"Huh?" Chi Yeche raised his eyebrows when he found that Qiao Ximo didn't reply to him for a long time.

"There's just one word that seems a bit off, and I can't understand it."

Chi Yeche walked to sit next to Qiao Ximo, leaned over and looked over: "Which one?"

The distance between the two was too close, which made Qiao Ximo a little nervous. He pointed at a word with a slightly trembling finger: "This..."

"limerance." Chi Yeche read it lightly. His pronunciation was very standard, and his deep voice read English with a unique sexiness. "Addicted."

"Ah?" Qiao Ximo recovered from Chi Yeche's English sentence just now.

"I said the word in the sense of obsessed."

"Oh... I usually use indulge with others. I have never used this before, so I don't know." Qiao Ximo explained because she was afraid that Chi Yeche would think too much. Even if Qiao Qingqing lives abroad, she shouldn't know all the words, right?

"If you like reading, take the book back and let's go."

"Oh, okay." Qiao Ximo looked up and realized that it was already half past four. The sun was not as bright as before, but a little yellowish.

Putting the book into his bag, Qiao Ximo and Chi Yeche left the office together.

Naturally, the way down is from the elevator you came up from.

Qiao Ximo felt uncomfortable at the thought of going down from the 101st floor again.

After getting on the elevator, Qiao Ximo leaned in a corner and closed his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Chi Yeche asked, noticing that Qiao Ximo looked a little weird.

"No...it's nothing. I just don't like being in the elevator..."

"Are you afraid of heights?"

"Um……"

Hearing the "ding" sound of the elevator door opening, Qiao Ximo finally ended the torture and walked out of the elevator as if running away.

Fang Ye was already waiting in the car in the underground parking lot dedicated to Chi Yeche.

Drove to a Japanese restaurant.

The car was parked at the back door of the restaurant. It was very secluded and no one would be able to come in.

The manager led the two people to the door of a private room.

"Mr. Tang is already waiting inside."

Qiao Ximo was slightly stunned when he heard the manager's words. It's not just the two of them eating tonight, but someone else?

Chi Yeche walked in, followed closely by Qiao Ximo.

I saw a man already sitting in the private room. He was about the same age as Chi Yeche. He was in a suit and leather shoes. His overall popularity was extraordinary. He was also a handsome guy who could rival Chi Yeche in appearance. However, he was not as cold as Chi Yeche. He looked

He is a relatively gentle person.

"Che, you're here."

When he saw Chi Yeche, the man slightly raised his lips, and when he saw a young girl following Chi Yeche, the man was slightly stunned: "She is?"

Chi Yeche did not answer the man's question but sat down directly: "When did you come back?"

"It's noon today," the man replied.

Chi Yeche noticed that Qiao Ximo did not sit down but stood behind him, and said softly: "Sit here."

"Oh..." Qiao Ximo responded submissively and sat down on the seat next to Chi Yeche, his head always lowered.

Just now, when the man asked Chi Yeche who she was, her heart skipped a beat. She was afraid of hearing words like "She's just a QF" from Chi Yeche, but fortunately, Chi Yeche didn't answer.

But even if Chi Yeche doesn't answer, this man can probably guess what kind of existence she is next to Chi Yeche...

Indeed, the man guessed who Qiao Ximo was, but the look he looked at Qiao Ximo was not the contempt she imagined, but a kind of pity.

Sure enough... Che still hasn't given up after so many years. He always thinks about how to take revenge on Qiao Daye. When Chi Yeche told him his plan when they were drinking together that day, he advised him not to do it. After all, he did something wrong back then.

The person responsible was Qiao Daye, and his daughter had done nothing wrong. However, when Chi Yeche yelled at him with scarlet eyes that Ruoning had done something wrong, he was unable to answer...

"I didn't expect Che to bring someone here. I only ordered what he and I like to eat. I'll ask someone to order whatever you want."

Qiao Ximo timidly raised his head and looked at the man diagonally across from him, and found that there was no disdain in his eyes as expected but a slight smile at the corner of his mouth. He didn't know why Qiao Ximo's heart tightened even more.

."I don't care, you don't need to worry about me..."

There was still a faint smile on the corner of the man's mouth, very gentle: "Then if you can't get used to it, you can order something else later. My name is Tang Yunchen. What about you?"

"My name is Qiao..." Ximo and Qiao Ximo had just spoken, but Qiao Ximo immediately held back: "My name is Qiao Qingqing."

"This name doesn't seem to suit you very well."

Tang Yunchen's words shocked Qiao Ximo's heart. She couldn't help but stare at Tang Yunchen with wide eyes. What did he mean by his words? Did he know that she was not Qiao Qingqing?

I didn't expect Qiao Ximo's reaction to be so big. Tang Yunchen was stunned for a moment, smiled awkwardly and continued: "I just think people with this name should be very lively. You seem to be a little... too quiet." Tang Yunchen originally wanted to say.

She seemed a little too sad, and she felt that the words were not appropriate so she changed her words. Maybe she was indeed a very lively girl before, but now something like this happened...

Hearing that Tang Yunchen meant this, Qiao Ximo finally felt relieved and smiled slightly at Tang Yunchen and said, "I also feel that this name is not particularly suitable for me."

Chi Yeche on the side couldn't help but look gloomy when he saw that Tang Yunchen and Qiao Ximo seemed to be chatting particularly speculatively. Although he didn't speak, the expression on his face said everything.

People like Tang Yunchen who know how to observe words and emotions will naturally not be confused, so they stopped talking to Qiao Ximo from then on.

Everyone was silent while eating, and there was only the occasional crisp sound of the knife and fork hitting the plate in the private room.

A ringtone broke the silence in the private room. Tang Yunchen took out his mobile phone and looked at the caller ID before answering the call.

"Hey!!! Brother!!!!"

Although Qiao Ximo could hear the voice of a girl on the other end of the phone through the phone.

"My little dear, what's wrong with you?"

The voice on the other end of the phone became quieter: "Brother, why didn't you tell me when you came back? Where are you now?"

"Che and I ate at the Japanese restaurant we often went to before." Tang Yunchen replied.

"Wait for me over there! I'll be there right away!" The girl on the other end of the phone said and hung up.

Tang Yunchen put the phone aside and shook his head helplessly. "That little girl is clamoring to come over. She probably misses my brother."

"You're back, haven't you gone home yet?"

Tang Yunchen shook his head, picked up his chopsticks and continued eating: "When I go back, grandpa will urge me to go on a blind date. It's so terrible."
