C10

He did not even notice the tears that came from the woman beneath her after she had shouted that name.

When Qiao Xiaoxiao woke up, Mu Zehao had already left. She covered her chest and couldn't help but remember the name he blurted out. How ironic, on the night of her wedding, her husband called out another woman's name.

She sat on the bed in a daze until noon, then simply finished her lunch and went upstairs.

"Xiao Qi." She sat on the bed and called her friend.

"Why is it Xiao Xiao?" Ye Xiaoqi asked out of concern when he heard Xiao Xiao's voice on the phone.

"What should we do, Xiao Qi? I seem to fall in love with that man." But he doesn't love me. Qiao Xiaoxiao could no longer control her emotions and cried on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Qi, can I go look for you?" Right now, she wanted to leave this place. She only wanted to leave this place temporarily.

"Alright, no problem. My brother just happens to be coming back. I'll get him to pick you up along the way." Ye Xiaoqi agreed immediately, "Tell me the address."

Qiao Xiaoxiao told her friend her address and hung up. Ye Xiaoqi immediately called his brother.

"Brother, didn't you want to come home?" Ye Xiaoqi called his brother without delay.

"What's wrong?"

Ye Minglin asked his only sister in a gentle tone. If they didn't know that this was him, the people beside them would have suspected that he was a famous devil lawyer in the legal field. It was because this man had never lost in court that his opponent was powerless to counterattack.

"Do you still remember Xiao Xiao? "She always came to my house to play when she was young. Go and help me bring her over, and I'll give her the address. She's in a bad mood, so I don't want her to come by herself." Ye Xiaoqi knew that his brother would definitely not reject him.

"Alright, alright, I got it. Send me the address and contact her when I get there." When he was young, his father worked for Mrs Qiao, and Qiao Family's only daughter became good friends with his sister. From time to time, she would come to the house to play, but later on, when he heard the news that Uncle Qiao committed suicide because of bankruptcy, he was also stunned for a moment. He couldn't help but feel pity and didn't see that girl play in his house again.

Seeing the address his sister sent him, Ye Minglin drove in that direction.

At this moment, Qiao Xiaoxiao went into the bathroom to clean up after she called Xiao Qi. Her eyes were still red. Although she had used a simple cosmetic to cover herself, it was still obvious.

Looking at the unfamiliar phone call, she remembered that Xiao Qi told her brother to come and pick her up, so she answered.

"Hello, hello." Hearing the girl on the phone, Ye Minglin was stunned for a moment. That nasal voice was obviously the same as crying, but it quickly recovered his expression.

"Hello, I'm Ye Minglin. Xiao Qi is my sister. I'm here to pick you up." He briefly explained the purpose of his call.

"Ok, wait a moment, Big Brother Ye. I'll be right out." She hung up the phone and hurried downstairs with her bag. Her impression of Big Brother Ye himself was still rather shallow, because every time she went to play with Xiao Xiao, she would listen to her brother when he was young and tell her how amazing he was. Every day he was in class, and when he grew up, he would become busy with work every day, so she had no idea what a man looked like.

"Sister-in-Law Chen, you don't need to bring me for dinner. I'm going out." She quickly explained that she didn't want Sister-in-Law Chen to see her red eyes and her nasal tone. She also didn't want others to wait for her for too long.

"Yes ma'am." Sister-in-Law Chen also noticed with her sharp eyes that Qiao Xiaoxiao's eyes seemed to have traces of tears. Her nasal tone was also very serious, but she still pretended that she didn't see anything.

"Big Brother Ye!" She was glad there was no other car outside. Ye Minglin gave her a very serious feeling as he leaned against the car, but his handsome face did not match his temperament.

"Qiao Xiaoxiao?" He asked uncertainly. Although he had no impression of this woman, she was still quite different from when she was young.

"It's me." She tried her best to smile as she spoke to the man in front of her.

"Let's get in the car. Xiao Qi should be worried about waiting at home." He opened the car door for his sister's friend and looked at Qiao Xiaoxiao's polite smile. His impression of her became better and his tone became a lot gentler. He then turned around and drove away.

He couldn't explain why he was so angry, it was obvious that he wanted to come back and see that woman. Yesterday, he saw that she was in a bad mood and he blurted out another person's name at night, but he didn't expect that he would see her go home in another man's car.

"Young Master, you're back." Sister-in-Law Chen looked at her young master's angry expression with keen eyes.

"She went out?" He saw her get into someone else's car with his own eyes.

"Madame went out. Her eyes were still red. I don't know where she went." Sister-in-Law Chen was so smart that she didn't even finish her sentence. She looked at her young master's frowning brow and knew that he knew what was going on. He had also tactfully decided to do his own thing.

In the car, Qiao Xiaoxiao and Ye Minglin didn't know what to say. The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but Ye Minglin was the first to break the awkward silence.

"You're not the same as when you were a kid." Ye Minglin took the time to look at the woman beside him as he drove.

"Big Brother Ye met me when I was young?" As expected, the atmosphere in the car became lively. Qiao Xiaoxiao didn't expect that Big Brother Ye had met her when she was young. She clearly had not seen him once.

"Every time I watch you and Xiao Qi play from a distance, I always hear Xiao Qi talk about how amazing her friend is." He thought of his sister and couldn't help but smile.

"No wonder I had no impression of Big Brother Ye when he was young. Big Brother Ye is also very powerful now. I heard that you are very famous in the legal field." Qiao Xiaoxiao also listened to Xiao Qi talk about her brother's strength every day.

"Famous devil." He could not help but laugh at himself as the atmosphere became more lively. Seeing that the girl beside him did not feel depressed like before, and even laughed, he felt a bit more at ease.

They talked about Ye Xiaoqi all the way from childhood to childhood, including Xiao Qi's embarrassing events and his legal encounters, and Qiao Xiaoxiao really had forgotten for the moment how unhappy she had been at the time.

"Big Brother Ye, thank you. I'm feeling much better now." She sincerely thanked the man beside her.

"As long as you're in a good mood." He pursed his lips. His little sister should be very satisfied.
