Chapter 169 (Part 2)

The weather was getting hotter and hotter. When the chirping of cicadas sounded from the trees again, Da Qiao had graduated.

On the day of the graduation photo shoot, everyone in Qiao Family came.

The students in the department were very envious when they saw Da Qiao's family.

In recent years, traveling had become much more convenient than before and everyone's life was getting better day by day. Despite this, they weren't rich enough. Therefore, for those students whose families weren't in the capital, none of their family members came over when they graduated.

Those who attended were all families in the capital or not far from the capital or families with a relatively well-off economy.

But even those who live in the capital, there are three or four family members at most. Like Da Qiao's grandparents, parents, siblings, uncles and aunts, and even future mother-in-law and future brother-in-law, there wasn't a second one!

The previous graduates had never uniformed their costumes when taking graduation photos. But this year's students of the Department of Finance and Economics, all the men wore Chinese tunic suits, and the women wore white dresses under Da Qiao's suggestion.

Because there were only four girls including Da Qiao in the whole grade, Da Qiao personally took care of it and gave each of them a white dress of the same style.

When the girls saw the white dresses, they hugged Da Qiao in delight. They chattered and laughed non-stop.

While the boys weren't so lucky. There were too many people. Da Qiao couldn't give it away even if she wanted to. Besides, there was a jealous Huo Chi by her side. So she didn't dare to give it away either.

So most of the boys choose to rent clothes. Some of them have better conditions. They buy a set or borrow from family members.

When it was time to take pictures, they stood together in a uniformed costume. A beautiful sight that made graduates from other departments jealous.

The four girls were arranged in the middle position in their black tunic suits paired with white dresses. Male were spirited, while female were delicate. What a beautiful picture.

KACHA!

The photographer captures the smiles of everyone.

Then someone shouted: "Students of the 82nd class, we graduated today!"

As soon as the sound came out, people cheered along.

Some people embraced each other, some people had tears in their eyes. Everyone bidded farewell, saying that they must reunite in the future.

Although Da Qiao only joined this class in the third year, everyone dotes on her and treats her like a little sister because she was the youngest, beautiful, and had a good personality.

So after the group photo was taken, many people came to her to take pictures together.

People who wanted to take pictures with her lined up. The scene was very spectacular. Once again, it attracted the attention of other departments.

Cai Ru Nan enviously remarked: "Da Qiao is so pretty today. My God, she looks like a fairy when she smiles. My God, her figure is so perfect. If I can be one-tenth as good-looking as her, I can shorten my life by ten years!"

Because Da Qiao skipped a grade for a year, Cai Ru Nan was now a third year student and will not graduate until next year.

But because she had a good relationship with Da Qiao, she will definitely come to support Da Qiao as her friend today.

When Song Yu Lian, who was standing by, heard this, her eyes almost rolled to the sky.

In the past three years, except for the beginning, the relationship in the dormitory was very tense. Later, after Wang Xian Xian's Uncle's incident, Wang, Song and Chen trio had disbanded and the relationship in the dormitory was eased in turn.

After Wang Xian Xian realized that she wasn't that important, she put all her mind on her career and wanted to surpass Da Qiao in grades.

Although she had never been able to surpass Da Qiao, her hard work had been rewarded generously.

On the contrary, Song Yu Lian didn't change her sly thoughts from the beginning to the end. Her family had no background and she wasn't excelling as an individual. So she only dared to be jealous of Da Qiao in her heart.

Hearing Cai Ru Nan's words now, she despised Cai Ru Nan as Da Qiao's licking dog. At the same time, she envied Da Qiao's beauty and popularity.

According to her relationship with Da Qiao, she shouldn't attend the finance department's graduation photos today. But a year ago she dumped her previous match and then quickly found another match in the finance department.

This match happened to be in the same class as Da Qiao but it was the class next door. At this moment, she was supporting her match as a family member.

At this time, when she saw everyone running to take a photo with Da Qiao, she felt very uncomfortable. Her eyes turned red like rabbits with jealousy.

Her mind spun. She lifted her skirt up and walked towards her match.

"Elder Brother Gu, look how profusely you are sweating. Quickly, wipe off your sweat!"

Her partner was called Gu Yong. Because she had heard Da Qiao call Huo Chi elder brother, she followed suit. It happened that her match liked this very much and the relationship between the two was very sticky and sweet.

