Chapter 150 Lu Qingqing x Meng Yaozhu: Sister Lu's boyfriend came to pick her up.
Several close colleagues were teasing Lu Qingqing when she suddenly let out a soft "whoosh".
The phone screen on the table was flashing.
Lu gently picked up the phone and held it to her ear: "Excuse me, I need to take this call."
"Okay, if you're here, wait for me a moment, I'll get dressed and come downstairs..."
"Okay...don't worry, I didn't drink..."
After hanging up the phone, she noticed her colleagues staring at her silently, their expressions quite subtle.
Why do you look at me like that?
Sister Yue narrowed her eyes: "Tell me honestly, did your boyfriend call you?"
The deer was slightly startled; her eyes were like a ruler.
He laughed it off and brushed it off.
They were quickly diverted to other topics.
Meng Yaozhu took in everything, and the tension in his heart, which had just eased, was tightened again by a drawstring.
They just teased her about not having a boyfriend, and she didn't deny it.
They now jokingly tell her she has a boyfriend, and she still hasn't denied it.
With this feeling of unease, he was no longer easily swayed by others, and he ignored his colleagues when they spoke to him.
His gaze seemed fixed on her.
Locked in by that gaze that seemed so real, Lu Qingqing couldn't help but want to ignore it.
She wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"It's getting late, I have to go now."
"Huh? It's only been a short time, and you're already leaving?"
"I have something to do, you guys have more fun. I'll invite you all again next time."
Lu gently put on her coat, picked up her bag, and said goodbye to everyone.
Yuejie said, "How are you getting there? Or should I give you a ride?"
"No need, someone's coming to pick me up."
After her figure disappeared through the door, someone suddenly joked, "Something's not right, Sister Lu is acting strangely."
"Something's not right?"
The colleague smiled mysteriously: "Do you guys dare to make a bet with me?"
Yue slapped him on the back of the head: "Stop being so mysterious and just explain yourself."
"Hey, can't you guys tell? Sister Lu definitely has a boyfriend. Let's bet that the guy who came to pick her up isn't her boyfriend."
"Then what are we waiting for? They'll be gone soon."
Three or five people crowded together and hurried downstairs.
I'm afraid I'll miss out on the gossip if I'm late.
Half of the people at the table had left. Secretary Kim squinted and let out a burp: "These people are really boring."
The next second, he heard the sound of a chair being moved beside him, and saw Meng Yaozhu had already gotten up and was walking towards the door.
Secretary Kim was dumbfounded.
...
Lu Qingqing left the hotel, and Xu Xiao was already waiting at the door.
She walked over and said, "Have you been waiting long?"
Xu Xiao said gently, "I just arrived, I haven't been waiting long."
He opened the passenger door and took out a bouquet of roses: "These are for you."
It's the cappuccino that Lu Qingqing likes.
Why are you sending me flowers again?
From the day she agreed to date him, he would give her flowers every time they met.
Xu Xiao said, "You are someone I cherish, and I will put my heart into every time I see you."
Lu teased, "You don't look like someone who's never had a girlfriend."
Xu Xiao panicked: "I really didn't pay any..."
Lu Qingqing loved seeing him act all honest and anxious, which made her chuckle: "Alright, alright, I know."
She took a gentle sniff, and the fragrance of the flowers filled her nostrils: "Thank you, I like it very much."
Xu Xiao then smiled.
He then took a coat out of the car: "It's chilly at night, and you're easily sick because you're frail."
An arm was put around her shoulder to help her put on her coat.
"Look, look!!! What did I tell you! You all saw it!" The colleague exclaimed excitedly, "I told you Sister Lu has a boyfriend."
Someone popped their head out from behind: "Holy crap, Sister Lu seems so quiet, but she's actually secretly got a boyfriend!"
"That man is very handsome, and he and Sister Lu are quite a good match!"
"President Meng?"
Someone turned around and was surprised to see a man suddenly appear beside him.
What's even more chilling is that Meng Yaozhu exudes a chilling aura, his icy gaze fixed intently on the laughing and chatting couple across the street.
His fist was clenched tightly, and you could faintly hear the crisp cracking sound of his knuckles.
...
Lu Qingqing had no idea that she and Xu Xiao had been caught red-handed by their gossipy colleagues. She and Xu Xiao went to the hospital first.
Since they started dating, Ms. Jiang has been noticeably happier than before. When she sees them coming together, her eyes crinkle with laughter.
"What are you doing here so late? Xiao Xu has to go to work tomorrow."
"Auntie, it's alright. I just came to see you so that Qingqing and I could feel at ease."
"Good, good, you're all so thoughtful." Ms. Jiang couldn't stop smiling.
Lu Qingqing is content that Ms. Jiang is so happy.
This proves that everything was worthwhile.
Xu Xiao made an excuse to go out to fetch water, leaving the mother and daughter alone.
Whether it's his actions or his words, Xu Xiao is a person who is impeccable.
Ms. Jiang was even more satisfied: "How about it? Mom has good taste, right?"
Lu gently peeled an apple with a knife: "Yes, yes, you have such keen eyesight, even Sun Wukong doesn't have your eyesight. You actually found such a good man."
"Stop being so glib and pay more attention to Xiao Xu. She's a very honest girl, and her heart is only for you."
Lu gently scooped off a small piece of apple and put it in her mouth: "Okay, okay."
After talking with Ms. Jiang for a while, Xu Xiao gently escorted Lu home.
She waved goodbye to him, watched him leave, and then turned and went into the building.
Just as she stepped inside, a wrist suddenly appeared and grabbed hers. Her shoulder was pushed, and she was pinned against the building entrance.
Before she could speak, she was met with a pair of icy eyes.
"Is this why you resigned?"
She stared at him blankly, still feeling surprised and uncertain about Meng Yaozhu's sudden appearance.
The pain in her wrist brought her back to her senses, and she pushed him with her remaining hand: "What are you doing here?"
Of course, she couldn't push him away.
Meng Yaozhu's usually calm and composed eyes were now filled with uncharacteristic anger: "Answer me!"
Lu paused for a moment, recalling the question he had asked when she was still dazed.
Coupled with his furious expression, he looked like a man enraged by being cheated on by his girlfriend.
A subconscious guess, both denied and confirmed, flashed through her mind. Considering his recent abnormal behavior, she looked at him with suspicion and uncertainty: "On what grounds are you questioning me now?"
The clear, sharp voice was like a slap that pierced through autumn, striking his face and waking him up.
He was momentarily bewildered, and the strength in his hands loosened slightly.
Lu Qingqing took the opportunity to pull her wrist away, rubbed the sore spot where he had gripped her, and said in a flat tone: "If it's the boss, I've already resigned and have no obligation to inform you."
"If we're talking about friends, I think we don't even qualify as friends."
"Mr. Meng, you've crossed the line."
