Chapter 124
"I will make him regret it." Lu Xun promised.
Jiang Qiao was still upset and ignored him with a stern face, but Lu Xun stopped talking too.
“……………………”
If it were in the past, Lu Xun would definitely lower his voice and coax her a few more times in a non-awkward way. Jiang Qiao suppressed the pain in her heart and tried not to be too sad.
Jiang Qiao knew that this was not Lu Xun's original intention. He was just affected by the "emotional reversal". Perhaps tracing back to the source, it was she who caused Lu Xun to suffer.
Intellectually, she shouldn't blame Lu Xun, but emotionally, she couldn't help but feel sad. Jiang Qiao knew that she was spoiled by Lu Xun, and now the man's slight indifference made her feel unbearable.
She took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a little powerless, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't blame you..."
The girl lowered her head, looking inexplicably obedient and aggrieved.
Lu Xun was silent for a while, then imitated his previous actions, pressing his fingertips under the girl's slightly red eyes and rubbing them soothingly.
………………
Jiang Qiao's long eyelashes trembled, and the corners of her eyes became even redder.
The two walked to the entrance of the banquet hall and met Wang Jie who had been waiting for a long time. Lu Xun glanced at the distracted girl and whispered something to Wang Jie. Wang Jie nodded and left.
As soon as Lu Xun stepped into the banquet hall, the wealthy businessmen who were chatting with him immediately came over respectfully to chat with him, calling him Mr. Lu and Mr. Lu, and saying that they had heard of your great name for a long time...
There were a lot of people around, so Jiang Qiao left Lu Xun and walked to the side.
In the middle of the crowd, Lu Xun had a cold face and searched for a few seconds. When he saw the girl walking towards the cake area, he retracted his gaze and responded to everyone in a flat tone.
Jiang Qiao ate dessert to relieve his depressed mood and looked at the people passing by with boredom.
Several bigwigs who often appeared in the Financial Daily gathered around Lu Xun at the same time, talking about something with smiles on their faces.
The man who was the center of attention had handsome features and a polite and distant expression. After others spoke for several sentences, he would reply coldly with a few brief words.
How cold-hearted, indifferent to everyone, Jiang Qiao thought angrily.
She scanned the crowd and suddenly realized something was wrong. There were bigwigs from all walks of life, some who were often interviewed, some who were low-key, and their faces were unfamiliar.
Jiang Qiao's brows suddenly furrowed. Where is Jiang Chao?
She slowly discovered that Jiang Chao was not here.
Jiang Qiao searched the entire banquet hall in a panic. After a careful look, he did not see Jiang Chao. An image suddenly flashed through his mind: Lu Xun whispered something to Wang Jie...
He had Jiang Chao thrown out?!
What about her plan?!
Jiang Qiao's breathing quickened for a moment. In a flash, she didn't have time to think about it. She walked out the door quickly, avoiding Lu Xun's sight.
With the help of the waiter, we found the black Maybach. Fortunately, the car keys were kept by the waiter.
She opened the car, took out her phone, and immediately sent a message: "Plan ahead."
Halfway up the mountain, on the only way back to the city.
A black Bentley sped past. In the driver's seat, Jiang Chao's face was gloomy: "Oh, is this the ability that only advanced systems can use?"
When he thought about how he was "asked" to leave the courtyard, the gloom in Jiang Chao's eyes became even more intense, and it was almost impossible to see the former warmth on his face.
He was like a performer who had finally taken off his mask. Perhaps, long ago, this mask was his true face.
As time changes, the real face turns into a false mask and then gradually falls off.
[014, Don’t you want to explain?] Jiang Chao’s tone was cold.
014The system is silent.
It was still in shock, the complex code was almost a mess, and it couldn't find any clue.
How is it possible? He was only slightly affected. What a strong willpower.
[…………Things have proven that his emotions have indeed been wiped out.] 014 said in a cold, mechanical voice: [In due time, he will definitely separate from his female partner.]
[In time?] Jiang Chao sneered: [He has no emotions now. I think he likes Jiang Qiao very much.]
[This is just your idea. Facts will prove that the capabilities of advanced systems are stronger than you think.]
[I hope so.]
Jiang Chao's gloomy expression was about to fade away a little when a van suddenly appeared on the empty and narrow road ahead.
The van came straight at us without warning.
Jiang Chao's pupils shrank suddenly, and he subconsciously turned the steering wheel to avoid the grass. The wheel seemed to have run over something, and the moment it hit the grass, it skidded wildly and crashed into the guardrail at the edge. If it had been an inch off, it would have been a cliff.
The airbag popped out after a severe collision. Between life and death, Jiang Chao gasped violently and quickly unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.
In front of me, a van was parked quietly, and several tall and strong men got out.

At 11 a.m., City A time, Gu Xing helped the old man into the banquet hall and politely thanked those who came to celebrate his birthday.
He also announced in a simple and clear manner that Gu Xing would be the head of the Gu family from now on, and hoped that everyone present would take good care of them.
Gu Xing's parents were all smiles, obviously they had known about it for a long time. Gu Xing, on the other hand, stood there in bewilderment, stiffly accepting everyone's congratulations.
The audience were all big shots. They were stunned for a moment, but soon realized that this old man Gu was really not senile.
Among the younger generation of the Gu family, Gu Xing is definitely not the best, but he has one good thing - he is good at making friends.
Guonan's president, Lu Xun, was a ruthless man who built a business empire from scratch. His special assistant, Wang Jie, was also a smiling tiger who played both black and white.
With the help of these two people, even if Gu Xing is a fool, he can be helped up, not to mention that he is not a bad person either.
He was a top student from a top school. He took over Manxing and made it very successful in just a few years. He was also a person who was pretending to be a pig but was actually a tiger.
After saying the most important thing, Mr. Gu went back to his room to rest, saying he was not feeling well.
The birthday banquet began, the host arranged the seats, and everyone took their seats.
After everyone was seated, Jiang Qiao's face was numb. She didn't know who arranged this seat. She actually sat next to Lu Xun. Except for her, all the people at this table were well-known bigwigs.
"Boss Lu, who is this lady?" A business executive looked at Lu Xun with a puzzled tone.
I haven't heard that Mr. Lu from Guonan got married. Whose daughter is this girl? How come I haven't heard of her?
His surname is Jiang, and there used to be a Jiang company, but it went bankrupt a long time ago, some people thought.
Lu Xun's expression remained unchanged. Just as he was about to speak, Gu Xing beside him said with a smile, "My sister-in-law."
Everyone: “………………………………” Huh? ?
Jiang Qiao: “…………………………” Damn it.
What kind of introduction is this? You are the one introducing it?
Silence, long silence,
Gu Xing, however, acted as if nothing had happened and winked at Lu Xun, asking for credit: "Right, Brother Xun."
“………………………………”