Sure enough, upon hearing her words, Gu Yong's face bloomed.

It was just that this flower was a little prickly on the eyes as Gu Yong's nose was crooked and his teeth were buckled. His appearance was unordinary ugly.

Since he was this ugly and Song Yu Lian was still willing to be with him, it went without saying he had good points. That was, his dad was rich.

In order to become the focus of today's occasion, Song Yu Lian saved money for more than two months, gritted her teeth, and bought the red dress she was wearing.

The skirt was reached below the knee. A length that was somewhat noticeable in this day and age.

So when she walked over, many boys' eyes fell on her figure.

Song Yu Lian's face wasn't great, but her figure was very superb. She got the curves, especially one certain area that was uniquely bountiful. It trembled as she walked. This was why her partner was willing to be with her.

Cai Ru Nan heard Song Yu Lian's whispering voice and all the goosebumps on her arms rose.

Just at this time, Da Qiao had finished up with the group photo. So Cai Ru Nan hurried over and whispered, "Da Qiao, from I see that woman is acting up again!"

Da Qiao glanced at the direction she was pointing at and quickly looked away. Light-hearted, she replied: "She didn't provoke you, why do you hate her so much?"

Cai Ru Nan curled her lips and answered, "I don't know why. I always find her an eyesore!"

Song Yu Lian noticed the two's gazes and grinned even wider.

"Scratch your head and make a pose!" Cai Ru Nan spat.

Da Qiao shook her head with a helpless expression, feeling that the two of them were natural rivals.

Just as she was thinking this, she saw Song Yu Lian and her partner walking towards them side by side.

Walking up to Da Qiao, Song Yu Lian glanced left and right and made a surprised expression: "Da Qiao, didn't Senior Brother Huo come to take part in your graduation photo?"

Cai Ru Nan became angry when she saw her pretending. She opened her mouth to retort but was held down by Da Qiao.

Da Qiao shook her head: "No, he went on a business trip to the south."

She also felt that it was quite unfortunate that Huo Chi didn't come to the once-in-a-lifetime university graduation ceremony. But she didn't complain in her heart because work was the most important thing.

Song Yu Lian was even more surprised: "Senior Brother Huo is too much. It's not me exaggerating. When I graduate next year, no matter how busy my Elder Brother Gu is, he will definitely come back to participate. Isn't that right, Elder Brother Gu?"

As soon as Gu Yong walked over, his squinted eyes were glued to Da Qiao's face. He only came back to his senses when he heard Song Yu Lian's words and rapidly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes."

Song Yu Lian looked proud: "Da Qiao, you heard me. I think the reason why Senior Brother Huo didn't rush back is because he didn't pay enough attention to you. You must not let him go lightly later!"

Cai Ru Nan rolled her eyes until only the whites of her eyes remained: "Ugh... I don't know why, but I suddenly feel nauseous!"

When Da Qiao heard this, she almost burst out laughing.

Seeing the two's reaction, Song Yu Lian was so angry that her face turned red!

Suddenly, her mind turned again. She looked at Da Qiao and requested, "Da Qiao, can I trouble you to take a photo of me and my Elder Brother Gu? My Elder Brother Gu brought his own camera."

Da Qiao nodded: "Sure."

Song Yu Lian handed over the camera and repeatedly warned: "Da Qiao, you must hold it steady. This camera is very expensive. If it falls, I'm afraid you won't be able to compensate for it!"

"Oh, by the way, do you know how to use a camera? Do you want me to teach you? This is an advanced thing. Many people have never even seen it!"

She opened her mouth and chattered non-stop. All this time, Da Qiao didn't bother to pay attention to her, just quietly watching her pretend.

Song Yu Lian talked for a while before she noticed that no one went along with her. Immediately, she was embarrassed and irked.

She linked Gu Yong's arm and came under a big tree. Then she raised her head at a 45-degree angle toward the sky and exclaimed, "Elder Brother Gu, look at how blue the sky is today!"

Then she ordered Da Qiao like a superior ordering a subordinate: "Da Qiao, you can take pictures. Pay attention, take pictures of the whole big tree behind and the blue sky here. Can you take pictures?"

Da Qiao let out a "hmm".

Cai Ru Nan was furious when she saw this and felt that Da Qiao's personality was too soft. At this time, she should smash the camera on the woman's face and let her eat sh*t!

