Qin Ge held her and put her in the car, fastening her seat belt, although few people would fasten the belt at that time. His eyes swept over her and saw many red bumps on Shengxia's white legs caused by mosquito bites.
Shengxia woke up and looked down as Qin Ge was looking. She scratched herself twice, feeling itchy, and muttered, "Just now on the phone, I made you scold me. You didn't scold me then, and you can't scold me now..."
Qin Ge just glared at her, having no way to deal with her. He took her hand away to stop her from scratching.
He drove and took Shengxia to a nearby hotel that looked well decorated.
Shengxia had never been here before. Qin Ge parked the car and said to Shengxia, "Wait for me in the car. I'll go upstairs and get a room."
Shengxia nodded and waited for a while. Qin Ge came back. He took the room key and carried Shengxia upstairs. Shengxia went in and saw the price list on the wall in the hall. She glared at him and said, "Qin Ge, this place is so expensive. It's over a hundred yuan a night..."
"Yeah. It's good. There's hot water here."
After entering the house, Qin Ge turned on the shower in the bathroom. He put Shengxia on the sink with one hand. Shengxia felt that after not seeing each other for such a long time, Qin Ge had become stronger.
She touched Qin Ge's eyebrows and eyes: "It seems that he has become a little darker..."
Qin Ge squatted down and took off her shoes. This was how they had always gotten along, as natural as breathing.
Even though the two had just had an argument on the phone, they were not affected at all.
"Boss Xu has given you so many things to do. Isn't it very tiring?"
"fine."
"You're lying. It must be very hard for you. You don't even have time to call me during the day. You must be taking care of many things and trying to cut down on time and costs. If you weren't extremely busy, you definitely wouldn't call me at night."
Qin Ge stood up, rinsed a piece of soap under the tap, and gently applied it to the mosquito bites on Shengxia. After applying it, he checked Shengxia's arms and legs that were exposed outside the clothes and said to Shengxia, "Roll up your clothes so I can take a look."
Shengxia obediently rolled up her clothes, revealing her thin belly and back.
"Don't you feel tired when I'm so delicate?"
Hearing Shengxia say this, Qin Ge stopped what he was doing and looked up at Shengxia.
Sheng Xia couldn't describe the feeling in that look, she could only sense the doubt within. Sheng Xia felt uncomfortable with him looking at her, so she reached out and pushed his face: "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Why do you ask that?" Qin Ge asked her.
"What why?"
Seeing that Shengxia didn't understand, Qin Ge thought for a while and became more determined in his thoughts.
He threw Shengxia's socks into the water, then looked at Shengxia and frowned and said, "You never asked this question before. Who taught you this? You've only been in school for a few days?"
It took Shengxia a while to understand what Qin Ge meant. She didn't know what to say, and she couldn't help laughing.
Qin Ge tore open the shampoo he bought at the front desk and squeezed it into his palm, then asked Shengxia to lower her head and wet her hair and rub it into her hair: "What are you laughing at? Why aren't you crying anymore?"
Shengxia nodded her head under his hand: "Qin Ge, I deserve to be scolded for being so pretentious." Who else would be like him and blame her classmates for teaching her bad things?
"If you do something wrong, I will scold you, but this matter is not your fault. Is it necessary to make you cry?" Qin Ge turned her face away. In his eyes, anything that could make Shengxia cry was related to that matter.
Qin Ge added, "I guess your dormitory isn't a good place. If that doesn't work out, I can rent you a house outside and you can just go to school as a day student."
Shengxia was just deeply moved, but now she was speechless.
"Qin Ge, do you have to put the blame on others?" Shengxia was completely defeated, and she asked speechlessly.
Qin Ge nodded.
He actually nodded!
Shengxia was about to say something, but when she looked up and saw the hot water flowing down Qin Ge's head and across his tall nose, she was instantly speechless.
Shengxia's throat felt congested. "Then...at least, wait until you come back from the mountain city...is that okay?"
When Qin Ge heard this, perhaps because he rarely saw Shengxia so obedient, he put his arm around Shengxia's waist and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
The next morning, Qin Ge took Shengxia to the nearest bank to deposit the money.
He brought back all the more than 30,000 yuan that Xu Jianhong gave him. He kept the change and opened an account for Shengxia in the bank and deposited the remaining 30,000 yuan.
Shengxia looked carefully at the numbers on the passbook and counted them over and over again.
Qin Ge packed the passbook for Sheng Xia and said, "I have something to do in Shancheng, so I have to go back. If you need money, just come here and get it. I just taught you."
Shengxia nodded: "Okay, okay, I remember it. Can you not act like you did just now, as if I were mentally retarded? The staff at the counter laughed at me. Just tell me once and I will remember it."
Qin Ge reached out and touched her head, tucking her messy bangs behind her ears, revealing her beautiful eyebrows and eyes. She had just cried yesterday, so fortunately, her eyebrows were not swollen today. "Your hair has grown a little long."
"Then I'll wait for you to come back and cut it for me?"
"good".
Xu Jianhong's car was parked near the school. Qin Ge looked at the time and estimated that Zhou Haibo and the others would be here by the time he got back.
"Do you want to go to the mountain city with me?"
Shengxia agreed to go to the bar to sing, and it was too unfair for her not to take her height into consideration. Besides, she really wanted to try whether she could do it.
The constantly changing ambiguous lights swept across the tables, wine glasses, and pokers of the men and women in the audience. There were already people dancing in the dance floor. Shengxia held the microphone tightly in both hands, and a beam of light shone on the stage.
Qin Ge drove to Tianyu. The local *** and other leaders of the mountain city had already accompanied Zhou Haibo on a tour of the factory and equipment.
At the meeting, Qin Ge and Xu Jianhong sat at the back with the employees of Hexing, where a row of leaders from Shancheng sat.
As soon as the host introduced Zhou Haibo who was sitting in the middle, someone immediately bent down and handed him the microphone.
Zhou Haibo was younger than many people in the audience imagined, perhaps around forty. Last year, he was transferred from Beijing to Shancheng as director of the Bureau of Land and Resources. As soon as his transfer order came in, people from both the political and business worlds eager to curry his favor were lining up at his door.
The host then introduced Zhou Haibo, who was sitting next to him. He was a slightly plump, middle-aged man who looked very friendly. He took the microphone and said, "Don't be nervous, everyone. We are all one family."
The Hexing employees below the stage burst into laughter, and Song Xiaoqing, who was sitting in the front, led the applause.
Qin Ge asked Xu Jianhong: "Boss Xu, who is this?"
