Chapter 59
There is only one direct elevator to the sky garden, but fortunately the space is large enough to accommodate everyone in the group.
After entering the elevator, Jiang Qiao stood stiffly in front of it, staring at the elevator door. Through the reflective elevator door, he met the dark eyes of the man behind him. Jiang Qiao's heart skipped a beat and he lowered his head in a hurry.
It was only one minute, but it seemed to last unusually long. With a "ding" sound, the elevator stabilized. As soon as the elevator door slowly opened, Jiang Qiao walked out quickly. Julie whispered behind him, "Qiao Qiao, wait for me..."
Jiang Qiao stopped only when he could no longer see Lu Xun.
Julie patted her chest lightly and said in fear: "That was the leader who came to inspect just now. He was so imposing. I didn't even dare to breathe."
“…………It should be.”
"Also, did you see that? The young man in the middle is really tall and handsome! But he has a cold face, which makes him a little scary." Julie sighed.
“That’s the president of Guonan.”
“………………” Julie was confused: “What?”
President of Guonan?
The one who was rumored to have bankrupted Li Liang's company? The one who risked his life for Jiang Qiao?
Julie wanted to ask, why did you two pretend not to know each other just now? Were you afraid of bad influence?
Jiang Qiao saw her doubts and said helplessly: "I told you long ago that he and I are not that kind of relationship. Whatever he does must be for the development of the company. That's why he doesn't think highly of me..."
At the end of the conversation, Jiang Qiao felt a little disappointed.
It's really sad that the roles have been reversed.
"…You are very beautiful." Julie couldn't bear to hear her self-deprecating words, and said, "So what if he is President Guonan? He is cold and emotionless. It is obvious that he has no emotions and can't love. You should still fall in love with interesting people."
Jiang Qiao didn't say anything in response to her speech, but just smiled.
Lu Xun doesn't know how to love and is boring?
Jiang Qiao thought, as a party involved, no one had more say than her, and no one was a better person than Lu Xun.
The Sky Garden must have been built not long ago, and most of the flowers introduced are rare and valuable. In the midsummer, the flowers are in full bloom. Staying in it for a while, it's as if you're marinated in the fragrance of the flowers.
Jiang Qiao's legs hurt, and he was afraid of meeting someone again. He sat on the swing and didn't move around.
Twenty minutes later, she thought the group should have left, so she told Julie that she wanted to go downstairs to her room to rest.
Julie was enjoying taking photos. She exclaimed, "Ah!" and asked, "You're leaving now?"
Jiang Qiao could see her reluctance: "You don't have to follow me. You can go home and rest after playing."
"Yeah! Long live Jojo!"
After getting off the elevator, Jiang Qiao originally planned to go back to the room directly, but he felt a little bored and his stomach was empty, so he decided to go out for a midnight snack.
There are many restaurants near the five-star hotel, each one more upscale than the other, with bright lights. Jiang Qiao glanced at his large T-shirt and loose trousers.
It’s better not to go in and embarrass yourself.
The night wind blows on people's skin with a slight heat, giving an inexplicable sense of real life, making people's hearts calm down. It seems like it would be nice to walk like this for a while.
Seeing something, Jiang Qiao suddenly stopped.
Under the dim street lights, a black Maybach was parked quietly on the side of the road. The license plate number was Beijing A888, which was easy to remember. Jiang Qiao had just seen it last time and remembered this license plate number.
The car door opened, Jiang Qiao unconsciously clenched his fingers, staring at the person getting out of the driver's seat. The next moment, his tightly clenched fingers suddenly loosened.
It was the special assistant Wang who was beside Lu Xun.
Wang Jie was holding a brown kraft paper bag in his hand and walked up to her with a clear purpose: "Miss Jiang, this is your stuff. Mr. Lu asked me to bring it to you."
Her...what?
Jiang Qiao saw the clean lunch box inside and was silent for a while before taking it and saying, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Wang Jie's smile was perfect and impeccable, and he said sincerely, "Miss Jiang's cooking must be delicious."
Jiang Qiao: “?”
"Mr. Lu finished eating everything, leaving nothing behind. He even washed the lunch boxes himself."
“……………………”
After Wang Jie left, Jiang Qiao still hadn't reacted. He stood there in a daze, holding the black paper bag tighter and tighter.
The black Maybach started slowly. The interior was completely silent except for the slight sound of the car starting up.
In the dim back seat, the man slowly withdrew his gaze from the rearview mirror until he could no longer see the girl. He said in a low voice, "What did you say?"
Jiang Qiao couldn't hide the truth on her face, so Lu Xun naturally saw what Wang Jie said, and then the girl's sudden shocked expression.
"No, I said you were in the car." Wang Jie looked straight ahead with a slightly tense expression, not daring to look back.
After a while, the person behind him spoke up: "Watch your mouth."
"Yeah." Lu Xun didn't pursue the matter any further and Wang Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
A car drove past her, bringing up a gust of wind, and Jiang Qiao came to her senses. She walked back along the way she came, bought a pancake on the roadside, and ate it while walking.
While eating, she suddenly stopped, wiped her tears vigorously, and said without any context: "Do you think he did it on purpose?"
Give a sweet date after a beating, this is how you train a dog.
Does she look like some kind of bitch?
166 almost wanted to roll his eyes: [I don’t understand what you are talking about.]
[Don’t you think he’s weird now? On the surface, he ignores me and is as cold as a thousand-year-old ice cube, but behind my back he changes my agent and secretly eats up all the food I cook…]
166 I don’t know why, but I suddenly felt like I was showing off.
Before he could figure out where this strange feeling came from, Jiang Qiao's next sentence made him understand.
[I think he still has a little bit of love for me in his heart.]
166: […………………………]
Jiang Qiao is like a tenacious little grass. Give her some sunshine and she will bloom. Give her some water and she will be revived.
[He has helped me so many times, I have to thank him, right?]
166 Tired: [……………What do you want to do now]
Jiang Qiao did not answer, but his eyes were shining like broken diamonds.
The next day, a popular female idol appeared on the show and was assigned to the same team as Jiang Qiao.
During the lunch break, she suddenly came over and looked around. Seeing that there was no video camera, she frowned and asked, "Are you Jiang Qiao?"
We had been recording a show together for the whole morning, but he still asked my name, made small talk, and acted pretentiously.
Jiang Qiao continued eating and said naturally, "I'm not."
Female idol: “……………………”
"Why are you pretending? Now you're not admitting it. Do you think I'm as easy to fool as Xiaoxiao?!"
It turns out that he came for Yu Xiaoxiao.
Thinking about it carefully, she seemed to have not seen Yu Xiaoxiao for a long time after Li Liang's downfall.
"What's wrong with her?" Jiang Qiao asked casually.
