Qiao Zhen’s expression turned odd: How did he kick Gu Ye?
The main point was that Gu Ye completely didn’t react at the dinner table after being kicked, he wasn’t even bothered. Was this called the elegant demeanor and etiquette of taking the big picture into consideration?
Qiao Jin asked him, “Tell me clearly, what’s going on?”
Qiao Zhen lowered his voice, “Don’t you feel that Gu Ye is strange? Based on what you know about him, would he be someone who is so eager to help others and be friends with you or Lao San?”
Qiao Jin said, “What you’re saying is true, of course I know what this old fox is thinking.”
Qiao Zhen asked in shock: “You know?!”
Qiao Jin “Humph!” softly, looking shrewd like Zhuge Liang 1 waving a feather fan.
“Our Qiao family has an excellent development team and a superior quality of technology. That’s why Gu Est. has been actively strengthening cooperation with us on some projects.”
“The Liang family also needs our technology. You’re about to be married to sister-in-law. Our family will have a closer relationship with the Liang family in the future. The cooperation and partnership will also bring us closer to the Liang family.”
""
“Gu Ye is afraid of losing such a good partner2 like our Qiao family, so he warmed up the relationship in advance.”
Qiao Zhen: “…..”
“Then what about Qi Fengtai? He obtained a good land resource at such a cheap price, and let it go just like that?”
Qiao Jin held the teacup in his hand, and asked another question, “Lao San could detect that there is a problem with Qi Fengtai, but would Gu Ye not detect it?”
“Not to mention our Qiao Est. didn’t want Qi Fengtai at all, Gu Ye definitely felt that there was something fishy internally.”
“So that day he took advantage of the situation for his own benefit to cast off Qi Fengtai, also help us Qiao Family to save face, and even make us owe him a big favor.”
“He definitely investigated Qi Fengtai privately and then discovered that it wasn’t targeting the Gu Est.. Therefore, he calmed down, and just like presenting the Buddha with borrowed flowers3, he gave us the results of the investigation.”
He quietly pointed to the living room and said, “Look at how much our dad trusts him now, and just now he even said that the two families will continue to have more collaboration.”
Qiao Jin’s words were spoken so clearly and logically that Qiao Zhen was almost persuaded by him.
But, what kind of person was Gu Ye.
It was not his character to deliberately chase after people and win people’s favor just for several collaborative projects.
Qiao Zhen shook his head, contemplating, “I don’t think so. I think that he is interested in Lao San.”
“Puff!”
Qiao Jin had barely drunk a mouthful of tea from his cup, but he choked and spat it all out upon Qiao Zhen’s words.
He even sprayed on Qiao Zhen.
Then as if he just heard a big joke, he mercilessly pointed a finger at Qiao Zhen and laughed while coughing.
“Da Ge, your imagination is really too rich.”
Qiao Zhen’s face was stormy, and slapped Qiao Jin’s hand away.
The two of them made too much of a ruckus, which alarmed the two people sitting in the living room. Qiao Tiancheng asked unhappily, “What are you two doing?”
Qiao Jin was still “Pfff”, laughing, “No, Da Ge just told me a bad joke.”
Qiao Zhen’s face turned pale from being angered by him. He even wanted to strangle Lao Er to death.
Qiao Tiancheng glared at them, and said embarrassingly to Gu Ye, “Looking at them fooling around, really incur ridicule from Xiao Gu.”
Gu Ye smiled gently, “Qiao brothers really have such a good brotherly relationship, it’s really enviable.”
Qiao Zhen: …… good my ass!
In order to convince him, Qiao Zhuan continued to prattle, “I think Lao San and Mo Yu, the two of them are interested in each other. You go to Lao San’s room and see how well he plays with Mo Yu.”
“And you also heard it during the meal just now. Lao San asked Mo Yu to sing at your wedding. That’s obviously paving the way for him in the future.”
“If Gu Ye is really interested in Lao San, will he look on without a care when Lao San is being close with his first love? Is he torturing himself?”
Qiao Zhen: ……
Could it really be that he was overthinking it?
Qiao Jin blew on the tea, took a sip slowly, and looked at ease, “Besides, what does Gu Ye like about Lao San? Can our Lao San attract this old fox?”
Qiao Zhen clicked his tongue, “Why can’t Lao San attract him?”
Qiao Jin didn’t bother with him, “Fine, you can continue to observe. I’ll go find Lao San and Mo Yu to have fun with.”
Qiao Zhen joined the conversation between Qiao Tiancheng and Gu Ye.
The three people chatted about the current political situation, economy, and joint projects. They even occasionally told a few jokes, and got along very harmoniously.

He saw that Gu Ye still had the same gentle smile on his face and the graceful demeanor just like before. Just that his expressions were much more sincere and his words were more proactive.
There was no alienation and indifference from the past.
In the end, he had kicked the other person twice just now, so now Qiao Zhen was feeling quite apologetic and his words were chased away by Gu Ye’s slow tone.
Words whether or not he held that kind of interest toward Lao San, he simply couldn’t ask.
Moreover, in the case that Gu Ye didn’t have that kind of intention, then where was he going to put his face and endure? Wouldn’t it all be in his head that Gu Ye was having that kind of interest in Lao San4?!
However, just because he didn’t ask didn’t mean he didn’t care.
He would secretly investigate this matter.
When Qiao Tiancheng and the others were leaving, Qiao Yang asked them to pack Ah Xing up and take him away with the reasons that his house was small and there was no space.
Ah Xing felt wronged: Did I do something wrong?
Qiao Tiancheng had no choice but to compromise. He wanted to take an entry card to Qiao Yang’s house, so that he could enter and leave the community when he wanted to visit in the future.
Qiao Zhen then turned to take the room card into his hand.

After the house was cleared, Qiao Yang went to Gu Ye’s house.
He sat in front of the heavenly sound, lightly caressed and stroked the piano’s body. He caretakingly opened the piano’s lid, and joy filled his heart, “Finally, I can play you.”
Gu Ye made a pot of lemonade for him, and put it on the small table next to the piano. He asked with a smile, “You like it that much?”
Qiao Yang told the truth, “I mainly want to play it for you. It happens to be nap time. Would you like to lie down on the sofa? I’ll see if my piano skills can lull you to sleep.”
Gu Ye listened to his words and then sat on a three-seater sofa in the room, he asked, “Lull me to sleep? Why?”
Qiao Yang said, “You didn’t get much sleep last night, did you? Take this time to catch up on your sleep.”
There was a gentle deep concern in his voice.
So it turned out it was to thank him for taking care of him last night.
Treat him well and he would return the kindness back to you.
Then give him the best and he could also receive the best back.
