Chapter 1046: Forever
On the day of Qiao Zhongxing's funeral, Qiao Weiyi met Lin Yao again.
Lin Yao did not appear at the funeral, nor did she appear in front of any mourners. It was when Rong Juan finally walked out of the cemetery with Qiao Weiwei that he saw her standing outside the cemetery.
Qiao Weiwei's eyes were still red and swollen. The moment he saw her, tears suddenly fell down.
Lin Yao didn't seem to expect to meet her again at this time. Seeing Qiao Weiyi shed tears, her tears suddenly lost control. Then she stepped forward, stretched out her hand and hugged Qiao Weiyi.
In the past few months when Qiao Zhongxing was ill, Lin Yao only visited him once, but that time only lasted for more than an hour.
Qiao Zhongxing always had a gentle and calm temper, but for more than an hour, he was particularly indifferent.
So Lin Yao left quickly and never appeared again from then on until today.
Qiao Weiwei wanted to explain something to her, but he felt that he didn't need to explain.
Since she appears here today, it means that she knows what Qiao Zhongxing is thinking, and she has not blamed him.
"Don't be too sad." Lin Yao said to her, "Take good care of yourself. Your father definitely hopes that you can live happily."
Qiao Weiwei said: "We may rarely have the chance to see each other again in the future, so take care of yourself."
"I will, I will..." Lin Yao nodded, and then looked at Rong Juan beside Qiao Weiwei, "I know you will be very happy in the future, and your father's spirit in heaven will definitely feel relieved.
"
After seeing Lin Yao off, Rong Juncai accompanied Qiao Weiwei back home.
During the days when Qiao Zhongxing was hospitalized, Qiao Weiyi basically spent time in the hospital ward and rarely went home. Now that he comes back, the house is the same as before, except that there is one person missing.
She lost her mother early and her father forever. At that moment, the only thing Qiao really felt was confusion and loneliness.
Rong Juan poured her a cup of hot water and came out. He saw her standing in the living room a little absent-mindedly. He put down the cup in his hand, stepped forward and hugged her, "Don't think about it, let's rest for a while first?"
Qiao Weiwei slowly turned his head and met his gaze, then finally turned around again, leaned into his arms, and hugged him tightly.
…
After working hard for several days, Qiao Weiwei finally lay down and took a nap.
It was already midnight when she woke up. She was lying on the small bed in her room, feeling completely quiet.
Qiao Weiwei lay there in a daze for a while, then reached out and touched his cell phone, only to find that it had been turned off.
She restarted her phone and took a look at the messages that came in. Most of them were sent by relatives and friends to comfort her, but the message she was looking for was not found.
Qiao Weiwei lay there for a while, then lifted off the quilt and stood up, opened the door and walked out, but at first glance he didn't see Rong Juan.
She searched the bathroom and the other two rooms, then walked to the living room, only to find that Rong Juan was on the balcony of the living room.
He sat there with the sliding door of the balcony closed, the computer in front of him, and the phone in his ear. Because his back was to the house, he didn't see her.
Qiao Weiwei stretched out his hand to open the balcony door and heard his deliberately lowered voice.
It turned out that he locked himself out here because he was afraid of disturbing her when she slept. No wonder the room was so quiet when she woke up.
Although Rong Juan was concentrating on the phone call at this moment, he still instantly noticed the movement behind him. As soon as he turned his head and saw her, he immediately hung up the phone in a hurry, walked forward and pulled her into the house.
"Why did you wake up so soon?" Rong Juan said, "I thought you could sleep until dawn."
"I've slept for six or seven hours." Qiao Weiwei said, "Have you been working?"
"No." Rong Juan said, "There was a decision to be made in the company just now, so I talked with the people under me for a while. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something before going to bed?"
Qiao Weiwei shook his head, and then said: "Are you hungry? If you want to eat, I will buy it for you."
Rong Juan reached out and pinched her face and said, "I'll eat it if you eat it."
Qiao Weiwei thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go out and eat something hot."
The two simply tidied up, changed their clothes and went out together.
While standing in front of the elevator waiting, Qiao Weiwei suddenly turned to look at him and asked, "Didn't anyone come to see me when I was asleep?"
"Huh?" Rong Juan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Who will come to find you?"
Qiao Weiwei was quiet for a moment and then said: "Those who are unwilling to do so."
Rong Juan knew who she was talking about.
Of the three Qiao brothers, Qiao Zhongxing has the best career development. The other two brothers are somewhat ineffective. This time Qiao Zhongxing fell ill and passed away. The other two families are looking for trouble, openly and secretly trying to gain some benefits.
Qiao Zhongxing had actually considered them a long time ago, but unfortunately, in their eyes, that consideration was just like sending a beggar away.
They probably said something to Qiao Yiwei during the funeral today, so Qiao Yiwei thought they would come to find her.
"I've been here before." Rong Juan said nonchalantly, "I sent him away."
After hearing this, Qiao Weiwei couldn't help but be startled and said: "How did you spend it?"
Rong Juan turned to look at her, chuckled and said, "How much effort does it take to send them away? Do you think they dare to challenge me?"
Qiao Yiyi has no doubts about this——
For Rong Juan, they would always only praise and please him. Let alone challenge him, they never said a harsh word in front of Rong Juan.
But she still didn't want Rong Juan to get involved in these messy people and things.
He originally didn't have to worry about anything, but he already worried too much about her.
"I don't want them to bother you." Qiao Weiwei said, "Actually, don't they just want money? I'll just give it -"
Before she finished speaking, Rong Juan had already reached out to hold her in his arms, raised his hand to press her lips, and said, "I said, they don't dare to bother me. I hope for my sake, they won't either."
I dare to bother you."
Qiao Weiwei paused again before slowly nodding.
Rong Juan then took her hand and walked into the elevator.
The two of them walked hand in hand to a nearby all-night snack bar and had something to eat. After eating, they walked hand in hand and walked back.
After returning home and taking a shower, Qiao Weiwei was no longer sleepy, so he simply took his suitcase and packed his luggage.
Rong Juan came out of the shower and when he saw her movements, he couldn't help but ask, "Why are you packing your luggage?"
"I have to go back to school." Qiao Weiwei said, "Thesis defense will be in two days. I have to go back in advance to prepare."
But Rong Juan stepped forward and took her hand, saying: "No need to prepare anything. If you want to rest, just rest for a while."
"How can that be done?" Qiao Weiwei said, "After four years of schooling, how can you let go at the last joint?"
"I have already said hello to the school." Rong Juan said, "Your thesis defense can be postponed. When are you rested and ready, you can go back to defend and receive your diploma."
After Qiao Weiwei heard this, he couldn't help but be silent for a moment, and then he raised his face and kissed him on the corner of his lips.