Song Yu Lian felt even more proud when she saw that Da Qiao listening to all her commands.

Just as she was posing and repeating the words the sky was so blue', a lump of bird droppings fell from the tree and landed in her mouth.

KACHA!

Da Qiao took the opportunity to press the button and took a perfect picture of the bird dropping in her mouth.

Several people were stunned.

Just now Song Yu Lian made such a big movement, everyone naturally noticed. Now they witnessed bird droppings falling into her mouth, the onlookers were also stunned.

The next moment, before Song Yu Lian could react, Cai Ru Nan burst into laughter: "Hahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. My god, Song Yu Lian, what just fell into your mouth is bird poo, right? Hahahaha..."

Song Yu Lian: "..."

Her mind returned and repeatedly spat bird droppings on the ground again and again.

Everyone looked at the ground and saw a bunch of disgusting things. Then the laughter also followed.

Song Yu Lian's face turned red, white, green and black. She was so furious that she almost died on the spot!

Her partner Gu Yong felt extremely ashamed, left her, and ran away.

Song Yu Lian was angry and anxious. She wanted to run after him.

Da Qiao stopped her at this moment and stated in a calm voice, "I'll give you the camera back. Oh, by the way, I happened to take a picture of the bird droppings falling into your mouth just now."

Song Yu Lian: "..."

Seeing this, Cai Ru Nan laughed loudly again.

She felt Da Qiao was too black-bellied!

This was more embarrassing to Song Yu Lian than smashing the camera on her face. It felt so refreshing to slap her in the face!

Song Yu Lian stared at Da Qiao. Her teeth were about to shatter from gritting with hatred.

But before she could speak, a hot air balloon suddenly floated in the sky.

The hot air balloon floated towards the place where everyone was taking pictures from far away. This scene immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Look, there's a hot air balloon! There seems to be someone on it!"

"Oh my God, this was the first time I've seen a hot air balloon!"

"Me too. They seem to be landing. Oh my god, are they from our school?"

All eyes were on the hot air balloon, for fear of missing any details.

The hot air balloon descended lower and lower. When it reached a height of five meters, everyone could clearly see the people above!

Someone immediately recognized one person: "It's Huo Chi!"

Huo Chi was supposed to graduate this year, but he skipped a grade like Da Qiao.

As a famous figure in the school, there weren't many people who didn't know him when he was in school. Later, he skipped a grade and started his own company. The pager and cellular phone he created became a successful model that school professors often talked about.

In the eyes of many people, he was already an insurmountable divine existence.

Everyone thought he would come for the graduation photos this time. Unexpectedly, he didn't. Some people even speculated that their relationship spiraled downward.

Unforeseen, this moment slapped their face.

What spiraled down? They were playing luxurious surprises!

Da Qiao was also surprised when she saw Huo Chi inside the hot air balloon.

This baddie actually lied to her again. She thought he wouldn't come!

Huo Chi stood in the basket of the hot air balloon, looking at her with a pair of dark eyes. It was filled with tenderness.

The hot air balloon finally landed on the ground slowly.

Huo Chi opened the door of the hanging basket and walked out.

What made everyone even more surprised was that a dog and an old hen walked out behind him.

Everyone:? ? ?

The dog, they can still understand, but what was the story with the old hen?

At this time, they both had a puffed chest posture as they followed behind Huo Chi. They waddled toward Da Qiao.

Everyone was shocked by this scene!

What the hell was going on?

When Da Qiao saw Pi Pi and Gu Gu, the corners of her mouth rose even more.

Step by step, Huo Chi approached Da Qiao with his long legs.

Today he was wearing a formal black suit. The suit was handmade; quite exquisite and noble. It further set off his imposing aura, like a dragon and a phoenix among men.

Everyone's eyes were on him. Some were envious, some were admiring.

Song Yu Lian, who stood next to Da Qiao, was bubbling with envy and jealousy to the point of nearly exploding.

Cai Ru Nan walked over and dragged Song Yu Lian away from Da Qiao's side.

While struggling, Song Yu Lian scolded her: "Cai Ru Nan, let go. What are you doing?"

Cai Ru Nan retorted back without giving face: "What? Don't you see her match coming over? What are you, a bird-poop-eater standing by for? Don't you feel ashamed?"

When the people around heard this, they laughed again.

