Chapter 108



After Qiao Qing separated from Jing Rui, he took out his cell phone and looked at the screen. The call with Zhang Qiyan had ended.

There was a gleam in her eyes. Afraid that Zhang Qiyan would think too much, she took out her phone and called him back.

"Hey, Senior."

Zhang Qiyan paced back and forth in the office thinking. He was worried that Qiao Qing might have run too fast and met with an accident. He could faintly hear some quarreling sounds on the phone.

After thinking about it, he hung up the phone, picked up his gray suit jacket, and walked a few steps outside.

I just remembered that I hadn't taken my car keys yet, so I came back and got them from the drawer.

Before he got into the elevator, Qiao Qing called him. His eyes were full of surprise and he quickly answered the call.

"Qiao Qiao, what happened to you just now? Nothing serious happened, right? I just heard you had an argument with someone."

A series of words, containing obvious concern and worry.

Qiao Qing smiled lightly and patiently comforted him, "I'm fine. I just had a small accident."

Looking forward, his mind was full of thoughts for a few seconds, and he said with a little embarrassment: "Senior, I may not have time to treat you to dinner today. Can we change the time and treat you to dinner next time when you have time?"

Zhang Qiyan is not very obsessed with one meal. Can't he eat it anytime?

He breathed a sigh of relief, and his tightly knitted brows relaxed. "It's nothing, as long as you're okay. There's no rush to treat me to a meal. I'm available anytime."

Although Zhang Qiyan said so, Qiao Qing still felt a little guilty.

He said a little depressed: "Senior, I'm sorry, we had already agreed on this, but I went back on my word like this."

There was a hint of guilt in his tone.

Zhang Qiyan couldn't help but chuckled and said, "It's really okay. If you really feel bad about it, how about you treat me to two meals?"

Qiao Qing smiled brightly, her pink lips slightly raised, "Okay, let's put it this way, I owe you two meals."

"good."

The two of them agreed happily, chatted for a while, and then hung up the phone.

Zhang Qiyan was busy with work and didn't have much time to make phone calls, but Qiao Qing naturally had important matters to attend to.

She put her cell phone in her pocket and patted her pocket, finding it empty.

I couldn't help but look at the ground, but my wallet was nowhere to be found.

There are ID cards, bank cards and other things in my wallet. It is very troublesome to replace them if I lose them.

Thinking of this, the smile on Qiao Qing's face suddenly disappeared. A hint of anxiety appeared on her delicate eyebrows and her pink lips were tightened into a line.

On this side, Jing Rui's idea was not just in his mind. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and immediately called Zhang Runyan.

However, no one answered the call for a long time.

I don’t know where this guy has gone. I can’t find him at the critical moment.

I made two calls but still couldn't get through, so I gave up and put the phone back in my pocket.

After walking a few steps, a pink wallet came into view on the road.

This wallet is very girly and you can tell it’s for girls at first glance.

Jing Rui stepped forward and picked up the wallet, his dark eyes scanning the surroundings.

It was already late at night, and there was no one on the trail, so no one knew who the owner of the item was.

He was not interested in the contents of the wallet, but considering that there might be contact information in it, he opened it and took a look.

There are bank cards and membership cards lined up inside, but the ID card is there.

I pulled out my ID card and saw a familiar face.

Isn't this the girl from before?

Before he could think more.

Suddenly, a strong force snatched the wallet from his hand.

The angry expression on Qiao Qing's fair and handsome face caught Jing Rui's eyes.

After she snatched the wallet, she saw the ID card in Jingrui's hand and snatched it away with force.

Before Qiao Qing could speak, Jing Rui sneered first. The ends of his slender eyes turned upward, and his cold voice carried a hint of mockery, "I don't know what kind of luck I have, I can see you twice today."

He crossed his arms and said calmly, "But it's just right. Since you've come here, I'll return this thing to its original owner."

Qiao Qing couldn't help but laugh. She was very angry about Jing Rui's attitude. She suppressed her anger and said sarcastically, "The property must be returned to its original owner. If I hadn't come here, I don't know if the things in the wallet would be there."

She crossed her arms like Jing Rui and said coldly, "If I hadn't discovered that my wallet was missing in time, I wouldn't have known that you were such a hypocritical person."

Jing Rui frowned slightly, his eyes stayed on Qiao Qing, and suddenly he looked a little cold. He said softly: "What do you mean?"

Qiao Qing was panicked for a moment, but she concealed it well. She smiled as brightly as a flower and asked, "What do I mean? You know what I mean."

Why are you pretending? Don't think you can do such things just because you are good-looking.

She glared at Jing Rui slightly, with such meaning in her eyes.

“Heh~”

Jing Rui suddenly curled his lips, with a hint of annoyance between his eyebrows, "So, you think I took the wallet?"

I really don’t like the word steal, but the meaning is quite clear.

Qiao Qing said as a matter of course: "What else? I just bumped into you, and then my wallet disappeared. It wasn't you, so could it be that my wallet flew away with wings?"

