Qiao Qiao’s vision was dark. She couldn’t see anything. The wails became extremely weak in her ears. She didn’t know what Shao Jingmo had done to the Bai family, but she knew that that person must be in a terrible state.

This was because she had just seen Shao Jingmo’s ruthless kick. Blood splattered from the Bai family member’s mouth…

After an unknown period of time, the faint voices faded, and there was dead silence in her sensory world. Vaguely, she thought she heard someone call out to her. She couldn’t tell who the voice came from until Jingcheng removed his hand from her ear. Finally, she heard his voice clearly—

“Guigui.” “It’s all right.”

“Let’s go home.”

She was carefully picked up after that. She didn’t suddenly hang in the air. Every move he made took care of her. She also subconsciously grabbed the arm that was hugging him. The material her fingertips touched was very familiar. She had touched it no less than seven or eight times today.

She knew that it was Shao Jingmo. She grabbed his neck tightly. Although it was pitch-black and she could not see anything, she felt exceptionally at ease when she smelled the faint fragrance of cedar on his body.

“Shao Jingmo?” After confirming that it was him, she still called his name uneasily, wanting to confirm it again before she felt at ease.

Shao Jingmo carried her to the car opposite. Every step he took was heavy and steady. When he heard her uneasy trembling, he slowly tightened his grip on her back and replied in a low voice, “It’s me.”

Qiao Qiao was relieved to hear his voice. She buried her head in Shao Jingmo’s arms and said in a low voice, “1 thought you weren’t coming.”

Shao Jingmo replied, “Have you forgotten what I said?”

“l haven’t forgotten. I’m just afraid, but I won’t be afraid in the future, because you did what you said and didn’t leave me behind.”

With that, Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but rub her face into his arms. She was very insecure now. She could only feel at ease when she kept snuggling into Shao Jingmo’s arms, especially when she heard his steady heartbeat.

She was really scared at first. She was afraid that Shao Jingmo would not save her and let her be taken away by the Bai family. He did not care about her life at all. Therefore, she could only hope. Fortunately, she was not deceived. Shao Jingmo rushed over in time and snatched her back from the Bai family.

In the blink of an eye, Qiao Qiao was carried back to the car by Shao Jingmo.

After Shao Jingmo put Qiao Qiao down, he was about to close the car door and get in from the other side. Before he could step back and close the car door, a small hand reached out and grabbed the hem of his shirt accurately.

Shao Jingmo looked at the uneasy little hand. Her hand hand trembled slightly. Her fingertips were greenish-white from the force, and the green veins on her wrist were clearly visible.

Qiao Qiao didn’t say anything, but her action already expressed her panic after the shock.

Shao Jingmo placed his palm on her trembling hand and leaned over. “I’m not leaving. I’m getting into the car from the other side.”

Qiao Qiao raised her pitiful little face. If she took off her tie, he would definitely see those wet almond m shaped eyes.

With a thought, Shao Jingmo tidied his slightly messy jacket and reached out to take off the tie on her eyes. Seeing the light again, she blinked hard, and tears instantly fell from her eyes. There was a faint red mark at the corner of her eyes, making her look very pitiful.

She cried.

Qiao Qiao gripped the hem of Shao Jingmo’s shirt tightly with one hand and raised the other to wipe her tears. She looked at Shao Jingmo without saying a word, looking pitiful and aggrieved.

Shao Jingmo looked at it for a moment and said, “Sit a little inside.”

When Qiao Qiao heard this, her eyebrows relaxed. She immediately moved into her seat to make a very spacious space for Shao Jingmo. Then, she pointed, her expression seeming to say silently: Done.

Shao Jingmo leaned over and sat in. “Drive,” he said.

There were only Shao Jingmo, Qiao Qiao, and the chauffeur in this car. Jingcheng and the other bodyguards Shao Jingmo had brought were all in the other car.

On the way back to the Qiao residence, Qiao Qiao stuck to Shao Jingmo like this for the first time in her life, especially in contrast to this mornings trip. In the morning, Qiao Qiao sat close to the car window, wishing she could distance herself from Shao Jingmo.

And now, she had been hugging Shao Jingmo’s arm tightly and leaning her head against him. She did not speak along the way.

The car arrived at the Qiao residence. After driving through the gate, they stopped outside the courtyard. The automatic car door slowly opened. Shao

Jingmo glanced sideways at the person beside him and reminded her softly,

“We’re here.’

Qiao Qiao’s lowered eyelashes fluttered a few times, then she slowly raised her eyes and looked out. That was the Qiao family’s villa. She was home, but she didn’t want to get out of the car at all. She just wanted to stay here as if she was escaping.

The sense of security she had sought from Shao Jingmo made her rely on him. She only wanted to hug him with the excuse that she was frightened and needed comfort. Even if Shao Jingmo might be impatient, she was prepared to accept his impatience.

But what she thought didn’t happen. Shao Jingmo was not impatient. He sat quietly with her for as long as she carried him like this. This car had been parked outside the courtyard for at least half an hour. Until she felt bad and called in a soft voice: “Little Uncle.’

Shao Jingmo replied, “Yes.”

Qiao Qiao looked up. “Aren’t you angry?”

Shao Jingmo raised his eyebrows. “Angry?”

Qiao Qiao lowered her head again and said in a low voice, “l shouldn’t have said that I wanted to keep a distance from you and leave the company alone. I shouldn’t have pestered you to sit here with me and not get out of the car. I’m so unreasonable and always do things that give you a headache. Aren’t you angry with me?”

Shao Jingmo did not answer. Instead, he asked her, “Are you afraid?”

At this moment, Qiao Qiao didn’t dare to act tough. She was afraid, so she nodded obediently. He reached over and lifted her chin with his fingertips.

“Don’t be afraid. The Bai family won’t do anything to you for the time being.

Before the deadline of the promise, the Bai family won’t dare or act rashly.”

Qiao Qiao pouted and said in a muffled voice, “There are still two months. Am I going to be constantly threatened by them?”

Shao Jingmo replied firmly, “No.” Then, he continued, “Now, they only dare to probe. However, I’ve already given them the results of this probe.”

The reason why the Bai family appeared in front of Qiao Qiao at this time was not only to remind Qiao Qiao of Qiao Huashengs promise to the head of the Bai family back then, but also because Qiao Qiao had entered the Deep Blue Corporation.

Shao Jingmo would not eliminate all the spies the Bai family had planted in the Deep Blue Corporation. Since the Bai family wanted to control the Qiao family immediately, he would do as they wished.

Now that the Bai family knew that Qiao Qiao had entered the Deep Blue Corporation, they were not sure what Shao Jingmo’s plans were. They would definitely lose their cool and immediately send someone over to investigate the situation.

In the end, he did not manage to find out about the situation and was beaten up by Shao Jingmo.

The news that Shao Jingmo had personally helped Qiao Qiao quickly reached the ears of the Bai family. As for how they would guess, it was the Bai family’s business. It had nothing to do with Shao Jingmo or Qiao Qiao.

After comforting Qiao Qiao, Shao Jingmo got out of the car and stood outside the car door. He reached out to her. “Come here.” Qiao Qiao looked at him quietly, uncontrollably sinking into his gentleness at this moment. Seeing that she did not reach out for a long time, Shao Jingmo said gently, “I’m not angry..

Can you come down now?”
