C195 You Lied to Me?
Qiao An raised her hand and put out the lamp. "Good night."
Hearing that her tone was a little nervous, Huo Chengzhou smiled silently.
...
For the past few days, Huo Chengzhou insisted on playing with Qin Yining's toys and telling him stories before he went to bed. Qiao An was used to listening to the conversation between the two of them.
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the month, Old Master Moo's 80th birthday.
Huo Qingshan had already greeted Huo Chengzhou in advance and was going to bring Qiao An along to attend the ceremony that day. He even specially asked Huo Chengyun to prepare a formal dress for Qiao An.
When the formal dress was delivered, it happened to be the day before yesterday. Qiao An interviewed in front of Aunt Faang. The light blue long dress was elegant and gentle, making Qiao An look elegant and dignified.
Along with the dress came a butterfly brooch, which added a touch of playfulness to her chest.
Aunt Faang praised, "Miss Qiao, this dress looks like a fairy on you."
Qin Yining also applauded from the side, "It's beautiful, Qiao's mother is really beautiful."
Qiao An naturally could not see it, but after hearing the feedback, she happily sent a thank you message to Huo Chengyun and arranged to eat with her next time.
It was still early, so Qiao An went upstairs to change her dress, so when Huo Chengzhou came back, Qiao An was already wearing her home clothes downstairs to play the piano with Qin Yining.
"Older sister said that the dress was delivered. Did you try it?" Huo Chengzhou asked.
"I tried." Aunt Faang smiled and rushed to answer, "Don't mention how beautiful it is."
A trace of regret appeared on Huo Chengzhou's face. "You tried it? Why didn't you wait for me to come back?"
Qiao An stopped what she was doing. "I will wear it tomorrow."
Huo Chengzhou thought for a while and agreed. "We will go to the mansion to pick up Dad tomorrow afternoon. We will go together."
Qiao An hesitated for a moment. "I forgot to tell you one thing in advance. I will go with Mr. Ling tomorrow."
It was Old Master Ling again.
Huo Chengzhou's face darkened. "What is it?"
"I promised Old Master Ling that there will be a performance at Elder Mu's birthday banquet tomorrow. I estimate that I will play 2-3 songs, so I will go with Old Master Ling to see Elder Mu first." Qiao An tried to explain in detail.
Huo Chengzhou frowned slightly. The relationship between Qiao An and Ling family seemed to be even deeper than he had imagined.
He strongly suspected that Old Master Ling wanted to nurture Qiao An into his granddaughter-in-law.
Hearing that he did not speak, Qiao An thought for a moment. "You can take the performance fee, and I have already promised the old man. It is really not good to change my mind."
Hearing the performance fee, Huo Chengzhou understood. "Is it for money again?"
Qiao An pursed her lips. "Er... not really, but money is definitely one aspect. After all, the expenses at home are huge now, and your company has just started. Of course, the main reason is because I promised Old Master Ling that I would help him. "
Huo Chengzhou raised his hand and rubbed his forehead. Fine, he had to pretend to be poor. What could he do now that Qiao An was working so hard to earn money?
After a long silence, Huo Chengzhou could only say, "Actually, besides the money I saved previously, I have a small investment here. My family is not in need of money. You don't need to take on these foreign funds in the future. Just focus on the work in musical instrument store. "
Qiao An turned her head and looked in his direction. "Didn't you spend all your money on this piano? The company is also in a hurry to use money. "
Huo Chengzhou took a deep breath. "I am still the young master of Huo family. I am not really poor.
Qiao An's eyes became serious. "So you lied to me before?"
