When Kang Daqiao heard this, she smiled bitterly and said, "What could have happened to me? Did I really go and seek death?"
After saying this, she glared at Kang Xiaoqiao and said, "You actually sent people over to spy on me. Don't worry, I won't die."
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard this, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Then, what are you doing?"
When Kang Daqiao heard this, she looked at her wistfully and said softly, "I'm packing."
When Kang Xiaoqiao saw this, she finally confirmed that it wasn't a big deal. It was probably because Kang Daqiao was in a bad mood, so it was good to pack up the house.
So she said, "Sister, then you should tidy up well. Come back to the capital with me in two days."
"I bought a courtyard house over there. It's very spacious. You'll definitely like it."
When Kang Daqiao heard this, she bit her lower lip and said, "No."
After hearing this, Kang Xiaoqiao immediately said, "Sister, you'd better come with me. It's also good to go for a walk."
When Kang Daqiao heard this, tears once again fell from her eyes. Then, she hurriedly lowered her head and tidied up her things. Although the house was messy, her things were already almost packed up.
After she finished packing, Kang Xiaoqiao saw that her sister did not speak and was crying. She walked around some tables and chairs and walked closer. "Sister, the scenery in the capital is very beautiful. It's not as cold as here. There are also many delicious foods. I'll bring you there."
Kang Daqiao's tears fell even more. In the end, she replied with a heavy nasal voice, "No, little sister. I... won't go."
Kang Xiaoqiao frowned this time. She looked at the things that Kang Daqiao packed and said, "Sister, then why are you packing these?"
Kang Daqiao bit her lower lip with her teeth to prevent herself from crying. After a while, she choked and said, "I'm leaving."
"What?" Kang Xiaoqiao said in surprise. However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Kang Xiaoqiao said with a cold look, "Come in."
Then, she saw a man in a black coat with his hair combed meticulously. He pushed the door open and said respectfully, "Miss, are you done packing?"
Buzz--
Kang Xiaoqiao's heart suddenly trembled. She looked at the person at the door and then at Kang Daqiao who lowered her head to wipe her tears. Kang Xiaoqiao's expression became colder and colder.
...
Without saying a word, Kang Xiaoqiao entered the office with a cold face. This was where Kang Xiaoqiao usually worked. Although she had gone to the capital, her office was taken care of by someone every day.
After Kang Xiaoqiao entered, she saw a person sitting on the sofa. At this moment, he was drinking tea with a calm and elegant expression.
Kang Xiaoqiao could not help but narrow her eyes. Kang Xiaoqiao also knew this person. Although they had not seen each other for a year, how could she forget him?
He was still the same. He was about 1.8 meters tall and dressed in an English style. He wore a suit and leather shoes. His leather shoes were spotless and his hair was well-behaved. If it wasn't Ai Deben, who else could it be?
After seeing Kang Xiaoqiao enter, he stood up with a very friendly smile and said, "Miss Kang, we meet again?"
His smile was friendly and kind. He stretched out his hand, palm facing upwards. He was very gentlemanly. At this moment, Kang Xiaoqiao's face was cold. She glanced at him, raised her leg and walked to the main seat. She did not pay any attention to his etiquette.
This was simply a direct slap to the face. The people around Ai Deben's face turned cold. They took a step forward and were about to speak, but Ai deben raised his hand to stop them.
Then, he said, "All of you can leave."
When the few men in black saw this, they respectfully retreated. After Kang Xiaoqiao sat down, she coldly looked at the person who stood there calmly, as if he was not the one who had been humiliated just now.
And Ai Deben was still the same as before. He smiled amiably and said, "Miss Kang, you seem to have a prejudice against me."
At this time, the diligent assistant served Kang Xiaoqiao a cup of tea and quickly left. Kang Xiaoqiao picked up the teacup and used the lid to move it a few times. As she blew on it, she said, "Prejudice? How is that possible?"
However, after saying this, Kang Xiaoqiao raised her head with a sinister expression. She slammed the teacup onto the table with force and said angrily, "I have a deep prejudice against you."
"Mr. Ai, what do you mean by this?"
"You don't do a good business, but come to me to poach people?"
"Mr. Ai is really bold. Don't you see what kind of place I am? Believe it or not, with a word from me, Mr. Ai, you can't even leave this place?"
Looking at the angry Kang Xiaoqiao, the corners of Ai Deben's eyes couldn't help but twitch. Then, he still smiled amiably and said, "Miss Kang, please calm down."
Kang Xiaoqiao was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. How could she calm down? She threw the teacup onto the ground with all her strength, making a cracking sound.
Then, she said coldly, "Calm down? You want me to calm down?"
"My sister is about to be tricked by you guys, how am I supposed to calm down?"
"Ai Deben, I'm not as gullible as my sister. You better tell me the truth, or else--"
Ai Deben looked at the furious Kang Xiaoqiao and took a deep breath. He thought that Kang Xiaoqiao would be angry, and he also thought that Kang Xiaoqiao would be filled with anger. However, he didn't expect that Kang Xiaoqiao would be so angry.
She didn't even have the basic manners to treat him as a guest. If he couldn't give her a satisfactory reason, he wouldn't be able to leave this place.
It didn't matter who Kang Xiaoqiao was. What was important was that she had married a capable man, and he was a soldier. If he had treated ordinary people, she wouldn't have been so strict. However, to treat a person with a sensitive identity like him, she was able to hit the nail on the head. Moreover... She could even make a contribution.
It should be said that he was already taking a huge risk by standing here.
Ai Deben then stopped smiling and said with a serious expression, "Kang Xiaoqiao, I sincerely apologize for coming here uninvited."
"However, the reason why I'm standing here is because I have my reasons."
"Our great-grandfather is going to die soon. He has been working hard for the country for many years. He has experienced many ups and downs, many misunderstandings and wrongs. He has even lost his family. Now that he is in his twilight years, his only wish is to meet his long-lost granddaughter, who is his only child."
After saying that, he took out a brocade box from the side and handed it to Kang Xiaoqiao solemnly. "Miss Kang, you are a smart person. You can tell at a glance."
Kang Xiaoqiao's heart sank as she listened to the other party's words. When she saw the other party solemnly hand over a small box that was one foot square, Kang Xiaoqiao's heart beat even faster.
Even her eyelids were twitching. She had thought about all of this more than once, but she did not expect this day to come so quickly.
Ai Deben handed over the brocade box with both hands, but Kang Xiaoqiao refused to take it. He could not help but frown and remind her, "Miss Kang?"
"Everything you want to know, you'll know when you open the brocade box."
