The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus
Chapter 77: Slim Down and Pretty Enough for Joe’s family to recognize.
Chapter 77
Today Qiao Ying returned home. Qiao Yi took the bus to the city center airport especially to meet her. He held flowers and waited outside the arrival gate early.
It was crowded with many people. Afraid that Qiao Ying couldn't find him when she came out, Qiao Yi squeezed to the front and carefully protected the flowers in his hands.
Passengers came out one after another. Qiao Yi looked around carefully for Qiao Ying's figure, but half of the passengers had come out and he still didn't see her.
Instead, he saw an exceptionally eye-catching girl with outstanding temperament. The girl was also extremely beautiful. Her nose was petite and straight. She wore sunglasses, revealing half of her small, delicate and fair face. Her lips were naturally red without any makeup. Her cool white skin was very eye-catching.
The girl dressed simply and casually, giving a sense of freedom, laziness and comfort. She looked quite approachable, but her temperament was too aggressive, making ordinary people not dare to talk to her rashly.
Everyone's eyes were particularly unified.
Some even looked back twice after walking away, guessing she was the rich young miss from some big city.
Having lived in the small town of Yuncheng, Qiao Yi had never seen such a beautiful and temperamental girl. He looked away and continued staring at the exit.
Suddenly, he felt something and looked to the side.
He saw the girl from before appearing next to him, facing him. The girl still had her sunglasses on so Qiao Yi wasn't sure if she was looking at him.
So Qiao Yi looked around and found everyone was looking at him.
Because of the girl, he had somehow become the focus of everyone too.
The girl reached out to take the flowers in his hand.
Qiao Yi protected them and took a step aside at the same time.
He asked, "...Do you need something?" His face felt a little hot, not knowing if it was because of the girl or everyone's eyes on him.
Qiao Ying took off her sunglasses. "Aren't these flowers for me?"
Looking at the face before him that was so exquisite it was unbelievable from the eyebrows to the facial features, Qiao Yi froze. When Qiao Ying had left, she was still chubby. Compared to now, the change could be said to be extraordinary.
He called out uncertainly, "Sis..."
Qiao Yi looked up and down several times in disbelief. "You, you're really my sister?"
"Who else could I be, your brother?"
Qiao Ying took the flowers from him.
Qiao Yi still couldn't believe it. He knew Qiao Ying would definitely look good after losing weight, but didn't expect her to look this good.
In his mind, those who looked so good only existed on TV, right? Not only did she appear before him today, but she was also his sister.
After the shock, Qiao Yi was extremely excited and happy for Qiao Ying.
From young to now, his big sister had been scolded with all kinds of hurtful words, even by their closest family members.
Having the same lame leg as Qiao Ying, he had suffered various personal attacks like her, to the point of being numb about it. He could empathize the most.
"It's been so long since we met, want a hug?" Qiao Ying said.
Without thinking twice, Qiao Yi hugged her tightly. "Sis."
His face couldn't hide his surprise and excitement.
Qin Hanyue was holding Qiao Ying's luggage. When he came out, he saw Qiao Ying hugged tightly by a young boy.
Without thinking, this must be something Qiao Ying allowed, otherwise the other party would have been crippled already.
Previously, there was the rich friend intimately calling her "Baby".
Now, there was this young boy holding flowers to pick her up at the airport.
She sure had a lot of friends of the opposite sex.
Qin Hanyue recognized this young boy. He was the one walking with Qiao Ying when Qin Hanyue first saw her through the car window.
Qiao Yi let go of Qiao Ying and looked at her face again, still not used to the change. "Sis, what did you do these past two months?"
Qiao Ying: "Lose weight, travel."
Qiao Yi nodded. "Then where's your luggage?"
A low male voice picked up his words. "The luggage is here."
Qiao Yi looked up to see a 1.9-meter tall man in a suit standing in front of him. He looked prestigious with sharp, elegant features. One look and anyone could tell he was no ordinary person. Behind him followed several men in black, directly making Qiao Yi think of bodyguards in TV dramas.
It frightened the people around to back away.
Thanks to Qiao Ying, the most prominent figure Qiao Yi had seen in his life so far was their city mayor. Compared to the man before him now, the mayor was clearly not on the same level.
The man had one hand in his pants pocket, casually holding the luggage handle with the other. He was cold and noble, giving enormous pressure.
It made people not dare to act rashly from the bottom of their hearts.
The man reached his hand out to Qiao Yi. His aura fully open. "Qin Hanyue."
Qiao Yi clenched his fists without shaking hands. "Sis, he is...?"
Qin Hanyue raised an eyebrow slightly. At the same time, he silently smiled and withdrew his hand. "Your brother?"
