Chapter 95 Hot Strawberry Latte
She changed the subject, "So you've saved him, and the handsome boy is so short of money, where's he going to make money after he becomes a good person?"
Su Xia frowned and stated seriously, "I was just a waiter."
She planned to keep Xu Jiqing's family affairs strictly confidential and not tell anyone.
He's really good at predicting questions. I'm not good at math, so I asked him to help me with my studies.
Li Chun responded with a thumbs-up.
She is very realistic. [What about your mother?]
[I remember that last month when you were in seclusion in the piano room, Aunt Su came over every day to have lunch with you, fearing you'd run off and start a relationship.]
Su Xia replied, "My mother won't know."
In fact, not long after she got home, she received a call from Su Xiaojuan.
Originally, she wanted to recruit some internationally renowned pattern makers during this trip to Hong Kong, and talk to some potential brands about OEM. However, the foreigners did not trust their high-quality raw materials and would only consider them if the company had its own large-scale cotton plantation.
If you make a decision one step late in the business world, you will lose everything.
Su Xiaojuan is a person who never gives up. The fact that she failed to get the deal actually aroused her fighting spirit. The group was in a hurry and prepared to set off immediately to visit the cotton base in the northwest.
At this time, she is probably already on the plane.
Su Xia thought about it and felt that this must be a trade secret, so she replied vaguely.
My mother is very busy right now. She's probably going on a business trip and won't be back for a long time.
Li Chun sent a face-lifting emoji, [Great! The sky is high and the emperor is far away.]
Su Xia pursed her lips and said, "I'm still young."
Li Chun: [Alright young man, I don't know who said that last time and suddenly bought ten bottles of wine.]
Su Xia's ears felt hot. "That was a special case. Make-up classes are just make-up classes."
I really want to study hard, so I'm definitely not distracted and won't think about anything else.
Li Chun is addicted to playing with cats and sent a series of "You are the best" emoticons.
Su Xia couldn't argue with her, so she didn't want to pay any attention to her and turned off the lights and went to sleep.

In front of the junior sister, he spoke nice words without blinking.
Two days later, on the eve of her first lesson with Xu Jiqing, Su Xia, who was "absolutely focused", could no longer sit still.
He tacitly agreed to hold her hand.
They even held hands twice.
How is this different from dating?
Woo woo.
Without Su Xiaojuan monitoring her at home, Su Xia took the most grand bath since her rebirth. She used every detail from scrub to hair mask, and blew her hair until her hair was fluffy, soft and fragrant.
She tiptoed to her mother's dressing table, took a luxury facial mask, put it on in front of the mirror, and went into the cloakroom to choose clothes for an hour.
When people are excited to a certain extent, it is more refreshing than strong tea or coffee.
After tossing and turning for most of the night, Su Xia finally made it to dawn. While brushing her teeth, she was struggling to put back the outfit she had chosen before going to bed.
What I finally decided on was a light blue dress that had been kept in the bottom of the closet because I was so well-behaved. I put all the cosmetics back to their original places and only applied two coats of lip balm.
In the dim morning light, Su Xia turned left and right in front of the mirror at the door, took a deep breath and walked out of the house.
I probably didn't use too much force.
...There's nothing I can do about it.
She just looks like this, and no matter how hard she tries, she can't be more plain.
During normal daytime hours, Xu Jiqing's time was almost entirely occupied by the group of junior high school competition students, and the only free time squeezed out for her was 8 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
The location was not the KFC she was used to, but the Starbucks in the same building.
It was just after seven o'clock when Su Xia arrived.
Sunlight streams through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the air is filled with the rich aroma of coffee beans.
The clerk had just put on his green apron and taken his position behind the counter. He seemed to have never expected that any customers would come to the store at this time. He stuttered for a while before shouting "Welcome".
Su Xia smiled.
After searching my memory for a long time, I still couldn't remember what Xu Jiqing liked to drink, so I ordered two iced American coffees in a stereotypical way.
Unlike the fast food restaurant on the second floor, the music here is softer, the environment is more elegant, and there is not a trace of fried chicken smell.
Some people come here to study, but once the average consumption goes up, there are obviously fewer people.
Su Xia spread out the final exam paper she brought on the table, spinning a pen while staring blankly outside the wooden door.
Young men and women sat down one after another, put on headphones, took out laptops from their bags, and their fingers flew on the keyboard.
People who are as self-disciplined as Xu Jiqing are generally very punctual.
There was still half an hour before the meeting, and Su Xia was already getting nervous. She couldn't even continue looking at the wrong questions that she had originally wanted to review carefully.
She took out a small mirror from her bag and adjusted her hair. While she was still debating whether to tie her hair up, she suddenly heard a familiar voice, "Sister Xia Xia!"
Su Xia looked up.
Xu Jiaojiao's pigtails were longer than last time. She was carrying a small schoolbag, wearing a green short-sleeved shirt and white shorts. She looked like a cabbage just pulled out of the ground, jogging towards her.
I wanted to dive into her arms, but when I got close, I felt shy. I put my hands behind my back and moved shyly, my face flushed. "Sister, long time no see. You look so beautiful today!"
Su Xia was sitting on the sofa against the wall.
Xu Jiaojiao jumped up, sat down next to her, supported her hands behind her back, tilted her head and grinned at her.
A straight and neat figure, Xu Jiqing followed behind her.
Su Xia's heart started beating suddenly.
She didn't dare to look up for a moment, and just said hello hastily, and subconsciously asked Xu Jiaojiao, "Why are you here so early?"
"Because my brother said that I can't let my sister wait."
The elementary school student looked innocent and sighed softly, "But I still waited."
"Xu Jiaojiao, go to the next table."
Xu Jiqing pulled out a chair, put down his bag, and started to chase the people away.
"All right."
The little girl listened to her brother very much, pouted her lips, and moved down reluctantly.
"...No, no," Su Xia was stunned for a moment, "Jiaojiao is fine here, she's very well behaved and won't affect me."
She almost forgot.
Xu Jiqing always takes his sister with him whenever he goes out.
The imagined date turned into part-time babysitting. Su Xia accepted it quickly and was even a little relieved.
It was good that Xu Jiaojiao was there, because there was someone else to talk to her, so she wouldn't be so confused about what to do.
The primary school student couldn't contain his joy, he shouted "Yeah", sat down again, and wiggled his little butt.
Worried about being chased away by her brother again, she obediently took out a storybook from her schoolbag, lowered her presence to a minimum, shut up and started flipping through the pages.
Only then did Xu Jiqing sit down.
It was a small walnut square table, and with the addition of another person across from it, even the air became thinner.
The coffee aroma is no longer pure.
The air conditioning was very cool, and the scent of Xu Jiqing was faintly wafting in, along with the scent of laundry soap and the cool fragrance of mint shampoo, which was refreshing, cool, and clean.
It’s not time to officially start yet.
The boy took the test paper from the table and began to look at it. He placed a pencil on the base of his left hand and casually pressed it on the paper.
Near the table, next to the iced Americano she ordered, there was an untouched cup of hot strawberry latte.
The packaging was white, and in the frame of the customer's name, "Su" was written with a marker.
