Chapter 1697: She and I...there Is No Chance for Us

Shen Xin hesitated for a few seconds and told him the date of departure.

From the hospital to the car, Qiao Chen looked a little dazed.

Even the driver noticed that he was a little abnormal.

"Young Master, are you okay?"

Qiao Chen shook his head: "I'm fine."

"But you look a little tired? Are you going back to Mo's house or Zhushui Villa?"

Zhushui Villa is Mo Xingshu's manor and Qiao Chen's second home now.

Qiao Chen's eyes revealed fatigue: "Go to Jingyang Road."

The small apartment he bought himself is on Jingyang Road.

Except Qiao Mianmian, he has not taken anyone else there.

That small world is his private space.

When he encounters something annoying and doesn't want to face others, he will go there.

"Jingyang Road? Okay, I'll take you there right away." Although the driver felt confused, he glanced at the expression on Qiao Chen's face at the moment through the rearview mirror and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

This young master seems to have a good temper.

He was gentle in his words and deeds, and was very polite to his subordinates, not putting on airs with them.

However, the driver was often responsible for picking up and dropping off Qiao Chen, and was very good at observing people's words and expressions, so he could naturally tell whether Qiao Chen's personality was really gentle or not.

This young master looked good-tempered and easy to talk to.

But in fact, he was not that easy to talk to.

If he was upset, he would also lose his temper.

At the banquet.

Qiao Mianmian sent a WeChat message to Qiao Chen to ask about Shen Xin's condition.

After a while, Qiao Chen replied to her: The doctor said her condition was not very serious, and she would be fine after staying in the hospital for a while.

Qiao Mianmian was a little relieved when she saw his reply.

She had met Shen Xin several times, and because she had a good impression of Shen Xin, she didn't want such a beautiful and lovely girl to have any problems with her legs.

Qiao Mianmian: Are you still in the hospital now?

Qiao Chen: I left.

Qiao Mianmian looked at the time and was a little surprised: Why didn't you stay in the hospital for a while longer. At this time, girls are very fragile in their hearts and need someone to care and take care of them. If you don't try to show off now, when do you want to?

Knowing her brother's feelings for Shen Xin, Qiao Mianmian spoke more directly.

After she sent this message, Qiao Chen replied to her several minutes later.

Qiao Chen: I left because she said she was sleepy. Besides, I don't think I need to show off.

Qiao Mianmian immediately saw that there was something wrong with this sentence.

She quickly asked: Why? Don't you like her? Why don't you like her now?

Qiao Chen: Sister, when Shen Xin's leg recovers, she will leave Yuncheng. I listened to your advice and tried to keep her, but she said she had to follow her family's arrangements. Sister, she and I... there is no possibility for us.

Qiao Mianmian saw this reply and showed a surprised look on her face.

As early as when Qiao Chen talked to her before, she knew that the friend he was talking about must be Shen Xin.

She also guessed that Qiao Chen would try to keep her.

But she didn't expect such a result.

Qiao Chen: Sister, I won't come back. If there is anything, please ask my brother-in-law to help me deal with it.

Qiao Mianmian guessed that Qiao Chen was probably in a bad mood.

After she replied, she felt a little hungry and picked up a plate of snacks on the table.

A shadow fell in front of her eyes. She looked up and saw Tang Ya holding a glass of red wine in her hand and sitting down opposite her.
