i'm not a bad man

Chapter 305 You are not RMB either

I opened the door and turned on the light. I saw that the glass was broken all over the floor, and Qiao Jiao was lying on the bed, stretching out her hands, looking like she was struggling. What she broke was the glass I poured for her before leaving. Plain water.

"Do you want a drink of water?"

Qiao Jiao then looked up at me and replied with an embarrassed look on her face: "I'm almost dying of thirst. It's just a glass of water, but my hands are so weak that I can't hold it steady."

"Remember from now on, one box of beer is your limit. No matter what the circumstances, you can't exceed this limit, because not every time you are so lucky, there will be someone around you who takes care of you like me."

As I spoke, I found a new cup from the cabinet, and then gave her a cup of warm water. I helped her up first, and then handed the water to her.

While she was drinking water, I found a broom and mop and cleaned up the broken cups and water on the floor.

Qiao Jiao drank one glass but her thirst was still not quenched, so I poured her another glass. She drank it in one go, and then she gasped and said to me: "Actually, half a box of beer is already my limit. It's because of you." That’s why I drink so much.”

"Then you quite trust me..."

"I have told Blackfoot and the others that you have changed your ways and are no longer the libertine you were before. I can't slap myself in the face. Since I have said this seriously, I still Trust you."

I smiled and asked again, "Do you want to drink again?"

"Don't drink it. If you drink it again, you will have edema tomorrow."

"Okay, then you can go back to sleep. It's time for me to go to sleep too. I have a meeting at the scenic spot tomorrow morning."

"Don't leave yet. I have a headache and can't sleep now. Please chat with me for a while."

I looked at the time. Although it was already 12:30 in the middle of the night, for me, who only needs six hours of sleep a day to catch up on sleep, I could still chat with her for a while; so, I moved She sat down on a chair next to her bed and lit a cigarette out of habit. Qiao Jiao seemed to have gotten used to this habit of mine. She just lay half-ly on the bed, looking at the smoke I exhaled, and did not say anything. Say anything offensive.

After a while, she finally said to me: "The Chinese New Year is coming in less than a month. Where do you plan to celebrate the New Year?"

"I……?"

I forced a smile and said, "It's a bit unnecessary for you to ask me this question... I no longer have the concept of New Year in my mind..."

"But whether you have this concept or not, it will come when the time comes... Tell me, how have you celebrated the New Year in the past few years?"

"I'll just spend it alone in the RV, drink some wine, watch a TV show or something... Fireworks and firecrackers have been banned in recent years. As long as I don't leave the RV, I can't feel the New Year atmosphere at all, so for me For me, it has gradually become a dispensable day... What about you, how do you spend your time? Do you go to visit relatives and pay New Year greetings? "

"Of course. Every year during the Chinese New Year, my dad comes to live with me. Although there is no nanny at home during the Chinese New Year, he will cook New Year's Eve dinner for me, and I will clean up the house, and then the two of us will have New Year's Eve dinner together... these days It is forbidden to set off fireworks during the New Year, but I am a very lively person, so after the New Year’s Eve dinner, my dad will drive me to find a beach where no one goes and set off fireworks with me... Every time When the fireworks started to go off, I was very happy, but when the fireworks were about to burn out, I felt particularly lost, as if I had seen the joys and sorrows between people. It seemed that no one in this world could really accompany anyone. In a lifetime, all encounters are like fireworks, only bright for a moment..." Qiao Jiao sighed sadly, then patted her head with her hand, and said: "Actually, my dad is also quite lonely... My grandfather Grandma likes my brother-in-law more, so she immigrated to live abroad with my brother-in-law and my family five years ago. She didn’t come back to see us for several years. Once my grandparents left, the original relationship gradually faded away... During the New Year When , my dad could only come to see me, but he only looked like a dad during the Chinese New Year. He was really a mess at ordinary times... Every time he came to my place, he looked drunk. Who would like that? What about an alcoholic who talks nonsense drunken words to himself? So, many times, I am really annoyed by him! If he had not done anything sorry for my mother back then, why would my mother abandon us and live abroad by herself? ...In the end, he complained to me, saying that I didn't give him peace of mind, but he never reflected on himself... He gave me most of my loneliness, so many times, I really don't feel how much he loves me I……"

After pondering for a while, I replied: "Real love sometimes doesn't necessarily make a loud sound."

"Come on, stop feeding me chicken soup for the soul..."

Qiao Jiao said this to me, and then after a short silence, she continued: "I have thought about it. I won't go anywhere for the Chinese New Year this year. I will just stay in the small town and spend it with my godfather. Then we will still be together." When we go to Shuanglong Lake, a group of people gather around a bonfire, eat New Year’s Eve dinner, and set off fireworks as much as they want, what an atmosphere!”

"Well, you are now making decent pastries. If you prepare more pastries and have some appetizers before drinking, my drinking capacity will be doubled."

"Okay."

"Speaking of pastries, I suddenly thought of something. I have a friend from out of town celebrating his birthday the day after tomorrow, and I don't know what gift to give him. Why don't you make a box of your best matcha cheesecake tomorrow and I'll send it to him as a gift. "

"Okay."

"It's best to make it before noon. I'll send it via SF Express in the afternoon to ensure that he receives it on his birthday the day after tomorrow."

Qiao Jiao nodded, and then said with some emotion: "It would be great if my dad could treat me like my godfather. I always feel that he is not very patient with me, and nothing lasts long... I do it Dad is so kind. Thanks to him, I have been eating seafood for a month. I also found the best chef to learn how to make pastries in a hotel. If it were my dad, he would never allow it. If I do this, let alone find a master to learn from, he will only think that I am not doing my job properly and have no tolerance for my interests and hobbies."

"Just because Uncle Chang has been kind to you for more than a month, you can't deny your father's efforts over the years..."

"That's what I say, but the feeling of love at first sight is really good... Tell me, am I really that lovable? Why is my godfather so kind to me? And his little wife, how is she treating me? Not bad!"

I took a deep breath from the cigarette, then squinted my eyes and replied: "Maybe he wants to turn you into his daughter-in-law. Otherwise, why would he always ask Yu Li to buy seafood for you? Isn't it to win for Yu Li? I have a good impression... You and Yu Li are both the second generation of rich people in the real sense. They are a perfect match. If you get together and have children, you will become the third generation of super rich people. They belong to a strong alliance. Uncle Chang's generation believes in this. This... Besides, it seems not difficult to understand why his little wife is so kind to you. Your father only has a daughter, and the family business will be yours from now on. If you are reliable, Yu Li will not miss Uncle Chang too much. Her twins will be able to share more of the family property. If Yu Li finds an ordinary woman, then in the future, fighting for the family property, he may be beaten to death..."

Qiao Jiao's expression was uncertain at first, then she raised her fist, glared at me and said, "Say it again!"

“The less you want to hear something, the more likely it is to be true.”

"If that's what you said, then I won't let him treat me well...I will move out of here tomorrow."

"Even if this is a fact, you don't need to move out... You didn't realize that Yu Li is not interested in you at all. Although you are a good person, you are not RMB. I don't think a man will like you."

Qiao Jiao snorted coldly, and then fell into silence. I didn’t know what she was thinking. I looked at the time and saw that half an hour had passed. So, I didn’t stay any longer and signaled Qiao Jiao to come early. After sleeping, he left her room.
