Chapter 300
No one with good sense would smoke in the lounge, especially when someone is getting made up. The staff doesn't have the guts to do so. There is only one person who can do it so openly.
Jiang Qiao didn't say anything. Because the visitor was sitting next to her, the smell of cigarettes was even more pungent. She couldn't help but frown.
"Boss Tang, please stop smoking." Jiang Qiao pointed at the person without opening his eyes and said jokingly, "Smoking is harmful to your health, and second-hand smoke is even more harmful to your health."
Anyone who is slightly familiar with Jiang Qiao knows that she doesn't like the smell of cigarettes, not to mention Tang Hao, who has known her for nearly ten years.
Hearing this, Tang Hao not only did not stop, but smoked even harder, and the air was almost filled with a faint white smoke.
The boss must be doing this on purpose, the people who were secretly watching all thought at the same time.
Jiang Qiao's status in the company is no less than that of the boss Tang Hao. His dual identities as a "cash cow" and a long-time friend are unmatched by any other artist.
Tang Hao, who had always indulged and even doted on Jiang Qiao, actually ignored Jiang Qiao's words in front of everyone. This really made people think too much.
Did Jiang Qiao offend the boss? Was the boss angry because he failed to pursue her?
The smell of cigarettes became stronger and stronger. The makeup artist silently put on her mask. Zheng Min wanted to say something, but she didn't say it in the end.
Others didn't know what was going on, so how could she not know?
After silently guarding for so many years, I found out that the person I like already has a lover, and it was only a month. Who wouldn't be angry?
The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. Zheng Min sighed silently, walked to the side and pushed the window open as wide as possible, then winked at the makeup artist and the two assistants who were sorting out the dresses.
The group left and closed the door very carefully, leaving only two people in the lounge.
Tang Hao took a deep puff of his cigarette, then pressed the butt on the table to extinguish it, leaving a faint black mark on the white tabletop.
It was like a piece of white paper with an abrupt black mark drawn on it, which was extremely ugly. Jiang Qiao only took a glance and then looked away, looking at Tang Hao.
"What's wrong, Boss Tang? Who has offended you?"
Jiang Qiao was still smiling, the curve of her lips hadn't changed much, she was as bright and beautiful as ever, but something seemed to be different.
"I saw it." Tang Hao said without any context. Although he tried his best to cover it up, one could tell from his tense lips that he was in a bad mood.
"Is it your neighbor? The illegitimate son of the Sheng family?" Tang Hao thought it was ridiculous: "I felt something was wrong when he came to pick you up last time, and this time I saw him seeing you off again..."
They drove him downstairs of the company openly, as if it was a way of quietly asserting their sovereignty. The two stayed in the car for a long time before Jiang Qiao got out, waving at the man inside with a smile on his face.
That kind of smile was something Tang Hao had never seen before—it was delicate and soft, yet a little childish, and her whole body revealed dependence.
"Didn't you say that you and he are just neighbors?" Tang Hao held his breath: "It's only been a few days, and your neighbor has become your boyfriend?"
He had tried his best to control his tone and not sound too radical, but to Jiang Qiao it still sounded like a question, and the last question even had a hint of sarcasm.
The worrying thing finally happened. Jiang Qiao sighed silently. She thought Tang Hao was a smart man, but she didn't expect...
"At first he was indeed a neighbor, and now he is also my boyfriend." Jiang Qiao said objectively.
She was not angered by Tang Hao's tone and answered calmly, but Tang Hao could not accept it. He could hardly suppress the anger in his heart, and his heart was throbbing with pain: "Did he force you to do this?"
"no."
"That's him tricking you!"
"No."
Tang Hao obviously didn't believe it and wanted to continue talking, but Jiang Qiao sighed, interrupted him, and said, "He didn't force me, nor did he coax me. I took the initiative to ask him out, and I wanted to establish a romantic relationship with him."
"Lu Xun, he's fine."
Being straightforward and unequivocal in admitting your feelings means that you are the initiator of this relationship.
Tang Hao's slanderous words were choked back, stuck in his throat, and he felt uncomfortable with his throat being dry and even had difficulty breathing.
Facing the girl's clear eyes, Tang Hao was stung by the seriousness in her eyes.
It turns out that this is what Jiang Qiao is like when he likes someone. He will protect and defend someone, and will not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about him. He is not like his usual heartless self at all.
Tang Hao wanted to laugh, but couldn't. He pulled the corners of his mouth for a while before he spoke: "You don't understand Lu Xun......"
"Qiao Qiao, Lu Xun is not the right person for you." Tang Hao said.
Few people in the passionate love period like to hear such words, and Jiang Qiao is no exception. She regards Tang Hao as a friend, so when Tang Hao slanders Lu Xun, she will explain seriously. This does not mean that Tang Hao can continue to interfere with her decision.
"He likes me, and I like him. We are in love with each other. There is no such thing as suitability." Jiang Qiao looked at Tang Hao and said, "This is my decision."
"We have been friends for so many years, you should know my personality," Jiang Qiao spread his hands and laughed at himself: "I can't help it, I just can't listen to others——"
"I like you." Tang Hao interrupted her.
Jiang Qiao was stunned.
Tang Hao seemed to be pushed into a corner, almost risking everything: "Jiang Qiao, I like you."
Jiang Qiao, who has never cared about love between men and women, has someone he likes. He likes her so much that he even plans to make it public. This is just the beginning of his liking. After a long time, will he be unable to leave her forever?
This conclusion was hard for Tang Hao to accept. He was overwhelmed by the sense of crisis that he was about to lose something. Tang Hao knew that if he didn't do something, he would never have another chance.
"…………I know it may be hard for you to accept it for the time being. The time and place I mentioned were wrong, but I really mean it."
Tang Hao's expression was more serious than ever before, and his trembling eyelashes showed his uneasiness.
Silence spread in the air. I don't know how much time has passed. The light of expectation in his eyes gradually dimmed. He slowly lowered his head, unable to hide his sad expression.
Jiang Qiao spoke slowly, but he didn't reject him or comfort him. Instead, he said, "... maybe you don't really like me."
She had no right to judge other people's feelings, but if this feeling was directed at her, Jiang Qiao felt that she could still say something.
She didn't want to bear an emotional debt for no reason.
If you like someone, you can't help but get close to him and try to please him. This person is the only one in your eyes and heart. You're not like Tang Hao, who changes girlfriends like clothes.
