Chapter 343 Rejecting 100 Million

Time is flowing away every minute and every second, but the speed varies from person to person. In the blink of an eye, it was already the seventh day since Qiao Dingxiang's funeral. The first seven days were the big days. Song Xi always remembered that she had asked George Sheng a day in advance if he was going to the cemetery to burn paper.

George Sheng said: "It depends on whether you have time. If you don't have time, you don't have to go. It's OK if you feel like it."

Song Xi said: "I have already moved to class."

Qiao Dingxiang burned his head for seven days. Relatives from both the Qiao family and the Ren family came. They brought dozens of carts with wreaths, at least 500, yellow paper, foreign bills, and all kinds of bricks and paper. They couldn't even count them, as if they were afraid that Qiao Dingxiang wouldn't be able to dominate below.

The place where the paper was burned was filled with flames. Seven or eight men gathered around the fire with long iron rods, turning them at any time.

There was a heat wave in the air, mixed with black confetti all over the sky. Many people couldn't stand it and had already retreated to the outer circle.

Song Xi stood next to George Sheng, and accidentally choked and coughed. He glanced sideways at her and said, "No need to stay here, get in the car, and we'll leave in a while."

Song Xi shook his head and wanted to say it was okay, but his coughing did not stop and his eye circles were a little red.

Yuan Bao came over and handed over a tissue and a bottle of water. Song Xi walked away two meters away, took a breath, and drank some more water before suppressing it.

Before she could walk back again, her phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a text message. The key sender surprised her, Dongxu's mother.

Song Xi has known Gu Dongxu for so many years, and is no stranger to Qiao Shuxin, but this is the first time she has received a text message from Qiao Shuxin. When she clicked on it, it said: Song Xi, it will end in a moment. Do you have time? I have something I want to talk to you about.

Song Xi instinctively raised her head and looked around, but there were too many people, and she couldn't see Qiao Shuxin for a while.

Holding the water under her arm, Song Xi quickly replied: If you have time, Aunt Qiao.

Less than ten seconds after the text message was sent, Qiao Shuxin replied: See you at the Champs Elysees. Please don't tell Dongxu first.

Song Xi couldn't guess why Qiao Shuxin was looking for her, so she replied: I know, don't worry, I won't tell anyone.

Qiao Shuxin replied: Thank you.

Song Xi bit the bullet and said: You're welcome.

The reason why she had to bite the bullet was that Song Xi felt that the relationship between the two was a bit awkward now, which was different from her and Gu Dongxu. She and Gu Dongxu were joking, but no matter what, the relationship would not change, but Qiao Shuxin treated her, who Got it.

Putting away the phone, Song Xi turned around and took two steps forward. He found that George Sheng was missing from where he was, and only Yuan Bao was standing there. Walking over, Song Xi asked, "Where is George Sheng?"

Yuan Bao said: "I was called away by my fourth uncle. I'll be here soon."

Song Xi said: "It's okay, I'll just ask."

Yuan Bao was such a smart person, so he immediately whispered: "There are so many people we are not familiar with, do you feel embarrassed?"

When Song Xi was told the central issue, he smiled and nodded.

Yuan Bao whispered: "Many people don't meet each other when they are alive. When there are the most people, there are funerals and paper burning."

There was no concealed sarcasm in his tone. Song Xi looked at the flames in front of him and continued: "This is because you are powerful. Otherwise, how many of you would stand here and be roasted and choked sincerely?"

Hearing this, the sarcasm in Yuan Bao's eyes became even stronger. Everyone was a group of sensible people, they were just pretending to be confused.

With such a large amount of things, the fire burned for a full hour. In the middle of the fire, Song Xi asked Yuan Bao: "Aren't Jiamin and the others here?"

Yuan Bao replied: "Brother Sheng didn't let them come, so as not to divide into more gangs."

Song Xi suddenly remembered that she had a special status and everyone had to cover it up when they met, which was really troublesome.

After burning the paper, everyone went back to their cars. George Sheng asked, "Where are you going?"

Song Xi said: "If you are on your way, please drop me off near Central Road."

Yuan Bao had already started the car, and George Sheng said, "Aren't you going back to the hospital?"

Song Xi said: "Buy some things and go to work in the afternoon."

After a pause for a few seconds, George Sheng said: "I still have some time. Within half an hour of your shopping, we can still send you back to the hospital."

Song Xi thought of Qiao Shuxin and said hurriedly: "No, you are busy with your business, I will take a stroll."

Yuan Bao, who was driving in the front seat, sighed secretly. He felt sorry for Song Xi. He wondered if missing George Sheng's initiative would be equivalent to missing 100 million?

The car left Ningshan Cemetery and headed towards the city. As it passed near Central Road, Song Xi looked out the window and said, "Yuanbao, please pull over."

Yuanbao turned on the turn signal and pulled over. Song Xilin said goodbye to the two of them before getting out of the car. Yuanbao smiled and raised his hand, while George Sheng ignored him as usual.

Just as he was about to close the car door, Song Xi suddenly thought of something. He bent over and looked at the person in the back seat and asked, "About what time will you be back in the evening?"

George Sheng said lightly: "Not sure."

Song Xi said: "Then I'll prepare the food. You can eat it by yourself when you come back in the evening, or should I send it to your company after get off work?"

George Sheng's long eyelashes flickered, and he said as usual: "Send it to the company."

Song Xi responded: "Okay."

After that, he closed the car door and turned to leave.

Yuan Bao looked at George Sheng's face in the rearview mirror. George Sheng said nothing, but a smile appeared in Yuan Bao's eyes.

Song Xi made sure that George Sheng's car drove away, then crossed the sidewalk and walked a few hundred meters to the Champs Elysees.

When she arrived at the door, she called Qiao Shuxin, who told her the location. Song Xi hung up and went upstairs to a closed private room.

After knocking on the door and entering, Song Xi saw Qiao Shuxin and raised the corners of her lips. Just as she was about to say hello, Qiao Shuxin had already stood up from her seat and said with a smile: "Brothers and sisters, you're here so quickly."

Hearing this, the smile on Song Xi's face froze immediately. She was stunned for three seconds and then said: "Aunt Qiao, please don't call me that."

Qiao Shuxin said without changing her expression: "We have known each other for such a long time. I only found out a few days ago that you and Zhi Sheng are from the same family. Dongxu is very strict and refuses to say anything no matter how he asks. It is in vain that you have called me aunt for so long. In fact, You should call me sister."

Qiao Shuxin held one of Song Xi's hands with a friendly expression and friendly tone.

Song Xi waved her hands anxiously: "Aunt Qiao, we have known each other for so many years, and you have always been an elder in my heart. Besides, Zhi Sheng and I are getting married, and we don't plan to publicize it to the public, so you see... let's just stick to the original name. , I still call Dongxu brother in private."

Qiao Shuxin glanced at Song Xi angrily: "You are so ridiculous. In terms of seniority, Dongxu should call you little aunt... Hey, forget it, you are right, you don't want outsiders to know about your marriage, then we will do it in front of outsiders in the future. The noodles are still the same as before.”

Song Xi quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes."

Qiao Shuxin refused to let go of Song Xi's hand and looked directly at her. After a few seconds, she smiled and said, "You are so lucky, kid. I didn't expect that we would really become a family."

Song Xi tried her best to laugh. After standing for a long time, she took the initiative and said, "Auntie, sit down and let's sit and chat."
