MTL - I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law-Chapter 561 life for life
Chapter 561 One life for another
The general meeting of shareholders is officially over.
Everyone stood up, and after the new president pushed the old chairman out, everyone followed out one after another. Only Shao Jingmoan sat quietly in his seat, never getting up to leave.
"Boss!"
Dou Ying stepped forward and took the initiative to take the wheelchair pusher from Qiao Qiao: "Let me push the old chairman."
Qiao Qiao moved half a step to the side, leaving the place for Dou Ying: "This title is not bad."
Dou Ying looked at Qiao Qiao and smiled subtly.
Qiao Qiao said, "Let's go."
Dou Ying nodded, and just as she was about to push the wheelchair, Mr. Qiao turned around and called, "Oh, oh."
Qiao Qiao took two steps forward, went to Mr. Qiao, knelt down and asked, "What's wrong, Grandpa?"
Old Man Qiao pointed to the back without saying anything, but Qiao Qiao understood what it meant at a glance.
She shook her head and said softly, "I won't go."
Grandpa Qiao had a loving face: "Instead of waiting until the downstairs to regret it, and then rushing to catch up and miss it, it's better to meet him when it's right now. Grandpa is waiting for you downstairs."
Qiao's pretty bones stuck in her throat: "Grandpa..."
After watching Dou Ying push old man Qiao away, Qiao Qiao stood quietly for a while before turning back to the meeting room.
Jing Cheng and an assistant stood at the door.
Obviously, Shao Jingmo was still inside.
Jingcheng didn't stop Qiao Qiao. When Qiao Qiao turned back, he opened the door for Qiao Qiao. As usual, he made a gesture of stretching toward Qiao Qiao: "Miss, please come in."
Qiao Qiao glanced at Jing Cheng: "I'm sorry."
Jingcheng had a sullen face without any emotion: "Miss shouldn't have said these three words to me."
Qiao Qiao took a deep breath, with a smile on her face, without saying anything, and stepped into the meeting room.
The windows in the huge conference room are bright and clean. Just a few minutes ago, it was filled with the generals and veterans of the entire company.
Now, only Shao Jingmo is left, and he sits quietly in his original position.
Qiao Qiao approached behind him, calling out in a soft voice: "Little uncle."
Shao Jingmo raised his hand to fasten the buttons on his belly, and was about to stand up, when Qiao Qiao immediately put her hands on his broad shoulders: "I'll just say a few words."
Shao Jingmo did not move.
Qiao Qiao went around and sat down opposite him, she raised her eyes to look at him quietly for a moment, and said, "Thank you little uncle for paving the way for me, and in just a few months, I became the new president of Deep Blue Group. "
Shao Jingmo looked indifferent: "Sit in this position and sit in this position are two concepts, I hope you will always remember it clearly."
"Yes." Qiao Qiao said seriously: "I will keep in mind everything my little uncle teaches. From now on, I will be with Deep Blue Group, so little uncle can rest assured."
Shao Jingmo picked up the phone on the table.
Qiao Qiao stopped him again: "Little uncle, can you sit down for a few more minutes?"
Shao Jingmo rubbed his fingertips on the frame of the phone: "Isn't there only a few words?"
A look of loneliness flashed in Qiao Qiao's eyes, it was too fast to be noticed, she said calmly: "At any rate, we are also a husband and wife, we will say goodbye today, and we don't know when we will meet again next time."
Shao Jingmo's tone was very light: "From now on, you and I will each face a new life. Whether we meet again is not that important."
Qiao Qiao looked into his eyes, those dark and deep eyes were unfathomable, and no one could ever guess what was going on in his heart.
She slowly sat up straight, with her abdomen close to the edge of the conference table: "Actually, I know..."
Shao Jingmo seemed to know what she was going to say, and suddenly interrupted her: "I should go."
After speaking, he stood up, raised his hand to fasten the buttons on his belly, removed the seat and turned to leave.
He was too decisive.
It seems that she has never loved her. In this relationship, she has always been wishful thinking.
This is probably the result he wants to see the most.
But Qiao Qiao just didn't want to do what he wanted, so when Shao Jingmo turned to leave, she suddenly stood up and said, "Shao Jingmo, you don't love me if you say you don't love me, that's fine; if you say you marry someone else, that's fine; but you If you want to draw a clear line with me, it will be impossible in this life."
Shao Jingmo did not stop.
Qiao Qiao stared at his back leaving indifferently, and said loudly: "I'm pregnant."
Short four words, like a heavy pounding on the ground, with a bang, the mountains shook and the ground shook.
Shao Jingmo stopped suddenly, turned around, and asked her coldly, "What did you say?"
Qiao Qiao's face remained unchanged, and she boldly looked at him directly: "I'm pregnant, and I'm connected by blood. Do you think we can completely draw a line between us?"
Shao Jingmo didn't say anything, and turned back directly.
