Chapter 127 Using the Emperor to Control the Princes

"Your mother sent me a message."

After replying to Jiang Meilin's message, Xu Ye took the initiative to tell Chen Qingqing about it.

Chen Qingqing subconsciously stopped and asked, "What did you say?"

Xu Ye said honestly, "Your mother said that your father is now at Hongqiao Airport and will take a car to find you soon. She asked me if you were in school today."

Chen Qingqing, who was originally happy, heard this and the smile on her face disappeared all of a sudden. She asked, "What did you say?"

"I said we are in the hotel now. Your mother said that your father will call you when he arrives near the school."

Zhang Ruowei, Jiang Yu, Shen Xinyi and others also knew about the news of Chen Qingqing's parents' divorce. Seeing that Chen Qingqing was not in a good mood, Zhang Ruowei tentatively asked, "Xu Ye, is Qingqing's father a difficult person to talk to?"

"Well, I haven't dealt with him many times."

"Then should we..."

Zhang Ruowei wanted to say whether we should avoid it, but Chen Qingqing took the initiative at this time: "Ruowei, Jiang Yu, Xinyi, you three go back first."

"Okay~"

The three of them didn't think much and left the hotel quickly.

It only takes half an hour to get here from Hongqiao Airport by subway, and it might be faster if you take a car. Seeing that Chen Qingqing had been silent, Xu Ye asked in a low voice: "We should wait for your dad here?"

"Yes."

Xu Ye said cautiously: "If your dad sees the two of us alone in the hotel room, he will kill me, right?"

Chen Qingqing turned to look at Xu Ye, her eyes full of warning: "Are you scared?"

The reason why Chen Qingqing asked her three roommates to go back to school first was that she wanted her father to see her and Xu Ye alone in the hotel room.

She wanted her father to know: If you don't have time to accompany me, naturally someone will have time to accompany me.

Xu Ye was immediately confident: "Of course I'm not afraid. Anyway, I'll do whatever you ask me to do later."

"Really?"

"Really."

Xu Ye asked with a grin: "Let me ask you a question. If, I mean if, your dad and I fell into the water at the same time, you can and can only save one, will you save me or your dad?"

"Girls always ask boys this kind of question, how can a boy ask a girl?" Chen Qingqing was speechless.

"Tell me."

"I don't know!" Chen Qingqing quickly threw the difficult question to Xu Ye: "Then tell me, if your mom and I fell into the water at the same time, what would you do?"

Xu Ye blurted out: "Don't you know how to swim?"

"You!"

"Oh, just a joke to liven up the atmosphere. I see you're worried."

Chen Qingqing turned aside and said hypocritically: "I don't."

"How about... practicing the guitar for a while?"

Chen Qingqing accepted the suggestion. She picked up the guitar and practiced the song "Sheng Sheng Man" that Xu Ye wrote today.

"The A section is a little fast, and you played a chord wrong in the middle."

"It's not like that, it's still wrong."

Xu Ye stood up and walked behind Chen Qingqing, holding her small hands with both hands, and started to teach her step by step.

Xu Ye's palms were big, and he could completely wrap Chen Qingqing's hands inside. Moreover, Chen Qingqing's hands were cold, but Xu Ye's hands were very warm. When the two people held hands together, their body temperatures also blended with each other.

Her hands were slippery, and Xu Ye didn't dare to touch them openly. He could only pinch her palms and rub her fingers quietly under the pretext of teaching her to play the guitar...

"This chord should be played like this."

"The speed of this section needs to be slowed down."

Chen Qingqing could even feel the hot breath Xu Ye exhaled when he spoke in her ear. Her ears quickly turned red, and her body was tense. She sat on the sofa and dared not move.

She couldn't remember what Xu Ye said at all, until... the phone on the table rang at an inopportune time, and Chen Qingqing blushed and said, "I... I'll take a call first."

"Okay~"

The call was from Chen Hansong.

