Chapter 195, Give It to Me
In the end, Zhang Jianjun borrowed a phone, found a car, and moved all three of them back home. Since he didn't know where Xiang Nanfang and Song Qingyuan lived, he had no choice but to move them back to Sha Mao Lane as well.
Zhang Jianjun was very cunning; he kept Song Qingyuan at his home while giving Xiang Nanfang to Wei Shuying.
From that day on, Qiao Yicheng and Xiang Nanfang became much closer. When Song Qingyuan asked about it, Xiang Nanfang readily admitted that the two had indeed entered into a romantic relationship.
Qiao Sanli has chosen her internship company: a securities firm.
After starting work, Qiao Sanli encountered the same problem as Guan Juer, and was even worse off than Guan Juer.
Guan Juer at least had someone to teach and guide her, but Qiao Sanli's internship company was a newly established company with few experienced employees.
This wouldn't have been a big deal, but Qiao Sanli used it as an excuse to spend more time with Zhang Jianjun.
Because Qiao Sanli knew that Zhang Jianjun and Chang Xingyu were seeing patients in the same clinic and spent at least eight hours together every day.
It was the same person Qiao Yicheng had met when he was looking for Zhang Jianjun at the hospital last time, and who mentioned it casually when chatting with a few people at home later.
Since Chang Xingyun got married, Qiao Sanli and Chang Xingyu's relationship has become less close, and they have less contact with each other. Therefore, Qiao Sanli did not know that Chang Xingyu had infiltrated the vicinity of the base and was preparing to raid it.
Qiao Sanli felt that if she didn't do anything more, the soldier brother might become the eldest soldier brother.
To Qiao Sanli's surprise, all her questions were answered.
"Brother Soldier, did you also study finance?"
"I've dabbled in some things before." Zhang Jianjun suddenly realized that he knew too much, almost exceeding the realm of genius, and that he should keep a lower profile in the future.
Qiao Sanli, of course, wouldn't question her military brother. She put away the homework she had assigned herself, took out two movie tickets from her wallet, and said, "Soldier brother, we happen to be free today, why don't we go to the movies together!"
"Going to the movies? Take me with you!" When Qiao Simei got home and saw that her sister wasn't there, she knew that her sister must have gone to see Zhang Jianjun, so she quickly followed her.
Qiao Sanli was a little unhappy, "But I only bought two movie tickets."
Qiao Simei persisted, "I can just buy tickets at the entrance. Like last time we went to the movies, the theater wasn't even half full. There must be some left over!"
Zhang Jianjun stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Why don't you two go take a look? I just got off work, so I could take a break."
Neither Qiao Sanli nor Qiao Simei said anything more, nor did they insist that Zhang Jianjun go to the movies alone.
Ostensibly, the two left to go see a movie, but neither of them actually intended to go.
Just two turns from the door, and it's her house. As Qiao Simei was about to turn the second corner, she grabbed Qiao Sanli's arm: "Sister!"
Qiao Sanli stopped.
Qiao Simei's voice trembled slightly, "Sister! Can you give me the soldier brother?"
Qiao Sanli looked at Qiao Simei with complicated emotions, "I can give up everything else, but not my military brother!"
"But sister, you know me. If I can't get what I've set my mind on, you know how painful it will be for me!" Qiao Simei's voice became a little choked up.
Just as Qiao Sanli was about to say something, a voice that was usually gentle but unusually authoritative today rang out, "Sanli, you go home first! I'll talk to Simei!"
The speaker was Wei Shuying!
Instead of talking at the door, Wei Shuying led Qiao Simei to the riverbank.
We can talk here without being disturbed or eavesdropped on.
Wei Shuying pulled Qiao Simei to sit on a relatively flat rock, stroking her youngest daughter's hair, but her gaze followed the trickling river and looked into the distance.
"Four Beauties, let me tell you a story!"
"Once upon a time, there were two neighboring families. One family had one son, while the other family had two daughters."
