"In the acquisitive society, it's rare for a man to remember his lover. I'm proud to have such a husband, so I don't mind. I really don't mind."

Qin Xiaorou looked pleadingly at Old Mrs. Qiao, "Old Mrs. Qiao, please promise me."

Faced with Qin Xiaorou's pleading eyes, Old Mrs. Qiao could not refuse her.

She let out a long sigh, "Whatever you say, Xiaorou, I promise you, I promise you everything."

...

In the distance, Qiao Shaoting's eyes flashed with disbelief.

For what Qin Xiaorou said, Old Mrs. Qiao did not expect it and neither did Qiao Shaoting.

He didn't expect that at this time, Qin Xiaorou didn't have any resentment. She didn't say bad things about him in front of Old Mrs. Qiao, or accuse him, but instead she spoke for him.

This surprised him.

It shocked him.

And then his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

...

The next day.

Another new day.

For dinner, Qin Xiaorou ate alone as usual.

Though Bai Xiaoru's child was given to her to raise, she was always eating alone, because Old Mrs. Qiao liked the child so much that she often took the child to have meals with her.

While she was eating, a maid suddenly ran over excitedly and said with surprise, "Miss, Mr. Qiao is back!"

Qin Xiaorou was flabbergasted, "Mr. Qiao is back?"

Mr. Qiao was back so early?

Last night, Mr. Qiao came back earlier than usual, but it was close to nine o'clock. Now it was only about six o'clock in the afternoon ...

"Did you see clearly that it was Mr. Qiao who came back?" Qin Xiaorou asked.

The maid nodded hard, "Miss, it's really Mr. Qiao. I saw him clearly."

Qin Xiaorou also got a little excited.

She stood up, "I haven't combed my hair or changed my clothes. I'll go comb my hair and change my clothes."

Qin Xiaorou was about to leave, but after taking two steps, she suddenly stopped and turned back to the maid and said, "When Mr. Qiao comes over, ask him to have dinner first and I'll be right there."

...

Qiao Shaoting came to the dining table.

He saw the rice that had been eaten to a third on the table.

"Where is Mrs. Qiao?" Qiao Shaoting asked the maid.

Naturally, the maid could not say that Qin Xiaorou heard that Qiao Shaoting had returned and had gone to freshen up specially, so she said, "Mrs. Qiao went to the bathroom."

Qiao Shaoting nodded and didn't say anything.

Later Qin Xiaorou came.

She had changed into a dress, her hair shiny and straight, and her face with light makeup.

Although she knew that it did not work.

Even if she dressed up beautifully, she wouldn't draw Qiao Shaoting's attention.

But subconsciously, she still wanted to do so.

She wanted to be beautiful in front of Qiao Shaoting.

"Mr. Qiao, why are you back so early?" Qin Xiaorou pretended to sound natural.

Qiao Shaoting looked at Qin Xiaorou and then said, "I came back to have dinner with you."

Qin Xiaorou was stunned.

She looked at Qiao Shaoting dumbly, as if she had lost her soul.

Qiao Shaoting did not say anything and picked up the chopsticks on the table.

When the maid saw Qin Xiaorou looking at Qiao Shaoting in a daze, she "coughed" hard to remind her.

Qin Xiaorou came to her senses.

Her eyes flashed with happy, complicated, excited emotions.

Mr. Qiao, Mr. Qiao actually accompanied her to have dinner!

Mr. Qiao specially accompanied her to have dinner!

Did she really hear it correctly!

How could Mr. Qiao come back to have dinner with her?

She couldn't believe it!

But it was Mr. Qiao himself who said it!
