Chapter 761 Do you prefer excitement?
Qiao Xi only said to Shen Xuanzhi, "Be careful on the road."
Then she walked towards the black luxury car outside the Chinese Medicine Association, her steps unconsciously brisk and eager.
When I walked up to the man.
She then slowed down her tone and said, "Why are you here?"
Huo Xingzhou in front of him was wearing formal attire, and his whole body exuded an abstinence and coldness.
She is tall and graceful, with a distant look in her eyes.
Keep away from strangers.
Qiao Xi thought silently in her heart that the two of them were still in a cold war.
Is it... that the tone is a little too intimate?
She feigned indifference and said, "With Lao Chen accompanying me, nothing will go wrong. Aren't you very busy lately? There's no need to waste your time on me. Seeing you dressed so formally, it must be something important."
What he said was a bit irritating.
Huo Xingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and said calmly: "Didn't you want me to come?"
Qiao Xi was a little annoyed and confused: "When did I say such a thing?"
Huo Xingzhou took out his mobile phone and clicked on the screenshot of the album.
The above is a screenshot of the other party typing, and the time shown is morning.
He looked at her with his cold eyes, almost seeing through Qiao Xi.
Silent, yet extremely stressful.
Qiao Xi couldn't help but pursed her lips. "I sent it to the wrong person, so I deleted it. I originally wanted to send a message to Shu Xue."
"oh."
He responded, his tone full of disbelief.
"Is Shuxue also your pinned post? How could you post it wrongly like this?"
He is the only one in her pinned message.
So there is no possibility of sending it by mistake.
Qiao Xi bit her cheek. Did he really have to make it clear?
She suddenly felt a little annoyed and discouraged. "Yes, I wanted to send you a message this morning. I wanted to ask if you were busy with the economic development plan for Moon Village recently and if you needed my help."
"Why don't you ask me if I've slept well in the guest room lately? If I'm not used to being alone?"
"You...didn't you sleep alone before you got married? What's there to be uncomfortable with?"
She is still being stubborn.
Huo Xingzhou looked down at her, his stubborn nature coming back again.
He stretched out his fingers, pinched her lips, and spoke in a light tone.
"The mattress in the guest room is not as comfortable as the master bedroom. When can I go back to sleep?"
"It's your home, you can sleep whenever you want."
"Then don't lock the door tonight."
He is very good at seizing opportunities and will not keep the cold war to give the male green tea who is eyeing him outside a chance.
Qiao Xi's anger had subsided, but she still felt a little embarrassed.
So he said in a somewhat awkward tone, "Aren't the keys to the villa in the cabinet downstairs? If you want to come in, you can. Besides, the second floor is not very high."
You can enter from the terrace.
"Oh, you like me to climb over the wall. Is that more exciting?"
"Huo Xingzhou!"
She shouted in a low voice, with a hint of warning in it.
Old Chen stood not far from them, covering his mouth and laughing out loud.
This laughter made Qiao Xi even more angry and embarrassed. She opened the car door and got in.
Old Chen quickly said, "I'm sorry, Master. This was just too funny. So I couldn't help myself..."
Huo Xingzhou glanced at him and said, "Starting today, watch three hours of funny short videos every day. When you can stop laughing, I'll give you a bonus."
"yes."
Old Chen is innocent.
His sense of humour is not very high, so the prize is probably a long way off.
Huo Xingzhou sat in the back seat, about a fist's distance away from Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi moved her seat closer to the car window, looking as if she didn't like him very much.
The car is moving.
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his fingers and stroked the back of her hand.
Qiao Xi moved her hand away.
He squeezed her fingers again and scratched her palm with his fingertips.
A little itchy.
Qiao Xi almost couldn't hold it in.
She glanced at him sideways: "What?"
"Your hands are a little cold, let me warm them up for you." His big palms wrapped around her hands, transferring the warmth to her skin.
Qiao Xi's heart suddenly softened.
She whispered, "Aren't you going to ask me what happened at the Chinese Medicine Association today?"
"I want you to tell me first."
Qiao Xi raised the corner of her lips slightly and said, "I signed a three-year contract with the Lu family to supply medicinal materials. They also agreed to abolish the north-south boundary. Maybe they thought Grandpa Cheng was really dead, so it went better than I expected."
She thought it would take a long time.
Everyone says that Lu Bannong is suspicious, but perhaps the recent series of happy events in the Lu family have diluted his caution.
This gave her an opportunity.
"The little doctor is really amazing."
He never hesitates to praise her.
Because he knew she had a hard time in her youth and must have suffered a lot of oppression during that time. In economically backward areas, girls always have a harder time growing up than boys.
Qiao Xi's tone lightened. "Lu Bannong is resigning, and Lu Yingxue unanimously approved the election for the next president. Given this father and daughter's pursuit of fame and fortune, they should be making an announcement soon."
It’s great that Lu Yingxue is the president!
The affair between her and Zhong Lingxiao was the foundation of a towering building.
Once the foundation is destroyed, no matter how tall the building is, it will collapse.
There can only be one most suitable opportunity.
"This is a pleasant surprise."
Huo Xingzhou had not expected that Lu Bannong would give up the position of president to Lu Yingxue.
"I think Lu Bannong isn't in good health. He might have been so exhausted recently that he doesn't have the mood to deal with the association's trivial matters. However, since his daughter controls the Chinese Medicine Association, many important matters still require his approval. This makes no difference to Lu Bannong."
How could a person who has held power for so many years let it go so easily?
It's just a different way of doing things.
"This is a good thing for us. Lu Bannong has been running the business for many years without leaving any traces, but Lu Yingxue is different."
Huo Xingzhou put his arm around her waist and said, "Why are you wearing so little today? The temperature in the capital has dropped again. There might be heavy snow tonight."
Qiao Xi leaned into his arms and said, "That's enough."
She rubbed her cheek against his collar and said, "I really don't have any romantic feelings for Zhong Yi."
Huo Xingzhou said softly, "Then I want to eat vegetable rice cakes. I want whatever he has. Eating it occasionally won't burden my stomach."
"Okay, I'll make it for you when I get home."
Qiao Xi felt a little helpless. He was so persistent about some things!
"I'm afraid not today. I have a family dinner."
Huo Xingzhou spoke calmly and told Lao Chen the name of a big hotel.
Qiao Xi raised her head and looked at him and asked, "Has mother-in-law come to the imperial capital?"
"No."
"Is that the Liu family?"
"Not really. It can be a family dinner, or a small, ordinary dinner. It all depends on what everyone says..."
What kind of party was that?