"Someone I met while traveling." This was how Qiao Ying introduced him to Qiao Yi.
Qin Hanyue looked at her, then nodded slightly, already used to this.
Meeting this kind of person while traveling? Qiao Yi knew it definitely wasn't that simple. But then he heard Qiao Ying introduce him to the other party. "This is my brother."
The other party then spoke to Qiao Yi in a very nice tone. "Nice to meet you. I'm sorry I don't have a gift prepared, I'll make up for it next time."
They didn't even know each other. Why would he nicely give gifts? Do the rich and powerful socialize like this? Who said there would be a next time? He must be being polite, Qiao Yi thought to himself.
"Give the luggage to me." Qiao Ying reached out and took the luggage from him, then conveniently pushed it to Qiao Yi.
Seeing Qiao Ying's actions, Qin Hanyue thought: Looks like she really doesn't like this luggage.
He had specially picked this pretty pink luggage for her, thinking a young girl would surely like it.
Clearly, Qiao Ying was not like ordinary young girls.
She didn't even want to hold it.
"My flight back to Beijing is at 3pm. Does Miss Qiao not plan to invite me for tea at her home?" Qin Hanyue said. He had already asked his men to prepare gifts to pay a visit to her family.
Qiao Ying: "I can pay for a nice hotel for Mr. Qin to rest."
Qin Hanyue was dumbfounded, then silently smiled and nodded.
Qiao Ying: "Trust me, you wouldn't want to go to my home. My humble abode is not suitable for your esteemed self."
He would definitely not want to face Li Lilian's greedy and petty attitude.
Qin Hanyue: "Then I'll see you again in Beijing."
Qiao Ying returned his sunglasses. "See you."
Then she left with Qiao Yi.
Qin Hanyue stood in his original spot, watching them leave.
The two took a taxi after leaving the airport.
Noticing Qiao Yi occasionally stealing glances at her, with his hand still clutching his pants pocket, Qiao Ying asked, "Got something for me?"
Qiao Yi hesitated before taking out what was in his pocket.
It was a square, quite beautiful gift box.
Qiao Ying took it and opened it. It was a ladies' wristwatch, quite artistic, retro green, more pleasing than the luggage color.
"You dared to give flowers, what's stopping you from giving this watch?" Qiao Ying put it on as she spoke.
"I wanted to give it to you, but..." Qiao Yi scratched the back of his head, seemingly having made up his mind as he said, "When I start earning money, I'll buy you an even better one."
This watch was bought with money Qiao Yi earned from a summer job. Knowing Qiao Ying wasn't lacking money, this several hundred yuan item was no doubt cheap to her. He had been quite conflicted about it originally. After seeing how gorgeous Qiao Ying had become, he felt even more strongly that the watch was shabby and unworthy of her.
As he spoke, Qiao Yi looked at Qiao Ying. Qiao Ying had her head lowered slightly to put on the watch. Her gentle side profile was perfect to the extreme. The teenage boy's heart unconsciously beat faster as he looked, shy for no reason.
"It's nice." Qiao Ying said.
Qiao Yi pressed his lips together, smiling bashfully, extremely delighted inside.
"How's your foot now?" Qiao Ying asked.
Qiao Yi directly pulled up his pants leg, eyes shining.
He spoke somewhat excitedly. "Look, mom and dad both said I walk much better now. And I even grew 3 cm taller!"
With his foot like this, his height growth would definitely be affected. He had thought 1.7m would be the max. Didn't expect he could still grow.
"Recovery is looking good." Qiao Ying glanced at it.
What was most important was the change in Qiao Yi's mentality. In the past, he would never have dared to pull up this pants leg outside.
"Oh right Sis, Second Sister also got into Peking University. She went to Beijing to report a few days ago." Qiao Yi suddenly said then.
Qiao Ying was indifferent about it.
The Qiao family's old house had been renovated. The courtyard walls and such were rebuilt. The main gate was also replaced with a new one.
"It's mom." Qiao Yi saw the woman walking ahead of them was his mother.
Li Lilian was dressed brightly and splendidly. She had learned to put on makeup, instantly looking ten-odd years younger from behind. She chatted and laughed with the neighbors as she walked home.
The neighbors flattered Li Lilian. She enjoyed it very much.
When they reached the house entrance, Li Lilian finally noticed Qiao Yi walking behind her, with an incredibly beautiful girl beside him.
"Oh, little Yi, this your friend?"
Li Lilian's shrewd eyes sized up Qiao Ying repeatedly.
She thought to herself, how could anyone be born so good looking with such temperament? One look and anyone could tell she was from a wealthy family.