He had already arrived at the gate of the Magic City Conservatory of Music. Chen Hansong thought his daughter would come to the school gate to pick him up, but he didn't expect Chen Qingqing to just tell him the name of the hotel and the room number, and then hang up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Qingqing glanced at the door that Zhang Ruowei had left open, then hugged the guitar again, blushed, lowered his head and said, "I... let's continue."

Xu Ye was very surprised.

He didn't expect Chen Qingqing to take the initiative to ask to continue.

But he soon realized that Chen Qingqing might have deliberately created this scene to piss off Chen Hansong.

This old Deng came at the right time.

Xu Ye quickly leaned over again, hugged Chen Qingqing from behind, and the two of them played the guitar distractedly.

Only ten minutes later.

A heavy sound of footsteps was heard outside the door.

"Click!"

The hotel room door was opened directly from the outside, and Chen Hansong appeared at the door. Xu Ye and Chen Qingqing heard the sound and looked up at the same time, their heads almost touching each other.

Chen Hansong, who saw this scene, felt dizzy and almost fainted.

I'm dreaming.

I must be dreaming.

Chen Hansong stretched out his hand to hold the door sill and asked with difficulty: "You...you...what are you doing!"

Xu Ye pretended to be stupid and said: "Uncle Chen, why are you here?"

Chen Hansong didn't want to pay attention to Xu Ye at all. He looked at Chen Qingqing and asked: "Qingqing, where are your roommates?"

Chen Qingqing didn't answer, but her eyes seemed to be saying: roommate? What roommate?

Seeing that Chen Hansong was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly, Xu Ye quickly let go of his hand and stood up.

Chen Hansong stepped in and slammed the door shut.

The room was filled with murderous aura.

Xu Ye was calm. In ancient times, Cao Cao held the emperor hostage to control the princes. Now he also felt like holding Qingqing hostage to control his father-in-law.

Especially since Xu Ye had a conflict with Chen Hansong before, this feeling was quite refreshing.

Chen Hansong was silent for a long time, and finally looked at Xu Ye and said coldly: "You go out first, I'll talk to my daughter for a while."

Xu Ye didn't say anything.

After all, they are father and daughter. If Chen Qingqing really hated Chen Hansong, there was no need to anger him like this. The more Chen Qingqing did this, the more it showed that in her heart, both Chen Hansong and Jiang Meilin were irreplaceable.

She was just protesting their divorce and their dedication to their careers and never taking time to accompany her in this way.

Many people have done similar things, and Xu Ye is no exception. When he was in junior high school, Zhang Hong often said in front of Xu Ye that someone's child scored 100 points in math again this time, and someone's child got the first place in the midterm exam again. Xu Ye's grades were originally a little above average, but he was upset once, so he deliberately handed in a blank paper during the exam, and naturally got the last place in the final exam.

However, Zhang Hong did not punish Xu Ye like most parents, but realized her mistake, and never said anything similar to Xu Ye in front of her afterwards.

Xu Ye was about to step out, and Chen Qingqing, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly said, "Why are you going out?"

Xu Ye looked at Chen Qingqing, then at Chen Hansong, and finally smiled and said to the latter, "Uncle Chen, why don't I sit next to you and play with my phone for a while?"

Chen Hansong reluctantly acquiesced.

Chen Hansong also realized that Xu Ye and his daughter had reached this point, and he could no longer intervene.

He sat down next to Chen Qingqing, and just as he was about to speak, Chen Qingqing moved her buttocks away from him.

The words that were just on the tip of his tongue were held back.

There was silence for a long while.

Chen Hansong looked at Xu Ye again and asked, "What is your relationship now?"

Xu Ye was about to reply, but Chen Qingqing on the side took the lead and said somewhat arrogantly, "He is my boyfriend. I just agreed to him last week."

Xu Ye shrugged and smiled at Chen Hansong. In Chen Hansong's opinion, his expression and eyes seemed to say: Lao Deng, I'm sorry, I have already won your daughter.
