Chapter 163
"Hello, Mr. Lu,"
"Mr. Lu, I am......"
The sons of wealthy or noble families, seeing the man coming in, immediately stood up and greeted him with a respectful attitude.
One of them had ordinary features, was tall, and had an outstanding temperament. He smiled and stretched out his hand:
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry to bother you. I heard from Gu Xing that this resort is owned by the Guonan Group and is not easily open to the public. We are lucky to have benefited from it."
The man was frank and spoke naturally. Lu Xun politely extended his hand and shook it back: "No, you're too polite, Mr. Liu."
Liu Lin, the heir to Haicheng's No. 1 enterprise, Guonan Group took over a tourism development project some time ago, and the Liu family has always wanted to invest in it and get a piece of the pie.
This person was very thoughtful. Lu Xun did not want to cooperate with him, but considering that the Liu family was a family friend of the Gu family, he did not refuse immediately.
I didn't expect this person to follow me here.
Liu Lin didn't seem to feel that his behavior was shameless at all. Instead, he glanced at the girl next to the man and asked in confusion: "Mr. Lu, who is this......"
"Jiang Qiao, my love." Lu Xun's tone remained unchanged and his attitude was natural, as if he was narrating a fact that everyone knew.
Liu Lin was a little surprised, but remained calm on the surface: "So it's Mr. Lu's lover, hello, Miss Jiang."
Jiang Qiao hadn't come back to his senses yet, and was stunned by Liu Lin's words.
This resort... belongs to Lu Xun?
When did he buy it? Why?
An answer was almost on the horizon, but Jiang Qiao didn't dare to think about it.
Liu Lin called out "Miss Jiang" again in confusion, and Jiang Qiao came back to her senses and responded politely with a smile.
After a few more pleasantries, Liu Lin tactfully invited Lu Xun to dinner. Lu Xun knew that he wanted to try to get a cooperation project, so he did not refuse.
"Then we won't disturb you, Mr. Lu. Please go back to your room and have a rest. We can talk in detail later." Liu Lin achieved his goal, his smile became even more intense, and he spoke with discretion.
Lu Xun nodded politely and walked towards the elevator holding Jiang Qiao's hand.
Everyone else lives on the third and fourth floors. The fifth floor is quiet. When you open the door, you can smell the fresh sea salt aromatherapy.
The room was very clean. Jiang Qiao opened the curtains and saw several strings of shell products hanging on both sides of the floor-to-ceiling windows. They looked very beautiful. Looking out, there was an endless blue ocean.
There are many large and small ships on the sea.
Lu Xun took out the washed sheets and quilt cover from the suitcase and started to change them quickly. Jiang Qiao approached him hesitantly: "I'll help you..."
Seeing Lu Xun lowering his eyes and not speaking, Jiang Qiao coughed twice, breaking the silence: "You just said I was your lover?"
Lu Xun raised his eyelids and glanced at her. His meaning was very clear—you heard it and still asked?
Jiang Qiao was a little embarrassed. After struggling for a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this resort yours?"
“Why are you asking this?” Lu Xun paused while tidying up the sheets and did not answer directly.
The more he did this, the more Jiang Qiao couldn't help it.
She wanted to ask Lu Xun if he built this resort for her, but she was afraid to hear a positive answer.
But if she didn't ask, Lu Xun would keep it to himself forever.
"Lu Xun...is it because of me?" Jiang Qiao asked softly, "You bought this beach and built a private resort because of me?"
The girl left no room for negotiation and asked directly, not allowing him to evade the question.
Lu Xun stopped moving, lowered his eyes, and rolled his Adam's apple, but did not answer.
People are sometimes very contradictory.
He always hoped that Jiang Qiao could feel his love, but more often than not, he would try his best to hide it and not want Jiang Qiao to find out.
Love that is too strong will make people feel pressured, and he doesn't want Jiang Qiao to feel pressured.
“………………No.” Lu Xun slowly said against his will, and then he resigned himself to waiting for the girl’s judgment.
He thought that Jiang Qiao might be angry or disappointed.
Unexpectedly, the next second I heard the girl say, "You're lying."
Jiang Qiao took a deep breath and said, "Lu Xun, I don't want to believe what you say."
"You did it for me, why don't you admit it!" Jiang Qiao pretended to be dumb and said indignantly: "Is it so hard to admit that you love me?! Am I unworthy?!"
Lu Xun: “……………………”
Lu Xun didn't want to talk anymore. He felt that his worries just now were just pretentious complaints.
Jiang Qiao was still babble-ing. Lu Xun pinched her cheek, turned her to the side, and said expressionlessly: “Don’t talk to me.”
Jiang Qiao: “…………………………”
Okay, okay, I'm angry because of shame.
Jiang Qiao was pinched on the cheek by him, unable to speak coherently, shaking his head and struggling like a slippery fish.
Lu Xun had a headache watching her, so he let her go.
Jiang Qiao was free and immediately rubbed her red face. Her cell phone rang and she pulled her resentful gaze away from Lu Xun.
It was Ye Qingqing, asking her if she had arrived.
Jiang Qiao asked her where she was, and Ye Qingqing said she was walking towards the villa.
So Jiang Qiao looked down from the French window and saw Ye Qingqing who had just got off the boat.
"Lu Xun, should I go downstairs to find Qingqing?" Jiang Qiao's emotions came and went quickly, and now he became heartless again.
Lu Xun felt his head hurt even more. He turned his head to say no, but said, "Take your phone and coat with you, and don't run around."
Jiang Qiao nodded heavily.
When we were going downstairs, the elevator door opened on the third floor. A young man dressed elegantly and hugged a hot woman entered the elevator. The strong smell of perfume instantly filled the elevator.
Jiang Qiao didn't like the smell very much, so he subconsciously took a few steps back. He looked up inadvertently and happened to meet the woman's gaze.
"Jiang Qiao!" The woman screamed in shock, almost questioning, "Why are you here!"
Yu Xiaoxiao.
After Jiang Qiao was surprised, she was amused when she heard Yu Xiaoxiao's angry questioning. She raised her eyebrows and said, "What does it have to do with you?"
"You!" Yu Xiaoxiao was obviously very angry, her pretty face turned red with anger, but she had to maintain her gentle and lovely image in front of the man, so she had to shut up angrily.
The young man suddenly said, "Ms. Jiang Qiao, right? I'm your fan."
The man's voice was frivolous, and there was not much respect in his words. He stretched out his hand while speaking, and his eyes were glued to Jiang Qiao's face without blinking.
Yu Xiaoxiao knew what the man's eyes meant. This was the new backer she had finally found. She panicked and hugged the man and acted coquettishly: "Mr. Wang......"
The Mr. Wang she was talking about ignored her and continued to stretch out his hand.
Jiang Qiao was annoyed by the explicit gaze and said coldly: "Oh."
Wang Er: “……………………”
The elevator door opened at this time. Jiang Qiao didn't care about the expressions of the two people and walked out directly without even looking at each other the whole time.
Jiang Xiaoqiao: I have paid too much for this family. There is nothing I can do about it. It’s because someone is a saw-mouthed gourd!
Mr. Lu had a blank expression: Oh.
