Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
It's like swallowing a bitter pill – you can't express your suffering!
"Alright, boss, don't worry about this. I know what I'm doing!" Qiao Gaoyang waved his hand, finished reporting the task, and left quickly, thinking that once he caught up with the person, he could finally get revenge for being laughed at.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, Leng Yingying was already waiting there.
"You're so slow, I thought you changed your mind!" she said, after all, she did have a big appetite, and if she ate freely, she would have to spend a lot of money on Qiao Gaoyang's meals in one sitting.
"Me, change your mind?" Qiao Gaoyang laughed, took out a stack of meal tickets from his pocket, and slapped them against his palm.
Leng Yingying's eyes lit up instantly.
【so much? ! 】
Qiao Gaoyang raised an eyebrow smugly, finding Leng Yingying's ecstatic joy at the sight of the meal ticket utterly adorable.
Speaking of which, after receiving a lot of prize money from the explosives research group, Leng Yingying was quite wealthy, and she would always insist on treating everyone when they went out to eat.
But her original intention remains unchanged; she still loves meal tickets just as much.
What does this tell us?
This shows that she is a person who is loyal and devoted in love!
As long as he can win her over, he guarantees they'll grow old together!
"Order! Order!" Leng Yingying pushed Qiao Gaoyang's shoulder, urging him to hurry up and order at the window.
Since he has so many meal tickets, it shouldn't be too much for me to order a few more dishes, right?
While she was still feeling "embarrassed," Qiao Gaoyang, who knew her taste preferences well, had already started ordering.
"This one, this one, this one, this one..."
One of each, please!
Qiao Gaoyang tapped his finger several times and ordered seven meat dishes.
The cafeteria worker glanced at Qiao Gaoyang and Leng Yingying beside him and kindly offered a reminder.
"Comrades, isn't this a little too much? Why don't you buy a few portions first, and if it's not enough—"
"Whose taste are you looking down on?" Qiao Gaoyang said domineeringly, then turned to Leng Yingying and asked, "Look, do you need anything else added?"
Leng Yingying shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum.
"Enough, enough!"
[Oh my, Qiao Lao Er is so thoughtful! He ordered all my favorite dishes. He's so considerate!]
Qiao Gaoyang licked his back teeth, secretly pleased.
"Okay then, I'll take these for now." Feeling satisfied, Qiao Gaoyang immediately put on an act in front of the food server.
Food server: "..."
After the food was served, Leng Yingying's eyes never left the food, staring at it the whole time, and then nibbling on it like a little squirrel.
Seeing how much she was enjoying her food, Qiao Gaoyang's appetite also improved.
In the past, when they ate together, Leng Yingying would worry a little about her eating manners, but now that they're "close" with each other, she doesn't care at all and does whatever she wants to enjoy her food, being completely herself!
"I'm satisfied, so very satisfied!"
Before her lay a plate that had been completely emptied. Leng Yingying wiped her mouth, thoroughly satisfied with today's meal.
"How about another bowl of soup, to fill the gap?" Qiao Gaoyang joked.
Leng Yingying waved her hand, refusing, "I'm not running away anymore..."
Finally, Qiao Gaoyang insisted on taking Leng Yingying back to her dormitory, citing the need to aid her digestion.
When she got home, only Su Yueya was there.
Qiao Shouyan went on a date with Meng Yingxin, of course. Qiao Xinru was on duty today, and Su Yueya, who came back early, took on the task of taking care of the child, letting her parents go out for a stroll and enjoy some time alone.
"Second Brother!" Su Yueya called out, her eyes still fixed on Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an.
"Xiao Yuan, An An!" Qiao Gaoyang also came over to help take care of the children.
After inquiring about the whereabouts of his family members, Qiao Gaoyang then mentioned the mission he was going to carry out that day.
"Guess who received me?" Qiao Gaoyang asked.
Su Yueya: "..."
Another military unit in the capital, and since her second brother deliberately asked who received her, that left only one person among those she knew—
"Zhou Jinglan?" Su Yueya guessed.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
It's boring, really boring!
Su Yueya was amused by her second brother's expression and said helplessly, "You specifically asked me, and I don't know anyone over there, I only know his name. If I don't guess him, who should I guess?"
Besides, Qiao Gaoyang wouldn't have specifically mentioned someone if they were just an insignificant person.
If you can't even guess this, you should question Su Yueya's intelligence.
"Fine then." Qiao Gaoyang said sullenly, but what could he do when his sister was so clever? "It's him. This guy even asked me about Xinruo!"
"Really?" Su Yueya's eyes lit up. It seemed that Zhou Jinglan had always had feelings for Qiao Xinruo. She asked with concern, "How is he doing now? How is he in a good state?"
If Qiao Gaoyang didn't know why Su Yueya asked that question, he would have suspected that she had fallen for someone else.
"Even so, the scars on his face are still quite noticeable," Qiao Gaoyang said, pursing his lips.
He is not yet satisfied with his "future brother-in-law".
"As for his condition, I can't see that." Qiao Gaoyang shrugged, his dissatisfaction with Zhou Jinglan practically written all over his face.
Su Yueya chuckled, naturally thinking of her brothers' attitude towards Lu Zhengjun back then.
They are exactly the same.
However, there are still some differences.
After all, she and Lu Zhengjun were already deeply in love, while her younger sister doesn't seem to have any feelings for Zhou Jinglan yet.
But the scars on his face are still very noticeable?
All things considered, Zhou Jinglan must have been using scar removal cream for quite some time now. Could it be that the scar removal cream in the store wasn't effective enough?
That makes sense, considering that Zhou Jinglan was seriously injured back then, similar to Lu Zhengjun's injuries, and Lu Zhengjun's scars were completely healed only after a long period of careful recuperation.
Zhou Jinglan certainly didn't have the same conditions for recuperating as Lu Zhengjun, making a full recovery even more difficult.
"Or, how about I release an upgraded scar removal kit?" Su Yueya said.
"You want to help him?" Qiao Gaoyang asked, frowning. "Could it be that you're quite satisfied with this Zhou Jinglan?"
"Whether we're satisfied or not isn't up to us to decide," Su Yueya said.
However, the reason for releasing the upgraded scar removal kit was indeed to help Zhou Jinglan. After all, he liked Qiao Xinruo, and among the four siblings, only Qiao Xinruo had no intention of dating. Su Yueya just wanted to give it a try.
"Who can control Xinruo's thoughts? If she doesn't want to be in a relationship, even holding a knife to her throat won't help. But Zhou Jinglan really likes Xinruo. I'm thinking, if we can restore his looks, maybe he'll dare to take the initiative?"
"Besides, Xinruo is clearly a looks-obsessed person. If Zhou Jinglan doesn't regain his looks, he has no chance of winning. But if he does regain his looks, who knows, Xinruo might fall for him?"
Qiao Gaoyang strongly agreed with Su Yueya's statement; Qiao Xinruo was indeed a sucker for good looks.
"Alright, let's give it a try then," Qiao Gaoyang said nonchalantly.
