Chapter 44 I Can't Wait to See You Tomorrow



After seeing the two off, Lu Xiaoqiao sat back at her workstation in a happy mood.

She has been extremely depressed these past few days because of Jin Ling's matter. She sent Jin Ling several messages yesterday but she received no responses and she also did not answer her calls. If she insists on not coming to complete the resignation process, she will definitely not get the money back.

Now she just hopes that this order can be signed smoothly so that she can get more commission and she won't have to worry about the 8,000 yuan anymore.

Lin Lin moved her chair closer to her, pointed her mouth towards Li Na, and whispered, "Someone is so angry, she is just jealous, you two are obviously relatives, why is she like this! She even wants to monopolize the sample fabrics."

Lu Xiaoqiao glanced in Li Na's direction.

"It doesn't matter. The manufacturer said they would mail it to me in the next few days. It will arrive in time."

When I got off work in the evening, it started raining outside.

The rain was not heavy but dense, like countless silver threads slowly falling from the sky.

The weather, which had just returned to warm weather a few days ago, instantly returned to its original state.

Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia did not bring an umbrella, so they ran towards home in the drizzle as soon as they got out of the car, and only had a chance to catch their breath when they went downstairs.

The combat jacket that Lu Xiaoqiao was wearing had a hood, so she didn't get wet at all even after running all the way.

In contrast, the pure cotton jacket that Zhao Jia was wearing today had already been soaked through.

"I'm so pissed off. I wore my sprint jacket for a week and it didn't rain. I washed it today and it started raining. Not only did we both forget to bring an umbrella."

Lu Xiaoqiao looked at Zhao Jia's coat, which was soaked and had become different shades of fabric, and said with some concern: "Jia Jie, go upstairs and take a shower quickly. I'll make you some ginger soup."

"It's okay. I'm not that spoiled."

The two walked upstairs one after the other. Lu Xiaoqiao was thinking about what to eat tonight. Momo recently found a part-time job in a cake shop, and it was just her and Zhao Jia. So they could just cook some noodles. In fact, she hated eating noodles, but noodles were the cheapest.

"Jia, can we cook noodles later? I wonder if there are any tomatoes left in the fridge. If not, we can just make egg noodles."

Zhao Jia, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.

Lu Xiaoqiao wondered why she stopped suddenly.

He glanced at Zhao Jia and followed her line of sight towards the door of his house which was half a flight of stairs up.

Suddenly, her breathing stopped.

I saw a man in a black suit, standing there quietly, his tall figure seemed a little hazy under the dim light.

If it weren't for Zhao Jia's pause, Lu Xiaoqiao would have wondered how she could have become so blind when she was still so young.

Lu Xiaoqiao had been in dire straits these past few days and had completely forgotten about what Zhou Qizhen had asked her to think about for a few days.

She still thought it was a joke. Even if it was true, she had rejected it. How could a proud man like Zhou Qizhen allow himself to be rejected? She thought that what he said was just a polite remark to save face for both parties.

But what does it mean for him to come here now?

Are you really here to ask her for answers?

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoqiao's heartbeat quickened involuntarily, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Such a situation was clearly beyond her ability as she had no emotional experience.

Zhao Jia, who was standing between the two men, was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

What a shocking scene she had witnessed!

Oh my god!

What did Zhao Zhizhi say before?

Oh! A man like Zhou Qizhen would never block the door of his house like a young man.

But who is standing at her door now?

I was dry even though I didn't have an umbrella. It has been raining outside for a long time. I don't know how long I have been standing here waiting.

They had been standing there for a long time, and neither of the two parties had any intention of speaking. But Zhao Jia couldn't wait any longer, she was still soaking wet.

"cough!"

Zhao Jia coughed, trying to break the silent atmosphere with his voice.

"Mr. Zhou, you're off work!"

Zhou Qizheng glanced at Lu Xiaoqiao who was hiding behind Zhao Jia and replied in a low voice: "Yeah! Just got back from a business trip."

No wonder she looked so tired. As a bystander, Zhao Jia was somewhat moved, but the person involved hid behind her and didn't come out.

"Is that so? Mr. Zhou, why don't you come inside and sit for a while? It's raining outside."

After Zhao Jia finished speaking, Zhou Qizhen did not answer but looked at Lu Xiaoqiao behind her, as if seeking her consent.

Looking at the dignified President Jiang Heng, he has to check a woman's face before even sitting in the house for a while when pursuing her.

While Lu Xiaoqiao wasn't paying attention, she leaned sideways on the stair handle, completely exposing Lu Xiaoqiao.

Without Zhao Jiadi's protection, Lu Xiaoqiao could no longer try to evade.

He pretended to brush off the non-existent water on his clothes, then looked up at Zhao Jia.

"Jia Jie, please go in first. I'll go downstairs and talk to Mr. Zhou and then come back up."

At this moment, Zhao Jia felt that Mr. Zhou was really pitiful. He didn't even allow him to come into the house and sit for a while!

"But it's raining outside!"

She wanted to say something good about Zhou Qizhen.

Lu Xiaoqiao looked outside from the staircase platform.

"It's okay, I'll get an umbrella later, and it seems the rain has stopped."

Seeing that she was unmoved, Zhao Jia did not know what to say. After all, matters of the heart have to be decided by oneself, and outsiders can only give advice.

He looked at Zhou Qizhen helplessly, went upstairs, opened the door, and got a folding umbrella for the two of them.

I even picked a small one on purpose, thinking that this was the best I could do to help him.

After Zhao Jia closed the door, leaving the two people outside, without waiting for Zhou Qizhen to say anything, Lu Xiaoqiao turned around and went downstairs first.

When I went down to the first floor, the rain was falling, and the rain seemed hazy and unclear.

After looking around, I didn't see Zhou Qizheng's car: "Mr. Zhou, where is your car?"

"The driver brought me here and I asked him to drive away."

In fact, it was the driver who went to the airport to pick him, Li Yuxuan and Secretary Ding up. As soon as they got out of the airport, he couldn't wait to ask the driver to take him to find Lu Xiaoqiao. After he got out of the car, the driver took the other two people away. Because of this, Li Yuxuan laughed at him all the way.

Lu Xiaoqiao was surprised and asked, "How are you going to get back later?"

"The driver will come to pick me up shortly."

"Then why didn't you let him wait for you here?"

Zhou Qi stared at her for a long time without saying anything.

Well! She admitted that she was a bit out of things to talk about.

Zhou Qizhen didn't give her any chance to escape: "Driver, please send Yuxuan and Secretary Ding off. I will rush to you as soon as I get off the plane. I can't wait to see you tomorrow."

Lu Xiaoqiao couldn't stand him suddenly speaking to her in that way.

It’s really... so earthy and straightforward.

"The rain isn't getting any heavier, let's go outside the community and talk!"

It's time for everyone to go home from get off work. It would be inconvenient for the two of them to just stand here chatting like this. Zhou Qizheng's unique aura and unusual clothes alone are enough to make people irritated. I have been looking back for a long time.

"good."

Zhou Qi was opening the umbrella that Zhao Jiachen had given him upstairs just now. Lu Xiaoqiao was silent as she looked at the umbrella which was obviously not big enough for two people.

"The umbrella is too small. I'm wearing a combat jacket so I'm not afraid of getting wet, and it's not raining much."

Zhou Qizhen said nothing and insisted on holding the umbrella above her head.

The two walked along the wall outside the community. After a while, Lu Xiaoqiao saw that the shoulder of Zhou Qizhen's suit jacket was wet.

I asked him to hold the umbrella towards himself but he refused, but I couldn't just stand by and watch him get wet in the rain.
