286 Let’s Go Car Racing
Qiao Yue walked up to Qiao Ze and asked softly, “Third brother, why aren’t you inside?”
Qiao Ze only woke up from his dream at Qiao Yue’s reminder.
It was already winter. If one stayed out for too long, they would feel the cold air and dew drenching their entire bodies, with the cold and wet feeling seeping into their bones.
“Qiao Yue, you’re here.” Qiao Ze looked at Qiao Yue and squeezed out an ugly smile.
The Qiao Ze in front of Qiao Yue now was completely different from the arrogant and domineering Qiao Ze she remembered. It was as if he had become a different person.
“I heard from second brother that you are still recuperating. Why are you out in the cold?”
“I can’t always stay in the house. I have to come out for a walk every now and then.”
Qiao Yue sighed. “Although it’s good to take a walk, it’s so cold. Third brother, you shouldn’t keep standing outside. It’s not easy to cure the cold after it enters your body.”
“What’s that? Fifth brother, do you also know medicine?” Qiao Ze tried his best to sound chirpy, but only he knew that he was depressed. There was no way he could pretend to be optimistic and sunny.
“I’ve learned a little from Lu Ying before, but I don’t know if that counts.” Qiao Yue replied.
“Physical illnesses are easy to treat, but mental illnesses are not.” Qiao Ze shook his head.
After all, it was his own business that he had run for years. He had carved out from scratch his own career in the entertainment industry.
Qiao Ze was probably the only one who understood all the hardships he had gone through.
“But if I could trade the destruction of my career with my father’s repentance, it’s worth it.” Qiao Ze smiled bitterly.
“Why are you so pessimistic, third brother? You’re not even thirty! Although you may not be able to act like before, you can still be a director. You can compose music and do lots of other things. Besides, public opinion is so easily influenced these days with the internet. In a year or so, people will forget about this thing.” Qiao Yue consoled.
She still remembered watching the movie that Qiao Ze shot.
Although it was only a short film, every scene was beautiful. Although the technique looked a little raw, she could see Qiao Ze’s effort and talent. As long as Qiao Ze was willing, he could totally be a famous director someday!
“You still have a long way to go in your life. You don’t have to make a bad choice because of a moment of unhappiness.”
Qiao Ze understood Qiao Yue’s words.
Qiao Yue didn’t want him to continue wasting his life away.
Although the Qiao family could guarantee that they would never have to worry about food and clothing, if they wasted their lives away like this, the golden years of their lives would quickly pass. Qiao Ze didn’t want to be as useless as Qiao Yi in his middle age.
“Thank you for saying this to me.”
Although everyone had been consoling him these days, Qiao Yue’s words made him see some hope for the future. Qiao Ze did not have nothing.
“I’ll find a way to pull myself together. To thank you for helping me, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight. Order whatever you want. I’ll pay!”
Qiao Yue laughed. Actually, there was something she wanted to do more than eat.
Qiao Jing had been keeping a close eye on her lately, but she really wanted to go out and have fun, especially at the racetrack east of the city, which she had not visited for a long time.
Two days ago, Yayi imported an off-road vehicle. It was a limited-edition vehicle that Qiao Yue had been waiting for. She couldn’t wait to drive it as fast as lightning.
Seeing the excitement in Qiao Yue’s eyes, Qiao Ze found it difficult to refuse her suggestion.
Just as well. Anyway, Qiao Yue was almost fully recovered, so there’s no harm in a little competition.
“I’ll call the racetrack. We’ll drive our own cars to the racetrack east of the city and have a good race!”
Seeing that Qiao Ze had already agreed to her request, Qiao Yue was afraid that he would regret it or be caught by Qiao Jing, so she quickly went back to her room and changed into a racing suit that she had not worn for a long time.
Standing in front of the mirror, Qiao Yue looked herself up and down. Because she was recuperating, she had lost some weight and looked thinner than before. The racing suit that she had just put on looked a little loose on her.
Qiao Yue sighed. When she was fully recovered, she would resume her fitness regime. Without muscles, she was as thin as a rake and would probably be the first person killed if she encountered any dangerous situation.
