Chapter 178 Making a Scene Without Reason
Qiao Ning froze and asked with a smile, "Have you met Li Chengyan?"
Ye qing smiled and said, "I've been back for half a month. We had dinner together yesterday."
"Yesterday!" Qiao Ning smiled bitterly.
Thinking of Li Chengyan calling her yesterday and saying that he was not going home for dinner. It turned out that this party was Ye Ziqing.
"What's wrong?" Ye yeqing asked.
Qiao Ning shook his head, looking a little lonely, but soon returned to normal and said, "It's okay. Since Miss Ye is here, come and have a cup of coffee!"
"Thank you, but no need. I have something else to do. I just happened to pass by. I heard from mo qian that you had a flower shop here, so I came to take a look. Since I saw Miss Qiao, I should go too. Next time we get together, I hope you can come with Chengyan." Ye Ziyin smiled.
Qiao Ning nodded and watched as she turned to leave. Suddenly, she thought of something and blurted out, "Miss Ye, when did you come back?"
"Number 16." Ye Ziqing answered with a chuckle.
Qiao Ning's expression slowly stiffened as he watched Ye Ziqing leave.
Ding walked over and said to Qiao Ning, "Sister qiao, you're really amazing. Everyone you know is prettier and sexier. Can you introduce them to me?"
"Your business is everywhere." Xu Meng slapped him and asked him to go to work.
After ding left, Xu Meng frowned at qiao ning and said, "Don't be too sad. It's just a coincidence."
On the 16th, the day their flower shop opened, Lin Zhenqing came to help as a boyfriend. At that time, Qiao Ning was still smiling and said that he was going to pull Li Chengyan over.
Originally, Li Chengyan agreed, but then he received a phone call saying that he had a temporary social engagement and left. Qiao Ning was quite disappointed, but Li Chengyan's social engagements were all hundreds of millions of projects in minutes. How dare they delay? Although Qiao Ning was uncomfortable, he still smiled and watched him leave.
"Don't comfort me. I know what happened," Qiao Ning said bitterly.
Xu Meng said quickly, "Maybe she did it on purpose. She told you this on purpose to provoke you. Look at how she looks today. She's just trying to provoke you. She's just trying to piss you off, make you angry, and have a conflict with Li Chengyan, so that she can have a chance to take advantage of the situation."
"She should have taken advantage of the situation. I'm not even a woman, so how can I compete with others?" Qiao Ning smiled bitterly.
Xu Meng widened his eyes and said in disbelief, "Qiao Ning, what are you talking about? It's not like you to say such a dejected thing."
"Otherwise, what else can I say? They were childhood sweethearts, and it's only natural for them to relive their old dreams. Besides, I can't give Li Chengyan anything. Can't I just stand there and not lay eggs?"
After Qiao Ning finished speaking, he turned around and went back to his room.
Li Chengyan came home from work and saw the servants busy, so he asked, "Hasn't madam come back yet?"
A little maid immediately came over and said, "She's back. Madam is resting upstairs. Let's not disturb her."
Li Chengyan frowned. He used to see Qiao Ning running over when he came home. What happened today?
Just as she was about to go upstairs to take a look, the maid whispered again, "Sir, madam seems a little unhappy. Her eyes are swollen."
"I see. Go do your work!" Li Chengyan nodded.
She went upstairs and pushed open the bedroom door. Sure enough, she saw Qiao Ning sleeping on the bed.
He took off his coat and walked to the other side, thinking that she was asleep. But she didn't expect her eyes to be open, staring straight ahead without any focus.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Chengyan frowned and touched her forehead.
Qiao Ning suddenly opened his hand and said coldly, "Don't touch me."
Li Chengyan frowned deeper and his face turned black. But looking at her red and swollen eyes, he said patiently, "What happened? Tell me. Maybe I can help you solve it."
"Help me? How can you help me? You can't help me at all. I asked you to help me find out about my biological father, but there's no news for so long. You can't do anything. You won't do anything." Qiao Ning suddenly got up from the bed and sat on the bed screaming hysterically.
However, she was clearly unreasonable, and Li Chengyan also explained to her about her biological father. It was true that there was nothing to investigate, and Li Chengyan found it strange. Chen Meng's background was very clear, and Qiao Wenyuan's background was also clear. But the two of them disappeared together for three years, then appeared, and they had a child together, and that was Qiao Ning.
As for where he had been for the past three years, no one knew, and Li Chengyan had no clue about finding someone to investigate.
He had told her about it long ago, and she didn't react after hearing it. Instead, he smiled and said, "It seems that god doesn't want me to find him. Since that's the case, then follow god's will!"
She dug up what had happened for so long and said that he was useless. She was really looking for trouble.
However, Li Chengyan remained patient and tried his best to be gentle, "I didn't do this well. The person I'm looking for is still investigating. There will definitely be a result. In this world, there can't be no completely airtight wall. Wait..."
"Oh, Li Chengyan, you're lying to me again! You're always like this. You like to lie to me, say things that are impossible, make me hope, and then completely disappointed. Just like the day before yesterday, when I liked to eat scallops, you let me eat a few more! But she was stingy and refused to give it to me. She also said that it would be bad if she ate too much tomorrow. But did she cook it yesterday? You like to lie to me if you didn't cook it at all."
"Yesterday you said you wanted to eat pickled fish again, so the kitchen made pickled fish. Aren't you happy to eat it too?" Li Chengyan had no idea how she could connect the two things, but he explained patiently.
"But my heart for scallops has never changed, and you lied to me." Qiao Ning shouted hysterically again.
Li Chengyan took a deep breath, and his patience finally wore off. He said with a grim face, "Qiao Ning, you just want to argue today! You're making a scene out of nothing. Find something trivial to argue with me. If you just want to argue with me, then I have nothing to say. Have a good rest yourself! I'll come back when you calm down."
After that, Li Chengyan was about to walk out.
But when she reached the door, Qiao Ning suddenly shouted, "I saw Ye Ziqing."
After saying this, she was silent for a moment and said with a low and bitter smile, "On the opening day of the 16th, did you go to see her? These days... Every time you talk about social engagements, you must meet her!"
