Chapter 188
"Once people have money, their mindset changes. Gender doesn't matter. It's all just for the sake of novelty. There's no such thing as true love."
Ye Qingqing's tone was matter-of-fact, with a bit of naive disdain that seemed to see through the rules. Jiang Qiao suddenly felt that she was a little strange.
Ye Qingqing used to say whatever she wanted to say, but now she has learned to beat around the bush.
"You are being realistic." Jiang Qiao smiled, but said, "But please believe that there is always a small number of people who are different."
"This small group of people refers to your Lu Xun?" Ye Qingqing blinked and said in a teasing tone.
Jiang Qiao said seriously: "It is all those who can stick to their original aspirations."
Perhaps most people are just like what Ye Qingqing described, playing around and being unrestrained, but there are always a small number of people who stick to their principles.
Jiang Qiao's expression was too serious. Ye Qingqing stared at her for a while, then suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, let's not discuss this. You helped our Ye's company, so I'll treat you to a meal."
She knew that Jiang Qiao didn't release the video because he was concerned that her company's reputation would be damaged.
"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Jiang Qiao changed the subject.
Ye Qingqing said she wanted to drink mutton soup. Jiang Qiao was surprised: "Don't you dislike this kind of strong smell?"
Jiang Qiao didn't care, but Ye Qingqing used to want to vomit when she smelled mutton.
Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Ye Qingqing asked in confusion: "Really? I don't like drinking?"
Jiang Qiao was even more puzzled. Just as he was about to say something,
Ye Qingqing shook her head and said, "Forget it, forget it, then I won't drink this."
Finally, they chose a nearby hot pot restaurant. Although Jiang Qiao still felt a little weird, he didn't think much about it.
People's tastes change as they grow up, just like she didn't like the cream on top of cake before, but now she likes it.
In the hot pot restaurant's special box, Ye Qingqing fished out the scalded mutton rolls and said, "By the way, the Jiang family filed for bankruptcy. Have you heard about this?"
Jiang Qiao was a little surprised: "Jiang Chao?"
"Yes, there is only one Jiang family in City A."
Jiang Qiao frowned. This was something she had not expected. In the novel, the Jiang family had always been doing well under Jiang Chao. How come they suddenly went bankrupt?
Is this a punishment for Jiang Chao for not completing the task?
This punishment is too light. She was almost wiped out. If it weren't for 166's help, she would have died long ago.
How come when it came to Jiang Chao's turn, he just went bankrupt so easily?
The more Jiang Qiao thought about it, the weirder it felt. He poked the dipping sauce bowl in front of him unconsciously with his chopsticks. It was only after Ye Qingqing called him several times that he came to his senses: "What's wrong?"
"I wanted to ask you what's wrong with you. Why are you in a daze?" Ye Qingqing was speechless.
"Nothing, just a little unexpected." Jiang Qiao said calmly: "Why did you suddenly file for bankruptcy?"
"You'll have to ask your Mr. Lu about this." Ye Qingqing said vaguely.
What does this have to do with Lu Xun? Jiang Qiao wanted to ask more, but Ye Qingqing interrupted her and said, "Eat quickly, the tripe is overcooked!"
Jiang Qiao: “…………………………”
Jiang Qiao had no choice but to eat a few pieces of overcooked tripe, which was quite chewy.
At Jiang's Group, the place where the employees originally worked had been cleaned up, and the entire floor was quiet. After the bank staff had taken inventory of the company inside and outside, they handed a document to the man and said, "Mr. Jiang, just sign it."
Jiang Chao's face was warm, without any trace of the sadness of bankruptcy. He signed his name gracefully and said self-deprecatingly, "No need to call me President Jiang."
The bank staff was very considerate and did not neglect him. Instead, he smiled and said respectfully, "Director Jiang, please take care of me in the future."
Jiang Chao's smile remained unchanged: "Take care of each other."
The bank staff was still trying to get closer when a cute female voice came from not far away: "Brother Jiang, are you done? Let's go eat together."
Hearing this female voice, several bank staff members immediately smiled like flowers and greeted enthusiastically.
"Hello, Miss,"
"Miss......"
The pretty woman naturally took the man's arm and nodded to the bank staff: "Well, go and do your work."
After everyone left, Jiang Chao patted the woman's hand and said, "Miao Miao, why are you here?"
Peng Miao said coquettishly: "Why, you don't welcome me?"
"No, I'm afraid you're too tired. I can go straight to you for lunch."
Jiang Chao's tone was gentle and considerate, and his jade-like face looked even more refreshing. Peng Miao couldn't help but blush: "As long as I can see you, I won't feel tired at all..."
The first time Peng Miao saw Jiang Chao was at a Jiang family dinner. At that time, Jiang Chao had just been taken back to the Jiang family. Standing under the spotlight, he smiled slightly, like the warm sunshine in spring, which immediately made her heart beat faster.
At that time, her father was not yet the president of the bank, but only a deputy director of the Credit Review Department. She could only secretly like Jiang Chao.
Later, her father became the president of the bank, and her status rose. She mustered up the courage to talk to Jiang Chao. Jiang Chao was as gentle and polite as she had imagined, and even his tone was gentle when he rejected her.
Peng Miao thought she would never get close to Jiang Chao again, but a week ago, she saw Jiang Chao at a dinner with friends.
So the thought of extinguishing it suddenly came back to her mind. This time Jiang Chao did not reject her, but agreed to give it a try.
They had just been dating for two days and Jiang Chao was always silent. When asked, he just said it was nothing. Peng Miao asked someone to check and found out that the Jiang family was going bankrupt.
She was about to ask her father to help the Jiang family, but Jiang Chao stopped her and told her not to do so, saying that he was not with her for money.
His frank attitude completely won Peng Miao's heart and made Peng's father very satisfied with him. He immediately arranged a position of director for him and promised that as long as the two got married, all the things in the Peng family would be given to Peng Miao.
The woman was very close, with a completely dependent attitude. Jiang Chao hid the cold light in his eyes, and his face was still gentle and elegant. He smiled and said, "You like to eat at the Western restaurant in the northwest district. I'll ask someone to reserve a table."
Peng Miao's face turned even redder when he heard this. Brother Jiang actually remembered this.
Thinking of this, the love in her eyes almost overflowed: "Well, okay..."

Meanwhile, Jiang Qiao had just come out of hot pot and was adjusting his mask and hat when he saw Lu Xun standing under the sycamore tree.
The man was wearing a serious and elegant grey suit, as if he had just come out of a business banquet. His short black hair was sprayed with hairspray, giving him the image of a mature and steady boss. People passing by looked at him secretly, and the rate of turning back was 100%.
Jiang Qiao's eyes lit up, and just as he was about to tell Ye Qingqing that she didn't need to see him off, he saw Ye Qingqing had already slid away, looking like a mouse seeing a cat.
Jiang Qiao couldn't help laughing, trotting over, hugging the man in a big bear hug, and teasingly asked, "Boss Lu, where did you sneak out from?"
Small theater:
Mr. Lu: Well, that’s good. Let me out.
Author: I'll let you out to ask for votes and rewards, please do it quickly!
Mr. Lu: …………………
