Chapter 57: As Hard as I Thought
Jiang Rao's eyes sparkled with stars. She stared at Ma Qian intently, making her blush with embarrassment.
"Good idea."
Jiang Rao blew Ma Qian a kiss and made up her mind.
When Jiang Rao called Qi Ze, Qi Ze was holding the phone in a daze.
The bar was filled with loud singing.
Qi Ze's phone kept ringing.
Lu Yan came over and reminded softly, "Brother Ze, your phone has been ringing for a long time and you didn't hear it. Are you thinking about Wanqing's return?"
Qi Ze picked up the phone, scolded Lu Yan with a smile, and was stunned when he saw the incoming call.
Lu Yan came over with a grin, and when he saw the caller ID on the screen, his expression became exaggerated. "Who the hell is that, bitch?"
The noise was so loud that several young men who were playing nearby came over to watch the fun.
Qi Ze held his phone screen downwards to prevent them from peeking.
He felt inexplicably unhappy.
The young masters rubbed their noses in frustration and dispersed. Only Lu Yan lingered and chased after Qi Ze, asking, "Who is it?"
Qi Ze slid open his phone and said, "It's your uncle."
Lu Yan stopped immediately.
Qi Ze: “Hello?”
"It's me, Jiang Rao." A voice came from Jiang Rao's side.
Qi Ze listened and inexplicably felt that the noises of those young masters were annoying.
"Can you please do me a favor?" Jiang Rao asked for help in a humble manner and in a low voice.
There is also an inexplicable itchy feeling.
Qi Ze laughed amidst the noise, "Help me, you say."
"Can you transfer me to the Star Dance Opera House?"
Qi Ze sat up and gestured with the dart in his hand, "Because of my brother?"
Jiang Rao didn't hide it, "Yes and no."
"How do you say that?"
"Qi Chen and I see each other all the time, so it's a bit awkward." Jiang Rao paused and said something half-truthful, "Xingwu Opera House has good resources and can win awards."
Qi Ze doesn't believe her at all. She is not an ambitious person, otherwise how could she just lie at home after graduation?
But Qi Ze didn't expose it. The words of refusal were on the tip of his tongue, but the sound he said became "OK".
Jiang Rao was very grateful, but Qi Ze laughed on the other end of the phone, "I helped you, how are you going to repay me?"
"I'll be at your service tonight at the Bay Villa."
Qi Ze made a "hmm" sound in his throat and hung up the phone. Qi Ze came over and smiled slyly, "Brother Ze, are you cheating?"
"none of your business."
Seeing Qi Ze remained silent, Lu Yan did not back down and continued to attack. "Just now I saw Brother Ze smiling with great joy, holding a beautiful girl in his arms. Could you share your romantic stories with me, your little brother?"
Qi Ze glanced at him, threw a dart, and looked at him with a smile, "Want to listen?"
Lu Yan was afraid of death, but his heart was itching at the moment, and it would be worth it even if he died at this moment.
Lu Yan leaned forward and said, "I'm all ears."
Qi Ze had a blank expression on his face. He threw a dartboard at Lu Yan's ear and said, "Stop talking too much."
Lu Yan looked embarrassed, with a look of great regret on his face, and he regretted not getting closer.
After saying that, Qi Ze took the coat from the booth and waved to the young man, "Let's go."
The young masters looked at each other in bewilderment. Lu Yan felt aggrieved and said, "Brother Ze, why don't you stay a little longer? We set up this game especially for you."
"No." Qi Ze made a joke, "Just like you said, soft jade and warm fragrance in my arms."
After Qi Ze left, a group of young men gathered together and murmured, "Why haven't I heard that Brother Ze has any confidantes?"
Another young man spoke up, "And isn't Wanqing coming back soon? Qi Ze and her romance caused a sensation in Beijing back then, this......"
Lu Yan was so disappointed that he slapped them both. "A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover. I think there must be something wrong with the 'slut' in his phone."
"I also heard that last time in Jinna, Brother Ze broke Jiang Feng's head for a woman."
Lu Yan's eyes instantly locked onto the person who said this, "Is this true? How come I don't know about it?"
