Chapter 86 Is it possible tonight?
Because of Cen Xihuai's phone call, Xu Qingwu was a little absent-minded all morning.
When a client came to the law firm for consultation, the client's lawyer came all the way to greet him warmly: "Mrs. Chen!"
Xu Qingwu looked up subconsciously.
Later I realized that he was not calling her.
It’s Mrs. Chen, not Mrs. Cen.
She didn't know when she started to get used to this name?
As dinner time approached, Yang Yu came over and asked her, "Keke hasn't come yet?"
Xu Qingwu shook her head: "I don't know."
Chen Ke has come for two noons, and each time she brings a lot of dishes, which has conquered Yang Yu's stomach a long time ago. Xu Qingwu also has to admit that her chef's cooking skills are indeed amazing.
I don’t know what Chen Ke wants to do. Maybe he is just bored and wants to find someone to have dinner with, but he got bored after playing for two days.
Xu Qingwu and Yang Yu went to the cafeteria to eat. Halfway through the meal, Chen Ke came. His delicate and fair face was a little red from running.
"Xu Qingwu, how could you be so disloyal? You started eating before I even arrived!"
"Who knows if you'll come?"
"Then I will definitely come. There was a traffic accident at the intersection today, so I was late."
Yang Yu quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay, Coco, let's eat quickly."
After lunch, Xu Qingwu punched in to go out for field work and meet with the head of the partner’s headquarters.
Xu Qingwu made an appointment at the coffee shop downstairs of Party A's company. She chose a seat by the window and sat down to wait.
The person who came was a pregnant woman who looked to be four or five months pregnant. She was wearing flat shoes and had short hair, but she still looked decisive and efficient.
"Xu Lu?"
"Hello, Mr. Yan."
Xu Qingwu stood up to greet them. After they both sat down, she asked Yan Yu what she wanted to drink. Yan Yu asked for a glass of boiled water.
"Lawyer Xu, let's get straight to the point. We've reviewed your company's terms, but there's still some dispute at headquarters regarding the cost. Do you think we can still negotiate?"
"I'm afraid this can't be adjusted. Our law firm's win rate and approval rate are both top-notch in the industry, and the price we offer your company is a preferential price only available to long-term clients."
"Then we need to reconsider this."
"No problem. Could you please tell me your intended price?"
"Down another three percentage points."
"Okay, I'll also apply to my supervisor. Here are the materials I prepared. You can review them when you have time."
Xu Qingwu handed her a brown paper bag. Yan Yu took it out and took a quick look at it. Then the cell phone on the table rang.
She glanced at the screen and put the information back into the paper bag, indicating that she would take a look. "Lawyer Xu, why do you look familiar to me?"
"I also think that maybe we are more compatible?"
Xu Qingwu smiled politely, Yan Yu nodded at her, picked up the briefcase and stood up to leave.
The phone rang again, and after a few rings, it hung up. A bunch of MMS messages came in, and Yan Yu frowned and clicked them.
They are all screenshots of flirting back and forth.
After Yan Yu left, Xu Qingwu went to the cashier to pay, but as soon as she walked out, someone grabbed her wrist and dragged her under a tree.
It’s He Xu.
He Xu's face was grim: "Xu Qingwu, what did you just say to Yan Yu?"
Yan Yu?
How did He Xu...
Xu Qingwu suddenly remembered that when she was accompanying Cen Yue for a prenatal checkup, she met He Xu who was also accompanying his boss's girlfriend for a prenatal checkup.
Could it be that He Xu’s girlfriend is Yan Yu?
"You're taking revenge on me? Did you tell Yan Yu about what happened that night? What did you film?"
He had just seen Xu Qingwu handing a document to Yan Yu. It must be the photo from that night.
Xu Qingwu remembered that she lied to He Xu and said she had taken photos before leaving.
"So what?" Xu Qingwu sneered, "He Xu, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door."
He Xu's phone rang with Yan Yu's call. Yan Yu wanted to talk to him about something, so he had to leave first.
Xu Qingwu went back into the coffee shop and went to the bathroom to wash his hands several times before coming out.
What bad luck.
…
After get off work on Friday, Xu Qingwu found her car as usual. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a man in the back seat whom she hadn't seen for almost a week.
There was a faint smile on his lips, and when their eyes met, Xu Qingwu felt a little embarrassed.
"You're back."
"Long time no see, wife."
"Only a few days..."
As soon as Xu Qingwu closed the door, he turned her face over and kissed her.
He had been patient for long enough and didn't even go back to adjust to the time difference before thinking about coming to see her.
The glasses were thrown aside, leaving only the silhouettes of two people. The man leaned over, while the woman arched her back and raised her chin to bear it. This reunion kiss was filled with a rare impatience and violence.
Kissing will prompt the body to produce a large amount of dopamine and oxytocin, which can easily give people an illusion of heartbeat. Xu Qingwu knew this, but still blushed and her heart beat fast because of this kiss.
When the lips parted, there was still a hint of glitter.
Cen Xihuai rubbed his thumb back and forth on her red lips, which were shining with moisture, until Xu Qingwu caught it.
"Don't do that..."
"go home."
Cen Xihuai put on his glasses again, asked Yao Wei to fold up the windshield, and drove home.
Xu Qingwu opened the window a little to let the cool breeze in.
I felt a little awkward and unfamiliar when I first opened the car door and saw him, but why did that feeling disappear after a kiss?
Xu Qingwu feels that hormones have a really strong impact on the body.
As soon as the door was opened, the puppy who had been waiting for a day started to roll around and stretch on the ground. When he saw Cen Xihuai behind Xu Qingwu, he suddenly stopped stretching.
Immediately curl up into a ball, then turn over and run away.
After Cen Xihuai sat down to eat, she cautiously came over and sniffed him. After confirming that it was him, she stretched her claws on his legs.
The leg of the custom-made suit trousers was caught and a thread was left.
Cen Xihuai wasn't angry, but rather a little surprised: "I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you have the habit of arresting people?"
"No, it's just being cute, but its nails are so long they can easily scratch your clothes."
"Why don't you cut it?"
"It's not cooperating."
So, the first thing the two did after dinner was to cut the puppy's nails.
Xu Qingwu held the puppy, kissed it, patted it and coaxed it for a long time, but the puppy twisted its body left and right and insisted on running away, refusing to cooperate.
Cen Xihuai gently pinched the skin on the back of its neck and held it in his arms. He took the nail clippers handed to him by Xu Qingwu, held the cat's paw in one hand, and cut its nails quickly and accurately with the other hand.
Before starting, he had already read tutorials and precautions on how to trim a cat's nails online.
The cat, which usually acted like a loach in Xu Qingwu's arms, was extremely obedient in front of Cen Xihuai, and only dared to whimper at her.
Xu Qingwu shrugged and gave it a helpless expression.
After cutting the nails, Xu Qingwu fed the puppy freeze-dried food and cat food, and it took a long time to coax the puppy into submission. However, the relationship between father and daughter could not be repaired in a short time because Cen Xihuai had no intention of coaxing him at all.
Before going upstairs to the study, Cen Xihuai asked her, "There are no events this week where you need to wear formal wear, right?"
"No."
"Is it okay tonight?"
He was quite considerate and even knew to ask if she wanted to wear a formal dress. Xu Qingwu blushed and replied, "Sure."
"What time does it start?"
“…”