Her eyes fell on Jing Rui's hands. The lines of his wrists and the back of his hands were very beautiful. His hands looked as if they had been carefully maintained, with distinct joints and cold white skin.

While daydreaming, he joked, "It just happened to fly into your hand."

“It’s ridiculous.”

Jing Rui felt that the woman in front of him was being unreasonable and indiscriminate. He raised his wrist to check the time and saw that several minutes had passed.

Considering his salary, the few seconds he wasted on this meaningless argument are really not worth it.

And he was not at fault in this matter.

If he had known a few minutes earlier that he would be mistaken for a thief if he picked up a wallet, he would definitely take a detour the moment he saw the wallet!!!

Jing Rui remembered Qiao Qing again in his heart.

I plan to call Zhang Runyan later to tell him, is this the good school girl he mentioned???

Qiao Qing was so angry that she laughed, "What's so funny? You are the funny one. Don't think about letting this matter go hastily."

Her jade-like hand grasped Jing Rui's wrist, and her delicate and fair face was very serious, "Come with me to the police station and let the police uncle judge this matter."

Jing Rui raised his hand, his dark eyes looked at Qiao Qing like a sharp sword, then fell on Qiao Qing's hand and said coldly: "Let go."

Qiao Qing did not challenge Jing Rui's bottom line, and quickly let go of his hand. She smiled and said, "Are you afraid?"

"Hey, didn't you just look like you didn't do anything? Now you're scared."

"I'm afraid?"

Jing Rui took a step closer to Qiao Qing and looked down at her face. The distance between them suddenly shortened. Qiao Qing was caught off guard. Her thick and curly eyelashes suddenly trembled and she lowered her eyes slightly.

"Do you think I really took the wallet? Would I still stand here and reason with you?"

A trace of deep thought appeared on Qiao Qing's fair face, and then she quickly raised her face and said seriously, "In this case, we don't have to go to the police station. There are surveillance cameras here. You can see whether you are innocent or not by looking at the surveillance cameras."

Jing Rui turned his head and looked around, and saw a surveillance camera flashing red not far away. If not for this, he almost forgot that this was a high-end residential area with complete protection measures.

He nodded and said, "Okay."

His expression was calm, his eyes were deep, and he revealed no emotion at all.

Jing Rui, who has always been good at controlling his emotions, calmed down quickly even though he encountered strange things again and again today, and these things originated from the same person.

Qiao Qing looked around. She didn't know where the monitoring room was. After all, this was her first time moving here and she was not very familiar with the surroundings.

Standing there, there was a look of confusion between his delicate eyebrows.

"Are you still not leaving?"

Jing Rui took two steps forward and saw that Qiao Qing was not moving, so he had to turn back and ask.

Qiao Qing took two steps forward and came to Jing Rui. She bit her red lips and said, "I don't know where the monitoring room is."

This posture is a bit like a child who has done something wrong.

It was completely different from his previous stubborn and sharp-tongued look.

If Jing Rui had not come into contact with this woman, he might have really thought that she was naive and easy to deceive.

After getting to know her, what is so simple and easy to deceive? ? It must be her appearance that is deceptive.

No matter what he thought in his heart, Jing Rui's handsome face still had a cold look.

"Follow me."

Having lived here for so long, he is very familiar with the surroundings and naturally knows where the monitoring room is.

Qiao Qing was startled, and pursed her pink lips tightly, "I'm telling you, I've practiced Taekwondo. If you dare to do anything bad to me, I'll make you pay."

Jing Rui stopped, turned around, and moved slightly closer to Qiao Qing.

The tall body suddenly enveloped Qiao Qing's petite figure, carrying a strong scent of male hormones.

"What are you going to do?"

Qiao Qing was in a defensive posture, with a hint of panic on her fair and sweet face. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her nose, but her smooth forehead was covered by bangs, so there was nothing unusual to see.

Jing Rui smiled, his sharp face looked very pretty when he smiled, and asked back: "Are you scared now?"

No matter how Qiao Qing listened, he felt that this was a mockery.

However, Jing Rui took out his mobile phone from his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to Qiao Qing.

"Isn't your phone broken? You can call your friend and then follow me to the monitoring room."

Qiao Qing watched Jing Rui's actions quietly.

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke, "But I don't remember my friend's phone number."

Jing Rui didn't know what to say now.

He asked again, "What about your parents? You can't even remember their phone numbers."

“I remember this.”

Qiao Qing replied quickly.

"Then you beat your parents."

Qiao Qing: ???

After some trouble, the two finally arrived at the door of the monitoring room.

Considering that Jing Rui seemed very sincere, Qiao Qing returned the phone to Jing Rui.

When Jing Rui was wondering whether this woman had changed her personality.

Qiao Qing said proudly that there were cameras here, and if she disappeared, he would definitely not be able to escape responsibility.

Smiling smugly like a fox.