The man didn't expect Lu Yan to look at him. He was stunned for a few seconds and replied, "I also heard about it the day you just returned to China."
Lu Yan touched his chin, "Is that so!"

Qi Ze left in triumph, never expecting that people around him were discussing his romantic affairs, and he was so angry that he risked his life for the beauty he loved.
Jiang Rao resolved her worries, went home after get off work, changed into a skirt and went out.
This time when I went to the Bay Villa, the treatment was completely different. I came to pick you up specially after hearing the news.
The car drove all the way to the door, Jiang Rao got out, Wen Feng opened the door for her, and when she sat in, Jiang Rao was wondering when she could ask Qi Ze to pick her up.
After she got in the car, Jiang Rao threw this ridiculous idea out of her mind.
Let’s take it one step at a time now.
In this situation, greed will lead to failure. You can’t eat a fat man in one bite.
Wen Feng was still a silent person, and Jiang Rao had ridden in his car several times.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Rao wanted to find out about Qi Ze.
She tilted her head, "You heard the wind, right?"
Wen Feng nodded.
"Let me ask you something." Jiang Rao asked casually, "Does your Master Qi have any other close female friends?"
He shook his head upon hearing this.
Jiang Rao felt relieved.
Jiang Rao cautiously probed again, "What about Zhang Wanqing, do you know?"
Wen Feng pursed his lips and said nothing.
Jiang Rao also felt that she was acting too hastily and smiled awkwardly.
The two of them didn't speak all the way, but when they were almost at the Bay Villa, Wen Feng said something more, "Miss Wanqing is going back to China, and Master Qi should be going to pick her up."
Jiang Rao paused as she got out of the car, then turned around and thanked him, "Thank you."
Wen Feng's words made Jiang Rao's heart plummet.

Qi Ze didn't come to pick her up.
She climbed the stairs by herself, step by step.
Qi Ze was in the study. Jiang Rao raised her hand to knock on the door, and Qi Ze gestured for her to wait outside.
Jiang Rao didn't listen and took advantage of his busy time to tour the entire villa.
When she returned, she was covered in dew. As soon as she returned to the room, Qi Ze hugged her in his arms.
"Went out for a walk?"
"Yeah." Jiang Rao nodded. It was late at night and the dew was heavy. She was shivering with cold.
"Don't you want to wear more clothes?" Qi Ze asked.
Jiang Rao, "It's not very cold."
Qi Ze looked at her. Jiang Rao had good taste in clothes. This outfit made her look graceful and charming, but it was a bit thin.
"Where's the starry sky dress I gave you last time?"
"It's hung in the closet. I want to worship it."
Jiang Rao's answer pleased Qi Ze, "Aren't clothes meant to be worn? Why hang them up?"
Jiang Rao spread his hands with an innocent expression, "Because the tag fell off, I wanted to sell it, but without the tag, it's worthless."
"You're a jerk."
Qi Ze was in a good mood. He turned around and hugged her, pinching the soft flesh on her waist. "You are too thin. Eat more."
Jiang Rao was also very bold. She touched Qi Ze's waist and abdomen with her hands and poked him desperately, teasing him, "Mm, it's very hard."
Qi Ze grabbed her messy hand and asked, "Do you know what you are doing?"
"I know." Jiang Rao smiled and yawned elegantly, her voice provoking a beating. "It's as hard as I imagined."
Qi Ze suddenly pressed towards Jiang Rao.
Jiang Rao let out a groan, her hands hanging around Qi Ze's neck. Her voice was sweet and coquettish as she bargained with him, "Brother Ze, you promised me, when can I be transferred to the Xingwu Opera House?"
"If I say yes, then yes. As for when it can be done, you have to listen to me."
Qi Ze doesn't like to be disturbed when he is doing this kind of thing, and Jiang Rao knows it, so she shuts up in disappointment.
Just as he pressed forward, his cell phone rang.
Jiang Rao tilted her head and saw that the phone on the table belonged to Qi Ze. She had good eyesight.
Jiang Rao saw the words 'Wanqing' on the screen.
Pupils constrict suddenly.
