Chapter 190
The aunt in the kitchen looked at the many shrimps left in the pot: “…………………………”
I really don’t know how to put it, is this the interest of young lovers?
Never mind, let her eat it.
Jiang Qiao ate more than Lu Xun during the meal, and it was hard to tell that he had just had lunch.
Jiang Qiao collapsed on the sofa, holding her over-filled stomach. Seeing Lu Xun was about to go upstairs, she quickly asked, "Did you cause the Jiang family to go bankrupt?"
Lu Xun paused for a moment, as if he was a little surprised that she asked this question, but he answered honestly: "No."
He just intercepted a few of Jiang's projects. Other companies were eager to take sides and avoided Jiang. It was not his instigation, so strictly speaking, he did not directly cause the bankruptcy of the Jiang family.
Lu Xun's expression was frank, and Jiang Qiao didn't see anything wrong with it, so he reluctantly believed it: "Okay."
When Lu Xun came upstairs, she immediately went to the balcony and woke up the sleeping kitten: [Don’t sleep, something happened!]
[What's going on?! Who dares to pull my hair?!] 166 woke up with a start, saw who it was, and relaxed, letting himself lie flat on Jiang Qiao's hand like a big pancake: [What's going on? You had to wake me up...]
[The Jiang family went bankrupt.]
[If they go bankrupt, then they go bankrupt. Who hasn’t gone bankrupt before? What!] 166 suddenly jumped up and almost fell off Jiang Qiao’s hand. He managed to keep his balance and couldn’t believe it: [Jiang family? Jiang Dynasty? The second male lead?]
[Yes, you heard it right.] Jiang Qiao was forced to watch the cat's acrobatics and gave an affirmative answer with a blank expression.
166 is going crazy: [What about the heroine? ]
[I don’t know.] Jiang Qiao answered honestly: [I haven’t seen her for a long time.]
She was busy with her career, doing homework in her free time, and chatting with Lu Xun in her free time. How could she have time to care about these two people?
Not to mention Song Qingying, if Ye Qingqing hadn't told her, she probably wouldn't even know that the Jiang family went bankrupt.
[It’s over, it’s over… This plot has gone astray, there’s no hope…] 166’s little cat’s head drooped weakly, staring with a pair of lifeless cat eyes.
Jiang Qiao: [……………………]
Jiang Qiao comforted it: [It has already gone astray to the Atlantic Ocean. We have already defected anyway, so it has nothing to do with us no matter how distorted the plot is.]
[I just want to ask, why was Jiang Chao not wiped out? Did his system protect him as well?]
[How is that possible?] 166 rolled his eyes vividly: [Do you think everyone is as sincere and kind as me?!]
The advanced system regards human life as worthless and will even sacrifice the host's life to protect itself when necessary. How can it be as great and selfless as it is?
Jiang Qiao was speechless for a moment, unable to refute, so he gently stroked its little cat's head: [Yes, yes, you are the kindest, you are the kindest little cat in the world~]
166 was flattered by the praise, and the next second he heard Jiang Qiao's gentle voice asking: "Then kind little cat 166, can you tell me what's going on?"
166: [……………………]
166 pretended to be dead and said nothing.
Jiang Qiao rolled his eyes and put it back into the nest.
In fact, how Jiang Chao avoided being wiped out by the world consciousness had nothing to do with her, but for some reason, Jiang Qiao always had a bad premonition.
She couldn't explain it and could only attribute it to her sixth sense.
Upstairs, the man walked around the study and went straight to the bedroom. He stood in front of the dressing mirror in the bedroom and looked at his clothes from top to bottom.
Jiang Qiao seemed to like this style and stared at him all the way, but when he stood next to Jiang Qiao, he seemed much older than her...
Lu Xun pursed his lips, a little unsure for a moment, and after a while, he turned on his phone.
*
Gu Xing was busy arguing with a partner in the office. When his cell phone rang, he immediately found an excuse: "Oh, you see I'm very busy with my work. Let's talk about your matter later..."
"Mr. Gu, no... Mr. Gu, this is very simple, you see—"
"Bang!"
In the face of his partner's incredulous expression, he pushed the person out and then closed the door quickly and accurately.
Finally, his ears were quiet. Gu Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He was startled when he saw the note on his phone.
Lu Xun, the cold ice cube, contacted him on his own initiative. Was he coming to settle scores? He blamed him for saying that Jiang Qiao was going to get into trouble? No way, it was just a little joke, why was he so petty…
The phone was still ringing. Gu Xing had no time to think and quickly answered it. Before he could say anything,
Lu Xun's indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone: "Should I wear something casual or formal for my birthday?"
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
Gu Xing was confused: "Ah?"
Lu Xun repeated it calmly.
Gu Xing finally confirmed that he was not deaf and heard it wrongly. He swallowed his saliva and said carefully: "It's your birthday. Do you need me to give you a birthday present?"
Lu Xun: “……………………”
Lu Xun: “It’s not me.”
"It's not you, it's......" Gu Xing suddenly realized: "Is it Jiang Qiao's birthday?"
He said excitedly: "When? Where? Have you chosen the venue? Are you ready for the surprise? I will go pick out gifts for my sister-in-law today. What do girls like......"
Gu Xing said a lot of gibberish, and finally realized that there was no movement from the other end. He glanced at his phone and found that Lu Xun had hung up on him.
Gu Xing: “…………………………”
As expected of Lu Xun, familiar taste, familiar recipe, still so cold and ruthless,
Gu Xing felt relieved. It was still his brother Xun and he had not been replaced by the aliens. He called again skillfully and waited for more than ten seconds. The other party seemed impatient, but he still picked up the phone.
Downstairs, Jiang Qiao collapsed on the sofa and read a history book for a while. He still felt a little bloated, so he started to walk back and forth in the living room.
The sweeping robot bumped into her feet from time to time, and then bumped into her feet again. Jiang Qiao simply walked to the stairs and began to climb them "thump thump thump".
She climbed up, then down, back and forth, and the whole villa was filled with the sound of her climbing the stairs.
Lu Xun put on his clothes as Gu Xing suggested. His short black hair had just been blow-dried and was now loosely falling down.
"Like this?" Lu Xun frowned and looked at himself in the mirror, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Gu Xing saw it through the video on his phone and immediately clapped his hands excitedly: "Yes, that's it!"
Isn't this a cool and intelligent man? ! Full of youthfulness!
Gu Xing remembered that Lu Xun mentioned that he and Jiang Qiao knew each other in high school. It seems that Lu Xun looked like this at that time.
The feeling of first love is here!
Lu Xun still couldn't get used to this outfit. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a rhythmic "thump thump thump" sound coming from far away, then from near to far.
Lu Xun: “……………………”
What is Jiang Qiao doing?
He pinched his eyebrows, opened the door with a frown, and just happened to meet Jiang Qiao's eyes as he walked up the stairs.
Mr. Lu, how come this isn't considered seduction? Hehehe~