Seeing him come back, Qiao Qiao smiled smugly, but soon, she couldn't laugh anymore, Shao Jingmo grabbed her wrist: "Then go to the hospital for an examination now."
When Qiao Qiao heard that he said to check now, her face was full of resistance: "I just checked, there is no need to check a second time."
Shao Jingmo asked her calmly: "Where's the checklist?"
Qiao Qiao: "At home."
In the past few days, she has hardly seen any slight ups and downs of emotions on Shao Jingmo's face. He always has a cold face, which is even worse for her.
She felt uncomfortable, and wanted to make him uncomfortable, but she couldn't bear it.
After thinking about it, she suddenly came up with this idea. Even though she knew the consequences of lying, she still wanted to take the risk.
And now Shao Jingmo's reaction is repeatedly hovering between belief and disbelief.
His complexion looked extremely bad.
It seems that I have encountered the most difficult thing, and there is no surprise or happiness at all.
Qiao Qiao suddenly realized that even if she is really pregnant now, for Shao Jingmo, it is not something that can make him change his mind.
So when Shao Jingmo wanted to confirm with her for the third time, Qiao Qiao suddenly pulled the corners of her lips into a smile, and said to him, "I'm pregnant, but it's not yours."
Shao Jingmo's pupils were deep, staring at her firmly.
Qiao Qiao was not afraid of his eyes, and raised her voice: "I officially took over the Deep Blue Group today. The whole world celebrates it. I am very happy, so I made a child myself to celebrate."
Shao Jingmo's eyes moved down and stayed on her flat belly.
The way he looked at her lower abdomen made her feel a little uncomfortable: "We are just divorced, and we are not enemies. I just want to say a few more words. You are too indifferent to me."
Shao Jingmo's face changed a little: "This kind of joke is not allowed."
Qiao Qiao is rebellious by nature, especially when she heard what he said, she felt very unconvinced: "We're both divorced, why do you care what I'm joking about?"
Shao Jingmo ignored her dissatisfaction, returned to the original seat, opened the chair and sat down: "Isn't there still something to say, let's talk, I'm in a hurry, Lulu is waiting for me to go back."
"You two have a good relationship." Qiao Qiao also sat down again.
Shao Jingmo's tone softened a bit: "Of course."
Qiao Qiao couldn't see his double-standard attitude, and she was cold to her. When Wen Lu was mentioned, not only her face softened, but her tone was so gentle.
She called him by first and last name: "Shao Jingmo, you don't have to always make me unhappy on purpose. In fact, I don't care as much as you think. It's only been a few months. Do you think I love you so much? It's just for fun. "
It was the first time she discovered that love and killing each other was very appropriate to describe her and Shao Jingmo.
After finishing speaking, she still did not forget to show Shao Jingmo a somewhat provocative look, which conveyed the meaning: don't give in too much.
Shao Jingmo didn't care about her provocation: "You're right, it's just for fun, so you forcefully leave what I want to say, these words?"
Qiao Qiao smiled jokingly: "Yes, insulting you."
Shao Jingmo's eyes were not turbulent: "Is there any more? You can insult enough at once, but there will be no such opportunity in the future."
The smile on the corner of Qiao Qiao's mouth faded: "Shao Jingmo..."
Shao Jingmo: "Huh?"
Qiao Qiao stood up slowly, put her hands on the table, and leaned over to look at him: "Can you make another choice?"
Shao Jingmo asked her: "What choice? For example?"
Qiao Qiao word by word: "Firmly choose me."
Shao Jingmo suddenly smiled: "Is this also a new way for you to insult me?"
Qiao Qiao drew her breath and sat down again: "Yes, it's a pity you weren't fooled."
Her expression was full of loneliness, Shao Jingmo couldn't see it, but he chose to ignore it, or didn't care.
Qiao Qiao quickly adjusted her emotions, and when she looked up at him again, her eyes were clear: "I have nothing to say, little uncle, you can go."
Shao Jingmo stared at her for a moment, then stood up: "Take care of yourself."
Qiao Qiao nodded.
Shao Jingmo turned and left.
Qiao Qiao sat without moving. Seeing his figure that was getting farther and farther away was about to disappear before her eyes, she suddenly said: "If it were me, I would firmly choose you."
I don't know if Shao Jingmo heard her words.
The doorway was empty, and he was nowhere to be seen.
-
night.
Qiao Qiao returned home.
Just took office today, and busyness is indispensable. Since she personally sent grandpa back to Qiao's house in the morning, she has been busy when she returned to the company.
Dou Ying and Song Yun became her right and left assistants, assisting her in all the things she had to do after sitting in this position.
When she got home, even if she was very tired, she would still put on the mask forcibly, and be a good daughter in front of Qiao's father and mother.
She stepped into the hall, and a crisp voice came—
"Sister Qiaoqiao."
