Chapter 236: First Public Kiss

Qiao Qiao was almost moved to tears.
Mr. Qiao pushed the documents on the coffee table towards Qiao Qiao and said earnestly, “Your grandfather’s health is getting worse and worse. Seeing you get married is his greatest wish, but his wish has never been fulfilled. You don’t want your grandfather to leave with regrets, right?”
At the mention of Grandpa, all the expressions on Qiao Qiao’s pretty face disappeared. “Yes.”
Mr. Qiao nodded. “Your mother and I chose these marriage partners for you.
They have good education and family backgrounds. You have to get along with them to know what they are like. Take a look first and see if you like anyone. If you think anyone is good enough, I’ll arrange a meeting for you tomorrow.”
Qiao Qiao:
So this condition was a blind date…
At the end of the day, she still had to get married. However, on second thought, as long as the marriage partner wasn’t Qiao Jingmo, it didn’t matter who it was. In any case, it was all for Grandpa.
Qiao Qiao took the document solemnly. “Then I’ll take a look first.’
Qiao Jingmo, who was sitting in the armchair opposite her, watched this scene quietly. In fact, all she wanted was to be happy.
Before Qiao Qiao looked at the blind date information, she thought that there was no need to pick someone too good-looking. Just someone with average looks would do. His family background didn’t have to be too prominent. Just someone average would do. Anyway, these things weren’t that important.
In summary, as long as it was passable.
Unexpectedly, after looking at it, Qiao Qiao couldn’t take it anymore!
There were a total of 11 documents, which meant that there were 11 blind dates. In the end, not to mention ordinary-looking, there was not even a single person who was passable!
Not a single one!
Could they have deliberately found an ugly man? Moreover, after looking at these photos, she actually felt much better when she looked at Qiao Jingmo again.
Qiao Qiao opened the documents and asked, “Is that all? Is there no one else?”
Mr. Qiao shook his head. “No.”
Qiao Qiao asked again, “Is there really no one else?”
The one who answered was Jiang Lin. “Guigui, these are the best that Dad and Mom have chosen for you.”
Qiao Qiao looked like she had nothing to live for. “The best, at least their looks should be passable. Look at these looks yourself. Are you serious?”
Some had buck teeth, some had fat heads and ears, some had standard square faces, and some had eyes so small that they didn’t seem to open.
These looks really gathered all kinds of looks. There were only two words to describe it: Absolutely ruthless!
Mr. Qiao said earnestly, “You can’t just look at their appearance. You have to get along with him to know if he’s good or not. His looks are just skin and not food.
Qiao Qiao took a deep breath.
At this moment, Jiang Lin added, “That’s right. The other half’s looks aren’t that important. Look at their educational backgrounds and family backgrounds. All of them are very outstanding. If you’re afraid that you won’t be able to eat them, close your eyes or turn off the lights.”
Qiao Qiao took another deep breath. Unwilling to give up, she flipped through the eleven pieces of information again. Finally, she closed her eyes hard. “Can I choose one myself? I don’t want a family background. At least he has to be passable.”
Mr. Qiao said clearly, “Of course not.”
Qiao Qiao was puzzled. “Why not?”
Mr. Qiao said even more earnestly, “Your grandfather hopes that you can have a good entrustment. It’s also to make him feel at ease. These people that Dad and Mom prepared have passed your grandfather’s inspection. Your grandfather thinks it’s fine. If you go out and bring back an unknown kid, your grandfather will be furious.”
Qiao Qiao wanted to cry but had no tears. She asked Mrs. Qiao for help, “But with these looks, I can’t make do even if I turn off the lights. Mom, help me think of a way.”
Mrs. Qiao shook her head. “There’s no other way. Time is tight now. All the top-notch men in Xingzhou are here. Pick one yourself.”
Mr. Qiao could tell that his daughter was in a dilemma. He suggested, “Guigui, actually, you don’t have to compromise. Go back to the capital and continue your old life. Anyway, you’ve come back to see Grandpa one last time. Grandpa won’t be too regretful.”
Qiao Qiao thought that it would be great if she was really heartless. If she was heartless, she would have come back and taken a look before leaving. Why would she worry about getting married?
Worried, Qiao Qiao’s gaze uncontrollably landed on Qiao Jingmo, who had been silent the entire time.
At this moment, Qiao Jingmo was looking at her. His eyes were dark and deep, like an abyss. Just a few seconds of eye contact was enough to suck her in. Qiao Qiao quickly looked away.
Looking at the eleven pieces of information again, Qiao Qiao wanted to convince herself that she should draw a lot. Whoever she caught would be hers. In the end, she reached out her hand, but she still couldn’t get over it. She pulled her hand back.
The next second, she suddenly stood up.
This commotion was very loud. Mr. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao looked up at her in unison.
Qiao Qiao seemed to have made a decision. She made up her mind and strode towards Qiao Jingmo, who was sitting opposite her. She stood beside Qiao Jingmo and pointed at him. She said to Mr. and Mrs. Qiao, “I, I, I…”
Mrs. Qiao asked, “What’s wrong?”
Qiao Qiao closed her eyes hard. “I’ve thought about it carefully. Don’t let the goodies go to outsiders. If I have to get married, it’ll be him. In that case… Grandpa should be more at ease.”
Compared to those ugly looks, Qiao Qiao was more willing to look at Qiao Jingmo’s handsome face!
For the former, when she turns off the lights, she will still think of those big fat ears.
For the latter, when she turned off the lights, at least she could still go through with it.
Therefore, after thinking about it, she decided to choose Qiao Jingmo. It was better to live in fear than pain.
At this moment, Mr. Qiao objected. “That won’t do. Since you didn’t want to choose Jingmo in the first place, don’t make things difficult for yourself now.”
Qiao Qiao pulled a long face. “It’s not difficult.’
Mrs. Qiao said, “If this isn’t difficult for you, why are you smiling like you’re crying?”
Qiao Qiao smiled bitterly. “I’m just too happy.”
Qiao Jingmo, who was sitting in the armchair, was expressionless. He reminded Qiao Qiao in a low voice, “You still have a chance. You’d better think it through.’
Qiao Qiao put on a serious expression. “I’ve already thought it through. I have to have you.”
Mr. and Mrs. Qiao looked at each other and said in unison, “Why can’t we tell that you have to have Jingmo?”
Qiao Qiao was afraid that her parents would force her to choose one of the eleven people to get married. If she chose those people, she might as well please Qiao Jingmo. Hence, she made up her mind and threw caution to the wind. She sat down on Qiao Jingmo’s lap.
This action was too sudden and too bold.
Not to mention Mr. and Mrs. Qiao, even Qiao Jingmo didn’t expect this. However, to everyone’s surprise, Qiao Qiao boldly stretched out her hands to hold Qiao Jingmo’s neck. She bent down and kissed him on the lips.
It was like a dragonfly touching the water.
Qiao Jingmo was stunned for the first time.
Qiao Qiao turned around and asked, “Did you guys take a closer look? If you didn’t, I, I, I… I’ll kiss him again!!”
