"I let her go to Han Yi Guan Barbecue Restaurant," he said.
Tang Wanxing sat up excitedly, her eyes full of hope as she looked at Qiao Ziqian, "Can we bribe someone to poison her now?"
Although this method could have been used before, it would have surely brought trouble upon herself.
Now, the person meeting Meng Jingwei was Qiao Ziqian. If anything happened to Meng Jingwei, and Qing Muye investigated the truth, he would only suspect Qiao Ziqian in the end.
Qiao Ziqian looked up, his handsome peach blossom eyes filled with bitterness, "Aren't you afraid Big Brother will find out it was me?"
"I..."
Tang Wanxing paused, then smiled and patted his knee, "Ziqian, you are Ye's brother. You are siblings. Even if he knows you did it, he won't take your life. Besides, with your father around, Ye wouldn't dare to touch you."
In fact, Tang Wanxing had wanted Qiao Ziqian to act before, but she felt too embarrassed to ask.
Later, Qiao Ziqian himself proposed this method, and she naturally agreed.
"If. I said if."
Qiao Ziqian emphasized.
"If..." Tang Wanxing frowned, thought for a moment, then shook her head, "There is no 'if'." In her excitement, she took Qiao Ziqian's hand, "With me and Uncle here, no one in this world would dare to touch you."
A glimmer of starlight appeared in the man's dim eyes at her words.
"Okay. I'll have someone arrange it now."
Qiao Ziqian agreed.
The two sat in the dressing room for a while.
Tang Wanxing held a cigarette, her head bowed in thought.
Although Qiao Ziqian didn't know what she was thinking, he could guess her thoughts from her slightly upturned lips.
"I'm leaving." Qiao Ziqian didn't want to look at her anymore, his heart filled with disappointment.
"Ah? Oh, okay."
Tang Wanxing stood up and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can.
She looked at Qiao Ziqian, stepped forward, and gave him a big hug, "Ziqian, thank you so much. Really!"
It was an主动 hug that Qiao Ziqian had once asked for, but Tang Wanxing had never given him.
Now, because he had agreed to get rid of Meng Jingwei, she was being affectionate.
Qiao Ziqian's hand, which was hanging by his side, twitched slightly as he wanted to feel this moment of tenderness.
In the end, his hand stiffened and then dropped.
Tang Wanxing released him, "Go quickly, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Qiao Ziqian cast a meaningful glance at her, and finally said nothing, walking around her and leaving directly.
As he walked out of the dressing room, each step felt heavy and oppressive.
Qiao Ziqian didn't know how he got into the car, how he arrived at Han Yi Guan Barbecue Restaurant, or how long it took him to appear before Meng Jingwei.
The moment he saw Meng Jingwei, his heart was filled with guilt.
"You're here?" Meng Jingwei smiled gently when she saw Qiao Ziqian, "I ordered your favorite barbecue for you. Come, it's already cooked. Have a bite quickly."
She knew Qiao Ziqian was 'in a bad mood', so she had ordered food in advance and cooked it herself, waiting for him to arrive.
Qiao Ziqian was preoccupied and full of guilt. His downcast appearance made Meng Jingwei think he hadn't come out of his pain yet.
She opened a bottle of beer and placed it in front of Qiao Ziqian, "Here, have some beer first."
Sometimes, some things could only be spoken out after a drink.
Qiao Ziqian took the beer, clinked it with Meng Jingwei, then tilted his head and drank more than half of the beer in one go.
Putting down the cup, he said, "Meng Meng, I want to ask you something..."
