169. Chapter 169



Chapter 169

Outside the resort is the old town of Haicheng, which has beautiful scenery. After dinner, Jiang Qiao took Lu Xun out.

Thinking of what everyone at the table was saying, she tilted her head and asked, "Did you ask someone to go to the hospital to scare Wang Er?"

Lu Xun frowned, a little unhappy: "Don't mention other people's names."

Jiang Qiao: “……………………” Small-minded.

"I just asked Wang Jie to send him something." Lu Xun said in a light tone.

Jiang Qiao was curious: "What is it?"

"The cash flow statement of Wang's company."

Jiang Qiao: “……………………”

Lu Xun's expression did not change when he said this, as if it was as simple as eating and drinking water, which made Jiang Qiao almost mistakenly believe that cash flow was something that was easy to obtain.

But can this thing be found easily? !

It is easy to imagine that for a nouveau riche like Wang Erjia, the company's cash flow statement must be open to the public and hidden behind the scenes.

And the one that Lu Xun had someone send over must be the one that the Wang family had hidden and didn't want anyone to find.

"Does this... count as an economic crime?"

Unauthorized access to other companies' financial statements or something like that, this doesn't sound right, Jiang Qiao said with some concern.

Lu Xun raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and asked in an inexplicable tone: "Are you very interested in this?"

Why did he suddenly become interested in this topic? Jiang Qiao looked puzzled: "Huh?"

Lu Xun nodded to himself: "That's good. You can study law or finance in college."

Jiang Qiao: “……………………”

Okay, okay, wait for her here?!

She decided not to talk to Lu Xun for another minute.

Half a minute later, at the corner, Jiang Qiao saw a familiar tall figure. It was Liu Lin. Next to him, half a meter away, stood a girl.

The girl turned her head and said something. Jiang Qiao saw her face clearly and was a little surprised: "Xiao Liu?!"

In the old city of Haicheng, the walls and houses are uneven, and all kinds of cartoon characters are painted on the walls along the way.

The four of them were walking on this comic-like road, and their moods became better.

Xiao Liu was very happy: "I didn't expect to meet Sister Xiao Qiao here, what a coincidence!"

Jiang Qiao had no way to refute it. It was such a coincidence. She hadn't expected that Xiao Liu was actually the eldest daughter of the Liu family in Haicheng. She had kept it a secret without revealing a single detail.

"Yes, what a coincidence. When I saw you just now, I thought I was seeing things." Jiang Qiao said with a smile.

Xiao Liu was a little embarrassed: "Sister Xiao Qiao, you won't blame me, right? I didn't hide my identity on purpose. I just thought it wasn't a big deal..."

Her pretty face was full of innocence, and her thoughts were all exposed, making it easy for people to see her guilt.

Jiang Qiao burst out laughing: "How could it be......"

She was just a little surprised, and had no other thoughts. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and she did not tell Xiao Liu about Lu Xun.

Jiang Qiao thought that he and Xiao Liu were just ordinary friends, so there was no need to know each other's intricacies.

Xiao Liu was obviously relieved, a smile returned to his face, and he started talking about the gossip he had heard recently.

"Ms. Jiang has a good personality." Liu Lin chuckled and said to the man beside him, "Mr. Lu, you have a good eye."

It was clearly a normal compliment, the attitude was correct, and the words were within the appropriate range, but Lu Xun inexplicably felt uncomfortable.

He frowned imperceptibly and said politely, "Thank you."

The man agreed directly, without any modesty. Under the sunshine, the smile on Liu Lin's face seemed to become even more intense.

Jiang Qiao turned around and saw Liu Lin smiling. His calm black eyes were like moistened gemstones. The strange yet familiar feeling made her stunned for a second.

After realizing it, Jiang Qiao immediately looked away. For some reason, it seemed like he was trying to cover up something,

Lu Xun pursed his lips and his expression turned completely cold.

Jiang Qiao didn't notice his change and continued to talk to Xiao Liu. When it was almost noon, Liu Lin suggested that they have lunch together.

Lu Xun said, "Sorry, we have something else to do, so we won't be dining with Mr. Liu and Miss Liu."

Jiang Qiao swallowed back the words he wanted to agree to, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he still said: "Ah, yes, we still have things to do."

Liu Lin looked at the two people and chuckled, "Then I won't bother you anymore."

Xiao Liu felt regretful, blinked her big eyes and whispered softly: "Sister Xiao Qiao, let's have dinner together tonight, bye."

"Bye-Bye………"

After the two walked away, Jiang Qiao finally couldn't help but asked, "What's going on with us?"

Lu Xun didn't say anything, staring at her for a while, his dark eyes seemed to see into the depths of her soul. Jiang Qiao was frightened by his gaze: "What, what's wrong?"

Lu Xun didn't say anything for a long while before pursing his lips and said, "It's okay."

Jiang Qiao: “?”

Why are you looking at her like that for no reason? It's scary.

"So what are we having for lunch?" Jiang Qiao was heartless and quickly figured out what to eat. He asked excitedly, "Lu Xun, have you ever tried sea cucumber rice? It's delicious."

Sea sausage rice is a specialty of Haicheng.

Lu Xun's eyes turned colder, and his voice was emotionless: "No."

When Jiang Qiao heard that he had never eaten it, he immediately made a decision: "Then let's go eat this!"

If she thought something was delicious, she would definitely let Lu Xun have a taste.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xun said coldly: "No."

Jiang Qiao interrupted his enthusiastic recommendation and advised: "Try it once, you will definitely find it delicious!"

The girl's eager expression was reflected in the man's eyes. She tried her best to persuade him, using a very classic rhetoric - "Try it once, and then this and that will happen..."

Lu Xun suddenly laughed lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes. He spoke word by word, "I don't like trying new things."

It seems to be just saying "sea intestine with rice", but it also seems to be hinting at something.

Jiang Qiao frowned, suppressed his temper, and softened his voice: "What do you want to eat? Why don't we go back to the resort to eat."

"Why are you so reluctant?" Lu Xun said with a half-smile, "Eat whatever you want. Would I let you starve?"

At the end of the conversation, Jiang Qiao could almost hear the icy edge in the man's tone, which made her angry: "Lu Xun, are you energetic?"

The girl said something a little bit angry, and the air seemed to be quiet as soon as she finished speaking.

She didn't know if it was Jiang Qiao's illusion, but she felt that Lu Xun's face looked a little pale.

The silent atmosphere made both of them feel suffocated. Jiang Qiao couldn't tell what he felt. He felt his eyes were a little sore and turned his head away.

Lu Xun looked at the girl's red eyes for a while, then slowly said, "Sorry..."

Lu Gou is sick again.
