Qiao Qianmo bumped right into Ou Jue.
He was holding a bottle of mineral water in one hand, and half encircling her with the other arm.
It wasn’t a full embrace, but realizing the proximity of the gesture seed sowhat intimate, Ou Jue calmly stepped back to put so distance between them.
In these past few days, Miss Qiao, who used to be adored by everyone, has seemingly endured all the hardships that Xiyan once went through.
Even after so many days, faint traces of mosquito bites could still be seen on Qiao Qianmo’s skin.
Ou Jue turned his gaze away, his voice slightly cool, "A grown person, and yet you can still fall down the stairs? Why not just die from stupidity?"
Xiyan, not far away, was slightly stunned.
Because Ou Jue’s tone was very familiar.
Usually... he would use this tone with Xiyan.
Qiao Qianmo panicked instantly, hurriedly apologizing, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t an it."
This "accident" happened so suddenly, Ou’s mother and Ou’s grandmother both ca forward, "Did you get hurt anywhere?"
Qiao Qianmo’s eyes were slightly red, she lowered her head and picked up her luggage, "I’m fine, sorry, please don’t be angry with ."
Watching the originally cheerful and lively child suddenly turn so subdued and cautious in just a few days left Ou’s mother montarily speechless.
This child... how did she change so much so quickly?
Ou Jue glanced sideways in search of Xiyan, noticing she was standing alone by the dining table, and walked straight towards her.
At this mont, Qiao Qianmo hurriedly took sothing out from her bag and then followed Ou Jue.
She was holding a glass jar in her arms while walking towards Xiyan.
"Sister Xiyan, this is for you." Qiao Qianmo said, handing the delicate glass jar to Xiyan.
Xiyan looked over and found the jar filled with many hand-folded origami cranes.
"Inside are 520 origami cranes, and on each one I wrote a blessing for you and Ou Jue’s love." Qiao Qianmo said softly, "Please accept it."
For real?
Over five hundred, how long did it take to fold them all?
For a mont, Xiyan didn’t know what to say.
Should she say thank you??
Ou Jue’s eyes also fell on the glass jar, the colorful origami cranes seed like each was a girl’s confession.
"I still have one more comrcial to shoot, after that I’ll return to Country S." Qiao Qianmo’s gaze remained on Xiyan, "I hope you and Brother Ou Jue find happiness."
Having said that, she humbly bowed to Xiyan and then turned to pick up her suitcase, "Grandma, Auntie, I’m leaving... really, I’m very sorry."
From the mont she entered till now, Qiao Qianmo had apologized over a dozen tis.
Totally different from before.
Although Ou’s mother could be extre when emotionally upset, usually her worldview was quite fair.
As the saying goes, to know one’s mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue.
Moreover, Qiao Qianmo is a relative of Ou’s mother, and seeing the girl like this, she montarily wanted to invite her to stay for dinner.
But today’s al was to thank Xiyan, after all.
Thinking of this, Ou’s mother felt conflicted, the words of invitation were on the tip of her tongue, but out of consideration for Xiyan, she didn’t say them.
Xiyan, standing by, was a bit dazed.
Hmm, had Qiao Qianmo truly changed for the better?
Was it just her own overthinking or...
It just felt strange anyway.
Ou Jue lightly pinched her cheek, "What are you thinking about?"
