After the betrothal gift negotiation collapsed, I turned around and married a wealthy man.

Qiao Xing was bored sitting on the sofa, so he took out his phone and scrolled for a while, and somehow fell asleep while scrolling.

When she woke up, she was in the car.

Qiao Xing yawned and was about to close her eyes and go back to sleep. When she realized something was wrong, she woke up suddenly and looked outside. It was already dark.

"Aren't I in the office? Why are I in the car?"

"You fell asleep."

Qiao Xing blinked and looked at the traffic jam in front of him. He took out his phone and looked at the time. It was already past seven o'clock.

"Why don't you wake me up?"

"forget."

He had indeed forgotten that he originally wanted to get off work at around four o'clock, but when he saw that she was asleep, he simply waited for her to wake up before leaving.

Unexpectedly, she didn't wake up until six o'clock, so Qin Ce carried her downstairs.

Qiao Xing opened her mouth wide, "If you... hug me, no one will see you, right?"

She thought of the Yangtze River that was being watched, and she felt bad.

"No, it's a private elevator, no one can see it."

Qiao Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

Qin Ce suddenly glanced at her, "Are you afraid that people will know?"

Qiao Xing was stunned for a moment and hurriedly explained, "No, I'm not afraid of embarrassing you."

Qin Ce didn't say anything, drove the car a little further ahead, and then blocked it again.

Qiao Xing couldn't bear the traffic jam. Her stomach started to churn, she didn't dare to speak, and she would vomit whenever she spoke.

After being stuck in traffic for another ten minutes, Qiao Xing couldn't stand it anymore. "I can't stand it anymore. Can you let me get out of the car and throw up?"

Qin Ce saw that her face was not very good, so he looked around again and saw a square opposite, so he said to Qiao Xing, "You go down first and wait for me in the square opposite. We will go back after eating."

Qiao Xing nodded, opened the car door and got out, walked from the sidewalk to the traffic light at the intersection, and waited for him in the square opposite.

When he turned around, he estimated that he would have to drive forward for half a day, and he would probably find a parking place nearby, park it, and walk over.

Qiao Xing found a chair in the square and sat down. Not long after she sat down, Bai Yi called her.

She quickly picked up the phone, "Team Leader Bai, why did you call me suddenly?"

Bai Yi smiled and said, "Why do you still call me Team Leader Bai?"

Qiao Xing also smiled sheepishly, "That's easy to say, so what should I call you, cousin?"

"It's up to you. It's okay if you call me Xiaobai."

"No, no, I don't dare to do this. It's so late. Why are you calling me?"

Bai Yi said, "Oh, I just got off work. I had called you early, but I was really busy. I finally have some time today, so I gave you a call."

"Oh, then take care of yourself over there and don't tire yourself out."

"Thank you for your concern. I will do it. Wang Ye told me today that his plan for Qin Ce was approved. Didn't he say he would treat you to dinner?"

Qiao Xing suddenly realized that Bai Yi had called her to tell her this.

"I didn't get involved in their own affairs. He should treat you to dinner."

Bai Yi smiled and said, "I think I'll make time to come back this week. I'll treat you and Mr. Qin to dinner then."

"no, I'm fine."

"Yes, we haven't had dinner together for a long time, so let's just get together."

Qiao Xing couldn't refuse this and could only nod in agreement.

Bai Yi's call was mainly to thank her for Wang Ye. Regardless of whether it was Wang Ye's own efforts or not, at least with Wang Ye's own ability, if he didn't know Qin Ce, it would be impossible to get any investment.

Wang Ye and Qiao Xing were already familiar with each other, but he didn't know much about the ways of the world, so he was very casual.

Although both Qiao Xing and Qin Ce knew him and would not care about this, Bai Yi was different from Wang Ye. She must show something, whether it was actions or words.

It's her business whether Qiao Xing cares or not. Whether she does it or not is up to her. In short, she can't let anyone find fault.

Qiao Xing really didn't care about this and didn't understand much, but she was very happy when Bai Yi called her.

The two chatted for a long time. Qiao Xing asked her about her work there, and Bai Yi said it was going well.

Although the place she went to was not very prosperous, the consumption level there was not low, and the people there seemed to be very leisurely and willing to spend money. In addition, Liya's itself was very famous, so as soon as the store opened, the business It's good, otherwise she wouldn't be so busy every day.

Qin Ce finally came over, and Qiao Xing hung up the phone after saying a few words, "Did you park the car opposite?"

"Well, if I turn around, I'm afraid I'll be stuck in traffic until ten o'clock."

This place is one of the five most congested roads in Chongqing. In the past, the traffic jam started at [-] pm every day and lasted until after [-] pm.

Now that the road ahead is being built, it's even more congested.

Qiao Xing snorted and took the initiative to hold his arm, "Then what shall we eat?"

"The two streets here are full of food, go check it out."

This is a commercial street, and it's a bustling area. Whether it tastes good or not is another question, but the restaurants here are very hygienic and have strict food safety controls, so Qin Ce allows her to choose by herself.

Qiao Xing walked around. She hadn't eaten hot pot for a long time, so she couldn't walk when she saw the hot pot restaurant. She looked up at Qin Ce and asked for his opinion.

Qin Ce pondered and said, "Okay, clear soup."

"..."

"Forget it, I don't want to eat it."

Qin Ce didn't force anything and patiently walked with her, treating it like a walk.

Qiao Xing chose over and over again, and finally chose a soup restaurant, which was a restaurant whose specialties were all soups, such as lotus root ribs, kelp ribs, potato ribs soup, and various kinds of ribs.

The main dishes are all soups, so you can eat whatever you want.

After the two sat down, Qiao Xing chatted with him all the time. When she saw the dishes on other tables, she thought of Wang Ye's small hot pot again.

"By the way, do you think the store my cousin mentioned can make money?"

"Should be able to."

"Want to drive to the city?"

Qin Ce picked up the lemonade on the table and poured water for her. "You won't make any money when you drive into the city."

Qiao Xing was puzzled, "Why?"

"The cost is high. There are many office workers in the city, and everyone is very busy. Not many people waste time running to eat this small hot pot. And if you want to make money, you have to increase the price. After calculating the cost, it is almost the same as those hot pot restaurants. It is economical and affordable." The advantage is gone.”

"There are many other reasons. In short, you may not lose money if you choose the right place, but you will definitely not make money outside the city."
