Chapter 176 Zhou Xiao visits the Lin family to express his gratitude, and a private detective calls



the next day--

Before Shao Qian opened the door, he was still thinking about what he would say if he saw Zhou Xiao.

To be honest, Zhou Xiao's rejection last night was still ringing in his ears, and he felt a little embarrassed to meet her again.

It’s not that he gave up. He was a man and he wouldn’t hold a grudge after being rejected once. Besides, Zhou Xiao’s rejection was very reasonable.

"Don't get me wrong, it's not because I'm resentful of you for running away last time, but I've told you before that I want to know how we got along after the dopamine rush wears off.

After thinking about it for these days, I realized that you and I are indeed not suitable for each other. There is a big gap between us in terms of personality and family background.

So after thinking about this, I feel that we are really not suitable for each other, at least for now.

Your privileged family background has given you an arrogant personality, to the point where you don't even notice when you're unintentionally hurting or looking down on others. Don't rush to deny it. Think about how we've interacted so far, and you'll realize you've always looked down on me with condescension, even condescension, which makes me very uncomfortable.

Even at the Golden Horse Awards, you just pulled my hand without telling me or getting my consent. I'm sorry, I can't accept this kind of disrespectful behavior.

I don't deny that I have a good impression of you. It may be because you are my first man, and you have helped me many times or something else. I don't know. In short, that cannot erase the fact that what you did to me made me feel a little disgusted.

So, I’m sorry, for now I can’t bring myself to accept you.”

"But you clearly liked me before, and you even asked me what I thought of you and whether I liked you..."

"Just think of it as me being high on dopamine. It's not uncommon. A momentary liking can be overwhelming. I don't want that kind of liking, but a long-lasting liking. Shao Qian, let's calm down and think about this. At least for now, we're only suitable to be friends."

Since they said so, Shao Qian had no choice but to accept it.

But after thinking about it all night last night, he realized that at least his liking for her was not just a momentary dopamine rush, but he really wanted to be with her for the rest of his life, so he decided that if she didn't come over, he would go over.

It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t like him for now, he can make her like him again. If she thinks her personality is bad, he can change it.

It doesn't matter.

But even though he had made such a plan, Shao Qian felt a little embarrassed for approaching again immediately after being rejected.

After hesitating for a while, he finally showed up at the dining place.

Today, Xiao Baozi is going to school. Shao Qian thought that Zhou Xiao would get up with Xiao Baozi to eat and prepare to send Xiao Baozi to school, so he deliberately went to the company later to prepare to go with them.

Unexpectedly, they are the only two people in the restaurant now?

Shao Qian looked at the little bun in confusion: "Hanhan, where's your mom? She hasn't gotten up yet? Shouldn't she?"

Doesn’t she never sleep in even on holidays?

Of course, the little boy knew why Shao Qian didn't go to work today, and knowing that made him feel more sympathetic.

because.......

"Mom went out, saying she was helping Auntie Lin Xuan. After she was done, Auntie Lin Xuan invited her to the Lin family."

"Go to the Lin family? What are you going there for?" Shao Qian asked with a frown.

The little bun rolled his eyes at him. "Of course I'm going to thank Aunt Mei for taking care of us! Speaking of this Uncle Shao, you're being dishonest. Mom said you promised to take her to the Lin family, but it's been almost two weeks since you came back, and I still haven't seen her. Mom says you don't keep your word."

"Uh..." These words left Shao Qian speechless.

It was indeed his problem, but it was because I had been too busy recently. Besides, I asked Brother Lin when I just came back a few days ago what he did to prevent Sister Hu Mei from seeing anyone.

Okay, it’s my fault! Shao Qian looked at the little bun looking at him sideways, and immediately got scared and admitted his mistake.

Since I made a mistake, I could only send my son to school obediently and then go to work with great difficulty.

On the other side, Zhou Xiao finally finished her rescue and breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Xuan happily ran over and hugged her arm: "Thank you so much, Xiaoxiao. If you hadn't been willing to help, we don't know what to do."

Lin Xuan was filming in Shanghai today. Everything was going smoothly, but suddenly a guest actor was hospitalized with a stomachache. This made the director very anxious. Who should he contact as the show is about to start?

If it was just an ordinary role, it would be fine, but this guest appearance was quite important and ordinary supporting actors could not handle it. So Lin Xuan had an idea and recommended Zhou Xiao. Because she had previously asked Zhou Xiao to go to her house today, she knew that Zhou Xiao was free today.

As a result, as soon as Lin Xuan called, Zhou Xiao agreed, since it was just a guest appearance and would not last long.

Zhou Xiao hurriedly ate his meal and came here. It took him a whole morning to finally finish the work.

Zhou Xiao smiled at Lin Xuan and said, "Don't be so polite. Helping each other is nothing!"

"That's not right, Xiaoxiao," the show's director said, grateful for Zhou Xiao's help. "Our show is very expensive, and even a single day's delay costs a lot. I'm truly grateful you came to the rescue. Come on, Xiaoxiao, this is your guest appearance fee. Don't refuse this small token of your appreciation. We'll work together again sometime!"

The director took out a red envelope and forced it into Zhou Xiao's hand. Zhou Xiao did not refuse. Strictly speaking, this kind of guest appearance is similar to a supporting role. Most of them are friendly appearances. They don't ask for money, just give a red envelope and be done with it.

However, Zhou Xiao felt the red envelope and found it was quite thick. He estimated that it was at least 8,888 yuan, which was a good start.
