Chapter 852 Is this good news?
In the evening, in the hot pot restaurant, the three of them ordered a lot of meat and side dishes. For people living in the north, this is definitely an indispensable meal for every family in winter.
After drinking chicken soup in the afternoon, Qiao Yingzi's mood improved greatly and she smiled more often.
While Chen An was out answering the phone, Qiao Yingzi whispered, "Taozi, I helped you collect important intelligence. How are you going to thank me?"
"About Brother Chen?" Huang Zhitao immediately became interested and asked.
"Of course, otherwise I'll ask you for a favor."
"Yingzi, please tell me quickly. As long as the information is valuable, I will treat you to hotpot alone when we return to the capital."
"Brother Chen must have more than one girlfriend."
"Did you see it?"
Qiao Yingzi shook her head. "I haven't seen them, but I can be sure that there are definitely more than one or two, at least three or more."
"Yingzi, what you said is groundless. The spicy hotpot is not even worth a bowl."
"Who told you that I have no proof?"
Seeing her best friend had something to say, Huang Zhitao felt like she was being scratched by a cat, and urged her, "Hurry up and tell me, don't keep me in suspense, dear Yingzi."
"When Brother Chen and I were at the bar in the afternoon."
"Did you guys go to the bar together?"
Qiao Yingzi rolled her eyes, "Do you want to listen more?"
"Say, you say."
"Brother Chen answered the phone four times in total, twice in front of me and twice to the side." Qiao Yingzi analyzed with a look of a little Zhuge, "If you think about it carefully, we are all students. Even if it is a business matter, there is no need to avoid us, except when it comes to my girlfriend."
"Do you think that since Brother Chen is so outstanding, his girlfriend could be any worse? Someone as outstanding as him is unlikely to be clingy. And with the phone call just now..."
After listening to her best friend's distraction, Huang Zhitao thought about it and felt that she still agreed with it. She felt a little depressed, but not discouraged.
“This is actually quite good.”
"What? Taozi, are you crazy? Which eye of yours can see this?"
Huang Zhitao first looked back to make sure Chen An hadn't come back, then lowered her voice and said, "As far as I know, the only rumored girlfriend of Brother Chen is the singer named Lin Na. She's already 28 years old, and she'll be 29 after the Chinese New Year."
"And I'm only eighteen after the Chinese New Year, eleven years younger than her."
Qiao Yingzi blinked and couldn't help but teasing, "Taozi, have you watched too much Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Do you think Brother Chen's girlfriend is Zhuge Liang?"
"Not entirely." Huang Zhitao said firmly: "I have thought about it before. From the first time we met to the chats with Brother Chen later, he has always treated me as a child. Moreover, Brother Chen is very mature, and his girlfriend is a few years older than him. It is obvious that he likes mature people."
"Then you are even more exhausted?"
"Tsk, you're stupid. This shows that my age advantage is basically comparable to all the women around him. When I graduate from college and start working, I will be able to kill those women in seconds with my white coat and mature charm. After all, they will be in their thirties by then."
"And I saw it online. As men get older, their aesthetic tastes change. When they are young, they like older sisters. When they are older, they like older lolis. Do you understand?"
"That's not right. I remember what was written in the romance novels: when men get older, they like eighteen-year-old girls. You will be a daylily by then."
Huang Zhitao asked angrily, "Yingzi, can you give me some positive energy instead of pouring cold water on me? Are we still good sisters?"
"Don't, don't be angry, I'm doing this for your own good."
"Anyway, the information you provided is very valuable, so I have to treat you to this hot pot."
Oh? Qiao Yingzi felt that she had just spent so much time talking, but it would be more effective to just say that Taozi and Brother Chen were a perfect match. It was estimated that if she just said this, she would get at least two, if not three, hotpot meals.
"By the way, Yingzi, I have good news to tell you." Seeing that her best friend was in a good mood, Huang Zhitao spoke with a smile.
Qiao Yingzi asked expectantly, "What good news?"
"Your father was beaten, and he and your aunt were taken to the police station."
"What? Taozi, are you kidding me?"
"Why am I kidding you, this is what my uncle told me."
"Is my dad okay? Where is he injured?"
"It's not serious, just a superficial injury."
Qiao Yingzi felt relieved, but was also speechless. She felt that she could no longer keep up with her best friend's train of thought.
"What kind of good is this..." Qiao Yingzi was stunned when she was talking, and looked at Huang Zhitao in surprise, "My mother was also taken to the police station. Did she beat up my father?"
It’s no wonder Qiao Yingzi thinks this way. After all, from childhood to adulthood, in her impression, Qiao Weidong has always been timid in front of Song Qian.
Especially in the past six months, it has been even worse. She has been kicked out of the house countless times, and being scolded is commonplace. Every time, her father coaxes her with a smile, just to accompany her and help her share the pressure from her mother. This is also one of the reasons why she is dissatisfied with her mother.
"It's not what you think, but it is indeed related to my aunt..." Huang Zhitao simply recounted the story.
Qiao Yingzi felt very distressed after hearing this. Although she was not at the scene, she could imagine that Old Qiao must have made this choice in order to protect himself and that his attempts to persuade his mother failed.
"Yingzi, your dad really loves you. In order to prevent Aunt Song Qian from coming to Shanghai, your uncle put down all the flowers and stared at your aunt. If she dares to buy a plane ticket, your uncle will directly press the button to board the plane..." Huang Zhitao was very envious.
Qiao Yingzi was very touched. She took the cell phone beside her and was about to turn it on to ask about her father's condition, but she hesitated for a few seconds and then held back. She wanted to enjoy this feeling of freedom for a few more days.
The pressure that also came from Song Qian came upon her again, casting a shadow over her mood that had improved because of the chicken soup.
Huang Zhitao was missing her parents and didn't pay much attention to her best friend's situation.
