Chapter 147
No one else can act like a hooligan like her.
Jiang Qiao was like an eggplant hit by frost, wilting and letting the man do whatever he wanted.
After the initial numbness, the lip flesh began to feel a slight pain, and the pain became more obvious when touched by tissue paper.
“Stop it…” She spoke unclearly, not daring to look the man in the eye.
Lu Xun carefully checked it again and confirmed that it was just a small swelling on her lip. Then he let her go and said in an unquestionable tone: "You can't eat spicy food in the next few days."
Jiang Qiao: “……………………”
Jiang Qiao felt the numbness and pain on her lips, glanced guiltily at the man's visibly scarred face, and nodded in frustration.
It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the commercial street was extremely lively, crowded with people, and there were lanterns and snacks everywhere on both sides of the road, as well as lantern riddle guessing games.
While waiting for the traffic light, Jiang Qiao looked outside eagerly, almost sticking her head out. Lu Xun stared at the girl's round little head for a while and asked, "Want to go out and play?"
Jiang Qiao turned around immediately after hearing this, his eyes sparkling, excitement written all over his face.
But she still pretended to be reserved: "It's OK. If you want to go, I can accompany you."
She was a mature adult, not a child who wanted to join in the fun everywhere. However, if Lu Xun really wanted to go out and play, she could reluctantly accompany him, because she was a considerate girlfriend.
Jiang Qiao convinced himself with his theory and waited happily for Lu Xun to say "I want to play"
The man in front of him said calmly, "Then go home."
Jiang Qiao: “……………………”
Jiang Qiao: “!!!”
"I didn't say I won't accompany you!" She was anxious, her teeth knocked against her lip again, and tears surged in pain.
Perhaps because she felt embarrassed, the girl covered her mouth, turned her head away, and pressed her forehead against the car window, looking like a miserable little cabbage.
Lu Xun: “…………………………”
Lu Xun stared at her miserable appearance. He couldn't say a word. After a while, he compromised and said, "Okay, I want to go out and play."
As soon as the voice fell, the girl who had been dejected just now immediately sat up straight, wiped her tears, and pouted her swollen lips, and said in a crisp voice: "I know you like these, but you still don't admit it."
The speed of changing faces is beyond the reach of others.
Lu Xun pinched his brows, feeling both angry and amused.
There was a lot of traffic and it was hard to find a parking space. Fortunately, there was a hotel owned by the Guonan Group nearby. After parking the car, Lu Xun got out and said in a neutral tone, "Are you still not getting off?"
Jiang Qiao put on a mask and a hat and got out of the car happily. He could already smell the aroma of snacks when he was still a few meters away from the entrance of the commercial street.
Grilled squid…starch sausage…meat and egg casserole…marbled chicken fillet…oden…
Jiang Qiao couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said, "Lu Xun, do you like grilled squid?"
“I don’t like it.” Lu Xun’s tone remained unchanged.
Jiang Qiao was not discouraged: "It's delicious, you'll know once you try it!"
Lu Xun's expression remained calm: "Oh."
Jiang Qiao: “……………………”
Jiang Qiao turned his head away angrily and ignored him.
Lu Xun frowned, but still said, "Does your mouth hurt anymore?"
“I can eat it without any spiciness.”
“………………………………”
There were crowds of people around, the sounds of hawking and playing mixed together, the trees on the roadside were hung with lanterns, and the girl raised her innocent and pretty face, wearing a mask, and only her eyes could be seen, clear and with a little eager expectation.
Lu Xun was silent for a few seconds and said, "You can only eat one."
Agreed?!
Jiang Qiao nodded immediately, his eyes brightened, and he was ready to buy it.
There were many people queuing up to buy squid, and men and women were very close to each other, touching each other from time to time. Lu Xun frowned, grabbed the girl's wrist, lowered his head and said, "Go sit over there and wait for me."
There were chairs for people to rest on the roadside. Thinking that he would be able to eat squid soon, Jiang Qiao was unusually obedient and nodded.
You have to be timid when you need to be timid.
After sending Jiang Qiao to the lounge chair, Lu Xun turned back to buy squid. He was tall and had a good temperament. Jiang Qiao could spot him at a glance in the crowd.
Two cute girls came up to talk to him. I don’t know what Lu Xun said, but they left with some regret.
Humph, even with a disfigured face, he can still attract men. Jiang Qiao’s lips are pouted high under the mask.
The restaurant not far away has huge French windows, which allow guests to clearly see the lively scene outside.
"Cousin, what are you looking at?" Jiang Wu asked coldly.
The man opposite slowly retracted his gaze and smiled gently: "Nothing, just a kitten."
A lonely kitten.
"Oh." Jiang Wu was not interested. He took a crisp date and ate it in two or three bites.
Seeing the man opposite him slowly start to eat, he finally lost his patience and asked, "What on earth do you want from me?"
"Nothing." Jiang Chao said slowly: "I just want to discuss a business with you."
Talk business with him?
Jiang Wu was amused: "Cousin, I am just an actor and I am not involved in the operation of Jiang Corporation. You have found the wrong person."
Jiang Chao seemed to have known he would say that. His expression didn't change as he said, "It has nothing to do with the company."
He smiled and said, "I heard that you are very interested in the new movie directed by Zhang Kang."
Zhang Kang is the most famous director in the domestic entertainment industry. In the five films he directed since his debut, he produced three Best Actor winners and two Best Actress winners.
Jiang Wu narrowed his eyes and looked more serious: "What do you mean?"
"I can help you." Jiang Chao said, "But you have to do me a favor too."
"Tell me about it."
Jiang Chao smiled and said something. Jiang Wu was a little surprised: "That's it?"
"Yes." Jiang Chao said, "That's it."
The corner of Jiang Wu's mouth twitched. He thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be just like this. Spying on a little girl was really perverted.
*
There were too many people in line, and Jiang Qiao waited for a long time before seeing Lu Xun. When he saw the things he bought, Jiang Qiao immediately stretched out his hand.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xun handed her a cup of soy milk: "Drink some first."
Jiang Qiao's eyes widened slightly, and he took it reluctantly and drank a few sips: "Okay, you can grill the squid for me now."
Another group of people came forward. Lu Xun leaned over to protect the girl and handed her the grilled squid.
It was freshly made and still a little hot, exuding the unique aroma of squid. Jiang Qiao hid in his arms and blew on it, then took a careful bite and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
This is the taste. It will be even better if you add some chili.
Lu Xun's face was pale. He held her half-drunk soy milk and a rice cake in one hand, and protected her tightly with the other hand.
He had a serious expression and a cold and indifferent temperament, but there was a red and swollen patch on his cheek, as if he had been scratched. It was inexplicably funny.
The list of thanks will be presented tomorrow~
Love you love you love you love you!!!
