Endless Marital Battles - C260 She marry love, not marriage
What was worth mentioning was that at Qiao Mo’s table, coincidentally, a woman was sitting not far from her and Xiao Yan.
Qiao Mo’s three years of high school’s sworn enemy.
Qiao Mo didn’t treat Lin Kairui as her enemy, but Lin Kairui was always trying to compare himself to him.
The matter at the beginning was naturally caused by the matter of the class having chosen the “class belle”.
Qiao Mo was a low-key person, so she was not interested in the topic of “class blossoms”. Furthermore, when she was in high school, she could be said to be a girl who “turned a deaf ear to everything outside the window and wholeheartedly focused on reading the Book of Virtue”. She did not want to waste time on this kind of boring evaluation.
But who knew, Luo Luo liked to join in on the fun and even specially registered a class selection for Qiao Mo.
In the end, Lin Kairui, who was supposed to win out over the position of “Class Flower”, received a “threat” from Qiao Mo.
Although the title of “Class Blossom” still fell on Lin Kairui at the end, it was as such.
It had been many years, and everyone had grown up from an eighteen to nineteen year old. Qiao Mo already had her own child, so she didn’t know if Lin Kairui would still care about what happened that year.
As Qiao Mo sat in her seat, she thought gloomily about it. Her lips hooked up into a helpless smile, perhaps she really was the one who was overthinking it, and was treating this young one as a noble.
Lin Kairui might have already forgotten about this.
When the meal was about to start, Luo Luo rushed in, carrying her bag.
“Sorry, sorry. There’s a traffic jam! Everyone has been waiting for a long time! ”
At this table, some people who loved to make a ruckus had already started.
“I’ve waited for you for so long, I’ll punish myself with three cups first!”
Luo Luo had a pretty good alcohol tolerance, and her personality was always very open. When she was in high school, she had already been brothers with many of the boys in her class.
“I will punish myself, punish myself!”
Seeing that Luo Luo was really going to bring the wine cup over to punish her, the man at the table laughed again: “Quickly stop messing around, how can you let a beauty punish herself? “Hurry and get seated.”
Qiao Mo pulled Luo Luo, “Stop drinking, quickly sit down.”
The meal had not started, if he were to drink like this, then tonight, Luo Luo would probably make a ruckus.
The table was full of people.
Everyone began to introduce themselves. After they were all familiar with each other, the atmosphere was lively as they toasted each other.
When he came to Qiao Mo’s side, Xiao Yan skillfully blocked the wine cup that was being toasted to Qiao Mo, and said in a calm and elegant voice that was respectful and appropriate, “It is inconvenient for her body, I’ll drink it for her.”
At this time, the entire table finally noticed the stomach of the man beside Qiao Mo.
Everyone started talking at once.
Some of the more infatuated women squeezed Qiao Mo’s arm and whispered into her ear: “Qiao Mo, your husband is really handsome.”
“Qiao Mo, why does your husband look so familiar?”
“Like a magazine male star.”
Qiao Mo was speechless. She glanced to the side and carefully stole a glance at Xiao Yan, afraid that he would be unhappy with these words. Fortunately, Xiao Yan was not unhappy with these soft discussions.
Qiao Mo scratched her head in embarrassment, “Really? How could he be so handsome? Don’t exaggerate too much. ”
At this time, a female classmate stood up to confirm, “Why are we exaggerating? Your husband is obviously very handsome! People say, don’t they? ”
Qiao Mo’s face was thin, but her ears were hot from everyone’s words.
Well, she admitted, very handsome.
Lin Kairui, who was sitting not far from her, suddenly stood up with a cup of wine.
“Qiao Mo, the two of us have been at odds since high school. At that time, we were still young and too childish, and for the sake of a ‘class’ flower, we even almost had a falling out. I toast you today for this matter. ”
Qiao Mo was startled. She obviously did not expect Lin Kairui to bring up this matter in front of so many people.
Qiao Mo was naturally not a person who did not know how to appreciate favors. She held her juice cup and stood up, “I’m pregnant, I can’t drink, I’ll use juice in place of wine, I’ll also toast to you.”
After toasting, Lin Kairui suddenly smiled, and raised an eyebrow at Qiao Mo, “Qiao Mo, your husband … Not bad. ”
Qiao Mo was startled, and she looked Xiao Yan in the eye.
Qiao Mo only smiled and nodded, and did not say much.
Lin Kairui said unyieldingly: “Qiao Mo, I never thought that you would get married before me. You now have such an outstanding husband and you’re pregnant, I’m really envious of you.”
“When you find something suitable, you’ll be like me.”
Qiao Mo did not understand. Was Lin Kairui saying all this from the bottom of his heart, or did he have some other motive?
Subconsciously, even if she didn’t hate Lin Kairui, she still wouldn’t like him at all.
In the three years of high school, the thing that left the deepest impression on Qiao Mo was something that Lin Kairui had single-handedly created.
At that time, Qiao Mo was extremely self-conscious, timid, and had nothing to be proud of other than her studies.
But even so, in the end, because she was too nervous and failed her university entrance examinations, she did not even manage to pass the 985 major universities. Although the Haicheng University was not bad, it was still worse than one of the best universities in the country.
When he had the chance to study at the University of California, New York City, it was actually like a dream for Qiao Mo to become a famous university.
The high school Qiao Mo was in was the best high school in Seahold, as well as one of the provincial high schools. At that time, she was ranked in the top fifty in the entire school and was considered a good student in the hearts of teachers and parents.
