Chapter 223 Treat You as My Granddaughter
Qiao Jingyu slowly shook her head and said softly, "Grandma, I really like to eat everything!" Although her tone was gentle, it could not hide the slight trembling in it.
Luo Huimin, who was standing nearby, keenly caught this subtle change. When she listened carefully, she could clearly hear the low and suppressed cry in Qiao Jingyu's voice. In an instant, Luo Huimin's heart suddenly tightened, and she hurriedly lowered her head to check. Qiao Jingyu's beautiful eyes were now filled with tears, and crystal tears were rolling down her fair cheeks, like pearls that had broken off the string.
Seeing this scene, Luo Huimin panicked immediately, her hands trembled unconsciously, and she stammered, "Jingyu, grandma was wrong. Grandma shouldn't have randomly suspected that you had any relationship with Xiao Jiang. I just thought too much when I first saw you. Good child, stop crying. Grandma believes you now, really believes you!"
Qiao Jingyu raised her hand, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, tried to force a smile, and comforted her: "Grandma, don't be like this, you really are overthinking it..." However, although she said that it was okay, the slightly red tip of her nose and her still wet eyelashes revealed her true emotions.
"Hey! Hey! Grandma knows that I was confused and overthinking this time. Please don't cry anymore. Grandma promises that I will never have such nonsense thoughts again." Luo Huimin looked at Qiao Jingyu with a face full of guilt and heartache, and nodded repeatedly to promise.
At this time, Qiao Jingyu slowly put down the bowl of steaming porridge in her hand, then stretched out her hands and gently held Luo Huimin's hands. Her eyes were extremely sincere, staring into Luo Huimin's eyes, and slowly said: "Grandma, in fact, the reason why I cried is not because of your misunderstanding just now, but because... because I was too moved. Growing up, my mother left me when I was very young, and then because of my stepmother and sister, even my grandmother did not love me as sincerely as you do. Except for my father, no one has ever treated me as wholeheartedly as you do!" At this point, Qiao Jingyu's voice choked again, and tears blurred her vision again.
Luo Huimin was slightly stunned at first, as if she was hit by something, but she quickly came to her senses. Her kind eyes fell on Qiao Jingyu, and she gently raised her hand, gently patted Qiao Jingyu's slender little hand, and said softly: "Good child, don't cry, grandma promises you that from now on, I will treat you as my own granddaughter and love you like her."
When Qiao Jingyu heard this, a warm current suddenly surged in her heart. She longed for this kind of warmth and love. So she nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, thank you grandma!" There was a little sob in her voice, and crystal tears were still shining in her eyes.
Seeing this, Luo Huimin's smile became even brighter. She was delighted to think that Qiao Jingyu had agreed to marry her grandson Duan Yuchen as his granddaughter-in-law. Thinking of this, she was so excited that she could hardly control herself. She hugged Qiao Jingyu tightly and kept saying, "Oh, our Xiaochen is so lucky to meet a good child like you who is so well-behaved, sensible and kind-hearted!"
......
Time passed quickly and it was noon. Taking advantage of the break from work, Qiao Jingyu hurried to a nearby shopping mall. Today, she planned to pick out a tie for Duan Yuchen.
After arriving at the mall, Qiao Jingyu went straight to the Armani men's clothing store without hesitation. Entering the store, she was dazzled by the dazzling array of men's clothing, but her goal was very clear, which was to find a tie that best suited Duan Yuchen.
Qiao Jingyu browsed the shelves attentively, examining each tie carefully. Finally, her eyes stopped on a navy blue tie. The color of this tie was deep and steady, the texture was excellent, and the details were exquisite and elegant. Although it was expensive, costing more than 3000, when she thought of Duan Yuchen's status, those low-end ties were really not worth buying. Qiao Jingyu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to buy it.
After choosing the tie, Qiao Jingyu walked to the cashier counter and said to the waiter with a smile: "Hello, could you please help me pack this tie? Thank you for your help." The waiter took the tie enthusiastically and began to pack it carefully and skillfully.
Qiao Jingyu paid for her tie and was about to leave when she heard someone calling her, "Jingyu!"
Qiao Jingyu looked back and saw that it was Ye Ting and Jiang Mubai who walked in from the door. Qiao Jingyu couldn't bring herself to call her "sister-in-law", so she could only smile and say, "What a coincidence!"
"Well, I'm bringing Xiaobai out for a walk!" Ye Ting smiled gently, and then her eyes fell on the bag in Qiao Jingyu's hand, "Is this for Yuchen?"
Originally she just wanted to give a gift, but now that Ye Ting saw it, Qiao Jingyu actually felt like a wife buying clothes for her husband.
Unconsciously blushing a little, she nodded and said, "Yeah!"
Jiang Mubai glanced at Qiao Jingyu, then looked elsewhere, scanned the clothes in the store, turned around and walked out, "I don't like it!"
Ye Ting asked Qiao Jingyu with a smile. "Jingyu, have you bought it?"
Qiao Jingyu nodded.
"Then come shopping with us! You and Xiaobai are about the same age, so you should know what kind of clothes he would like." Ye Ting looked at Qiao Jingyu helplessly, "Grandma asked me to accompany Xiaobai to buy clothes, but after shopping for a long time, he didn't like any of them."
Qiao Jingyu thought that she had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she agreed. The two of them went out from the spot and caught up with Jiang Mubai.
Jiang Mubai saw Qiao Jingyu following him, and turned his head to look at her. His eyes caught a glimpse of the Armani tie she had just bought, his gaze darkened slightly, and then he turned away.
When passing by a branded leisure sports store, Qiao Jingyu stopped and said, "Shall we go in and take a look?"
Ye Ting looked at Jiang Mubai and asked, "Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Jiang Mubai put his hands in his trouser pockets, looking indifferent, but he walked into the store.
This time Jiang Mubai did not come out immediately.
Ye Ting smiled and said to Qiao Jingyu, "You young people understand the minds of young people. I took him to see more than 10 stores, but he always walked out within a minute."
Qiao Jingyu smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Mubai turned around and glanced at Qiao Jingyu.
Jiang Mubai looked around the store for a long time but didn't choose anything. Ye Ting asked him, "Xiaobai, is there anything you like here?"
Jiang Mubai touched his nose, seeming a little embarrassed, "Help me choose!"
Ye Ting looked at Jiang Mubai in disbelief. This second-generation rich kid actually asked her to help him choose clothes. But she was afraid that Jiang Mubai would not like her taste, so she turned to look at Qiao Jingyu, "Jingyu, can you help Xiaobai choose a set?"
