Chapter 9009 Gentleman's style (3)
"Since the one who saw it has a share, then it can be considered mine." Xiao Mingzhang suddenly stretched out his hand and rubbed the milk cat's head.
The little kitten gave a comfortable "meow" and lay obediently in Xiao Xi's arms.
Xiao Xisi smiled: "Why don't you count it? Its name was also given by Mr. Xiao."
"Um."
"Then I'll keep it for now."
It's getting late, and the street lights in the neighborhood are all on.
The car stopped outside the community where Xixian lived. The surroundings were quiet and there was no one in sight on the street.
Xiao Sisi carried her bag and hugged Huahua, and said goodbye to Xiao Mingzhang again: "Mr. Xiao, I'm going back first. You drive slowly on the road and pay attention to safety."
After saying that, she wrapped the kitten tightly and returned to her apartment.
The bright moon in the sky was bright, and the light from the street lamp cast a dim yellow shadow on the ground. The light elongated the figure of a portrait, and she walked all the way back to her apartment in the cold night.
Xiao's frail and thin figure quickly disappeared in front of Xiao Mingzhang.
Xiao Mingzhang drove back to Linglong Bay.
After taking off his coat and hanging it on the hanger, the man loosened his tie and went to get a bottle of red wine from the wine rack.
He glanced at his watch. It was 10:30 in the evening, which was still early for him.
Xiao Mingzhang habitually goes to bed late and works all day long, and only the late night time belongs to him.
After pouring red wine into the transparent goblet, Xiao Mingzhang remembered the incense stick that Xiao had given him, so he took one and lit it.
Xiao Mingzhang didn't quite understand this, he just felt that the fragrance was light and elegant, which suited the long late night.
As soon as he opened his laptop, Xiao Qiaoqiao called him: "Brother Mingzhang, are you in the apartment? Can I go find you? I miss you so much."
"It's getting late, and I still have work to do."
"Brother Mingzhang, why do you always reject me? I just went to see you and nothing else." Xiao Qiaoqiao coquettishly said to him, "Really, just for a look, I haven't seen you for many days.
"
"Have you been drinking?" Xiao Mingzhang could hear the hint of drunkenness in her tone.
"I drank a little... It's not because I miss you so much that I can only drink to drown my sorrows... If you don't want to see me, I might have to drink all night. Otherwise, how can I spend this long night?"
"Stop drinking and go to bed early."
"Then you promise me, I will just take a look at you and then leave."
"You can come to my office another day. I'm not free tonight."
"Okay." Xiao Qiaoqiao compromised, "Then I'll go to your office another day, and you have to wait for me in the office."
"I will be at Xiao's all day tomorrow."
"Okay, okay." Xiao Qiaoqiao became happy, "Brother Mingzhang, what have you been busy with recently? My dad said that when you finish the project in hand, he plans to talk to you. He said he hasn't seen you for a long time.
I have been chatting with you alone, and he also said that during the Chinese New Year this year, the whole family must be together and have a lively New Year."
Xiao Mingzhang did not speak. The word "New Year" did not cause any waves in his heart.
He has no impression of the New Year at all.
"Brother Mingzhang, our family used to celebrate the New Year together, but unfortunately, you have forgotten all about it. At that time, you would play with me, go to the elders' homes to pay New Year greetings, and give me red envelopes and New Year gifts. You would give me red envelopes and New Year gifts every time you came back from abroad.
I brought gifts, and many of the gifts in my room were given by you. Brother Mingzhang, can you not even remember them?"
"I don't even remember."
"It's such a pity, those beautiful memories." Xiao Qiaoqiao sighed, "It would have been great if there hadn't been that accidental car accident. We were childhood sweethearts. You were completely different back then than you are now. At that time, you made me happy every day.
You said that seeing me smile is your greatest happiness. I was young at that time and thought that the future was long. If I had known that you couldn’t remember anything after the car accident, I should have...should have gotten you married earlier."
Xiao Mingzhang frowned tightly.
He had no impression of what Xiao Qiaoqiao said.
As she spoke on the other end of the phone, Xiao Mingzhang's heart did not waver at all, as if it were calm water.
Xiao Qiaoqiao didn't get a response from him and sighed: "Brother Mingzhang, you should be busy. Go to bed early and don't stay up late. I think there will be a long time in the future, and I am willing to accompany you to slowly recover your memory. Recovery
It doesn’t matter if you can’t, I’m still your Qiaoqiao sister, and the Xiao family will always be your strongest support.”
Still not getting much response from Xiao Mingzhang, Xiao Qiaoqiao put down her phone.
She hung up the phone and sat in the Xiao family living room, holding a wine glass.
The night outside the Xiao family villa was hazy, and a faint Milky Way stretched across the night sky. The stars were twinkling and the night was misty.
Butler Bai came over: "Miss, it's getting late, go to bed early."
Xiao Qiaoqiao's face was flushed with drunkenness, and her eyes were blurry. She shook the wine glass in her hand, her expression indifferent.
"Is dad back?"
"Dr. Xiao is still out socializing and may not come back until early in the morning."
"I can't sleep, waiting for dad to come back."
"Miss, is there something on your mind?"
"What's on your mind?" Xiao Qiaoqiao took a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, took one out, and lit it.
The smoke lingered on the side of her face, and the woman's rosy and charming facial features were hidden in it. A layer of smoke seemed to cover her long wavy hair, adding a little more charm.
"Miss, you haven't been in good health lately, so you shouldn't smoke."
"Butler Bai, this is not your business."
"Yes." Butler Bai probably knew what was bothering her, "Miss, is Mr. Xiao still unwilling to go back to the Xiao family?"
"He said that Linglong Bay is close to the company and is convenient for living." Xiao Qiaoqiao's eyes flashed with a hint of indifference, "Every time I ask to go to Linglong Bay to see him, he is unwilling. Does he treat me as a scourge?"
"Miss, Mr. Xiao has been injured. He may not be used to being close to others and prefers to be alone." Butler Bai said, "Miss, actually relax, Mr. Xiao is just a little cold-tempered, but he is not good at women.
"
"Which hot-blooded man is so cold? I doubt him..." Xiao Qiaoqiao was so angry that she took two puffs of cigarette.
"Don't worry, Miss. The doctor has said that Mr. Xiao is recovering well and there is no such problem."
Xiao Qiaoqiao didn't say much and just smoked and drank alone.
Not long after, she heard the sound of a car engine in the compound. She glanced outside and knew that her father was back.
Xiao Lang got out of the car and stepped on the marble floor with his leather shoes.
Entering the living room, he first smelled the smell of tobacco and alcohol.
"Qiaoqiao, why are you still up so late? Why are you smoking? Girls shouldn't smoke."
"Dad, I'm not happy. I'll feel better if I take a few puffs."
"Who bullied my precious daughter?" Xiao Lang came over and sat on the sofa, side by side with her.
"Who else could it be?"
"Oh, it seems it's that boy Xiao Mingzhang again." Xiao Lang said with a smile, "He made you angry again? Dad makes the decision for you."
"Dad, what can you do for me? Can you do it for him? For so long, he has always looked like he was rejecting people. Who can stand it? How could your precious daughter be so eager to chase people before?"
