Chapter 128
As soon as they got in the car, Ye Qingqing kept talking: "You beat Jiang Chao?! No, how did he offend you?!"
"I heard he was hospitalized. What on earth is going on?!"
Ye Qingqing recalled what the bodyguard said and was shocked. Is her Qiao Er so violent?
Is it to avenge the past? Then why would he wait until now to take action? It must be that Jiang Chao did something during this period to anger Jiang Qiao.
"He scolded me." Jiang Qiao brought up the excuse again.
Ye Qingqing didn’t know whether she believed it or not, her eyes widened. After more than ten seconds, she closed her chin and said, “That’s good, I want to beat him up too…”
Seeing that she stopped asking questions, Jiang Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. The car turned towards the center street. Jiang Qiao wondered, "What are we going to do?"
"A friend of mine has organized a party. All of them are children of famous families in the circle. You can go with them to have fun and make more friends." Ye Qingqing said.
In fact, she had other ideas.
During this period of time, she knew Lu Xun's current status in City A. He was a real business tycoon with ruthless means.
Jiang Qiao, this little fool, has not made any progress in all these years. He is still obsessed with Lu Xun's beauty and cannot extricate himself. He thinks that Lu Xun is still the same boy as before, without any change.
Ye Qingqing was really afraid that Lu Xun would go crazy one day, so she would keep Jiang Qiao at home like a canary and cut off all contact between her and the outside world.
We have to prevent this outcome in advance, Ye Qingqing thought, it would always be a good idea to let Jiang Qiao make more powerful friends.

"After checking, we found that the emotional center had indeed undergone changes. This seemed to be caused by external forces, but we couldn't find out what external force it was. It's very strange." The blond and blue-eyed foreign young man looked regretful: "Oh, Junior Brother Lu, please give me some time, let me ask my teacher and then give you an answer."
Kenley King is a graduate student at a top university in Country M, majoring in biopharmaceuticals. He is three years older than Lu Xun. Guonan invests a fixed amount of funds in the research institute where Kenley King works every year.
“Thank you.” Lu Xun’s expression did not change significantly. He did not look as disappointed and sad as Kenley King had imagined.
He is such a taciturn oriental man. I don’t know how Heidi King could fall in love with such a cold man.
In Chinese, it should be "Fang Xin Mi Xu", right? Kenley King turned around and checked on his phone, and breathed a sigh of relief. Oh, yes, he remembered it right.
"Before the results come out, Junior Lu, please stay at my place first. It will be more convenient." Kenley King invited.
The one who is near the water gets the moon first. This is the Chinese language he just learned.
Oh, he is truly a good brother at the cosmic level. He would do anything for his sister's happiness. He remembered that doing anything was a compliment.
However, the man politely but distantly rejected him and said that he had already booked a place to stay and it was not a problem.
Kenley King gritted his teeth and said, "Then it's always okay for us to have lunch together. Let me show my hospitality."
Having said that, it would be too disrespectful to refuse again. Lu Xun naturally knew this.
Seeing the man nod, Kenley King clapped his hands happily, ran to the side, and called his sister.
Opportunities are fleeting and once lost, they will never come back. Love is now right at your doorstep. Sister, you must do your best. This is all I can do.

In the top-floor private room of the bar, Jiang Qiao's right eyelid twitched twice without warning.
As the saying goes, the left eye twitches for wealth, and the right eye... feudal superstition is unacceptable.
She rubbed her eyelids slightly.
The lights in the box were bright, and smooth and soothing pop music was playing. In the middle was a transparent round table, where several men and women in uniform bar clothes were dancing and swaying to the rhythm of the music.
"What's wrong? Are your eyes hurting?" Peng Yang's voice was a little lower than before, and his posture was much more steady than before. He asked considerately.
Jiang Qiao didn't look at him, his eyes were still on the stage, and he replied, "It's okay."
She didn't expect that Peng Yang would be here. She heard that the Peng family was cheated by a business partner a few years ago and was on the verge of bankruptcy. They sold a lot of their property to keep the company going.
Then, Peng Yang went abroad to study. He just returned to China recently. Instead of taking over the family company, he chose to pursue a career in politics.
This gathering was hosted by him. It was their last gathering before he took office. He didn't know when they would meet again after that. It was easy for officials to be caught if they went in and out of these places.
When Jiang Qiao found out, he was quite surprised and couldn't help but sigh that things in the world are unpredictable.
The lazy and bullying Master Peng was unexpectedly appointed as a waiter.
Most of the people who came to the party were from wealthy families. There were a few who looked familiar, as I had seen them before around Peng Yang and Ye Qingqing, but most of them were unfamiliar to me.
Several people gathered together to talk about investment, luxury cars and business. Jiang Qiao had no interest and didn't understand, so he just sat there watching the handsome men and beautiful women dance.
Peng Yang brought a glass of fruit drink and placed it next to her: "Remember that you can't drink much, drink this."
Jiang Qiao was a little surprised, but since the other person took the initiative to show his kindness, she couldn't just ignore him: "Thank you."
She took a sip of the juice, it was sour and sweet, very refreshing, she couldn't help but take another sip.
Peng Yang looked at her and chuckled, "Qiao'er, you are still the same as before."
Over the years, his friends have changed, and he has changed too. He thought Jiang Qiao was no longer the same person he remembered, but he didn't expect...
Peng Yang chuckled again, and then he thought of something and asked, "I heard from Qingqing that you are together with Lu Xun again?"
"Yes." Jiang Qiao admitted generously.
Peng Yang took a sip of wine and rubbed the glass for a while. Seeing that the girl was watching the dance on the stage with great interest, he joked, "Should I order a few more new dances for you?"
"No need." Jiang Qiao leaned on the black sofa in a relaxed posture and said, "I will be back soon."
The box was very noisy, and there was a strong smell of cigarettes and alcohol, which made her dizzy. In addition, she had been feeling bored recently and had no desire to stay any longer.
Peng Yang glanced at the time and was a little surprised: "You've only been here for half an hour, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Does he care about your return time?"
“…………No.” Jiang Qiao’s lips straightened a little, and he stared at the stage in a daze. He said lightly: “He is on a business trip recently and is not in City A.”
Even if Lu Xun is in City A now, he would probably just tell her to be careful and not care about her time to go home.
Routine and considerate boyfriend.
"Why did you break up in the first place?"
Peng Yang didn't know much about this matter. He heard from someone that Lu Xun went abroad to study and Jiang Qiao disappeared.
Peng Yang also asked people to look for Jiang Qiao, but failed to find him. Later, something happened at home and he was forced to study abroad.
Jiang Qiao finished his juice without saying anything. When he stood up, he felt a little dizzy and the phone in his pocket vibrated at this moment.