Song Yu Lian glared at Cai Ru Nan. Her face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Huo Chi walked up to Da Qiao, untied the small bag hanging around Pi Pi's neck and took out a red box from it.

He opened it, knelt down on one knee, and declared: "The greatest gratitude in this life is that Heaven sent you to my side. Nian Nian, thank you for coming to my side. Thank you for accompanying me through all the years. Thank you for constantly supporting me. I want to protect you, guard you, and slowly accompany you white hair. So, Qiao Nian Nian, will you marry me?"

When he walked toward her, her heart went wild.

She had a vague premonition in her heart that he would propose to her. But when she saw him kneel down on one knee, her eyes still couldn't help reddened.

She turned to look at her family.

Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan stood side by side, nodding toward her with a smile on their lips.

Lin Hui took Qiao Zhen Jun's hand and smilingly nodded at her.

Qiao Zhen Jun's eyes were red. However, he wasn't moved. But angry!

When Huo Chi didn't come to Da Qiao's graduation ceremony, he was fuming, feeling that he didn't value Da Qiao.

Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly appeared in the middle and then proposed without warning!

So despicable!

So cunning!

His unexpected way of proposing marriage was really infuriating!

The twins and little Dong Yun looked at each other and sighed.

They used to be young and thought that when their elder sister got married, they would marry along with their dowry. But as they got older, they realized that it was impossible.

So now seeing their elder sister getting proposed, they could only sigh in their hearts.

Qiao Dong Wan held little Mi Bao in her hand, with the corners of her mouth raised.

Elder Sister was the best sister. She deserved the best happiness in the world.

Although she felt a little regretful that her elder sister would no longer be able to accompany her as before after she got married, she was still happy for her elder sister.

Qiao Dong Ying was also very excited.

She watched the two of them walk all the way. It was only natural for them to come together.

How wonderful!

Shen Tian You, who was standing beside her, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Elder Sister Ying, you don't have to envy Da Qiao. I can give you such surprises and happiness in the future!"

Qiao Dong Ying's face instantly turned red: "Shut up!"

Shen Tian You pitifully replied: "Elder Sister Ying, can't you love me more?"

Qiao Dong Ying rolled her eyes at him.

She had always rejected him before. Because the age difference between the two was too great. However, this guy was like a gum. Once stuck on, forget about getting rid of it!

Whenever he had time, he ran out from school to find her, brought her food, and told her all kinds of silly jokes.

Gradually, she got used to his presence.

People were born lonely. She often felt lonely, even when she was surrounded by her family.

Family members had their own lives and career. The arrival of Shen Tian You filled up this loneliness.

He was always there when she was unhappy.

Gradually, she stopped resisting.

Dai Shu Fang's eyes were also red. Unlike Qiao Zhen Jun's anger, she was excited and moved.

Truly wonderful!

Son was amazing!

Da Qiao was finally going to be her daughter-in-law!

Zhong Kang De stood next to her with little Wu-er in his arms, reminiscing about New Year's Eve when he proposed. His eyes were also full of smiles.

Little Wu-er leaned forward, wanting to go to Da Qiao's side: "Go to Elder Sister... there!"

Dai Shu Fang leaned over and kissed Youngest Son on the cheek: "From now on, you can no longer call Elder Sister." Instead, call Elder Sister-in-law.

Da Qiao didn't respond for a long time. Standing beside Huo Chi like guards, Pi Pi and Gu Gu seem impatient.

"Wow woof!"

"Gugugu!"

Everyone: "..."

This scene was truly unprecedented!

Da Qiao withdrew her gaze. She raised the corners of her mouth, showing a slight dimple. Looking at Huo Chi, she smiled, "I am willing, Elder Brother Huo Chi!"

I am willing to be your wife, from black hair to white hair!

I am willing to stay with you all my life and be your closest person!

When Huo Chi heard this, his chest felt like it was filled with something.

He stood up, put the ring on Da Qiao's middle finger, and hugged her tightly: "I love you, Nian Nian!"

Blue sky, white clouds, and green trees. A match made in heaven.

This scene was as beautiful as a poem.

Cai Ru Nan took the lead in applauding. The people around her followed suit.

Da Qiao put her arms around Huo Chi's strong waist and leaned her head on his shoulder. Raising the corners of her mouth, she whispered in response, "I love you too, Elder Brother Huo Chi."