However, only she knew that she had no other choice but to study hard and study diligently.
At that time, Qiao Sheng suffered from a heart disease, so the medical fees were quite high.
Qiao Mo applied for grants for a lot of programs in the school, but she had a strong sense of self-esteem when she was young, so she sneakily applied for grants and incentives from her homeroom teacher, which were just another code name for poor students.
And Lin Kairui, pointing at Qiao Mo in front of the entire class, said that she was relying on a scholarship to support himself.
Even though it wasn’t a shameful or shameful thing to be able to support himself with a grant, he was still too young and weak. In the end, he was still injured.
Xiao Yan noticed the little lady beside him, her expression was strange, she bent down and asked softly: “Are you not feeling well? Do you want to go out and get some fresh air? ”
In the private room, there were a few tables full of people. The smell of cigarettes and alcohol mixed together with the smell of smoke and alcohol.
Qiao Mo was still pregnant, so she needed to be careful.
Qiao Mo smiled at Xiao Yan and shook his head, “I’m fine.”
Beneath the table, their hands were entwined together.
Xiao Yan held her small hand, his ten fingers interlocked.
Suddenly, a warm feeling spread out from his fingertips.
After drinking half of the round, they started drinking more and more. Luo Luo was also the one who took the lead and got drunk, maybe, they would get Xiao Yan to send them back later.
Since Lin Kairui was in high school, he seemed to have a pretty good alcohol tolerance, so he drank quite a lot tonight.
When Lin Kairui was in high school, he had always been a “famous figure”, so it was only natural that he drank a few more cups with his old classmates.
Compared to Qiao Mo who was an unknown person in high school, there were even less people who came to toast. Furthermore, when everyone saw that Qiao Mo was pregnant, they naturally knew not to pour Qiao Mo a cup of wine.
But Xiao Yan was very strict, in the end, when no one came to toast, he was not allowed to drink any more fruit juice.
Qiao Mo caressed the juice cup with her small hand, “I want to drink a little more.”
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, “Do you still want to suffer the same stomachache as a few days ago?”
Those who were pregnant and cold naturally had to drink less.
At this time, the table was bustling with noise and excitement, while Qiao Mo and Xiao Yan were in peace. It was as if they were waiting for their hours in such a lively place.
The pinky under the table was hooked even tighter.
Everyone was drunk, especially Lin Kairui.
She held up a beer bottle, stood on the seat, and took a big gulp from it.
It was unknown when the contradictions were aimed at Qiao Mo.
She stood at her position and suddenly pointed at Qiao Mo with a burst of excitement, “Qiao Mo, where did you find such a good husband? Can the elites of the upper class… Burp … Can you also introduce one to the girls? ”
Lin Kairui had never been a beautiful lady. Since high school, Lin Kairui had always liked to wear leather clothes and pants, she had a wild and seductive beauty, and at this moment, Lin Kairui was drunk and his words were a little ludicrous. Among the students at the side, there were some who came to stop her from speaking nonsense, but Lin Kairui actually brushed away that person’s hands, as if he was going to throw caution to the wind.
Lin Kairui said to everyone in the room: “She, Qiao Mo … In high school, he was just a poor guy with a scholarship. Burp … Poverty-stricken students… How can she know the upper class? ”
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room felt awkward.
Qiao Mo silently sat on her seat, not saying a word.
But Xiao Yan felt that the small hand that was holding onto his finger, had already turned stiff and cold.
Lin Kairui held onto the beer bottle as he stumbled over, he walked to Qiao Mo’s side and looked at the clothes Qiao Mo was wearing, his fingers teasingly pulling at her clothes, “Burp … Heh heh, did you see that? A poor student who was going to study with a grant. Now, any piece of clothing was a magazine. Qiao Mo… Honestly, are you. Relying on her own beauty … have been taken in by this upper-class person? ”
His words were already unbearable to the extreme, but on Qiao Mo’s face, no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.
The coldness on Xiao Yan’s face became more and more serious.
Qiao Mo raised her gaze slightly, and between her brows, there was no anger. Instead, she said to Lin Kairui with a smile that was not lightly nor lightly, “I married because of love, I don’t even have the courage you have.
Lin Kairui laughed heartily, and said mockingly: “Stop with the fun! We’re old classmates, why are you acting so high and mighty? ”
Xiao Yan held Qiao Mo and stood up, he looked at everyone indifferently, and lastly, his cold gaze stayed on Lin Kairui’s drunk face.
His voice was neither salty nor indifferent, but it carried a majesty and grandeur that couldn’t be ignored, “You want Little Mo to introduce you to the upper class, so that you can use this as an opportunity to climb high. However, I forgot to tell you, the eyes of the upper class do not stop at the Queen of Night’s Restaurant. Even if you have external conditions to climb high, no one will be willing to buy it. ”
With just that one light and clear sentence, it had countered all of the humiliation Lin Kairui had done to Qiao Mo with ten times his strength.
Originally, this woman was Qiao Mo’s high school classmate, Xiao Yan did not want to make any judgement about her, but this woman, being able to speak so arrogantly and not being on stage, Xiao Yan could not watch any further, and started to teach her a lesson.
Xiao Yan held Qiao Mo, and said to everyone: “Marrying me, Xiao Mo will be marrying love, not marriage. At least, I have that confidence in myself. ”
Following which, the tall and straight man embraced his wife and left the stage in a carefree manner.