"The three of them grew up together, and they were very happy."
"Until one day, they grew up! Growing up brings its own set of troubles, because both daughters fell in love with the boy next door at the same time."
"This boy was quite handsome when he was young. He had a good temper and good character, which made him very likable."
"The boy next door chose the older sister! She even gave him a pair of bracelets as a token."
"Although my sister was unwilling, she was helpless."
"Just before the older sister and the boy were about to get married, the younger sister met a wicked man who tricked her into begging her older sister, threatening to kill herself if she didn't agree!"
"Left with no other choice, my sister had to compromise and break her contract to marry that despicable man."
"Finally, my sister got her wish and married the boy next door and had children."
"But they weren't happy, and they even got divorced. My sister doesn't know what they were thinking. Maybe the younger sister felt that her husband wasn't as good as she had imagined, or maybe their feelings were worn down by the daily grind, but in any case, they weren't happy."
"And my sister's marriage was destined to be unhappy from the very beginning."
"So, Simei, do you think you need to continue like this? Let go! You won't be happy!"
Qiao Simei stared blankly at Wei Shuying, "Mom! You mean you and Auntie...you two?"
Wei Shuying didn't speak, and Qiao Simei knew the answer.
Qiao Simei muttered under her breath, "No wonder you two are always at odds! No wonder Uncle never comes home! No wonder Dad... he really is awful!"
Wei Shuying never expected that the children had all witnessed her affair with Wei Shufang, and even the carefree Si Mei knew so much about it.
The two fell silent, with only the rustling of leaves in the autumn wind breaking the stillness.
After a long silence, Qiao Simei said, "I understand, Mom. I won't let the tragedy you were worried about happen again!"
Wei Shuying thought Qiao Simei had given up, so she stopped trying to persuade her.
But naturally, a visible rift developed between the two sisters.
Qiao Yicheng noticed something was wrong between the two, but they wouldn't say anything to anyone, not even her mother!
Qiao Yicheng: There's a secret that everyone in the family knows, but I'm the only one who doesn't!
Qiao Erqiang: I have been excluded from the Qiao family!
After this conversation, Qiao Sanli noticed that Qiao Simei was no longer so eager to follow her when she went to see Zhang Jianjun.
Mom really knows how to handle things! She must have given Qiao Simei a good beating!
It was Friday again, and Qiao Sanli took out two movie tickets once more. "Soldier brother, there's a new movie, shall we go see it?"
Zhang Jianjun nodded. However, he didn't have high expectations; what movie hadn't he seen these days?
Zhang Jianjun's prediction was correct; he had seen the movie many times, and it was about a certain Ju suing someone!
Zhang Jianjun found the movie boring, but Qiao Sanli watched it intently. Qiao Sanli even seemed to be empathizing with the characters. Between takes, she glanced at Zhang Jianjun's crotch a few times.
Zhang Jianjun suddenly felt a chill in certain areas.
Qiao Sanli seemed to sense Zhang Jianjun's nervousness and reached out to grasp his hand.
Qiao Sanli's hands were a little cold, so Zhang Jianjun took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Finally realizing what had happened, Qiao Sanli felt a little guilty. She had been so engrossed in the movie that she had forgotten about her business! Mustering her courage, she sat on Zhang Jianjun's lap and nestled into his arms, saying, "Brother Jun!"
The dark environment of the movie theater could provide a sense of protection, allowing Qiao Sanli to do things that she wouldn't dare to do in broad daylight.
Zhang Jianjun hadn't expected Qiao Sanli to be so bold, but he still gently put his arm around her waist and pulled her close to him. "You're dressed too thinly. You should wear more clothes when it gets cold!"
"kindness!"
Qiao Sanli had never been so close to Zhang Jianjun since she grew up. Even though the light was dim, Zhang Jianjun could still see the blush on Qiao Sanli's face.
Just as the two were lost in their passion, Qiao Simei knocked on Chang Xingyu's door.
