Chapter 9: Double Zhao Shura Field-1

Qu Xiaoxiao turned around slowly, putting on a standard, forced business smile, and was too lazy to say another word.

Wei Wei didn't mind at all. His eyes seemed to glance at the direction of Zhao Qiping in the venue, and his smile was mixed with a bit of understanding and uncomfortable speculation.

"Are you here to see Doctor Zhao?"

Without waiting for Qu Xiaoxiao to answer, he sighed in the tone of a person who had experienced it,

"Come to think of it, I'm quite envious of you two. Young people, you have passionate feelings, and every time you make a big fuss, breaking up and getting back together, it's full of drama. But in the end, your bond is deep, and no matter how much you fight, you can't be separated in the end."

He nodded slightly, acting like a life mentor.

"I really admire Dr. Zhao. He's excellent and has strong professional skills. Although he can be a bit arrogant at times, he and your lively and outgoing personality complement each other perfectly. We're a perfect match."

Qu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes in her heart, and the fake smile on her face almost disappeared.

She raised her hand decisively, made a "stop" gesture, and smiled sweetly.

"Brother Wei, if I remember correctly, when you and Andy broke up, Dr. Zhao was busy as well, right? He set up card games for you, tried every possible way to get Andy out, hoping you two would get back together."

She looked Wei Wei up and down, then nodded as if she suddenly understood.

"From this revolutionary friendship of 'mutual support and overcoming emotional hardships', I think you and Zhao Qiping are a perfect match!"

The smile on Wei Wei's face froze instantly, and he changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, how is Andy doing recently? Is her illness getting better? And Bao Yifan..."

"Brother Wei,"

Qu Xiaoxiao interrupted her immediately, "I guess you're the only one who thinks Andy is sick. Our Andy is fine. He has so much fun playing with Mr. Bao all day. Don't worry about him."

Wei Wei's little plan was fine for fooling a silly girl like Qiu Yingying, but he happened to meet the enchantress Qu Xiaoxiao.

He was completely dejected by the criticism, and at this moment, the meeting was intermission.

Zhao Qiping saw Qu Xiaoxiao running around the room early in the morning. Seeing that she had not come to find him, he came over under the pretext of looking for Wei Wei.

"Mr. Chang from Tongke is here today too. I'll introduce you to him later."

Zhao Qiping said to Wei Wei, "Academician Zhang brought his team here today. Their brain-computer interface project is quite good. You can check it out later."

After saying that, he set his eyes on Qu Xiaoxiao again, and said with a smile,

"Why are you here? Don't you hate this kind of boring occasions the most?"

Qu Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes, shook her head and said in a coquettish voice,

"Yes, Doctor Zhao. I used to feel bored because I didn't have anyone interested in me. Now that I have someone interested in me, I naturally don't feel bored anymore."

"Anyone interested?"

Zhao Qiping raised his eyebrows and tried to suppress the corners of his mouth, as if waiting for her to continue.

At this moment, Zhao Ziqian "happened" to pass by the three people.

Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up and she rushed forward.

"Honey, you were so handsome on stage just now. You charmed me so much."

Zhao Ziqian looked at Qu Xiaoxiao who was almost hanging on him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, then he returned to his brief surprise.

Qu Xiaoxiao immediately squeezed out a threat through her teeth in a voice that only the two of them could hear, but she had a sweet smile on her face.

"Help me in this emergency, if you don't want your brother Meng Yanchen to sleep on the sofa."

Zhao Ziqian raised his eyebrows. What a bad excuse! He himself felt that the play was a bit fake.

Then, he sighed helplessly, raised his hand lovingly and naturally, and gently patted the back of Qu Xiaoxiao's hand that was on his arm.

He looked up at Zhao Qiping and Wei Wei opposite him.

"Sorry, my girlfriend is a little naughty."

Zhao Qiping looked at the abrupt yet "harmonious" scene in front of him, and his brows unconsciously furrowed.

Reason told him that Qu Xiaoxiao was probably just acting. He was too familiar with her little tricks. Besides, how could Zhao Ziqian be interested in her...

But...the other party is Zhao Ziqian.

In fact, they are quite similar in nature. They are both noble, have the same bad taste, and seem to be indifferent, but in fact, everyone knows that they have a strong desire to win.

Zhao Ziqian once even used score manipulation to provoke him. When it comes to childishness and bad taste, Zhao Qiping has to admit defeat.

If he took the initiative to approach Qu Xiaoxiao...it would really satisfy Qu Xiaoxiao and her family's admiration for intellectuals.

Qu Xiaoxiao opened her eyes wide, shook her head slowly, and looked at Zhao Qiping's usually calm and composed face with amusement. At this moment, it was unpredictable and extremely exciting. She felt so happy in her heart.

If she wasn't afraid of being exposed, she would definitely take out her cell phone to record it and watch it over and over again when she got home.

The goal has been achieved, it is not safe to stay any longer.

There are risks in casinos, and Qu Xiaoxiao understands the principle of knowing when to quit.

"Honey, don't we have to go meet Professor Chen over there? Let's go!"

She grabbed Zhao Ziqian's arm and tried to slip away.

"etc."

Zhao Qiping suddenly spoke, his eyes moving between Qu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Ziqian, finally landing on Zhao Ziqian's face, his tone sounding calm.

"After the meeting, did Teacher Li, Professor Wang, and a few other old classmates get together for dinner? They talk about you a lot."

He paused, turned his gaze towards Qu Xiaoxiao, and said something that he knew would hurt her.

"You should come too. Before... didn't you always complain that I didn't let you into my circle and meet my friends?"

The fake smile on Qu Xiaoxiao's face suddenly faltered, and she subconsciously tightened her arm around Zhao Ziqian.

She raised her head suddenly, like an enraged peacock, and gave Zhao Qiping an extremely brilliant but cold smile.

"OK!"

Then he turned to look at Zhao Ziqian, "Honey! Haven't you always said that you wanted to introduce your friends to me? Isn't this a perfect opportunity?!"

As she spoke, she secretly exerted force and pinched the inside of Zhao Ziqian's arm hard.

The touch from her fingertips was incredibly hard, like pinching a piece of taut rubber, not moving at all. Qu Xiaoxiao cursed inwardly:

[Oh my god, the muscles are so tight?!]

Zhao Ziqian looked normal, lowered his eyes to look at Qu Xiaoxiao, and said softly,

“It’s indeed an opportunity!”

"Okay, it's a deal, see you later!"

After Zhao Qiping finished speaking, he didn't want to linger on the two of them any longer, so he turned and left, and Wei Wei followed him.

Watching Zhao Qiping's figure going away, Zhao Ziqian finally looked like he was "collecting a debt" and looked at Qu Xiaoxiao, then raised his chin towards the door.

"Chat?"
