's done this anyway. Since he doesn't object to the matter between me and Qin Lang, then Qin Lang and I will stay here tonight and leave after tomorrow's reunion dinner."

Qiao Lin did not bother about whether his father's words were trustworthy or not. He would just leave after dinner tomorrow.

"Brother, are you leaving tomorrow?" Qiao Yan seemed to be a little disappointed, "The day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Why don't you stay at home and celebrate the New Year before leaving?"

"No, Qin Lang's mother and sister are back. We had agreed to have dinner together tonight, but my father suddenly caught me and brought me back. I had no choice but to break our promise. Tomorrow, I will ask Qin Lang to accompany me back to apologize." Speaking of this, Qiao Lin felt a little guilty. Previously, Qin Lang had told him on the phone that his entire family was waiting for him to have a meal together. His sister, Qin Shi, had even brought her boyfriend back with her. In the end, the whole family had been waiting for him, but he had disappeared.

"Oh ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Qiao Yan looked at Qiao Lin and Qin Lang meaningfully, "So Brother is going to meet Qin's parents to discuss marriage matters. It seems like the two of you can really get married now. Qin's visit this time is equivalent to meeting his parents, and Dad has agreed to it. After Brother meets the parents of the Qin family, can we set a time to discuss the marriage?"

Qiao Lin's face turned red at her words, "What do you mean by meeting his parents and getting married? I haven't even dated him yet, and this time I'm going to his house as a friend, don't talk nonsense."

In fact, Qiao Lin really hoped that his relationship with Qin Lang would be understood by Qin Lang's mother as soon as possible. Now that even his father no longer opposed them, if Qin Lang's mother could understand their relationship, they would have nothing to worry about.

Qin Lang patted his shoulder lightly, "Actually, Qiao Yan is right. This time, I brought you back with the purpose of meeting your parents. Previously, I wanted you to come home with me as a friend, but what happened today reminded me of something. I think it's better to let my mother understand this as soon as possible. I don't want something like this to happen to me again."

"But..." Qiao Lin was worried, "What if your mother can't accept it?"

"Have you forgotten what I told you before? Even if I have to kneel and break my leg, I will beg her to agree. In short, don't worry, no matter what happens, I won't leave you."

"Ah, I can't do it anymore." Qiao Yan suddenly screamed, "I don't want to be forced by the two of you to show off your affection. And Qin, I thought you were good at acting, but it turns out that your skill in flirting with men is also maxed out. No wonder my brother is so loyal to you."

"What loyalty? You only know how to talk nonsense all day long." Qiao Lin glared at Qiao Yan.

"Hahaha," Qiao Yan laughed even more happily, "Look at how shy my brother is."

Because she was laughing too much, her left cheek began to ache again.

Thinking of the slap she had received from her mother just now, Qiao Yan covered her face and her smile gradually disappeared.

"Qiao Yan, don't go against your mother in the future. It doesn't matter if she accepts me or not. I treat you as my sister, and you can just treat me as your brother. You don't have to fight with her mother and daughter because of me." Actually, this was also one of the reasons why Qiao Lin did not want to return to the Qiao family. As soon as he appeared, Wu Huanran was unhappy and made a fuss about it. In the end, he made everyone unhappy, so it was good for everyone that he did not come back.

Qiao Yan, on the other hand, was a stubborn person. She had always hoped that he would be able to integrate into this family, and the key to that was her mother. So over the years, Qiao Yan had persuaded her mother more than once not to blame her hatred for Qiao Lin's mother on Qiao Lin, neither to accept him nor to hurt him.

However, his mother would not listen to him. She always felt that Qiao Lin's appearance was to avenge his mother, who had fled in defeat all those years ago. She felt that Qiao Lin wanted to monopolize the property of the Qiao family and then chase them out of the house.

"Sigh." Qiao Yan sighed, "I know, brother."

Qiao Yan tried her best, but found that all her efforts were in vain, so she decided to give up. Her brother was no longer a child, so she did not have to worry about what her mother would do to him. Besides, her mother was indeed a victim of what happened back then, so there was no need to force her.

However, she hoped that her mother would not be so paranoid and suspicious anymore. This would do no good to anyone.

"Your face still hurts, right? Remember to apply a cold compress after dinner later." With that, Qiao Lin stood up and walked to the living room, opening the suitcase beside the sofa.

Qin Lang and Qiao Yan followed him out of curiosity.

Qiao Lin took out a wooden box from his suitcase.

Qin Lang immediately knew what it was when he saw the box.

"This is for you. In fact, I wanted to give it to you a few months ago, but I never found the chance."

Qiao Yan took the box and opened it. It was a wooden bracelet.

Three months ago, when he was filming the outdoor scene near the ancient town, he made a total of four bracelets. One was for himself, and the other two were for Qin Lang and Qin Shu. Naturally, he did not forget his sister.

Since he had never had the chance to give it to Qiao Yan, he had kept it in the compartment of his suitcase. Now that he had been caught, he could give it to her.

Qiao Yan had already noticed that her brother and Qin Lang's bracelets were the same. Since she was a girl, her bracelets were slightly smaller, but the three of them had the same style.

After thanking her brother, Qiao Yan extended her arm in front of the two of them, "Brother, are you having another laziness attack and too lazy to pick your present? Look, all three of us have the same bracelet. Where did you buy it from? If we go out, people will definitely suspect that we're in a love triangle."
