"Huh?" Fu Shaoting looked at Qiao Man in surprise: "Why did you mention this so suddenly?"
Fu Chen, who was playing computer games aside, couldn't help but mute his headphones and quietly pricked up his ears.
Dad's closest family member is now only his great-grandmother, but my great-grandmother lives in the old house. If they meet, the secret will be exposed directly.
Qiao Man didn't notice Fu Shaoting's uncomfortable mood, and said in a serious tone: "After all, we have obtained a marriage certificate. You have already met my family. It is polite to meet your family."
She didn't want Fu Shaoting's family to think that she was a person who didn't understand etiquette.
It's just that Fu Shaoting never mentioned it before, but now they are living a stable life and their marriage is almost very stable, so Qiao Man specifically mentioned it.
Fu Shaoting thought that his grandma just wanted him to find a well-matched eldest lady to get married, and she had been urging her to get married so hard before.
Because of Qiao Man's identity, he never informed the old lady that he had received the certificate.
If she suddenly met Qiao Man and knew her identity, she would definitely not be satisfied, and Qiao Man might be wronged.
What's more, Qiao Man still doesn't know his identity, so now is really not a good time to meet her grandma.
With his mind spinning, Fu Shaoting evaded: "Grandma has a weird personality and doesn't want to see people. Wait until I do some ideological work for her, and I will take you to see her after a while."
He thought in his mind that he should reveal his marriage to his grandma little by little.
Fu Chen quickly covered his mouth, fearing that he would laugh out loud. If the grandma knew that her father dared to say that to her, she would be beaten with a cane.
Qiao Man looked at him in surprise, not expecting him to say this at all.
Then he remembered that he had never mentioned his parents before, and it seemed that he had never received a call from his parents.
After hesitation, Qiao Man glanced at Fu Chen and suppressed her doubts for the time being, preparing to find a suitable time to ask him about the situation at home.
From his tone, it seems that he only needs to meet an elder, grandma?
Then she has to prepare gifts in advance and come to meet him at any time.
"Okay, but we have to do it as soon as possible. After all, getting married is a big deal and you have to meet your elders sooner or later." Qiao Man was also nervous, but respected his family more.
Fu Shaoting nodded slightly: "Okay, I will mention it to grandma and arrange for you to meet then."
"Okay, get some rest early." Qiao Man said nothing more, told Fu Shaoting, and took Fu Chen back to his room to sleep.
Looking at the backs of the young and old people returning to the room, Fu Shaoting's relaxed expression suddenly disappeared, and there was a bit of distress on his handsome face.
He has to take time to see his grandma.
A week passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Qiao Man was surprised to find that Fang Ru was quite honest.
Recently, I have not tried to embarrass her in any way as before, causing her to go home and continue working overtime at night.
Although it is unclear why Fang Ru's targeting suddenly stopped, it is a good thing for her.
She just wants to work normally and live a peaceful life.
As everyone knows, Fang Ru secretly followed her and Gu Yao to the hotel last time and was frightened by Gu Yao's identity.
She didn't dare to target Qiao Man for the time being, for fear that she would be punished by the eldest lady of the Gu family, but she observed for seven days and did not find that Qiao Man contacted Gu Yao again.
She couldn't help but think that maybe the relationship between Qiao Man and Gu Yao was not as good as she thought?
Fang Ru was really unhappy with Qiao Man, and as time went by, her disgust deepened, and she wanted to expel her from the company immediately and ruin her reputation.
In this way, the project in Qiao Man's hands can only be taken over by her.
Fang Ru decided to observe for a few more days, and something was already starting to happen secretly.
It was rainy Monday morning, with dark clouds covering the sky and the sun. Light rain wet the road, and there was a sense of moisture in the air.
As soon as Qiao Man arrived at the company, she received a call from Gu Yao.
"Manbao, what do you want to eat when we go out for dinner tonight? I'll make a reservation for the restaurant." Gu Yao's somewhat lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Are you done?" Qiao Man asked with raised eyebrows.
On the third day after Gu Yao's homecoming banquet, she was taken to the company by Gu's father to learn various managements. She was more tired than a farm cow and complained to her every night in X letters.
"Don't mention it, I finally got a cooperation, and my father gave me a day off. Wow... I'm so miserable." Gu Yao pretended to cry in grievance.
Qiao Man couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, see you in the evening."
Gu Yao suddenly resurrected with full blood: "What do you want to eat? Send me an X message later."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Qiao Man sent a letter to Fu Shaoting: [Yao Yao invites me to dinner tonight, so you don't have to come to pick me up. 】
Fu Shaoting's reply came quickly: [Okay, do you need my help to book a restaurant? 】
Qiao Man's lips curled up slightly: [No need. 】
Then she put her phone aside and focused on her work. When FY's project was completely stable and the overall design draft was selected, she would have to start negotiating the next contract.
If she wants to make more money, she must not stop the projects she is working on. The more the better.
Time flies by at work, and the day passes in the blink of an eye.
When it was time to get off work, Qiao Man just finished her goals for the day. She shut down the computer, packed up the desktop, and went downstairs with her bag.
I happened to receive a call from Gu Yao, and her cheerful voice came from the other end: "Manbao, I'm downstairs, are you off work?"
"Well, I'm going to take the elevator downstairs."
"I'll wait for you." Gu Yao smiled and hung up the phone.
Qiao Man got out of the elevator and walked towards the door. As soon as she reached the door, she received another call.
She thought Gu Yao couldn't wait any longer, so she picked up the phone and saw that it was Liu Yingying's call.
Qiao Man paused slightly, and Wei Kucha frowned. After hesitation, he picked up the phone and asked in a calm tone: "Is something wrong?"
"Why don't you know how to respect people now? Do you talk to me like this?" Liu Yingying was particularly unhappy with her tone and opened her mouth to scold her.
Qiao Man took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in her heart, frowned and said, "What's the matter, sister-in-law? If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first, I'm busy."
"You're already off work, what else is there to do?" Liu Yingying sneered, not believing what she said at all, and snorted coldly: "Mom asked you to come back for dinner now, so come back quickly."
"I made an appointment with someone else tonight and I can't go back." Qiao Man refused without thinking, not wanting to go back to Qiao's house.
After leaving that suffocating home, she preferred the feeling of freedom outside.
Every time she returned to Qiao's house, she found it difficult to breathe, making her feel suffocated all over.
"What? Now that your wings are stiff, you don't even want to go back home?" Liu Yingying's voice gradually became sharper: "Mom can't even call you back, right? I'll call mom now."
Qiao Man's eyes flashed with exhaustion and helplessness, she frowned slightly and explained: "I really made an appointment with someone else tonight."