Qiao Qiao raised her eyes to look in the direction of the voice, Lin Xingruo was running towards her.
"Sister Qiao Qiao, congratulations." Lin Xingruo hugged Qiao Qiao and sincerely congratulated her.
Qiao Qiao remained motionless, letting Lin Xingruo hug her for a while before saying, "Thank you."
Lin Xingruo let go of Qiao Qiao, and asked her with a smile on his face: "I just took office today, how do you feel? Is being the president hard?"
Qiao Qiao replied: "It's okay."
"Seeing how tired you look, I don't believe what you said." Lin Xingruo took the initiative to hold Qiao Qiao's arm, and the two walked in together.
Qiao Qiao asked her, "When did you arrive?"
Lin Xingruo: "Around five o'clock, uncle came to pick me up, didn't I send you a WeChat message?"
Qiao Qiao took out her mobile phone: "Really, I was too busy to look at it."
Lin Xingruo curled his lips: "Then I will forcefully forgive you."
Qiao Qiao put the phone back in her bag again, she turned her head to look at Lin Xingruo, although her tone was not pleasant, but that face was so bright and full of vigor, she seemed to see herself before.
Before she was so heartless and carefree.
Lin Xingruo noticed that Qiao Qiao was looking at her, turned her head and said, "Actually, I know you don't like me very much, this time you took the initiative to call me to Xingzhou, I think it's more than just wanting me to envy you. You must have other things about the Qiao family business, anyway, you are promising now, and I will flatter you in the future, so tell me what you want."
Qiao Qiao opened her mouth, and when she wanted to say something, Mother Qiao came over: "Hey, Xingruo, it's time to eat."
Qiao Qiao responded, "Understood."
Lin Xingruo raised his voice: "Auntie is here."
The atmosphere at the dinner table tonight was very good. Lin Xingruo talked a little more, and Qiao Qiao's condition was almost visible to the naked eye.
Mother Qiao was very pleased, and so was Father Qiao, but Mr. Qiao was always unhappy.
Especially during the meal, Lin Xingruo asked unintentionally: "Will little uncle come back to live in the future?"
About Shao Jingmo's move away, Lin Xingruo learned something from Qiao's mother in the afternoon.
She didn't know the details, so she suddenly asked this question at the dinner table.
Master Qiao looked at Qiao Qiao, waiting for her to answer.
The smile on Qiao Qiao's face faded a little, and she replied, "I won't move back."
Lin Xingruo observed everyone's expressions and realized that he shouldn't ask this question. After Qiao Qiao answered her, he wisely didn't ask again.
After dinner.
Qiao Qiao called Lin Xingruo to her room, she locked the door, and took Lin Xingruo to sit on the terrace.
Lin Xingruo held a plate of fruit in his hand, and raised his voice to ask Qiao Qiao, "What do you want to tell me? Just now when my aunt came over, you stopped talking, and it made me feel itchy to eat."
Qiao Qiao sat down on the chair next to Lin Xingruo: "Actually, it's fine."
Lin Xingruo ate a piece of apple, his cheeks puffed up, and he said indistinctly, "Impossible."
Qiao Qiao looked at the night in the distance, and said softly, "Xingruo, I mean if, if one day I suddenly disappear and no one can find me, will you take care of my grandpa and my parents instead of me?" ?”
Lin Xingruo's agitated cheeks slowly stopped, and he looked at Qiao Qiao in disbelief: "Cousin, what are you talking about?"
Qiao Qiao turned her head: "I just said, if it's not true, why are you so nervous."
Lin Xingruo's face was serious: "You don't come here, any normal person would say this for no reason."
Qiao Qiao sneered suddenly: "Why do you take it seriously?"
Lin Xingruo put down the fruit plate, his expression still serious: "You better explain what happened."
The casual smile on Qiao Qiao's face disappeared, she lowered her eyes, and said softly: "I love someone, and I will choose him unswervingly, life or death."
Lin Xingruo looked puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Qiao Qiao took an apple from the fruit plate in front of Lin Xingruo, took a bite, and said, "If one day I'm really gone, I hope you can take care of my parents and grandpa for me."
"You're crazy! Qiao Qiao, how could you say such crazy words!" Lin Xingruo stood up anxiously.
Qiao Qiao raised her eyes: "Sit down."
Lin Xingruo's complexion is not very good: "You'd better explain what's going on first."
Qiao Qiao shook her head: "I don't know what to say, I just know what to do next, and I hope you will keep the words I told you tonight in your heart."
Lin Xingruo sat down slowly, and asked intently, "Where are you going?"
Qiao Qiao turned her head, the night wind blew her bangs, she put her hands behind her ears: "On my birthday, a mail ship will sail to the high seas."
Bai Chen said that Shao Jingmo and the Bai family would be on that boat that day.
New bet, one life for another.
Exchange Shao Jingmo's life for hers.
